Magic Mushrooms: how will the market play out? The ‘hemp’ / CBD / Delta-8?

That’s very cool but unless I’m missing something it’s not psychedelic. I’m all for investigating minor alkaloids of psychedelic mushrooms but I don’t see isolating these compounds as commercially viable, especially when you can easily and relatively cheaply synthesize all tryptamines. Since there’s no mushroom farm bill giving special legality to naturally derived mushroom extracts there’s no incentive for genetic or remediation based techniques to increase minors and decrease psilocybin/psilocin.
