Is RNA World hypothesis bullshit

Anonymous No. 16237481

it's not a silver bullet that explains everything.
Still, it's worth knowing, this shit is too good to totally ignore:

IMHO, no. It seems very plausible.

What's the alternative?

What's with the RNA World threads lately? Which YouTuber is responsible?

Protein interaction world, where RNA and DNA strands were synthesized to become memory for the protein systems

I see. Isn't it a "chicken vs egg" problem then?

Lol, that's it. Most 4channers are literally just stupid children. Noticed the same thing.

It is...
Peptides can self replicate.
RNA strands can self replicate.
DNA strands can self replicate.
NACl crystals can self replicate.
Small proteins can self replicate.

It's all self-replicating in the sense of thermal cycling, hydration and desiccation with lightning creating the chemical blocks in the first place.

So it isn't really "self replication".
More like environmentally assisted replication.

Very far away from the most primitive and primeval archaebacteria.

No. RNA has some capacity to act as proteins. Such as in ribozymes.
