What I mean is that with the increase in Bitcoin's value, it's normal for stackers to zap less frequently. Doesn't this make it harder to improve the stackers' trust score? I don't have data on zaps, but I think it doesn't even matter because it's just an adjustment mechanism. Regarding inflation, I'm specifically referring to the prices for posting and commenting. I know Siggy lowered the price in his territories, but in others, the value is low.

Trust is a distribution, ie assigned relative to other stackers, so it isn't effected by price.

Posting costs will likely remain high until we lower territory prices which I plan to do but need to finish some other work first. Is 1 sat for commenting prohibitively expensive?

I interpreted the question as: with higher bitcoin price, is the average daily amount of zaps lower? (And is that somehow affecting the rankings, which I guess it wouldn't if it's proportional across all the stackers ' lower zapping behaviour)

Yeah, I believe the idea is that trust is based on zapping the same things as other stackers, so if zapping becomes less frequent, then trust scores will grow more slowly.

in fairness I did mean zap value but thinking about your answer, what you say makes sense.

Ok, you should have meant what I thought you meant. I recall k00b saying that zap size doesn't factor into trust scores.

I dont think it is very expensive to use 1 sat to post a reply. I think he is talking about how other people are able to do better because people with higher trust scores zap them more.

If you are lowering territory prices what will happen to those that bought territories outright? I was thinking of just buying sports outright in January but if you are lowering the price I will wait.

I'm planning to increase the once price while decreasing monthly and yearly. The once founders mostly end up squatting on their territories ... so we either increase or remove the option (if we do remove it, current once founders will be grandfathered).

For monthly and yearly, whenever I make the switch I will prorate a refund.

So I should buy in January then. Fair enough. Thanks

so it isn't effected by price.

and zap value ?

Is 1 sat for commenting prohibitively expensive?

of course not. I was thinking more about post cost in some territories and especially rent territories price.
