User:Bcat/Bank

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome to Bcat's WikiBank. This bank for tracking money similar to the bank at WikiMoney. Currently, anybody can create an account. However, please remember that the WikiBank's money is not real and that this bank is just for fun. Feel free to ask questions about the bank on its talk page.

Note: This bank was created in response to the blocking of Bank of Wikipedia (as a role account). However, that user is not a sock puppet of mine.

[edit] Currency

The bank's main monetary unit is the beta (β). Betas are divisible.

This is a temporary name. I'm offering 5β to anyone who thinks of a better name for the bank's currency. Please post suggestions on the talk page. — Bcat (talk | email) 6 July 2005 02:55 (UTC)
