>>16583426
It's like "internet", when can you use a plural for it? 'bitcoin' doesn't refer to how much value you have stored, it refers to the whole thing, aside from forks, there is only one bitcoin. just like there is only one internet/world wide web

>>	Anonymous Tue Dec 17 00:41:59 2019 No.16583572 >>16583505 I've never heard anyone say it like that, and as we all know from that autistic fag Wittgenstein, use determines legitimacy of language.

>I have one ounce of gold
>I have two ounces of gold's

>I have one barrel of oil
>I have two barrels of oils

Or really what the confusion stems from:
>Somebody sent me two Bitcoins using the Bitcoin network.
The protocol and individual pieces of currency are two different things. I don't know if the currency becomes plural when specifically referenced.
