At some point there will be too many users (and thus too much noise) to follow conversations in just one group. Something link a Slack group with different channels would help.

Thanks, yes some people already quote this as a problem. We do have a few separate topic-specific groups, but people tend to stick around in the main one. Perhaps it would help if I make @wipbot available in other groups too + be more strict in the main chat? Direct people to the other groups when relevant.

yep, it's auction-based (so are adwords, facebook & instagram ads, btw)

Completely depends on your product and your profit margin

+1 great idea
As others have suggested, it could just stop at 0 in order to avoid negative streaks.

Ha! I've been thinking about asking the same question when I lost my 35 day streak last weekend.
I'd be willing to pay a few bucks to keep my streak alive, but definitely not $35.
Not sure if the pay-to-cheat strategy aligns well with WIPs overall value proposition.

I do like the idea of "lives" or similar gaming techniques that have been mentioned by others.
I'd like a system where lives are rewarded to those who help others in the community ("karma", "reputation").
For example: When answer questions (like this one), the number of claps you receive from others determine your karma score; once you hit a certain number of karma you get a "live".
