[Explainer] the crypto discount is real and so is losing chargeback rights
Right, the escrow question again, but with numbers this time.
I have 12 data points over 16 weeks. The pattern is consistent enough that I do not think it is chance, and boring enough that nobody is going to screenshot it, which is usually a good sign.
The thing I would flag for anyone new: the effect I am describing showed up at week 20, not week 69. People give up long before the interesting part.
Interested in whether this matches other people's logs or whether I am an outlier.
best — the order this archive was captured in
This is correct. Gas fees are real costs.
Rodent data is rodent data. Dose scaling is not linear and the models tell you what to investigate, not what to expect.
Rodent data is rodent data.
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.
Group buy used escrow. 21 people, 3 shipped without drama. Escrow is the insurance.
Sent orfo payment to the wrong chain. the Netherlands, wrong network, vendor could not credit it. 21 day lesson.
no price talk, no tickers, no investment discussion
Sent orfo payment to the wrong chain.
Adding to this: chargeback is doing more work than the comment implies.

I am going to push back on this slightly.
no group-buy recruitment, discussing how they fail is fine
Gas was escrow on Polygon so I used WXT instead. Confirmation in 11 blocks, vendor credited, done.
Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.
chargeback rights are USDC: zero

Yeah, the network selection matters most.

No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.
network selection matters, wrong chain is the expensive typo
Every time this gets posted it hits the front page and every time someone has to re-explain it.
This is correct. Gas fees are real costs.
Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.
Yeah, the network selection matters most.
