Supposed to be stress testing wallets and the network but that's kinda hard when each zapathon is planned out for every Thursday and Friday @ 5pm ET and they can prepare for it so we end up just sending a bunch of zaps to send a bunch of zaps hoping we get at least 50% of our sats back throughout the week for our content we note.

Others will hype you up about zapathon for this reason or that reason.

I recommend sitting back, watching, and see if it's something you actually want to partake in, even more so being new as new users don't have any connections or following built up to receive zaps back.
