Howdy there, partner! Welcome on into the Stacker Saloon.

Saddle on up to a stool and spill the beans about your day, fire away with them questions, or let loose and give us the lowdown on your wild and woolly life. We're all ears, so don't hold back!

We're open round the clock, so mosey on in whenever you please!

SNs is already a quasi shitcoin social media platform.

CCs now dominate its economy.

Sure if you are a net content consumer you need to buy CCs or directly spend sats into the SNs economy but there are plenty probably most SNs participants who seldom if ever spend any sats but rely entirely on CCs and sats zapped for their content and who extract profits via the sats some still zap into the SNs economy.
Since wallet status is now concealed by default the incentive to attach LN wallets is reduced and the decline into a more and more CC/shitcoin model seems to be already determined.

SNs has never achieved sufficient content consumers paying for content and has always relied on its founders subsidies- how much longer is that viable?
SNs was a good attempt but imo it appears to have failed- failed due to too many participants seeking to extract monetary value more than contribute monetary value.
There is now too little incentive for content consumers to attach wallets and pay and too many arsemilking content providers using sybil tactic to boost their content and extract what sats do still circulate.

There are less and less sats, and more and more CC shitcoin steadily debasing the SNs economy.

CCs are worse than shitcoin- they cannot even be easily converted to sats...they are inhouse shit tokens of no value outside the platform.

Maybe SNs does need to re start on a basis where you do need to attach wallets to participate and completely remove the use of CCs?

The way things are going is not sustainable.

Something that might be kind of fun: get downzapped enough in a thread/territory and it digs you a grave, unable to contribute further, and you have to spend enough to dig yourself out.

reply

That would be one way to silence-censor viewpoints that you cannot credibly refute with reasoned dialogue.

Should keep the trolls very happy.

In terms of SNs being a serious platform for contest of ideas and free speech- well it would be another nail in the coffin - if that has not occurred already.

Let's make SNs even more of an echo chamber for arsemilking virtue signalling hypocrits- as if it's not already.

He zapped you CC tokens, not sats, because @SimpleStacker does not have attached LN wallets.
Hes too scared to use Bitcoin (real money) so uses CC tokens instead.

I would zap him a few sats if I could easily see whether he has taken the trouble to attach a LN send and receive wallet but expect he has not as there is fuck all incentive to now that you have concealed wallet status by default.

There is less and less incentive for genuine Bitcoiners to join and participate in SNs using sats...and so the SNs economy is becoming increasingly saturated with inhouse CC tokens that are even worse than shitcoin- they have zero value outside of SNs.

Without input of sats (real money) SNs cannot ever achieve economic viability will surely die.

The privacy argument against attaching and showing wallets is pure BS - I can attach LN wallets without compromising my privacy and so can anyone else.

If we’ve got more than one wallet attached, should we have horses and guns?

i'm not sure what you're asking

reply

The horse (1) and gun (1) icons show you can send/receive sats. If we got more than one wallet attached, shouldn't we have n horses and n guns? Having more than 1 horse/gun just makes us more cowboy! Hahaha

@koob has concealed LN wallet status in his support of those who chose to conceal them and not show their support for LN and sats use on SNs.

Part of SNs abandoning any serious attempt to operate a V4V P2P social media network denominated in sats.

The debasement of Stacker News economy with CC tokens is now official SNs policy.

There is now no incentive or kudos in attaching LN wallets.

When will @Darthcoin make a meme that is funny?

When will @Darthcoin who claims he is 'living on The Bitcoin Standard' even bother to attach LN wallets and use sats instead of the CCs that he admits he prefers because 'CCs always work'?!

Probably never.

His NSA handler told him he hes not allowed to use Bitcoin except for research purposes subservient to his role as a state employee infiltrating the Bitcoin community.
