Topic: Hypothetical crypto hypnosis (Read 155 times)

Movies? Well, I don't. I think books are a far better at that. When I think of movies, I think of escapism, mindless entertainment, something to pass the time on a rainy day or when you have nothing else to do. Books are usually more in-depth, and they're often written by someone who knows what they're talking about. For example, many well-known science fiction writers, such as Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke were also scientists, and they used their knowledge to predict what might happen in the future.


Well, I still don't think that's how hypnosis or hypnotherapy works, but then again, I don't have a PhD in psychology, so I could be wrong.

Your hypothetical thinking is very possible; From what I know, hypnosis can be done in different manners and your consent is not always needed. It is also possible that if you are hypnotized and told to forget about the incident totally by the hypnotizer, you will most likely not have a knowledge of whatever you did. The best thing is just to hope and pray for you not to cross lanes with people who use their hypnotic skills for criminality, so we don't become their victims.

Hypnotized? I think not. I don't believe fully in the concept and for it to work, it needs the right environment and mood, which you cannot have with a total stranger or an unwilling person.

Risks which are related to this include;
• Getting an overdose of drugs which can make one delirious and prone to divulge personal information when persuaded,
• Getting kidnapped and threatened to reveal the details of your wallet or to send them to a different wallet. Here, plausible deniability would help a lot.

Not everyone is susceptible to hypnosis. Tapping into one’s subconscious isn’t an easy thing to do, monks fast and sit in silence for weeks just to learn the art to strengthening the mind, and to understand the true nature of oneself. As far as I know, one has to allow the hypnotist or hypnotherapist before the hypnosis can be carried out, I have seen this in magic shows and movies, frankly I don’t believe in the science or even regard it as a science. It is a magic trick that works on people who desperately need to believe in it.

Lol... funny you would say that about the movies. I agree with you on the fictitious nature of movies but, you'll also agree with me that fiction or not, movies are some of the ways new tech or developments in our world are developed or imagined.

From the comment you've made above, I could deduct that, we establish the fact that hypnosis is by far real but, it works only when you get to believe. That's clear enough for me and hopeful it goes both ways.

Now the thing is, am not saying someone would just jump you or something although, I don't doubt it's possibility but,
Isn't it possible that some sick individual, needing therapy could subject himself to some therapy by hypnosis with a whole different intention  at heart and then, without any suspicion during the process, the administrator digresses to fraud?
That's just one way I've chosen to think of it.

You should already know this that people can be talked into doing financial transactions they don't intend to, no I don't even mean a girlfriend talking the boyfriend over some financial transactions or the wife doing that to the husband but for certain times some partners in relationship can classify such spending as being hypnotized when they can't give account of how they have suddenly become spendthrift lol. Seriously what you are saying is very possible and in Nigeria talking about this act, I have heard some stories where people came to their homes to take out valuable properties including electrical gadgets to give to strangers at the stranger's instruction waiting for them in a certain place. Some stories in same light involves emptying their bank account to strangers while some of these incidents were intercepted by neighbors when they see you could be acting not in your volition, so this is possible.


I suspect this could be a green area for crypto scammers but it is also related to wallet hacking because the aim is to have hold of the wallet password or phrases by whatever means to displace owner. The ground information is we have to be cautious and careful when dealing with people regarding our finance both fiat and crypto.

I am convinced that people who know how to influence the human psyche, and this is exactly what I had in mind, can control a person and make him do this or that action. But I will make an amendment: there are people who do not succumb to this. Here, I agree with FatFork: it all depends on the person's propensity for the suggestion.

Methods such as Erickson's hypnosis are a set of several tools for gaining trust from a person, having a confidential conversation, and, as a result, gaining their submission, provided that, in their subconscious, the person has already accepted what was discussed for himself. The person will perform actions automatically, as he will be in a state of trance. An example of such a trance is when we experience regularly thinking about something while being distracted from everything that is happening, and then "waking up" and returning to reality.

There are people who get such a suggestion without any education. If you are familiar with gypsy hypnosis, then these people have strange abilities. Therefore, when observing the behavior of strangers diligently trying to become "useful" to you, you should always be on the alert and understand that you can be manipulated.

I haven't read any of the books you referenced but, from what you've stated here, the act of Hypnosis is defined by the methods and can't be classified as being manipulative as, this is cognitive of scammers or fraudsters. Is that it? Or am a little off still.

With reference to the part of your quote that I italised, does that concur that, my hypothesis is possible and could happen?

Could this this classified as hypnosis too?
I have met and heard the tales of two victims of such schemes before and yes, its always subject to physical belongings and money in each case.

It's usually some carefully planned work in a remote area where the victim is targeted by a displaced person who tries to engage his or her victim in a conversation. Normally asking for directives to some place, proceeds to haven't came with some goods from abroad and offers a proposal, then come along some random transport agent and the next you know, your complying to there every suggestion. You might be aware of what's going on but, you find it difficult to back off. They claim to have used some vudu charms on you and so, you don't get to tell or risk your life and shits like that until, the scheme is complete or your awoken to the reality of what is going on by a friend or family relative who observes your discomfort or finds your behaviour to be abnormal as these guys go as far as sending you home to get stuffs.

