    Great analysis It's like he forgot that one of the major "features" of cryptocurrency is a quality that proliferates the sphere with scammers. I say this as someone with a very opt…

    I mean first off that is only in comparison to a dosage schedule of the reverse amount. I'm just arguing that it would make more sense to start at 80-110-140-170 etc because below …

    75-125 is an actual trip. Anything less than that you're not going to get the full psychedelic experience. We can debate the effects of microdosing, but 100-150ug has been a gold s…

    It doesn't, exchange data is heavily manipulated in order to game certain resources like coinmarketcap, coingecko etc. I would agree tether is more but nowhere close to as describe…

    I mean I feel like "need" is a bad choice, when the point is that it can be a lot better. I didn't need Venmo to send money to friends, but it is quite clearly better than pre-exis…
