We could have countless games and ways to reward stackers on SN... I even proposed a Quiz post option, where participants could earn sats for finishing the quiz. Also I proposed the Badges system, that could start as incentive and later in trading badges...
The options are many, but the leader board is only confusing and create useless friction and false hope for earning sats.
Making the game harder will make people to appreciate more each fucking sat they get. Now is too simple to earn sats on SN, and is wrong.
