PLEASE NOTE: This is STRICTLY a pre-experimental draft. Do NOT use these units. It exists for comment only. See the Discussion page

This concept is designed with N goals:

  • Unified standard Bitcoin unit for all radices (UBC)
  • UBC divisible by 2 fractional places in all standard radices
  • UBC divisible by common fractions (half, third, quarter, fifth, sixth, eighth, and ninth)

Other Benefits:

  • Integer values remain an integer in any radix

Significant flaws:

  • No standard radix can exactly represent the Satoshi (raw bitcoin unit)
  • It is impossible to detect what radix is intended for most given values
