BTC needs to move its decimal point.

Like Berkshire Hathaway:

Investors appear to like Berkshire Hathaway stock in the $60s and even the $70s more than they liked it at roughly $3500 a share.

Berkshire shareholders approved a 50-for-1 stock split of Berkshire's Class B shares yesterday. Trading began today.

The lower price is seen as an opening for small investors who couldn't afford the old four-figure price tag.

At yesterday's meeting, Warren Buffett told shareholders that the increased trading volume and liquidity for the Class B shares after the split could make it the key driver of Berkshire's market value. "The B may be the tail that wags the dog now."

When the price first went over $1000 some sites switched to using mBTC ... but then the prices went under $1000 and there were complaints about the small numbers being confusing.

You can't win.

That's an issue that doesn't exist for Bitcoin though-- you can purchase FAR less than one bitcoin at a time.

I didn’t remember the mBTC, that feels like a reasonable solution since it’s just psychology.

It’d probably go up, as a result, too. :-)

The problem is fragmentation, this would require upgrading thousands of apps in close proximity to avoid consumer confusion when decimal places switch across platforms
