BitTorrent Chain was originally launched and developed in 2001 by Bram Cohen and David Harrison to create the largest peer-to-peer platform for sharing data and files. The developer duo ran the network for nearly two decades before Justin Sun decided to acquire BitTorrent Chain through TRON Foundation.
This token is mapped from the TRON network and used as the native token on BTTC Mainnet. The number shown on the current page does not indicate the actual amount of its circulating supply. The actual amount is subject to the number in the deposit contract on the TRON network.
About BitTorrent [New]
What Is BitTorrent (BTT)?
BitTorrent is a popular peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing and torrent platform which has become increasingly decentralized in recent years.
Originally released in July 2001, BitTorrent was purchased by blockchain platform TRON in July 2018.
Since its acquisition, BitTorrent has added various new tools, with a dedicated native cryptocurrency token, BTT, released in February 2019. BTT was launched on TRON’s own blockchain, using its TRC-10 standard.
According to its official literature, BitTorrent is currently the “largest decentralized P2P communications protocol” in the world.
