Dear John,
Thank you for the write up.
To further explore this idea, did you consider the idea of dropping
"bitcoin" and keeping "sats" as it is already?
Benefits:
1) We don't re-purpose the existing label of "bitcoin" to represent
something else
2) "sats" is already well defined throughout the system, this minimizes
changes
3) "bitcoin" can live on to represent the network "Bitcoin: a decentralized
peer to peer network"
4) We preserve the honor to Satoshi Nakamoto, the prescient honored founder
of Bitcoin
5) Easy to roll out, we just stop using "bitcoin" over time because we all
agreed it represents an awkward decimalization.
Best regards,
Mike

that aims to redefine the "bitcoin" unit to match Bitcoin=E2=80=

stead be represented directly as 100 million bitcoins, while the smallest i=
ndivisible unit becomes the unit of reference=E2=80=94simply "one bitc=

values with eight decimal places.</p><p><strong>Key points:</strong></p><u=
