Hey guys,

I would like to ask this simple question :

If I have 2BTC it is better to say "two bitcoin" or "two bitcoins" ? I know it's a stupid question , but I'm interested to know it.

Thanks for the attention , have a nice day.

Currency systems are usually singulare tantum, e.g. its 1 Euro, 2 Euro, etc. There just is no plural of the word even though its commonly used as Euros. The word "Euros" would refer to a number of coins, but not the value the currency represents. All that aside, Bitcoin has no central authority that can just define the grammatical rules for the words refering to it.

bitcoin.org refers [1] to several coins as bitcoins

Bitcoins can be transferred from Africa to Canada in 10 minutes. There is no bank to slow down the process, level outrageous fees, or freeze the transfer. You can pay your neighbors the same way as you can pay a member of your family in another country.
