30 sats \ 5 replies \ @supratic 30 Oct \ on: Research in Public #07: The incentive structures on Stacker News (WIP) econ
Once a new territory is founded, users can post in that territory by paying a posting fee which is set by the territory owner. The territory owner earns 70% of the posting fee as revenue, and the other 30% goes to a daily rewards pool (more on that later).
You could link to the great post about understanding SN fees and maybe use some charts from https://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/19871667/
To make the paper more digestible by a general audience is useful to add dollar values near sats values i.e. 50,000 sats | $50USD and 10 sats | $0,01USD (considering a rounded rate of 1BTC = $100,000USD to ease the conversion)
[4] I'd link today post #1269536
Testing hypothesis 6 would be super cool if we could compare SN post quality to r/bitcoin.
This will be a great comparison. Have you planned a way to measure post-quality? Is engagement, zaprank, spent/comment, time-on-page and other similar metrics considered? What else?
Great write up overall, thanks for wrapping SN in such a cohesive and professional way.

oh and to measure post quality i have a few thoughts, but nothing concrete yet. that's definitely on the to-do list. I am more worried about my ability to get access to Reddit data

Good scraping software could help

I'm gonna check out their API access terms first. I've done scraping before, but it's very painful and annoying to do haha.

Thanks, good feedback. I'll think about the dollar conversion thing. The initial audience will hopefully be other bitcoiners, and I kinda like this insistence on using sats only and not dollars! haha

ahaha, ok make sense that bitcoiners here and there will read it. But is such good writing that could spark laser eye in some noobs heads. I thought the paper was going to be submitted to #1242096 as you mentioned here #1243188
