So after all that .... any update on opinions of how bitcoin should be commonly measured?
TBC!

No, seriously, that's why we have the different units. If you're making micro-payments, cBTC or mBTC might make sense for now. If you're doing a huge payment, consider kBTC. If you use Tonal, you'll probably want to use ᵇTBC for most payments. In a few years, the value changes will probably adjust everything to mBTC/TBC (for normal sizes) and μBTC/TBCᵐ for micro-payments.

The network tries to produce one block per 10 minutes. It does this by automatically adjusting how difficult it is to produce blocks.

We just moved the decimal at witcoin.com on most posts because we can  Smiley

.01 starts to look expensive compared to .001 or .0001

The more you believe in Bitcoin, and the more you show you do to other people, the faster the real value will soar!
