BitTorrent, which was originally launched in July 2001, was acquired by the TRON blockchain platform in July 2018.

BTT was launched on TRON's own blockchain, using its TRC-10 standard.
Do you know BitTorrent crypto?
BTT is BitTorrent's native cryptocurrency, issued on the TRON blockchain as a TRC-10 standard token. The total supply, as stated in its whitepaper, is 990,000,000,000 BTT. 6% of that total was available in a public token sale, 2% in a private token sale, and 9% in an initial sale.
The primary function of BitTorrent (BTT) is to act as a cryptocurrency that facilitates transactions within the BitTorrent network, powering a decentralized ecosystem where users can share digital content such as files and media securely and efficiently.
BTT serves as the cryptocurrency required to access the network's features, aiming to be the central feature of its ecosystem. For example, it is the only form of payment that requesters can use when signing agreements with providers.
BitTorrent Chain uses smart contracts to develop decentralized applications and facilitate services such as BitTorrent Chain Speed. This service allows users to request higher download speeds and bandwidth that they can purchase with BTTC from providers.
