Im curious about what you're building and what techical challenges you're facing/solving? Does it involve a token, nft, or getting rich quick? If yes my curiosity will probably be very very low since it sounds like 99% of cry

I think if you've committed to having someone killed to the point that you have pulled the trigger so to speak, you have crossed a line that most humans do not. I sure hope you have not crossed that line before
