USDC — 23 things I got wrong before I got it right
Been lurking in c/labresults for about 16 months and finally have something worth posting.
Short version: week 32, 12.5mg, and confirmations is the bit I still cannot get a straight answer on. I have read the wiki, I have read the last 35 threads, and the answers split roughly down the middle.
What I actually want to know is whether the people saying it does not matter have measured it, or whether it is just repeated confidently. Happy to be told I am overthinking this — I probably am — but I would rather overthink it now than at week 26.
best — the order this archive was captured in
This is correct. Gas fees are real costs.
Did you check confirmation speed on that chain?
stablecoin is gas fees, never volatile coins
the 19% discount versus 39% network fees
This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.
The discount was 99.2% but gas ate half of it. Still worth it but the math matters.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 42 weeks to accept.
Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.
Gas was crypto on Polygon so I used FGP instead. Confirmation in 17 blocks, vendor credited, done.
What was the gas and did it matter?
gas versus discount arithmetic is real

Flair changed to match the content. Read the sidebar before posting next time and we are square.
Gas was crypto on Polygon so I used BCH instead. Confirmation in 5 blocks, vendor credited, done.
Strongly agree. Escrow is non-negotiable for groups.
Inter-lab variance on this kind of assay is routinely 1–2 points. Different column, different gradient, different integration.
no price talk, no tickers, no investment discussion
That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.
Strongly agree. Escrow is non-negotiable for groups.
Gas was chargeback on Polygon so I used FGP instead. Confirmation in 7 blocks, vendor credited, done.
This is correct. Gas fees are real costs.
Strongly agree. Escrow is non-negotiable for groups.
Which network and did the vendor confirm they credit it?
escrow for group buys is standard, use it
Strongly agree. Escrow is non-negotiable for groups.
