90 sats \ 6 replies \ @k00b 12 Nov \ on: Will a big bullrun see more people join stacker news? AskSN
I'm not sure it will. It might if people knew we existed, but they don't.
I don't think it's a bull run either. Maybe some publicity in specific places will help. I'm doing my bit by sharing some links on nostr. I believe in the SN model but I know it's a difficult model for the vast majority of people to fit into.

v4v does seem to be very hard in practice

Technically.... v4v is 'not' the model of sat-sharing that SN employs. It's real sats, back and forth, for quality content.
Over a long-enough time period the whole internet will function this way as it's just better...
From what I understand... 'v4v' is a bitcoin scaling protocol where the amount of sats 'sent'... cannot be verified independently by the receiver (which is not the case right now obviously)

true. I myself had a hard time absorbing v4v idea. Proof of this was my start on SN, the day I registered I made a post (link) and then I didn't come back for a month. During that month the only thought I could think of was, SN people are so geeky! Ahaah

@k00b would it be possible to do like a colab with, for example, some of the various bitcoin businesses, like Fountain, cold card etc, where they perhaps get given a territory here and it would act as a subreddit for their product/business/service, and they could mention it or have permalinks in their marketing and communications and whatnot to spread the word.
sure, we could argue that many of them already have a subreddit, but i think it would make sense for them to have something here since we are all balls deep in bitcoin anyway. SN seems like a very appropriate place to be and the more btc-type businesses that come, the more the word spreads etc. just a thought
