View ChartBitTorrent [New] (BTT) is a utility token designed to power the world's largest decentralized file-sharing protocol, incentivizing network participants for sharing bandwidth and storage resources. It revitalizes the classic BitTorrent protocol by adding economic incentives for file sharing and network participation.
BTT is the native utility token of the BitTorrent ecosystem, built on the TRON blockchain and its scaling solution, BitTorrent Chain (BTTC). It incentivizes users to share their bandwidth and storage, aiming to create a faster, more efficient decentralized content delivery network. The token is used for payments within the ecosystem, including for faster download speeds and rewards for seeders. BTT is also used for staking, incentives and on-chain payments on the BTTC network, where validator nodes must stake BTT to participate in consensus. BTT operates on a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism via the TRON network.
BTT is a TRC-20 utility token (originally issued as TRC-10). In December 2021, alongside the BitTorrent Chain launch, a 1:1000 redenomination raised the total supply from 990 billion to 990 trillion; legacy tokens were renamed BTTOLD.

Bram Cohen designed the BitTorrent protocol in April 2001, and it was first released in July 2001. The BTT token was introduced by the TRON Foundation and BitTorrent Foundation, with an ICO in January 2019 and the token released on TRON's blockchain in February 2019. According to the project's existing overview, development and ecosystem growth are overseen by the decentralized BitTorrent DAO. The project aims to integrate blockchain technology into the existing peer-to-peer network, creating a tokenized economy around file sharing.
BTT functions as the economic layer on top of the BitTorrent protocol. It uses smart contracts on the TRON blockchain and its scaling solution, BTTC, to facilitate transactions.
BTT's primary value proposition lies in its massive existing user base and practical use case.
BTT serves as the payment and reward medium within the BitTorrent universe.
The BTT ecosystem is continuously expanding beyond its core file-sharing roots.
BTT is not mined in the traditional Proof-of-Work sense. As a token on a DPoS blockchain, new BTT is minted through block production and distributed as rewards.
