Currently, you are NOT able to cash out your Barteos (BTE) for AUD until we list in an open exchange. As soon as we have 20,000 Business Members in Australia, Barteos will list its universal exchange coin (BTE) in open market financial exchanges to give your Trade Dollars an avenue to be exchanged for other digital currency.

The ATO does not treat Barteos as money. For Australian tax purposes, Barteos is property, like gold. It’s intangible however, like shares or units in a trust. This means that the tax effect of holding or using it will depend on how you use it, and whether you’re in business.

Trade Dollars act just like cash and for that matter are pegged to the value of regular currency. One Australian Dollar = One Barteos Trade Dollar.

Trade Dollars are a unique form of currency that give your business buying power. As a not-for-profit, community-benefit organisation, Barteos Australia provides this system with no monthly account-keeping fees, no percentage fees for transactions and only one cent transaction fee for the buyer.

Your Trade Dollars never expire and should never lose value or buying power.

Barteos is the world’s first Dual-State barter and cryptocurrency. This means that our digital currency has the ability to switch between 2 different states. These different states include:

1. Barteos (BTE-AUD) – which is the Barteos Trade Dollar and is suitable to be used for the trading of Goods & Services as a stable trading dollar. The Trade Dollar is pegged to the Australian Dollar and is a Stable-State digital currency.

2. Barteos (BTE) – which is similar in nature to Bitcoin and is a cryptocurrency designed as a transnational universal digital currency. It started as a “penny stock”, that will grow in value as each merchant joins the eco-trading-system prior to listing on an open exchange.

When a user tries to create an account multiple times our security system then blocks the IP address of that user.

To resolve this issue, please use another phone to create your account (friend or family’s phone). Once you have created your account from the secondary phone you can then click ‘Login’ on your app on your own device using the username and password you created.
You can then delete the app from the secondary phone. OR
