100 sats \ 4 replies \ @Undisciplined 6 Feb \ parent \ on: How Pinned Posts Can Earn Sats For Territories meta
I'm curious what you expect the main difference to be if SN users 10x.
I doubt if posts will increase proportionally and that's most directly relevant for territory owners. If post zapping increased 10x, obviously posting fees could be increased dramatically and that would be great.
What if most of the new users are mostly just engaging in the comments? That's great for the UX, but probably the worst case scenario for monetization.
Even if new users only engaged in the comments it could lead to more willingness for people to invest in promoting posts, sponsoring a territory if we go that route. If you have a sports podcast for instance and I tell you it's 25,000 sats for you to a post about your podcast with a link to the pod at the top of the territory for a week, it's a much easier sell if I can say the avg posts gets 100 users engaging with it instead of 10.

I haven't gotten into the mental habit of thinking about advertising on SN yet.

Promoted or boosted posts, or paid pinned posts are like pseudo advertising. I am not sure I even like the idea of sponsored territories despite the fact it was my idea.
Should k00b be paying me a licensing fee for putting Stacker on the name of my arena or should I be paying him a licensing fee for using his brand?

My feeling is that he opened this can of worms when he sold the territories. It's not on you to figure out if he missed an entrepreneurial opportunity.
