[BitcoinGirl.Club]

what I just can say: this shit is real!

Thank you to believe in this shit LOL
Let's wait for the next bull run. The bear needs to be defeated. Where is Khabib Nurmagomedov?

I use the uppercase and determines it as it is but there were times that I use the lower case too. But it doesn't matter for most but that's a great share to read and reminded me on what's the proper terminology and spelling.

What's the true matter now is we love BTCitcoin, both the currency and technology. And we're all waiting for that bull run, noone's gonna get tired waiting for that greatest days again.

It really is not matter how we call it. Bitcoin/bitcoins is a brand now. If I say bitcoins and Bitcoin, both means same for the community. The discovery was interesting when I first saw it and then thought to share it. It turns out that a lot of us yet to discover it after even over 10 years.

It is like Idiot with capital "I" and idiots in lower case. It does not matter much what case is used.

New learning.

I just noticed this in the advertising section of the forum.

The Bitcoin software, network, and concept is called "Bitcoin" with a capitalized "B". Bitcoin currency units are called "bitcoins" with a lowercase "b" -- this is often abbreviated BTC.

Meaning when I am paying someone in Bitcoin then I am sending him bitcoins 

We are Bitcoiners and bitcoins are our currency.

Thank you.

This is new for me and i just know from your thread, indeed a new information for me.
So, we can say when we want to talk about the currency unit, we call it 'bitcoins' (BTC). And other than that, we call it 'Bitcoin'.
I hope my understanding gone right and won't creating misunderstanding.

It's kinda small thing that people don't really notice it. It just the matter of how you'll going to use it in a sentence, as long as it can be understand. But thanks for sharing this one. I have learned something

LOL I liked the example very much.
So when should we use "Idiot" and "idiots"? I hope we are not conflicting the number.

Lol. That made it a little more interesting as i also haven't paid attention to the use of a capital and lowercase "B". But it makes sense. Or probably i just base it on how the term is being used by the person pertaining to it.

I do not blame you. There are a lot of things we don't know and don't expect that you should know everything. It was interesting for me too to know the terms first.

I am glad this topic helps.

Thanks for sharing this mate. I've been using the word Bitcoin in every sentence I made same with Altcoins because I treat them as an important subject. Though not needed to be highlighted but I feel comfortable using capital letters at the beginning of the word most especially to crypto. Good to know there is something like this thread that teaches each and every enthusiasts about the correct usage of the upper and lower case in the word Bitcoin.

I even don’t know that using capital letter of B with bitcoin has a different meaning. Well, this is really new to me and thanks fot educating people here in the forum. Its nice to see a post like this, like it makes me smile for a reason. Now, I’m more proud as a Bitcoiner.

This is how we stay unique from others. Even a 'B' has got varied representation on the same word mentioned for different indications. Though some users have made fun of it, this is truly a new information to users who aren't that aware about bitcoin as well about its techncal functionalities.

[EriksonPartners]

I didn't even know this. But i guess it makes sense that they are separated. The whole concept is Bitcoin, but the currency is bitcoins. Thanks for the info!

[Ucy]

Interesting stuff. I have always been  confused by  the difference. I noticed well known bitcoiners using the terms differently in the past but i didnt understand why back then 

It is more like Ethereum (the network) and ether is the currency.

This is also new learning for me, I didn't think before that there is a distinction between Bitcoin and bitcoin, maybe I will use the words Bitcoin and bitcoin correctly in the discussion in the thread

[The Cryptovator]

Make it sense. Thanks for sharing, just now learned something new about Bitcoin. Usually I didn't care about capital "B" or lowercase "b" due to lack of knowledge. I think this explanation is appropriate although I will not consider big mistake if someone use Bitcoin instead of bitcoin or use bitcoin instead of Bitcoin. However thanks once again for share something new.

I don't think many people care about that though. Yes it does make a lot of sense but for me, i wouldn't concern myslef that much with such small technicalities. It's not that hard to understand, based on the context of the sentence, if people are referring to "Bitcoin" Or "bitcoins".

[gesdan]

ow i just know about the b lowercase and B uppercase, as i know that b and B is same, but after i saw this thread i just know that b and B is different especially on bitcoin, maybe next time i will use b and B in a proper way
