#1 on Bitcoin (Live Updates)
Recorded: March 18, 2023 Duration: 1:34:30Space Recording
Full Transcription
I might be too strung out on compliments, overdose on confidence, started not to give a fuck and stop fearing the consequence, drinking every night because we drink to my accomplishments, made it way too long, I'm floating in and out of consciousness, and they saying I'm back, I'd agree with that, I just take my time with all this shit.
I still believe in that, I had someone tell me I fell off, ooh I needed that, and they wanna see me pick back up, well where'd I leave it at, I know I exaggerated things, now I got it like that, tough I'm dabbing in my shirt cause I'm just mopping like that, you know good and well that you don't want a problem like that, you gon' make someone around me catch a body like that.
No don't do it, please don't do it, cause one of us goes in and we all go through it, Drizzy got the money, so Drizzy gon' pay it, those my brothers I ain't even gotta say it, that's just something they know.
They know, they know, they know, they know, they know, they know, they know, they know, they know, they know, they know, yeah, they know, yeah, that the real is on the rise, fuck them other guys, I even gave them a chance to decide, now that's something they know, they know, they know, they know, they know.
Yeah, I'll be yelling now, money over everything, money over mine.
Then she wanna ask when it got so empty, tell her I apologize, I've been over time.
She says they missed the whole Drake, girl, don't tempt me.
If they don't get it, they'll be over you.
That new shit that you got is overdue.
You better do what you supposed to do.
I'm like, why I gotta be all that?
But still, I can't deny the fact that it's true.
Listen to you expressing all the feelings.
Soap opera rappers, all these niggas sound like all my children.
And that's who you thinking is about to come and make a killing.
I guess it really is just me, myself, and all my millions.
You know that they ain't even got it.
Guys, we broke Bitcoin.
What the fuck is up?
Alright guys, so right now I am the dedicated bozo that is giving live updates.
This is Frank here.
I'm the dedicated bozo that is giving live updates with this mint.
I believe that we have broken several Bitcoin records in this process.
If you guys go on the timeline right now, I see Bitcoiners on the timeline in disbelief.
They're like, what happened on this block, bro?
It's these inscription kids.
What's going on?
And all I'm going to say before we even get this thing started is,
I don't want to hear a single Bitcoiner ever talk shit to us again.
Man, we just paid the minors more than anybody has in fucking existence.
And so, yeah, dude, just unbelievably grateful, first of all, for the community.
But second of all, let's get to the real stuff because the night is young.
Right now we are processing the winner's list.
We will publish the winner's list.
You are going to either be heartbroken or heart up.
I don't know what the antonym for that is, you know, just hyped up, bricked up probably is the best word.
And from there, we are going to start processing refunds and sending out the inscriptions immediately tonight.
So just get booted up.
And then ZK is up here, too.
He's going to be running the OTC trading desk to start out with.
So, you know, again, you guys are now starting to figure it out.
Like, when we launch a project, we're not just trying to just launch a project.
We're trying to do everything in the right way.
And part of this culture that's forming here on Ordinals is this OTC trading culture that, honestly, for people here in the audience from the Solana space, that's how Solana started, too.
It was back in the day.
It was spreadsheets.
It was OTC.
It was Discord.
And so we have ZK and ChartFoodMonkey that are going to be running the desk up until Magic Eden drops their marketplace.
And then people can decide whether or not they like, you know, the spreadsheet vibes or the marketplace vibes more.
And pretty excited for that.
And looks like that's coming out pretty soon as well.
So, yeah.
Holy fuck.
Let's get some people up here.
Let's start talking.
And I'm looking at the Discord right now with the tech team from Luxor Mining.
And I will be giving updates live as soon as they happen.
But congratulations to the D-Gods community.
They didn't fucking believe in us.
They're out here clowning us on the fucking timeline.
It's just jokes, bro.
At the end of the day, man.
And it was programmed.
And the block that the countdown timer started at was fucking 3.33 megabytes.
I think this thing oversold by 2x.
And so we'll be sending out a lot of refunds tonight.
But really, really proud of the D-Gods community.
And number one on Bitcoin.
Let's make it fucking happen.
All right.
Let's go to ZK next.
Yo, what's going on, Frank?
Yeah, that was pretty fucking cool.
Shout out to the designers for keeping the Windows 95 or whatever year that was.
The sound effects are great, too.
Yeah, it's definitely kind of how Ordinal started.
It's like just sending Bitcoin to random address, like eventually as an ecosystem.
ZK, I'm muting you right now because your energy level is probably at like a 1.5 out of 10 right now.
And it's kind of ridiculous.
Definitely killing the vibe.
Don't know if you want to see all your bags go to zero or not.
But that's the vibe that I'm getting.
So let's run that back again.
And let's try it again.
And maybe stand up or shake around, do a push-up or something.
But let's go to Johnny next.
Frankie, unbelievable.
Unbelievable, my man.
What a show you've put on.
Fun to be a part of it.
Just feels like the good old days, brother.
And you know me.
I'm a BTC maxi.
I meant mine.
Now I meant.
I never meant anything before on BTC.
But I ate the same thing ZK did.
So I'll keep it short.
I love you.
Keep it up.
You are King Kong.
And smart move getting ZK to run the OTC.
He's the real deal, Holyfield.
Let's go, man.
It means a lot coming from you, Johnny.
You know, and it's been a long journey.
And for the people that have been here for a while in the D-Gods community, I know it's been, you know, it's not been as eventful recently, waiting for a lot of stuff.
But I've been saying this for a while now.
We've been spending the last few months working for the next few weeks.
And so it's just getting started.
The night is young.
And the migration is coming up really soon.
And, man, like, especially this week, just seeing all these people on Twitter, honestly, just have no idea kind of the strength of this community and all the stuff that we're doing has been deeply motivating for me.
And I know a lot of people in the community.
So, yeah, man, just excited.
Thank you so much, Johnny.
All right.
Let's go to โ ZK, we'll go back to you.
Maybe how are you feeling you got the push-ups in?
Yo, Craig, I'll be more excited after I see this leaderboard because then I can get really excited.
Oh, no.
If you're not a leaderboard, what's happening?
You fighting our bags to zero?
What's going on over here?
Yeah.
If I'm not a leaderboard, I'm just fighting this 100%.
And then I'm going to buy some.
And then it'll be the coolest thing.
And, yeah, history is made.
Again, 3.33 megabyte block size.
Now, just cool.
Yeah.
Excited for this.
And, yeah, good luck to everyone just nervously waiting right now and pressing F5.
Spam F5 in the Discord.
Lemons.
Yo, I got to know who was the bozo that paid $2,700.
To get their transaction in the block.
Yes.
That was funny for context.
That's wild.
Yeah.
I think they paid 10 million sats per bite as a fee.
Where, like, a high-priority transaction for the block, I think, ended up being, like,
20-something, but the median was eight.
So, yeah, they paid, I think, $2,700 in, like, gas.
Where that definitely got in, I would say.
But it's, like, completely unnecessary.
But, you know, maybe they got a rare one or something.
But, yeah, I guess we'll see how the leaderboards go.
So, yeah, I don't know, Frank.
Anything else on there?
Fucking, but that is crazy that people would do it.
But, Cuddles, anyone else try to mint?
Tardos, Umbrella, what's going on, guys?
How you doing?
Let's fucking, yo, D-God's on Bitcoin.
3.3 megabyte block.
Tardos, what's going on, man?
Yeah, no, dude, I promised myself I wouldn't mint these.
I don't hold a D-God.
But I saw the UI, and I was like, this is pretty cool.
I only hold one Bitcoin.
So now I'm pretty down bad.
But, Frank, if I don't hit, I'm just going to say that these ordinals are going to zero.
If Tardos doesn't get one, which is how it works.
Hold on, I'm taking notes here.
No, I hope you get one, man.
But, dude, it was pretty nuts.
Dude, can I get, like, Mark or Aaron or someone with, like, some charisma up here
so I can be responding to the devs and someone else?
Yeah, do you want me to co-host this stuff, Frank?
You've got to throw me the co-host if you want me to co-host, you know.
Are you going to pep it up or what?
Yeah, I'm getting up there.
Once I see this leaderboard list, I'm up there.
I'm super happy.
Until then, nervous laughter.
But, yeah, I'm excited to hear people's minting stories.
And, yeah, let's do this.
We got D-Gods on another chain.
First one to do it.
But, yeah, I think there's a lot of people just nervously waiting right now.
So, yeah, we'll wait a few minutes.
Shout out Luxor.
Another cool experience.
Shout out that website.
Excited.
Me and Chartfoo, mostly Chartfoo, has been working his ass off to get a cool OTC trading experience.
Kind of the smoothest trading experience, hopefully, on the secondary.
We've been trading a lot of Discords, learned a lot of lessons.
And, yeah, we've been working on this.
So, yeah, I don't know.
Everyone's saying my sound is shot in the Discord.
So, I'll pass it to Aaron and let the professionals get to this.
But, yeah, it's going to be a long night.
Get some coffee.
Get some snipes.
And, yeah, get ready to trade.
Dude, I actually might have to participate in this OTC spreadsheet desk because I waited too long to set up my wallet and stuff.
Rip.
But, hey, any excuse to buy more Bitcoin, am I right?
Let's fucking go.
Brad, what's up, man?
Welcome to the stage.
Hello, fellas.
How are you?
Dude, couldn't be better, man.
What kind of question is that on DGod's Christmas?
Yeah, dude, I just sat in the X Plus Discord and had the fastest thing, one of the fastest fingers in there.
So, I'm feeling pretty positive right now.
I don't know any โ I'm trying to read the blockchain.
No idea what I'm reading.
I'm position 52, and I finished in 47.15, which is pretty fast.
I haven't seen a lot faster.
I've seen a couple, but not many.
That sounds good.
I have no idea what it means, but it sounds good.
I'm feeling good?
That's the dub.
ZK, can you decipher that?
Do we think he's going to make it?
Oh, ZK's aping into something right now, guys.
He's making something.
What did you say?
What did you say, Madre?
What was that?
Just repeat that.
Lemons also came into the Discord, like, in block two and just started screaming that, like, we were ready to go and just totally disrupted the whole entire community, like, 30 of us that were in there.
The craziest thing to me is, like, if anybody else was watching the mempool and, like, just seeing the reds start forming.
I mean, I got to do the math, and we're going to, like, look at it afterwards and do a proper post-mortem year.
But, like, I think it might be the highest fee Bitcoin block ever.
I mean, holy fuck, three Bitcoin, like, something like 3.5 Bitcoin in fees.
So, man, like, that is actually nuts.
That's almost a block subsidy, right?
Like, that's insane.
Yeah, so that was just fun as fuck to watch all the transactions come in and just seeing it, like, you know, the NFT DGens, I try to warn people.
I was like, guys, guys, please, like, don't be out here just aping thousands of dollars of gas.
I don't think that's how Bitcoin works, but DGens are going to be DGens.
I mean, holy shit.
Some people just did the meme numbers and stats for the culture, and, man, like, made a statement for sure.
My theory was about what was the least amount of buttons I had to push.
So, like, I had two screens up.
I had my wallet open on the right one, and I'm double-clicking the screen on the left one where your site is, waiting for the fucking address to pop.
