> Currently, the market price for just 100 grams of this type of conductive plastic would be around USD 100,000—about ten times as much as actual gold. But for the human body, it is in fact the absence of metals that makes this material so valuable.
Is there any reason that conductive Graphene and Carbon allotropes like Carbon Nanotubes (CNT) can't solve for in-vivo applications?

Why plastic?
