We know that Satoshi Nakamoto coined the termed "Bitcoin", but who coined the term "Satoshi" for the one hundred millionth part of a bitcoin.
I had read somewhere that it was in honor of bitcoin's creator in 2010, but who first started using the word ?
Just asking out of curiosity Wink

Satoshi Nakamoto did not himself coin the lowest fraction of a bitcoin. I guess from this is where the term came into existence, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3574

Bitcent, microbitcent, millicent, satoshi

Before this thread you can't find Satoshi being used to refer the lowest fraction of bitcoin on this forum.
