Sometimes when I’m on a flight taking off from a major city I look out at all the infrastructure and think, how the hell is all of this….GLOBALLY….going to be divided by 21 million. It’s totally surreal!

Quadrillion...that's how.

You mean to tell me bitcoins are divisible?

🤯

🤣

😱

they will have the smarter and healthier kids so yes 😁

There’s more than they think😱….

1 sat at a time😁

And then think about all the future capital and prosperity that will exist and how it needs to be squeezed into a finite 21 million

$/sat parity should do it

or you can look up to the stars and think the same

2.1 quadrillion 😉

I think there’s a misconception here. Not everything will have to be divided by 21 million, even when we reach hyperbitcoinization. Everything will have a price in Bitcoin, but that doesn’t mean that the total value of everything will have to sum to 21M Bitcoin.

Artic Orang-Utan your LNURL isn’t properly configured. Great comment you’re right!

Thanks for letting me know #[2] I’m on it

Indeed, but the value of any good will always trend toward the smallest unit of Bitcoin since everything but Bitcoin is infinite.

Can you elaborate? Trying to wrap my head around it.

this.

2.1 quadrillion 🤯

x 100,000,000 Sats will do the trick.

Yup, we’re so early. Thanks for the show with Luke Broyles. It was a great listen, really enjoyed it

..this 🙏

I think that is the reason we need sats! That will be more likely the unit we use. Pura Vida! 🤙

I had a similar thought looking at all the "value" I could see standing beside Sydney Harbour the other day.

What a time to be alive!

That’s why every sat counts! :)

Even if it’s just for helping your loved ones and dpeople in need in future 🤝

When I was in Dubai I was thinking the same thing. Part of me thought “am I delusional?”

I thought this was going to be a crumbling infrastructure post… Bitcoiners will fix that too

Last time I checked , each sat was divisible (internally within Lightning) to 3 decimal places. I'm thinking one day maybe our Lightning wallets go out to 8 places within the sat, much like Bitcoin L1 wallets go out to 8 places to get us to 100 million sats. Do we go that far?

Yes we can already divide a sat into 1000 pieces on lightning. As time goes on we'll use smaller amounts to pay for the same stuff.

When I'm on a flight I think of Kevin Hart saying, "I sit in a can of farts all day long."

Divided by 2.1 x 10^15 sats

this is one of those thoughts someone brings to my attention on a bi-weekly basis and I realize I don’t have enough

Your post is making waves.

All the time I am walking around like I woke up in the Matrix and see Bitcoin mapped to everything.

12 quadrillion.

21 quadrillion makes it easier 🧮... barely.

for me it's the grocery stote, dmv, etc. i look around at my fellow humans in a restaurant and marvel at how valuable each person is

Sats!!!

Such a good point Preston. Every time I see a big parking lot I laugh and think each of those cars is worth a Bitcoin right now....

lel

It’s easy, Preston. It will be divided by 21,000,000 BTC and then divided again by 100,000,000 sats. Should be plenty to justify a unit of account. 😁

okay now this is what im gonna be thinking every time i fly thx

It won’t be

It will be 2.1 quadrillion bro

That’s the total number of units 💟

I often think this when confronted by 6 lanes of traffic, or in a football stadium.

My favorite stat is the global millionaire count.
