I used to like it, now it looks silly. It’s an emoji.
Ehhh that's a distinction without a difference, both are unicode characters, but yes a simpler one would probably be best
Ok fair, but ⚡️doesn’t look like a serious symbol for money like £ € $ ¥. Bitcoins Satoshis deserve a proper symbol. Using ⚡️is like an inside joke.
Also fair
There is this more basic one: 🗲
There's yet another even simpler one but i'm struggling to find it, dont know what its properly called
Might have been thinking this, but its font dependent... ϟ
SN font doesn't match what I expected but I've seen it elsewhere look better
great, let's use something that corresponds to the Q or the kaka; Qanon people will be ecstatic when they find out about bitcoin;

I am Q anon people, but true most fell for the xrp op
if u think that religion is so important, go ahead and make a post about how this religious movement is led by common sense; it'll be fun to watch arguments trying to jump thru hoops;
there are 1000's of mind control flavors; as long as some authoritative movement exists, it's all bad and all slop for plebs;
see, it's all octagons and squares, cubes and hypercubes, keeping people boxed in their head
scene from In Shadow short film; can u handle 13 min of high-quality cartoon narrative?
https://shapecatcher.com/ yields some other promising options but they all render fucky based on font

Looks like my portfolio today
Haha
Always going up ain't sustainable!
try 🗲
now we're talkin'
21M???
NO; lightning bolts can go both ways, up and down; chakra system is a helical vortex going up and down the spine during activation;
that's also the concept behind the Magician tarot card:
- boots on the ground, grounded
- head in the space/cosmos, enlightened into the infinity
P.S. justin_shocknet, u get no opinion in this, u know a big fat zero about this topic, a round goose-egg of symbolic knowledge; it was supposed to be taught in kindergarten, but obviously most state schools rushed thru shapes curriculum;
this is 100% true. emojis are cute little cartoons.
I like it too. Coinos uses it.
Wallets generally have to unify balance between chain and lightning which is a complication. If you show the balance with a bolt, a user may assume their entire balance is on LN, when there could be a chain balance reflected in that
Amount is a factor too, it should really switch when the decimal value is greater than .009 or so where a chain payment is more viable
I was sympathetic to bits because I think people get hung up on <100 sats left in Lightning wallets because of fee reserves needed, and in chain context the last two digits are superfluous since tx fees will eat them anyway, they could be a smaller font (like cents)
Bits for Lightning and Chain balances bridge the gap a bit with long decimal values, problem is its not really a thing beyond an aesthetic abstraction and died before this was realized
lightning bolt as a symbol
Sats aren't mentioned here but you know immediately by looking at it what the unit is
Biggest drawback to bits in UX may be that if this was was a .11 instead of 11 you might think it was cents had I not put the fiat value underneath it
I can see how bits can be the most logical way to proceed...but they are dead in the water to me. I don't see people ever navigating some chunk of sats other than 1 bitcoin.
How would you think of a skulldugerous use of bits? don't call it bits but just make the last 2 sats when sats >99 being a smaller font than the 100+?
I do like the lightning bolt as a symbol, but I fear that usage will wither on the branch. It never even caught on that much among lightning wallets.
