So there is this thing about minimal hugs someone needs... At least 4 preferably 8 or more. [1]

Assuming you like hugs, how many a day are you getting?

Looking at the results do far, there could be a real and serious hug shortage.

Assuming there is and especially if it applies to you, what tactics are you willing or wanting to deploy to remedy this?

I do hope whoever voted for blockchain based credit system for hugs is trolling. Sexwork is fine and useful, so if you want to sell hugs go for it. But please don't turn the social practice of hugging into an accounting system. :)
