Change the decimal now or it's dead. Wake up people !
How about we call one-millionth of a BTC (i.e. a micro-bitcoin) a
Finney? One million
Finneys equal a Bitcoin.
Conveniently, 100 Satoshis equal a
Finney, so we can use a convenient two digits after the decimal point, just like dollars and cents. So 0.0015 BTC becomes 1500.00
Finneys.
Forex traders don't like more than two digits after the decimal, so this notation should suit them perfectly.
A
Finney is currently worth around a tenth of a cent, so it will remain a useful unit as the price of a bitcoin rises.
The Finney is named in honor of Hal Finney, of course.
Why not Finney ? It sound absurd to rename it "Finney" but it is much better than Bitcoin. As you said,
