Historically, you've been one of the more active users on here. You deserve them. There's not many people who've been on here as long or has been as active.
There's lots of ways to spend them on here. You can tip your favorite posts or send invite faucet links to your favorite bitcoiners if they aren't already on here.
Yes, usually I try to keep a balance between in and out. Like Darth Vader, I want to bring balance into The Force... balance is the key.
One observation. I do not like to tip unfairly huge amount of sats. And I will explain why. I could do it, I love to tip sats. But only when is really need it. My "tipping strategy" is the following:
  • I tip 1 sat (boost), one click, if I simply agree with the post
  • I tip 10 sats if the post is interesting to read later or simply support a good idea/opinion. Also for those good jokes.
  • I tip 21 sats if the post says something good for community in general. Is a mystical number.
  • I tip 50 sats when the post is really good and I wasn't expect it. Something that help me.
  • I tip 100 sats when the post is fucking good, the OP really put effort into writing it (is not just a shared link). Content creators deserve to be rewarded. I mean those that really create, not just share.
  • When I share something and I know the creator is in SN, I put to FW all tips to the original creator of that link. If is not here, the sats I received as tips for sharing later I send them through lntxbot or LN address to real creator.
  • Occasionally I tip 210 sats for awesome content.
I think that tipping should be more careful. Sats are very scarce. When I see that one of my posts received 13 sats, for example, I know that at least 10 people appreciate that post and tip 1 sat. Is more clear than when I see 230 sats, but no replies, could be just one user tipping 230 sats but that is not so cool. More engagement = better

You probably already know this, but for posterity - when you hover over the number of sats under the post, it shows you how many people tipped. Not sure if there's a way to do that on mobile though.

fuck me! I didn't notice that! Have my sats for the tip!
reply
Never knew that either! Awesome!

It's nice to hear how you tip.
I do:
  • 10 sats for my default
  • 100 for something that was good, but didn't blow my mind
  • 1000 for something that did blow my mind
  • 5000 for something that blew my mind and required a lot of effort
  • 10-50k sats on AMAs because I really enjoy them
I mostly tip proportional to how much I want to see more of the thing that I'm tipping. I use my sats to signal for the behaviors that I like so that they continue.

It's usually bitcoin related and original content, but here's some sats anyway.

I don't know how for you all that content on BitcoinTV, exclusively about Bitcoin is boring for you... In all these 10+ years in Bitcoinlandia I never get bored about Bitcoin content, is always something new to learn. I never go to sleep until I learn something new. Ok, go back to your tiktoks...

Noooo, not the whole website, just those videos of the blockchain snake.
Which topics interest you?
reply
Oh yeah, I forgot about AMAs, yeah there I tip more, depends on the answers. And not just for the AMAer, but also to the participants. Sometimes the questions are more interesting than answers.
