We're going to start things very soon anyway
by the way i'm just gonna throw out there guys uh i'm looking for like more kind of people to kind of like step up and take like bigger roles in these spaces so if that speaks to you and you're
good at doing various things like music or good conversation or stuff like that let me know because
i want to kind of like formalize this a little better. Like we're kind of like, you know, flying by our,
flying by our seats here sometimes, which is kind of funny,
but I would like to get it a little better structured that, you know,
like, yeah. But anyway, it's kind of fun as it is too.
So just throwing it out there. If you guys feel inclined, you know,
first of all, come on stage. And second of all, you know,

You're beautiful, you're beautiful.
We're beautiful. all right thank you guys for joining us that's how you do it let's go thank you guys for joining
um and uh yeah i got a got a fun spaces here lined up just a heads up i don't know uh if we'll be going the
full two hours uh just to be completely candid i've got like this tooth issue and actually the
funny thing what makes it hurt is talking which is hilarious i have to talk all the time so uh
anyway it's hurting a little bit so i'm gonna like try to keep how much I speak less. That being said, we have some cool stuff on the spaces I want to share with you guys.
Yeah, really cool kind of discovery that I made this past week.
It ties to the direction that we're going.
Without further ado, we kick this off.
If anyone else wants to jump on
the spaces feel free to join um and uh yeah thank you guys again for joining on this uh
saturday morning for you guys saturday night for me saturday evening it's nice over here now
you know by the way last week there was an earthquake here in bangkok right
so i didn't really think about it a lot but the chance of an earthquake happening
after you have an earthquake is like it's like 10 000 times higher than normal so i didn't really think about it a lot, but the chance of an earthquake happening after you have an earthquake is like, it's like 10,000 times higher than normal.
So I didn't really think about that until like afterwards.
But yeah, luckily nothing else has happened.
Again, that's kind of sunk in how crazy of an experience that was.
That was like the day before the last space.
So yeah, the whole earthquake here.
good here thank God yeah and then there was the Bangkok Southeast Asia thing but
a lot of events got canceled because of earthquake so unfortunately and then it
was just kind of like I was trying to hop around but then Bangkok traffic is
absolutely absurd so anyway Bangkok's awesome regardless of which.
So let's kick things off here.
All right, first of all, well, how are you doing, Gabby?
Good to see you too, Tommy.
You know, I heard about the earthquake and, you know,
prayers going out to those who've been affected.
And definitely you're hearing lots of people's prayers
and so are the people in Bangkok.
So I just first and foremost say that
and thank you again for the space.
Glad to be here on another Saturday with the family
and with the community, I guess we call community family,
but all is well here and lots of pollen.
Summer is definitely on its way.
uh 80 degree weather um and uh super excited to you know to see the the sun out and uh people out
and enjoying themselves in the community lots of people to talk to um and uh spread the the word of
cryptocurrency to others and share ecosystems so uh definitely uh glad to be here today thanks tommy
let's go or let's grow and speaking of which where are those guys uh and i want to thank you guys for
coming on by the way uh at these times i know it's early um so thank you guys for joining just uh
i gotta have energy to do the spaces before it gets too late on my end. So we potentially could shift it an hour ahead,
but then I will only be able to be here for an hour probably.
Just throwing it out there.
And Mark, can you hear us over there?
He's like juggling three devices usually,
but I don't know if he got one of my own speaker.
All right, well, let's just jump into it, guys.
What I'm going to do here, this, again,
I have not designed this to be a long space.
It's just kind of a cool one.
First of all, just going to give you guys some quick updates um
loud and clear tom i can hear you oh okay all right welcome mark um okay oh and by the way i
didn't tell you guys last week either mark i was like i actually listened to our last space again
i was just like listening to it over and uh it was actually hilarious mark so i was on the phone
with mark during the earthquake.
So Mark, Mark, why don't you, you know, you remember that, right?
We were talking about something.
It was like some problem we were dealing with.
And Mark was there for it.
And Mark was like looking it up for me, like to see like what magnitude it was and stuff.
What did you make of it mark from from your end
mark was there for it mark was like looking it up for me like see like
what magnitude it was and stuff that was crazy you got like a 20 second lag mark
it's a long long way i think you gotta like refresh it or otherwise our conversation is going to be very lagged.
I think Tommy, that was really hilarious, but at the same time, very scary.
Sorry, if I'm speaking over you, Tommy, just let me know. Okay.
Just put like a thumbs down so I can you know three devices it's sometimes it's it's kind of like a late
boomer on my end so please let me know with the thumbs down like hey you're
speaking over me so I don't intend to do that with anybody so thank you yeah you
know the fun part that was crazy Tommymmy is that how quick it was
to for me to just google it and just find that like you know on the google like literally like
you know the magnitude of the earthquake and the epicenter and everything for me that was the most
crazy part and then after that like you know i don't use facebook a lot but facebook really
captured a lot of videos as compared to other social media platforms and there was not not like
a pleasant sight to watch it extremely scary with like water coming out of from the rooftop and like
people swimming in the water and like you know they're going like that like dashing on to the glass and like you
know being scared and just running helter-skelter it was very scary yeah man i'll tell you guys what
again the craziest thing about that was again as i said you just don't know how bad it was going to
be like it's an experience you never normally have so when that's happening like you don't know if
like dude i was like looking at a building out
of my window because i can see another skyscraper 100 feet from me right and i'm like watching that
building sway like what if that building fell on my building or some crazy shit you know but
anyway yeah thank god like it was honestly just a big scare everyone was on edge for a while
things are still like semi-disrupted uh like we still have one elevator down and there's like some damage, some buildings, but thank God.
You know, I think it's a, I think Thailand's an amazing place and deserves a lot of blessings.
So happy that nothing happened too much here.
Of course, the poor people of Myanmar, Burma, they have it really hard there.
If you don't know, like they have got like a civil war going on there and they're like, yeah, like a lot of them come over here to Thailand to work,
you know, to make more money here. So they got hit by pretty hard. So I feel bad for them.
But anyway, let's move on from that. Um, let's go on to, uh, what some of the stuff I want to tell
you guys. So first of all, um, mobile UI, uh, if you you guys i was talking about it last week but we're still doing
improvements to it and it's looking like better and better so please do go play with it and give
your feedback and stuff as well we still have some more upgrades coming but really i'm getting
really happy with our design and it really is like a tier one NFT marketplace user experience,
user interface and user experience.
And actually, again, very easy to use, you know,
compared to a lot of marketplaces, very user-friendly.
And, of course, we always are upgrading and improving.
And then the next thing I want to say is, yeah,
I want to tell you guys a little bit about where we're going.
Just give you the latest updates there, man.
I'll tell you guys what we work.
I think we work too much, man.
Me and Mark, especially sometimes like, but actually a lot of other team members too.
