My idea for the Satoshi symbol
- It's a number 8 with a small part erased to represent the opposite of infinity symbol, which is "Finity" and sats are finite, ie. absolutely scarce.
- It's very similar or the same to the small delta symbol which represents the change and difference, and I think that Bitcoin and Satoshi are the embodiment of that.
- It is also similar to the small letter b in some languages and the symbolism is clear between the uppercase letter of B in bitcoin as a larger unit and the small "b" in satoshi as a smaller unit.
- I think it's really memorable and very easy to write on paper.
- The symbol also has a letter S in itself to symbolize Satoshi.
- I have checked globally accepted symbols as well as symbols of world currencies and couldn't find any similarities. I d like to be checked on this. We want something unique, aren't we? ;)
These are the connections and symbolism I could find between satoshi as a unit and this symbol I "Created". Tell me what you think. :)
Edit: I see many people see the first version as a number "8", so taking these and other considerations I came with the updated version that has a strikethrough line that almost all traditional currencies have one way or another.
Also, someone genuinely noted that bitcoin goes to 8 decimal places so there's another connection to this symbol. :)
