Hi everyone, I'm putting together a framework and I want to do it collaboratively with the community and ask for your input. The idea is to zoom out and map the core use cases - the real human needs behind why people use bitcoin or would use bitcoin. Bitcoin use case framework - Draft: 1. Simple daily money I am a non-native English speaker, I am not familiar with this technology, I hesitate to trust it, I want the simplest way to use this digital money. (super super super simple, my 12 year old can use it) 2. Serious security & privacy I have used bitcoin wallets for a few years now, I am looking for the highest level of security and privacy 3. Financial survival I want to use bitcoin because I have no bank account or my bank account has been frozen. 4. Generational wealth I want to save for the future of my family. 5. Shared treasury We as multiple people want to control the wallet. (like funding organizations, families, or community treasuries) I'd love your input: - Do these use cases reflect what you see? - What are we missing? - How would you frame this differently? Here are the next steps in mind after we have reached consensus with this step: 1. What does the most basic user journey look like under each user story? 2. What technology is needed under each user story? 3. Map out the already existing products in the ecosystem, ask the question under which of these categories do they fit? 4. What is missing in them and if added would greatly improve the use case for that particular story?

Just downloaded Bitchat. The installation process was pretty smooth. Intuitively double clicked the title and saw this 👌👌👌 Triple image click title to automatically remove all messages 👌👌 This would be super super useful especially for Human Rights Defenders.

AI + UX Research Walkthrough -> For Bitcoiners learning to run local AI models We're running local AI models because the public AI models are not necessarily safe to sift through our data. A lot of Bitcoiners are very privacy focused, so it's very important to run local models so that the data we're sharing is not available to the public. Here are the steps I go through to create high-quality output analysis of data using AI: image --- ### 1. Prepare the Raw Data Preparing the data might sound overly complicated, but it's not. The problem AI has is recognizing that you've done, for example, 12 interviews. It might only pick three of those interviews. You need to create a document and label every single interview. Copy and paste every single interview transcript and write person one, person two, person three, person four, and so on. ### 2. Provide Context to the AI Model You're going to be providing context to the AI model. Here you can use a public AI to create the prompt - this is all the preparation phase. You're not processing the data yet. What I usually do is take my UX research plan and pop it into the AI model. I give the AI model context in terms of what I'm about to be processing. Now it has context. It knows the reason, the goals, the visions. ### 2. Prepare the Prompt I say to the AI model: "Use the data that I've given you, and I want you to prepare a prompt based on the goals and vision of the UX research sprint that I've done." Then it's going to prepare a prompt. That's the prompt you're going to use, and you're going to take that prompt into the local AI model running on your PC. ### 3. Process Data in Biteable Pieces You can do it in two ways: Take the prompt, put it in, attach the PDF, and click run, Process the data in bite-sized chunks - use half of the prompt first with all the data, then use half of the prompt again for the second half, The local AI models become less intelligent the further down the chat you go because they use up the tokens. So I tend to put the prompt in the beginning and all of the data in the beginning. Something really crucial: Say "I want you to use all of the data that I've provided. I want you to use person one, person two, person three, person four, and so on." If you don't do this, the AI model will not be smart enough to pick up on the fact that it needs to use all of the data points you provided. In my experience, it will only use three of the data points. That's a quick summary----> Any questions shoot them this way! And very happy to learn from others who are also using AI to process UX Research ** this post was created by using an AI voice tool and the summarizing feature. Simply recorded the audio notes, had AI transcribe and summarize the notes using my own language as the core foundation.

Nostr developers! 🌟 We're diving deep into something new ➡️ Understanding how activists communicate and how Nostr can help them. Why? Because building better tools starts with really getting how people use them. Here's the scoop: We've been researching communication patterns in activists and have uncovered five distinct areas. But we know there's more to this story, and that's exactly why we need your help. We're hosting an online workshop to: 1. Explore these communication patterns in detail 2. Identify what we might be missing 📅 Date: February 25th ⏰ Time: 11:00am ET (17:00 CET) Whether you're a seasoned Nostr developer or just getting started, your perspective would be incredibly valuable. Want in? Just drop me a message and I'll shoot over a meeting invite. 🚀

The guys over at the Connect the World podcast really know how to put together a relaxed and unique interview. We chatted about the future of UX design, UX solutions for activists as well as how to bridge the gap between bringing user stories closer to the development process of Open Source bitcoin products. Great chat! image @Edward Hollander @Stef⚡️🌍 @Ramon
