192 sats \ 18 replies \ @PJr_2017 OP 19 May 2023 \ parent \ on: How to earn in stacker news bitcoin
Well that is how it was advertised when I clicked on the ad, so is it my fault to expect that its all just about sats?
Can you show us the ad? :)
I think I heard about a marketing campaign running on fountain.fm but I haven't seen it myself.
reply
Yes SN paid to be on fountain I saw it yesterday…. It was all about “earning” I threw up a bit but whatever

If SN is presented in the wild as "earning sats site"... it is wrong.
This is not a assmilking site...

It is Darth. I think the solution if we keep moving this direction is a sub that requires 1,000 sats per comment or post instead of only 1.
I wouldn’t post as much only when I really had something to contribute

You should not post to get sats, you should post to learn/discuss or teach others (especially shitcoiners) how bitcoin works.
reply
I think they will learn over time. They can post only thinking about "earning sats" but these posts will probably not earn them sats.
I see this like how most people get into bitcoin: first only thinking about the price to sell for more fiat. But then slowly getting it over time ...

This. The incentive structure built into SN by and large deters shitposting and "sat farming". You very quickly learn that valuable content and contributions are what will stack sats. It's a win-win. Shit, just look at Darth's stack.

Sorry man, but that is proof of work.
I didn't came on SN with the only purpose of "earning sats".
As you can see I also spend quite a lot. But not throwing with large amount of sats around. Hard work and NATURAL work (not shity bots) should be rewarded and promoted.
And mostly because I am one of the oldest SN user. Why? Because I (still) have faith in SN.

That's what I'm saying, though. You come on here to create and share valuable content, and you're rightfully rewarded for that. Others may come here with the less altruistic intent to just stack sats, but they'll quickly realize that to do so they too will need to provide value.
It's like a lane closure on a two lane road. Here on SN, the lane for spamming, shitposting, and karma farming is closed so everyone is forced into the V4V lane.
