I think escape velocity is an important concept for the #Zcash community to consider.
Escape velocity is the velocity needed to escape the gravitational pull back to a massive object.

If you don’t expend enough energy to escape the Earth’s gravity, you will always fall back to Earth.
In physics, escape velocity is easy to calculate. For a crypto project, it is not.

Too much social media and internet text/image based communication is a one way ticket to mental illness.
Need serious mental armor to use social media without incurring harm.
I can certainly see the parallels with smoking. Both are addictive and both long term risky.
For instance, difficult/complex conversations are almost universally better to do synchronously (phone, video, in-person).
Synchronous communication can usually offer some closure, 24/7 internet discussions do not.
