I'm a fan of the Australian single transferable vote but that's difficult to do with a forum poll. I think I might reset the poll and leave two options

3,999,999,999 (4 billion)
8,000,000,000

Might be a good idea yes.
If the only goal is to get away from 4, why do you want to double it ?

We've had this discussion already - 4 is a bad number in Asia and 8 is a good number, to get 4 to 8 is a simple multiplication of 2. To get to 5, 6 or 7 has to involve fractions. I'm not a fan of burning 1 or 10 stakes as personally I feel people would just round up in their heads to 4 billion.

Capitalization wise both numbers have an impact. 4 billion might result in less sell off as the initial stakeholders may be more determined to remain NEMillionaires but at the cost that 4B coins might alienating to several cultures. You can flip this around for the 8 billion, might be more culturally sensitive but it could also result in initial stakeholders going "geez I have 2 million coins, I'm going to sell off half"