Like some, we just kind of like pedal the metal sometimes. And, but you know, that's what you gotta do sometimes, you know?
that's what you gotta do sometimes, you know? So that's what we do. So, uh, yeah. Um, we have a
good partnerships kind of brewing. Let me tell you guys one that I'm really excited about. Um,
there's a, there's a blockchain called scale. If you guys have heard of it, S K A L E. And this is
a blockchain. That's a gas free blockchain, which is pretty cool. It's like transactions are free.
that's a gas-free blockchain which is pretty cool it's like transactions are free and that is a very
potent uh partnership with our marketplace because um us doing a zero fee marketplace on a zero gas
blockchain you know just having the transactions for free you know for gaming and stuff they're
like really focused on gaming and that sort of stuff so that's the sort of stuff we're gonna
be plugging into like looking at and obviously many other chains as well too.
So like Ape Chain, as I mentioned before, and some of these newer NFT chains, Manad, there's a few others as well too that we got on our radar.
But it's all just a matter of like dev resources and plugging it in and we're pushing really hard on that.
resources and plugging it in and we're pushing really hard on that um you know recruiting is uh
is a big thing we're focused on these days finding the right devs to to plug in to help with that to
expand our power um but the marketplace itself and functionality and everything you know again
the way the way it's framed is it takes two years and two million dollars to build an empty
marketplace if not three years and 3 million, if not more.
And that's if someone does it successfully,
which everyone does not either.
So we have, we have done that part.
So now it's like just plugging into different blockchains.
So that's kind of the path wrong.
Mark, you want anything to that? I think Mark has like really bad delay.
Yeah, Gabby, you go for it.
I mean, everybody always talks about gas.
I think Mark, we got to do something with your technology i don't know what it's like
actually it's the funniest thing mark is like
uses technology like a powerhouse like more than anybody but some
i think his reception there where he is just terrible always
always does that mark do you have like another device or something yeah maybe
another device add them to the speaker stage probably
will work but add your Mark account.
And let's, let's Gabby, let's let you go while he works on that and then we'll try him next.
Okay. I was just saying, you know, when you mentioned a gasless, you know, being gasless,
that's one of the biggest problems that most people go through is, you know, when you mentioned a gasless, you know, being gasless, that's one of
the biggest problems that most people go through is, you know, gas has gotten significantly better,
especially with Ethereum, with Denkun and, you know, all the other upgrades that have been
happening, which have been marvelous. I love Ethereum. But to say that, you know, that's
what most people think about and incorporation of different wallets into people's ecosystems too,
I think has been such a big help.
Those who might use MetaMask versus a Coinbase wallet
or OnChain, which is crypto.com's wallet.
I think that really, really helps
with people being able to interact with different ecosystems.
So I just want to kind of put it out there because I know I have some tokens
that I want to use in certain ecosystems,
but they're not necessarily the right or not the right wallet,
but a wallet that's acceptable.
And so I don't know, is it very hard to incorporate other wallets into an ecosystem?
Could you kind of educate me a little bit about that, Tommy?
No, it's not very hard to do.
Usually, that's the beautiful thing about EVM, you know,
and why it's really good to be plugged into EVM,
because there's so many tools that integrate pretty easily,
you know, like MetaMask and these other wallets.
Some of them require more work than others, but's not it's not that hard to do no so and definitely
a big reason again to stay that's why we've i've always wanted energy be very close to ethereum
for that reason so we can like adopt those sorts of things easily i appreciate that tommy because
that's one of the huge things that I noticed that sometimes is missing.
It's like, oh, I have to go and move, you know, my tokens or my coins to another wallet because my wallets are accepted, you know, at the time.
And so I'm like, oh, my gosh, you know, just another thing to do.
of course, and there's a little shameless plug in there, will be represented at a function
where we will be able to be the crypto experts in the space to kind of get people acclimated.
So it'll be the beginning stages.
And so those ecosystems that I'm already in contact with, with having people with boots
on the ground, it's really going to help get the word out because we utilize our phones
And so a lot of the beginning stages will be taught on phone, but then morphing into maybe more of a Zoom call or so forth.
So it's really important that those of us who are the boots on the ground get to understand these ecosystems and how they work with newbies in the beginning.
Of course, we will have them on the centralized side first
and then help them graduate to the decentralized side.
So really excited and going to take Cripco Chicks with me tomorrow
as I'm there along with the Sheba Sequoia Forest and the SHIB ecosystem
and would love to welcome other ecosystems in as we get more familiar
or as we're more familiar with these ecosystems
to introduce them to people in our local communities I'm in Charlotte North
Carolina I am a business so you can find me on that so SNC go if you'd like but
once just really put that out there that you know people with boots on the ground
you know we really need to be here because we're going to help spread those
the word in our communities in our local communities so um thank you for that information
right on good stuff gabby thank you um mark let's see if your side works go ahead and try when you
hear this my chick can you guys okay yeah that was a fast response all right good you're good to go
i think i found the issue tommy so i guess it's the cell phones that kind of lag during the spaces
uh but not the desktop or even i even uh ipads like when you're running like multiple accounts uh but uh i'm glad
everything is working so i think i will i guess dragons are very lucky for me they solved my
problem so um it's it's really great but right on represent dragon dgens let's go um what what do we ask about before so i wanted you
were going to say something about something else what we're talking about uh i think tommy isn't to build an NFT marketplace I I mean
what's your thoughts on it uh is it is building her is building hard or maintaining it hard
well Mark I think you and I know better than anyone
Mark, I think you and I know better than anyone.
Plus Mark, Mark has been very deep in the trenches for like the past two years, you know?
And, uh, you know, that was like in the deep phases of us building during the like dead
of the bear market, you know, nothing was going on.
Um, I think, I think i think um man building there's a lot that goes
into it man you need to have the right the right people the right systems your brain has to work
the right way to like know how to build which is something that you know i i was like i've like
built a company before like i know how to do some things, like kind of intuitive, but there's like,
when you get to like a more experienced level,
like you get just the right systems in place.
It's, it's, it's people managing, it's expectation managing.
It's also the budget managing too.
That's a huge part of it as well.
Man, there's a lot of companies out there right now
that are still paying out the wazoo. Didn't you hear, did you guys hear about that like jupiter thing they're like paying their
employees like and of course they're like they've been there for a while and stuff but like it is
it is like a really um you got to make sure i'll tell you as a company one of the big things is
the budget so you just got to make sure that that is you got to be on top of that and until you have
like that enormous success then you got to keep it tight like really tight that's like a
huge lesson in doing things and and again find ways to keep it going forward man because honestly
you guys know there's like many people that have encouraged me to quit you guys must know that
right i mean and you know even even even my parents think I'm crazy sometimes.
My parents thought I was crazy when I was getting crypto.
I told my parents about crypto 100 times.
You know, I'm talking like back in like 2013, you know?
And I was like, I was just trying so hard to get them to like buy.
I was like, just buy $5,000 of Bitcoin.
She even told me about that the other day, you know?
And Bitcoin at the time was under $1,000
and it was like 800 bucks or something.
So, you know, but they didn't
because they just, they that much think you're wrong
and they're right, you know?
And nothing against them.
They have some crypto now because I got it,
but because I got it, let me do it.
