Crypto Trading

Remember when we used to say Bitcoins as the plural? Now it is simply Bitcoin. And the ticker, there were even debates back then about whether it should be $XBT instead of $BTC, since “X” was traditionally reserved for currencies not issued by sovereign nations. That is why we have tickers like $XRP, $XLM, $XMR, $XTZ and those of ICO coins that just died. If the convention had continued, distinguishing each coin today would have been a nightmare, especially when it comes to pronunciation. Hard to believe how much has changed in just a decade.
