152 sats \ 2 replies \ @ek 2h \ on: ₿ *and* sats? Best of both worlds or not so much? bitcoin
How about writing $ but saying sats?
The dollar sign looks like a S, and if fiat is going to die anyway, maybe we should start by disgracing it in our language.
But yeah, it probably couldn’t get any more confusing than that.
Credits to @itsTomekK because I’ve heard this idea from him for the first time.
I tried out the Square terminal thing today. Bought a coffee. It displayed a price in dollars first, and then when I told them I wanted to pay in bitcoin, they pressed a button and it displayed sats (using the ₿ symbol). It would have been pretty messy if I told them bitcoin and they switched to a dramatically different number with the same symbol...
