Grin Icon Branding

what currency symbol did bitcoin use? the g symbol is currently hard coded to be a symbol for an in use currency I believe, so it could be considered outright fraud.

Bitcoin adopted the Thai Baht as its currency symbol ฿.

Bitcoin does not use the currency symbol of the Thai Baht. That would probably be illegal outright.

This is amazing! Also news to me. I was under the impression that the Bitcoin community still borrowed ฿, but it turns in 2017 Unicode included ₿ into the standard (₿ Bitcoin Emoji).

This means that there is hope for Grin to have it’s own currency symbol added into the Unicode standard in the future! All the more reason to have a custom designed symbol unique to the purpose for Grin.

PS: If you don’t believe that the Baht symbol was ever borrowed, you’d be wrong. Refer to here for a note on that if you don’t believe me: Bitcoin symbol - Bitcoin Wiki
