Note that I did not say whether this was a good or bad thing, I just think you’re overthinking billion dollar fintech startup scarcity given a single bitcoin is basically a billion dollars. Those folks are also more likely to identify themselves as fintech during an introduction in my experience, and Stripe undoubtedly plays in the crypto pool, so it fits

- zibzab 5y agoI have always wanted to ask this: Is zero a positive number? And do we always round up? - Possible owner of a mildly successful $xT company.
- OJFord 5y agoUsage varies, there are a few notations for specifying whether the set of natural numbers/positive integers includes zero when it matters. 'Always round up' sounds more like the ceiling function (or ceil•abs) - usually rounding means to the nearest integer, or whatever we're rounding to.
