Hows about:
Bitcoin = Bits = 1 unit
Bitcent or cents = cBits = 0.01 units
Bitmills or mills = mBits = 0.001 units
Bitmics or mics = μBits = 0.000001 units
Satoshi or sats = 0.00000001 units
Bitnans or nans = nBits = 0.000000001 units (for when 1 Bitcoin = 1 Mega dollar or BTC1 = M$1 = $1,000,000)

Can we start using mBTC (milliBees) now? Before the hordes arrive!

The mBTC idea for exchanges does have some sense if we want more widespread adoption.
If we use m
BTC in general conversation it will become the norm and exchanges will then be more inclined to adopt it also.

Yep - it's out of date, I was joking - but why not set a new target we can hope for?
m
BTC 1 = $2 by 2013-12-31 23:59?

milliBee?
To be part of rpietila supernode concept you need to be a KillaBee (KBTC) i.e. Killer Bee

Why not just mill or mills? Context would make it obvious that we mean mBTC.

nanos or nans = nBits = 0.000000001 units (for when 1 Bitcoin = 1 Mega dollar or BTC1 = M$1 = $1,000,000)
The logic being 100 cents in a Dollar/Euro but we don't say centidollar or centieuro, we just say cents.

embee sounds nice but embit maintains a closer attachment to bitcoin because of the bit part.

Yep - but we will struggle to call a 10 mBTC denomination a 'cent' because it would be confusing.
'Millis' works, but would you not have to say 'Bitcoin?' first if the coffeeshop normally takes USD / Euros?
Not against it - but we need to focus on mBTC and smaller for currency use in situations where adoption is likely to start.
At dollar parity - it's a perfect place to start and get it out there.
Even if it won't last!
I am not suggesting use of the term 'cents' for bitcoin, it just fits in with the metric table. Mills would work for bitcoin as no other currency uses this denomination so it would be unique for BTC. Cents is still the smallest denomination for USD/EUR so no confusion.

"centi-bit" cBTC
"milli-bit" mBTC - may be abbreviated to mills
"micro-bit" µBTC - may abbreviated to mics
"satoshi" sBTC - may abbreviated to sats
"nano-bit" nBTC - may abbreviated to nans
probably causes the least confusion

Nano-bit not possible without rewrite.
It's called futureproofing

So, lets get a vote put up for the following naming conventions:
1. "ceebits" (cBTC) / "embits" (mBTC) / "mybits" (µBTC)
2. "centi-bit" (cBTC) / "milli-bit" (mBTC) / "micro-bit" µBTC / "satoshi" (sBTC)
3. "cents" (cBTC) / "mills" (mBTC) / "mics" µBTC / "sats (satoshis)" (sBTC)
Or will this all need a seperate thread of its own?

I propose a new vote:
Will Bitcoin trade at m
BTC1 = $2 by 2013-12-31 23:59 UTC?
Or do we need to have a vote on what to vote on?

So there was a reddit thread about adopting "bits" as the new unit (1 bit = 1 microBTC).
What's general sentiment? I rather like the idea. Current exchange: $0.001145 per bit. Sounds much more attractive psychologically. We really ought to choose a unit we're not gonna have to replace in a couple years anyway.

A milestone is just an arbitrary marker. In this case a moving one.
Here's another milestone, Gold ATH $1,923......I think, depends what sources you read.

Don't let Goat bullshit you. He has more money (btc and fiat) than he can count.
Fiat? I thought it was a Lambo.

Hello Aido - you've been quiet, I guess we can't push 'naming the mBTC' just now - but sooner or later, eh?
Indeed, we may need to start a campaign for using M
BTC (Megs) if it drops low.

You didn't understand me right. Dump fatigue causes the people who expected the dump to buy back in.
Yep, I'm now dump fatigued. Can't wait any longer, bought back in at a loss before it shoots over $700.
All in BTC again.

Why would people sit in fiat when there was a lot of time to buy <550
Greed !!!
.....and stupidity. I include myself in the latter (and a bit of the former).
