This still doesn't clear things up (both "," and "." can be used as thousands and fractions separation symbol, depending on locale). A more international way is to use whitespace or nothing at all for thousands ($89 000 or $89000) and use "," or "." (depending on locale) for fractions only.

992 XMR is about $88000 ( https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/monero/ ), so the 2nd one
