Nostr Web Client

Ever consider gamification? Like achievements for zapping x times in a day/lifetime, or badges for zapping more than x amount at once or overall.

Im relatively new to nostr and not the techiest girl in the world, and so far the zapping is one of the more interesting aspects that keeps my engagement with Nostr. Encouraging and rewarding the zapper with recognition of their generosity seems like it could be a way to incentivize zapping, and thus entice newer users to engage with the community more.

Without KYC profiles there is the possibility to zap to yourself in another different personal profile. I cannot see a way where this can avoided so badges would proliferate.

Maybe I'm missing something, correct me if there could be a way 😕

I don't see why anything needs to be "incentivized". How do you know that zapping more than whats happening naturally is good?

It is as though Nostr would earn tax from zapping and wants to incentivize zapping with shiny badges. It'll be pointless if someone ever does it. Anyway.

Here's a true incentive for zapping:
