如果它真的发展壮大，最终全世界 68 亿人最多只有 2100 万枚币。
但别担心，内部还有 6 位没显示出来的小数，一共 8 位。它显示 1.00，内部是 1.00000000。如果未来出现大规模通缩，软件可以显示更多小数位。
如果跟小数打交道太烦，我们可以改显示小数点的位置。钱的数额不变，只是小数点和千分位的约定不同。比如小数点右移 3 位，之前显示 1.00000 的，现在显示 1,000.00。
英文原文
Eventually at most only 21 million coins for 6.8 billion people in the world if it really gets huge.
But don't worry, there are another 6 decimal places that aren't shown, for a total of 8 decimal places internally. It shows 1.00 but internally it's 1.00000000. If there's massive deflation in the future, the software could show more decimal places.
If it gets tiresome working with small numbers, we could change where the display shows the decimal point. Same amount of money, just different convention for where the ","'s and "."'s go. e.g. moving the decimal place 3 places would mean if you had 1.00000 before, now it shows it as 1,000.00.