Copy, paste, next, standard, and I noticed you could adjust.
I was using Xverse.
You didn't have to go to, like, custom.
You could just adjust standard, and I hit three zeros, which was too much.
I paid $365, but two didn't feel like enough for me.
And then any other edit of it, like, would have taken more buttons to push.
So, it was three zeros, apply, send.
And I practiced it three or four times today.
Dude, that's โ you started the story out like you didn't ape the fees, but $365 in Bitcoin fees, I think, is really up there, man.
That's pretty nuts.
Let's go โ and by the way, for people that are just coming in, let's do โ okay, I'm a Twitter Spaces host right now.
So, for everyone that's just coming in the room right now, I'm โ we're all waiting on Luxor, the goaded team that put this together, by the way.
I want to see some claps in the fucking audience for Luxor, Mining Group, Ordinal Hub.
Like, holy shit, what an experience.
And, man, like, this tech just didn't exist.
Like, you know, these guys really scoped it out, every layer of it, tested it so thoroughly, and just really, really proud of being able to say that we work with them on this.
And they were also the people that mined the block together.
And it seems like we're going to be working together on a lot of stuff, you know, going forward.
I think Luxor is positioned really, really well right now to be an absolute beast in this upcoming Ordinal's industry and the Bitcoin NFC industry.
So, yeah, I think we're just waiting right now for them to compile the winner's list.
You guys overloaded, like, literally all of our โ like, all of our shit.
And so, we have to reboot everything, and it's processing, and we want to just make sure everything's accurate.
Once we publish the winner's list, then it's going to be straight to refunds, sending out the inscriptions themselves.
People are going to get โ it's โ you know, I see everyone at the timeline memeing, like, when instant reveal.
Well, this is about to be an instant fucking reveal.
You're going to find out what D-God you get.
And then from there, I think ZK and Charfu were going to make the announcement on the spreadsheet trading
and how you guys can start, you know, getting into that D-Gen culture, start trading on some Google Sheets.
I think we're using Airtable, though, so we've leveled up a little bit.
It's a little bougier, you know, trying to get classed the place up a little bit.
And it's crazy, man.
Charfu made it so that the Airtable feels like a fucking marketplace.
I'm not even kidding.
I'm excited for everyone to see this.
And then from there, you know, obviously, I think MagicIn is launching pretty soon within โ you know, like, early next week is what it looks like.
And at that point, you know, you guys can decide whether a marketplace or spreadsheets is what you want.
And then, yeah, dude, let's fucking get to number one on Bitcoin.
Let's see.
Maybe I got to bring the pay-per-hand bitch tax back.
I don't know.
We'll see.
We'll see.
Depends on who got these fucking ordinals.
Let's see.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I had to.
I had to.
Shout out to DNYC, baby.
Got to hit them with the plug.
If you're not going to New York in, like, four weeks, then you're dumb.
I mean, you're not dumb.
You probably have a really good reason.
But it's going to be a really great time, and I'm super pumped.
Bad Brothers, what is up, man?
You know, not so much.
I mean, we're just like, no, good project on Bitcoin and everything.
Yeah, let's fucking go, guys.
Come on.
We're going to be the number one project on Bitcoin.
We're just starting, guys.
It's season three.
It's D-God season.
Yeah, we had the Utes art delay and everything.
Everybody's going, oh, Frank and Team, they don't know what they're doing.
We're going to take it a month, but look at this.
No delay putting out these ordinals, dude.
We're kicking off season three, right?
Let's fucking go.
I'm hyped.
And let's actually talk about that because let's talk about, okay, what does it even mean,
number one, like, no marketplaces, et cetera?
So the way I'm looking at it is I think every single project that we launch has a different
strategy, and, you know, the way that each of these projects are going to be successful
is if we adopt the community and understand the different inherent benefits and disadvantages
with any one blockchain and even, like, our timing on this.
So I just think that there's a lane where we can really brand and market this thing as,
like, what was Punk's on Ethereum but on Bitcoin.
And the way I think we're going to achieve that is by focusing on a really simple core
utility, which is making the best fucking group chat possible.
Because if you really think about it, like, what gave Punk's value?
Well, the art was pretty fire, first 10K collection.
But before that even mattered, people were just in a group chat talking.
There's, like, famous stories of the CryptoPunks fucking group chat and how they got access
to all these crazy deals, how they were always in all these different things.
And to me, like, that network is a lot harder to do with the 10,000 collection now in 2023
when the entire industry is so saturated.
There's so many different types of projects.
I think our goal looking at, you know, Bitcoin D-Gods is not to create some crazy, like, staking
points.
They're not going to get any of that.
But I think that creates the inherent benefit, which is how do we just make a group of collectors
and a strong, tight-knit community that's really, really small.
I mean, 535 at the end of the day is pretty fucking tiny.
And so that's our strategy with it.
We never are going to just drop something and be like, yeah, fuck it, whatever.
And that's what I thought was so hilarious about everyone on the timeline calling us
a cash grab, saying we're grifting, whatever it is.
It's like, no, dude, when we become number one on fucking Bitcoin, we'll see, you know,
we'll see how that narrative, like, plays out.
Because we don't drop anything with just, like, no intention or no thought.
And hopefully the way we rolled this out, doing it with a Bitcoin block time, doing
it in the way where we inscribed it on the block, I think it's just so hard to replicate
at this point for another project that the uniqueness of what we're doing with these BTC
D-Gods is, I think, just powerful, man.
And obviously for people that are not part of the Mint, all this stuff, I mean, it's D-God
season and we're about to announce some stuff in our migration coming up pretty soon.
And if people have been here for a while, you know how I like to roll.
Like, we like to get the momentum going and then just keep it going for way, way longer
and go even crazier than anybody you could possibly anticipate.
And again, for people that are just joining in the room, spent the last few months working
for the next few weeks.
And I'm just so fucking grateful and excited, man.
What a crush.
What an absolute fucking domination today, guys.
That was beautiful, man.
And I cannot wait to see who gets these fucking Mythic D-Gods.
And then, yeah, man, it's going to be fun to watch this spreadsheet go crazy for sure,
at least for the first few days.
Awesome.
Anybody else?
I think we got some people requesting.
So if you spoke, if you want to head down, I'll keep bringing some more people up.
Again, I'm literally, guys, this is going to be the breaking news whenever we get it.
As soon as the winners list is up, as soon as we have any updates, I'll let you guys know.
So in the meantime, just trying to keep the momentum high, keep the vibes high right now
until we have much more substantive stuff that's happening with people way smarter than
me right now.
So I'm your resident bozo for the next X amount of time.
I'll probably be okay.
All step down, I just want to give a big thanks, brother.
You're the man.
Stay old, Pony.
Appreciate you, man.
Thank you so much.
Awesome.
I think we got D-God Hasselhoff up here, but we got like four other hands, so never mind.
Let's go Pixel, and then let's hit Lemons, and then Cuddles, and then Umbrella.
Let's fucking go.
Holy shit, what a day.
It's been all day long prepping for this shit.
I've got like six devices.
I mean, we were down to counting clicks like QR versus right click.
I mean, cleaning my screen with no glare for the QR code.
It's been fucking insane, man.
I think we probably melted, and those guys are out of business.
I'm fucking so pumped.
I don't even know what to fucking say, man.
I have not felt this since eight years ago, and I remember fucking my first BTC wallet.
I did some crazy D-Gen shit, and I lost like $200, and I cried for two days, and I feel the
same way again, and I'm so fucking grateful.
And I can finally drink, because this shit's over.
I've only had like six, and now I can have so many more, because sober minting is the
only way to go on fucking Bitcoin.
I mean, I don't know.
I'm all over the place, dude.
What do you mean this shit's over, bro?
It is just getting started.
I'm not even kidding.
I just, I got three bottles of pre-workout right next to me.
Like, if you actually think that tonight is ending after mint, then you really don't
know what to do, guys.
No, it's starting for me, bro.
I'm starting the dream.
I'm so happy.
Gummies, all of it.
Like, let's go.
Let's go.
Honestly, like, I just wanted to say the most important thing, which is fucking thank you
for like, I've never felt this much D-Gen in one fucking day.
Ever in my whole life.
Fucking a year on Solana doing all the D-Gen shit.
I made 200K minting fucking, fucking apes, the board ate Solana club bullshit in two
weeks.
This is like, I'm going to change my life in one day.
And if I don't get one of these fucking things, I don't care.
I'm going straight to secondary, man.
I don't fucking care.
I'm not going to go take that money and buy a dust bag.
I'm going to fucking buy some fucking Bitcoin network and own that shit forever.
Let's fucking go, man.
Let's fucking go, baby.
I haven't said it in a while because, you know, corporate prank is here and all that
stuff, but I am definitely bricked up after hearing that.
Hopefully, oh no, Kevin is in the room yet.
So there's that, but let's keep it going.
Let's go lemons, cuddles, and then umbrella.
All right.
So there's a question for ZK or you, Frank.
Can we kind of get like a rundown of how the OTC trading is going to work?
Like this is my first ordinal that I minted or ever traded.
So I'm kind of curious on like the process on how everything works.
Yeah.
I mean, I can take a quick stab at it.
And then, ZK, if you want to fill in the gaps here, because we and Charfoo went through
the whole thing like for a while last night.
It's pretty simple, right?
So we're going to have a spreadsheet with all of the actual inscriptions on there.
And we also have a website that's cleaner to go through and all that.
So if you want to make a collection offer, for example, right, you can fill out, you can
basically go into this discord where the only thing you're allowed to do is like put in
the price you want to buy.
And then like, you know, what is it a collection offer?
Is it for a specific ID?
Whatever it is.
And then our trustee, you know, OTC desk runners here, ZK, Charfoo, for the first bit,
we'll keep hiring out or bringing more people in for this.
If it gets more popular, it's an experiment at the end of the day.
You know, they're going to log that into the shared spreadsheet.
And that's how you know everything on the spreadsheet is verifiable.
And then whenever a trade, and then same thing if you want to list.
So if you want to list, you just put in your ask on the spreadsheet.
And, and then, you know, I mean, on that discord channel, and it's pretty simple, you literally
go to the discord channel, you put in your ID, and you put in what you're asking for,
and that's going to be discord verified.
So we figured out, like, we found a team that literally launched this like a few days ago,
Bitcoin Ordinal's discord verification.
So the roles are coming tonight, you're going to get the orange name on it.
And you'll have your own kind of separate channel.
But yeah, so then you'll be able to do the bids and asks from there.
And then the spreadsheet is more just to track everything.
And then it'll have discord, not like your name, but the ID, which is, I think, the eight
digit number.
So that way, it's, you can't get scammed, because you know that that eight digit number,
like, you can't fake it, put like an eye that looks like an L, and kind of just barter
from there.
So that's how it's going to start.
I know that might seem like what the fuck to a lot of people in the audience here.
But I think when you actually look at it, it's pretty straightforward.
Like you have a gallery view on Airtable, and it looks like a fucking marketplace.
It's just hilarious.
Like, it literally looks like a marketplace.
So that's what it's going to look like for the first few days.
And when obviously when Magic Eden comes in, maybe other marketplaces, you're free to list
wherever you want.
