Why is it called a satoshi?
The unit is named after Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin. The name came from the community and became standard around 2010–2011.
How do I convert sats to dollars?
Multiply the number of sats by the Bitcoin price and divide by 100,000,000. At $100,000 per bitcoin, 1 sat is worth $0.001 and $1 buys 1,000 sats.
