Some studies show that women tend to use makeup (and maybe shallow looksmaxxing in general) as a way to assert dominance over other women. And most humans naturally trust authority figures, so these women probably went to the doctors and asked what the doctors can do. And many doctors like money more than they value integrity and so they often don't have any issue with telling these women about all kinds of operations they can do that may not be necessary.
Natural beauty comes from health. Drink water, eat steak, and "Mew" breathe properly through the nose with the proper tongue and body posture. Also mental health. (The lack of which is maybe why these women are so focused on dominating other women.) Sun and exercise for mental health. Also avoid poisons, like SSRIs and seed oils. SSRIs are hard to get off of and seem to have a nasty downward spiral.
Pray for them and take their examples as warnings.

Mediums of exchange:
BTC Lightning: Silver coinage, pocket change cash money. Great for quick daily casual use. Coffee money.
Monero: Small gold coinage for more value in cash. Or like a private bank transfer. Once a day or weekly purchases. Grocery and hardware money. (~4% fees to swap to, about what credit cards charge.)
BTC on chain: Gold bricks and nuggets. Larger store of value and large medium of exchange. Not as useful for daily cash.

Monero units are closer to USD unit, so people probably end up sending ~1 USD values, where sats are much smaller units and people psychologically anchor to 21 or 100 sats, etc with much smaller USD values.

Thanks! It's annoying to have to split it up like that, and there doesn't seem to be an easy option to split the utxo into multiple addresses autonatically like electrum wallet has, so you would have to do it all manually.
And if you haven't done that yet then you are just left stuck sitting around with nothing you can do? It seems you can't prepare unsent transactions in cake wallet.

Gold has been used for a long time and it also has always had an inflation rate based on the mining. Also, the dollar is used by the poors as the cleanest shirt in the dirty laundry pile of Fiat. So inflation doesn't preclude SoV use.
And people aren't entirely logical in their selection based on the least inflation. It's all a delicate balance of many different factors, all implicitly going into the equation.
I guess with BTC we're going to be heading into uncharted SoV deflationary territory. Are there any examples of deflationary stores of value, and how they worked economically? I guess BTC so far is one example.

For the donation example, I think it's only an issue if the the SP addresses are linked to their original public static address with a consolidation, otherwise none of their other silent addresses are linked to anyone. They might be inferred if they end up paying to a particular static address. But the more silent payments are used in the ecosystem then the less traceable it all is.

Where do they get stuck? What are their expectations and what in the app is not making sense to them? Stuff like that.

2026-05-20 21:34:53 CEST

A private key allows you access to a series of derived addresses. You can receive transactions to any of those addresses and the transactions and balance of each address is publicly viewable. Coin Control is basically not combining transactions from different addresses that you control so that they don't get linked together. So when you do a transaction you only use the balance of the fewest/safest addresses to make the transaction to avoid linking the addresses unnecessarily.
I am thinking of a swap as where you send a transaction on one chain (ideally to a kind of escrow) and you get a transaction on another chain, like between BTC and XMR on cake wallet. And then you can swap back again and you probably get a transaction with a different history not linked to you or your previous transactions.
So you could use coin control to swap each small address and then from the other chain consolidate them with another large swap back.
A transaction from each address is going to cost a little bit more for fees. If you are going to do large transactions in the future, then I guess consolidation would save you a little bit of transaction fees if you did the consolidation when on-chain fees were low during the consolidation and the fees were higher during the larger payment later. Otherwise, you could use coin control to keep splitting the addresses into smaller and smaller balances.

Right, so public zaps can be observed and added up to estimate someone's public balance, and this shows us that there are different concepts that we're trying to think about but they are not being clearly distinguished so people end up talking past each other sometimes.
We can distinguish the concepts and think about the design of each concept as a feature.
One concept is social zaps, public records of transactions. This implies a public balance of public transactions (Only an implicit feature for the on-chain zaps. currently basically not implemented for lightning ecash zaps). People are not currently concerned about the public balance of lightning zap transactions. Probably mostly because it's just not currently a feature. And maybe they will be more concerned about public balance in the future, whether its added as a feature or not.
The other concept is private transactions. This is generally what people are trying to build tools for on-chain. Monero has more privatcy built in.
(BTC was the first and simplest implementation of non-custodial VALUE. However that simplest implementation also made the transactions and balances public. But privacy is another important part of money and BTC didn't have a solution for that yet, initially depending on security through obscurity.)
The public-private concepts also interact with the concept of privacy of transactions and balances for the sender and for the receiver. Some senders might want to send anonymously, and some receivers might want to receive anonymously.

