    Hecta is a term commonly used in the cryptocurrency community to refer to a quantity of 100 units of a specific cryptocurrency. It's a way to simplify discussions about large amounts of cryptocurrency without having to write out all the zeros. For example, if someone says they have 1 hecta of Ripple, it means they have 100 Ripple tokens. It's a handy way to express large quantities in a concise manner. So, if you see the term hecta being used in the context of cryptocurrency, it's simply a way of referring to 100 units of that cryptocurrency.
