Title: Visualizing Bitcoin units Post by: dree12 on November 17, 2013, 04:27:51 AM Here's a fun list I made showing off orders of magnitude and Bitcoin, from the very big to the very small. Under each heading is an item currently (November 16, 2013) worth about as much as the unit.
10000000 BTC (10 MBTC) Total number of bitcoins in existence. Snapchat. 1000000 BTC (1 MBTC) Estimated fortune of Satoshi Nakamoto. Top-10 skyscraper. 100000 BTC (100 kBTC) Satellite launch. 10000 BTC (10 kBTC) Modest apartment building. 1000 BTC (1 kBTC) Detached house. 100 BTC Upper-middle range car. 10 BTC Decent horse. 1 BTC Original Bitcoin base unit.

Grain of sand is kinda priceyGrain of sand. You're completely right: the satoshi is worth a lot more than the average grain of sand. In fact, it's worth 3 times as much as a large grain of sand. However, it's also worth only a quarter of a grain of rice, which is the next step up. Hopefully I clarified the value now, explicitly stating that it is a large grain of sand.