Coin control and unlinking with swaps or something would need to happen automatically behind the scenes. With Tor or something by default. It's all theoretically possible, it just takes someone with the time and skills (and/or tokens) to build it and make it work smoothly with UX testing and UI refinements. All the tools are coming together.

Maybe the zap data isn't important, the important part seems to be that the destination address is in a DM so only the sender and recipient know who that address belongs to, and how much was sent.
Also a wallet could have automatic silent payment coin control so large sends have each utxo go to a new different recipient silent address to not consolidate and link addresses unnecessarily. To consolidate there would have to be some other mixer.

AWESOME! Maybe in the "visual/reels" bottom button have top tabs with short video/picture, live streams, shorts only, long video, pictures, etc. Move polls as a top tab in the other bottom button menu where it fits with the other stuff better.
Also I just tested the new user flow and it feels much nicer!
Another idea: It seems these are all type/kind filters. Maybe have the types of things as a list of checkbox/toggle options to enable? Videos, pictures, polls, notes, video shorts, long reads, etc. Like in the feeds menu you could have a feeds filter section.
I guess a configurable feed filter with all the type options could basically be doing the same job as the bottom buttons and new side buttons and broadcast tabs, etc because they are basically pre-configured filters. Also the bottom buttons didn't ever really "feel right", like they are add ons that's don't have a good place to be put, so re-designing the concept could be good. But the bottom buttons are easy for new users and they're probably good for now if the sections are clarified.
Maybe we need the concept of "user configured profiles of feeds and filters." Kind of like how Twitter/X has tabs with the algo feeds + user configured list tabs at the top. But the Twitter lists are difficult to configure in the menus. (and they STILL don't work correctly for configuring follows!)
Currently the filter tabs are all hard coded and default to the global feed. You could add a tab edit option later to edit the tab filters and feeds. Similar to the DM screen tabs, a dot menu at the end of the tabs to open a Tab Editing Menu: List the tabs and each has a button to edit feed/filter + rename it, and a handle for drag to order. A new tab button.
~
NOSTR discovery ideas: maybe expect people to come to NOSTR by being told by someone else, and that person will be their first follow, and that follow can be used for further discovery.
I have often purple-pilled people, they download amethyst, they set up the name of their profile, and then they add me as their first follow, and then we share private messages, but then they don't have anything to follow, so we could have them go to my profile, and my follow list, and make it easier for them to follow everything to start having an engaging feed.
The profile follow list could work the same way as the follow pack menu does, but the tabs would be members, preview, replies. In the members tab (profile and pack) have an option to copy the follows to a new private follow list. Label the new list "From (friend) (date of copy)". The all follows list already includes your lists so the new list will already show up. Your friend is likely to have similar interests and thus boom instantly engaging content for the new user!
Currently it seems unfollowed people from follow lists show in the feed with the default follow badge icon. Remove the follow badge icon and label the unfollowed list posts as "From (list)", like the hashtag follows in amethyst, so the user can add click them and add them to their default follow list. Click the "From (list)" to go to the list and manage it. They can manage/remove the list after get familiar with the app and have their own follow list set up.

Opportunity: How does it appear the attackers chose to target the victim? How was the victim's opsec? Was the victim flaunting their wealth publicly online or offline? Did the attackers see something about the victim on social media? Did the attackers hear something from the victims family or friends?
Means: How did the attackers gain access to the victim and/or their assets? What defenses did the victim have? For example, did the attackers break through the door or did they trick the victim to open the door? Did the victim have decoys or 2fa or multisig?

Of course everyone thinks they are the good guys following their own morals, even the scammers. The difference is the scammers are actually lying but a pro-social psyop is not lying; your custody account really isn't as secure as self custody.

What would it take to psyop NPCs into self custody? How much can NPCs follow instructions? How can instructions be made so simple that NPCs can follow them?

Maybe look at scammers play books and reverse engineer the scam process. Find NPCs common sticking points and how the scammers walk the NPCs through the process. The scammers use fake appeals to authority to make NPCs trust and obey them. If the app speaks authoritatively then most NPCs should listen.

MIC deep state: here, have some missiles, but don't use them on civilians
