Is it a space future keyboard? Or more like an apocalyptic future keyboard?

Keyboards? in the future? My direct brain interface will understand the bitcoin symbol fine thank you  Grin

You know what? This is a cool idea. No need to wait for the future. If someone designs a keyboard that has a bitcoin currency button on it, I will buy one and buy one for all of my friends. Just one request: make it classy.

Hello, computer!


Yeah, well, I'm gonna go build my own blockchain. With blackjack and hookers! In fact forget the blockchain.

What bitcoin currency symbol? (Before you get all huffy and point out BTC, remember there is nothing official in bitcoin)

I like to price things in millibitcoins and use the mB abbreviation, no special symbol required.

The bitcoin character should just be changed to ß  (ascii character 225)

Then you could just assign it to your gaming keyboard (macro key) and be cool like that.

Though, this might mix up the Germans somewhat.

Would be kinda confusing for Germans indeed.

Do the germans currently use that symbol as an abreviation for money? Or anything related to money?

No it's used like a normal letter.
Although it's a bit of a special one as it's the only one without an upper case for it.

E.g. "fun" in German is "Spaß"

I suggest placing it in the AltGr+B combination


Btw, you don't need gaming keyboard software, you can make custom keyboard mappings on Windows by using Microsoft's Keyboard Layout Creator; though it might have some small issues if your physical keyboard is foreign, like for example, with ABNT2 Brazilian keyboards there is one key the program doesn't acknowledge in the editor interface. And if i'm not mistaken, Linux allow for custom layout creation by simply editing some text file somwhere, but i could be wrong.

The idea here is to terminate the U.S. Satanic dollars all together.
The U.S. dollar has been a scam that the devil worshipers cult illuminati (Bilderberg Group) run all over the world for decades.

No. Not in Germany. In Austria maybe but not in Germany!

Also many people (myself included) have this letter as a part of their name. Also this letter is a ligature of "sz" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ß and has nothing to do with "b" so it does not have anything in common with "Bitcoin" at all (there is no "s" and no "z" in Bitcoin).

Maybe we can call it now “Szitcon”.

An economy based on endless growth is unsustainable.
