9 sats \ 2 replies \ @Kenobi 14 Feb \ parent \ on: Stacker Saloon
Yeah, I did read those, then I looked into the guides, and then I tried to search using the search bar, but didn't find a satisfactory answer.
But your edit just provided almost all of the info I was looking for:
This is a good starting point, but my desire for knowledge is unquenchable.
I guess the ideal would be some sort of detailed explanation and economic analysis of how this dual-coin economy works exactly.
Like, what do you define as "paying SN" or "paying other stackers"? If there's some sort of spilt, is part of it paid in Sats and part in CCs?
Also, from a UX perspective, it would be good to have some clearer way to choose between both CCs and Sats. Perhaps the lightning could be different colored?
Just ideas :)

Only when you zap, you pay other stackers so it will prioritize sats.
Everything else (posts, replies, boosts, votes (in polls), donations, territories, jobs, downzaps) will prioritize CCs.

Every zap pays 30% into rewards but it's not split. If you pay with sats, it's in sats. If you pay with CCs, it's in CCs. But maybe we'll implement paying the 30% fee in CCs, too. This is the first time someone brought this up actually!

Planned and I agree, I check a lot if I just paid in CCs or sats by clicking on
... and selecting 'details'. But we have to be careful with this since making the user think too much about paying in CCs or sats can also degrade UX.Perhaps the lightning could be different colored?
I don't understand, what do you mean? Wasn't this about choosing how to pay so before the bolt is colored in any way?

So when I click the LN Bolt, that's when it prioritizes Sats, because I'm "Zapping" other users. But when I do any otehr type of interaction, it prioritizes CCs.
Thanks, got it.

From what I'm understanding, the economy of SN is that CCs are not redeemable in any way. You can only buy them, not sell them.
But the way in which CCs are destroyed, and thus enabling an escape valve, is by sending those CCs back to SN through the other interactions where Sats/CCs flow to SN. It would thus make sense that CCs get prioritized for that 30% split.

I understand your point. Zaps should be quick and simple, less is more.
Thus, I provided the idea that, in case you guys choose to keep the Zaps UX/UI simple, an easy way to provide feedback to the user on "What did I just send, Sats or CCs?" would be to color the Lightning Strike that crosses your screen in a different color, depending on what was sent.
This way, the user gets a visual feedback on "You sent Sats" or "you sent CCs".
