There are 2,863 RBTC (0 2,863 BTC) locked in Rootstock. Do you think this is a big number for a bitcoin ecosystem? How much would it take to consider big?

What do you use Rootstock for?
reply
There are a few platforms like moneonchain, sovryn, tropykus where you can lend and borrow without KYC and being really descentralized and censorship resistant.

Is it possible to deduct the Sybil fee from our CC wallet instead of the attached one? cc/@k00b @ek
reply
28 sats \ 8 replies \ @k00b 16 Jan
It is possible, but if people value CCs less it makes zaps less sybil resistant.
reply
Increasing CCs utility would make people value CCs more, not less.
It's not like CCs would become easier to earn because you made them easier to spend.
reply
I believe this would increase user satisfaction. If it were determined that the zaps became less sybil resistant, we could always increase the Sybil fee.

I don't think the users that hate cowboy credits enough to rage quit will be satisfied by anything short of removing them entirely. I know that because every time they get or send cowboy credits, which they are SO angry about, the only alternative is receiving an error that they claim they'd be happy to see. No rational person would prefer that. They want us to do something impossible, because WE pay the cost for us trying to do something impossible. It'd turn ten unhappy stackers into all stackers being unhappy.
I'd rather spend my time serving the stackers that have some grace than placating entitled internet sociopaths. I learned a long time ago to not negotiate with product terrorists. We will make cowboy credits less common and faster to decay, but we have a lot of work to do in addition to that. The priority will never be the people raging about the existence of CCs inarticulately.

I realize you just meant it as product suggestion and to queue it, but I had a rant chambered and this seemed like a good place to discharge it. Thanks for the suggestion! I believe @_random proposed a couple days ago, after @ek originally did a few months ago.

I know it was only an idea. I edited it to indicate that I knew. Sorry for my rant.
reply
I had no idea that someone else had already brought that up! You are excused.
reply
Weird. I didnt get a note when @k00b tagged me. Maybe because it was in an edit?

En realidad en español es muy bueno. Solo que la mayoría de los stackers son de habla inglesa. Así que publicamos más e. Inglés. Pero podemos hacerlo bilingüe. Qué les parece?

Si también, buena idea!

This isn't really a problem, but does anyone know why my rewards are getting split into two transactions? They usually show up in my wallet a minute apart. Apologies if it's been mentioned somewhere else, I don't remember seeing it.

We don't know in advance how much it will cost to route, so we send amount - amount * maxfee_percent. Then with whatever is left, we do it again, and so on.
reply
Okay, thanks for the information! I wanted to make sure I didn't have settings messed up or something wrong with my wallet.
reply
I think it has to do with your fee parameters. SN should block the maximum allowable fee and then, if it's not spent in full, make other transfers. But it's better to wait for a more reliable explanation!

When you put emojis in your title, especially more than one, and even if I like the post, I assume you don't need many zaps with all that flair.
reply
Flair is fun! This site can use a bit more emoji. I often self censor my emoji use because of how bland the posts can be

Emojis feel out of place to me most of the time, especially when they’re used for attention seeking purposes. I’ll grant they can lighten a mood 🐮 though.
reply
It’s like booze you gotta find the right balance. A shot or two is okay . You go to 3 to 5 drinks now you are pushing it anything over 5 might not be in your best interest.
This is how I approach emojis 😆

2 days till our first cruise. Crunch time! Pie in the face for me at cubscouts. Glad I’m a leader lol
reply
You must be the Cubmaster! I was a Cubmaster for 8 years and had great fun, except for my first year. The whole shebang for the pack was dropped on me all at once and all the older leaders dropped out all at that time. It was glorious after we made it through that first year. I eventually became a council trainer, too. Pie in the face is just a beginning. Just don’t eat the whole pie by yourself, though.

Who keeps money in the bank? The only thing I see it being good for is to either cash checks I get for fiat or stash fiat to write more fiat checks for other people. I only hold it myself because they consider it theirs if I leave it there.

I do have a bank account, I only keep enough in it to write any checks or pay any bills I have to pay for the month. Nothing else!
