better ask for a lnaddress and send them p2p

But I want to get credit for awarding the bounty on SN. Can't have anyone thinking that I don't pay my debts.

Ok if that's the case @clenchwallet will need to attach a wallet, there's no other way around it. Also always double-check the @nym because we had a few impersonators coming up and a bounty like this could definitely attract @cIenchwallet (with a i instead of a L) and other similar nyms... so verify you are sending to the right user, because as you know, theres no refunds policy with bitcoin.

There is another way around it: Accept Cowboy Credits for bounties.

that's another option the user needs to set up too. If not set you'll continue getting that error.

Why should my record as a bounty issuer get discredited depending on whether or not the bounty receiver takes a specific action? This is a terrible counterincentive that delegitimizes the bounty feature.

why? bounties award the full amount in sats. routing fees come out of the sender's end.

Why not? I explained here: #1548027

I could simply dump a 500k CC zap on clenchwallet right now and circumvent this artificial restriction. But I want this bounty to show as "Claimed", so I would rather make use of the feature's intended functionality. It shouldn't be this much of a hassle to give away money.

I was asking supratic.

If we let you give CCs, this would be a lie. It's not theoretical. I've been dealing with people pissed off about receiving CCs for years.

reply

but again, to receive sats, one must have a receive wallet attached to it, correct? or would the sats sit on their sats wallet balance until they attach a wallet?

they need a receive wallet attached

yes

now I get why Kruw is frustrated

I think you can. Do you see the pay bounty button near reply in every comment?

And as I mentioned here, triple-check the user nym before clicking the button, or ensure you allocate the bounty to the right comment.

reply

True, I forgot about the bounty behavior having changed since the last time I used it.
