100 sats \ 4 replies \ @Coinsreporter 5 Jul \ on: Top Territories Q1+Q2 2025 meta
It's basically the higher zaps in these territories, be they on posts or comments.
Posts in ~meta are getting zapped more total sats than ~lightning, ~Stacker_Sports, and ~econ, and yet it has less revenue.
I also don't think that's the full story: remember, territory owners only get 21% of zaps in their territory, they get 70% of fees and boosts. When you look at percent revenue from fees and boosts, about half the territories in the top 20 are making more than half their revenue from fees and boosts -- which don't have anything to do with zaps.

I'm saying that ~AMA and ~lightning has higher zaps on average on posts or comments both. That's why they rank higher. My ultimate analysis says that
Zaps are the soul of SN so whatever territory gets higher zaps on average becomes higher and that's a common. Territories that make more revenue through fees are lower.reply
~AMA certainly has the highest zaps per post and per comment.
~lightning, not so much. At least 9 territories have higher total sats zapped per post than ~lightning, yet it's third in revenue. How do you explain this? Neither is ~lightning in the top 5 for number of posts or number of comments.
~lightning has fewer posts than ~Politics_And_Law, but a higher average sats zapped per post, so your observation is backed up by that. But I'm not sure it's as clear as you say. Especially when it comes to territory revenue vs stacker revenue.

Stacker revenue and territory revenue are are interconnected in a way. If Stackers generate higher sats inside a territory that territory definitely gets more sats in revenue.
I'm not expert, I just related things to what I've observed. So not saying you're wrong, just telling my opinion.
