ChainCatcher report: Bitcoin fork asset BTCB2 reached a historical high of $1,799 on September 5. Over the past 4 hours, its price has fluctuated between $750 and $1,000 USDC; the Neoxa USDC market recorded approximately $1 million in trading volume over the past 24 hours. BTCB2 originated from a chain split on August 8, 2026, at block height 961,632. The network subsequently changed its proof-of-work algorithm to Blake2 and reduced block size, making it mineable only by ASIC miners compatible with Blake2. BTCB2 is now listed on Neoxa Exchange and Nonkyc.io; the former offers trading pairs with BTC, USDC, and USDT, while the latter offers a USDT pair. Both platforms have limited liquidity, and the asset is not yet listed on CoinMarketCap or CoinGecko. At a BTCB2 price of $1,000, its fully diluted valuation is approximately $20.9 billion. Since UTXOs must first be split from Bitcoin to avoid replay attacks, the network’s hashrate has increased by 30.41% over the past seven days, reaching approximately 5.1 PH/s.
