Translate bitcoin into satoshis using Bitcoin's fixed unit relationship.
Enter an amount to see the estimate.
No fees, spread, or slippage are included.
Enter a Bitcoin amount above. The calculator translates it through the relevant public reference and displays an indicative amount in Satoshis. You can reverse the direction without leaving the page.
One BTC always equals 100,000,000 satoshis. No market price is needed for this denomination conversion.
This conversion uses the protocol unit relationship only: one BTC equals 100,000,000 sats. No exchange, order book, fiat rate or stablecoin is needed, so the result changes only when the entered amount changes.
Bitcoin is the native unit of the Bitcoin network. One BTC can be divided into 100,000,000 satoshis, and control depends on the keys required to spend its transaction outputs.
BTC is used to measure bitcoin balances, transaction outputs, fees and market prices. The protocol's issuance schedule is separate from the exchange rate shown by a venue.
A satoshi, commonly shortened to sat, is the smallest standard Bitcoin unit. One sat equals 0.00000001 BTC and 100,000,000 sats equal one BTC.
Sats make small payments, Lightning invoices and fee amounts easier to read without writing many leading zeros.
The page answers a unit question only. It cannot decide whether either asset, venue, custody method or transaction is suitable for a reader.
BTC: BTC has no central price and can move sharply. A conversion says nothing about custody, transaction finality, taxes or whether a purchase suits a reader.
SATS: A sat is a denomination, not a different token. Anyone offering a separate 'satoshi coin' may be using confusing or misleading language.
Spread, order-book depth, slippage, funding charges, withdrawal fees and taxes remain outside the calculation.
Examples use the current public reference when it is available.

No. Bitcoin.now is informational only and does not accept orders, connect accounts or provide executable quotes.
Venues have separate order books. Spread, liquidity, fees, slippage and timing can all produce a different executable value.
This direction starts with a decimal bitcoin balance and turns it into a whole-number satoshi count. It is useful when a wallet, fee, or Lightning invoice is easier to understand in smaller units.
Bitcoin amounts can be written to eight decimal places. Extra decimals do not represent a smaller standard on-chain unit.
Move the decimal point eight places to the right. For example, 0.0025 BTC becomes 250,000 sats.
BTC and sats are names for the same asset. The denomination result stays exact even while BTC/USD changes.
