It's easy to understand he meant 21 millions coins.. 21M bitcoins.

This actually advocates for calling everything Bitcoin. “By just moving the decimal point.”

Yes, I agree with you it can be seen like that even if before it clearly said "there's 21million coins for the world" and later says as you well pointed that you could just move the decimal point because of the granularity of those 21M coins.

.. Anyway yes, rereading it I agree with you that indeed he kinda advocates for it..

.. but also he clearly doesn't say it as it would contradict the concept about 21M IMO.. anyway good point yours that I didn't catch initially.

21M

🧡💡Yes

As the one himself Satoshi intended it doesn’t matter.

Ship has sailed.

It is what it is.

Not going to change after all this time.

that was the bootstrapping period. we’re upgrading to the adoption period.

“it might be easier to change where the decimal is placed”
