You would only need to change it= if there was a sub-satoshi hardfork, which doesn't seem necessary anyt= ime soon.

We shouldn't make any assumptions about the future pric= e of bitcoin to make the decision.

This sounds= very US-centric to me. Aren't you thinking in usd?

The currencies I'm familiar with are CHF, USD, EUR and G= BP, which all have roughly similar values. I guess such currencies make up = the bulk of the Bitcoin userbase at the moment.

"People seem to like mBTC" is just an ad populum fallacy: million= s of
flies can actually be wrong. Also you haven't showed them micros,
maybe they like it too.

Saying "it'= ;s already popular and would take work to change" is not really a fall= acy now, is it?

But anyway, this is getting silly.= You don't have to convince me. Go visit all the services I listed abov= e, plus all the ones I didn't find in my five minutes of searching, and= convince them they're wrong like the flies and switching is the best u= se of their time :o=C2=A0
