You Don’t Need 1 Bitcoin to Win.

Many people look at Bitcoin’s price and think, I will never afford a whole one. But what they don’t realize is, you don’t need a whole Bitcoin to start.
Bitcoin is divisible into 100 million smaller units called (Satoshi), or sats for short. Just like a dollar has cents, Bitcoin has sats. Even as the price of Bitcoin rises, sats remain accessible.
For example, if Bitcoin is $100,000 1,000 sats would still cost just $1. That makes it easier for everyday people to stack and save without breaking the bank.
In the end, Bitcoin isn’t just about owning one whole coin — it’s about understanding value, using sound money, and stacking what you can.
Have you started stacking sats yet?

Bitcoin is more than $100k already, so stacking your SATs won't be a bad idea.

I suspect anyone who comes to this site is well aware of it.
But related, this is why we should stop overloading the term Bitcoin. Let's reserve it to refer to the monetary system, not a unit.
The unit of account on the chain is satoshis. And that is the term we should embrace. If that is too small, 100 sats is a Bit, which is more relatable for transactions.

Thanks for the points. Using 'sats' or even 'bits' for clarity in transactions makes a lot of sense — especially for beginners getting into Bitcoin or sats.
