Dear Bounty Hunters,

We’re exploring a new way to determine the daily winner—zaps still reign, but the number of zaps and likes would also carry weight.

Potential New Formula:

Zap Amount + (Number of Zaps × 10) + (Likes × 10) = Engagement Score

Example 1:

📹 Video A – 5,000 sats, 25 zaps, 50 likes

5,000 + (25 × 10) + (50 × 10) = 5,750 Engagement Score

Example 2:

📹 Video B – 3,000 sats, 25 zaps, 50 likes

3,000 + (25 × 10) + (50 × 10) = 3,750 Engagement Score

This keeps it fair, transparent, and easy to verify. What do you think? Feedback welcome! ⚡ #BullishBounty

Awesome 😎

I think it's fine; I usually do it because I see it as a good initiative.

Perhaps I would suggest a rule limiting the possibility of winning to no more than twice a week, so that everyone has more chances. But it's just an idea.

Fully agree with this idea as well.

Spread the wealth.

Make it so people can play but are only able to win once or twice a week. Or just not 2 times in a row.

What a communist idea, this notion of "spreading the wealth." The incentives are aligned: whoever gets the biggest zap wins the competition.

I see no problem with someone winning consistently—at the end of the day, it's the community itself that is choosing and paying for it.

Love the idea of likes and interactions adding to the chance of winning.

Me gusta más, así los tramposos la tienen más difícil. Lo único que me gustaría que se solucione es que hay usuarios que se hacen un usuario nuevo en nostr solo para zapear esa nota suya y ganar el premio haciendo trampa

Abierto a esto, pero ¿qué crees que sería una solución

This user is punished by the community itself, and their account doesn’t grow. We’ve already seen a case where someone sent a 21k zap and got zero engagement.

I like the way it is because the incentives are aligned—zap and decentralization are the real innovations of Nostr. I see no reason to focus on likes and reposts when zap is the metric that truly matters.

100%

That image is mine, I'm excited to see it. 😉

Its hot my fren, great job

👍

Is there a way to check 1 like per account like first zap.

This would stop people from spaming the like button

Yes I think we can do that

Happy to hear any ideas. Zaps for your input

Why not try number of zaps x 2 plus number of likes. That wayint incentivises engagement but not large zaps? Large zaps are welcome and the poster benefits. In the event of a tie, then the amount comes into play.

Are you saying remove zap amounts as a metric or in addition to zap amounts we multiply number of zaps x 2 and then add likes?

Remove the amount. That way it is 2 points for a zap, one for a like. So, in the unlikely event of shenanigans, large zaps are irrelevant. At the moment someone's mum could zap them 1 btc and they'd beat someone who had 10000 zaps of 21 sats. Who has done the most to spread the word? One huge zap or many smaller zaps?

We’re hesitant to remove the impact of zap amount—zaps represent real value, and we believe they should always be the most important metric. However, we like your idea of weighting the number of zaps more than likes to better reflect engagement. Open to refining the balance!

Zaps definitely are a great asset to the Nostr protocol. My feeling is though that if the sat amount is more beneficial than the number of zaps, you leave yourself open to abuse. That said, it is your baby.

We hear you! Balancing zap amount with engagement is tricky—we want to keep zaps as the primary metric while ensuring the system isn’t easily gamed. That’s why we’re exploring ways to weight the number of zaps more. Appreciate the input!

I like the way it was created. The idea is brilliant and highlights a unique innovation that Nostr clients brought compared to other social networks: the zap.

In the end, everything is well aligned—whoever gets the most zaps wins. Spam and similar issues are part of Nostr’s nature, and I don’t see a way to completely eliminate them. Maybe a relay with some rules could help mitigate the problem, but a definitive solution doesn’t seem feasible.

Agreed, and we appreciate this perspective. It reminds me of the Corndolrian meme with Justin Timberlake about dropping likes—Zaps are cleaner.

That said, we’re exploring ways to reward other forms of engagement while ensuring that zaps always carry the most weight.

NICE THOUGHT

Gracias a este post os sigo ahora a tod@s.

Thanks to this post, I'm now following all of you!

GOOD MORNING ☕🫶

How about?

Sorry I posted the wrong formula. The correct would be this

If I’m understanding correctly, this would prevent single large zaps from dominating, but I worry it might be too complex for the average user to easily verify.

Perhaps, on the leaderboard, instead of zap amount you have a score.?

Great idea!

Like the new formula Why not give it a try. Your BullishBounty is very creative! Thanks!

Nice

Gm

✌️

Okay 👍

Good one

🤙

Great

👀

GM

🙂 nice

Keep going

#Bullish bounty

YOU ARE DOING GREAT JOB

Bounty are for Hunterrrs

✌️

Nice opportunity

Lg

🚭

Great work

Keep it up

GM STAY HUMBLE

Love the bullishbounty thing 💪. Personally think that likes shouldn't count, only zaps. Number of zaps vs sats and the weight of each is up to you ❤️. Maybe even number of comments should count for something? Anyway, great project and will continue to enter and zap posts! 🤩

Thanks for your input!

nice

excellent!!!! lfg lets keep uploading content

Does Bullishbounty allows ads video. Great. Why not mutiply by 21.

Sure

Thanks for being put into this list. This already makes me so happy. 🧡
