Imagine having this conversation with a normie a thousand times over
Normie: “Wait, there’s 2.1 Quadrillion Bitcoins? I thought it was 21 Million?”
Me: “The base unit changed after BIP 177. The total supply didn’t.”
Normie: “So… how is that not inflation? Is it like fiat now?”
Even if BIP 177 was a good idea (it’s not), it simply isn’t going to happen. And if it did, it would cause more confusion for normies, not less
