What is a sat?
A sat, short for satoshi, is the smallest unit of bitcoin. There are 100 million sats in one bitcoin, named after Satoshi Nakamoto.
Why use sats instead of bitcoin?
As the price grows, whole bitcoin feels out of reach. Sats keep everyday amounts readable. Buying 50 dollars of bitcoin means buying millions of sats.
