I'm visiting SN a little more these days and to my rejoice, I see that I'm being rewarded daily a few sats. It's also increasing on a daily basis, not too sure but it seems so. Today, there are interesting numbers for me on the leader board. I'm ranked 50 and my reward Sats are 500.
I think that this is the highest I've achieved till now. I enjoy SN and try to learn a lot from you all but I don't know too much how can I upscale on the leaderboard. So, here are my two questions of 2 Sats worth -
  • How can someone climb up the leaderboard?
  • What's the highest reward that you've ever received?
Sats for all!!
I'm too busy running a business sometimes I reply and sometimes I post 10 - 15 times in one day and soon after I'm busy and I will see you lost your cowboy hat.
Also I pay 100,000 SATS for the B2B territory, This will probably not even come close to "breaking even", but in my specific case I'm looking at a long term possibility that in a few years some small and medium business owners might actually use Bitcoin as a payment method, in this way I might, repeat might reach some of those business owners which some potential business together might take place.
My participation over the last five years shows me than in fact Bitcoin will indeed be valued at at very, very high price, but whether or not it get's used for a payment method seems difficult at best, as the US and Other Government's around the World seem to want it's removal, and is scaring my customers and suppliers.
So to answer your question I do not make a lot of SATS using SN, but SN is much much, much better than Reddit.
In my opinion as a wholesale merchant selling around the World, in the short and medium term other Countries will start to use Bitcoin as a method to move and accept as a value versus they reality that fiat is doomed, but difficult to convince most people to use it.
Don't get me wrong not negative, nor complaining, just reality to make $ 5.00 a day in SATS doesn't seem realistic.

Thanks for your answer.

I've never used Reddit and nor I'm interested now.

Isn't it fiat mindset? If you get 10k Sats right now and 10 dollars, what would you chose? I would happily choose 10k sats because I know they will be worth a lot more but $10 will be worth a lot less. Also, it depends on where you lice. For me $5 is enough to provide for all essentials of two people.
I'm not getting you wrong here, just trying to clarify that situations are different from place to place, person to person.

I would choose 10 dollars because I can buy 15k sats with it

That's a very astute answer @ek! Liked it!
reply
Yes. I also liked it.

Haha! I didn't think that much while calculating...

Rewind to 2012 Coinbase gave 0.1 Bitcoin for registration: And people thought that was huge. Now it looks even more crazier.
People of future will look at your 500 sats with the same round eyes
reply
Yeah!! Read a lot about it but I wasn't in Bitcoin back then. TBH, I've a family of four people and we have a family business which is enough for all our needs. I'm currently looking for options whether I do a job or get involved in my family business or stick to SN.
I'm young and fresher. If I go for a job I won't get more than $5 a day for 8+ hours job, Which I hate doing as well.

In this case never sell your stackerNews sats. They'll change your mid-age life
reply
Thanks for the suggestion.
I don't need to as I said I don't have to. All my and my family's expenses are covered by our family business.

Next step study Bitcoin (read Bitcoin standard, Internet of money, etc) and teach Bitcoin people around you
Never forget to Do Your Own Research

Keep posting good content and engaging with the community. Zapping other people’s content plays a big role in it too.
I think 9000 is the most rewards I have gotten in a day aside from when we did the Satsraiser last year.
reply
Thanks for your answer. I'll try to follow.
Okay, so 9000 from rewards and you also earn for good content. That means the maximum a person can stack daily depends on engagement levels?
reply
I second @grayruby's advice. Thoughtful comments and zapping good content are the way up the leaderboard.
I've gotten to where I pretty regularly come in towards the top and my posts rarely have much to do with it.
reply
Your posts? They are damn good!
reply
I appreciate that, but they don't usually rank very high on the top posts rankings.
reply
Yes, I can slightly agree but your zapping ans commenting is very respected as I've seen.
For posts, you are there among top tens in top post and that post is also about zapping..
reply
Thanks!!
reply
Yes if you create a popular post you will get a lot of zaps plus rewards if it becomes one of the top posts.
reply
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll keep it in mind.
reply
I am here only for learning and enjoying. I love to read posts. So rewards doesn't matter to me. Rewards are the default here. So enjoy the journey of your life. don't be materialstick person in life
reply
I'm more like you not a frequent visitor. But I must say SN model of rewarding is the best. It inspires us to write value content here. If you can write value content. No doubt, you will see rewards growing exponentially.
reply
HURRAY!!! IM ALREADY AT THE TOP POSITION!
What's happening??
reply
The clock resets every day at 1pm in my country. If you post or comment during that time, you will be ranked at or near the top of the Leaderboard. However, you need to hold on to this position by posting and commenting fairly consistently throughout the day. Otherwise, you will lose first place.
It is also not just posting. You need to write something that garners zaps from many Stackers. So yesterday I posted twice but came in at 48th place.
On the other hand, my Travel Light was better received, so I attained 11th position & received about 4000 sats.
Hope this helps. Have fun
reply
Hhank you so much. Your 'travel light' is fun to read.
reply
I can just tell you what I do. I post, comment, zap to the top posts daily. And I always try to add value to value.
My highest on daily is around 6k or 7k... Just don't remember but I was placed 7th on the leaderboard very recently.
For others, you can see the daily leaderboard here https://stacker.news/rewards and judge about the maximum rewards for all ranks. For top Stackers, I can see around 10k sats. It all depends on the pool which is also there on the leaderboard.
reply
Thank you so much for your detailed reply. Very helpful. I want to know what the maximum ever. Is there someone like who got a 100k zap being the top stacker of the day?
reply
I joined it yesterday. And earn around 1000 total with rewards, bio and posts. I like this platform.
reply
Good for you! Keep it up.

Yes, I understand and value it so much. But what if I don't add any value to this beautiful community! I want to achieve high standards here. So just a beginning. Learning from all of you a lot.
