Title: Smaller unit of ETH, similar to bits? Post by: absolutely-positioned on October 26, 2019, 03:07:09 PM I know in BTC you have Bitcoin and bits, with a 1million to 1 ratio. What's the equivalent of that for ETH? There seems to be different names for everything being passed around.

Most popular are bitcoin, bits, satoshi, milli and micro bitcoin. Ethereum has lots more as 1 ETH has 18 decimal places (10-18) and the smallest unit is called Wei! https://github.com/ethereum/web3.js/blob/798e8b97dc38e58cce4cdd92957dc756dabac9d8/lib/utils/utils.js#L41-L69 However, most of these are unpopular and unused.

Smallest one is wei, as coding enthusiast mentioned
