I think moving the decimal place to the right makes sense, rather than

live with the confusion of calling it mBTC

Just call them bitcoins(the old bitcoin is then the old bitcoin, which is then 1000 bitcoins after moving the decimal place 3 places to the right)


After the proposed changes,

1 old bitcoin = 1000 new bitcoins


I agree that people are more likely to buy a $1 bitcoin rather than a $1000 bitcoin


Bitcoin is losing market share because of delaying moving the decimal place to the right.
One reason why bitcoin is losing market share, is because people are more inclined to go and
buy alt coins because of the perceived high price of bitcoin at $1000

Move the decimal 3 places to the right, and regain alot of market share, is what I think(people will come back to bitcoin, and drop alt coins, when they see they can buy bitcoins at $1 with also having speculative chances of increase from there)

I'm not proposing that ALL the decimal points should be removed!  I'm proposing that the decimal point shifts to the right by 3 decimal places.  In other words, if the current Bitcoin =100,000,000 satoshis, the new Bitcoin =100,000 satoshis.

I'm not proposing that there should be more Satoshis printed.  The supply of money would stay exactly the same! 

Those who have 10 BTC will now have 10,000BTC -- nobody wants to dilute your precious Bitcoins.

Bitcoin can still be split into 1000,000,000,000,000 units i totally see where OP is coming from, about removing all the decimal places.

Nobody is proposing a substitution to the metric system. What's being proposed is to simplify the usage of the metric system. Simplification is also tought at school, I think you missed the class.

And looks like  they want to go after the  users  too.

i have  setup a  IRC channel for every one to get together  and  find a solution to this. would like it if the international community would help this  small group https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=386916.msg4163880#msg4163880

I was wondering if anyone had issues keeping their coin stored there since they really aren't a wallet. My account is level 2. I'm able to buy 10 bitcoin instant daily if needed and have all the access I need, but just a little weary about holding coin "online". In the meantime I have moved them to my local more secure wallet. I've been accumulating coins, and when they started to reach $8k-$9k, I just didn't feel good having them online. All I need is to wake up one day and get a notice from Coinbase that they've been hacked and lost all coins.

What are you talking about? How was you putting dollars on to Blockchain.info and how was they leaking coins?

Do you keep any bitcoin in your coinbase wallet? I've always sent everything to my local offline wallet, but it is at those times where you need some bitcoin right away and wish you had the access instantly. I was just wondering.

Also, is that Google Authenticator two-factor for just mobile devices? Does it actually give you two-factor on your computer?

in the last month alone i have seen two new altcoins posted with a trojan / keylogger
a well known coin by a well known coin spammer and coin cloner for hire also added one to his last wallet version..
so yeah they are out in force !

the guy mentioned earlier how easy it would be and he's right..

a lot of thee guy don't even make the coins.. and often they get premined as they are delivered

the more you dig the more you find.. there is no limit to the scummy greedy behavior in this scene

i today found yet another fake malware bundle uploaded to torrent sites..
some guy has been at it hard.. i have flagged about 6 uploads he has done (all Bitcoin related or Altcoin related) last few months

and miners are commonly flagged as malware by AV software and rightfully so because the code may be clean but its bundled with malware
and has been for years.. the two most popular things for malware coders these days is to infect you to jack your machine for mining or just steal wallets
or even to get Facebook likes.

so yeah i could go on and on forever citing examples but who cares ?

maybe rather than posting stupid little stickied warnings the admins here could expose the little pricks doing it..
after all they should be able to see they are being posted from the same ip's (many of these guys prob have a 100 accounts here)
all they do is lock and delete the topic.. and let the douches keep doing it

Blockchain doesn't have an exchange

What fees?

This is what they answered me using QQ :

No idea what it means at all ...
More than a week with my funds locked with no reason at all.
