 Don’t be intimidated by the price of 1 #Bitcoin. ($61,892)

I know I’m mainly preaching to the choir on #nostr but it’s crucial for those who are beginning the journey.

You don’t need to buy a “full” bitcoin to participate.

Satoshis are the smallest unit of bitcoin and there are 100,000,000 satoshis or “sats” in 1 Bitcoin.

$1 = 1612 sats

Start stacking those sats today! 
 What is the benefit of SATs over btc ? Its just a smaller amount  
 Essentially yes.

From my dollar example:
$1 = 1612 sats = 0.00001612 BTC 
 So how is your example going to be compelling for a new user ? 

 
 People see the big dollar value of $61,892 and think they can’t afford to buy bitcoin.

In reality, you can buy bitcoin without spending thousands of dollars.