I think we just want to make sure we didn't leave our holders out to dry to just go figure
it out.
Like, let's give them a core experience to start with.
And then from there, they can go figure it out.
And yeah, that's kind of how it's going to look like.
Let me know if you have follow-ups there, or if ZK wants to add anything.
Yeah, I was going to say, right off the bat, we have a collection offer.
So kind of just like a floor price offer.
And then you also have a trade offer built in.
And it's all going to be like kind of publicly available on the spreadsheets.
That's all gets updated in real time.
Everything's based on the inscription number.
But yeah, it's kind of once you see it and the channel's open, just read through the
directions.
Me and Charfru took some time just spelling out everything.
But yeah, it's just going to be a fun experiment.
And yeah, it should be a good time.
But that's it.
But yeah, it's going to be exciting.
And it will be relatively clear.
Guys, I'm reading the chat right now.
I'm just like giving you guys live updates.
As I said, still no winners list yet.
But they're going through all the stats, very preliminary lists.
And he said that the first 500 transactions came in in two minutes and six seconds.
Holy fucking shit.
Jesus Christ.
That is absolutely nuts.
First 500 minutes happened in the first two minutes and six seconds on fucking Bitcoin.
Wow.
No, but I guess we're grifters and there's no way this thing's going to sell out.
So, yeah, blah, blah, blah.
Yeah, you know.
Yeah, it's all good.
It's fine.
We won't smoke that back yet.
Let's get number one on Bitcoin first.
And then the fucking Drake songs are coming out.
But, you know, the job's not finished.
We're still here.
Don't worry about it.
All right.
Let's keep going to the hands.
Just have to break that up for some breaking news there.
Wait, the last thing I want to say on the OTC thing, by the way.
So, for now, ZK and Chartfu are both two people that a lot of people in the community know really well.
So, when it comes to actually trading, don't worry.
You're not going to have to send it to some random person on Discord.
You'll basically send it to either, like, Chartfu or ZK.
And they'll have both sides of that trade.
And then they'll send it to respective people from there.
So, that way you just know, like, worst case scenario, the guy pulls out of the deal.
Like, ZK is going to send it back to you.
Chartfu is going to send it back to you.
They have a pretty big reputation in this space, and we've known them for both of them for over a year now.
And they're not going anywhere.
So, and then once we find more trusted people, if this thing gets popular, again, for people that are stressed now, like, dude, this thing's going to zero.
It's on spreadsheets, whatever.
Like, marketplaces are coming.
Ordinals is literally a month old.
It took Solana, like, six and a half months of having NFTs until Magic Eden came along.
And, I mean, OpenSea was just sitting there, barely anyone using it for two and a half years up until it really got traction.
So, let's relax a little bit.
But, yeah, again, I do think that there's something to this that's pretty magical.
And the best way to put it, and I saw a bunch of tweets about this earlier today, there's something pretty great about getting customer service, like, five-star customer service as you are, like, trying to find a collectible item.
And so, that's something that we just want to continue to grow out.
All this stuff's going to be branded with our branding.
We want to continue to try to improve that experience if it gets popular.
And then, when we're bringing on people that I think will likely probably be whales, you know, that want to get these Bitcoin decods, they're going to get that five-star, four-seasons type experience.
You know, they'll get all the information on what trades people like, you know, what resonates with them, that kind of stuff.
And so, I think that's going to be really cool, too.
So, yeah.
And, you know, Frank, I will say, right off the bat, me and Tartfu are going to handle each transaction or each trade, like, one by one in a separate channel.
It's organized and voice chat, and, like, we're happy to help people if they're just not 100% sure, like, ask us.
But, you know, be patient because we'll see how busy it is.
But, yeah, excited for this.
But, yeah, definitely here to help you guys.
Let's go to Trevor.
Haven't heard him.
I mean, Trevor, tell us, like, give us your perspective on this, like, coming from the Bitcoin side.
Like, what the fuck?
Yo, I am so bullish right now, guys.
This is so exciting.
Like, how fucking exciting is this?
Like, I thought I was flooring it.
I'm, like, 333 gas.
Like, who's going to do that?
It was, like, first of all, it started low.
It was, like, you know, I think the block before we're at 9, and then it's kicking up to 20.
I'm, like, all right.
But, you know, and then I just put 333.
I'm, like, who's going to do this?
I checked the block.
Somebody put 39K.
Another person 36K, 33K, like, 27K, 27K, 27K, 25K, 24K.
Like, you guys, I fucking love you guys.
Like, you guys are ultimate DGEN's badass.
It's, like, 381 people bid more than me without even thinking about it.
I thought, I'm, like, man, I'm, like, I got to, you know, I'm even thinking, like, hey, you know, I was going to, like, I want to be able to brag about this.
I want to be able to tweet, like, hey, guys, I floored this.
Look up what a badass DGEN I am.
And, damn, you guys, I just love it.
This community is amazing.
Like, props to Frank, good timing, good execution as always.
And, yeah, guys, I think everybody made a good decision participating for sure because the vibes right now are very bullish.
I think I see a lot of people tuning in.
I got, like, one of the core developers of Bitcoin, like, checking my tweets right now who is actually an Ordinal's hater.
And now he's looking on the block and he's saying he's seeing 3.5 BTC in fees compared to a normal 0.3, like, BTC in fees.
Let's fucking go, bro.
Say that again, dude.
I don't want to hear a Bitcoin core developer talk shit ever again.
I swear to God.
Yeah, man.
I mean, 0.3 average and we did 3.5 BTC in fees.
That's fucking ridiculous, bro.
Holy shit.
But, yeah, man, I mean, security budget's back.
Bitcoin is back.
Congrats to everybody, man.
Congrats to everybody.
Thank you, man.
I can't wait to see you rocking, hopefully, a Bitcoin D-God pretty soon.
It's going to be late.
We've got the orange background.
I don't know if people saw that.
I'll pin it up here, by the way.
Because, you know, when we do stuff, we want to put that special touch in it.
We're ambitious with this shit, right?
So we actually went ahead and made an Explorer so you could actually see the original D-God that you actually minted, get the full res version of it.
And then if you want to, the D-God's orange that we artfully were fucking memeing all over the timeline, you know, just a week ago.
By the way, if you bought Bitcoin, you know, when we started memeing Bitcoin, when the orange block started going, fucking congratulations.
I think you're up like $8,000.
So let's go.
But I think the other side of it, too, yeah, it's like have those orange backgrounds so people can stand out on Twitter.
And, again, the goal for the Bitcoin D-Gods is to be that luxury section of the D-Gods ecosystem.
And we're going to go fuck shit up on ETH in the way you guys saw tonight.
And I think a much bigger scale, honestly, because way more people are hyped about NFTs on ETH than on Bitcoin.
It's early days on Bitcoin.
And I think a lot of that, you know, brand and notoriety is going to carry over to these Bitcoin D-Gods, which, man, like being denominated in Bitcoin is just OP, bro.
It's not fair.
It's not fair.
ETH needs to get on that wave.
They need to start denominating everything in Bitcoin, I swear.
But thank you so much, Trevor.
That is nuts stat, man.
That is pretty fucking cool to hear.
All right, Cuddles, I know you've been waiting for a while.
Go for it.
Frank, I've been losing my fucking mind, man, hanging out, fucking getting cut in line by Trevor.
Trevor, pleasure to fucking meet you, man.
This shit's exciting as fuck.
I never bought the Bitcoins before because I tried in, like, 2011, and then my bank was like, fuck you, that's our money.
And then I was like, I don't like banks.
Then it took me all this fucking time, and I'm excited as shit, and I went full DJing with this, right?
We got the corporate questions out of the way.
We got Frank talking about stuff without saying bad words.
It's like, dog, fuck all that.
I went out and fucking loaned out my PFP for, like, 460 fucking sold, barely made the Bitcoin cutoff.
And here I am, fucking max bidding.
Everyone's like, how many fucking stats are you doing?
I'm like, I don't know what the fuck a stat is, but I'll push three, six fucking times.
And I'll push out some dope-ass fees, like $100, and I'm like, oh, it's like I'm on ETH now without being on ETH.
This shit's exciting as fuck.
I don't know.
I think my fucking position in the block was, like, 227 or something.
Frank, I recorded the entire fucking thing.
I don't think there's any audio because I don't know how to use computers or much of anything, but, like, I'll find a way to get that to you.
So I actually recorded on Eden's phone on our screen recording, and so we did get audio, and it's pretty fucking hilarious.
I definitely will do some iconic D-Gods video with that experience.
And, by the way, if people have any videos or anything from the Mint experience, please, like, send it over to the D-Gods account because my DMs on Frank account are just absolutely fucking wrecked.
So that would be great.
And if not the D-Gods account, yet maybe you can send it to the Frank account.
I don't know if DMs are on this thing, but, yeah, that would be great.
I would love to cut something together maybe tonight.
I mean, the night is young, dude.
I got three pre-workouts right next to me.
If you're going to sleep right now, you're missing out on the spreadsheet.
You're missing out on who's getting these Mythic D-Gods, and I feel bad for you, man, because this is going to be a night to remember.
Let's fucking go.
Somebody's getting fucking Manoj tonight.
That's crazy, bro.
Like, Manoj is coming back, and if I swear to God, if I get Manoj, someone's getting the fucking OG D-Gods fucking sweater with the box that came in in L.A.
Or, and if I don't get it, I'll just sell it for, like, .334 to fucking turn that sweet Solana profit of $10.
Like, I'm down for this shit.
I'm excited as fuck.
I don't even have questions.
I'm just here to be a part of the fucking party.
I'm fucking turning.
I'm burning.
My wife's excited as fuck.
She's like, what's a fucking BTC?
I'm like, you're a little confused, but it's okay, honey.
Like, just trust me.
I'm going to do this thing.
I'm going to get this other thing.
I'm going to dump on these bozo peoples.
Maybe.
I don't know.
I've got to fucking get my PFP back.
Like, I'm really worried about this loan now because I'm worried about me to get emotionally attached to a fucking Butcoin D-God.
I don't know, man.
I'm so excited.
Oh, now, you're still going to loan on your D-God?
Oh, absolutely, man.
I've got zero fucking liquid.
The moment, I'm like, look, I need to save a little bit of money.
Bro, the big pointers, the audience are losing their shit right now, bro.
That's a lot.
I need to be financially responsible.
And then I'm like, well, what if instead I bought a whole bunch of fucking Butcoin?
Because I feel like Butcoin's a better name.
And it really resonates with the younger generation.
They're like, man, I'm just out here old as shit, just trying to fucking buy things to make me feel good.
And that's where I am, right?
I'll step off.
But, like, this shit's been fun as fuck.
I miss the original mint.
Dude, back when fucking D-God's minted, I was hanging out fucking screenshotting my buddy's NFT's, like, LOL, dork.
You bought 17 fucking dork gods?
What the fuck is this?
They're my dork gods now.
Two months later, I'm stuck in a fucking, just sitting on the side of the road in the fucking rain with him.
And he's like, dude, buy dork gods.
Buy fucking, buy whatever.
I didn't want to, but I was stuck outside.
So I was like, whatever, man.
I'll throw a few hundred bucks in.
And here I am later.
