So imagine the govt says yeah bitcoin is cool there's some features we especially like, such as the SI units. So we're adopting that 'feature' to the dollar.
The old dollar is now worth 0.0000001 new dollars. 1 old cent is now 0.00000001 new dollars. There'll be milli and micro new dollars. Changeover at end of year so you all have time to learn it.
How well do you think that's going to go down with the general population?
dyask, will be the only one with his .0000001 dollars converting them to .0000004324213 yen and making fun of everyone else for not being able to do so while using those converted funds to buy kiddie porn on the internet...
The rest of us, aka the general population, will be screwed because micro and milli dollar conversion will be ridiculous to use on a regular basis...
Most of us have come to the common sense rationale (except Dyask), that the less zeros and the more we clean up BTC, the better it will be in the long run...
