1000SATS is a BRC-20 token on the Bitcoin blockchain. To receive it directly to a self-custodied wallet, you need a wallet that supports BRC-20 and Ordinals — such as Unisat Wallet or Xverse. A standard Bitcoin address or MetaMask cannot receive BRC-20 tokens correctly.

What is 1000SATS?
1000SATS is a BRC-20 token deployed on the Bitcoin blockchain that represents a unit of account tied to 1,000 satoshis — Bitcoin's smallest denomination. One satoshi equals 0.00000001 BTC; 1,000 satoshis equal 0.00001 BTC. The token carries the cultural weight of Bitcoin's base unit but does not entitle holders to any specific amount of BTC; it is an independently tradeable token whose price is set by market demand.
BRC-20 is a token standard that uses the Ordinals protocol to inscribe token data directly on the Bitcoin base layer. Unlike ERC-20 tokens on Ethereum, BRC-20 tokens have no smart contract execution layer — all transfer logic is tracked off-chain by indexers reading Bitcoin inscriptions, and settlement happens on Bitcoin mainnet. 1000SATS was one of the earliest BRC-20 tokens to reach significant trading volume, listed on Binance and OKX in late 2023 during the BRC-20 market cycle.
To receive 1000SATS directly in a self-custodied wallet, you need a Bitcoin wallet that specifically supports BRC-20 and Ordinals, such as Unisat Wallet or Xverse. Sending 1000SATS to a standard Bitcoin address does not destroy the underlying BTC, but the BRC-20 inscription will not be recognised by wallets that do not index BRC-20 state. Swapzone compares live rates from available exchange partners and routes your swap to the partner you select.
1000SATS Tokenomics
1000SATS uses the BRC-20 token standard with a fixed supply set at deployment. No additional minting is possible once the mint phase closed.
Total supply — 2,100,000,000,000 (2.1 trillion) 1000SATS tokens. The 2.1 trillion figure mirrors the 21 million BTC maximum supply scaled by 100,000 — a design choice that ties the token's denominator to Bitcoin's own supply structure.
Standard — BRC-20 on Bitcoin mainnet; token state is tracked through Ordinals inscriptions and maintained by off-chain indexers reading the Bitcoin blockchain.
Settlement — all 1000SATS transfers settle on Bitcoin mainnet as standard Bitcoin transactions; each transfer requires a Bitcoin network fee (denominated in sats per virtual byte) paid to miners.
Block time — 1000SATS confirms at Bitcoin's approximately 10-minute average block time; there is no separate chain or sidechain.
Custody — Unisat Wallet, Xverse, and other Ordinals-supporting wallets; NOT compatible with standard Bitcoin wallets (Electrum, Ledger in Bitcoin-only mode without Ordinals support) or Ethereum wallets (MetaMask).
Fees — paid in BTC (satoshis), not in 1000SATS; the cost to transfer 1000SATS rises during periods of Bitcoin network congestion.
What Determines 1000SATS's Value
1000SATS demand is driven primarily by activity within the BRC-20 token market on Bitcoin. It gained significant traction in late 2023 as one of the first BRC-20 tokens to reach meaningful on-chain volume, with daily transaction volume exceeding $21 million on-chain at its peak in December 2023, and was listed on Binance and OKX during the BRC-20 speculation cycle. Binance remains an active trading venue for 1000SATS.
Two factors affect usability directly. The first is Bitcoin network congestion: because every 1000SATS transfer is a Bitcoin transaction, spikes in Bitcoin fees during Ordinals activity periods can make small 1000SATS transfers uneconomical. The second is BRC-20 indexer health: 1000SATS balances are tracked by off-chain indexers; if an indexer lags or disagrees on state, balance displays may temporarily be inaccurate until re-indexing completes.
The token's cultural resonance with Bitcoin's satoshi unit adds a secondary demand layer from holders who see it as a Bitcoin-native cultural asset. With a fixed supply of 2.1 trillion tokens and no minting mechanism, any sustained demand increase cannot be met with new supply.

