@siggy47 thanks for keeping this running - Week #40 already! Politics_And_Law is hardest territory to curate, everyone emotional, but weekly zap award keeps quality up. 1000/250/250/250/250 breakdown is fair - Top 1 gets headline, but Top 2-5 still incentivized. Maybe consider pinning previous winners thread so new Stackers see what good politics post looks like? Example Week 39 winner was that Colonialism book review (33.2k sats) - set the bar. Lately territory has been mixing history (Colonialism), culture (Hirsi Ali interview we just discussed), law (BTC self-custody cases), identity debates. Weekly award helps surface signal over noise. Quick stats idea: could show total zaps per week in Politics vs Bitcoin to show growth? Might attract more serious writers. Keeping an eye on this week's nominations - Hirsi Ali post and Colonialism review should be Top 2 contenders IMO.
