# Cryptocurrency ticker symbol (`cryptocurrency_ticker`)

> **Draft.** Draft records have not been reviewed yet and may be incomplete or wrong; do not treat them as authoritative for legal or compliance decisions.

Short code of a cryptocurrency or token used by exchanges, wallets and price services, such as BTC for Bitcoin or ETH for Ether. No authority assigns these codes and ISO 4217 does not include them, so the same ticker can denote different tokens on different platforms. A registered, unambiguous identifier of a token is the ISO 24165 Digital Token Identifier (dti).
