The Ethereum Symbol

cat ethereum_info.txt
'Ethereum' is often used interchangeably to refer to Ether(s) the blockchain's native asset. There are various symbols used, both to refer to the entire Ethereum network but also to ether, the currency. Ethereum does not have a Unicode symbol in the same way that Bitcoin (₿) does. There is an initiative underway to change this. In the meantime, Ξ has been designated as the official symbol.

For example: I transferred 5 ETH to John on the Ethereum blockchain. Alternatively, I transferred 5 Ξ to John on the Ethereum blockchain.

The other Unicode symbols unofficially used to represent Ethereum:

Ethereum Ticker

Ethereum (ETH) trades under the ticker $ETH. Any product trading under a different ticker symbol is not the native Ether asset, but could be a derivative, financial product like an ETF, or another representation of Ethereum.
