True, but caution is always required with Bitcoin. That is just the way it is.

Its not a reason, just use a prefix. The price is: 1 M (mega) XBT, or  234 kXBT instead of 234 000

Thousand separator help you to read and input big XBT numbers. (1 XBT = 100 satoshis)

1,234,567 XBT ≈ 1.2 BTC ≈ 1,234 mBTC

Typical transaction fees: 100 - 500 XBT
Dust limit: 54 XBT
