The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a harmless code-size optimization. It replaces the mathematical pow() function (used to calculate 10 raised to a small power) with a simple lookup table of powers of 10, allowing the compiler to remove the floating-point pow() library code and save about 3.9 KB of firmware space. The displayed asset amounts are computed the same way as before.

Recommended action

No security action needed. Treat as a normal firmware size/optimization improvement.

Security signals we found

No strong security signals were identified.
