(And help me learn more) Ruth was also saying she feels better here than other places. You were saying that people can lock their crypto temporarily into someone\u2019s post to show how much they value the information (as opposed to a big blue thumbs up \u201clike\u201d on fb) and Ruth was saying something like \u201cuntil it forms a block\u201d. What does this mean? What happens once these little amounts form a block? You said that people temporarily locking their crypto into a post is in lieu of them spending it right now. A small sacrifice that allows them to express themself - show and learn what their spirit is aligned to in the moment. Is that right? So maybe it\u2019s safe to say that one of the things that makes this special - besides the idea of infinitely branching threads - is that people share a common interest in crypto. Specifically BSV? Only BSV? Is that correct? Is this one of the reasons why someone would choose to hold BSV? That it enables them to play this game of locking their currency of choice into posts to express themselves? Is it something like being able to play with your money in the bank instead of just leaving it there doing nothing?", "media_type": "text/markdown", "filename": "|", "author": "14aqJ2hMtENYJVCJaekcrqi12fiZJzoWGK", "display_name": null, "channel": null, "parent_txid": "d35af344d2e8c5c8c84a442c8bd2a04fa2e02dedd0d818b2fe5e121afdda4ab0", "ref_txid": null, "tags": null, "reply_count": 12, "like_count": 0, "timestamp": "2024-07-17T02:39:37.000Z", "media_url": null, "aip_verified": true, "has_access": true, "attachments": [], "ui_name": "14aqJ2\u2026oWGK", "ui_display_name": "14aqJ2\u2026oWGK", "ui_handle": null, "ui_display_raw": null, "ui_signer": "14aqJ2hMtENYJVCJaekcrqi12fiZJzoWGK", "ref_ui_name": "unknown", "ref_ui_signer": "unknown" }

  "map_content": "So the tiny amount is locked until you reach a certain block height, or some number of blocks into the future, in my case it\u2019s set to 100. A BSV block takes roughly 10 minutes to complete globally\u2014it equates to a block of transactions added to the blockchain by mining nodes. So the sats are locked for 10 minutes x 100 in my case. BSV is perhaps the only blockchain that allows you to lock (or send) fractions of a penny for a certain length of time, which is why metamitya uses BSV, though he also allows people an ordinary thumbs up style upvote (might only be on private threads at the moment, not sure), so you don\u2019t have to use crypto to participate. Locking crypto is equivalent to costly signalling, however, or having some skin in the game, so carries more weight as a signal. I think this place feels better than other places partly because the founder(s) are good and generous people, and they attract similar. Plus deep dives are encouraged by the structure of the threading itself. You needn\u2019t follow down a thread unless it interests you, keeping the user agency and engagement high. Possibly, the more populated the platform becomes the more guarded people will become, but for now, it\u2019s both gloriously contrarian and also free of ridicule and trolling. It may also be because many (most?) of its users hold some BSV that we\u2019re all to some extent on the same page as liberty-minded folks who don\u2019t mind being the unpopular kids in the crypto playground \ud83d\ude09.",
