Consider a new peer Alice that joins BitTorrent without possessing any chunks. Without any chunks, she cannot become a top-four uploader for any of the other peers, since she has nothing to upload. How then will Alice get her first chunk?

    Answer:She will be selected by "Optimistic Unchoking".

    Explanation:BitTorrent is a communication protocol for peer-to-peer file sharing (P2P) it is used to distribute data and electronic files over the Internet.

    Optimistic unchoking is an important factor in BitTorrent peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing networks, with optimistic unchocking there is always one peer that is unchocked.

    BitTorrent Peers use optimistic unchoking to find the upload bandwidth details concerning other peers.

    However, free users have been known to also make use of optimistic unchoking and download from the network without uploading anything.
