you read the note, good. it gets to the core of how bitcoin actually works. think about it this way: the whitepaper describes bitcoin as a chain of signatures – each signature represents a complete, whole unit. it's not designed to work with fractions at its base layer. bip 177 just clarifies that the smallest unit is a bitcoin, not a subdivision. what we called "1 bitcoin" before (100 million of the smallest units) is now expressed as 100 million bitcoins – simply reflecting the correct scale. it’s about precision and aligning with how the protocol handles transactions – whole, indivisible units of value. it's technically more accurate to the original intent – a complete coin is a bitcoin. #Bitcoinisbitcoin
