I recall this being considered for version 5.0 due out next Spring, but 
I haven't checked the status on the feature lately. Meanwhile, create 
invoices for printing/e-mailing, but do not post them. Edit them either 
within GnuCash or some other editor to indicate they are 'Quotes'. (a 
quote is not a transaction and should never be posted to your books)

A bit trickier to implement, though it might be part of the above 
change. As I noted, I haven't looked at the progress in some time. Maybe 
check Bugzilla to find it and chime in on making it part of the feature, 
or file a separate bug for it. (might already be filed too, I'm not certain)

That isn't likely to happen for some time for special reasons. GnuCash 
sticks with 'official' currencies. If any crypto are added to that list 
by the governing bodies, they should auto-appear available in GnuCash. 
In the meantime, there are of course work-arounds.
