Some people were saying that USA corporations like cashapp and whatever else can just rename sats to Bitcoins and that the masses will just accept it because the corporate elites always get their way

"Bitcoin" will always be used to refer to the network and the money, even if sats are used everywhere. A single sentence explanation is enough for most people and it's stupid to ret con the definition of a bitcoin over it.

I'm gonna call you dick from now on because of your nose.

2. Then you realise that normie media headlines will be 'bitcoin supply increased to 21 quadrillion' and people laugh when you claim bitcoin is sound money.

I like Sats but it can be confusing for newbs. I could never find a converter that lays it out very well so I made one. https://satsconvert.github.io/SatsConvert/

I might agree but what a coincidence that in Sanskrit, the word "sat" (सत्) is a foundational philosophical term. It carries meanings like: truth being existence reality what is eternal or unchanging It appears much in ancient Hindu scriptures like the Upanishads, the Bhagavad Gita, and the Rigveda. example: "Sat-chit-ananda" (सच्चितानन्द) is a famous triad meaning truth-consciousness-bliss—used to describe the nature of the divine or ultimate reality.

Yes, I think you hit the head on the nail. It’s like a psychological ‘stock spilt–’ nothing changed fundamentally about how bitcoin works except the UI consensus.

No.

Go Fuck Yourself.

Everyone’s entitled to their 2 Sats

Why avoid that fate? Worked well for Linux. Nobody mentions the L-word. Everyone uses Android.

Shut the fuck up

No, that is just retarded and will cause more confusion, leave it alone.

This argument is retarded

🤔 there are some generally good arguments for this, namely the perception of accessibility. I also have experienced the confusion from the uninitiated regarding bitcoin, and the perception that it is "out of reach" or "too late." A potential unintended consequence of this change however would be a devalued perception of bitcoin. "Strong" fungible currencies more often than not have subunits. Interestingly, the only fungible monetary instruments without subunits are highly inflated currencies where a singular unit is useless for economic use (VES, ZWL, LBP, TRY, ARS, IRR, SDG, SYP, AOA, ETB, HUF, DONG, etc) USD United States Dollar dollar cent EUR Euro euro cent GBP British Pound Sterling pound penny JPY Japanese Yen yen sen (obsolete, rarely used) CNY Chinese Yuan Renminbi yuan jiao/fen INR Indian Rupee rupee paise AUD Australian Dollar dollar cent CAD Canadian Dollar dollar cent CHF Swiss Franc franc rappen RUB Russian Ruble ruble kopeck BRL Brazilian Real real centavo MXN Mexican Peso peso centavo ZAR South African Rand rand cent NZD New Zealand Dollar dollar cent KRW South Korean Won won jeon (rare) SEK Swedish Krona krona öre NOK Norwegian Krone krone øre DKK Danish Krone krone øre TRY Turkish Lira lira kuruş THB Thai Baht baht satang SAR Saudi Riyal riyal halala AED UAE Dirham dirham fils PKR Pakistani Rupee rupee paisa EGP Egyptian Pound pound piastre NGN Nigerian Naira naira kobo The subunits have had no effect on the majority of the population's ability to understand the difference between units and subunits. Nuclear option probably not necessary.

Sure. I zapped you zero point zero zero zero zero zero zero twenty one bitcoin is so much cleaner.

How stupid. Y’all can call it whatever the fuck. We know what it is. Bitcoin is Bitcoin, Sats are Sats. You can choose to call it cows but that will not change what it is lol.

Retard note of the day!

No

Where’s the reverse zap button?🤔

Here’s my journey: 1. Realizing how preposterous, confusing and retarded this is. 2. Moving on with my day

Yeahhh… we're gonna need you to shut the fuck up on this one. 💁‍♂️ Stay humble & stack sats. 🤙

Disagree. I've never met anyone who was confused by the smallist division of a bitcoin being called a sat. Not any of the blue collar people I've spoken to, not my parents nor my grandparents.

Drop the Angstroem. Just meter. It's cleaner. The feature size of the next gen chip goes from 1.4 Angstroem to 1.4 meters. Do you see how stupid that sounds?

Every single one of those units actually have infinite precision; so yes. There are many things in the world that are measured in fractions of a cent. While uncommon in day to day commerce, it exists, and markets don't get confused. When USD was strong, dollars were out of reach, and cents were used day to day. People didn't get confused. I am not sure coddling the public and treating them like toddlers is the path towards a sefl-sovereign society. I do understand the arguments, but like many others, it is suspicious that this "decision" is an elitist, top-down initiative. It feels contrived.
