    Bitcoin is digital money. A better analogy would be to campaign for a USD, Yen, euro or British pound emoji.

    Oh wait, they already exist.

        I agree with you.

        I’m not really arguing for a bitcoin emoji. Just against the McDonald’s brand comparison.

        BTC is not mainstream enough (and never will be) to be needed in everyday text speak.

      Except those are real currencies the world recognizes.

      Most businesses will tell you to fuck off if you try to pay them in bitcoin.

        Yes and no. You can indirectly pay for things in Bitcoin using a Bitcoin credit card. Although I’m not sure why you would want to.

          It’s not “paying in bitcoin” if you have a random third party on your side converting it to a currency that isn’t a joke.
