Hello peeps,
Today, we're going to be looking at one of the trending words on the search engine
Satoshi
What is a Satoshi?
A Satoshi is the smallest fraction or unit of a Bitcoin that can currently be sent (0.00000001 BTC) that is, a hundredth of a millionth BTC¹ or 100*10^-6 BTC or 100 micro BTC.
Each bitcoin is divisible to the 8th decimal place, so each BTC can be split into 100,000,000 units. Each unit of bitcoin, or 0.00000001 bitcoin, is called a satoshi².

Okay
Now that you have known what a Satoshi is let's see if we can know;
Who invented Satoshi
How much is a Satoshi
How to get a Satoshi
How to grow it

Who invented Satoshi

Bitcoin founder, Satoshi Nakamoto

How much is a Satoshi

As at now 14/08/2018, a Satoshi is currently 0.00006079 USD.
This very low price of Satoshi is due to the fall of crypto currencies.
So, keep a tab on crypto news.

How to get Satoshi

Well, there are many ways to get Satoshi.

  1. By purchase either on BTC or on Satoshis
  2. Through BTC mining. BTC mining is on Satoshis i.e they pay from the lowest digits of BTC which is in Satoshi.
  3. By getting paid online for performing one task or the other.

How to grow it

Well, I'll say that there's no other way to grow your Satoshi price apart from accumulating it until cryptos price rise.
