Like it or not, the US is still the most important crypto market in the world, and if you're a professional operating in this industry you need to be paying serious attention to what's happening there. So to help you do that, Antonio and I invited two experts from the US to help us synthesize what's going on with these SEC lawsuits and understand how observers in markets like Brazil should be interpreting these events. Lewis Cohen is an honorary Brazilian through marriage and is the co-founder of DLx Law. He's long been one of the leading voices at the intersection of crypto and securities law in the US, and he recently co-authored the 180 page treatise The Ineluctable Modality of Securities Law: Why Fungible Crypto Assets Are not Securities. Follow him on Twitter at @NYcryptolawyer Nikhilesh De is a former colleague of mine at CoinDesk, where he overseas all of the outlet's policy and regulatory coverage. He's been covering US regulatory issues for almost five years now and has more institutional knowledge on these issues than probably any other journalist on the planet. Follow him on Twitter at @nikhileshde We run through the madness of the last couple of weeks in the US, including: June 2 - the McHenry-Thompson draft legislation was introduced. The bill would provide market structure reform specific to crypto assets - including defining clearer roles for the SEC and CFTC with respect to the asset class June 5 - SEC filed 13 charges against Binance (and CZ) accusing it of operating as an unregulated securities exchange, commingling customer funds, misrepresenting trading controls on Binance.US and a bunch of other bad stuff June 6 - SEC sues Coinbase accusing it of operating as an unregistered securities exchange in the US. The agency specifically named a plethora of crypto assets as securities in the lawsuit June 7 - Binance fights back claiming that SEC Chair Gary Gensler offered to be an advisor to Binance and CZ in 2019 June 12 - Rep. Warren Davidson introduces the “SEC Stablization Act” that seeks to fire SEC Chairman Gary Gensler June 13 - the infamous Bill Hinman emails related to his 2018 speech about how Ethereum was “sufficiently decentralized” are released as part of the SEC vs Ripple lawsuit June 13 - a federal judge rejects the SEC's petition to freeze Binance.US's assets We break down these events and assess just how bad the situation is, the road ahead for crypto in the US and the outlook for much-needed crypto legislation, and implications for other markets like Brazil.

Nikhilesh De of CoinDesk joins Scam Economy with Matt Binder to break down the fall of another crypto lending company, BlockFi. This one has a twist though. BlockFi was actually bailed out by Sam Bankman-Friend of FTX this year when it first failed...and then things get interesting. BlockFi failed yet again and filed for bankruptcy after FTX's own bankruptcy. Nik breaks down what BlockFi did, where things went wrong, the dealings it had with FTX, and what's going on now. Plus! Nik and Matt discuss the latest on FTX and Sam Bankman-Fried's odd series of interviews and more!

Join me for a summary of Dr Nikhilesh Vaid's lecture entitled More Than Meets The EYE! Aligner Evidence Through Clinicians Eye It was part of the first International Orthodontic Foundation online symposium, with Ravi Nanda and co. Evidence available There are about 7000 papers available on clear aligner therapy 39 are prospective clinical trials 20 are systematic reviews What do the systematic review and meta-analysis conclude? Overall we don't have sufficient good quality trials and there is a need of more such trials In addition to that ratio of prospective trials to systematic review is merely 2: 1. Systemic review topics Treatment outcomes Aligners work well for mild to moderate cases. Alignment with aligners is reasonably competent. In Vertical sagittal and transverse dimension possess a bit of challenge. If compared with fixed appliances – doesn't fit well. *** Outcomes mainly depend on the measurement criteria. Deleterious effects Slight improvement in terms of periodontal effects Advantageous in external apical root resorption Some of periodontal indices improved, also no adverse effect was found Overall need for more studies. Other effects Force levels, only in vitro studies available with conflicting results. Pain level, it was initially lower, thereafter similar, short term QoL (Quality of life) there were less incidences of eating disturbances. Nikhilesh conclusion: Although stated in one of systematic review (Papageorgiou) the current evidence doesn't supports the use of clear aligner therapy. That this doesn't meant that it never worked. So according to Dr Vaid its on us to be able to gather some evidence. Nikhilesh's research: Effectiveness, wear, refinement 1st study - Are aligner effective Does wear protocol makes a difference? Nadawi 2021 3rd study- Can we predict the number of refinements needed? Nikhilesh's conclusion: Refinements are non-negotiable. Patients will be requiring nearly double the number of initially decided aligners. Planned Vs total aligners 108.11% Greater refinements class 3, deep bite, crowding, posterior crossbites Contributions Contents: Shanya Kapoor Editing and production: Farooq Ahmed

