I never paid attention to this

79 sats \ 30 replies \ @siggy47 2h

I never did either until recently. I mean, I don't mind new stackers who are just getting a feel for SN. What really bugs me are the guys who have been here a while whose motives I'm beginning to question.

reply

Yeah a lot them don't have the gun including some big names here...

Oh my dear @car where's your gun??!

I agree the CCs have given a fair advantage to those who aren't willing to zap real sats.

reply

Coins enters the chat coming in spicy 🌶️

reply

Am I zapping you sats?? Can you please confirm my spice for ya??

The zine creator and distributer also don't have the gun.
We can probably say she looks pretty without a gun.

reply

Hahaha I just never paid close attention to this

reply

You know why I zap 21 because most of the times less than 21 sats zap turn into CCs for the receiver.
And knowing this, I wanted to question the creator of CCs, but ...but, noone can.

Another is @denlillaapan, btw - the one who here recieves max sats from all of us, no doubt he's very much talented and knows how to play with word, phrases and sentences, he edited some big Bitcoin books.
But .... But .... All of what he posts here are mere links from MSM with his own commentry (his own view point)... No disrespect to him but 'not holding gun' certainly makes him a Sats hoarder if nothing else. ;)

reply

100% a sats hoarder -- there's basically no other reason to be here, all of y'alls cool commentary aside.

and no, I finally had enough of the tech troubles in trying to keep a send-sats wallet function with SN; there's a 100 things that can go wrong, and they ALWAYS seemed to. (Have you seen me complain about the tech lately?!)

I gave up, took pride in not using it, occasionally paid for CCs whenever I need to post.

reply

Well, thanks for accepting, most are here for sats, including I. I didn't mean you aren't good in my books. Just thought it's not a problem to have a wallet always working with SN. I use coinos and it is so far the best and I don't think I've had troubles with it in near past.

Sounds like cope to me and that’s fine

Ahh hahah you are giving me a new perspective on all these stackers.

Especially all the ones who come at me for my fiat ways.

Especially all the ones who come at me for my fiat ways.

💯 They are the ones who are the biggest hypocrites and don't even know that no freedom is won hiding faces behind masks. The revolts need open challenges, open debates, open fights.

And when someone says they do it for safety, do hell with them because they need safety required is not exclusive to Bitcoin.

35 sats \ 8 replies \ @Car 1h

its too much friction, k00b already knows this and i believe he should have a solution here pretty soon to account for that

i zap mostly all my cc's or sats then when i am low i load more sats, i honestly do not see what the problem is, what exactly is the complaint

Then why do you have an attached receive wallet? Has Darth been right all along? Was this whole wallet attachment thing a waste of time and effort?

Then why do you have an attached receive wallet?

Because thats what I was required to do when SN flipped over. Couldn't stay custodial.

Has Darth been right all along?

Darth always complains about Stacker News, he's been doing it since its inception. This is nothing new. He once rage quitted then he came back once things evolved, because thats what products do...evolve.

Was this whole wallet attachment thing a waste of time and effort?

Its iteration, SN was born in 2021 it was a different time in Lightning.

reply

you are wrong as usual, not paying attention to my words...

reply

I don't agree that it's waste of an effort. It might bring in new users, possibly making things like posting easier on SN. But SN needs to handle it with care in future, it'll be one or the other way. Either SN will be an updated version of reddit with CCs or it'll be SN with Sats. Only one will survive or SN will remain sidelined.

Why I said so, because I believe most platforms are gonna integrate some for of tipping, many already have. YouTube has it by way of subscription, twitter has it. People are smart. Bitcoiners are smarter. They want to earn...earn in whatever ways. If their belief is in Bitcoin, they can turn their money into Bitcoin by buying it with less capable forms of money. Can't they?

What I mean is it's best we here at SN remain the torchbearers for a true Bitcoin circulation. Most of the other places I see the propoganda like 'we accept Bitcoin' — hidden truth 'its automatically converted to filthy Fiat upon reciept.

reply

No complains for you, not at all. It's just something I have and you don't. I'm proud of this. Haha.

The complain is for those who don't attach their wallets while hoarding sats from us. Many with the horse are getting sats directly into their wallets but not zapping in return — not even in CCs.

Thanks for clearing that up.

Like I said before, k00b is working on an update for this, he is down one person. Products evolve over time, gotta stay patient.

reply

Yeah, no complains for you. You do and forever want good things for SN, just joked because I saw you don't have the gun, got surprised. I just can't/don't want to take the names of many of those who will come crashing hard at me. There are many, you know who intentionally don't want to attach and don't zap in real sats but are happy to recieve sats directly to their wallets — the hypocrites, the sats hoarder or in their own words they are assmilkers.

You sir I know is opposite.

reply

it's rare that I agree wholeheartedly with Car, but alas here we are!

reply

Like Darth! Bangs on me but yet only uses CCs 😆

He's a different case. He stated he wasn't connecting from day one, and he doesn't have a horse. The ones with JUST a horse connected that bug me.

reply

Ahh okay. The growing pains of SN adoption.

While I'm in complaining mode, now if you hide your cowboy hat status you automatically hide your attached wallet status. That makes it easier for assmilkers to hide.

reply

But are they assmilkers if SN allows this to happen? If they pay CCs to post and they are able to receive sat zaps then it make sense people would do this on mass. Especially those who are looking more to extract than to contribute.

It’s clear SN celebrates stackers more than zappers the way the incentives are celebrated.

reply

Exactly. I think SN needs it but this is kind of a dilemma in itself. SN may correct it in future though by abolishing CCs once it's large enough in stackers count. However I also feel that the chances for the opposite - for CCs to hold on SN — are higher than the Sats.

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @siggy47 1h

Good point. That's why I probably shouldn't have used the word assmilker. It is a problem with SN right now. Guys like us who zap are generous for the good of the site, but we will reach our limits someday.

reply

Does this mean your net sats inflow is negative? What about net cc inflow? You can use cc to pay for territory costs right?

you are too dumb to understand why I use only CCs.

reply

After so much time you still don't get it, why I use only CCs.
I wonder when people here will pay attention to what I am saying all days along. And yet many people still don't get the mechanics of SN and fall for the trap of connecting an external wallet.
