Melanopsin is a non-visual photoreceptor that is the source of the blue light hazard. Melanin is a biologic semiconductor that absorbs all frequencies of electromagnetic radiation. Melatonin is the time crystal that mitochondria make to tell time. If you eat like a vegan you're probably going to wind up like Steve Jobs, dead at 50 or 60 years old
Steve: "What's the difference between melanopsin, melatonin, and melanin?"
Dr. Jack Kruse: "OK, that's an easy one. You're probably letting me off the hook easy."
"Melanopsin is a non-visual photoreceptor that we inherited from our ancestors. Our ancestors were fishes and amphibians. It is a blue light detector. It operates most 435 to 465. It's the source of the blue light hazard. It's the reason why non-native EMF, blue light is the single biggest problem for humans. It's found in our fat, it's found in our blood vessels, it's found almost in every neuron of our body, so it's a huge issue.
"Melanin is a biologic semiconductor that is made from a gene in mammals. The gene is called POMC, that stands for proopiomelanocortin. That gets cleaved to six different peptides. One of those peptides is called α MSH. α MSH is what creates melanin. Melanin comes in three forms predominantly in humans, eumelanin, pheomelanin, and neuromelanin, neuromelanin being the darkest of all. It absorbs all frequencies of electromagnetic radiation that any star would emit. And pheomelanin and eumelanin just have different atoms that are doped on it. They still do different things, but they operate differently in different environments that are found on earth. […]
"Melatonin is an aromatic chemical that's made from the aromatic amino acid tryptophan. Tryptophan absorbs 200 to 400 nm light. It excites π electrons. It's created by your mitochondria. Your mitochondria is a time machine just like bitcoin is. Melatonin is the time crystal that mitochondria make to tell time. […] When you put blue light on, it lowers your melatonin level, and it fucks up your hash rate, it fucks up your difficulty adjustment. And guess what happens? The value of your life goes down. And you feel that in less time. You become Steve Jobs. How is that for some quantum entanglement?"
Steve: "Yeah, and he tried to become a fruitarian too."
Dr. Jack Kruse: "[…] So there's a lesson there for bitcoiners."
Steve: "Yes? And what's the lesson?"
Dr. Jack Kruse: "The lesson is if you eat like a vegan and you own bitcoin, you're probably going to wind up like Steve Jobs, dead at 50 or 60 years old and never be able to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Same thing is true with people who abuse technology. Most, unfortunately, bitcoin maxis are tech abusers, which is part of the reason my message needs to get out to them. Most maxis tend to be millennials that hate boomers. The problem is, this is the one fucking boomer you better listen to because I understand bitcoin and your biology better than you do. I'm trying to reserve time for you. Nothing is a bigger epic fail to own a shit ton of bitcoin and be dead at 50 years old."
