    XBT is a commonly used ticker symbol for Bitcoin in the context of cryptocurrency. It is derived from the ISO 4217 currency code for Bitcoin, which is XBT. The use of XBT as a ticker symbol helps to differentiate Bitcoin from other currencies and assets in the cryptocurrency market. So, when you see XBT being used, it simply refers to Bitcoin.

XBT is the ticker symbol for Bitcoin, and it's widely used by exchanges and trading platforms to identify and trade Bitcoin. So, if you come across XBT, you can be sure they're talking about Bitcoin.
