No need to worry — you can pay with sats, zaps, or ecash. In the end, it's (more or less) the same thing: Bitcoin on the Lightning Network. That's why it's usable in retail.
Ecash tokens, though based on Bitcoin, haven't gained widespread usage. Their use case is quite niche, and I don't see them being adopted broadly anytime soon.
Sats are just a small part of a Bitcoin, and that's why 'sats' is the right term. I don't really care what the Nostr community decides to call it — sats are used beyond Nostr, and renaming them here won’t change their real name. Sats are the standard.
