So what's happening here? Is he carrying owls to Japan?

What's with the Great Chain?

Does the person making these things realize that 1,000 BTC can be interpreted radically different depending on which country you're in?

its 1000 mBTC Wink



Oh good, that's even worse.

Back onto the main problem though with using a decimal seperator in international currency.

Depending on the country a point and a comma can mean completely different things.

Like this: 1,000

That's One Thousand in the US

But in the EU it's One

And this: 1.000

Is One in the US

But One Thousand in the EU.


Yes that is unfortunate

This confuses me a lot in these forums and a few services. I'm from the EU and when I see 1,000 i'm almost never sure if it's either 1 or 1000  Sad
