Payment mechanics and their privacy properties: why suppliers ask for stablecoin transfers, what an on-chain transfer reveals, confirmation delays, and the consumer protection you give up when a chargeback is impossible.
For reference: an escrowed payment · Japan. I want to decide this in advance so that I am not deciding it under pressure later. Assume I will follow the plan I write…

What I am working with: a two-person split · an escrowed payment. I want a method I can write down and repeat, not a rule of thumb. I would rather over-engineer this…
I have kept every message, invoice and document, which I gather is the useful habit. I can find plenty of assertions about this and almost no reasoning, which is…

Two things I have been told confidently and suspect are both wrong. First, that suppliers ask for crypto "because it is untraceable". That cannot be right for a…
I have kept every message, invoice and document, which I gather is the useful habit. I have read the obvious sources and they disagree with each other, so I would…
The thing that stops me going ahead is not the price, it is that I would be sending money with no recourse whatsoever. With a card I have a dispute right; if nothing…
Stated plainly: an on-chain payment · Spain. I would like to set this up properly once, rather than adjust it repeatedly. My budget is real but not tight, and my…
