That figure is the price of a mobile plan converted into Bitcoin satoshis (sats) — the smallest unit of Bitcoin, one hundred-millionth of a coin. Measuring in sats lets you compare what a mobile plan really costs anywhere in the world using a single unit, instead of juggling local currencies.
The number isn't fixed: it moves with both the local cash price of a mobile plan and the Bitcoin exchange rate. Over time, as Bitcoin appreciates, the same mobile plan tends to cost fewer sats — which is the whole point of pricing the world in sound money.
