Hungarian police are raiding BitTorrent trackers hosted in the country. While raids against torrent sites are not uncommon, the current legal operations conducted by Hungarian authorities seem to be targeting multiple sites at once. As TorrentFreak reports, a number of Hungary based BitTorrent sites have gone down and this includes several well known private trackers such as nCore, GigaTorrent, BD (Blue Dragon) and PirateDay. So, does this mean it’s game over for the Hungarian BT scene? We don’t think so. While a number of sites have indeed been forced offline, quite a few Hungarian trackers still operate without interruptions. This includes some of the larger private trackers such as PREtorians and Carpathians. If you are looking for Hungary based torrent sites to join, listed below are 5 such trackers all of which currently have open registrations.

Of course, these are not the only Hungarian sites that have survived the police raids. There are numerous others that are around (most invite only) and if you know any good similar trackers that currently have open registrations, feel free to share them with us via a comment.
