Observation on decimal separator
Looks like @kid4life is selling byteball from the steem distribution.
Check out the post below if interested in buying from him:

https://steemit.com/byteball/@kid4life/can-i-sell-my-byteball-wallet

The post had a screenshot showing 6,53213 GB and I was thinking, that's a weird place to put a comma.
I read it as 653213 GB ( given what I am used to using commas for a separator for thousands). Given that the total supply out there is 662811 now, per coinmarketcap that's obviously wrong.

and then the body of the post said 6,532 Byteball coins,  and I was still thinking this guy/gal is rich.
In the country I am from writing 6,532 means 6 thousand five hundred and thirty two!! I was thinking how the hell is he going to sell 390k usd of byteball on steemit, when bittrex does 25 -50k vol a day?



But obviously I realise this in reality is just over 6 and a half Gigabytes!.

This is actually an interesting observation in terms of worldwide use of decimal separator which I hadn't learned about before.

Green countries use comma, blue countries - british influenced mostly, use decimal to seperate whole numbers from fractions of units. 

6.53 GB  in blue countries is the same as  6,53 GB in green countries