No fucking clue what I'm doing.
Everybody thinks I'm some weird fucking bozo dork god whale.
No, now I just like the color orange and I throw money at things that I don't understand.
But I love it.
And I'm fucking here for it.
Like, Bitcoin, I love you.
I'll step off.
I mean, I think we can summarize that with Bitcoin, I love you.
Thank you so much, Cuddles.
Let's go to Jan.
He's up here with his youth.
This is the founder of Xverse Wallet.
And a lot of you fucking people today were using Xverse Wallet.
And I just got to shout them out.
I got to really shout them out because the customer support was pretty unbelievably good.
Like, you know, they were responding to a lot of DMs.
A lot of people got their questions answered.
So thank you so much, Jan, for stepping up in that moment.
And I'm curious what your perspective on all this is.
Did you admit?
Are you in?
Or what's the deal?
Let's hear it.
Hey, Frank.
Awesome to be here.
And just a correction.
I'm not the founder.
Ken is the founder.
But I'm working with him hand in hand to just grow this thing, right?
And super excited.
You know, obviously, I'm in.
I submitted.
I minted.
I hope I can get one.
But, you know, just listening to Trevor and what's actually happened today, you know,
I'm not sure because you guys are so freaking crazy.
And, you know, I just want to really, you know, also say that I really appreciate you guys,
you know, all the shout outs.
And we got like 20 different messages of people complaining about certain things.
And I think we solved most of those problems, those problems that we maybe couldn't solve
because they're related more to the Bitcoin blockchain than us as a company.
You know, I apologize for the experience.
Obviously, we need to do better in terms of communicating these things.
You know, I think, Frank, you did a very good job, you know, just letting people know
at least like 24 hours in advance to prepare their Bitcoin because obviously, you know,
yeah, it takes time, you know, to receive Bitcoin from different wallets sometimes.
But, no, I'm just super excited for you guys.
I hope I can get one.
And, yeah, guys, if you have any questions, if there's any outstanding problem, anything
that you need us to solve to look at, just DM me.
And I'm here, you know, I'm actually in Asia right now.
So I woke up at like 5 a.m. in the morning.
I was so excited.
I don't need pre-workouts, Frank.
I'm actually in the gym right now bench pressing because I need to get the adrenaline
out of my body, you know.
So, you know, super, super, super stoked.
And, you know, let's get it, guys.
That's what I like to hear.
Let's fucking go.
Thank you, man, so much for all the support there.
I think a lot of people had a great experience on your wallet today.
I think depending on if they get their mints or not, that's going to determine how they
think about experts.
So no pressure there.
But, you know, I will say that this is, yeah, man, this is just pretty, pretty nuts.
I'm waiting again on updates.
So for people that are just joining in the room, still working on this winner's list and
want to just make sure it's like airtight.
Want to make sure like right after the winner's list goes out, we're ready to do all the refunds.
It's annoying because some people put like very low fees on their transactions.
It looks like it looks like.
And so we're still waiting for those to confirm so we can batch send out the refunds as well.
So, yeah, man, it's about to get exciting once that once that list goes out.
I feel like a lot of people are going to sell all of a sudden hate Bitcoin de-guards.
Maybe some people on the stage right here might just be hating on it on the timeline, but we
know why.
So, yeah, let's keep it going.
Umbrella hasn't gotten a chance to talk yet.
He's been up here for a minute.
What's up, man?
Yeah, I might be one of those hating my Sparrow wallet just bloody bugged out on me.
I think we broke Sparrow and Electrum servers.
I was struggling to broadcast the transactions.
But I was one of those stupid NFT MFs that put a million plus Vsats.
I thought it was only like a couple hundred dollars.
I was like, ah, minting on kind of ETH at least spend $1,000.
So I said, what's a couple hundred dollars spending on a mint?
You know, max bidding de-guards.
I was like, nah, it's not a problem.
Bro, the Bitcoiners are going crazy right now hearing this, dude.
That's fire, bro.
And back in the day, the Friday Eve mint, you would at least spend like $1,000 minting something.
Just when are the raffles happening as well as the auctions?
That's a great question.
So I think what's going to happen right now, there's obviously a pretty core focus here on getting the stuff out, getting everyone their inscriptions.
I think it's not hard to imagine that obviously it's probably going to start tomorrow.
And that's going to kind of kick off with a bang.
So, yeah, I think that's like the best timeline I have right now.
Yeah, tonight is just going to be a long night.
So we'll see, you know, the energy levels here.
But that's like next up on the list.
After the first batch of raffles go out, then we're going to probably get the Discord verification stuff up tonight for the Bitcoin D gods, get the trading desk out tonight.
And then from there, after the raffles and auctions, I think we're going to keep making really sick designs.
And that's the thing.
Part of the reason we branded this in this like Windows 95 style that I think at this point, at least on NFT Twitter, crypto Twitter is becoming kind of iconic here, is that it allows us to keep making content in the future for and about the Bitcoin D gods.
You know, because it's so obviously clear that if we do like the orange, if we do the Windows 95 stuff, we're talking about updates with the Bitcoin D gods.
And so but but, you know, that's I'm saying that because I think a lot of the focus is going to go towards a lot of the exciting stuff happening with the migration.
D guys to eat, use the polygon.
And we'll continue to post and talk about, you know, Bitcoin D gods and build that community out.
But I think that the cool thing about the fact that these are D gods, which a lot of people, again, on the timeline were criticizing.
They were like, dude, why don't you do like you go like, oh, just do the fucking like do some random art.
You just drop on the chain.
It's not really, you know, why are you inflating the supply?
I'm like, bro, like this is going to be a better move because we're going to keep growing the D gods brand on ETH.
And and that's just going to lead to, I think, downstream effects for these Bitcoin D gods.
So, yeah, that's where we're at right now on timeline for the auctions raffles.
It's next up on the priority list.
So let us just get through all the a lot of shit we have to do tonight.
And let's get this thing operating.
You know, I think we've gotten to lift off here, but let's let's soar in the fucking sky and then let's land this plane.
That's that's where we're at right now.
Mentally.
Love it.
I'm going to step down and probably pass out.
Let's fucking hope you hope you wake up with a fucking beautiful ordinal D god in your wallet.
Man, that's fingers crossed right there.
Let's see.
OK, we got to keep going back to Trevor.
He's a host.
And this man is just like a dot BTC.
I don't see any U.M. efforts on stage with a dot BTC.
Got a bunch of shit coin JPEGers up here.
So Trevor hit us, man.
What's up?
Yeah, man.
I just want to comment on the guy who absolutely floored it with 40 K sats for V by overpaying by 933 times.
Paying two thousand seven thirty six dollars in gas.
That motherfucker is going to make a lot of money probably on this, to be honest.
I think honestly, like you think about it.
You know, the floor, the these are these ones were like minted for cheaper than this.
A lot of D got.
Right.
Yeah.
And that was actually like I made this tweet thread today.
And by the way, it's just so poetic that the block.
Like so I know it wasn't the block that the actual transactions happened on, but it was the block that started the actual mint.
And so it's pretty magical.
That was three point three three megabytes.
But no, I made this.
I made this thread today because I woke up and I was hyped about the mint.
I was hyped.
You know, I think now there's no debate.
Right.
This shit would have sold out if we did it at point five.
To be honest, like we literally to I think now it's confirmed in the first two minutes it's sold out.
And then after that, I think we got three times the actual mint out.
So a lot of refunds going out tonight.
So fuck everybody that was debating whether or not this thing would sell out.
We did this because we felt like it was the right thing to do.
And somebody in the discord said this today morning.
And I swear to God, like sometimes when I just hear someone say a bar, I can't like get it out of my head.
And he just came in.
He was like, Frank, you're a bozo.
I'm like, why?
He's like, Rolex sells watches for $9,000, knowing that they're going to resell for $15,000.
And by the way, a lot of people have been debating about the fucking prices, whatever.
That's not the point.
And you can replace that with Supreme because Supreme retails for $40.
But the reason why a T-shirt will retail for $40.
But the reason why everyone keeps coming back to Supreme and wants to keep buying things from Supreme is because you know that they're not capturing max value on that initial sale.
They're leaving it to their fans to go resell them and add a premium.
And so when I thought about it, I was like, dude, maybe we shouldn't do this to parity at the floor.
And Bitcoin pumped, so it was a double win because if you just listen to us and you load it up on Bitcoin, you're up.
Like from the first time, you're up like 30%, you know, from the fucking orange squares.
So I just like delivering wins to our community.
And man, like tonight is a fucking win and it's going to keep the momentum is going to keep growing.
And everyone that just acts like they know who we are on the timeline, on Twitter, whatever it is, they have no idea what the fuck they're talking about.
We would have definitely sold out at whatever price that we set this thing at.
And we did this for the community.
And I'm hyped that everyone got some fucking extra Bitcoin in their wallet and hopefully got an order on the God.
And if not, they're up 20%.
I don't know how you thought that they'll figure out a way.
They will 100% figure out a way, but I am, I'm really, really happy for the community today and proud of us for making that decision, regardless of whatever, whatever anybody else says.
Yo, Frank, just put a collection offer for me right now.
I'm 0.5 collection off for 0.5.
Anybody in here?
You want to?
Oh, my God.
You want to?
Look at the low wall, man.
Anybody in here wants to?
I don't know if you're getting that.
I don't know if you're getting that.
Add me too.
Put it at me too.
Put it at 0.5.
For real, guys.
You guys are spending $3,000 on gas.
You're telling me.
Collection offer.
Good luck.
Good luck.
I wish you luck.
I want to see you in the community.
Yeah, for real.
Shortly after the announcement, we'll open up the spreadsheet so you guys can fill out the tickets.
Everything will be recorded in the spreadsheet, publicly available in the channels.
Hit up the Discord.
Yeah, but Trevor, you got it noted.
0.5 Bitcoin is like, it's the old days.
It's like when they used to, in commodities, when they used to yell it in open pits.
It's like, me and Trevor will be on voice chats all night.
We'll probably be in the DDAO voice chat.
Come through.
If you want to listen to us, we'll probably just be doing it in there anyway.
But yeah, it'll be a fun night.
Caffeine's ready.
Uber Eats ready.
Let's go.
Okay.
I don't know.
I'm waiting for these winners.
I'm nervous.
Yeah, me too.
Me too.
Trust me, bro.
So, let's see.
I think, I mean, just a fun statistic update.
It looks like there was 749 potential bids within the first block.
So, and that's not even counting the ones that have come out after.
And like, we're, again, indexing for that too.
So, holy fuck.
That's just people that squeezed it in the first block.
So, again, looking forward to seeing the winners list.
I'm just giving you guys the live updates here.
But who's, like, really wants to talk here?
Because I lost track of the hands.
Go for it.
All right, yo.
I'll hop in.
Really curious.
This was obviously fucking incredible.
Probably the coolest mint I've ever been a part of.
How is it working with, is it exactly like timestamp?
Like the first, like you keep saying, the first 200 or the first two minutes?
Or, like, we found this position thing, which seems to be like sort of an average or like a combined, like, weighted thing between the fee and the time that you sent it.
Like, I don't know if Trevor knows anything about that.
Yeah, I mean, honestly, this is one of those things where I'm going to struggle to speculate on.
