But the cash you don't spend that's already on SN would have to come from another source. You have the same amount of cash either way.

Maybe some of us just want to keep our sats in the SN wallet.

The same thing happened to me with what he's describing. At first I didn't get it either, but after taking a closer look, i see.

When buying CCs, it could ask whether you want to spend the sats from your SN wallet.

Why would anyone want to convert their reward sats into CCs under any scenario?

reply

Didn't you buy CCs? Other people might want to as well.

Besides, buying CCs with your reward sats already happens automatically when you run out of CCs!

Not if I want to withdraw. I'm about to test the (only) submission for #1532486

If it doesn't meet the minimum requirements, it would be nice to be able to withdraw the reward sats I've earned since I didn't need to use for paying a future huge bounty.

Let's walkthrough this with an example and assume you had 1m sats offsite somewhere.

So before purchasing CCs this is your state:

"cash" on SN: 90k sats
"gift card" on SN: 260k CCs
"cash" off SN: 1m sats

the way it currently works purchasing 150k CCs

"cash" on SN: 0 sats
"gift card" on SN: 410k CCs
"cash" off SN: 940k sats

Total "cash": 940k sats
Total "gift card": 410k CCs

the way you want it to work purchasing 150k CCs

"cash" on SN: 90k sats
"gift card" on SN: 410k CCs
"cash" off SN: 850k sats

Total "cash": 940k sats
Total "gift card": 410k CCs


Do you see what I'm saying now? In either case, you end up with the same amount of "cash" and "gift card." BUT, with the way it currently works, you sent less "cash" around the internet.
