If sent without the `--tip` parameter, this is considered a support that can be redeemed by the person who made it at any time (think of it as a self tip, but helping someone else's content).
These credits are automatically stored as associated with the content owners' claim, which helps the claim perform better in search results, top, and [trending calculations](https://lbry.com/faq/trending).