So, I'm pulling the Bozo card here.
Luxor Mining and their team are grinding on this.
Like, I'm watching the Discord.
I'm here to just be the Bozo to give live updates here.
Just a pretty face.
And so, I honestly have a good answer for you on the timing stuff.
I know that they scoped this out for, like, the last week.
Two weeks ago was when we started talking about this.
But, like, they've been scoping it out pretty hard.
And I think it's done in a way that is, I think it is based on first.
Like, the goal for them is to, like, achieve first come, first serve on chain.
And so, we're just working that through right now.
And I'm sure, like, you know, Nick from Luxor will come up after this.
And at some point tonight, they're working pretty hard and answer all the more technical questions here.
But, man, I can't pretend to know.
I don't want to be one of those guys that's like, hmm, I think it's this.
You're a fucking bozo.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, I can break it down real quick.
I mean, it's just when you send the transaction, you're sending it from a node, like, across the network.
And it's propagating.
So, it's, like, as soon as Luxor mining, I mean, they run a mining company that picks up transactions and shows people how to mine them.
So, it's, like, as soon as it propagates the network from, like, one node to the other and reaches their node, they'll, like, just timestamp it.
Well, because I got a question about that.
It's pretty interesting.
Like, I was an idiot.
I used a hardware wallet.
It was fucking fine all day.
And then as soon as the Mint link went live, it somehow disconnected.
So, I had to reconnect it, blah, blah, blah, all that shit.
So, it cost me, like, two minutes.
I'm an idiot.
But, like, average Mikey, he sent, like, he's got the fastest fingers.
He was in it, like, 40 seconds.
Dude, you're in, like, a fucking gutter right now, bro.
It's so bad.
It's so bad.
I can't.
Who is that?
Did you hear that?
I muted everyone.
Are you outside, Frank?
No, I'm indoors as absolute fuck.
I don't know where that was coming from.
That was wild.
No, it's me.
I'm at the gym, dude.
I'm in this fucking big room.
Got it.
Well, I mean, I tried to mute you, and it didn't work.
So, I mean, do you guys still hear it?
This is wild.
Yeah, yeah.
You got static, bro.
I got to, like, remove you, bro.
That's, like, one of our whales, like, goaded, but, bro, like, can't compromise the listening
experience here.
Is it still going?
Yeah, dude.
You got static, man.
How?
Where is that coming from?
Breaking fucking Twitter spaces, or what?
No, it sounds like a jungle.
It's kind of relaxing.
It's a waterfall.
What is going on, dude?
I don't get it at all.
Is it Sean?
I think, like, it's Sean.
Unmute it.
Mute their mic.
Yeah, it's Sean.
Bro.
Good fight, though, Sean.
Sorry, Hasselhoff.
My bad, bro.
My bad, dude.
I didn't mean to discriminate there.
Sean was out here with his youth just looking really unsuspecting.
But, dude, I mean, let's keep it going.
I think we heard Hasselhoff.
Sounds like he got in two minutes late.
That's tough.
So, we'll see what happens.
Dude, maybe, like, Satoshi's on your side here.
We'll see.
Okay.
Let's keep it going.
Who else wants to say something?
I, again, I'm just, let me check the Discord here.
We're, oh, wow.
Fuck.
Okay.
So, it sounds like now they got to the second block and there's 1,818 invoices that they're
kind of sorting through right now.
So, yeah.
We're being really thorough here.
But, holy fuck.
This is bigger than I thought.
I mean, it looks like most of the people that signed up, like, pre-registered, as I was tweeting
throughout the day, participated.
And that's why when I was tweeting the signups, what I think most people didn't know that didn't
give a shit about the Mint was, like, you had to have a valid ordinals address and a valid,
like, Bitcoin address.
And we were tracking and checking that in order to even be counted as a signup.
And so, that's what that 2,200 number I tweeted earlier today was about.
So, yeah.
It looks like within the first two blocks, I mean, we're at, like, an 80% participation
rate on this Mint, then.
1,818 invoices piping through right now.
Holy fuck.
So, I'm getting the data.
You know, this is a live update.
It's number one on Bitcoin.
Don't even got to say the name.
You already know it's DGod's.
Wizards taking showers.
Who?
I don't even know about them.
So, yeah.
Naveen.
I mean, you came up here.
We haven't.
What's going on?
Let's talk.
Frank, I just wanted to come up and give you your flowers, brother.
I participated.
I don't know if I'm a winner.
We'll soon find out when you post the winner's list.
I'm anxiously waiting like everyone else here.
This is the first time that I've participated in one of your guys' and your team's experiences.
I must say the site was dope.
It gave me a lot of, you know, like, old school, like, Windows 3.1 kind of vibes, which
I really appreciated because I'm old as fuck.
And I think, like, just the whole thing, like, just the storytelling, the attention to detail.
You know, there's the intention.
You know, a lot of intentionality in this drop.
And I think it speaks volumes.
I think it speaks volumes for you and your team and the community.
You've worked so fucking hard to build, everyone here in this room.
So, you know, my fingers are crossed.
Hopefully, I got in on time.
I was trying to be as quick as I could.
You know, I used a software wallet, like, I used a, you know, just so I could be extra
fast.
Like, I moved out of hardware just because I knew that speed was important, even though
it compromises security.
And, yeah, dude, spending those, like, hard-earned Bitcoins, you know, like, over the years, you
know, like, we've always been taught in Bitcoin culture.
You know, you just hoddle, you know, just hoddle, you know, my co-founder of my company
is Fluffy Pony, and he's an old-school Bitcoiner and Monero guy.
And, you know, so I've learned from him over the years.
So that's all I got to say, brother.
Dude, keep it up.
So proud of you.
So proud of the team.
And really looking forward to seeing who got these amazing, amazing D-Gods.
Thank you so much, man.
That means a lot coming from you, especially to being a really big fan of everything you're
doing, too.
I think I do want to talk, that's an interesting topic also to talk about, like, the hoddle
culture in Bitcoin, because I feel the same way.
I mean, that's how I got started in this space, right?
Like, you don't give anyone your fucking Bitcoin.
You don't do anything with your Bitcoin.
That's, like, yours.
That's sovereign, you know, sovereign fucking property, like, all this stuff.
And I take that really seriously.
And that's also part of the reason why we lowered the price today, stuff like that, where, you
know, for me, I just don't think that Bitcoin D-Gods are going to be successful.
Buy, like, some crazy hype marketing stuff, you know, post-mint.
It's not going to be, like, you know, catalyst like you see on ETH.
Again, I think it's about building a really, really strong, tight-knit membership group
where everyone just values, you know, being in that membership group so much that obviously,
like, price and number and all that stuff is going to go up.
But I think that is actually what makes these Bitcoin D-Gods unique.
And that's the lane that we're going to take it in.
Because, yeah, like, you don't, it's not, it's not cool in Bitcoin culture to be out
here shilling your fucking bags all day, trying to get people to give you their hard-earned
Bitcoin.
And that's not going to be the vibe.
That's why I think even this trading desk stuff is kind of fun.
Because it's, like, such a person-to-person interaction.
And I think that's closer to what the culture is going to support more than anything.
So, yeah, man, it means a lot.
And I resonate with what you're saying because, yeah, dude, your Bitcoin is your fucking Bitcoin
like that.
And I feel that way.
And I've been kind of shilling Bitcoin to my community for over a year now, you know,
with the Bitcoin mask.
I've been talking about it and all this stuff because I love NFTs.
I love crypto.
But nothing compares to holding that fucking ledger in my hand with Bitcoin in it.
And I just know that's mine.
Like, I mean, it's just, dude, that feeling, it's different and it's real.
And even now with all this stuff happening with the banks and all this, like, it's just
really, it's just raw as fuck.
Like, it's real.
Like, Bitcoin is king.
Like, nothing is fucking with Bitcoin.
And I love it, man.
So, just super high to have a fucking collection on this chain and be able to grow this over
the years.
So, yeah.
Well, I think it's really interesting because you see how hard people work to get to their
first full Bitcoin, you know?
I mean, Bitcoin is prized, you know, for a reason and rightfully so.
But one thing I do think is very interesting, if you go back in time to, like, counterparty
culture, you know, counterparty was a very special time, you know, when, you know, that
was sort of like a thing that people really excited about in that moment.
And, you know, I kind of see some elements of that in Ordinal's culture.
And personally, that's like amazing.
You know, that's like an amazing thing from my point of view.
So, anyway, I'll let others speak.
And thanks for having me.
And congrats again, brother.
Dude, I gotta tell.
You said the first Bitcoin thing.
I have to tell my first Bitcoin story because, dude, fuck, I'm getting, like, emotional thinking
about it.
I mean, I was super late to the game.
I was 20-20.
The way I found out about, I'm not found, I knew what Bitcoin was, but what got me to buy
my first Bitcoin was, like, July or August 2020.
And it was Michael Saylor, funny enough.
And it wasn't even, like, it wasn't actually, like, the fact that he bought it.
I think I watched a YouTube interview that was going kind of viral.
And I heard him talk about Bitcoin.
I was like, fuck, like, this makes a lot of sense.
Like, everything this motherfucker is saying is making a lot of sense.
And then I read the Bitcoin white paper.
And from that moment on, dude, I was just, like, in love.
Like, it was so cool to read the white paper because, for me, I was, like, thinking it's
going to be all about economics and tokenomics.
And, like, there's no mention of 21 million in the white paper.
Like, that's stuff they talk about on the blog.
That's stuff in the code.
But that's not in the white paper.
The white paper is actually just this idea of, like, how do you solve this double spend
problem?
And I was like, fuck, it's such an elegant solution to a problem that you don't even realize
is the actual thing that is why crypto is valuable.
Like, how do you make digital money?
Well, you have to make it verifiable.
How do you make it verifiable?
Well, you have to have thousands of people verifying every single transaction and sharing
a ledger across the world.
So that clicked for me.
And then I started my pursuit towards getting a Bitcoin.
I was super broke at the time.
I left my startup and was working, like, a growth job at one of these, you know, one of
these Silicon Valley startups and, you know, junior there because I was, I think, 20 at
the time.
And I was just not making enough money because Bitcoin kept pumping.
I was like, fuck me.
Like, I got to 0.4 when Bitcoin was at 18.
And then Elon bought and it started just skyrocketing.
I was like, God fucking damn it.
I'm not going to get to a whole Bitcoin.
And then I started taking on more jobs.
So I made this website, bitcoinershit.com that went super viral on Bitcoin Twitter.
And then when that website went viral, I had, like, Swan Bitcoin hit me up and FoldApp,
which is, like, a really cool debit card.
And super close with some of the guys at FoldApp still to this day.
And I started just working on the side, making, like, you know, doing funnel work and, like,
growth work for a lot of these different Bitcoin startups.
And so now, and that was, like, on the low key.
I didn't tell my main job that I was doing that because it was all remote work.
And so then instead of getting, like, six grand a month, I was getting, like, 10 grand
and then 20 grand.
And I was just doing all these jobs.
I ended up working, like, four or five jobs at the same time.
And none of them knew about each other.
And it was actually on my birthday, which was kind of, like, the fucking top.
So fuck me.
