Stacking sats

Accumulating bitcoin in small amounts, counted in satoshis.

Stacking sats is Bitcoin culture’s phrase for steadily accumulating small amounts — buying, earning, or getting cashback in satoshis rather than waiting to afford a whole coin. The framing matters: nobody needs a full BTC, and sats make small progress visible.

The phrase carries the sats-first worldview this site is built on: measure in the unit that never changes, and let the fiat number be the volatile one.