But, you know, people think you're crazy sometimes.
Like, what are you doing? You know, honestly, if you guys look at me,
do you guys know how many sacrifices I made to do this? Do you guys know how many sacrifices I made?
I was talking to Eric about that this past week. He'll be joining us, I think, a bit later here
in the spaces. But man, I mean, that's what it takes to be a builder, man.
And that's why people, again, we talked about that before, but it takes a commitment.
Like you have to be willing to sacrifice things to do it, man.
And you got to be willing to, because sometimes things are going good and then, you know, things shifted.
They shifted on us. And I was like on autopilot. I was like, things are going good and then and then you know things shifted they shifted on us and i was like on autopilot i was like things are going good everything's good
and then you kind of like you know and then before you know it like oh man we got to like pull it
pull it out of the gutter you know which you know pull us up by the bootstraps so that's what it
takes dude that's what it takes anyone who tells you otherwise has been lucky and projects do get
i want to make people hit lucky that actually a lot of the projects that hit success hit it because
of luck but then you is there follow through there that's how you can tell if it's legit because
that's all those nft projects right that came out in 2021 that didn't do that like you know as soon
as times got tough there's there are a number of projects so like as soon as times got tough, there's, there are a number of projects. So like as soon as times got tough, like bail.
And that, that's again, the difference between, um, and I don't, I don't know why people have
such a hard time committing, to be honest with you.
I guess there's just so many options and people, and that's why, that's why you have to know
what you want to do, you know?
Cause if you don't know what you want to do, you can be victim to that. If I just listened to the people around me and told me to quit, you know, because if you don't know what you want to do, you can be victim to that.
If I just listen to the people around me and told me to quit, you know, they don't, they don't see
the value in what I've done. You guys like all of you guys here listening to this, you're like,
dude, you got an NFT marketplace. That's bad-ass. But you know how many people are like, oh yeah,
well, why don't you just get a job? Serious. I'm serious.
Like that might like, you know, but that's how that's how the world is.
And that's how people are, you know, and but it's you who sees what other people don't.
That was my gift, you know, with crypto.
I saw what other people did it.
They thought I was crazy when I was so I was so enthused.
Dude, you guys, I was like trying to buy Dogecoin when I was this was was like 20, man, Dogecoin was a 10 or 20 million market cap or something
absurd, something absurd.
You could buy, how much of them?
It was like, um, for a thousand bucks, you could buy, was it a million Dogecoin?
I think that's what it was, you know?
So, um, or maybe even, maybe even more than that.
Maybe it was like, I don't want to say 10
million for a thousand it was really cheap i remember the apartment i was in then you know
and my dream was just i just wanted to have as much dogecoin as possible you know and um i don't
want to tell you guys how much dogecoin i had at one point because it's really painful to say
it's really painful like i wish i kept it i had a half a billion dogecoin at one point
that is one two hundredth of the supply i knew that i knew that thing you know and uh
of course i got scammed with these rug pull icos and nft projects anyway all good let's go let's
let's grow and that's why the 80 refundable refundable is the way to go. Because you don't have to worry
about this projects coming out. And just my God, man, I don't want to go down this road,
because I got more happy stuff to talk about. But man, and you guys have all been through it,
right? The pain we've gone through and buying into projects that it's like, man, they are so
lucky and so blessed. Like, you know how hard it is to raise money you
guys like look at look at this marketplace this nft marketplace i got which is like
light years better than um pretty much so many projects i invested and but those projects were
raising 20 million dollars 50 million dollars in the in the 2017 ico like nothing you know
and just because everyone was so excited and everyone expected everything to go up
and then the follow-through some of those projects didn't even launch a token you know, and just because everyone was so excited and everyone expected everything to go up.
And then the follow through, some of those projects didn't even launch a token.
And some of them just launched a token and didn't do anything else.
It's like, okay, yeah, I'm sure you guys can relate to this.
We got to laugh at it, right?
You got to laugh at it because it's retarded what we did.
Hindsight, you know, we could, we could could anyway, we got to learn from our mistakes, failing forward, failing forward. Right. Learn from your mistakes. Yeah. Good idea. Let me let me pause there. I want to hear anyone else.
Everyone else wants to talk. You know, Tommy, these learning mistakes.
Well, like you said, we can laugh now, but back then it really wasn't funny. And sometimes it's like, still not funny to those who are new in the space who are
getting, you know, who might throw their money into, you know, some random token and then all
of a sudden get wrecked pulled. And it's just not a good feeling, especially during times when times
are hard. You know, it's like I'm putting money maybe that people don't have into the market,
not that they should do that,
but we know it happens. You know, sometimes desperate times calls for desperate measures. It's like picking that lottery ticket when you know you shouldn't, you know, you shouldn't play
the lottery because it's not, you know, your chances of winning are not very high. But, you
know, we're here, we're back, and I have to definitely put in, you know, crypto checks,
you know, congratulations for having 200 TikTok, you know, followers on TikTok.
So please, you know, check out the crypto chicks.
Lots of great things going on there.
You know, we're not a scam.
You know, times have been difficult, but we're back and we're better than ever.
So like you said, it takes the people with the right mindset, the same mindset to help push a project forward.
the people with the right mindset, the same mindset to help push a project forward. And I
think what you have here in this space are some great people that want to see people succeed,
regardless of what ecosystem they're in, are part of, we're like-minded people who see that there's
a change that's needed, and we're here to help that change become possible and spread that word
to others. I think that is so powerful and it's wonderful to be in spaces
where you're with like-minded people,
learning something new every single day.
There's not a day that is boring in crypto.
And if you think there's a day you might be in the wrong space
or might be around the wrong people
because there's something to learn every day.
There's always something changing.
So I feel like sometimes it's like
sipping water out of a fire hose, you know, because there's so much information.
So coming to spaces, reading, it's sometimes it's, it's a lot.
And, you know, how do you keep from being burned out because some of the same people are in the spaces?
So if you notice that, hey, these same people are here, we appreciate you being here.
We appreciate everyone who is consistently
here all the time and showing up. If there's any community members that want to jump in and help,
it's not hard. And we're all serving as somewhat interns here to help the projects grow because
we are in a builder's market. Some people call it bear, some people call it builders,
but we're building and we need people here. know don't lose the vision because as crypto goes down the space also tends to lack you know lack that
ability for people to be able to stay in it stay in it we're all in here together we're going
through it together so just continue to be part of the community so i thank you for the space again
Thank you for the space again. So thanks, Tommy.
Yeah, thank you for that, Gabby.
That was awesome. And Mark, you go ahead.
Yeah, I think, Tommy, as we are going through, you know, blockchains after blockchains and, you know, looking at the marketplaces there, some of the chains they started like last year and um you can see
and i i would urge everyone every one of you guys like you know to go and check out these chains
that are coming like you're all coming up and you know working um go and look at the nft marketplaces that are existing there and go and check out gmi uh right
now um we are heavily like you you'll see the activity on the energy chain and soon it will
be on the ethereum but compare even the energy part to all these other marketplaces on the other
chains uh the you know the ones that are building other than Blur, Magic Eden, and OpenSea.
