Basically, 10 000 BYR (old Belarussian ruble) = 1 BYN (new Belarussian ruble).
Belarussians used to have bills of millions' worth of BYR. Now that this happened today, young people fill social networks with photographs of themselves holding the old bills "hustlin'". Their change was banknotes; now it's coins.
Fun fact: 1 USD = 2.01 BYN. Another fun fact: a subway ticket now costs 0.55 BYN. That's mighty impressive for a contemporary Russian (60+ and ~25 in local currency, respectively).
