102 sats \ 11 boost \ 9 replies \ @billytheked 8 Jan \ on: The SN home page is an auction meta
100% of a boost goes to the reward pool (making boosts much harder to game than zaps).

I had wrongly assumed boosts went to territories and rewards. Isn't that how it used to work?

Edit: seems i was not wrong?

Wow! Does that mean territory owners can boost their posts with a 70% discount?

This gives a lot of power and responsibility to territory owners. Maybe too much! Shouldn’t it be the other way around? Like 30% for the territory and 70% for the rewards?