One common trait, Tommy, that I have found in them is that they're dead.
Like, there's no activity there.
In the last one week itself, and correct me, Tommy, if I'm wrong,
but when I'm looking at the volume, I think I calculated it last yesterday. So we had a volume of around 30,000 energy just from the trade itself on the marketplace.
And also, I personally feel like not boasting our platform, but the UI experience is also very different from these platforms that I am going
and interacting with uh the quality is severely impaired when it comes to UI experience right so
like um these uh like you know Facebook Instagram and YouTube and all of these platforms are like
you know intuitive like the UI is built like intuitively, which means
that, you know, once you are on the platform, you don't have to
go and, you know, learn or read a doc where to where to find
this way to find that, like, it's it's very intuitive. And I
find that thing lacking in the first impression that I'm seeing these new NFT marketplace that is coming up.
Another thing that I think we together observed, Tommy, was that, you know, the market market, like the volume on blur on like the blast chain was like almost dead.
like the blast chain was like almost dead.
Like we just found like two projects that had like a positive volume,
two collections that had a positive volume on Blur.
I think that the big thing here is, again, it ties to commitment.
Like actually, you know, Blur bursted out on the scene, you know, Again, it ties to commitment.
Actually, Blur bursted out on the scene.
And I think they still capture enormous volume on the Ethereum chain, mind you, not on their chain.
However, you can tell when someone's no longer working on a product.
So if you go look at blur, there's like major things. Like I think development, they're pretty much stopped.
Like if you go look at their market depth chart, they don't, they just have a sell side.
They don't have a buy side.
And it was something they always had, like from the day one, we never fixed that.
And many other little things like that, where it's like,
so that's not, that's not the product they're focused on, you know? And, and there's no,
I think the important thing, Mark, is like, we're not trying to, we're not trying to talk down on
any project or anything. We're talking, we're trying to, um, just talk about, um, again,
providing like focus on the customer, right? Isn't that what Jeff Bezos says?
And it's a mistake I made in the past, too.
I don't really want to compare myself too much to other projects or people.
I want to focus on my objective, right?
I want to make sure, like, I'm doing some things differently here, right?
I could have copied OpenC2's new OpenC2 ui and with the side menu and all that stuff
and there are some projects that do that's like the first thing they do they're like oh let me
just go copy it at some degree you got to look at it like a user experience thing like what's
actually the better user experience because that's what matters focus on the customer not
focus on the competition too much you can get it's good to learn from the competition right like oh man
like like openc have has some new innovative features like um i don't know you can see like
all the holders have certain traits and stuff that's cool these are like really advanced niche
features which i don't think make or break anything i think like general user experience
and stuff is more important but um you should that's what i'm
saying you should learn from the competitors um but ultimately focus on your customer
so that's what i would say there
and also x to y to shut down its doors as well, I think. Right, Tommy?
That was an interesting one.
By the way, Mark, try to make me co-host.
See if you can do that with that energy account.
But, yeah, they did. And X2Y2 was...
Wow. I can't believe i did it my co-host i still see myself speaker
i saw you just a moment ago there we go again okay sweet i'm ghost all right
that's what i'm talking about um
all right so yeah you know it's kind of a karmatic thing. They were, I think, the first marketplace on ETH to rug royalties.
So I don't think their heart's in the game either.
Wish them the best of luck.
God, I can't believe ethics and morals are so just people just throw them out the door as soon as convenient.
But that's something we don't compromise on that so yeah go ahead gabby i want to ask in making a marketplace
i know you said people you know the user experience is important i totally 100% agree with that and so
designing your own is a better way to go but but some people copy and paste maybe OpenSea.
And why do they do that? Is it because it's easier and it doesn't take a, you know, it takes work,
but maybe not a lot of work, as much work as it would take for you to design your own and make it user friendly
and put your own spin and touch on your marketplace? Why would people copy open c yeah there's a couple there's a couple elements to that but
first of all um one reason why people copy is because it's like kind of tried and tested right
like if another marketplace is successful they're like okay well theirs is good enough to be
successful you'd be shocked at how bad you guys are sometimes from people who like if they don't
have a good design knack, they really
don't know how to design. So sometimes the best thing to do is to copy. And honestly, well,
honestly, I think a good strategy is looking at every competitor and kind of like, what are the
best features from each one? Which ones do all of them have? And, uh, you know, uh, what do they
have in common? What do they have in common what do they have differently what works
better here what works better there and learning that's what i mean by learning from your competitors
is good to do but you should never like idolize someone like okay no they have the best way of
doing it because you know i you know like our marketplace has a you know culmination of different
things and a bit of our own innovation. Sam, I see you there.
Oh, he's still requested.
I thought I added him. All right, Sam, you can speak.
Do you have a local community for them to better understand your project?
Man, I did not understand that question. Did anybody else?
No, if you could repeat, Sam, that would be helpful.
Yes, sir. slowly and repeat your question do you have a local community for them to better understand
your budget yes we do have a local community and we are on zealy we actually have two zealy
community groups so one is our regular energy zeely community and the other one is a specialized
invite-only Raiders group. I'll post the invite on the top. So the link on the top in the bulletin
board. So you guys are on the Jumbotron. So you guys can take a look at it. And then you can
obviously hop onto our Discord and join know join our community there we have a
special channel for our community hope that answered the question if you guys have questions
like this just put them in the comments because like the panel here purpose of it is to have like
a meaningful conversation not just random shit no offense to you brother but like i don't want
to have that on the space so if you have just random stuff like that drop it in the comments
if you have something meaningful to add to the conversation you join to have that on the space. So if you have just random stuff like that, drop it in the comments. If you have something meaningful to add to the conversation,
you join the conversation.
So Sam, if you got something to add, feel free.
Otherwise, I'm going to gummy invasions next.
All right, I take that as a no.
Yeah, I was going to say good morning, good morning.
I don't know if I have anything meaningful to say, but it's glad to be in the space,
You got to count our blessings, right?
I got up way too early for a human being, but here I am. I'm in Vegas at a horse show. My wife just showed, did great. So that
was awesome. So I ran up to my hotel room just to be in spaces with y'all. Well, it's always good
having you. Thank you for joining us, Eric. Truly a pleasure.
And actually, we had a big move in the energy space.
I don't know if you got the capacity, Eric, to tell about it there, how busy you are or what.
But if you want to, go ahead.
I don't know how you're looking time-wise or whatever.
No, I'm free for the rest of the space. I'm good to go.
Yeah, I put a proposal out there.
You can check it up on the Discord under live proposals to see the details.
I don't want to pollute the space with all the details.
But essentially, it's an emissions schedule change, which is very, very, very, very, very important for any blockchain that kind of wants to break through the ceiling that they're at. Did a lot of research and studying with Binance, Ethereum,
and others that have masternodes and do this really well. And basically what it came down to
is a small group of them, like-minded individuals that had a passion and belief for where the
project was going to go in the future, not where it currently is, but where it's going.
