There will be a zap award for the top 5 posts weekly. It will be broken down as follows:

  1. 1000 sats (or higher if threshold is met)
  2. 250 sats (or higher if threshold is met)
  3. 250 sats (or higher if threshold is met)
  4. 250 sats (or higher if threshold is met)
  5. 250 sats (or higher if threshold is met)

If the average daily territory income exceeds 2000 sats in a given week, THAT amount will be split among the winners.

Average daily territory income this week:
Below threshold

Threshold:
2000

Posts will be judged using SN zaprank. The cut off time is 9:00am EST (1300GMT) Friday morning. I will post the top 5 winners shortly after 9:00am every Friday morning.

I reserve the right to not award any sats for the week. I also reserve the right to deny sat awards to bare link posts. I recognize that link posts can be valuable, so I will only only exercise discretion for low quality links that garner few sats or engagement from stackers.

DarthCoin’s GuidesDarthCoin’s Guides

DarthCoin is a somewhat controversial figure with a manner that may take some getting used to, but I think his guides are excellent as step by step instruction. The sentence structure might be unconventional, and he may express some strong opinions, but you will learn what he has set out to teach you.
Here is a link to DarthCoin’s Substack Page, where you can find all of DarthCoin’s guides:

@RadentorForNoxus has created a comprehensive ecosystem map. I believe he intends to keep this list updated. Beginners will benefit from checking it out, as will experienced bitcoiners.

Why Bitcoin Only is a massive trove of links, where you can find just about anything you’re looking for. It’s also fun to browse around.

Top Posts Of All TimeTop Posts Of All Time

Here you will find a few of the top posts that have been posted to this territory. I am not going to adhere to a rigid zaprank system, since my purpose is to highlight content that has educational value. I will use an informal combination of zaprank and my own evaluation. For instance, some posts, though of high quality, are solely about Stacker News, and might have more appropriately originated as a meta post.
