Bitcoin-BLAKE2b should adopt XBT as a ticker. Hear me out.
BTC already identifies the Bitcoin-SHA-256 chain. Once there are two competing Bitcoin consensus networks, using BTC for both just creates unnecessary confusion and endless arguing.
XBT on the other hand is already an established Bitcoin ticker, used in financial infrastructure and APIs.
The X prefix also has a deeper meaning: it is used for non-national (stateless) monetary assets like gold, silver and Monero.
That makes XBT a much better fit than inventing some shitcoin-sounding ticker like BTB or B2B.
XBT = Bitcoin-BLAKE2b
XAU = Gold
XAG = Silver
XMR = Monero
And if the market eventually trades BTC/XBT, that pair would give us a clean market signal for which Bitcoin people actually value more.
The name Bitcoin-BLAKE2b was organically adopted by the community thanks to the great essay by @Roughnecks. Maybe you guys could call our bannermen for this one too? What do you think?
