709 sats \ 27 replies \ @ek 28 Dec 2023 \ on: Stacker Saloon
Day 1 of zapping content I deem worthy until my wallet is empty and seeing how much sats I get back.
Sats to spend today: 6949
Click here for more information.
(is there a more catchy way to phrase this?)
Do you plan to update periodically to show how it's going, as per @pillar and Operation Saylor? That would be badass.
In service of this idea, here's a renewed call to have SN report the amount of sats zapped each day, in the same notification that tells you how many sats you've earned. Would help with this accounting.

We do need to do that, but in the meantime if you can find yourself in top stackers, it should give you an idea of what's up.

Alright, 3rd highest spender. Suck it @siggy47!

I've lost my focus during the holidays.

It's always something, isn't it?

AND I have to save my sats for all those territories I splurged on.

3rd highest spender [of the day]
so far

I will always have been the 3rd highest zapper for that 24 hour period. There's nothing you can do about it.
Also, I think I have a bigger lead on you than what you've reported being in your wallet.

Mhh, I see. But do you know how many sats I received since I reported this? If you continue to zap me, there are more sats that I can spend to overtake you!
edit: Oh wait. These sats also count towards your spending score, lol. And I only receive 90% of these sats. Mhh.
edit: And I already need to be more cautious with how I zap since I already zapped like 50% of my wallet in the past few minutes. Need to zap content that will give me more likely sats back.

Have you considered an exponential decay schedule for your zaps? You'll never run out that way, but it'll get you very close to spending down your entire wallet everyday.
reply
I think that's what already is happening naturally. The closer I get to 0, the more I make sure that I only zap very good content. And only exactly how much I think it's really worth it.
I already did this yesterday but I didn't make it official with an announcement.
You've done pretty well in you shortish stint looking at forever:
1.1m stacked \ 680k spent \ 61 posts \ 1344 comments \ 0 referralsreply
Not gonna lie, I look at the numbers sometimes and feel a glow of accomplishment, esp at the stacked / spent ratio :)

How exactly do you mean? For now, I thought I would just post a comment like today which mentions how many sats I have to spend today. I could add a link to the comment of the previous day like @WeAreAllSatoshi does with his mining posts.
But I realized, I also get zapped during the day and I also need to spend these sats. So these wouldn't be included.
Maybe it makes more sense to just show how many sats I spent yesterday. I could also do a running total as mentioned by @orthwyrm here:
hmm, what about...Day N of zapping every day, til my wallet drains away. Total zapped thus far: X sats
reply
Yup, that's the kind of thing that I meant. Updates on how it's evolving. For a bonus, not just the raw numbers, but what you're noticing about the effects it has on you, others, SN at larger, etc.
reply
I see. Like a journal. I think the first effect will be that I will look how much work this would be tomorrow:

zap to zero

been trying to zap generously yet haven't had to refill my wallet in a couple of months or so...
reply
During my (especially) toxic phase a few weeks ago, I even zapped people aggressively.
reply
I like this. "Zappin' to zero"

we might have a winner here

Ah my mistake, should be "Sats to spend today", I misinterpretted the goal of your experiment.
Would be cool if you could automate by adding a graph that plots zapped vs. time, maybe there's some oscillating pattern that would emerge if charted.

You did but I think this running total is nevertheless a great idea! That would also make more sense since I can't tell in advance how many sats I will spend during a day.

Mhh, I think I'll be able to do this in retrospective, too.
Don't want to overthink this just yet. I just want to show up for now :)

Is it satanthropy? BTCevolence?
Its a form of Brewsters Millions… give it all away to get it back…

(Must not zap this lol…. Fail)
