Although 'BTCT' was the ticker assigned at the deployment of the Bitcoin Token token's smart contract, it is in use by another asset that has a larger market presence and higher trading volume on major exchanges. Due to this association and to avoid confusion in the marketplace, the alternative ticker 'BTCTOKEN' has been adopted for this token. This designation is specifically used to ensure that assets are distinctly identified.

Bitcoin Token is an open-source crypto-currency designed to focus on fast transactions with low fees & environmental footprint. It utilizes a custom Proof of Stake protocol for securing its network. The goal of Bitcoin Token is to achieve a decentralized sustainable cryptocurrency with near-instant transactions.
