Nice question/post
Thanks. I voted for "em-bee-tee-see". Bitcoin is a strange unit. I have been saying "Milli-Meter", "Milli-Amps" but I can't get round saying "Milli-Bitcoin". I don't know why? ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Interesting. I'm surprised that there are so many votes for "twenty em-bee-tee-see". Would you also read "4 BTC" as "four bee-tee-see" rather than "four bitcoins"?

There isn't such a thing as mBTC like there isn't such a thing as milli dollars, or milli euros. (although given todays BTC/USD price tag mbtc is practical)
BTC, bits and satoshis and that's all. Unfortunately some sites insist on adding confusion by using mBTC which has been rejected by the vast majority of the bitcoin community.

For those who are confused with mBTC uBTC etc..
Satoshi will be very happy if we will use the right form.
Bits are the smallest parts of the Bitcoin.
mBTC contain BTC so ...
It is not milli bit :-)
Kind regards

No, I say "four bitcoins" and not "four bee-tee-see". I think it has to do with the "C" syllable in bitcoin. The "C" makes it difficult to chain words and still rolls off the tongue.

I spell it as "mbtc" like "ubtc" and "btc". You can see spelling it differently may confuse somebody plus i am just a newbie in bitcoin world.

so for you 1mBTC = 1 Satoshi?? So you are double wrong ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Some members are using "Satoshi" unit instead of "bit" but 1 "satoshi" means 10 −8 ( 0.00000001 BTC ) not 1mBTC ... 1mBTC = 0.001 BTC = 10 −3BTC Anyway.. Regards.

Bits are the smallest parts of the Bitcoin.
Some members are using "Satoshi" unit instead of "bit" but 1 "satoshi" means 10−8 ( 0.00000001 BTC ) not 1mBTC ...
Offtopic: Is it possible that you're operating under the assumption that a "bit" represents 0.000 000 01 BTC = 1 satoshi? This has been proposed before but the notion failed to gain traction. The most popular interpretation is that a "bit" should represent precisely 1 microbitcoin = 0.000 001 BTC = 100 satoshi.
