...to enjoy more stacker news' background bolts?

Am I the only one who makes ZAP sounds every time they hit the tip button?

You'll never earn your cowboy hat with such a low base. Step it up to 10 and you will be ready for the OK Corral.

reply

I've had a cowboy hat a few times, but didn't really understand how I earned it! How many zaps do you need to give to earn one? Is it the same every day?

reply

I believe you have to tip 100 sats per day to keep the hat.

21.1

Ah, I remember when I used to have 1 sat default tip amount. Now I spam the lightning bolt with a 15 sat tip each tap. That was the day I decided I wanted to be spending more sats that I got off of this site. I'm having trouble meeting that goal by the way. Maybe I should bump it up to 25

25 sats still just half of a penny... seems cheap

reply

I had 1 for a while, recently changed to 21 now that I have a good bit of sats accumulated

reply

69 sats is my default.

reply

changed mine to 17… no reason why

reply

10 feels like an optimal amount for me.

reply

The upvotes are now using factors of ten.

1 to 9, = 1 upvotes,
10 to 99 = 2 upvotes,
100 to 999 = 3 upvotes,
1,000 to 9,999 = 4 upvotes

So tipping to effect a rise in a post's rank is (without "wasting" sats) optimally 1, 10, 100, 1,000, etc.

reply

Nope. They're not as bullish as us lol.

reply

no

10 default, then I use multiple zaps as and when.

reply

I do 5, but I do like them background bolts

reply

Your definitely not the only one, but that is pretty cheap. I'd be interested in how people think about the optimal tip amount.

reply

I have mine set to 21 but that's such a small amount of corn that I usually click more than once.

I like that even 1 sat is all it takes to prevent the majority of spam.

reply

Yes ⚡

Me too. But I usually choose the amount so that the total tipped amount is a round number.

Used default for a few weeks at the beginning, then switched to 20.

Didn't expect so many answers :D
You are right, 1 sat is very low but... I think it will take some time to detox me from background bolts addiction... ZA-ZAP... ZAP ZAP ZAP... ZAP... ZA-ZA-ZA-ZA-ZA-ZAPPP!!!

reply

Set at 1 but I tap a couple of times. Lately I would zap the difference to make the zap count rounded to the nearest 100
