=10BABYA=: Huh

? I have been puzzling over this for a while. It might be an end point to stop reading.
tl;dr: I think the real key is to correctly interpret 0=0A=10BABYA=36WOWÐS and z69JZqlJn862D1ndx7oLVEMmVOlP1zewEeUCrsI7Roahzpeny7P .

I'm still not quite sure what to use it on, but I'm pretty sure the 0=0A=10BABYA=36 is a character mapping.
0=0
A=10
BabyA=36. Morse code has no lowercase, so she called the lowercase 'a' BabyA.

~~OH. It's a description of a base58 character mapping. These are the valid base58 characters. 0 isn't in it, 10 is 10, and a is 36:~~

edit: Upon closer inspection, I made a transcription error and base62 is far more likely. I agree with pongo below: 0=0, A=10, a=36
