    Mike Alfred's Parody Post

    The Board of Directors of Bitcoin discussed splitting the cryptocurrency 10 to 1 in order to make it more accessible to new investors, according to Mike Alfred's parody post. According to the tweet, this would raise the total quantity of Bitcoin to 210 million coins, replicating recent stock splits by businesses like Nvidia and Chipotle.

    A split would require a hard fork or network-wide consensus, which is practically impossible given Bitcoin's decentralized structure.None

    Community Reaction

    Well-known trading veteran Peter Brandt added some fuel to the fire by tagging Tuur Demeester, a passionate Bitcoin maximalist, and asking for opinions in a lighthearted gesture.

    In a lighthearted gesture to the ridiculousness of the proposal, Brandt asked for opinions.None

    Why the Idea is Absurd

    The idea of a Bitcoin split is absurd for several reasons. First off, such a change would require broad agreement from miners, developers, and nodes. Additionally, the value proposition of Bitcoin as a scarce deflationary asset, which is crucial to its attractiveness and utility, would be drastically altered by changing its supply in this way.

    The gradual reaction to the parody post about splitting Bitcoin highlights the importance of educating newcomers in the world of digital assets.