I bought a lot of Bitcoin over, like, 60K.
But, like, in April, I think I hit my first Bitcoin and, dude, that day, like, fuck.
It was crazy.
So that was 2021.
Dude, yeah.
There's nothing like it, man.
WholeCoinClub.
It used to be such a meme with my friends, too.
It was, like, WholeCoinClub, bro.
I'm not talking to no half-coiners.
Like, you know, you're, like, you know, broke boys.
Once we hit that WholeCoinClub.
So fuck, dude.
It's kind of crazy, man.
That's crazy you brought up the first Bitcoin story.
I don't know if I've ever shared that.
But, yeah, that first Bitcoin story is, I think, impactful for a lot of people.
And that was mine.
That was amazing.
Thanks for sharing that, brother.
Dude, thank you, man, for bringing it up, dude.
Crazy fucking days.
Life is so full circle.
But let's keep going to the hands.
Who's been up here?
I think Habibi and then Trevor.
And then we'll hit Adam, Blue, Jarvis, Ben.
Yeah, what's up?
Thank you for having me.
What a legendary day.
I unfortunately missed out.
But still, literally, DGod's now in Bitcoin history.
Such an amazing day.
Beautiful stuff.
And honestly, I want to see that 3.33 megabyte block as its own inscription at this point.
Because I would definitely mint that.
Dude, that's crazy, bro.
Like, that was poetic, man.
You got to understand, man.
And, yeah.
So, again, right now, by the way, people are just coming in.
Still waiting on updates on the winners list.
All the servers were fucking broken.
The thing sold out in, like, two minutes.
But then people kept ramming it.
And we're just waiting right now to get confirmation on, like, these last few transactions.
I'm looking at the Discord chat with all the Gigabrains right now.
So, we're waiting for these last few transactions to clear.
Because they put really low fees.
And so, they're still not confirmed.
Once they confirm, we'll have a full refund list.
And then once we post the winners list, we'll start distributing the refunds immediately.
But you got to just do both of them.
We got to just do both of them at the same time, the way we set it up.
So, sorry, guys, again for the wait.
I'm excited.
And hopefully, this is entertaining enough to keep people from fucking losing their minds and flooring all their shit.
Let's see.
Trevor, go for it.
Yeah, guys.
I just, like, there's so many people in this room.
I just want to, like, point out, like, the moment that we're sharing right now.
Like, as Frank said so many good things about Bitcoin.
Like, Bitcoin has no leader.
It's a technology more powerful than countries.
That's truly of the people.
And we did three things tonight.
We made Bitcoin more valuable.
We inscribed on a Satoshi a valuable work of art that people are going to, you know, look at for almost forever, right, in the future.
And whenever you buy an ordinal, if you find it valuable, you're putting more value on Bitcoin.
You're making Bitcoin more valuable, right?
We saw tons of new fees.
We got 3.5 BTC in fees in that block compared to a normal 0.3 BTC, which means that we're making Bitcoin more secure.
Right.
We're adding to the security budget of Bitcoin, which is going to be important when the Coinbase reward runs out, that there is a sustainable market of fees on Bitcoins that people are going to mine and continue to secure the network.
And finally, we made Bitcoin closer and more useful as a medium of exchange.
We're actually using Bitcoin, denominating things in Bitcoin and buying things with Bitcoin, making it a medium of exchange.
And so, guys, like, it's amazing.
Every time you're buying an ordinal, we're making Bitcoin more valuable, more secure and a better medium of exchange.
And we started that tonight.
Like, what the fuck is going on?
Here, here, here, here, here.
Bro, I'm going to layer on that, man, Trevor.
I think it's, you know, we've had a ton of conversations over the last month on Twitter spaces talking about this kind of new Bitcoin culture, right?
What are the new Bitcoin maxis?
And I think the new Bitcoin maxis are being born on events like this tonight, right?
We're taking that old kind of stodgy Bitcoin never moves to something that's flexible.
And I'll just give you one story.
I had ETH Wales hitting me up.
Hey, man, could you could you bid on it for me?
I don't even know what to do.
I don't I'm not sure how to, you know, I don't even have fucking Bitcoin.
And I was like, dude, no, look, here's X first, man.
Wallet's built.
It's fucking easy.
It'll take you 30 seconds.
You'll know it.
It's intuitive.
It's easy.
And dude, that shit's all happened in the last six weeks.
Like, this is it, man.
You've got to build stuff that people can use.
And this project tonight, super successful.
Like, this is building a new culture for Bitcoin, which is amazing.
Frank, congrats on it, man.
Big, big, big win tonight.
I will say I love that you guys are running the trading desk old school style in the discord.
You know me.
I'm with Emblem Vault.
If any of y'all want to sell on ETH, bro, there's a lot of people on ETH waiting to buy these babies.
So, no, they got to come to us, bro.
I'm not going to do whatever they want.
It's Bitcoin.
It's a self-sovereign individual.
But it would kill me.
I'm not going to lie.
Bro, let's say you want to make a little wager on where I'm going for a bit, bro, before you eat that effort.
If it wasn't for Emblem Vault, I don't know if Bitcoin inscriptions would be where they're at today.
Like, let's make that very clear.
They've brought probably a majority, honestly, of the liquidity on the Bitcoin, especially with these inscriptions.
So, mad respect what you guys are doing.
But, bro, you got to let us cook with this trading next project.
I know, man.
You guys are going to be fine.
There'll be plenty.
It's fun to trade.
But it's going to be a small โ I mean, you know, most people just aren't going to go into discord to trade.
That's just the way it is, right?
So, there will be a kind of โ
Yeah, I'm in there.
I'm in there, Adam.
I know you are.
0.5 BTC collection offer, guys.
So, you can grab the first one, man.
It comes up, right?
I'm actually starting to think if, like, fudding right now is the smart move.
Like, if you're doing the game theory right now in your head, like, we should be fudding this, guys.
Come on.
No, but the problem, Trevor, with D-Gods is, like, whenever you fud it, it just keeps going up.
It's actually mad annoying, bro.
So, like, you got to actually, like, be super nice, and that's the only time when things really go poorly.
But I agree with you, Adam.
I don't think most people are going to use spreadsheets.
But, again, it's only $535.
No, I think what you'll see is going to happen, Frank, is you'll see โ you'll get a lot of trading in the Discord for sure.
But then a couple people will put it on OpenSea, and those will sell.
And those will sell.
Yeah.
And then you'll get this differentiating in price, and then you'll finally get a balance in price where they'll meet.
But that can take, you know, a few weeks to a month to kind of even out.
And so there'll be opportunities, you know, for the first movers onto ETH.
So anybody who needs help, DM me.
I can help you get set up in Emblem Vault or whatever.
Happy to help, man.
But congrats on tonight, man.
Big win for you guys.
Appreciate you, man.
Be careful with those โ
No, dude.
I mean, yeah, dude.
It's hard because ETH is such a monster, dude.
Like, it's incredible.
And I think especially over these last few weeks, months, like, it just made it very clear why people use ETH.
Like, the value of the smart contracts.
And it's definitely mad annoying sometimes to use Bitcoin, et cetera.
But, yeah, bro.
I don't know.
No, it's getting easier, right?
I mean, we'll see.
We've seen the great improvement even in the last month, man.
I mean, it's incredible the level of effort that guys have put in, like, Jan down there with experts and stuff, just making this shit so much better.
But, dude, ETH is good, man.
ETH is good, right?
ETH is great.
ETH is great.
Yeah, man, we love ETH.
We'll be back by .ETH pretty soon.
I think people saw my tweet.
You know, I want to get, like, an ape.
I want to get a punk.
I want to get in on that fucking squad because we're about to be there.
So, I'm excited.
But that being said, look, I'll say this.
All I ask is how do you get the โ how do we do it on Emblem?
But it's denominated at least WBTC because, like, it killed me, bro.
Bro, just get OpenSea to change, right?
Good luck with that, bro.
No, no, I'm on it.
I'm on it.
Trust, trust.
Don't worry.
Don't worry.
I'm making some calls tonight.
Let's go.
So, good to know.
Let's keep it going.
Ben, I think, and Jarvis in the blue.
Yo, yo, yo.
What's good, guys?
Yo, this is fucking dope, fam.
Congratulations to every fucking body, yo.
Bro, this was super crazy, fam.
And, yo, like, I just want to say that we made fucking history today, bro.
And I know I didn't get, like, a Bitcoin D-God, yo.
But, yo, today I love my USPFP.
But I'm about to also say fucking to my Twitter blue checkmark because I got to come up with a PSP that will match what lies ahead for us.
Because for us right now in our community, it's demon time.
We're about to fucking take over everything on Bitcoin, on Ethereum.
I want us to go fucking crazy, yo.
And then, dude, let's talk Utes, too.
I mean, like, I know that that's something that hasn't come up a lot.
Here's my line on Utes that I say all the time.
I'm like, dude, when D-God season starts and people are seeing it now, like, and this is why it's a meme in the D-God community.
Because what D-God season is best defined as is, like, one crazy thing happens for D-Gods and the next crazy thing happens, like, way before you think it's going to happen.
It's just, like, lining up a lot of momentum all together.
And that's kind of the definition of D-God season.
And when it starts, it always just goes crazy.
And that's why so many people don't believe, you know, like, they don't even know about D-Gods.
They don't believe in, like, how strong this community is.
And I get it.
I understand why.
But at the same time, we're in full-blown D-God season coming up right now.
And so after that, I think it's going to be Utes season.
And, like, obviously, like, there was a point in time where we were definitely way more focused on Utes.
And I think right now the focus is for sure 100% on D-Gods.
But post-migration, I think you're going to see us do a lot more that is going to be really fun.
Utes season two is going to be fucking electric.
And definitely nobody's expecting it.
Because everyone knows Polygon, we're going to do stuff with the big brands.
There's going to be collabs and stuff like that.
But me and Johnny are cooking on some of this, you know, on some of this Utes season two stuff.
And so just excited to bring, like, real emotion and excitement and a stronger community to Utes.
Because I just think it's a sleeping giant, man.
And I get why some Utes holders are just like, dude, everything's about D-Gods.
But I'm like, bro, I can't stop it, bro.
You're seeing this right now.
You can't stop the D-Gods community.
For real, bro.
Like, yo, I know you're cooking up something super crazy for Utes as well.
But, yo, right now it's D-Gods season, bro.
And let's fucking go, bro.
I want us to become the fucking number one PFP on Bitcoin blockchain.
And I know we're fucking going crazy on it to you.
Oh, it's the night.
Let's make it happen.
Dude, night is young.
Still waiting on these winners.
Let's fucking go, bro.
It looks like the devs have hopped in a cold, which is like a good sign.
I see Discord RTC is giving me trouble.
Same.
Let's hop on call.
Okay.
That's that dev talk.
You know what I mean?
That's that gigabrain talk right there.
So, they're on it.
All right.
I was like, yeah, guys, sorry about having to wait here.
It was cool because earlier with the Mint, it was actually Satoshi that was delaying and not us.
Some of those fucking blocks were taking a minute leading up to the Mint, bro.
I think there was one that was like 16, 17 minutes.
I was like, this is the fucking longest block of all time.
So, you know, excited here.
But, yeah, night is young.
