What is a Satoshi?
🪙 The Smallest Unit of Bitcoin
A Satoshi (sat) is the smallest unit of Bitcoin. Just like a dollar is divided into 100 cents, one Bitcoin is divided into 100,000,000 satoshis.
1 BTC = 100,000,000 sats
1 sat = 0.00000001 BTC
The unit is named after Satoshi Nakamoto, the anonymous creator of Bitcoin.
💡 Why Use Satoshis?
Easier to understand small amounts: Instead of saying “0.00005 BTC”, you can say “5,000 sats”.
Better for everyday transactions: As Bitcoin’s price increases, buying whole bitcoins becomes expensive. Sats make smaller purchases practical.
Lightning Network uses sats: The Lightning Network (Bitcoin’s layer-2 payment solution) prices things in satoshis.
