I'm considering to implement a #zapatcha alternative to capatchas on a site of mine. To let users choose to play a boooring minigame or #zap!

In the future I am not sure what the norm will be.
I worry that sats to view pages could make the problem of clickbait and click farming worse and more profitable.
I like the idea of paying to unlock a page to prove you are a person but then at the end of the article having an option to return your sats if you did not find the page valuable
Essentially a money back guarantee.
A #zapatcha can be of a much less sat ammount than a pay peer view and should be.
They just have to be friction enough to not make it worth the effort for hackers / attackers.
In contrast I sometimes get captchas that are slow and take minutes to get passed. That time is never returned to me, sadly. So sometimes I just leave the site annoyed 😜
True.
A different use case and I totally agree aoit the annoyance.
And they keep getting weirder and weirder.
It started with traffic lights and now it's clicking on psychedelic AI animals.
