Satoshi told us to move the decimal place 3 places!  Cheesy

Exactly . Bits is stupid. Greek prefixes are stupid.
Just move the decimal. 3 places bitcoins revalue at 50 cents each, and the total number available goes up from 21 million to 21 billion.

Easy.

You don't need to rename or make new units and confuse the fuck shit out of everyone in the world.
You smart guys like the Greek prefixes and all that ...I know ... I get it , but if you want bitcoins to be successful , you better think about the dumbest person you know , and figure out the best way to handle it from their perspective.

I mean shit, try telling the average mcdonalds burger flipper you want to rename cents to uDollars and call 1000 dollars a mega dollar , and 100 dollars a centadollar, and 10 cents a decadollar or whatever , yeah I know I used the wrong prefixes, but that doesn't matter because either way their head is gonna explode.
