1. We said 21 million BTC. 2. Telling people that they can't afford any "bitcoin" is bad and needs a solution If you think the solution is to tell them about this new thing called sats, fine. But let's not pretend that introducing a whole obscure word is better.. "sats" means nothing to anyone unless they already own bitcoin, even then it is iffy. View quoted note →

If there are 21 Million Bitcoin, the best way to present it is by using land as a metaphor. There are 21 Million Square Kilometers. Each of those can be split into 100,000,000 square centimeters. A Centimeter is not a Kilometer. A Sat is not a Bitcoin. The objective is to stack sats, not argue that they are Bitcoins.
We don’t have to do anything in 2025. people can learn themselves. Sats are easy to understand because it’s even by the sound very similar to „cents“. How much explanation did you need to understand that as a child? Dollar and cent Euro and cent Everyone on this planet gets it. No matter what currency they use. Now it’s also Bitcoin and sats Unbelievable idiotic this whole discussion.

Glad that you don't see a problem, now you can ignore people who talk about unit bias and keep stacking sats. It is not a big deal either way. We have bigger fish to fry.

Sure, all you have to do is pay me 20,000 bitcoins and I will shut up about this issue forever.

Fuck it. When FIAT is painful enough, they will all learn. Quickly and permanently
