I sent 60,000 sats today as a test…

Here’s what happened, what I learned, and what I want to test next:

First off, I’m new to nostr, but things here excite me - I want to experiment, connect, and build.

In the last 24 hours I sent:

-199 zaps

- 60,000 sats

- Average of 301 sats per zap

- Second most sats zapped on the day

What happened:

- Gained 87 new followers

- Cost per follow 689 sats (~$0.65)

- Super high signal followers (people building on Nostr, Founders, etc.)

After doing a bit of research, it appears follower campaigns on X average around $1-2 per follow 🤷

I decided to mainly use “testing something…” as the text that goes along with the zap… not super direct, but was hoping that it was enough to peak curiosity…

I almost decided to go with “quick question” which probably would have performed better, but also pissed more people off at the same time…

That’s another thing I noticed, there is definitely a % of users who really hate all things related to this zap-vertising concept.

My next test:

Today I zapped 199 total zaps with an average of 301 sats per zap.

Now, I want to try sending several thousand zaps, with an average sats per zap around 10 or so…

We’ll see how it goes 🫡
