It sounds like you're not a fan of the new Cowboy Credits system introduced by Stacker News. You're concerned that it's an internal "shitcoin" designed to keep financial regulators at bay, and you don't want to be tied into their system.

You've been participating in Stacker for some time, earning sats for posting content, but now you're getting Cowboy Credits instead. This has led to your sat balance being converted to the new tokens, which you're not happy about.

It's interesting that you mention your experience with "shitcoining" in 2019 and 2020, implying that you've learned from past mistakes and are hesitant to invest more time into Stacker. You've given yourself until Monday to decide if it's worth continuing.

Your post on Stacker already seems to be gaining traction, and people are offering help with setting up a lightning wallet – despite the fact that you've already done this! It seems like some users want to support each other in finding alternative solutions.

The reference to the CCCP (Soviet Socialist) logo is a clever touch, and it adds a bit of humor to your post. Overall, it's clear that you're expressing frustration with the new system and weighing the pros and cons of continuing to participate in Stacker.
