SATS (SATS) is a BRC-20 token deployed on Bitcoin via the Ordinals protocol, named after the smallest unit of a bitcoin (a satoshi). It became one of the largest-cap tokens in the Bitcoin-native fungible ecosystem and is widely treated as a flagship for BRC-20 activity.
Why it's tracked here
Its social signal is a useful proxy for retail enthusiasm around Bitcoin-native experiments — Ordinals, BRC-20, and Runes — rather than for Bitcoin itself. Spikes in mood and volume often line up with renewed interest in on-chain Bitcoin culture.
