I've watched a bunch of this. Does he mention where to get the precursors to the medicines he's trying to make?

It’s in ChemHacktica buyables afaict which looks similar to askcos MIT. Played around with it, the products I looked up would be extraordinarily expensive. Guess that’s not a surprise if you are buying 10mg of XYZ at a time vs the “100 tons” they probably buy for labs in China.

Haven’t watched video yet, besides being fun what is the use of this? I see in the defcon video a mention of hep c treatment which , last I heard was something 50,000 usd (looking it up ranges 23k-80k) so I guess that makes sense vs trying to make bathtub antibiotics and steroids.

Fun, I’m probably on another “list” now.
