Lottery, but at a larger, larger scale. In SE Eastern countries and India, there's something better than this bullshit and they're unified QR payment systems, central bank's interbank transfer system, and virtual accounts. This investment is more a lottery than a real investment
Probably born because of complex electronic payment rules in the West + probably greed. In Indonesia, you can transfer your money easily without private companies as middlemen like Paypal and the central bank acts as the middleman and it's cheap (only about $0,16 for small to moderate transactions and about $0,43 for RTGS / larger transactions). A Canadian Youtuber who makes Indonesian content, Sacha Stevenson, said that in Canada, you need to make an appointment, which is time-consuming, to transfer money to your family otherwise it's considered a suspicious transaction, while in Indonesia you don't
In the West, electronic payment methods are proprietary and there's no unified payment system (not referring to Indian's UPI, but in general)

The payment QR code: BCA (An Indonesian Bank)
Me: *Opens Gojek and pay with this app cos QRIS is unified* (QRIS, pronounced Kris or colloquially Kyu-ris, is the name for Indonesian's unified payment QR standard)
The app: *proceed to payment screen and pay*
Me: "See, Indonesia and SE Asian countries have something better than cryptocurrency"
------
Me: *transfers money to my other account in another bank*
The banking app: *Choose BI-FAST (2.5K IDR) or BI-RTGS (6.5 K IDR)*
Me: "No need a private company middleman! Things like Paypal and Skrill are no use in Indonesia unless for overseas transactions"
Each payment method has different use cases and suits for different types of transactions. Non-bank payment methods (can be filled/topped-up with bank, ride-hailing apps drivers, and convenience store chains) and QR codes are suitable for daily transactions like buying snacks and groceries; bank transfers are for family, company, and individual people money transfers; virtual account is suitable for buying something priced higher than 10,000K IDR, must be on the same bank and it's automated. Both banks and non-banks are usually have the unified QR code payment method, and for Bank Jago, the QR payment is tied to GoPay (Gojek)

Get the Cryptocurrency mug.Typical Youtuber impersonators that you'll see in famous tech Youtubers and any famous Youtubers related to tech (example: Max Tech, MKBHD, etc). But fortunately, Google made the Youtubers' profile pictures visible before you open the replies if they replied directly, so you can see if they're actually replying to you instead of the impersonators

Get the Telegram me ๐ mug.The P's are capitalized to tell that they're Cyrillic/Greek R's. An algospeak for "furry". Coincides with the word "puppy", making it sounds cute
Some subreddit removed my post for saying "furry" even though I'm not a furry (but I love the art) just because I want to express my annoyance about realistic humans but cartoony animals art styles that looks like TAWOG but the logic doesn't work like TAWOG. I checked whether I was shadowbanned or not on r/shadowban and I say "fuPPy" to prevent deletion from automoderators

Get the fuPPy mug.When there's an obvious hidden gem shows up in front of a content creator, often off-topic, they neglected it, act like nothing happened, and never reviews about it. They may hide, delete, or ignore your comment if you ask for it
When something is so interesting but nobody reviews about that, not even someone with a good attention to details knows or wants to review about it

"I'd seen Dancing Bacon bought an ice cream or something on a vending machine in Taiwan (video uploaded around 2020) and there was a Sumikko Gurashi machine (may contain gacha eggs or random toys) next to the machine they used and it looks so catchy, but sadly, they won't try that machine, although their topic is mostly about foods, sometimes inside vending machines, and rarely about household gadgets. Such a neglected gem and nobody have uploaded a video about it, and there's no search results for that thing"
"Sega produces toy laptops that none like other toy laptops, which are lame and just like toy phones that only makes sounds and having a mock-up screen. Available in Sumikko Gurashi (San-X license) and Dinosaur version. Their toy laptops runs an OS that boot fast like old gaming consoles, capable of using keyboard and mouse, and has tens of games. Unfortunately, these are neglected gems since no tech reviewers have reviewed these laptops and analyze the components. I cannot express my amazement fully since most or all the videos about it are comments disabled"

Get the neglected gem mug.or kawaii signature. A Japanese term for signatures with cute elements on them, usually having complex analogies of letters and shapes (usually animals). Popular in VTubers (mostly Japanese-only) and Kpop communities, both fans and the music band members
Used colloquially in Japan (they use hanko in formal context), but sometimes used as formal signatures outside Japan

There are some or a few people who makes kawaii sign commissions if you search for "kawaii sign" in Katakana letters and they all, the examples, looks catchy. I discovered it from a random VTuber/streamer in my Twitter recommended accounts and she did retweeted or tweet about who made her kawaii sign

Get the kawaii sign mug.Pronounced "rรซrรซnggan"/"๋ฅด๋ฆ๊ฐ"/"reureunggan" (รซ is schwa)
Basically a Javanese decorative text bracket for titles. There are variations of this bracket, it can be anything including eagles, but the peacock tail one being the most popular and the default style for most Javanese fonts
Usually used for aesthetic letterings

If you search cute art on Pinterest, you may encounter some usernames with rerenggan, which looks like this:

Get the Rerenggan mug.An inconsistency in an art style that is not considered to have a different logic, and is treated as if it has the same art style as the other parts of an artwork. Usually happens when the artist loves cute art but for some reason, they're forced to draw realistically, usually the humans (usually because the community expects someone to draw realistically instead of simple art styles, or having afraid of being ashamed just because they draw cartoony, or for art / art portfolio showcase, or a combination of these)
TAWOG logic: having different art styles and each art style works consistently in a 3D, realistic world (sometimes pre-rendered realistic world backgrounds), with their characteristics. This can also apply when a cartoon shows a strong expression that the face becomes realistic for a short time or a real photo
TAWOG logic but pseudo: the animals are cartoony and the humans are realistic, but they seem as if both are realistic and have no differences in logic. Only we the audience can see them having different art styles. An exception when the humans came from games/cartoons/etc where they're not realistically drawn and they're put in artwork with this kind of art style, collab/fanart human characters are seen as if they're drawn in the artwork, both seen by themselves in that world and by the audience
Without TAWOG logic: all characters see each other as realistic or as if they're drawn, regardless of their art style unless they are made aware of their art style

I write this definition because for some reason, I'm annoyed by pseudo-TAWOG art styles. Nobody understood what I mean when I wrote my opinion on r/unpopularopinion. This is subjective, especially about art preferences, since beauty standards are different for each person
Usually, pseudo-TAWOG art styles have non-chibi anime-styled humans or Western-comic-styled humans. They're so many examples if you explore cute artworks but I cannot tell you which artists since I don't want them to feel offended (but I give you a clue for an example artist: the one who has a famous orange guy emoji, usually used in memes and Discord. I love this emoji but unfortunately, the artist doesn't draw cartoony humans frequently and prefers realistic humans in her drawings. Her old handle has a cartoony knight profile picture made by herself and the handle was knight-related). Use Pinterest and hashtags (Twitter and Instagram) to discover new artists and use Yandex for identifying the OP (Baidu if the artists are Mainland Chinese)
