Re: 1 Trillion coin supply you say? That's not really that many actually...

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.

That's easy for YOU to say... I mean... That requires actually using your brain and doing simple math.
The crypto world is inundated with low IQ miners and/or investors. Simple math simply does not compute.

I'm afraid numerical scales are not unversal.
For my understanding as I learned at school:
1,000,000 = 1 million
1,000,000,000,000 = 1 billion (or a million of millions)
1,000,000,000,000,000,000 = 1 trillion (or a million of -previous- billions)
... and so on.

so, I think we better state numbers instead of words :-)

Cheers,
