Here are a few tips and tricks to add value to SN
Most users lurk. Few stack. Want to join the few? Here’s how to create value that actually earns sats
  1. Share insights, not noise.
    No one zaps low-effort content. Drop takes, guides, or unique angles— especially around Bitcoin, sovereignty, and open-source. Bonus points for being sharp and helpful.
  2. Be early, be useful
    Jump in on fresh stories. Help someone solve a problem. The earlier and more useful you are, the more you stand out.
  3. Ask questions that spark brains
    A thoughtful question can sometimes get more zaps than a full post. People love to share what they know—give them a reason to.
  4. Support to be seen
    Zap others. Leave quality comments. Curate good content. It builds your rep and gets eyes on your posts too.
  5. Show up consistently
    The algorithm is simple: post smart stuff often. Keep stacking and your sats will compound.

An example of a valuable post would be to post a guide on how to consolidate UTXOs. It is important for beginners to get familiar and learn about UTXOs. Let me know if you'd like me to elaborate on this example and give practical solutions on how to consolidate UTXOs (:

It's in your tips, but I would really stress the value of thoughtful comments and zapping thoughtful comments.
Posts get lots of zaps, which makes it relatively harder to score highly on post zapping. Comments get fewer and smaller zaps, so it's a little easier to rank at the top of comment zapping.

Great point
Comments are definitely underrated when it comes to stacking sats. Quality replies can really stand out and get noticed. Zapping those adds a lot of value to the convo too.

What is AI if not the extension of our own thoughts?
