 @Lana these are great for trophies we award people, but would need to think about other types of achievements people can unlock. for example, we can gamify other things for the community. 
 Start identifying personas in your ideal scenarios. I can currently see these options:  
  
\- **Writer** (lot of stories)  
\- **Curious** (lot of questions)  
\- **Doer** (lot of projects)  
\- **Critic** (lot of comments)  
\- **Supporter** (lot of zaps)  
\- **Solver** (lot of answers - need to find a way to vote/zap comments too, so the most zapped = the most useful)  
  
just ideas 
 These are some great suggestions! 
 Re: Nostr authentication with Login with Nostr

Our version of login works a bit different from what Geyser does. They want to ensure that the user has a Nostr extension, so they can sign the nostr notes. This is great for people who don't want BOLT.FUN to have access to their private keys. Which is ideal!  
  
We on the other hand have custodial nostr (keys stored on behalf of users, which is inline with our goal of helping onboard people who are not familiar with all this new tech). Our Nostr Sign In though works just like our email sign-in. You receive a DM to your account which you'd check via Damus, or some other mobile Nostr app. Long story short, our Nostr Sign-in doesn't give us the same ability as Geyser, but we do have keys that we can sign the badges with. 
 What do you mean by building Badges specifically? 
 By building badges, I wanted to encapsulate the process of design and development/implementation
