🚨STUDY: MAGIC MUSHROOM COMPOUND "RESETS" BRAIN
Psilocybin, the hallucinogenic compound in magic mushrooms, temporarily resets entire brain networks controlling time and self-perception, according to a new Nature study.
Researchers observed "massive changes" in seven volunteers' brains, with some patterns resembling entirely different individuals.
Most changes lasted hours, but one brain link remained disrupted for weeks.
The default mode network, active during daydreaming, became desynchronized during drug effects.
Interestingly, "grounding" techniques used in psychedelic therapy reduced psilocybin's brain impact.
This research could explain psilocybin's potential therapeutic effects on depression and PTSD.
While not proving causation, it offers crucial clues for developing mental health treatments.
The study's innovative approach, repeatedly imaging fewer subjects, provided unprecedented insight into psilocybin's whole-brain impact.
Researchers hope to extend this work to individuals with conditions like depression.

I’ve long believed the base tx fee for the #XRPLedger is low based on the amount of overhead required to process & store transactions.
Recent tx volume highlights this more.
Thus, effective now, the Cabbit Tech validator is voting to increase the base fee from 10 to 200 drops.
A win in the U.S. for crypto! 🥂
The Catawba Digital Economic Zone, backed by South Carolina's tribal Indian nation, just passed new crypto
regulations.
They aim to create "legal clarity" for crypto.
The regulations define digital assets (crypto and NFT's) as "intangible property" or personal property that don't exist physically.
This zone will eventually allow crypto firms to remotely incorporate under its laws.
@CoinDesk reviewed the regulations and found that "a digital asset could be a digital consumer asset brought for consumptive purposes. A virtual currency can be used as a unit of account, means of exchange or store of value that isn't legal tender in the U.S."
💥💥A digital security can't be a virtual currency or digital consumer asset."
