ATOM to uATOM Converter
Cosmos ATOM to uATOM converter is a tool for converting ATOM amount to uATOM units. uATOM (micro-ATOM) is the smallest base unit of the Cosmos native token ATOM.
One ATOM equals to 1,000,000 uATOM, so ATOM has six decimal places.
| Unit | uATOM Value | ATOM Value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| uATOM | 1 uATOM | 0.000001 ATOM | Smallest unit of Cosmos |
| ATOM | 1,000,000 uATOM | 1 ATOM | Main Cosmos cryptocurrency |

Frequently Asked Questions
How many uatom are in 1 ATOM?
1 ATOM = 1,000,000 uatom (micro-ATOM). The uatom is the smallest unit of the Cosmos Hub, the base denomination used on-chain.
What is uatom used for?
Cosmos SDK chains denominate balances, fees, and staking amounts in the base unit (uatom for the Cosmos Hub). Applications convert to ATOM for users.
How do I convert ATOM to uatom?
Multiply the ATOM amount by 1,000,000. For example, 3 ATOM = 3,000,000 uatom.
Why the 'u' prefix in uatom?
The 'u' stands for micro (10^-6). Cosmos uses micro-denominations as the integer base unit to avoid floating-point errors in on-chain math.
