BTCB2 Price Hits New High Amid Growing Hash Rate and Limited Liquidity
The price of BTCB2, an asset resulting from a Bitcoin chain split in August 2026, reached $1,799 on September 5. This is the highest recorded price for the asset to date.
In the past four hours, its value has fluctuated between $750 and $1,000 USDC, with a 24-hour trading volume of approximately $1 million on Neoxa's USDC market.
The chain split occurred at block height 961,632 on August 8, 2026, after which the network switched to the Blake2 proof-of-work algorithm and reduced its block size. As a result, ASIC miners compatible with Blake2 can mine the network.
Neoxa Exchange and Nonkyc.io have listed BTCB2, offering trading pairs against BTC, USDC, and USDT. However, the liquidity on these platforms is limited, and neither CoinMarketCap nor CoinGecko has included the asset in their listings.
