| PRELIMINARY PROSPECTUS | SUBJECT TO COMPLETION | DATED FEBRUARY 27, 2024 |
|---|
Up to [●] Shares of Common Stock
Up to [●] Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase [●] Shares of Common Stock
Up to [●] Shares of Common Stock Underlying such Pre-Funded Warrants
We are offering on a “best efforts” basis up to [●] shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) at an assumed public offering price of $[●] per share of Common Stock (assuming a public offering price equal to the last sale price of our Common Stock of $[●] as reported by The Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) on February [●], 2024).
We are also offering to each purchaser, if any, whose purchase of shares of Common Stock in this offering would otherwise result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of such purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding Common Stock immediately following the consummation of this offering, the opportunity to purchase, if the purchaser so chooses, pre-funded warrants, (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”), in lieu of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise result in the purchaser’s beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% (or, at the election of such purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding shares of Common Stock. Each Pre-Funded Warrant will be immediately exercisable for one share of Common Stock and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full. The purchase price of each Pre-Funded Warrant will equal the price per share at which the shares of Common Stock are being sold to the public in this offering, minus $0.0001, and the exercise price of each Pre-Funded Warrant will be $0.0001 per share. For each Pre-Funded Warrant we sell, the number of shares of Common Stock we are offering will be decreased on a one-for-one basis. This prospectus also relates to the shares of Common Stock that are issuable from time to time upon exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants sold in this offering. We refer to the shares of Common Stock and Pre-Funded Warrants to be sold in this offering collectively as the “Securities.”
Our Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “BTCY.” We have assumed a public offering price of $[●] per share of Common Stock, which was the last reported sale price on Nasdaq of our shares of Common Stock on February [●], 2024. The actual offering price per share of Common Stock or Pre-Funded Warrant, will be negotiated between us and the investors, in consultation with the placement agent based on, among other things, the trading price of our Common Stock prior to the offering and may be at a discount to the current market price. Therefore, the assumed public offering price used throughout this prospectus may not be indicative of the final offering price. In addition, there is no established public trading market for the Pre-Funded Warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. We do not intend to apply for a listing of the Pre-Funded Warrants on any national securities exchange.
We have engaged A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners to act as our exclusive placement agent (the “Placement Agent”) in connection with this offering. The Placement Agent has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of the Securities offered by this prospectus. The Placement Agent is not purchasing or selling any of the securities we are offering and is not required to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of securities. We have agreed to pay to the Placement Agent the placement agent fees set forth in the table below, which assumes that we sell all of the Securities offered by this prospectus.
The Securities will be offered at a fixed purchase price and are expected to be issued in a single closing. We will deliver all securities to be issued in connection with this offering delivery versus payment (“DVP”)/receipt versus payment (“RVP”) upon receipt of investor funds received by us. Accordingly, neither we nor the Placement Agent have made any arrangements to place investor funds in an escrow account or trust account since the Placement Agent will not receive investor funds in connection with the sale of the Securities offered hereunder. There is no minimum offering requirement as a condition of closing of this offering. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to closing this offering, we may sell fewer than all of the Securities offered hereby, which may significantly reduce the amount of proceeds to be received by us, and investors in this offering will not receive a refund in the event that we do not sell an amount of securities sufficient to pursue our business goals described in this prospectus. This offering will terminate on [●], 2024, unless the closing occurs before that date or we decide to terminate the offering (which we may do at any time in our discretion) prior to that date. In addition, because there is no escrow account and no minimum offering amount, investors could be in a position where they have invested in our company, but we are unable to fulfill all of our contemplated objectives due to a lack of interest in this offering. Further, any proceeds from the sale of Securities offered by us will be available for our immediate use, despite uncertainty about whether we would be able to use such funds to effectively implement our business plan. We will bear all costs associated with the offering.
Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 11 of this prospectus for a discussion of information that should be considered in connection with an investment in our Common Stock.

(1) We have agreed to pay the Placement Agent a total cash fee equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds of the offering, except that, with respect to proceeds raised in this offering from [●] shares of Common Stock to be sold to certain identified investors, the placement agent fee will be 3.5% of such proceeds.
(2) Does not include a non-accountable expense allowance of up to $25,000 and other compensation payable to the Placement Agent. See “Plan of Distribution” for a description of the compensation payable to the Placement Agent.
(3)The amount of the proceeds to us presented in this table does not give effect to any exercise of the Pre-Funded Warrants.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities, or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.
Delivery of the Securities is expected to be made on or about , 2024.
