I dislike sites that use bits, mbits. Why can't they just stick to the  standard BTC or BTC nomenclature? There must be a standardization soon. Where is the Bitcoin foundation when we need them?

For me it's BTC or satoshi. Satoshi because I started out with faucets and it was very easy for me to understand. Bitcoin because of obvious reasons. It's easy to compare it fiat and such. Also easy to convert, well actually since the price keeps rising I do have to keep up with the market prices.



I use units in context as well, Satoshis for very small values (faucets as well), and Bitcoins for others more valuable cases - even though most of the time it starts with zero point something - I got used to it pretty soon. The most important when using Satoshis is knowing 100 million Satoshis = 1 Bitcoin.

The pool should allow multi choice imo...

For me I like mBTC or BTC they are both good and nice to see the number of bitcoin.
The most people will go for BTC, because is easy to understand. For people is starting with bitcoins satoshi is also good to know.

I really like BTC. Even if the numbers are ugly, like 0.003254 BTC, i still prefer this. I dont like all the 700mBTC and 920 Satoshis...

millies have confused me a couple of times now. Somehow the bitcoin measures got stuck in my head and I cannot stand looking at 100 mBTC for instance (shame on me, I work with those type of measures every day..)

I think i'll just need to invest a couple of mins to get used to the way it is put. As with increasing value, I think mBTC will become more and more common.

Millies

I've done a lot of travelling, been in places for both short and long times. I always find some quick way to convert the local fiat to something I'm used to.
Here, it's USD

I look at prices in USD, double it and I've got millies approximately.
Vice versa works too, of course.
For most of this year the multiplier was higher tho.

Easy...

Shit, did I leave the stove on?
I prefer 1 btc as a unit because I find it the easiest to understand and calculate on the go.

I just like to work off the fraction of one bitcoin. I get confused using mbtc and satoshis etc.

I'm much comfortable when using the BTC itself as it's own measuring unit. It just makes me get really confused all the time when I see on other websites that they use smaller measuring unit and I have to use an online converter just to understand how much exactly it is in order to not get confuse. It's just makes the process a bit longer if other units used.

I'm way in the minority on this one:  I can't stand mBTC or "bits".  I much prefer either satoshi or BTC.  And I think there should only be one, which is BTC 0.xxxxxxxx.  You can't mistake it for anything else and it does the job every time. 

This is one of my huge pet peves, too many units of measurement which require endless fucking conversions.

Satoshi up to 9999 (when people say stuff like 500K satoshi I don't process it) and BTC for everything else online. It's awkward saying "point-zero-zero-one bitcoin" in actual speech though, so maybe mBTC could get a better name than "millie" and we could use that?

What unit do you find more comfortable when measuring BTC values?
Obviously, BTC.

End of opinion.

I must admit that I am using BTC as unit as well. When I think about values, I think for example 0.00004800 BTCs.

4800 satoshis still confuses me and I do need slowly get my brain used to the thousands of satoshis and not the decimal points and zeros.

I am most comfortable with bitcoin and satoshi. I don't know why, probably because I've been using both since the beginning I started with bitcoin. I might start to change these things since they use different measurings on gambling sites and such.
