A “Satoshi” is the smallest unit of Bitcoin, named after its pseudonymous creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. One Bitcoin (BTC) is divisible into 100,000,000 Satoshis. Satoshis are used to represent tiny fractions of a Bitcoin and are essential for microtransactions and precise value representation on the Bitcoin network. The term “Satoshi” is commonly used when discussing Bitcoin’s price or when making reference to small amounts of the cryptocurrency. Understanding Satoshis is fundamental for Bitcoin users and enthusiasts who want to work with the cryptocurrency at a granular level.
