I wrote cratetorrent, a BitTorrent engine in Rust!
Wow! This is great. I wish someone would breathe some life into the related project hypercore-rs. It’s kind of like a more modern bittorrent-like-protocol with some cool features (updatable torrents, low latency, nested torrents). Currently the main implementation is in JS and it would be nice to see some action on the Rust implementation

Transmission v4.0
Actually, not such a bad question. There's at least Synapse[1]. It even has a third-part broker to accept transmission GUIs by Drew Dewalt[2]. Why didn't they just reuse Transmission protocol from the get-go, to leverage the great Transmission-Remote-GUI[3] for example, is beyond me.
Unfortunately, there's just not enough interest in the project and no adoptance.
Transmission, at least previously, never have been too resource-friendly, so a lean and mean Rust alternative would be great.

I created a bittorrent client in Rust
There's Synapse which has been around for a few years now.

Could you compare it to https://github.com/Luminarys/synapse ?
What are some alternatives?
When comparing hypercore and synapse you can also consider the following projects:
cratetorrent - A BitTorrent V1 engine library for Rust (and currently Linux)
y-crdt - Rust port of Yjs
herb - CLI BitTorrent client
flumedb-rs
rqbit - A bittorrent client in Rust
