Bitcoin has a 21 total of 21million coins that could ever be produced.
I think that in itself hinders Bitcoin immensely, I mean there are over 6billion people on Earth, 300million+ just in America, Billion+ in China, etc etc.
Most people, including myself are turned off by the fact that you have to divide bitcoin into ridiculous decimal places. Most people also don't care about having to do the math behind it to figure how much bitoin is worth this object etc etc. It would of been much better if there were different types of bitcoin, like bitcoin=1bitcoin, macrobitcoin=.5bitcoin, microbitcoin= .25 bitcoin etc etc.
This also leads me to believe, that bitcoin was created as a fun Project by Satoshi, if Bitcoin was meant to be serious, then I'm sure it would of had a more realistic number than 21million total coin supply for long term use, this means bitcoin wasn't meant to serious and regarded as it is today by Satoshi..
From first look with the perspective on someone who never seen or heard about bitcoin before, If I saw that Bitcoin had a total coin supply of 21million coins, or that 21million were the max amount of coins that would ever exist and the ridiculous decimal places and math required for bitcoin..I would bypass Bitcoin easily..This is what most people think when they see or hear of bitcoin...
