Display Tips on Leaderboard

[tra38]

It appears that the leaderboard/profile part of the site only displays "bounties" that individuals fulfilled. For example, my profile shows that I worked on a single bounty.

However, tips have been used frequently on gitcoin.co as well, for many reasons, such as:

• To divide up a large bounty across a "team" of programmers
• To incentivize work for lower-priority issues that don't require a formal bounty
• To handle scenarios where the work has been completed but the bounty has already expired

Displaying both bounties and tips will help give users a better idea of the "reputation" of the individual - if you know how many tips a person has received/given and how many bounties a person created/fulfilled, then you have more data points that will help you better understand the person. In some ways, it would be an improvement on my original proposal for "reputation" where I proposed keeping track of fulfilled bounties.

I am not sure how the leaderboard calculate monetary stats by the way. At the time of posting, the leaderboard said that I made $112.28, but the only bounty that I worked on according to my profile was for 0.07 ETH ($59.32). So it might be possible that some additional data may already be collected, and it may be only a matter of showing this additional data to the user when they view the profile.

@tra38 a big 👍 from me on this idea, I think including tips better shows the whole picture

This is a really really good idea..

I wonder if its appropriate to display who the tip was from or not and for how much.. Is there an expectation of privacy associated with tipping?

I think it would be best to have it be opt-in for both tipper and tippee
