The great thing about standards is that there’s a lot to choose from. 😂😢

It seems all cryptocurrency exchanges use data from CoinMarketCap, so I
would have thought that to be as authoritative a list
as any.

https://coinmarketcap.com/all/views/all/

I'm in the UK, and have never dealt with anyone in El Salvador, but it
seems odd for an accounting package not to support a currency that's legal
tender in a certain country.

I see that there are some minor currencies not listed in ISO 4217, but
around $39,000,000,000 of bitcoin have been traded over the last 24-hours.
It is hardly a minor currency.

I guess this gives me an incentive to get GnuCash to compile on linux. Then
adding cryptocurrencies would (I assume) be fairly easy.