And I am not going to sleep tonight until we get these fucking OTC guys going, which involves a lot of steps before that.
So, yep, just excited.
We were almost going to do this later at night, too.
Thank fucking God we didn't because, you know, these guys have been cranking on this.
And, man, I'm going to do the biggest thank you thread to Lux or Mining and their whole team after this because, holy fuck, like, they're just so good at what they do.
And they thought through a lot of this stuff and they're going through it now.
And I just want to work on something with them again in the future because they're so great to work with.
So, yeah, it's always nice when you have really, really strong people that you're working with because it just raises the bar for everybody.
Awesome.
Jarvis, I know your hand is fucking aching right now.
And then we got blue.
Holy, man, that was a workout.
I'm not even going to lie.
Anyway, I wanted to comment on the site and just say, like, I think you guys did a really good job with capturing that early Windows, early Internet, early Bitcoin vibe.
So that was awesome to see.
Truth be told, I was a little bit skeptical about the bin price, but it's awesome to see that you guys sold out and how happy people are.
Sure, you've definitely done a better job in comparison to other big brands that have tried this Ordinals Mint.
So that's awesome to see.
Congrats to all the people that got one.
Definitely all the Bitcoin D-Gods.
And just want to say congrats to the team and then even all the D-Gods and Utes holders.
You guys should all be, like, in a sense, proud of this, right?
Because right now you have even me, someone who didn't believe in you guys in the beginning, talking about you and everyone's eyes are on you guys.
So congrats.
It's awesome to see.
Thank you so much, man.
And honestly, I'm not going to lie.
I'll just say it.
It's loose.
We're in, like, the fucking, you know, waiting hours right now.
They're on the call.
Dude, when I saw, like, we obviously inscribed pretty early on under 100K Inscription Club.
Let's fucking go, even though inscription numbers don't matter unless it's the D-Gods inscription numbers.
Those definitely matter because they're under 100K.
But, you know, when we did it, at first, my whole thinking was we just want to get this real estate and we're going to figure out the right way to do it.
So nothing hyped me up more than seeing, like, Yuga hop on because I was like, we definitely don't want to front run Yuga because I want to see how they're going to do it.
And I just want to do it better because, to me, Bitcoin feels like more like the home court advantage here, if anything, right?
And so I was like, I can't take the L on fucking Bitcoin right now.
And so, yeah, we've just been really analyzing a lot of that stuff closely.
And that's why people are really skeptical.
Got a lot of bored apes in my replies saying, oh, the flat mint price, your cash grabber, why don't you do the auction, whatever?
Well, this is why because now there's actual excitement after the mint.
Like, that's so important, you know, like you need to have excitement after the actual mint itself.
And, yeah, man, just that is something that's really exciting to me and glad to see this mechanism play out.
And part of the thesis was, I'll tell you this, I didn't think it would go this crazy, like 3.5 fucking Bitcoin on fees.
I didn't think it would go that nuts.
But this is something that, you know, when people wake up tomorrow, people start to process it.
It's going to be a narrative.
And you tell me, Trevor, if I'm off base here, it's going to be a narrative in the Bitcoin community.
I mean, we just 10x the basic fees, right?
Like, that's fucking nuts.
And I think, yeah, I think you're going to see more people try to do something like this.
And if we're the first to do it, that is just really good for the provenance of our hold for our holders and for the Bitcoin D gods, because it seems like a no brainer, logical conclusion.
But when you're this early to stuff, being using common sense sometimes pays off really, really well.
Yeah.
And just to comment to like, you guys are definitely getting a better market reaction, even from people outside of your own holders.
So, I don't know, there's your flowers again.
You guys did a good job rolling it out.
And I don't know, people weren't too happy with the fixed price, I guess.
But then again, it's set.
There's no speculation.
You're not getting screwed on a last block or something like that, right?
So, I think you guys did a good job.
And yeah, just once again, congrats.
Thank you so much, man.
Really, really appreciate it.
And shout out to the Giga Chaz that paid like fucking 300,000 sats on some of these to get there.
I really hope they get it.
I really, really hope they get it.
I hope they get a rare one.
It's going to be random.
And I don't know if they're going to get it.
But that's my honest personal opinion here.
Yo, 10 million sats was the highest, dude.
Not 300k, bro.
Ridiculous.
Off by a multiple there, dude.
What's the mining company that won it?
It was Ant Miner or something?
Or was it Ant Mane?
Do you know what it was, Trev?
Yo, let me check one second.
I think it's Ant.
I think it was Ant.
Yeah, Ant, bro.
They need to cut us a check on God, bro.
Like, goddamn, dude.
These are running the fuck up.
The block is full of just red dots.
So, yeah.
If you guys have the contact info for them, I'll happily take it.
We cut them in price, so maybe they make up the difference.
But, yeah, dude.
Hyped on it.
Let's keep it going.
Who hasn't gotten a chance?
Pat, what's up, man?
Oh, Blue.
Did Blue just go?
Fuck.
It's been one of the time.
Nah, I'm here.
I'm here.
I'm here.
I'm here.
What's your name?
Yo, I just want to say, today's was wild.
Like, we wake up this morning.
Everyone was like, I should have countdown.
Da-da-da-da-da-da.
People were, like, submitting wallets.
And, like, we spun up, like, the BTC chat and, like, the Nouns Telly.
And, like, leading up to the Mint, I know you, like, jumped in, like, towards the end.
But it was wild, bro.
Everyone was just, like, scared to the stations.
Like, let's get.
Everyone was hyped.
Like, I don't own a D-Gord.
I didn't even try to go for a BTC D-Gord.
I was just here for the ride.
And it was so good.
Like, it's 4 a.m.
I'm awake just waiting for the flipping trade.
And just because I want to see it.
But, like, this shit, yeah, it was great.
I just want to say, like, congratulations.
I think the whole launch was incredible.
It was so smooth.
Like, from Wiseau, he wouldn't even have issues like that.
And it's, like, even for the merch, I don't think you guys get credit for the merch.
But it was, like, you guys really went all in.
Because you even brought, like, the Windows experience for, like, people that wanted to buy merch.
And I think that was, like, really special.
It was, like, you didn't half-ass the experience.
Like, it was just lit.
But I just want to say, yeah, man, great time.
Great flipping time.
And, dude, it means a lot that you're saying that.
Because I know when we were leading up to this, it came off maybe a little bit touchy-feely, like, emotional or whatever it is.
But I do think there was something that was so magical in the early days.
They got a lot of us hooked into NFTs with these, like, hyped mints.
You don't know if you're going to get it.
We're going to send these inscriptions out tonight.
Everyone's getting random ones.
Some dude's going to get a crazy grail.
And, like, that story has basically been erased out of NFTs for a long time now.
And so looking at Bitcoin, I know we talked a lot with Trevor, but also especially with Nick from Luxor Mining,
where it seemed a little bit like a crazier idea to try to do something like this public mint.
When, you know, everyone was like, oh, you could set the standard.
This is how it's supposed to be.
We looked at it.
And, man, we just wanted to make something that was exciting.
And, dude, it means the fucking world to me that you had a good time today.
Because I say this, and people that are not into NFTs or don't hold on some of these NFTs, like, don't get it.
But emotional utility and just, like, creating shared experiences that everyone's going to remember.
Dude, nothing compares to that.
Like, money can't even buy that shit, you know, at the end of the day.
Like, the dead gods reveal.
The dead gods mint.
Like, these are things and stories that people still talk about today.
UTLIS is things that people still talk about today.
And it's been a long time since then.
And if we can create that much of an impact on somebody's, like, enjoyment, fun, and, like, in their core memories.
I mean, holy fuck, dude.
I don't know how you compete with that.
I really don't.
In terms of utility for an NFT, I don't think there's anything out there that can compete.
So, Paz, go for it.
No, yeah.
I just wanted to give you guys your flowers, too, man.
From the marketing and the aesthetics.
Like, from the start, being, like, retro and very Bitcoin-focused.
To, like, the mint process itself.
I felt like this was way more positively received than other projects.
And, yeah, you guys killed it.
Congrats.
Thank you, man.
And tell us more about your project, too.
I mean, look, early days.
Usually on, like, ETH or SOUL, I'm like, nobody talks about their own project or whatever, you know, because people are tired of it.
But I think everyone's curious in this audience about Ordinals and want to know about projects.
So, you know, tell us more about it.
Keep it fun.
Make it fun.
Make it exciting, though, for sure.
Yeah, I'll try to give a quick overview, but I'm the founder of Ordinals Faces.
It's, like, a 50-supply art collection.
We were inscribed before, like, 5K inscriptions.
But, yeah, I'm part of the Ordinals team.
Just, you know, just trying to put out art and stuff.
We're very art-focused.
And, yeah, that's pretty much it.
Yeah, nothing much to say about that.
Oh, you're part of the Ordinals team.
No way.
Sorry?
Dude, so you think Casey's going to shit on us for this one?
Or is it going to be positive?
Yeah, this dude was with Casey, like, two weeks before anyone knew anything about Ordinals.
Like, yeah, Paz definitely is guys here.
Like, put the good word in to Casey about you guys, Paz.
Come on.
Yeah, I'll mention you guys for sure.
Oh, yeah, I guess to give some context, yeah, I was someone who kind of, like, helped out, like, within the early community to help set up people.
So, it's been a crazy journey since the start.
And, yeah, it was cool watching this whole experience.
So, yeah, thanks for that.
Paz, this is so good for Ordinals, man.
This is so good for Ordinals.
People having a great experience with Bitcoin, having memories with Bitcoin, and, like, onboarding more people to Bitcoin.
This is amazing for Ordinals, guys.
So, like, Frank, hats off, man, for the full experience.
You know, people have seen what the A-class, the A-plus tier looks like on Bitcoin now.
And I think we're going to see more people trying to rise to this level of execution in the future.
So, that's amazing for Ordinals.
Let's go.
I have some good news, too.
Looks like we're in the โ by the way, usually I get โ whenever I say we're in the final inning of getting this, like, something out,
so something happens and it ends up taking, like, another out.
Do you guys know about this?
For sure.
I'll be in the Discord.
I'll say, guys, 10 minutes away.
And then some shit happens.
I'm like, fuck.
Why did I say 10 minutes away?
Everyone's spamming me.
And now it's going to be, like, 30 minutes away.
But I can't help myself.
You can't teach an old dog new tricks in time.
So, it looks like we are โ winner's list might be up in a few.
So, let's see.
Holy fuck.
Hey, Frank, one question.
That's going to be crazy.
I got to get off the spaces for that because, I mean, I got to deal with some fun potentially.
I got to deal with ZK potentially saying we're all going to zero and got to be retweeting all the positive people.
So, yeah, like, it's about to get intense once that winner's list goes up.
So, we'll end the space literally when that happens.
So, hyped.
Bro, I'm going to go crazy if I'm not on that fucking list, Frank.
Yo, where in the Discord is the channel for the trading?
So, once we post the winner's list โ because we have a whole announcement we're working on, like, with all the pretty graphics, you know, all that shit, like, how we do it, with the explanation around how the trading desk works.
So, I don't want to butcher it, and we'll drop all the information.
But I think, one, let's just celebrate the winners.
