For sure. We didn't pick 10^10 scaling. It's just what some massive brokerages/exchanges actually use. The fact that these were not necessarily crypto made us take note.

At the same time, you can understand that 10^10 scaling is at least significantly more precise. And I can imagine these things are viral too, who you trade with, also determines your minimum resolution. You can always downsample in presentation, but once downsampled in storage, it's impossible to upsample.

It also wasn't the only use case. But it tipped the scales.

Yeah, was just curious if the brokerages explained their reasoning in detail. Even if it's just viral, someone big had to have a reason to start the trend.

Hey! Thanks for your curiosity. This was news to us too. And I think we spent about a year thinking about this before we swapped for a bigger piggy! :)
