I personally think the spread of diy in vitro/tissue culture in the Hobby is a good way of making a Lot of These plants more available. Sort of Like crowdfunding the Establishment of in vitro populations thereby influencing the availability and disincentivising poaching. Many different Clones at lower prices means more people will likely raise These plants and breed them, thereby increasing the genetica diversity thats available in captivity. If people truly love These plants, they should strive to do their Part , however small, to Help the Situation and Not Make it worse. Stronger regulations and protection in the country of Origin might be hard to achieve, given the bigger Problems they have and the economic difficulties that make corruption inescapable
