https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stock_split hints that scarcity of tokens doesn't affect marketcap.

Yes, 10^-9 IOTA has the same features as 1 IOTA.

Yes, both transactions will be represented with the same number of bytes. Though I think you were going to ask something else but you can't find good wording because clearly don't understand difference between data and information.

But there are no other "features" in IOTA besides micropayments. Your device can only transfer IOTAs to another device.

But you can't pay 0.0000001 IOTA for something (e.g. electricity) that costs 1 IOTA.

It's a sophism. Of course, the first half of the sentence is correct, but what if market decides that even 1 IOTA is not a fair exchange for a cup of coffee?

Im not arguing that, its obvious.

For the market to value a IOTA on 1.5€, it needs to have that value. And im saying that if technically 10^-9 IOTA does absolutely everything you can do with 1 IOTA, the value of 1 IOTA will dilute.

What is the technical difference between a 1 cent payment and a 1 billion USD payment?
Technically they would do the same as well, wouldn't they?

Lets say you want to use a IOTA feature (like you can create a nxt asset for 1000 nxt), which will require you 1 IOTA. And the ICO has 1000 equal in % users. Each has 1M IOTAs

You have 1000 users from whom you can buy . And 1 IOTAs would be 0.0001% of their share. That creates an offer and demand.
If the market determines 1 IOTA is worth 1 $, those persons would be willing to sacrifice that 0.0001% of their share for 1 $.

If for your purpose you can do what you need with 10^-9 IOTAs, you only need to buy 0.0000000000001% of the share of one of those persons. That is a different offer and demand situation in which the prize of 1 IOTA would be much less. Im sure any of those initial investors would love to sell 0.000000000001% of their share for 1$ cent


In Nxt, with 10^9 coins in existence, you need 1/ 10^9 of those to be able to make a transaction.

While in IOTA with 10^9 coins in existence, you need 1/10^18 to make it.

This creates the scarcity of coins you need to use the network, which is limited (less limited in IOTA).
That is the illussion im referring to when estimating the market cap users will give to IOTA.

I wasn't trolling. We don't have enough information to predict what will happen in 1 month.

A) I buy 1 car with 30 BTC via BTC tx
B) I buy 10 car with 300 BTC via BTC tx

Both of case A) and case B) use the same feature of BTC, value transfer and payment, so why I should pay 30 BTC in case A), while pay 300 BTC in case B)?