And they made some tough decisions, and they're reaping the rewards and the fruit from that now.
Sometimes you have to, I don't want to say make a pivot, because I don't know if this is a pivot,
but the emissions change will basically decrease Masternode, Staker, Backbone,, block allocation, and increase the treasury.
Again, I have the details in the Discord.
I think it's a phenomenal proposal.
I think it's going to create a lot of upward mobility, and a lot of eyes will begin to –
they're looking around, investors that are looking into it.
It's like, wow, they're able to make a big pivot and a big change like this for the health of the ecosystem, for the health of the Treasury.
Because, as you know, you know, self-funding Treasury, Treasury is what funds, you know, exchange listings.
It funds budgets. It funds upgrades.
Like people forget this stuff costs money, even Ethereum and Binance chain.
Even Ethereum and Binance Chain, it costs money to run these things.
And to have that self-governing treasury, it's super, super important.
So I think we need to beef that up.
So I hope that answers that question.
I don't want to just go on and on and ramble.
Or everybody's just so stunned with the knowledge i just put down i don't know no that that was a good uh a good summary the long and just to add on that uh to what
he's saying is uh um we are it's just this was uh eric's idea and i think it's a fantastic idea
um we're we're just reducing the cell pressure on the energy chain.
So we were going to do a halving before, kind of like a Bitcoin halving,
but this is kind of like a readjustment version,
kind of like a softer version, a lighter version,
where we're still going to emit 1 million energy per month.
But instead of 40% going to the treasury, 70% will go to the treasury.
And then basically the other emissions for masternodes and staking and the backbone all get cut in half.
So it's kind of like a halving for a lot of the emissions, but actually an increase of what's going to the treasury.
So I think that's definitely a good optimization.
So we got that going on in the energy ecosystem right now.
So do you want to, Oh, sorry.
And I do want to emphasize treasury is not staffs cash pot.
Like these funds can't be released.
I accidentally pressed mute everyone.
I'm sorry. Go ahead, please. This is moving my phone. If you didn't want me to say it, man accidentally pressed mute everyone. Eric, I'm sorry, go ahead, please.
I'm just moving my phone. I was like, well, if you didn't want me to say it, man, that's okay.
Don't say it, Eric. That's a secret. Shut your mouth. No, I was just going to say,
the treasury is not like the money pod or the staff's bag or, you know, I don't know why this
stuff is being said just in the space, not just energy, but just in the space. The treasury has
to be voted on by masternodes. If masternodes don't vote on it, they can't use
the funds. That's just how decentralized governance works. So I just wanted to reemphasize that. This
does not mean that people get pay raises or anything like that, because I know sometimes
people associate that. This just means that they can actually afford what they need to do.
But we as masternodes in the network, we have to vote on that.
We have to see the proposal and vote on that.
Again, that's where that voting power and holding the energy coin comes into play.
I just wanted to reemphasize that.
Yeah, that is a good point.
Yeah, that is a good point.
And also, again, just reducing the cell pressure because we do, you know, I mean, part of the
pressure, cell pressure on energy has come from those masternode stakers.
So cutting that emission in half, the network's still plenty secure.
It allows us to reduce that cell pressure while increasing the allocation to the
what's available for the treasury.
That's what's got to happen.
happy to see it's smart. So just a little, little evolution there. Um, obviously we got to get the
proposal. The proposal is live right now. Uh, get that proposal passed. And then, uh, you know,
then we got to have the dev plug it in. I'm not exactly sure how soon it'll go live on mainnet.
Um, likely at least months away from being live, assuming the proposal passes. But regardless of
which, a great change to just upgrade the blockchain. So yeah, like that. All right,
I told you guys I'm going to keep the space a little lighter today. And I'm going to kind of
stick to that. But I'm going to tell you guys, so this is the exciting stuff I want to share with
can I get a drum roll when you get sound effects man with like you know you see
actually this is a great analogy guys see this is what building is like you have
people kind of come and go like we had a person here before doing sound effects
right and then they kind of like disappear and it's like oh i gotta get that seat filled again this is what a lot of
building is like this is what a lot of building is like if you guys want to first handle building is
it's keeping like all the pieces moving because you set it up and doesn't mean it just goes like
that forever it's like sometimes you look away and you come back and it's like completely stopped you're like why did it stop but that's that's what goes in the building
you guys that's what goes in the building and that's actually why most people have a difficult
time building because they think it's just like one and done no it's a constant process
of making sure that you're that's why the 80 20 rule is so important because
you're like hey these are the things we have to do no matter what that's the 20 you have to do that
the rest of the stuff maybe it falls off you know and then you have to go back and put it back up
or this is where ai is beautiful because ai never stops doing it right that's what we're talking
about last space mark you want to add on that
yeah Never stops doing it, right? That's what we're talking about, Last Space. Mark, you want to add on that?
Mark, your speaker is on, but you're not.
Were you able to hear anything from my speakers? Nope.
I was actually experimenting with the software,
but I guess I have to work on something else.
But, yeah, I think a lot of things comes with engagement, Tommy.
And, you know, it's very funny.
I don't want to reveal some secrets here tommy
but we have an agent in the making for the spaces uh and you'll be quite surprised when you see them
uh and when you see it in functioning like it's it's gonna it's gonna be real fantastic like it's
it's really gonna work so uh you'll see that uh coming very soon tommy so you
don't have to wait for a drum roll or a clap sound like you know it will automatically start detecting
it and it will automatically start playing it so yeah well that is that is one thing mark is really
good at and i gotta give props you guys and again if you guys haven't learned how to use ai talk about being a superhuman you know
honestly like i think i think if you guys if you're not taking ai seriously you really need
to start to because it's gonna it's there's gonna be a widening gap between the people who do and
the people who don't and it can really make you to a like superhuman you know it's really it's
absurd so yeah mark is working on a bunch of different ai tools
we already have various ai tools like popping up like different ai agents doing this doing that
and again amazing you know just uh used they used to have to be roles it could be they could they
could have been primary roles for like a full-time person like that's the main thing you need to do
you could have an agent do it you know game. Oh, and by the way, it's really cheap too.
So instead of having to pay someone hundreds of dollars or more per month to do a role,
you have an AI agent do it for you for probably less than $10 a month, if not less than that.
We could talk about that every space probably.
So anyone want to add on that? Yeah, AI man, we could talk about that every space probably so
Anyone want to add on that I still got my I still got my ace up my sleeve to share with you guys I haven't shared with you guys yet, but once we once we get there see if there's anything else on this when we want them soon enough
Tommy, you were speaking about some good news.
Tommy what you were saying is speaking about some good news
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Do I want to share it yet?
Or does anyone want to say anything about AI before we move on?
I'll just say, Tommy, well, yes.
AI, I'm a huge fan of AI.
It is being used in everyday uses.
You know, those of us who may have a 9-5,
some organizations are already,
and I work for a large organization, healthcare, You know, those of us who may have a nine to five, some organizations are already in.
