Can someone explain how many satoshis in a bitcoin?
Why does Bitcoin use satoshis instead of decimals?
Is it common to transact in satoshis?
 
One Bitcoin has 100, 000,000 satoshis. Bitcoins have the smallest unit called a satoshi, which was given the name of the creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. This enables the splitting of Bitcoin into a very small quantity, microtransactions and accurate pricing can be made.
