I know you didn’t come up with that screenshot, but I feel the need to mention that using the Bitcoin symbol for sats is a bad idea. 😅 That’s only going to cause confusion.
Aside from that, I agree 😁
Discussion
Let's say the POS system requires a symbol. I dunno if it does, but let's just say it does. There is no agreed-upon symbol for Sats. Any one of the current candidates, take your pick—a LOT of people hate it. So what do you do?
That’s a fair point.
I don’t know what the right symbol would be. But I know it’s not the Bitcoin symbol 🤷♂️
Maybe just “S”?
Sounds like we need some community effort on designing a good Sats symbol!
It's a tricky one. There have been community efforts to design a Sats symbol for 10 years, and we’re no closer today. Sometimes communities just can’t agree. Not only that but even if one option emerged as the clear leader in the next 5 years it might still take another 5 years after that to get it into Unicode.
Problem is what happens when the POS systems need a symbol now, can't wait?
You only spoke the truth. Though it’s still confusing for ppl using the btc symbol incorrectly. At this point they should have used the real btc denomination (0,00’009’876). I personally like to see the whole 8 digits
Yeah, I don’t have a good answer aside from the Bitcoin symbol isn’t it.
We definitely need something for sats. That, or just use the accurate amount of bitcoin, I guess (0.00009876 or whatever).
SAT/sat/S/s – any of them is better than suggesting it's 9 thousand bitcoin.
https://satsymbol.com/ really not sure who doesn't like this or why.
Oooh nice! That should be added to Unicode.
Best one so far.
