Re: Good news! Gavin Andresen: I think everybody should switch to talking in "bits"
yes , gavin is right , if we want more ppl use bitcoin , the unit(1 bitcoin) might be too large for normal users .satoshi (10^-8) is too small , so changing to bits sounds a good idea .
Agree. If the goal is to make bitcoin easier for the masses to use it (especially new people), than 'bit' doesn't really do the trick. More intuitive would be something close (in value) to $1, therefore 1mBTC (BTC0.001) makes more sense.
