sometimes, I noticed that If I made a new interesting post, some stackers might go back to check my old ones.

That's exactly what I do, especially if I don't know the nym.
Like getting to know them and rewarding them not only for current behavior, but also for past behavior.
I think getting a zap for the past is even more exciting since you know that someone took the time to read your old stuff and liked it so much they zapped. For some reason, I believe the "zap sense" is less active for past posts.
But my theory is with more users + better features regarding this, more old content will be rediscovered by more people with stronger "zap sense"
Thus, infinite zaps. lol
I just hope that I am not the only one doing this, haha
@nemo had a good point when I mentioned this: maybe I am projecting too much, haha

@k00b could look up the recent zaps in the database and see which were for old items. Or send me a up-to-date database dump and I can do it myself.
No need for subjective measurements. We have the raw data available :)

because I'm deleting all my shit so I will never get the potential massive gainz from old posts, lol :)
I hope you know it was just a joke about you missing out because you delete all your stuff haha
And I wouldn't die on this hill of a theory I created, haha

I even wrote down my SN lightning address on a tree (far from where I live) with "send nudes zaps" below, in the hope some random person will zap me in the future, lol
They could even attach a message now :)
@shurikencutter can confirm

Every so often someone will zap a post of mine from a few weeks back. I have no idea why or how they even stumble across them.

Sometimes yes, but not the first ones. I think stackers and especially the new ones are focused only on a short time period of posts, only the last 2 days or so.
If I am not online for few days, I usually select the "top" all and read the posts, so I will not miss something important, until I will reach the last day I was online and read SN. I also zap frequently, just as "seen" mechanism, so I would know that I already pass through that post.
But enough with revealing my SN strategy ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

nah, is not like passive income. Is more like people finding those old posts and they just zap them because they agree or like the content. Is like saying "ok, I see your point and I like it".

but how much and how frequently is the question
Yep, there is also currently no incentive for doing that
