Because XMR can be used as a unit of account on services like moneromarket.io, I’d like to propose to extend monero denominations page (getmonero.org/resources/moneropedia/denominations.html) with symbols which would make accounting easier.

Plural of monero is moneroj, which makes sense to use ɱ as a currency symbol.

Moreover, xmrchain.net already adopted this writing system for transaction fees. fee/per_kB [µɱ]

It takes less space to write “1 µɱ” than “1 micronero” or “0.000001 XMR”

Name Base 10 Amount Symbol
piconero 10-12 0.000000000001
nanonero 10-9 0.000000001
micronero 10-6 0.000001 μɱ
millinero 10-3 0.001
centinero 10-2 0.01
decinero 10-1 0.1
monero 100 1 ɱ
decanero 101 10 daɱ
hectonero 102 100
kilonero 103 1,000
meganero 106 1,000,000

Some examples:

1 Wh of power 12 μɱ

Average rent in the US 12.4 ɱ

A pound of bread 16 mɱ

5 bedroom house in LA 16 kɱ