Do we think this could apply in robbing users of there privacy/security in cryptos..., really!

I had to read many words before I finally understood what you were saying. You might want to start with that next time. 

It's not just that hypnosis is rare, it's only supposed to work on a very small percentage of individuals. The basic idea is that you believe it will work, and therefore it does. So, it's pretty clear that hypnosis is not something that you should worry about. So the next time you see a movie, don't believe everything you see. A lot of it is just a work of fiction! 

If people have no money or vices like drugs, there is no such thing as low profile or high profile even security camera's, lots of news and videos taken from cctv's this people just don't care if you see them or not on camera or TV, what is important to them is money, regarding hypnosis my parents were almost a victim of this, they came to our home, asking for gadgets and Airconditioned to be pull-out and they say i told them, but they saw me arriving and the group just left immediately, it happens in our area where they were casually walk in to your home, and everyone follow what they said, hypnosis is true.

If by Hypnosis you mean mind control, then it's just a myth, it doesn't work like that. You can't be hypnotized if you don't want to be hypnotized and is not making effort for it to happen. All those stories about hypnotizers robbing people are just excuses of people who fell victims of a scam.

What you should be worried is kidnapping or torture or home invasion. So keep a low profile and have some home security, like good locks, an alarm system, a weapon, etc.

In my country people are being hypnotized, and the story is this, they meet people out of nowhere then talk to them, then suddenly they are being controlled to withdraw money , even over the counter withdrawals, or pull-out jewelry at home, sometimes they were hypnotized via phone call then bring everything to a meeting place
after what happen they were left to a certain place, without remembering anything, so yes this is possible, if in any case they know you have a crypto portfolio, but in all the cases in my country, they just get the physical valuables, maybe in the future if they found out about this crypto currency they will also try to get their hands on this, take note they were very organized and work as a group.

What if you keep a random password from some software and you don't even remember it?
Or even if you set it yourself, you don't remember it just because maybe it's too long or too hard (strong) to remember?
What can hypnosis do in such cases?
And why would someone simply try to hack an account here when he/she can simply ask the person about his wallets and sweep away all his crypto?


Exactly, if you don't do your private things in front of public or anyone sitting near you, there'll be least chances that they'll know what you're doing. Some people are so stupid they flaunt about their crypto holdings and then come up with complaints that they got their money stolen.

Hackers can be your family members, friends or someone around you at coffee stores, restaurants or real strangers who don't know you in person.

If you don't use Twitter, Facebook, social platforms which have AI algorithms to detect what you are searching and interested in then suggesting you relevant resources, you will be less exposed to phishing sites.

If you don't tell others about what you are doing, you will have less bad eyes that try to steal your account information and money.

If you know what hypnosis is, then you should understand that you can hypnotize a person with certain actions. There are many varieties of hypnosis. Manipulation is the main feature of scammers. Perhaps they do not act with a uniformly moving pendulum in front of their eyes, capable of hypnotizing a person, but act on the human psyche, knowing all sorts of tricks that ultimately lead to the goal of fraud. Read what NLP is. Those who master it perfectly can influence the person who gives out seed phrases.
There are so many good books out there that can explain the effect various hypnosis techniques have on the masses. For example, in the book of Robert Cialdini "Psychology of influence", some of the manipulation methods that we see every day but do not perceive as hypnosis are well described.
It is not for nothing that some religions call for always controlling oneself and being at the moment in order to be here and now.

DRIVE AND DRIVES
Some time ago I read a comment on some phishing or hack attempts on The Pharmacist's account and took note of it. It got me thinking, how secure could one really get in a crypto society. Let it be known that there will always be vices and people who make the world seems bad and uncomfortable for others to live in. The Internet has made the world look small but as nucleated as it jas become, people have taken the long arms of the net, to stretch it in the far corner and take from a people all that could have added value to there life and make it worth living for. Cursing chaos for a people and living most with no reason to live.

I wonder how they manage to live with that! How they don't think what time they've taken off such persons life in investment and property, how they don't play the being in there shoes game. The pains of out neighbours (any one who feels the impact of your actions even globally) got to matter.

HYPNOSIS CRYPTO
A strange topic right? Well, even I don't know how possible this could be. It's just a thought that played in my mind and I'll like to share. I don't even know how it is possible. So here is what prompted this.


I saw this and it got me thinking of security. I would say, our security is more better now because, most people are still in the dark ages of cryptocurrency, at least in my locality which is relative globally. What happens when people understands and starts attaching values?

It's normal for we humans to have issues and sort out the solution by some means. One of those is Hypnosis.

HYPNOSIS could be seen as a state of sleep usually induced by some individual whose directives you follow to solve your issues with little or no objection.

There are a number of things you don't do when your unstable, when your drunk, when your asleep or when in transit like Hypnosis. I've never been hypnotised but from the movies I've seen, your likely not in control and seems to follow the directives of the one whom is doing the Hypnosis.
This got me thinking, could one be hypnotised to do some financial transactions? Or
Maybe, have there keys or seed phrases exposed?
Account passwords and more.

Just some hypothetical thinking...
I will like us to discuss the possibility of this if it is possible at all.
