"comment for currency" ?!!
Not sats? Not CCs ? No "pay to post" ?
What did that imply?
What is trying to say SN with this?

so commodities are currencies?

Currency is issued by an authority and it's valid only in that jurisdiction. Picture casino chips, or cowboy credits

That's my question.
according to International Organization fo Standardization
ISO 4217 Currency codes
"This standard establishes internationally recognized codes for the representation of currencies that enable clarity and reduce errors. Currencies are represented both numerically and alphabetically, using either three digits or three letters. Some of the alphabetic codes for major currencies are familiar, such as “EUR” for Euros. Fortunately, ISO 4217 covers everything from Afghanis to Zambian Kwacha as well."
Definitions and the practical application of them seem to be at least arguably not the same thing.

Native English speakers get taught at school that alliteration is good English. So often people try to match the first letter of things to make it roll off the tongue and sound better. So I might say "magnificent money" or "dirty dollars" or "lovely lucre" or whatever. Sometimes it can lead to some awkward noun/adjective choices. Since I don't think there are many English majors at SN (thankfully) a little awkward language in the UI is maybe to be expected. Doubt there is a deep state conspiracy to undermine Bitcoin via subliminal psyops of the SN user base (would be funny if there was though)

I am with @DarthCoin on this one. He is right about everything so when it comes to something smelling fishy, Darth is the right person.

Must have dropped the legal retainer, calling credits currency loops right back to SN being custodial ;)

As individuals humans are weak and vulnerable.
So humans organise into groups.
Even Libertarians.
