How many satoshis are in one Bitcoin?
One Bitcoin equals exactly 100,000,000 satoshis, because BTC is divisible to eight decimal places and a satoshi is the smallest indivisible unit (0.00000001 BTC). That fixed structure means 0.001 BTC is 100,000 sats, 0.0001 BTC is 10,000 sats, and 0.00000001 BTC is a single satoshi. The satoshi is the value you actually transact in on-chain, while wallets and exchanges usually display whole BTC, which is why a balance like "0.00042 BTC" can be confusing until you see it as 42,000 sats. This converter handles that math with arbitrary-precision integers rather than floating-point, so even converting 21,000,000 BTC down to satoshis stays exact with no rounding drift. Type any BTC amount above and it shows the satoshi total, plus mBTC, μBTC, and bits, instantly.
What is the difference between a bit and a microbitcoin (μBTC)?
There is no difference in value — a bit and a microbitcoin (μBTC) are two names for the exact same amount: 0.000001 BTC, which is 100 satoshis. "Microbitcoin" is the formal metric-style name following the same pattern as millibitcoin (mBTC), while "bit" was promoted as a friendlier, everyday label that's easier to say and read in small amounts, such as quoting a price as "500 bits" instead of "500 μBTC." Both sit between the satoshi and the millibitcoin on the denomination scale. Because they're identical, you can use whichever term your wallet, exchange, or community prefers without changing the underlying figure. This converter lists Bit and Microbitcoin as separate rows so you can copy the value under either label, but you'll notice they always show the same number. Enter an amount above to see both alongside BTC and satoshis.
How are Bitcoin transaction fees calculated in sat/vByte?
Bitcoin fees are charged per virtual byte (vByte) of a transaction's size, not as a percentage of the amount sent, so the fee equals your chosen rate in sat/vByte multiplied by the transaction's vByte count. A 141 vByte transaction at 10 sat/vByte costs about 1,410 satoshis regardless of whether you're moving $5 or $5,000. Higher sat/vByte rates make your transaction more attractive to miners and confirm faster when the mempool is busy, while lower rates save money but may wait longer. Transaction size depends on address type: a native SegWit (P2WPKH) spend is roughly 141 vBytes, a Taproot (P2TR) spend about 111 vBytes, and an older legacy (P2PKH) spend near 226 vBytes. The built-in fee calculator shows the cost in satoshis, BTC, and USD across six rates (1 to 100 sat/vByte). Enter your transaction size in vBytes above to compare them.
How accurate is the USD value shown for Bitcoin amounts?
The USD figure is as accurate as the latest spot price pulled from the free CoinGecko API, which reflects an aggregated market rate at the moment the tool loaded or when you last refreshed it. Because Bitcoin's price moves continuously, the dollar value is a near-real-time snapshot rather than a locked quote, so press the refresh button before relying on it for anything time-sensitive. The unit math itself — BTC, mBTC, μBTC, bits, and satoshis — is exact and never depends on the price feed, so if CoinGecko is briefly unavailable the denomination conversions still work; you simply won't see the USD column until the price loads again. Note the displayed rate is a general market price, not the exact bid or ask you'd get on any specific exchange after spreads and fees. Enter an amount and hit refresh to read its current dollar value.
Why does my wallet show such a tiny BTC balance with so many zeros?
Most wallets and exchanges denominate balances in whole Bitcoin, and since one BTC is worth a large amount, everyday holdings end up as small fractions with many leading zeros, like 0.00042 BTC. That same balance is far easier to read as 42,000 satoshis, or 0.42 mBTC, because those denominations scale the number into a friendlier range. Lightning invoices and microtransactions are usually quoted in sats or bits for exactly this reason, while blockchain explorers and developer tools often report raw satoshi integers. Converting between units removes the ambiguity that causes people to misread a balance or a fee by a factor of ten. Paste your BTC balance above and the tool instantly shows it in satoshis, bits, μBTC, and mBTC at once, plus the live USD value, so you can see the same amount in whichever unit makes the most sense to you.

About the Bitcoin Units Converter
The Bitcoin Units Converter turns any amount of Bitcoin into every common denomination at once — Bitcoin (BTC), millibitcoin (mBTC), microbitcoin (μBTC), bits, and satoshis — and shows the live US dollar value alongside them. Type a number, pick a starting unit, and the tool fills in all five denominations instantly, with a one-click copy button next to each result. It's built for anyone who works with on-chain amounts: traders sizing an order, developers handling satoshi values in code, Lightning users dealing in tiny sums, and newcomers trying to make sense of a wallet balance that reads "0.00042 BTC".
How Bitcoin denominations relate to each other
Bitcoin is divisible to eight decimal places, and the converter is built around that fixed structure rather than guesswork. The reference values it uses are exact:
- 1 BTC = 100,000,000 satoshis (the base unit you actually transact in on-chain)
- 1 mBTC (millibitcoin) = 0.001 BTC = 100,000 satoshis
- 1 μBTC (microbitcoin) = 0.000001 BTC = 100 satoshis
- 1 bit = 1 μBTC = 0.000001 BTC = 100 satoshis (a friendlier name for the same amount)
- 1 satoshi = 0.00000001 BTC, the smallest indivisible unit, named after Bitcoin's pseudonymous creator
Because conversions are done with arbitrary-precision integer math on the satoshi value, the results stay exact even for very large or very small amounts — there's no floating-point rounding error creeping in when you convert, say, 21,000,000 BTC down to satoshis.
Live USD value and the fee calculator
A live BTC-to-USD price is fetched from the free CoinGecko API and applied to whatever amount you enter, so you can read any denomination as a dollar figure. A refresh button re-pulls the current price on demand. The price lookup is the only part of the tool that touches an external service; if it's unavailable, the unit conversions still work, you just won't see a USD column.
The built-in transaction fee calculator estimates what a Bitcoin transaction costs at six fee rates — 1, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 sat/vByte — labelled from Minimum up to Priority. Enter your transaction's size in virtual bytes (vBytes) and it shows the fee in satoshis, BTC, and USD for each rate. Fees on Bitcoin are charged per vByte of transaction weight, not as a percentage of the amount sent, so a $5 transfer and a $5,000 transfer of the same byte size cost the same. Typical sizes to plug in: a legacy P2PKH input-output is roughly 226 vBytes, a native SegWit P2WPKH around 141 vBytes, and a Taproot P2TR spend about 111 vBytes — newer address types are smaller and therefore cheaper to spend.
Why convert between units at all
Different parts of the Bitcoin ecosystem speak in different units, and mixing them up is an easy way to misread a balance or a fee. Wallets and exchanges usually display whole BTC; blockchain explorers and developer tools report raw satoshi integers; Lightning invoices and microtransactions are often quoted in sats or bits. Converting a quoted fee of "20 sat/vByte" into a dollar cost, or checking that "100,000 sats" really means 0.001 BTC, removes the ambiguity before you sign anything.
Everything except the price lookup runs entirely in your browser. There's no sign-up, no account, and no amount you enter is uploaded or stored — the figures you're checking stay on your device. It's free, works on mobile and desktop in any modern browser, and there's nothing to install. Enter an amount above to see every denomination and its dollar value update at once.
