How are you going to do that? I was planning to do the same, but wasn't sure of the best way. I'd like to give them a QR code or something?

There is already a word for a thousandth unit of a currency: a mill. A mill is a thousandth of a dollar. The word mill appears in the U.S. Constitution, along with the words dime and cent. I mentioned in another post that at one time there were actual mill coins, issued by some states. Apparently the feds didn't issue any mills. The ones I handled as a child were made of red plastic. I'm going with bitmill or just plain mill.

Why make up a new word when the mill (or mille or mil) is already used with many currencies?
Mill (currency) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The mill or mille (₥) (sometimes mil in the UK, when discussing property taxes in the United States, or previously in Cyprus and Malta) is a now-abstract unit of currency used sometimes in accounting. In the United States, it is a notional unit equivalent to 1⁄1000 of a United States dollar (a tenth of a cent). In the United Kingdom it was proposed during the decades of discussion on the decimalization of the pound as a 1⁄1000 division of the pound sterling. Several other currencies used the mill, such as the Maltese lira. The term comes from the Latin "millesimum", meaning "thousandth part".

A 'lame' because that's how I feel describing bitcoin (or any whole unit of currency not rounded to the nearest integer, see $4.99 FUCK YOU IT'S $5 /pennjillette) out loud instead of just pointing at the amounts on a screen.
LOL

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.
