I love this initial roadmap! If anyone is interested in experimenting with it please, let me know :)
My hunch is that roughly 1% of tipping users should be enough to generate signal. It will likely be a higher % if there are rewards beyond pure altruism.
I think you can generate user rewards via other income streams - e.g. a jobs board like Stacker News'. Or maybe a premium subscription with additional privacy or enterprise features? Or maybe tied to another revenue generating biz like @TheBTCManual described with Ahrefs and Yep.com?
And yes the trust model piece needs a lot of experimentation. Perhaps it's established with LSATs, DIDs, or could maybe even be tied into Nostr as someone mentioned to me this morning. Lots to explore there...
What teams are working on validity roll ups on Bitcoin? Any we should follow?
A Halo 2-based roll up would be really cool. I haven't seen any mention of this outside of your research.
I think its also important to figure out how to communicate the rules to the members, especially the new comers. Getting banned is one way to learn but there might be better ways.
Btw, I think we are currently treating (or we could/should be) SN as one Bitcoin maxi community. That's IMHO the best way to get things started, but there is potential for SN to grow into a platform with many communities.
I would describe myself as a non-custodial pragmatist.
I use custodial wallets mainly for micropayments, e.g. zaps on nostr and also as a backup solution when my nodes don't work for some reason. I am totally fine with the current stacker.news solution.
An ideal wallet should be able to switch between different backends (maybe automatically if needed?), like Zeus and getAlby, where you can connect to your own node, but also to custodial solutions.
