Bratislava, 10 September 2025 – Bitcoin Additional (BTCa), a blockchain fork of Bitcoin built on Proof-of-Stake (PoS) and Islamic ethical principles, announces the launch of BTCa v2, a major network upgrade designed to strengthen scalability, reliability, and accessibility for the global Muslim community and ethical investors.
Masternode Collateral – Running a masternode now requires 1 BTCa collateral only, opening access to a wider pool of investors.
Block Rewards – Each masternode validating transactions will earn 0.001 BTCa per block, distributed automatically.
Total Supply – Capped at 210,000 BTCa, with minting set at one coin per 1,000 minutes (0.001 BTCa/min).
Pre-mine Allocation – Approximately 2,200 BTCa pre-mined and fully distributed to active masternodes.
Improved Ecomining – Lower entry thresholds and optimized staking-like yield generation.
Multi-node Capability – Increased efficiency for masternode operations.
Lightweight Wallets – New wallets consume fewer server resources.
Reliability Boost – Enhanced stability and security for node operators and users.
All tokens minted previously on Bitcoin Additional v.1 will be swapped 1:1 – all BTCa holders will receive a new BTCa v2.
BTCa was launched in 2022 to enable fair, low-cost, and transparent microtransactions, particularly for charitable giving (zakat, sadaqah, personal aid). Unlike Bitcoin, where high fees and slow transaction speed hinder small transfers, BTCa provides:
Low fees suitable for distributing small donations.
Fast transaction finality for community use cases.
A system aligned with Shariah principles by avoiding interest, excessive speculation, and unjust enrichment.
For over three years, BTCa has powered blockchain-based charity and integrated with the Quan2um ecosystem, with adoption across Central Asia, the Caucasus, Middle East, Turkey, and Africa.
BTCa remains fully open-source and verifiable:
