Show HN: Decentralized Bitcoin Incentives via QR Codes
Decentralized Bitcoin rewards system using QR codes, staking, and Lightning Network. Open for collaboration!" - DT7QR/Bitcoin-Rewards-System-Proposal
New Peer's Incentive: New participants (<1 week, no staking history) completing consecutive scans receive a one-time random ERC-20/testnet bonus to encourage onboarding. The system is designed to navigate global regulatory landscapes: U.S. peers: Rewards are distributed via non-custodial LN wallets with minimal logs to comply with IRS/SEC rules. The system combines off-chain and on-chain components for efficiency: Off-Chain: hashed wallet IDs, timestamps, ERC-20/testnet totals On-Chain: A dApp enforces limits, nonces, and tracks staking/governance data Reward Distribution: Manual BTC/LN payouts Setup Efficiency: Core components (hashing, nonces, limits) leverage trusted tools for rapid deployment.
