Code:
static const CAmount COIN = 100000000;
static const CAmount CENT = 1000000;

Presumably, in the source code of Litecoin Core, a "coin" is defined as one hundred million and a "cent" as one hundredth of that (i.e., one million). Integers do not have units (by default); however, laypeople often (at least, in effect) define a "satoshi" (or "litoshi", etc.) as one (so as to concatenate a unit onto these integers).

Since Satoshi Nakamoto invented bitcoin and all these clones are simply Bitcoin core modded or hacked in some cases. I call every altcoin's "cents" satoshis.


Great Empire Coin™ (GEC) is the official currency of Great Empire of Earth, is divisible into cents and mills, and has denominations of mega-, terra-, and exacoins.

You call the thousandths (and hundredths) of a cryptographic currency “satoshis” instead of “mills” (and “cents”)‽

Think of them as the equivalent of cents to the dollar. Except they have 8 decimal places in the case of Bitcoin. So one satoshi is .00000001 bitcoins.

Litosh, I don't use that term. Since Satoshi Nakamoto invented bitcoin and all these clones are simply Bitcoin core modded or hacked in some cases. I call every altcoin's "cents" satoshis.
