At least there is a unicode character since June 2017: ₿

U+20BF BITCOIN SIGN

And Unicode also has an emoji variation selector U+FE0F, which requests that the preceding character should be rendered as an emoji. Thus, Unicode already has a unique, backwards-compatible encoding for the Bitcoin emoji: ₿ (In the future, with a supporting font, you should see this as a Bitcoin emoji) U+20BF BITCOIN SIGN U+FE0F VARIATION SELECTOR-16

It would be considered non-standard until sanctioned by Unicode, but fonts may already be able to implement this. All Unicode needs to do is include this sequence as part of the standardized variation sequences.

Now you can sign the petition for a Bitcoin Emoji HERE. Yes it's a necessary step. I remember a few days ago I desperately needed one Bitcoin Emoji while writing a text message. I searched in many ways but the keyboard Emoji section didn't have any clue.

Be The Change.
