Looks like they're going for using ₿ as the denomination for sats.

I wonder if we end up using different terms for the same thing. Bitcoins, bits, sats. We call our fiat different things too. Dollars, bucks, or pounds and quids, and more slang locally depending where you live.

When gangsta rappers rap about how much bitcoin they have, what new slang will there be? What is the bitcoin equivalent of "racks", "bands" and "Gs" ? :P

the dumbest idea I've ever seen. Bitcoin is already widely recognized. Imagine if I called cents "dollars"—1 USD would be 100 dollars. It's just absurd.
