Actually, I suppose this means I can't buy less than USD's precision worth of USD with BTSX?

Eg. buying 1.00001 quantity of USD with BTSX ought to fail?

I don't see the issue?
- It's allowed
- on the blockchain all numbers are integers ...
- precision is more a tradeoff between price and max amount of shares

I think I was getting confused with how the volume traded and lasts price numbers are represented - obviously the volume/prices traded are in the quote currency, so should obey the quote precision rules.

What happens if you have a market containing two assets which each have different precisions?
