Two decimal places instead of three #182

Looking at the latest staging built, I really like rounding the numbers after the decimal:

Can we do rounding down to two decimal places for all cases? Thanks!

I can see how this rounding might look nice, but I'd argue that the explorer is a utility and that it should show STX values with full accuracy.

For UI inspiration and examples:

I'm with @zone117x here, loss of precision could also come off as inaccurate or buggy for users / investors.

@jeffdomke care to weigh in?

Yeah, tend to agree. Pretty normal for tokens to be moved around with extreme fractional units and rounding could lead to user error or misunderstanding.
