I'm with you on the confusion on SMTs. I understand what they do... I just don't understand where the value in them comes from....
If you create 10,000 BETHs and give me one... what value does it have? I'm guessing it has no value until someone wants my BETH and will give me something I want for it. We've seen it work with cryptocurrencies, but behind the crypto there is always the technology that someone is backing to succeed.
CryptoKitties had value, people were paying heaps for them because they were fun and cute... until they weren't... and I'm sure people have now lost hundreds of dollars on kitties no one will buy. These Tokens though, I'm just not really sure where they get their value from.
I'm sorry your shoulder sucks. I've never been a believer in resting, but it's always hard to know if you're doing the right thing or not. I'm definitely all about heat though... if you've got some spare cash, maybe look into a heated pad?
I'm with you on the side gig... but look at our yoga friends... they keep producing fun content until whales took notice, and they're doing okay. I'm just not sure if that's going to be possible for everybody.