I work for a large organization, health care, and they're beginning to, you know, deploy some of these AI techniques out throughout our jobs.
And so it's really nice to see.
But AI is not here to necessarily take your job, I will say right away.
We have to learn to work more with it than against it.
And it helps us with those mundane tasks.
And honestly, they can be quite overwhelming,
especially if you deal with data or dashboards
They can run on their own, but there are some things,
those repetitive mundane tasks
that don't take a lot of brain power to do so
that we can focus on something that may be a little bit more intricate that AI hasn't learned
quite yet. I don't know if there's anything it hasn't learned. It's becoming better and better
as we, you know, continue to use it and give it our brain power in the first place. But it doesn't
compensate for the current brain that's our brain working to make sure things run
efficiently and come up with new ideas. So I will say I love, love, love AI and glad it's here for
us to utilize. And again, for anybody who's working in organizations that may be using it,
learn how to gain a new skill, which I'm glad I gained here. And I have to go back and say,
you know, thank you again to, you know, the crypto chicks, crypto queen, and Mark who invited me to
be part of the team because it helped me gain a new skill that I actually can utilize in my current
job. So, you know, for those of us who are learning, learn a skill, utilize a skill to see if you can
help make your organization better. You know, the people will be out there and able to listen,
but you have to show them and show them the work that you've been doing.
And so I really do credit, you know,
Twitter and the space to be able to, you know,
take those skills and really use them in my day-to-day work.
So, you know, again, AI is great.
Hey, Gabby, could you hear me?
Sorry, I was like, I couldn't.
Is it just me or did it cut off?
No, I think I stopped working.
I mean, I stopped talking.
How do you know you're not an AI, Gabby?
If you're not on your AI game, get on your AI game.
Claude and ChatGPT are the two easiest ones.
You got different ones of different things.
I'm going to tell you guys now.
So, um, AI was doing an imaginary drum roll for us right now and all right so check it out
so last week i was talking to you guys about remember we were talking about tokenomics you
guys remember that you guys remember i was talking about tokenomics last week
yeah okay okay yep so check it out check this out this is something you probably a lot of you don't
know did you know that you can go on an nft marketplace like openc and you can find there's
a there's a liquidity there's a collection actually for uniswap liquidity positions so i was talking
to you guys about it last week we were researching it
and lo and behold there's a market for this here's the problem those positions are not it needs a
little bit of a different user interface and it is so like and they're very very few sales like
i'm talking like there was like two sales in the past two weeks so, very like basically almost inexistent market. So I was talking to you guys
about tokenomics last week and I told you guys how I'm doing everything possible for the GMI
tokenomics to be the best damn tokenomics you've ever seen. And that sounds funny to say, but I'm
not joking about it. I'm serious. And so part of that is what? If you guys know, if you're familiar with our tokenomics, part of what we do, and again, I like how we've done it.
So when the GMI token happens, it comes out, the TGE, it's going to come out later this year.
You participate in the airdrop, you're going to get a bunch of GMI in your account.
Participate in the airdrop.
You're going to get a bunch of GMI in your account.
And now you have a, you got a choice of what you could do with your GMI.
You can go on the market and sell it.
Or you can take your GMI and pair it with different coins like Ethereum, right?
So now you're providing liquidity.
You're helping with liquidity. Everybody loves that. So better slippage and all that stuff, you know, fees and alliswap. Boom. So now you're providing liquidity. You're helping with liquidity.
So better slippage and all that stuff,
you know, fees and all that.
Now you got liquidity on Uniswap.
Now you get an NFT back, right?
These days, like after Uniswap v3,
We have an NFT marketplace.
So you get that NFT and then we say,
okay, you lock up thatft for 6.9 years and um
um we give you another nft and we're again we're still we're still digging into this but let me
show you what i discovered and actually it was my conversation with AI that led me to this. What, what, what we're building is we're building a marketplace to basically buy and sell, um, as they're called liquidity bonds.
Nobody has done this before.
It's completely untapped and it's a massive market.
And I'm kind of like, I'm kind of like, man, should I tell you guys this?
Cause I think, I think I want, I like to, I want you guys to know where we're going and what we're looking at because it's really, really powerful.
So if you look at a bond, bonds have different characteristics. They have a duration, 30 years, whatever, right?
And then a bond has X amount of time left on it, like 26 years and three months.
And then a bond has X amount of time left on it, like 26 years and three months.
And it has a coupon associated with it and different variable characteristics that currently
They have to be expressed through an NFT, you know?
And so these ultimately can be expressed as liquidity bonds.
So I guess to paint a picture, like I was working on solving
this problem for GMI, which I haven't completely solved yet and I'm still working on it.
But then it's like, I was, as I was exploring it, the analogy I like to use is like, I was like
looking at a cave and like, have you guys seen like those videos? Like you go in the cave and
it's like this massive cave. That's what I feel like I found. Like I was going low cave to solve
this problem. And then I go a little further down. I'm like, holy shit, what did I discover?
So that's pretty powerful.
And I was asking the AI, I was like, how powerful is this?
And it's like, it's really powerful.
So I'm telling you guys, like, I just love this.
Like you cannot do, there have been no one I could have asked about this three years ago.
Like, you couldn't ask, your mentor wouldn't know anything about it.
They've never done anything like this.
The combination of DeFi plus, you know, like traditional financial assets, like, and fixed income, like the merging of these, like never before.
Like, this is highly innovative stuff.
But you need an NFT marketplace.
And we got an NFT marketplace.
So anyway, I just thought I'd share that with you guys.
It's not like extremely high on the priority list yet,
but we got to build it if we're going to make it.
We're going to build it if we're going to make it
so that you can take those positions. That's what we want to build it for going to make it. We're going to build it for going to make it so that you can take those positions.
That's what we want to provide.
We want to provide people a way to exit their position on GMI without selling the GMI on the market.
That's what we're trying to solve here.
Because what you do when you do that is you don't have to worry about people coming and dumping on your head.
And then that's a really strong thing for the price, right? worry about people coming and dumping on your head and you can, uh,
and then that's a really strong thing for the price,
right? Cause I want all your airdrops to be really valuable and that's how you keep
with what we have with the demand drivers,
I talked about that last time too.
every three months season,
which is a new demand driver.
So every season, there will be a new demand driver for GMI, and that GMI gets locked up for 6.9 years,
man. That's how you do tokenomics, man. This is highly advanced tokenomics. You will not hear
anyone else on any other spaces very, very rarely talk to this level of tokenomics, because I haven't
seen anyone else even on this level. This is at the point where I'm almost like two levels, not trying to brag, but it's like two
levels of magnitude higher above anything else I've seen out there. That's what I mean by we're
not leaving anything on the table. You know, we're not playing around. And you know what,
let me just take a humility moment and take a step back and say, with all that said and done,
you never know if it's going to succeed. I just have to say that.
You just get kicked in the nuts so many times and you've got to get used to failing.
And if not, we'll try something better the next time and keep improving.
Anyway, Cakes, I see you're loving this, so let me add you up here.
