And with one poll, one thread from a year ago http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=41.0 , has became two.

For your next trick, pull a rabbit out of your ass.

This is the only winner



But ฿ is second.

Note: The first and last options are no characters at all.   Bottom shows up as just a square.   Top one starts off with a  B but ends with a square character.

I vote: forget about the glyph for now.

Use a sexy .png something like the image above, or the letters BTC.

Go for a proper unicode character once the bitcoin economy has some serious scale to it.

#_B

or

#^B


either way

We already have a de-facto standard Bitcoin currency code: BTC
This discussion is about a single-digit symbol, which is kind of complementary for most (all?) currencies.

Indeed the one that shows up as 'just a square' for you is the one featured on the link you shared. Ƀ  

 also like it, and would use it on my bitcoin web store if it rendered properly in all browsers.  As you demonstrated, it often does not.  Therefore for now I use BTC and ฿

We see: ฿ is the favorite but it is already in ust by thailand
does someone know, if its "allowed" to use?

If not, there will be Ƀ the next favorite

I find the list unnecessarily limited to capitals.
Capital 'B' stands for Byte, not bit, so for the bitcoin I propose the ␢ (I just hope it won't show as a square)
(description: minor 'b'with a horizontal line through the stem.
Edit: well, not quite totally horizontal...

witch....   hmm it's really hard to decide.

what about this one: http://gremlindog.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/witch.jpg

(nerds: note the moiré effect zooming in and out)

zLOL

I am use to the $ here in America, but I think the B with the line through it doesn't look to good I go with Ƀ
1.5Ƀ   looks pretty cool

Most currency's say $ amount.. or (Euro symbol) amount.. but it would be pronounced dollars 15 which no one says here...In the US as I know of. But Bitcoin..being the new amazing currency it is should be pronounced 7.12B and if you are out of the US please tell me why a comma is used instead of a decimal?
