What do you think about this idea?
What would be the benefits/downsides?

Why would we want that?
I see no benefits. The downside is the same as removing cents, dollars, hundreds, thousands, millions and keeping billions.
I think sats makes more sense, its too bad bitcoin isnt on the metric scale though, we should have 1 sat, 1ksat, 1msat, 1gsat=1bitcoin. Lost opportunity.
Send me a legacy bitcoin and I'll send you 2 of the new ones.
The word ‘sats’ should be as resistant to change as the bitcoin network is.
Stupid. No need to explain.

ATROCIOUS.
Singular "bitcoin" for the whole unit. "bitcoins" is Boomer shit no matter which level of denomination we're talking about.
Plural "sats" for the fractional unit. It just sounds cool.
"It's raining, there's waters on my window."
"Ah, I love hiking, breathe in those fresh airs!"
"Ug, the beach, I have sands in my shoes."
No Sir.
1BTC = 1BTC
1BTC > 1sat
😂
Sats are actually bitcoins
But those with Adjustment Disorders like most older people with conservative values, and even younger ones with AS, HFA, or ASD have full-on adjustment disorders too and will react violently when faced with sudden, unwanted change so it's something to deal with, because only calmer minds make better decisions
But bitcoins are literally, COINS
The full amount should have been SATOSHI or to make it ungeneric-sounding, call it satomoto, satoshimo, whichever sounds nice
Oh, well that makes sense.
2,100,000,000,000,000 is the total max supply of sats
18,446,744,073,709,551,615 is the maximum value of an unsigned 64 bit integer.
I forget now. It's been a long time since I looked at the bitcoin code.
No!
