Nakamoto sounds decent because we have Satoshis, but the shortcut "naks" sounds awful. But I don't like "bits" either as "bits" is already a common word that could mean either something like "smaller bits" or  "bits" as in with relation to memory.

you're right, the word bit is already used in electronics or for memory.

I'd just like to make one important point. In French, bit means cock. Which means that the French-speaking world will never be able to use this word to talk about a currency.

With the development of Africa, some studies show that by 2050, French will be more widely spoken than English in the world.

Bitcoin is a universal system, we need to find another word for 100 sat  Smiley
