Use XBT when referring to the currency for trading purposes. Use BTC when referring to complex transactions and derivatives such as securities and virtual commodities. use Unicode Characters Alt +0243 or Alt +0E3F when labeling merchandise with pricing.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

Just because the official name is XBC doesn't mean that we can't use the term BTC on this forum and with other people. Let's make things simpler.

This. The official code of the US dollar is USD, but we still call them "dollars", "bucks", "greenbacks", "$", etc.
Replying to something someone said in the future...  I like it.

XBT is designated for a currency that doesn't belong to a currency, and BTC's acronym.

We could just call it XBT or BTC if we want. No need to do 'BTC for this' or 'SAT for that'. Plus, SAToshi and a SAT could get confused.

No.  The naming system is a tacit endorsement of the idea that something issued by a government is more official then something that is not.   We should not voluntarily put ourselves in the X subbasement.
This.


Remember Aaron Swartz, a 26 year old computer scientist who died defending the free flow of information.

Actually, we need 'X' more than possible. If they used 'BTC', it could be claimed by any country that begins with 'B'. 'X' represents it's not owned by any country.
