Listen, I understand what you’re saying that COIN = 100000000 doesn’t include decimal notation, but that definition is still arbitrary and could be changed. The supply-relevant constants are all expressed in terms of COIN so when the subsidy was 50 * COIN, how COIN is defined is arbitrary where the total supply is denominated in COIN.

via a *supply increase* of the base unit
You're talking about *dilution*, like the other guy, which I never said. I'm being literal, factual.
It doesn’t increase the supply of COIN just how COIN is defined. Yes the number of technical base units would increase, but everyone’s stash would likewise be increased by a factor of 10 which, when denominated in dollars, would have no effect on the purchasing power of the individual sat. That’s all Im saying, maybe we’re speaking past each other. It’d be more like a stock split where it would affect everyone’s stack simultaneously resulting in no change to the purchasing power of a given stash. Of course there would be psychological effects.
This is the L. This is incorrect. This does not dilute supply.
*would have no effect on the purchasing power of the individual STASH not sat here. Sorry mistyped there.
Annes stash goes from 1,000 to 10,000 but is still worth the same in purchasing power (e.g. USD)
