Dear Community,

At 20:00 (SGT) on March 19, 2021, STP 5: Maya Proposal to Stop the New Issuance of BTCST has passed community vote. The Standard Hashrate Group appreciates the community’s overwhelming support of the proposal.

Effective immediately, there will be no more issuance of BTCST. The combined total circulation of BTCST in both BEP20 and TRC20 will be hard capped at 15 million.

This hard cap on BTCST’s total circulation is an instrumental step to ensure optimal implementation of τ , a protocol to synthesize proof-of-work assets. BTCST will continue to be the benchmark asset protocol to bring Bitcoin hashrate asset to DeFi and transform the Bitcoin and DeFi landscapes with τAssets.

Community voting proposals are an important part of the BTCST ecosystem governance. The BTCST team takes into consideration the opinions of every community member. We sincerely thank you for your continued support of the BTCST ecosystem and your active participation in the proposals of the BTCST community. If you have any questions or ideas regarding the BTCST ecosystem and development, you can leave your feedback through the Telegram community channel via this link: https://t.me/BTCST_Community_EN.
