I've seen both BTC and BCT used on the forum. Is one of them the "official" way to refer to a unit of Bitcoin?

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

I've seen BCT from time to time, but it's surely a typo.
