BitTorrent (BTT) the TRC-10 token has been promoted heavily by Tron since its inception with the token displaying mix results so far. The coin has failed to push on an extended bullish run in 2019 despite the hype from eccentric CEO Justin Sun.
Despite this TRON has continued to push updates for the cryptocurrency with Sun announcing the launch of a BTT wallet and token on BitTorrent and uTorrent by the end of the second quarter. Tron made waves in 2018 when it purchased BitTorrent for around $140 million.
BitTorrent is the leading torrent platform in the world with over 1 million active users who use the platform to transfer data and information. Tron has tried to utilize the popularity of the platform to promote their native token TRX and BTT.
The blockchain platform recently completed its fourth-round airdrop of BTT for Tron (TRX) holders which is a ploy to promote the use of the token within the Tron community.
The airdrop which occurred on May 11 was announced on BitTorrent official twitter account with the next one scheduled for June 11.
BitTorrent (BTT) Makes Double Digits Gains in The Last 24 Hours Of Trading
BitTorrent (BTT) is currently priced at $0.000741 per unit and gained 14% in the last 24 hours of trading with its trading volume during this period at $44,786,702. The 47 ranked coin has a total market cap of above $151 million.
Its recent increase in value could be attributed to the ripple effect of the rise in Bitcoin which currently sits above the $7,000 mark. The airdrop some days back had an effect on the coin in the short term as this brings increased activities on its blockchain.
BitTorrent (BTT) continues to receive massive support from Tron and with massive developments scheduled at different points of the Q2 the coin could finally show its promise.
Sun has always reiterated his belief that BTT would enter the top 30 coins by Q2. It remains to be seen if the coin can make this step as the market seems to have recovered and several altcoins are making steady gains in price.