All right, you go for it, Case.
Thanks for letting me out.
I just want to say that tokenomics is pretty unique.
Liquidity demand on a quarterly basis is pretty interesting, in my opinion.
Like, man, you know what?
People leave a lot of money on the table man they really do
and i think um i don't know if it's because of uh there's it's definitely part of it's like a lack
of know-how right because who would want to consciously or willingly leave money on the
table and then of course i look at myself too like when we first of all but to be fair when we did
energy like there wasn't the capabilities you could do now. But also just kind of some naivety.
We started energy with really high APYs.
If you were there at the beginning, you're getting 100%, 200% APY,
and it's coming down over time.
The problem was people take those tokens.
If they don't think about this, they're going to miss it.
That people are going to take their tokens,
and they're going to sell.
Just plan on people selling half of whatever they can. If you got got a 50% APY, a hundred percent APY, whatever it is,
people will take that residual and just plan on them selling half of it. So in other words,
there's a constant sell pressure that comes from that. And you can see that in other projects,
other big projects. And like now they're going through that experience, but really the answer
is you've got to really think deeply.
And people really miss that.
With the lockups, they really miss the power of that.
But you've got to keep – you've got to incentivize.
Like, look, I've been here building for energy for seven years.
The people who should be rewarded the most are the people who have been there for seven years, right?
Not the people who came at the beginning and dumped on everybody's head, right?
So that's exactly a system we built.
The people who are going to be with us next seven years,
those are the people who should be rewarded.
I don't care about the people who are going to come tomorrow and leave the next day.
I care about the people who are in it to win it,
I think that's a great point, Tommy.
And I think it has to do with ignorance of the market per se, because I
think you do a good job of particularly articulating kind of the logistics and token
office for the kind of average person and makes them kind of realize not to leave money
on the table and how to optimize their gains.
I appreciate that. Thank you, man.
good at trying to explain advanced things
in a simple way, so thank you for that.
And if you have any questions or thoughts, too, man,
please do, because I will
say something. I'm never perfect,
and nothing I ever will build will be
perfect, and nor will I ever be perfect. So, I'm
always looking for ways to improve.
I'm calling you Mo for short.
I'm calling you Mo for short.
All right, I think he's having technical difficulties.
Well, let me actually pause there for a sec.
If anyone else wants to add something on those tokenomics and stuff,
feel free to join in because that's a juicy topic.
Where did you come up with the six-year or seven-year lockup?
Why not four? Why why not five why not two
months um because you you gotta you gotta respect the memes 6.9 and 420 wherever i can i print that
thing like a kind of like a psychopath i think that's a good marketing strategy i think that
makes sense i just want to hear it from the horse's mouth
yeah it's it's it is a marketing thing and it also it's also hilarious and that's the point because if you can make like the best tokenomics in the world while halfway of treating it like a
joke then that's what i talk about you know that's what i'm talking about you know what i mean so
that that's what it which hilariously these are the best tokenomics i've seen in the world and we got the 69 and we got 6.9 years and i try to put 420 in there here and there it was a
little harder to do maybe that that's actually you know getting pepe and all those tokens you guys
know do did 420 trillion supply i don't know if you guys know that like a lot of tokens did 420
trillion supply so you know they they find a way to imprint the memes and you gotta you always got
to respect the memes you know you gotta respect them because those memes are powerful cakes loves
memes and 420 let's fucking grow we got we got like a little lettuce monsters i don't know where
they're at i gotta tell them to join us man we're that m.i.IA making me sad. That's all right. I just I just tagged him
I just tagged him said did you get a free promo? Let's grow
Yeah, I can't like I can't like tag him because I can't be like hey guys look at him because he's not here
You know, they gotta be here. Um, hang on
Okay, we got real boss here
What's up? Yeah, yo, I like what you're saying about the number 69
and 420 and all that and i just joined this because i've seen the space at the top i was
just in another space um but when i joined you instantly resonated with me because you know i'm
just gonna jump into it it says projects and chill at the top but you must know what shiba inu is shibarium and bone token i actually launched my own coin it's been out for
over a year called 69 with just 69 tokens in supply we have a 6.9 tax which goes to liquidity
burning and dev funds and i've been building a small community over there it's not too active
because shibarian's been you know pretty dead to be honest but um i'm there man i'm there trying to
build this 69 meme so if you're interested reach out hit me up and let's talk tommy man i'll tell
you more about it whenever let's go man way to respect the memes. Exactly. That's why I did it, because 69 is a timeless meme.
So it don't matter how long it takes.
Everyone resonates with the 69, 420, it's forever.
So that's why I made 69 on Shibarium.
And if you don't mind, I would like to just quickly pin my link at the top, if that's okay, bro.
469 on Shibarium. Is that okay?
that? Is it open to do that?
If you're able to pin. Mark, is he able to pin?
Are you able to pin? Or do we need to give you
permission? I'm just checking now. I should're able to pin. Mark, is he able to pin? Are you able to pin? Or do we need to give you permission?
I should be able to put it. Yeah, there we go.
So I've just pinned it at the top up there.
It's just a meme on Shibarium.
And I've explained it there.
Thank you for the time, Tomat.
That is a pretty funny picture.
Yeah, I love how the Shiba Inu is behind the person's asshole
We actually got some Shiba people in our community so so very cool yeah anyway
But you got to respect the memes so you know do it for the memes just got to keep it got to keep it legit
All right, what else we got guys? Like I told
you guys, I want to keep this space a little bit lighter today. Um, so yeah, if, if anyone want to,
uh, chime in more on the tokenomics or any other subjects you guys want to cover,
any other subjects you want to cover, I just speaking like a poet. Um, if you guys want to
cover anything else, you let me know otherwise i got
the speaker working now so that's one thing i'm gonna play more music for you guys and i hope you
guys like i i love music i've been complimented on my music taste and selection so i hope you guys
enjoy that yeah yeah yeah go for it mark i just wanted to make the announcement for uh the uh the space giveaway if I can.
Yeah, can we get the drumroll?
He will literally have that
We'll have an AI doing it for us.
Can you hear the drumroll? I'm going to play it right now hey hey mark we're gonna call the ai morpheus by the way just
like for our discord i got you tommy
okay but you just go ahead mark you can just share share the results go for it okay um so i just wanted to clarify some
things i saw a comment in the comment section um the last week's spaces were really good but
they didn't even announce 10 winners um that was funny because i'm going to tell you something guys
you got to remember all of our spaces is monitored by an AI bot that, you know, look for the comments
and actually look for the referral link for airdrop. I know the airdrop, the thing is in
very primitive state, but it does catch everybody that is getting the airdrop link from our airdrop
site, their referral link and posting it in the channel. And last week, if you go back and listen
to the spaces, you will that i i was there with
tommy and i was telling tommy tommy i'm looking for the comments and i'm not able to see any comments
there that has a referral link so we announced two winners which was basically the two spots for our
from the 10 the two spots are always reserved for our special community the Raiders the energy Raiders and we announced that but the rest of the eight spot remain unfilled because nobody
participated and went to the airdrop side which is very simple we had all the instructions right
at the start of the spaces so nobody did that so I understand your comment because I can see your
comment uh I think its name is well the shiller
i saw your comment early on in the spaces so i um i am clarifying that point that you know we don't do uh any scams here uh legitimately you need to go and you need to get into the airdrop site and
don't put the airdrop link it has to be a referral link okay that is also one of
the things and guys remember whenever you post any comments so like you know
the comments come up on the spaces like you can see right now there are like 30
comments in the spaces so if you're posting it in the very towards the very
end of the spaces it might not get posted as X is very notorious to lag and
all of that stuff so try to do it we post the the details
of the competition uh you know ahead of time on our our post as well as on the jumbotron on the top
so tommy i do want to say that there this time there are some winners and we will announce it
towards the end of the spaces so guys make sure you stay towards the end of the spaces
winners will be announced towards the end of the spaces as well as...
