23 ↗	(On Diff #46092)	we did use this approach (pad with leading 00s) earlier for cashtab msg -- but, imo it is better to go with trailing zeros if you really want a 3-char code (this is what Paybutton did for PAY). `soc`? it's unique but seems like could do better. it's not really clear that this is short for `social`. is it connected to the name of the app? just some thoughts, if you really want `00736f63`, no real blocker, it's possible.

Personally I think MSG1 makes more sense, but up to yall
