They are capable of understanding dollars and cents, bitcoin and sats

Ask random people on the streets how many people recognize the word "sats", then do the same with ₿

redo millions of lines of code

using ₿ as the sats symbol is actually a very simple UI change. instead of displaying "sats", display ₿. that's it. it took only one dev and a few hours to get it on Bitkit

We said they were capable of understanding dollars and cents and thus, also understanding bitcoin and sats. Not that regular Joe has heard of sats. We know very few people have heard of / know about sats, but that'll change as adoption increases. People didn't know what the @ symbol was in 1999... but that changed

That's your code base that's obviously not super complex or old. Many are old / complex or simply just not updated or maintained as well. Then there's all the books, the written articles (like the dozens on our site) endless podcasts, YouTube videos etc etc etc.
