i think it will be 0.001 BTC

Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

0.001 BTC is appropriate.

Who made millibit an official term?

"millibit" is not an official term.  I simply ask what "millibit" means, if anything, to the bitcoiners which visit this thread.  I'm neither endorsing nor attacking the term "millibit".

Actually, I think milli-bitcoin (not millibit) is pretty much the future

BTC ? Okay.

mBTC ? Okay, 0.001 BTC

Satoshi ? Okay, the smallest unit.

mBTC will likely become extremely dominant. Near the 1000$ phase of BTC, mBTC were convenient as they had parity with the dollar.
Using decimal places will not stay forever, mBTC is easier to use. Why mBTC and not Bitcent, Bit, kiloSatoshi or whatever crap? Well, I'd attribute it to the fact that mBTC could be considered more of a unit, under which transactions rarely occur. It's not too big that you need to use decimal places too often, nor too small that you would need to talk in hundreds.

No longer active on bitcointalk, however, you can still reach me via PMs if needed.

We should just use the metric system and be done with it.

KBTC = 10^3BTC
mBTC = 10^-3 BTC
uBTC = 10^-6 BTC

I think millibit is confusing. mBTC, or mSatoshi should distinguish these concepts better.

I think millibit is confusing. mBTC, or mSatoshi should distinguish these concepts better.

Perhaps you mean decisatoshi (dSAT) or nanobitcoin (nBTC).

Anyway, I'm not worried about distinguishing these concepts.  I'm just want an idea of the communities current understanding of the term "millibit" in light of the presently fashionable term "bit".  I honestly thought I'd see more votes for "Other/Unknown/Ambiguous/Nonsensical".
