Hey!

We (still) believe that Reddit users should be the most receptive to Stacker News.

Therefore, we’ve decided to experiment with something new:

We’re going to pay 2,500 sats every day to the best Reddit post or comment that includes a link to SN.

We consider a post or comment “good” if it has a lot of upvotes or comments. If you think yours could win, post a link to it here (or just post a link to all of them that include a link to SN).

However, since this is just an experiment, everything about it might change at any time—the bounty amount, how we pick winners, how often we do it, or even whether we keep doing it at all.

Looking forward to seeing how this goes!

Oh and remember: SN is not just about ~bitcoin, so you can share links to SN anywhere on Reddit.

2,500 sats paid 3 times

@ek every time I switch to this account (via switch account) and make a post or comment it prompts me to add a lightning address but I have always had a lightning address attached and even if I enter my address into the prompt, I still get the prompt again the next comment or post.

Only happens on this account. grayruby account is fine.

Are you also @grayruby?

lol, it now says I paid you the bounty because I zapped you 5k sats

but the bounty is still open

reply

Thanks for the sats. I will ensure they get spread back into the community.

Ohhh, there's a bug related to privacy settings, thank you!

Will fix today. Should be an easy fix that @k00b can also deploy soon.

reply

heck yes we are! and then we gamble it away at predyx and other bookmakers

Maybe we will leave that part out until we lure into our lair.

Tips to increase Stacker News users (I thought of this recently):

Make a Stacker News Reddit account
Use the Intip bot
Zap good comments (users of Reddit) some sats (even 20 is enough).
You'll get acknowledged!
Get more visitors

Reddit has become really controlling. Mods ban you easily if you share a link to external sites. Go to the Bitcoin subreddit and try to link a post from here; users are so up that they downvote even without seeing it, and mods ban you for no reason. This method looks good. Users are frustrated and are trying to find a new place for where there is noo spam, like many have moved to Stack Exchange. I'm sure when they see Stacker News, they'll jump on it, just like I did.

My local municipal subreddit automatically removes posts containing the word Bitcoin.

This is the intip bot. It won't be removed?

For your interest, I didn't pay you the bounty for this because:

  • it only had 4 upvotes but no comments
  • it's a post from 4 months ago
  • I already paid the bounty for your other submitted link (#959372)
  • I also paid the bounty for #961648
  • I didn't actually intend to pay out the bounty multiple times

but I think I will pay each reddit link at my discretion from now on to create more interest in doing this.

thanks and fair enough I mention SN on reddit whenever the opportunity comes up as a refugee from reddit SN is a hugely better experience, but having invested a lot of time building the r/BitcoinNewZealand sub I still lurk on reddit occasionally to keep the sub going- have listed SNs on the sidebar of the sub too.
Shadowbanning and censorship generally had become chronic on Reddit and then I found SNs.
I hope more SN users keep posting links to SN on reddit as it has to be a good source of new contributors.

reply

Ahh, too bad I blocked reddit on my home network.
