So far I have not seen any reasonable name except for "bit". I also tried to come up with something else (e.g.naka, toshi, etc.) to avoid the confusion with bits used in computing, but I was not satisfied with neither of them. Then I though about "credit", which is more-or-less established in video games and sci-fi literature and people are already used to sentences like "Not enough credits" or "This item costs 10000 credits", because of this. Also it would be particularly funny if these sci-fi pieces predicted the future by actually defining it. ;-) Another options might be "cubit" or "crebit", but the latter is sometimes used as a compound word meaning both "credit" and "debit" such as in "You can use crebit cards here". Also this Wikipedia source is a list of sometimes rather funny possibilites: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fictional_currencies -- Best Regards / S pozdravom, Pavol Rusnak <st...@gk2.sk> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
