Description

I know there isn’t a unicode symbol for Bitcoin (yet), but re‐using the existing currency symbol for Baht is bad form.
To me `¤` (the universal currency symbol) would be a reasonable placeholder, as I assume in future more cryptocoins may be added?

eg,

```
✔ "user" on github: …
✔ admin of the DNS zone for …
¤ bitcoin 145C…
¤ dogecoin 32FE…
```
