Hey @JoeNakamoto I want to send you sats, but it looks like I sent you cowboy credits instead! Have you thought about setting up an attached wallet here?

i don't understand what you mean by cowboy credits?

I wrote a quick summary here: #842835
Essentially Stacker News now supports non-custodial zapping, but if either payer or payee do not have connected wallets, then it uses "cowboy credits" instead of actual sats.
tl;dr: connect your wallet with nwc. For example coinos. I wrote a tutorial for that here #808573

Earlier this year Stacker.News decided not to hold other peoples' funds in custody anymore. Now, the only way to send sats to one another here is if you have an attached wallet. If you don't have an attached wallet, you'll end up receiving "cowboy credits" instead, which can be used like sats within SN, but not outside of it.

This is amazing. You are doing the lords work!

Thank you so much for your video. The sad thing of course... is that anyone here on stacker news already knows bitcoin ==// crypto.
Then there is the largish number of people who know that bitcoin ==// crypto but 'don't care' because they want a pump and dump.
Then there are the people (99%) who don't know the difference yet but will eventually. Thank you again and also thanks to Mr Giacomo (wish he joined us here on SN am a huge fan)

Good man! I hope people outside the Bitcoin community will see your videos!

what a legend! 🤣 great stuff!

Great video! I'm afraid we are going to see more and more of this, and occasionally its leaking in here too. Fantastic to document and expose, to increase awareness.
I think that especially this year, we are going to see more scam "L2" projects on Bitcoin, and Bitcoiners need to be very considered in the airtime they give people "here to save bitcoin (but really to rip everyone off)".

Is the terminology of 3rd, 2nd, and 1st degree scams official jargon? I've never heard of that way of describing it.
reply
no it's just IMO a great way of framing it :)

You’re like the hero we need but don’t deserve. Thanks for tearing their falsehoods!
