that's a good question. Right now we use $ which means dollars. There is a symbol for cents which is ¢ but we still use $ 0.32 when using cents. I think the correct term might be 0.32¢
Is there an actual symbol for sats? I remember reading somewhere they made up Bitcoin denominations but the denominations don't have symbols. We only have the ₿ which means a whole Bitcoin.
Everyone is just using the word sats because no symbol exists. Maybe they should invent one.
I prefer using bits over sats, but bits doesn't have a symbol either. I guess we could use ₿ but it would get confusing.
For example ₿21 might be confusing, does it mean 21 Bitcoins or 21/sats /21 bits
maybe we should invent a symbol for bits
lower case b? with those 2 lines or 1 line going down it? or something different? I dunno maybe we can chat chatgpt or someone to invent it b̷̷
I hope we do move to bits instead of sats someday
