Calling all stackers!
Leave a comment below to let the SN community know what you're working on this week. It doesn't matter how big or small your project is, or how much progress you've made.
Just share what you're up to, and let the community know if you want any feedback or help.
I need to work harder on new memes. I want to post them on SN Meme Monday contest, not because I would want the prize, but because I don't want the shitcoiners (copying memes) to earn the prize.
Only genuine and spontaneous memes with PoW should win. I've seen SN accounts used only for that meme contest, they never post anything useful on SN...
Shitcoiners MUST PAY.

Stacker News: The First Meme War
reply
How can we drive a massive wave of new bitcoiners onto stacker news?
reply
I'd be interested in this as well. :)
reply
Obviously a massive price pump would be best but I think a good start could be a media kit.
Satoshi.Money has a good basic kit for colors and logos but some images would be better. It's good to know what the specific colors and logos that we should be using to make any media assets https://docs.satoshi.money/satoshi-knowledge-base/brand/brand-assets
I just found some packages on Fiver starting at like $20 for 5 banner sizes. We could maybe get some of those made up to contact bitcoin publications asking for inboud links via their ref links.
As soon as we have some good banners, I can def add one to my site (https://WhatIsBitcoin.com)
This is what I am thinking of for stills but maybe some gif banners would also be good.
Can we get @LoveIsBitcoin to use that new ref system to grow their lifetime referrals? Stacking bitties seems like exactly the sort of thing Libby would want to share. SN is not on her "Earn Sats" coupons page either: https://coupons.loveisbitcoin.com/product-category/earn-sats/
I think if we can come up with some tasteful banners, we could contact a lot of the smaller publications and ask if they're interested in placing a banner somewhere on their site with their ref link to SN.
I think a nice tasteful gif banner with text that says "Stack sats for discussing (bitcoin, music, art, movies, memes, podcasts, photography, science, health) with each of these words on a looping carousel.
Does that sound like something you'd be interested in experimenting with?
reply
What size banners do you think would be best, @k00b?
This guy will do 6 sizes for $20.
I need a 728x90 and a 300x250 for my own site but what sizes do you think are best or most useful?

I would guess the square and the mobile-sized rectangle would do best.
reply
How do you feel about the way these look, @k00b?
Should we change the verbiage to "Stack sats for discussing bitcoin?" or something similar?
reply
You better prepare another banner with "Pay to Say" something on SN, because that will happen after Nov 5th.
reply
What do you mean? How is Nov 5th going to change how people post and comment on here? Can't cowboy credits be used for anything and everything here on SN?
It's my understanding that cowboy credits are just a derivative of bitcoin like arcade tokens are a derivative of fiat money; worthless outside of the arcade they're meant to be used in.

Earn is shorter so it's better. It's also less like an airdrop and more like proof of work.
They look great!
reply
🔥
Yeah, I agree. I wanted the focus to be on earning sats cause you're not buying them or getting them for doing nothing.
I will get these completed.
They're done and delivered.

Glad to hear that.
You can find the media kit v 0.1 here: #739953
I am still working on v 1.0 but this is what I have published so far. What sort of banners do you think would be useful?

Trying to organize ideas to start a personal project, which I will try to promote and find help in both SN and Geyser. Taking advantage of the great opportunities that Bitcoin offers us 🙏🤠

I found and abandoned well in the desert. I am working on figuring out how to get some water from it. The pump that is down in the bottom seems to be non-functional. So I am trying different things to pull water up. I don't know much about wells or how they work. But I am pretty sure there is water down there. This will be a game changer. Exciting stuff.

I'll be attempting at "Atlas Shrugged" for the first time. Someone very close to me suggested to read it.
