Bitcoin = the network.
bitcoin = unit of account along with satoshis/sats.

bitcoin is garbage as a unit of account. Just stick to sats. It will come naturally when sats are closer to cents.

Our relationship with technology is more immediate, and elements we rely upon everyday are usually represented in lowercase: fire, electricity, cars, lightbulbs, computers, phones, internet, email, tweets. All these discoveries and inventions were new at one point but reached a critical mass of adoption to make them a regular part of everyday communications. We believe bitcoin is at this inflection point.

I agree with the other examples. but I still capitalize the Internet. I think I'll keep using Bitcoin when referring to the network.
