Everyone has instant access to a casino, opium den and brothel on their phones, and we wonder why people are mentally ill and the society is more unstable

a related question i keep fumbling upon over 8 years of building in crypto - is crypto a reflection of society or an influence on society? 

i definitely know where we're at today

crypto is a reflection of society today. bitcoin is prob the only exception.

open social, censorship resistance, verifiable compute are the lofty promises which may help crypto shape society. 

its all a constant yin and yang of hopium and copium

Where are we at today?

My take is it that crypto is reflexive -- it amplifies whatever is happening because that's what money does
