In text or chat messages describing how things could have been worse, BTN stands for "better than nothing." Your friends, family, or coworkers might use this acronym, to remind you that a little bit of a good thing is better than none.
For example, if you got only a 2% raise this year, and you complain to your coworker, your coworker might respond with "Hey, it's BTN. There're years we've gotten 0%." This is a sign that you should start looking for a new job.
