This worked for me. I put the shortcut "btcsym" which then proposes the symbol for correction when I typed it.

Could you be more specific what input language and Android version this is? Following your instructions, the Bitcoin symbol does not show up in English (US) on stock Android 10 when I get related symbols for $. The keys are also located in different positions for me.
