Not being able to smell sucks. I was able to smell for the first 20+ years of my life and then lost it.
After years of going to doctors getting treated for polyps and allergies and all kinds of things I was diagnosed with Samter's Triad.
I know you have this since birth and it most likely is not what you have, but other people with similar symptoms may want to look into that, because not many doctors that I came across knew this.

Which in turn shows it came from Tornado Cash which was put on the OFAC blacklist in August. So redox will likely have a very hard time to get this converted.
He doesn't need to get it converted though. There are enough people that don't live in the US and would be happy to get paid in ETH to work on an open source project.
In a way, it seems almost like a feature that he can't just take out and convert the money :)
By that logic US persons can't use Ethereum at all. If you withdraw ETH from Coinbase it is very likely that those coins will have passed through tornado.cash at some point.
This logic obviously doesn't hold up to even the slightest scrutiny. There's too much American money invested in Ethereum for any government agency to even seriously consider the idea of destroying it like this.
The reality right now is that there are coloured coins by default. We said this would happen back like at least five years ago, and now it is finally here. This is only the start and is essentially the doom of the libertarian case for the blockchain, and once that is out the window I see very little use for it that a normal DB of cryptographic public keys couldn't handle.
The sanctions technically only forbid future interactions with Tornado Cash contracts. However the compliance employees would get a note from Chainalysis saying that this guy received a bunch of ETH that was indirectly sourced from Tornado Cash and potentially do something about it (Kucoin Bitfinex et al would probably do nothing).
My understanding of the sanctions is that it's only the contract and a few addresses that are sanctioned. Coins that once went through tornado are fine.
I’m assuming they mean something like Monero (maybe also ZK-something). I don’t understand how it works, but enough people say they are anonymous, that I believe them ;)
When the IRS is offering $100k bounties to break the anonymous features, it sounds pretty secure. Although if there is enough interest in breaking the obfuscation, these things normally end up finding the hole.
I agree. I meant more in the sense that if the vulnerability is fairly obvious, multiple people will claim the bounty and if you try to simultaneously not pay all these people because their find was not unique, and also say that nobody has claimed the bounty, I can't imagine that going well. People tend to get mad when they don't get paid.
I did think this too. I would hope that I am small enough fish that I'm not worth them wasting that backdoor on, as I assume it will be patched once revealed.
At what point do I have to stop being paranoid so that I can get anything done?
Join me friend and welcome to the finer arts of procrastination, where our minds shall tirelessly conjure up vivid departures from reality in order to avoid doing something simple that needs to be done.
The payment process is a little tricky - it doesn't ask you for an email address and displays the license on the resulting page. If I don't record the license key manually I will need to get in touch with you to try and recover it.
It would be better to get it emailed or get some prompt to record it etc.
Well here is one other random sample who has to turn the inner voice on when necessary :)
Instead of a voice I have a constant song playing in my head when I am not focused. The song changes multiple times per week but if I am on idle I have a song.
When I speak the song turns off, but no voice comes on, unless I consciously prepare my words.
Now when typing this comment, I have a voice (which is my own voice) say the words I am about to type milliseconds before I type them.
I also have a song playing in my head most of the time (even while reading but not writing , like you). I’m a hobbyist musician; maybe that’s part of it.
But I also have an inner voice . I think the music stops when the voice starts, not sure.
For the last week I’ve had “right down the line” by Gerry Raferty (70s pop song) playing.
This repetetive inner soundtrack thimg can be really annoying sometimes, hampering or even killing concentration on "real thoughts".
Any pro tips on how to turn that off? Best approach I found is bulldozing it over with a really powerful but not too beautiful/memorable song. The famous "rickrolling" piece seems to work OK for this. (I.e. not by actually hearing it, just by intentionally "playing it internally".)
