Bitcoin micropayments

A micropayment is a small bitcoin amount that still settles. Lightning makes 1,000 sats a payment, not a joke. That's the Outsat floor.

A bitcoin micropayment is a small amount of bitcoin that actually lands — not a promise, not a points balance. Think hundreds or thousands of sats, not a whole coin.

On-chain, that size is clumsy. The fee can dwarf the send. The block takes minutes. Lightning vs on-chain.

Lightning is how micropayments stay bitcoin. An invoice, seconds, a fee that is usually a fraction of a sat. Builders have been shipping that rail for years.

Why Outsat's floor is 1,000 sats

Pay to rank needs a step that is real money and still cheap enough to repeat. 1,000 sats is that step. Same again to stack. 1,000 more than the lead takes #1.

That is a micropayment used as a score, not a tip jar with a leaderboard sticker.

What it is not

• Not a sat "in-app currency." The invoice settles bitcoin.
• Not a dollar checkout rounded down. Dollars are a label. Sats to USD.
• Not an ad click you bought in bulk. Outsat vs ads.
