# Where Do I Start?

Create a Unisat wallet if you don't already have one. Transfer your BTC into it. Connect the wallet to [**Sating.io**](https://sating.io). It takes a minute or two for Sating to go through all the sats after you see the transfer confirm, so you may need to disconnect and reconnect before any special sats show up.

Once you find sats you want to keep, you can click them and choose [Transfer ](/how-to-use-sating/transferring-sats.md)to move them to a different wallet. I recommend creating a new wallet for [each type of sat](/sating.io-basics/the-main-sating-page/sating-search-types.md). For example, one for Uncommons, one for [Vintage](/sating.io-basics/the-main-sating-page/sating-search-types/vintage-sats.md) and another for [Numeric Palindromes](/sating.io-basics/the-main-sating-page/sating-search-types/digits-numeric-palindromes.md). This will make it easier to find and catalog them later. If you do this for a while your inventory will start to get out of control if you don't take steps up front to keep track of it now.

Pull your valuable sats out and then send your Bitcoin back to the exchange of your choice. I usually wait a few hours before sending it back to my Unisat wallet and looking for new valuable sats. I do this mostly because I often received the same sats I just sent back if I immediately pulled them back out, but also because I could sit here and hunt all day long 18 hours a day. It is healthy to take breaks throughout the day and accomplish some real life.

Once you send your BTC back to Unisat you hopefully will see you receive a new batch of sats you have never seen before to hunt through. Repeat this process over and over.

I will caution you about knowing the fees you are paying. It is really considerate of the Bitcoin ordinal community to give us this time with fees at historic lows because Sat Hunters pay a lot of fees. If you are using a small amount of BTC you might find you are donating a high percentage of it to nodes as fees. I would recommend using at least .5 BTC for hunting. You can use less but you won't find a lot of valuable sats and the fees will eat up your stack fast.

### Tips & Tricks

* Get familiar with <https://mempool.space>. It will tell you when your transactions occur and help you decide the fees to use for everything you do.
* [Palindromes are more rare than Bitcoin now](/sating-tips-and-tricks/great-upheaval-in-palindrome-rarity.md). Since November 2012 the number of palindromes has been 1 per 110,000,000 sats. As Bitcoin continues to halve, so do new Palindromes, so it will become harder and harder to find them. Prior to November 2012 there were 20 times more Palindromes created in every block. Are you more interested in old or harder to find Palindromes? Which will you keep? The answer is different for everyone.
* You can sometimes transfer more than one sat at a time if you have multiple UTXOs in the wallet. In other words, you don't always have to wait for each transfer to complete before sending the next transfer. Typically when you first send in your BTC you will receive a single UTXO. However, when you pull out your first sat everything before that sat will be in the same UTXO and everything after it will go into a new UTXO.

By using the search in the All Sats box you can see the UTXO a sat is in. I have pulled out a couple sats at this point so have multiple UTXOs in the wallet. Here is the next one I am keeping, so I go ahead and do the Transfer.

Notice the UTXO ends in **eaa1:2**. I have a few other sats I want to pull out. I can search each of them looking for one with a different UTXO. After searching through them I found one.

It ends in **eaa1:0**. I can move this sat without waiting for the first one to complete. &#x20;

Sometimes I have many UTXOs and can Transfer quite a few in each Bitcoin block.  If you are pulling names out you can strategically pull ones from the middle first so you can pull one before and after it in the next block.
