I have noticed that there seem to be quite a few territories that don't have much going on and my guess is that is because no one cares about them, beyond their value in name, like "real-estate" scam shitcoin value storage. How can we deal with this? And how many of these territories are basically ghost towns?
That is how ~art is. I want to support the space but its kind of lame when there is no one around and it feels so dead.

I always think about this guy when I think about being a territory founder:
Actually, the whole post to which I replied is related.

I have many ideas for ~security and ~crypto but no execution. I had a big idea for ~oracle with delphi.market but also no significant execution for over a year.1 I decided to let it go (for now??) because we have Predyx now and thus transferred the territory to @mega_dreamer. It sucks to be an idea guy, I tell you that, lol.
I think the best founders that actually care about their territories are @siggy47 and @grayruby. @Public_N_M_E also comes to mind because I like to share my music in the daily discussion thread.
But other than that… good question. But that’s just my limited view.

I agree that those seem like the ones that put the most into their territories. I can see why being good with ideas would be tough. Always getting new inspiring moments and then ending up with too many to have focus. I suspect Idea people are not as good at executing. Can't have it all guess. I suppose that is why we work in teams. Thanks for sharing.

So that's why he isn't posting in sports anymore. Makes sense now.

No no. I just couldn't figure out why he wasn't posting the new sports markets like Super Bowl etc in sports but instead in oracle but it makes sense now. It's all good. I use predyx every day.

transferred the territory
Do you mean sold? or gifted?

I used the transfer feature a few days before the next monthly bill was due:
We didn’t wait for it to get archived since then whoever pays first gets it.

I saw the functionality available, it's great but hopefully I'll never use it! I was more wondering if you got back the sats you spent for the territory, or you just give it to someone else that will be happy to care and pay the monthly bill?
reply
Based on engagement by territory owner, the order should be
Some of the territory owners are idle because they've invested 3million sats and they know they'll definitely get it back, may be little late. But nothing wrong in that, they may have their reasons.

Based on engagement by territory owner
Interesting, I've been trying to measure general engagement #751715 inspired by @supratic post #457310, and has been really time-consuming activity to gather the data and present it nicely.
So curious, how do you measure engagement by territory owner and got this list above?
reply
TBH, I didn't look at any of the analytics. It's my personal opinion or personal analysis. You can disagree. I should've included yours as well. Sorry about that.
I've based them on the efforts put in by the territory owners. I believe comments on posts, regular visits by specific Stackers and the number of posts in a day might give a clue about overall engagement.

Wow, ok! I thought you were doing some kind of analytics! You have excellent senses and perception, it will be nice to bake and support it with some data ;) Don't trust, verify! right?
reply
Yupp! I agree. I'll follow it up with some analytics as well. But as you said it's really time consuming. Anyways I'll come up with some.
Your analysis based on supeatic's post is really worth looking at. You were actually more accurate and unbiased. I was, as it was my personal thought, was biased ;).
In fact I'm running an Awards show that also include Territory of the Year. #808073 Here you will find what are top 5 territories first then on 31st, we'll find out what's Stackers' choice Territory of the Year. No analysis, just bas d on participating Stackers.

the ~Music Territory seems very engaged from the outside. I'm not really in it but from the outside looks like real effort
I wish the ~Photography was still around but it wasn't really into what I was into

Come hang out some time, see if you find something new to enjoy, or something old to reminisce over.

The ~DIY territory - my baby, my passion project, my excuse to procrastinate on actual work. I mean, who needs productivity when you can have a virtual plot of land with a cool name, right? But seriously, just because we don't have a bustling metropolis of activity doesn't mean we're not alive and kicking (or at least, occasionally twitching).
As for the value of our territory, well, let's just say we're holding out for the inevitable DIY revolution. When the world finally realizes that crafting and fixing things yourself is the key to true happiness, our little territory will be worth its weight in gold (digital gold). Until then, we'll just keep on keeping on, enjoying the peaceful quiet of our virtual ghost town.
So, to answer your question, I'd say there are probably a few territories like ours out there - not exactly thriving hubs of activity, but still beloved by their owners and awaiting their chance to shine. And who knows? Maybe one day we'll all band together and create a vibrant community of... well, not exactly ghost towns, but perhaps "virtual villages" or "online outskirts"? The possibilities are endless!

I've been trying hard to make ~Design a better and more engaging territory. How? Organizing contests like FUCs, ODCs and JABBBs and getting really little engagement, despite my efforts to share these contents across other different design communities (apparently not interested to learn about bitcoin).
Behind that, on SN, look's like a design=ui=boring=now-we-have-ai. I get it, the audience isn't here yet for it. I'll be patient and keep hammering the nail.

Sometimes the area is quiet, many people don't care, because it's still quiet, to beautify it, we hope friends will help seriously develop the area.
