On February 24, 2021, the BTCST Community concluded the voting on STP-4 Redenomination Proposal with an agreement to implement a 1:10 redenomination.
After consultation with our commercial partners and mining members, the Standard Hashrate Group is now announcing our planned upgrade to BTCST’s smart contract next week, the week of March 15, to effectuate the 1:10 redenomination across the multiple partnered exchanges and wallets.
While the smart contract upgrade itself takes a few minutes only, we expect that it can take up to 4 days for all of our commercial partners to fully implement the redenomination. …

Entering 2021, the whole industry witnessed a huge Bitcoin price increase that brought a more positive and bullish attitude towards the market among investors. Subsequently, it has attracted unprecedented attention in the field of BTC computing power mining. Additionally, the rapid development of the DeFi sector and BSC (Binance Smart Chain) ecosystem will accelerate the process of driving BTCST to the top of the market.
BTCST is collateralized by 0.1 TH/s of real-world Bitcoin mining power, which is historically proven to be positively correlated to the performance of the digital gold, and hence the value of BTCST climbs along with…
Dear BTCST Community,
STP 3 — Gas Fee Optimization is now complete. Users of our dApp should experience up to 60% reduction in gas fee when un-staking BTCSTs or claiming BTC from the dApp.
In addition, our users no longer need to combine many staking transactions into one in order to reduce the number of staking records. The smart contract now optimizes this step for our users as well.
We thank you for your understanding during the upgrade. If you have any further questions or suggestions, please join our Telegram community at https://t.me/BTCST_Community_EN

Dear BTCST Community,
We are aware that some of you are facing “unpredictable gas limit” issues or high gas fees when attempting to unstake or claim BTC rewards. After investigation, we are able to confirm that these issues occur when a user has too many staking transactions.
As an example, if a user stakes 10 times on day 1, then keeps staking for 10 days, a total of 100 computational steps must be performed when unstaking or claiming BTC. This would cause very high fees, or, in extreme cases, “unpredictable gas limit” errors.
To solve this, our engineers will upgrade…
Dear BTCST Community,
We are excited to announce that our Snapshot governance site is now live. Here are notes on what’s to come.
- Snapshot is a governance-by-vote toolkit commonly used by DeFi communities. By connecting your wallet to Snapshot (as you do with other dApps), you can vote on active proposals based on how many relevant project tokens you have.
- Ordinarily, this would mean that you have to hold project tokens in your wallet address at the Snapshot time when the votes are counted. That wouldn’t work in our case, for that would mean our most loyal staking holders would…
