What is the purpose of rewards on SN?
I've always assumed that they are a way to incentivize content curation and moderation (read zaps) on the site.
Posting and commenting carry their own incentives. But zapping, being anonymous, is really just a "out of the goodness of my heart" kind of thing...
...unless you get rewards for zapping good content.
Rewards provide the incentive for zaps. It's pretty incredible really. One of the several strokes of absolute genius at SN.
But zapping, being anonymous, is really just a "out of the goodness of my heart" kind of thing...
The zapping when you are anonymous is a more unscrupulous way of zapping your own posts and gaming the system, especially for bounties. Maybe anon can't zap when the post contains a bounty.

I can understand there being an Anon, but this can lead to abuse of the anonymity that this provides and @anon trust score is meaningless.

Maybe @anon can't zap, they can only post. No gaming the bounty's or your own posts

To post anonymously costs 100 sats. Maybe this could be raised to make sure if you really want to post anonymously then you have to pay big. 200 / 300 sats
Just some ideas to close down the @anon loophole