Let's, like, you know, get all the FUD out of the way, send them out, and then we'll post the trading thing.
So, that way, it's just, like, a clean sequence.
And, like I said, if you're not in America, congratulations, because your day is just getting started.
If you are in America, dude, go puff that shit, Z7-Eleven, because it's going to be fun, man.
We'll do more spaces tonight.
It's going to be electric.
I can't wait to see the first sale.
I cannot wait to see the first fucking sale.
That's going to be crazy.
So, yeah, hyped on it.
Awesome.
Yo, somebody take my offer.
Someone take my offer.
Make the first sale right here.
Yo, guys, the floor is at 33 Bitcoin.
No, it's crazy.
I can't wait to see that 0.5.
The floor is 33 Bitcoin.
That's the bid right now.
Collection floor.
If anyone wants to go 33.1, and then we got 66 for a hell background.
But spreadsheets will go live after everything's all settled.
And, yeah, stay tuned for the announcements.
Yeah, it's just 33 Bitcoin, bro.
It's not like it's, like, you know, 1,000 ETH or whatever.
Anything below 30 is fun.
Let's go to NFC.
Let's go to NFC, head.
And then we'll keep going from there.
Habibi, Frank, man, congratulations.
I'm so happy.
I don't know why I didn't meant anything, but the energy, the excitement, the community
just proved to the world that we are a legit, true D-God community.
And I'm so happy.
I'm so proud of everyone here.
I just wanted to say that, Frank, just keep the momentum.
Don't stop.
This is your fucking comfort zone.
Bitcoin is the fucking coin that you just proved to the world that you can fucking 10x it
in any shit you touch, man.
You are a fucking legend.
Believe that.
Work on that.
And everyone saw that.
So fuck Hugo Labs.
Fuck all the fucking monkeys.
Yo, yo, yo, yo.
Just let's fucking go, man.
I'm a big Hugo fan.
I just think...
Man, fuck being humble.
It's a fucking win.
It's a fucking win.
You said, let's go to war.
Man, we are gonna fucking burn everyone.
Let's fucking go.
Dude, appreciate you, bro.
I agree with a lot of what you said.
Disagree with some key parts.
But look, man, I think a lot of people want to little bro us at the end of the day.
Like, yo, from Solana, a bunch of pours.
You saw a lot of people on the timeline yesterday.
Oh, I didn't even know if he got cost that much.
Whatever.
It's like, dude, we're trying to be the biggest project in the world.
I don't care if it's Hugo, whatever the fuck it is.
Like, we're just on our path.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Like, and so I'm just excited.
And I think that's what...
If you're listening to this and you're like, dude, fuck these guys, frat bros, whatever it is.
At the end of the day, we just, we show up every fucking day.
I showed up every day for the last year and a half working really hard and we have ambitious goals.
And if you're going to be mad at that, fine.
But like, fuck, man.
I mean, I'm just excited.
And Bitcoin is something that's going to be a lot of fun.
You don't need to say it.
We will say it, Habibi Frank.
You don't need to say everything.
We'll do everything.
You just start the spark and we just going to fucking eat anything that walks and lives in front of us.
Let's fucking go.
Let's fucking go.
Oh, man, dude.
You got to be fucking...
Dude, I don't even need the pre-workout at this point.
Let's go back to Naveen.
And then let's keep it going.
I think we're very close here.
So let's do it.
So just two things.
One, I just want to give a shout out to the Polygon fam in the audience.
I see a bunch of people down there.
Just want to say hi to you, number one.
And number two, Frank, something we haven't talked about, at least since I've been in this space,
is the fucking merch drop you did, brother.
They're, like, concurrent to this whole fucking amazing ordinal goodness.
Like, holy shit, bro.
That was such a fucking surprise.
So I ordered my first D-God hoodie, too, in Bitcoin orange.
Love that you did a custom die for it.
You know, I just want to give a shout out on that because we've not talked about that yet.
Like, holy fucking shit.
Dude, the merch is fire.
I don't think we'll ever drop another set of orange hoodies again.
And so we were like, because part of the thought process with the D-God stuff is, how do we make this so that they're all iconic when we drop them?
And we do these limited drops, like almost like open editions.
So that in the future, people remember that.
I think I can drop some alpha here.
For example, you guys are going to like this idea a lot on D-N-Y-C.
So the D-N-Y-C hoodies were so fire.
I'm actually wearing it right now.
It's the same manufacturer.
We found a new one.
It's for these same Bitcoin hoodies that we did.
We were, like, juggling between manufacturers before.
This guy is, he's got that sauce.
It's such a good hoodie.
But we were thinking about doing two colorways, one blue and one black.
You get the blue one if you're actually in New York.
You've got the rooms, you know, and you're actually there at the event in New York.
And everyone online can buy the black one.
So then in the future, whenever you do events, you know, you see people walking around, put people posting pictures with their hoodies.
It's a really clear status signal, like, you know, I was there at D-New York.
But you still allow people to, like, get dope merch because we're going to make dope merch for D-New York, you know, if they're not able to attend the event.
And so same thing with this Bitcoin orange hoodie and the cream one, too.
I don't know if we're ever going to print these again.
And so that's what I like.
It's kind of fun to do it in this way.
And I have to shout out Bobby on our team who really bodied that design and made the UI, like, and UX really fun to use.
And there's a lot of people we got to shout out, honestly, from the team.
Shout out to fucking Kevin.
I mean, I don't even want to do the shout outs yet because let's get number one and then we'll do the shout outs.
Like, again, the night is still young.
Got to get these fucking inscriptions out.
Got to get this winner's list out.
But, man, like, thank you so much for bringing that up, Naveen.
The hoodies go hard.
I've seen them and the quality is this is the best hoodie we're going to drop because this manufacturer, you know, we found finally, like, it's not too thick of a fucking hoodie, but it's still a thick hoodie.
And for people that wear a lot of hoodies, you know what I'm talking about.
Like, it's not too thick like some of the previous D-God ones were, but it's still a thick hoodie and the puff print is ridiculous.
It's, like, never coming off of this thing.
It's, you know, it's really good.
So hyped on those.
All right.
Let's go to โ let's see who hasn't talked in a while.
Pixel, go for it.
Bro.
So two things.
One is we actually had an X Plus member who, when he looked at the UI, it was so fucking clean, right?
And when he saw the status bar just loading like Windows used to do back in the day, he thought that that was actually, like, some back-end shit going on.
And he was wondering why he had to wait so long for the bar to finish.
And I'm a boomer, full disclosure, but that shit just had me going.
And that's how smooth that UI was, dude.
That shit โ I mean, everybody said it tonight, but I just had to tell you that story because it was fucking hilarious.
That's true, yeah.
The other thing is I went to an art show last night, and I ran into a woman who, like, runs the Tate Gallery, like, curates it and all sorts of shit.
And we got into a three-hour conversation.
Two, like, two hours into it, I dropped, like, D-Gods and Ordinals and, like, the Mint.
And he was, like, super anti-NFTs.
They fuck with, like, artists, and it's destroying, like, the gallery scene.
I'm like, yeah, but Christie's.
And he goes, yeah, but fuck them.
And we talked about people.
We talked about the dude who burns his fucking art before he NFTs it.
And, dude, it was, like, a three-hour conversation, but I wanted to say something about almost the end of the conversation.
Like, I dropped the mic on him.
I was just, like, loading up.
And I tied fucking art to Bitcoin in a way that Trevor was just describing.
And I'm like, you don't understand.
This is the only mechanism on the fucking, in the universe that can protect content like music, art, speech, and code that no fucking government,
no power of any resource on the planet could possibly bring down ever, not even the fucking solar flare can.
It's going to be quantum-proof.
No government has that.
And I was telling, I was leaning in, dude, the whole fucking gallery turned around.
I was dropping the mic.
I got on the flow.
And I'm like, understand that this is art.
This is the new art.
There is a new meta.
And it has to do with protecting art, having its providence, having its fucking chain of custody, true ownership.
Oh, fuck, man.
I didn't mean to do that.
Keep going.
Sorry, the winners list is coming out pretty soon.
So, my bad, my bad.
Dude, fuck.
I didn't mean to click that.
That was a banger, bro.
Sorry, sorry.
Yo, Pixel is killing it, man.
True ownership.
Pixel.
Pixel.
True ownership.
Dude, I'm fucking on a roll, dude.
Frank, you interrupt me any time because I want to know if I fucking got one.
But listen, like the art community in that moment did the fucking math.
They were thinking crypto bad for environment, crypto fucking bro culture, crypto fucking energy, like all the shit, dude.
All the memes you fucking read about everywhere.
And by the end of that conversation, and dude, that turned into another hour conversation with people breaking off into groups talking about whether or not these artists whose art was hanging on those fucking walls were wondering,
should they fucking think about translating some of their art to the digital realm?
And they didn't even know that the younger artists are coming up digital only, that that is their genesis.
That is their inception for how they experience art.
And they're trying to tell me art is an experience where you look at the shit on the wall and you talk about it.
And I'm like, no, dude, that's what we're doing in the metaverse every fucking second of every day, way more passionately than any of you motherfuckers.
And they finally got it, bro.
Like, we need to lean into the fact that this Bitcoin protects this fucking art in ways that the humanity has never had as a tool before in history.
Holy fuck.
Dude, and what a way to segue this because it looks like we are about to deploy this fucking winners list.
It's in staging right now.
Going to send it to production.
We just got the ship it emojis in the fucking Discord chat right now.
Dude, let me just say one last thing here before this goes.
I really hope everyone that's in this space got it and anyone that's not listening didn't.
Just because, you know, you guys are in the space right now trying to be nice.
But at the end of the day, if you didn't get it, I think we really want to create a fun and healthy secondary market around this thing.
Because I think that's what Bitcoin needs right now.
It's like that is like what is missing and that's the missing piece of this and everything we've done thus far is to optimize for that.
And so, man, just pay attention tonight.
If you didn't get one, I know you might be upset, but maybe we got some paper ham bozos in the fucking audience right now.
So, like, I'm just saying.
So, the way we're going to do it is going to be kind of fun.
We're going to post the winners list.
It's going to have these obfuscated addresses, but you'll be able to see, like, the first set of letters and the last set of letters.
So, you can kind of go through and look and command F and find if your wallet's in there.
And then from there, what we're planning to do is actually we don't have any of the inscriptions you've been assigned on the winners list.
And, yeah, like, we're going to just start sending them out.
So, you're going to find out in your fucking wallet.
But that way for people that are staying up, you know, you can just check if your wallet's in there.
If it's not, then you can go to sleep if you've been, like, up for the whole fucking day.
And, yeah, I think that is the plan.
And then people are just going to be posting their fucking Bitcoin D guys throughout the night.
It's going to be fun.
And then from there, we're going to start sending out refunds right now.
And it's all this stuff.
Yeah, it looks like it's live.
Yeah, I'm going to tweet the link right now so everyone can get it.
But let's fucking go.
Yo, it's live.
Bro, this is on.
Holy shit.
Cheers.
Cheers.
Cheers.
Cheers.
Cheers.
Cheers.
i just want to interrupt and say that i got one let's go
none of you will ever forget this fucking day the rest of your lives
that's fucking art all right let's fucking go
