Bitcoin New is a stand-alone blockchain that originated as a Bitcoin fork.

History

Bitcoin New forked from Bitcoin at the end of 2017 and credited BTC holders with an equivalent amount of Bitcoin New (BTN). But the project later transitioned to a separate, stand-along blockchain that migrated to a Proof-of-Stake consensus model and focused on implementing Artificial Intelligence on a blockchain. The project advertises itself as a “next-generation decentralized application for commercial applications.” Bitcoin New plans to serve as an efficient, highly customizable decentralized application operating system by developing a Turing-complete virtual machine (BVM).
