Well I do think that this is something that might happen in the future.
Just like we have a dollar and the small coins , the same way we could do something same but digitally.
But at the same time it will be useful when the price is high , right now it is indeed something that might not be that useful.
1$= 0.000092 Btc When it comes down to a high price then maybe we would need even mini satoshi's.

It is way too early to be denominating paymetns in satoshi units. Wait until bitcoin is worth $1million or so so it makes more sense. Right now the best thing to use is mBTC for the sake of simplicity.
Disagree. mBTC, bits or whatever is just asking for people to be placing the wrong decimal somewhere and ruining themselves. I still get stumped by stuff priced in mBTC
There's BTC. There's Satoshis. Anything in the middle adds confusion and will eventually be abandoned in favour of Satoshis anyway. Much better to go straight from one to the other.

I don't even have this symbol BTC on my phone yet so I think we're talking about this too early. It's a nice thing to have but we can't always have nice things. 
I think at this point it will only create confusion, newbies will be thinking that it's some new cryptocurrency, and maybe some scammers like Roger Ver and Craig Wright will see it as an opportunity to defraud more people, by making some new shitcoin with similar symbol. We are currently using identifiers like "sat", "mbtc", "μbtc" and they are pretty intuitive and easy to understand even if you see them for the first time. If we'll have a symbol for satoshis, I think it should resemble the Bitcoin logo for better recognition.
An S with two vertical lines || - a little too similar to $.
We're probably a little bit too early to be focusing on these things. Not sure if we actually need a symbol for every bitcoin denomination, but if we would, It'd probably make more sense to focus on bits and mbits first. We're probably a long way of seeing things priced in sats.

I like Jet Cash's suggestion the most. 1 satoshi may one day be a dollar, so it may be that in the future, we'll be talking about miner's fees of $1 to mean 1 satoshi, and we'll all be complaining of how expensive that fee is and that we shouldn't be paying it. Imagine 2k txs all paying $1 fees each!
P.S. $ and ¢ is 1=100 So BTC to satoshi isn't quite as easy to compute. Takes a bit of psychological readjustment.

This is interesting. Though it is only "nice to have" for now, I guess it will really be required in the future to have that symbol like cents. I will follow this thread and if I will have enough time to create the symbol then I will somehow contribute it. I have a symbol in mind but I am also interested in your ideas. I guess this is really fun at the same time a light topic to discuss.
Yes, in the future we will require a logo for Satoshi. When the time comes we as a community can choose one. At the moment what is important is to create more awareness and spread positivity about Bitcoin. Too many negative news has been circulating and is being circulated daily.
Without mass adoption, we will not have any need for a Satoshi logo. To reach that level we need a more positive attitude and progressive mindset. Which mostly can be contributed by this community

I think the reason for a Satoshis symbol gaining more adoption first is because of the amount of shitcoins that are worth just a couple Satoshis. When talking about those, it is rather annoying to type of Satoshis every time.
Do you really talk about shitcoins that much that you actually need a satoshi symbol to make it ever so slightly easier? 
Well, actually, I might be wrong since I'm sure many of the time they just say "sats". Though, it would just be neat to have I guess.
We're going to have it once we need it I guess. Currently, a sat is merely worth around $0.0001. We're far away from needing a symbol for it. We're probably a little bit too early to be focusing on these things. Not sure if we actually need a symbol for every bitcoin denomination, but if we would, It'd probably make more sense to focus on bits and mbits first.

Anyway, someone proposed a symbol for sats on Reddit a year ago:

It's about all the dollar will be worth in a few years.

Satoshis are the smallest unit of a bitcoin. 100,000,000 Satoshi is equal to 1 bitcoin, 1 Satoshi = 0.00000001 bitcoin. In the future (where bitcoin is way more valuable), it would be much easier to use Satoshis as a unit of price, but unlike the BTC logo where it is the bold B with the two slashes, there doesn't seem to be a logo like this for the Satoshis unit. Can we as a community create and settle on a logo for Satoshis and start maybe test using it? It will take a while for it to catch on but it is for the better.
TLDR : Create a logo for Satoshis, the smallest unit of bitcoin, like the BTC logo and start using it.
