I'd love to be able to get paid for sats for work. The best I've done is contributing to Stacker.News back when they were still doing contributor bounties. I haven't done anything for a while, but that's more because my focus turned towards my SN research project vs. contributing code. My comparative advantage is still research work and not programming. No idea how I can get paid for sats for that.

back when they were still doing contributor bounties

Oh! I saw I got awarded some sats a few months ago but I didn't claim it. Didn't know it was gone. It was very generous imho - at least in my case.

I think that your SN research project was awesome. You're very skilled.

It's also why I didn't put too much effort in running stats on the downzaps when they started happening - I feel like an imposter. I did some things in R, like try to see if those never ending downzaps were hurting @Scoresby's engagement [1], because that was hit hardest. But I am not a statistician and I can't make soup out of this. No sers. I will stick to reporting how many blocks are signaling BIP-110 😂

My comparative advantage is still research work and not programming. No idea how I can get paid for sats for that.

In applied form, I expect this to become needed. Not when everyone is panicking or partying due to NgD/NgU respectively, but in the middle, when businesses build. Some of the Bitcoin businesses have become big enough to need someone that can make soup of things.

If you're listed in https://github.com/stackernews/stacker.news/blob/master/awards.csv and still haven't been paid, I think they'd still be willing to pay.

I think they took away contributor bounties though because too many bots were trying to claim them.

I'm the bottom entry.
