Could you elaborate on the concept of a "sat" in the context of Bitcoin? As a cryptocurrency enthusiast, I've often heard the term mentioned but am still unclear about its precise definition and role within the Bitcoin ecosystem. I understand that it's a unit of measurement, but I'm curious to know how it relates to the overall Bitcoin value and transactions. Clarifying this would greatly enhance my comprehension of Bitcoin's underlying mechanics and help me in my financial decision-making process.