Part 1 explores key themes around the effectiveness of class 2 correction, how they work, different times, the role of headgear and fixed functional appliances. Q1 & 2 Do we have the evidence, and is it effective? Phase 1 o Phase 1 there is no advantage, no difference in clinical outcomes: Cochrane review Harrison 2007. o 9-10% of patients benefit from phase 1 through a reduction in trauma, Gianelly 1995. o “Just because we can doesn't mean we should” Jay Bowman Trauma · Increased OJ greater than 3mm = 2 x risk of trauma Nguyen 1999 Questions 3 Growth can we predict it? · No restraining effect on Maxilla, slight growth of the mandible and increase vertical growth Mills 1991 o 3mm growth Pg-Go o SNB improvement of 4o o NO we cannot - Unpredictable Question 4 When to treat and which on? · When: CVM 3-4 is where peak growth occure, (PHV): however only 25% of patients have 1 single peak, most have ‘multiple peaks' · Which one: Efficiency- Herbst 0.28mm, TB 0.23mm, Herbst more efficient - fixed more efficient Question 5 What changes take place? Functional appliances don't all work the same: · Removable: o Upper molar distalisation / upright o Upper incisor uprighting · Fixed o Upper molar distalisation / upright o Increase mandibular length (Po-Go) Question 6 Do they grow mandibles? · AAO Council statement 2005 – “No scientific evidence of increase in mandible” o Lengthening of condyle and ramus does occur. o Glenoid fossa remodelling does occur. o No evidence shows: § Insignificant overall increase in length . § Condyle growth cannot be permanently increased. Question 7 Does HG still have a role? · Vertical and AP changes do occur with HG after 6/12 Burke 1992, Nanda 2006, · Compliance however is 56% Brandao Question 8 Effectiveness of fixed functional appliances? · Compliance nearly 100% · Phase 1 shorter 4.5 months · Forsus Vs Powerscope: o More AP change with Forsus Arora 2018 · New ideas of fixed functional and TAD / miniplates References Harrison, J.E., D O'Brien, K. and Worthington, H.V., 2007.

Sita has now been formally studying and practicing Indigenous Plant Wisdom for over nine years. She has undertaken an apprenticeship in the Shipibo tradition. She works and learns from the Master Plants and dietas. She works with individuals and groups in ceremony.Sita came to Ayahuasca through her yoga practice when she was invited to join a journey by her teacher. When she participated in that first ceremony over eight years ago, she had been abstinent from all alcohol and drugs and had maintained self imposed dietary restrictions.In this period of rapid change, the call to individual and collective awakening is clear. It's beyond coincidence that the use of visionary/healing/awakening plants such as ayahuasca, psilocybe mushrooms, iboga, peyote, cannabis, and others is spreading rapidly at this time.When encountered in the best of conditions, these plants may be the most effective teachers we have now - direct conduits to the deepest, most enlightening truths. Our intention with this second Spirit Plant Medicine Conference is to offer accurate, respectful, and most of all beneficial information and inspiration on the use of and larger context around such plants. It's an intention arising from a vision and a prayer carried in the hearts of many.To that end we're assembling an exceptional group of knowledgeable, engaging, and heartfelt speakers to share their wisdom. You're warmly invited to join us for a remarkable weekend of insight, inspiration, compassion, and yes, humour.http://SpiritPlantMedicine.comSPIRIT PLANT MEDICINE CONFERENCEUBC, VANCOUVER, OCTOBER 26~28, 2012Friday, October 26, 6:30 p.m. to 10 p.m.6:30 - registration7:30 - blessings and opening remarks8:00 - “New Applications for Visionary Plants,” James Fadiman9:00 - “Meeting of Mind and Spirit: Learning from Sacred Plants,” AyasminA Flores, Sitaramaya10:00 - closeSaturday, October 27, 10 am - 10 pm10:00 - live music10:15 - “Psilocybin: Consciousness and Reciprocity,” Kathleen Harrison11:15 - “What the Plant Kingdom is Telling Us,” Jennifer Rae12:00 - lunch (vegan meal provided by Eternal Abundance Cafe is included in price of tickets)1:00 - live music1:15 - “Ayahuasca and Shamanic Spirituality,” Stephan Beyer2:15 - “Women, Plants, Culture” Kathleen Harrison, Eleonora Molnar, Ayasmina Flores, Sitaramaya3:30 - break4:00 - Deepening Practice, with Satyen Raja4:15 - “Bridging Non-Ordinary to Ordinary States: The WarriorSage's Way,” Satyen Raja5:15 - “Iboga and Waking Dreams,” Jonathan Dickinson6:00 - dinner (vegan meal provided by Eternal Abundance Cafe is included in price of tickets)7:00 - live music7:15 - TBD8:15 - presentation: TBD9:00 - panel: “A Guardian Lives in Her Leaves: On Cannabis Spirituality,” Chris Bennett, Dee Dussault, Nikhilesh, Stephen Gray10:00 - closeSunday, October 28, 10 am - 5 pm10:00 - live music10:15 - “Shamanic Techniques for Self-Care,” Kathleen Harrison11:15 - Interactive workshop: “The Healing Power of Chants,” AyasminA Flores, Sitaramaya12:00 - lunch (vegan meal provided by Eternal Abundance Cafe is included in price of tickets)1:00 - live music1:15 - panel: “Ethics, Legalities, and Multicultural Considerations” Stephan Beyer, Ayasmina Flores, Sitaramaya, Kenneth Tupper2:30 - short break2:45 - presentation: TBD3:45 - panel: “Back to the Future: The Path Forward” James Fadiman, Stephan Beyer4:45 - closing ceremony and remarks5:00 - The End . . . or . . .

Satyen Raja, Founder of WarriorSage and Ignite Passion Now. He is a living synthesis of Eastern wisdom and Western practicality, combining the power of the warrior and the wisdom of the sage. He is a Kung-Fu Master and an Illumination Intensive Master. In fact, Satyen is one of the very few lead facilitators of the Zen-based Illumination Intensive, and the first to make this technique available on an international scale. The Illumination Intensive and the Sex, Passion & Enlightenment Intensive are just two of a range of trainings that Satyen has taught to tens of thousands of students in Canada, the U.S., Australia and Europe.In this period of rapid change, the call to individual and collective awakening is clear.