1000SATS Price Prediction
1000SATS's ATH of $0.0009278 was reached on 26 December 2023, at the peak of the BRC-20 speculation cycle that followed the initial wave of Ordinals adoption. Since then the token has traded at a significant discount to that level, as the BRC-20 market moved from discovery to consolidation. The Binance listing remains active, which provides liquidity continuity beyond the on-chain BRC-20 marketplace.
With a fixed supply of 2.1 trillion tokens and no minting mechanism, 1000SATS supply cannot increase. Any revival of BRC-20 sector interest or Bitcoin Ordinals activity would need to absorb supply from existing holders, giving the token leverage to bullish BRC-20 sentiment cycles.No 1000SATS price prediction is guaranteed. The BRC-20 token sector is speculative and has experienced severe drawdowns from peak. Past listing events and price cycles are not predictors of future performance.

Frequently Asked Questions About 1000SATS Exchange
On Swapzone: select 1000SATS as the send or receive currency, enter the amount, compare available offers, choose one, enter your wallet address, and send funds. No Swapzone account is required. If receiving 1000SATS to a self-custodied wallet, use a BRC-20-compatible wallet such as Unisat Wallet or Xverse — not a standard Bitcoin wallet or MetaMask.
Select 1000SATS in the send field and choose the target coin in the receive field. Input the amount, compare offers, and choose based on output, partner rating, and KYC label. Enter the destination address for the target coin and send 1000SATS from your BRC-20-compatible wallet to the partner's deposit address. Ensure you have BTC available in the same wallet to pay the Bitcoin network fee for the outgoing transaction.
Not directly on Swapzone — Swapzone is a crypto-to-crypto aggregator. The practical route is to swap 1000SATS to BTC or USDT on Swapzone, then use a centralised exchange or off-ramp provider to convert to fiat. 1000SATS is listed on Binance with fiat withdrawal options available there.
Non-custodial routing: the partner delivers 1000SATS directly to your address. Partner pre-screening: Swapzone checks all listed partners for fund-freezing risk. KYC label: check Rare / Often / Never before selecting. Wallet compatibility: confirm your receiving wallet supports BRC-20. If the partner delivers 1000SATS on-chain, sending to a wallet that cannot index BRC-20 state means the token balance will not display — not necessarily lost, but inaccessible without the right wallet.
A centralised exchange (Binance, OKX) holds 1000SATS in a custodial account under your profile — the exchange manages BRC-20 mechanics on your behalf, so you interact with a balance rather than an inscription. A BRC-20 marketplace (Unisat Marketplace, Magic Eden) conducts peer-to-peer trades directly on Bitcoin, requiring a BRC-20 wallet and BTC for gas. Swapzone routes through instant-exchange partners and delivers 1000SATS to your specified address; the partner handles on-chain mechanics.
Swapzone charges 0% platform fee. The only costs are the partner's rate spread (visible in the output amount) and the Bitcoin network fee for any on-chain 1000SATS transfer. Bitcoin network fees are denominated in sats/vbyte and fluctuate with network demand — they are paid in BTC, not in 1000SATS. During quiet periods the fee can be low; during Ordinals or BRC-20 activity spikes it can rise significantly.
Minimums are set by each partner and vary by pair. They appear on each offer in the comparison view. Given 1000SATS's high total supply of 2.1 trillion and its fractional cent price per token, minimums may be expressed in large token quantities. Check the minimum on each offer before initiating.
1000SATS (ticker: SATS) is a BRC-20 token on Bitcoin — an independently tradeable asset whose value is set by market demand. It is NOT actual Bitcoin satoshis and holding 1000SATS does not entitle you to any specific amount of BTC. A satoshi is Bitcoin's smallest accounting unit (0.00000001 BTC); 1000SATS takes its name from the concept of 1,000 satoshis as a cultural reference but the two are entirely separate assets. You cannot redeem 1000SATS tokens for Bitcoin at a fixed rate.
1000SATS is a BRC-20 token on the Bitcoin blockchain with no protocol-level geographic restrictions. Exchange availability depends on individual partner terms, which may vary by jurisdiction. Swapzone applies its own terms of service. As of late 2023, 1000SATS was listed on Binance and OKX, both of which have jurisdiction-based trading restrictions for certain users.
Select the coin you want to spend in the top field and 1000SATS in the receive field. Enter the amount, compare offers by output, partner rating, and KYC label. Before confirming, ensure your destination wallet supports BRC-20 — Unisat Wallet or Xverse are the standard choices for self-custody. Paste your BRC-20-compatible Bitcoin address, complete the send, and monitor the order on Swapzone.
Swapzone requires no registration or identity verification. Individual partners may request KYC depending on their policies, shown as Rare / Often / Never on each offer. 1000SATS does not carry the regulatory sensitivity of privacy coins, so most standard-amount swaps are processed without verification.
