The email conversation covers two main topics. The first topic is about conducting a user experiment on the use of BTC/mBTC/uMTC and retrieving the results after some time to determine the most used option. The argument is made that the winner will always be the default, which may work if the default was randomly chosen. However, there are no culturally-neutral common standards for currency and pricing, making it challenging to decide on a universal standard for Bitcoin units and how it should be presented in order to facilitate user adoption. Additionally, there is debate about the adoption of mBTC as the standard, with some suggesting uBTC would be better and others proposing a new three-digit symbol for uBTC to comply with accounting software practices. There is also mention of different configurations offered by MultiBit HD and NIST guidelines for representation of SI unit symbols.The second topic discussed in the email thread is the availability of a free O'Reilly book titled "Graph Databases," which is a definitive guide to graph databases and their applications. The book has been written by three acclaimed leaders in the field, and the download link for the book is provided in the email. The email thread also includes information about the Bitcoin-development mailing list and its subscription link.
