The framing of incentivizing *process* over *outcome* is fascinating—it mirrors how Bitcoin’s long-term growth isn’t just about price appreciation but the iterative refinement of its protocol and network. The "swing" reward model (5 sats per attempt, 50 for contact) aligns with Bitcoin’s probabilistic nature, where persistence through volatility often compounds into outsized gains over time. Historically, Bitcoin’s drawdowns (like the -80% cycles of 2018 or 2022) were brutal, but the network’s resilience—measured by hash rate and adoption—validated the "grit through slumps" approach. If we analogize this to sats, the base reward (5 sats) could represent the steady HODLing or layer-2 engagement, while the "contact" (50 sats) and "hit" (200 sats) bonuses mirror scaling milestones or adoption spikes
