“One Trillion Turtles: Coin Supply and Unit Economics” @_turtlecoin https://medium.com/@turtlecoin/one-trillion-turtles-coin-supply-and-unit-economics-5bfbea0aa1f1

The highlight from that article, remove the decimal places from these coins and this is how many units there are of each coin.

Code:
TRTL:               100,000,000,000,000

BTC:              2,100,000,000,000,000

IOTA:             2,779,530,283,277,761

LTC:               8,400,000,000,000,000

ETH: 97,879,990,190,000,000,000,000,000


1 Trillion + 2 decimals is less than 21 Million + 8 decimals.
I can do 2 decimal math in my head, 8 decimals, not so much...

1 Trillion sounds big compared to 21million, as soon as you remove the decimal and focus on actual units, it turns out to be less.
