Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Contingencies	Contingencies General Litigation and Disputes From time to time, in the normal course of operations, the Company may be a party to litigation and other dispute matters and claims. Litigation can be expensive and disruptive to normal business operations. Moreover, the results of complex legal proceedings are difficult to predict. An unfavorable outcome to any legal matter, if material, could have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s operations or financial position, liquidity or results of operations. Wendy Cunning vs Skye Bioscience, Inc. The Company is a party to a legal proceeding with a former employee alleging, among other things, wrongful termination, violation of whistleblower protections under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and retaliation under California law against the Company relating to certain actions and events that occurred with the Company's former management during the employee's employment term from March 2018 to July 2019. The complaint seeks unspecified economic and non-economic losses, as well as attorneys’ fees. The case, entitled Wendy Cunning vs Skye Bioscience, Inc., was filed in U.S. District Court (the "District Court") for the Central District of California (the “Cunning Lawsuit”). On January 18, 2023, a jury rendered a verdict in favor of the plaintiff and awarded her $512,500 in economic damages (e.g., lost earnings, future earnings and interest), $840,960 in non-economic damages (e.g., emotional distress) and $3,500,000 in punitive damages. On August 2, 2023, the District Court ruled on the plaintiff's motion for attorney fees and awarded the plaintiff $1,200,008. Based on this order, the Company reduced the aggregate estimate for the legal contingency by $151,842, the difference between the attorney fees awarded by the District Court and the Company's previous estimate. On August 17, 2023, the Company obtained a stay on enforcement of the judgment in the Cunning Lawsuit by posting an appeal bond in the amount of $9,080,202. In March of 2023, the Company appealed the judgment in the Cunning Lawsuit to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth District (the "Ninth Circuit"). On October 22, 2024, the Ninth Circuit issued its decision in the Company's favor which vacated the judgment and remanded the case back to the District Court for a new trial. As a result, the Company recovered the $9,080,202 restriction on its cash related to the bond during the year ended December 31, 2024. The new trial is currently scheduled to be held in February 2026. During the year ended December 31, 2024, management revised its assumptions related to its estimate of the legal contingency and the Company reversed the accrued interest on the original judgment and recognized a gain of $4,234,717 in change in estimate for legal contingencies. As of September 30, 2025, the estimated legal contingency, including accrued legal expenses, is $2,054,357. In arriving at the conclusion that a significant portion of the estimated legal contingency should be reversed, the Company considered the following in revising its assumptions: •advice from external advisors including its technical accounting advisors regarding the appropriate application of GAAP and legal counsel’s advice with regard to prior experience with similar cases, •the damages and potential attorney fee awards if the case were to be retried, including the likelihood of a subsequent loss if the Company were to be unsuccessful, while giving consideration to the facts and circumstances that would be inadmissible due to the Ninth Circuit’s decision, •the likelihood of settlement and information obtained during settlement discussions prior to the first trial, •the Company’s possible defenses and counterclaims, and •the case history and the amount of the prior judgment. The final amount of the loss and loss recoveries remain uncertain. The ultimate amount of the potential loss may be significantly less than the amount of the revised legal contingency and there is no guarantee that the Company will be successful in its efforts to recover additional losses. The Company believes that it is at least reasonably possible that the estimated amount of the potential loss may change in the near term.