So make sure you stay towards the end of the spaces.
So after the spaces end and we announce you as a winner,
you have two hours to show up to our Discord and open up the ticket.
So make sure you do that.
We're not scamming anybody.
We're respecting everybody's hard work that are, you know, you guys are coming and taking time and to be in our spaces and support NFT projects and the NFT community, which is widely needed right now.
Yeah, thank you for that, Mark.
Yeah, everyone do remember that you gotta you gotta follow the
instructions because you gotta join our airdrop and why wouldn't you want to join the airdrop
anyway you know get your get your money right you guys listening what we're doing with the
tokenomics you paying attention you know that's how you do it and again our airdrop doesn't end
when we do our tge that's just when the fun
starts baby that's when the fun starts i honestly can't wait part of me is like what it how cool
will it be to have uh the token out on these advanced systems playing but we do need a little
time to get everything set up for it anyway so i will say that you know can't underline the
importance of tokenomics enough and something i've learned through experience and something I take really seriously.
Tokenomics, you got to tune that baby up like crazy.
And if you have a good system there, pair it with a good product.
Sorry, if I can go ahead later on.
Once you're done, Tommy, just have one question after you're done speaking
no that was pretty much you know you got to take tokenomics seriously don't mess around
unless you're unless if you want to win if you want to win you got to go hard so anyway
you go for it tommy uh this is related to the tokenomics as well um so you know, earlier you mentioned about the emission adjustment that, you know, Eric as
a community member proposed for the vote. And it ties to that. Is the liquidity going to be tied,
the farming, right? The farming is going to be tied to a GMI energy pool and GMI ETH pool,
or is it going to be a multi-chain infrastructure? Or are we still in like very early stages where,
you know, it will be built as it goes? Yeah. The long and short answer there
is the first token, the tokens will be from the contract, they'll be emitted on the energy chain.
Why? Because security, boom, you know, benefit of having a blockchain that's specialized in security.
And then from there, we feed it into whatever chains that, you know, like partner chains, Ethereum for sure, obviously, is going to be there.
So you can join liquidity pools there and liquidity pools on other chains
as well too definitely on ethereum and energy um and uh we're of course as we look at our new chain
partners um we're going to aim to make it available there at the very least it'll be tradable on on
any chains that are partners with us so so if i'm an airdrop participant and I got my airdrop, so like the TGE, right?
The token generation event, which will happen.
So I will be getting the tokens first, like the first initial airdrop tokens will be distributed on the energy chain.
I'm giving you some kind of like inner plumbing of it, but like we will have it first emitted on energy.
And then from there, we can direct it to perhaps have a claim pool on Ethereum.
Right. We can fill up that pool and allow people to claim from there directly.
Some people prefer to do that, which make it easy for them.
Nice. And any incentives for farming with the on energy specifically as compared to other chains?
I mean, it's's gonna be juicy rewards everywhere
it you know we might give a bit more on energy just because you know we're we're always loyal
you know for energy like you got to follow the line right so um but yeah it'll be juicy rewards
everywhere you look it's gonna be like a like like easter you know like yeah it'll be good
and tommy i want to share some of my personal insights um um and you know this comes from
i'm a big fan of fan of cloning and uh you know sam walton the founder of walmart used to i
actually made a post uh recently in our team channels uh he used to go and talk to
like small store owners big store owners during his like you know very early days in 1960 65s
um and even even the truck the truckers that would deliver the like you know the merchandise
to the store and that's how he built up walmart and you know the same thing was done by bill gates which bill gates like if you go to microsoft like you know the products are not
originally you know built by them it's like almost clone of other products like ms dos was built by
you know some seattle company um so i think tommy i personally feel uh what is setting dmi apart and
what you're seeing the the traction and the action that's happening on the energy chain, despite, you know, the market condition is boosting up the user incentives in specific, you know, formats.
So like last week we had or right now we are we are having like a trading competition on GMI,
which if you trade on GMI, you get three X points on your airdrop for your volume as well as like,
or on your airdrop for your volume, as well as like, you know, towards the Zeely points.
So I think, Tommy, this is, I think, where you have actually captured the market, which you have
made the users the center of your platform success. And a subset of that is also the collections
because retaining a royalty percentage
because users are going to trade
and then it's going to feed back into them as a reward,
as well as to the collection that is also getting the reward.
And, you know, if you look at our airdrop structure,
like, you know, you will see that we have a user section
that is getting rewarded for the trading activity
and also a creator section, right?
The collections that are having that trading volume.
And I think, Tommy, I think that's the secret recipe of success uh i think you nailed it on very early on where
uh i see the sam walton walton in building right where you are going through different ecosystems
right uh you are participating in different airdrops when the airdrop ends you're absorbing
the ecosystem right uh and then you are listening to the users right their comments their you know
their anger their venting their happiness their thrill and you're cataloging all that journey
and kind of feeding it into uh of the GMI NFT ecosystem,
which is actually going through all of the, you know, multiple chains.
Well said, Dragon. Quick question for you, Dragon.
Were you involved in the Elephants and Spaceboo projects about two to three years ago?
No, no, I don't think so, Cakes cakes I'm going to be very honest cakes so I only got involved in the NFTs when GMI actually went live on the
mainnet so before that it I was I was actually very scared because you know you buy an NFT
I think I think crypto chicks is the only NFT that I held outside of Ethereum.
I think I had Dragon Digest, but I moved it to energy.
But now CryptoChicks is also an energy.
Just because of the fear of the fact that if you're outside of energy, I'm not sure whether my assets are going to be safe.
So I never participated in that NFT ecosystem.
So I never participated in that NFT ecosystem.
But as soon as NFT came to GMI on energy, I mean, my portfolio is filled with NFTs because
I don't have to worry about the security as well as like, you know, I'm going to get
I'm getting actually incentives for holding just holding the NFTs is giving me an airdrop
So, yeah, to answer your question, I did not.
And I explained the reason why I did not.
Sorry, must have been mistaken.
You know, lots of people in the community.
So I always like to reconnect with old friends.
And I thought it was potentially you behind the dragon,
but I was probably mistaken my fault
