Why do people zap you when you refuse to enable LN wallets here on SNs???

reply

the horse shows people who can receive right? might take that into account in my future zapping. thank you for bringing this up. didn't realize

reply

Nothing wrong with zapping somebody that do not have attached any external wallet.

Solomonsatoshi is just an idiot that doesn't understand the mechanics of SN.

i read it and want to ask some things, to see if i understood your reasoning

you didn't attach an external wallet so if someone zaps you you get cc. then you offer cc for people that have to pay their territories with cc? do they have to?

reply

If they want to pay with CC for their territories, and do not want to use their sats directly, yes they can get more CCs from other stackers. But my offer will always be 1 sat = 1 CC so doesn't help them too much, they can do that directly from their account too.

I am NOT using CCs especially for this and I do not have too many CCs because I use them inside SN to post.

I will repeat this over and over: SN is a "pay to post" not "pay to earn sats". So... by using CCs, I pay less sats to post... This is how you stack sats, not by assmilking like others are trying to do here and accusing me of stupid things.

I am old enough here to know how SN mechanic works.
Most of people attached an external wallet with the stupid idea in their mind that will "earn sats" (aka assmilking). IMHO attaching an external wallet it create too much friction for some meaningless zaps back and forth and will create more pressure on my node.
Instead I could use CCs because in the end I just need some "credits" to post on SN. That's all.

Zaps on SN are upvotes for posts. It doesn't matter if you pay with CC or sats from external wallets. But some stupid people here consider that you must connect an external wallet to "participate in a circular economy". SN is just fine as circular economy by using CCs. Nothing wrong with that. Circular means, it stays inside. So CCs stay inside.

The real bitcoin circular economy happen outside of SN... but these people don't know that. They are not even capable of spending sats outside of SN... meanwhile I live exclusively using bitcoin from 2018.

I spend wisely my sats...

your reason to not use sats is cause it is more expensive than using cc?

'Zaps on SN are upvotes for posts. It doesn't matter if you pay with CC or sats from external wallets.'

Wrong. It does matter. If you use sats then if you zap me I get sats, not CCs.
If I send you sats you get CCs not sats.
By not attaching wallets you undermine the P2P liquidity and utility of the LN.

The LN only grows stronger if we use it- and you are boycotting the everyday regular use of sats on SNs.

You are boycotting the use of sats P2P in all of your activity in SNs.

You are thus undermining the growth and development of a circular BTC economy on SNs.

LN can only grow if it is used. SNs is a place where we can send and receive sats everyday- fueling the growth of wallets and the nodes etc that are essential to a growing LN.

I will keep reminding you of this and how it is a great hypocrisy from you when you claim to be living on The Bitcoin Standard.

Someone who cannot be bothered attaching a wallet here is boycotting the SNs Bitcoin circular economy.
@DarthCoin is doing this because he calls it (SNs) a game that he does not want to waste his precious sats on.
If we do not use LN it dies.
Just like the aps that lack dev support.
Some people may not have the technical skill to attach wallets but @DarthCoin is certainly capable of attaching LN wallets if he wants to but he simply chooses not to because he does not want to participate in the growth and strength of the LN/BTC circular economy.
So when he claims to be living on The Bitcoin Standard we all know now he is talking pure bullshit...he cant even be bothered attaching LN wallets here on SNs.

reply

Yes horse can receive and gun can send.
@DarthCoin refuses to enable either.

reply

is there more besides hat, horse and gun?

reply

Not as far as I can see. Those are the main ones anyway.

reply

How many times I have to explain you why I do not want to attach an external wallet and how SN works ?
STFU fucking idiot.

reply

You have said you think SNs is a game and that you dont want to waste your precious sats on a game.
That imo is pure bullshit and does not in anyway align with your stated position as a Bitcoin Maxi living on The Bitcoin Standard.
There are fuck all places we can enjoy and support a BTC circular economy and SNs is one of them but you refuse for reasons that do not equate to anything more that laziness, selfishness and cynicism.
You have great technical knowledge and share that generously but I cannot understand why with such knowledge you cannot attach wallets and be part of the circular economy.
In this post here you complain about aps not being maintained- you know that for any system to be maintained and developed requires people to use it!
If we dont use LN/BTC where and when we can (like on SNs) how the fuck will it ever grow and keep developing?
If you did not make such a big deal of how you are so keen on living on The Bitcoin Standard then it would not be such blatant hypocrisy- not everyone here probably sees BTC as important- but you say you do yet you boycott this opportunity to use LN and help grow and strengthen the protocol.
I will keep calling out your blatant hypocrisy because that is what it looks like to me.

Because government currency is collapsing and when it does, Bitcoin becomes the only way to afford food and shelter. That's how BTC gets adopted. Stacker News is for spectating.
