How long can you store MDMA?

Does it lose it's potency over time? What's the best way to store it?

Mine never lasts more than a week. But it degrades into hard currency wich then buys more mdma.

Viscous cycle trying to store mdma

No, in fact it's one of the most stable drugs in existence. Shulgin says if stored properly it would last thousands of years. Store it as you would any other drug -- away from light, heat, and humidity.

Almost indefinitely. The second result that comes out of searching "storing MDMA" is an old post somebody made on /r/MDMA

"MDMA is an extremely stable molecule and I think it was Shulgin who said something like "it will probably out live you". If you've got pills it's the binders that will break down first so just keep away from moisture"

Keep away from humidity, keep it dark, keep it cool. It would degrade if left in direct sunlight and open air for months on end, even then it won't be too huge of a difference.

I'm sure experts will comment here soon but I believe if you store it in somewhere cool (like the fridge) and protected from light and air, it will last practically forever. I think I read that the PTSD studies in Boulder are being done with MDMA made for government testing in the 60s that was stored cold. They treated its potency and it was still like 95% of its original concentration. I'll look for the source...

In clay jars wrapped in papyrus.

I have capsules that the white crystal inside has turned brown. Maybe the crystals weren't dry? I always keep them in a cool dry dark place so not sure what happened. Regent test still goes purple/black but not sure if they're safe. Anyone seen this before?

It should store indefinitely.

The least-stable part of the molecule is the methylene dioxy bridge.

If this was somehow removed, it would just become methamphetamine which is a more expensive, superior amphetamine.
