        BigInteger number = BigInteger.Parse("~123123123123", new BigIntegerFormatProvider());
        Console.WriteLine(number.ToString(new BigIntegerFormatProvider()));

    }
}

public class BigIntegerFormatProvider : IFormatProvider
{
    public object GetFormat(Type formatType)
    {
        if (formatType == typeof(NumberFormatInfo))
        {
            NumberFormatInfo numberFormat = new NumberFormatInfo();
            numberFormat.NegativeSign = "~";
            return numberFormat;
        }
        else
