I agree with you.
I'm not really arguing for a bitcoin emoji. Just against the McDonald's brand comparison.
BTC is not mainstream enough (and never will be) to be needed in everyday text speak.
It's also a scam. But those who fell for it and NFTs want to downtown cuz mad
How so?
The coin itself is not a scam.
However, its main usage is to receive payments from scams or any other kind of computer-related crime really.
