Well its a small thing but it can bring awareness to people about cryptocurrency especially to those who are not updated to whats the current trend in the internet.

It might not be big deal for others but for us crypto enthusiasts its nice seeing such symbol in ios as well as in other device.

I can honestly say that I've never typed the Bitcoin symbol in my entire life. If someone outside here sent it to me it might take me a few seconds to figure out what they're referring to.

Traitor! You infidel!!   Grin Grin

But seriously, I don't see people using it.
If it's the same as on Android, where you have to go to symbols, tap and hold on the $ and then select BTC it's a pain in the ass
I would type faster "bitcoin" than going through all of that.

how many people even know to hold down the $ sign to get the dropdown menu? i've had an android for a long time and i didn't even know that function existed until reading this story.

and of course, they didn't even add the bitcoin symbol to the android app. seems totally weird to me. google and android go hand in hand usually.

i would be very surprised if there were even 100k gboard users on iphone. among them, few will probably even notice this. Cheesy

The addition of a bitcoin currency symbol clearly shows that Google does not turn a blind eye to the crypto world.
https://news.bitcoin.com/bitcoin-currency-symbol-google/

Google has a significant effect on the cryptocurrency market.
Time will tell what the cascading effect of adding the bitcoin symbol is to the minds of everyday iOS users.
What do you get from adding a bitcoin currency symbol to iOS?

Most iOS user are educated and if bitcoin symbol added in iOS, i dont think it will give big effect. Most of iOS user must be already know about cryptocurrency and blockchain but perhaps with adding symbol they interesting to invest in crypto

Its awareness for crypto community in the middle people said crypto is a buble. If iOS adding bitcoin symbol, there must be something big will coming and thats must be good for bitcoin community. Soon or later people will familiar with bitcoin in any device

of course this will be an additional trust for middle and upper middle class investors. I am sure that getting familiar is certainly not an obstacle for them to read opportunities for cryptocurrency, by investing further, it will certainly have a positive impact on the development of crypto

the addition of the bitcoin symbol into iOS is not a big influence in bitcoin price movements, the addition of the bitcoin symbol only makes it easier for people to give bitcoin writing, and that will have a big influence when there is good news happening in bitcoin.

IOS have give bitcoin symbol on google keyboard, I think will have big effect for bitcoin and altcoin at the future with price will grow up. I hope will have new product and companies want to accepted bitcoin and altcoin as their payment for the future.

How can adding one symbol in IOS have an effect in the increase of the price of bitcoins? I do not see the correlation between the two stated causes. Although it might make people curious about the said symbol, concluding that it will have a significant effect on its price is unwarranted.

How can one symbol effectively influence the price movement of bitcoin? There are various factors to consider when analyzing the price movement of cryptocurrencies and concluding that one symbol will make such a huge price movement is fallacious. One positive effect of it is that, it gives awareness to individuals who are not knowledgeable about the cryptocurrency world.

I am not sure whether it will make any significant change because everyone have heard about bitcoin unless you are living in a isolated island without the outside world news, but majority does not know how and what to do in the market and they think it is a geek market and unless you break that jinx and make sure that every Jack and Harry can follow the guidelines on how to purchase and save the coins properly, you wont see the general population getting interested in it, having a bitcoin symbol could trigger some people to find out about the market, slow and steady we will win the race.

The interesting thing about this announcement is that if Google has done this is because they have seen a growing interest in Bitcoin and they expect the number of Bitcoin users grows significantly in the future.

Nothing really big I don't really think this news will have any impact on the market, by the way, what these major companies doing is amuse me they do acts that reflect some support for Bitcoin and at the same time they never say something official.

This is a very small, but positive step and it can be a sign that a giant in the IT industry like Google, has taken another step towards recognizing BTC as one of the main currencies.

They probably added it because maybe many people are using the term crypto currency or more specifically "bitcoin". So this means that more people have heard about the term bitcoin and is some what interested on that currency. It's not a bad thing to be honest. The symbol will also catch the interest of the people who does not know what bitcoin is. All way around, it's still a good thing for us.

I think your opinion is correct because the more technology develops and the more people who know bitcoin, then surely big companies like Apple, Google and others must be able to adapt to be able to continue to benefit.

It will also be promoting the usage of Bitcoin and the Google keyboard adding the symbol of Bitcoin to its keyboard from in the recent times so it will also be a very good improvement for the Bitcoin to reach some of the people very easily I seen it was a good implement for the Bitcoin.

It is an indisputable fact that bitcoin is one of the most search word across the globe, so google is following the trend in order to satisfy IOS users. It will soon be added to android.

The main advantage of putting the symbol of Bitcoin in the keyboard that people using every time in their life it will definitely attract the people to know about the Bitcoin investment and high profit from the field of cryptocurrency and it will also be the good promotion for new people to enter into this field.

Its the equivalent of saying its a recognizable currency.
This is a very good thing to see and hopefully soon we will see ETH and other crypto symbols as standard.

There is going yo be a big reach amonst current generation without huge cost on advertisement. Google has taken it very seriously and it shows how bitcoin has much involved in the current tech market amongst goofle users. A good sign though. Lets keep watching google adding other crypto currencies' symbols with the success of bitcoin keyboard usage.

Nothing directly significant. Just one more symbol on Gboard (makes me wonder why this came out first on iOS instead of Android). One obvious benefit of course is we no longer have to use ฿ as a stand-in when talking about bitcoins outside the forum.

It might affect people subconsciously though since it IS among the currency symbols. When it also comes out on Android every smartphone user would see it as BTC as a currency symbol.

Just a small cosmetic change. Nothing much is gained from adding the symbol to the keyboard.

It may help increase bitcoin's presence in the public's consciousness but nothing more than that. Some people who've never heard of it might say "What is this currency?" and then look it up. Some people who've heard about it might think "So, it is legit". And so forth.
