• The article proposes a new symbol for Sats, the smallest unit of Bitcoin, which is a reverse “S” with a vertical line through it.
• This symbol is meant to represent the 21 million hard supply cap of Bitcoin, as well as the dollar-killer that Bitcoin is meant to be.
• The symbol has already been met with a positive response on Twitter, with people noting that it also represents the first and last letters of the name Satoshi.
Bitcoiners have been searching for a symbol to represent the smallest unit of Bitcoin, the satoshi. After much debate, Arman The Parman, a Bitcoin educator passionate about privacy, has put forward a suggestion that has been met with a positive response.
The symbol he has proposed is a reverse “S” with a vertical line through it. He believes that this symbol is the perfect representation of Bitcoin, as it references the 21 million hard supply cap of Bitcoin and the idea of the dollar-killer that Bitcoin is meant to be. The reverse “S” also looks similar to a “2”, which further reinforces the 21 million hard supply cap.
Additionally, people have noted on Twitter that the symbol also represents the first and last letters of the name Satoshi. It is also reminiscent of Knut Svanholm’s “infinity” divided by 21 million meme.
The symbol has been met with an overwhelmingly positive response on Twitter, with people commenting on its poetically beautiful nature and clever design. There have been other suggestions, such as the actual “2”, but the reverse “S” has been the most widely accepted and is likely to become the official symbol for Sats.
Arman The Parman is confident that the symbol he has proposed is the unanimous choice for the sats symbol, and he hopes that it will be embraced by the Bitcoin community.
