no no Hey, Gabby, can you hear me?
I can hear you loud and clear, Mark.
Good morning.
Good morning and good morning, good afternoon, good evening for everybody that has taken their special time on the weekend and joined our spaces, especially to our really strong supporters and the Raiders.
I've been not tending to some of my duties, but absolutely getting slammed at work because
we are just about to launch one of the biggest innovation in the NFT space, which is the
LP bonds.
And as Strami might have just briefed you guys previously, if you guys go now to test.app.gonnamakeit.com,
you will see a new UI.
And then there are a lot of surprises
if you go and check around with the interface and everything.
And we'll discuss this during the spaces, why we, I think there was a major restructuring, Gabby,
and why we did that.
Because some very stark lessons we learned from Polkadot.
And we'll discuss that later during the spaces.
But apart from that, today is like a chill space.
We always want to wipe for these spaces to be really chill and you know users get
take advantage of the knowledge that is coming from these spaces and you know be the early adopters
and so far gmi when we started building gmi we thought of it as only an NFT marketplace but as it's evolving you can clearly see and I shared
some specs with you too Gabby right that it just it's just blending it's bringing DeFi to its glory
days you know one of the major issues with DeFi is the liquidity in DeFi is very punishing it's
very taxing and it's very mercenary so if if you look at a lot of ecosystem, one of the biggest metrics for them is the TVL. And when you think about the TVL, the TVL is not, you know, pretty much safe. It's very fluctuating. It depends upon the market and also if it's if you're not the alpha chain if you're not been in there in the space for a long time really it becomes very mercenary very taxing for projects and blockchains
to actually have liquidity on their chain what buffett monger charlie monger would call as a
business that requires like a huge capital investment and a huge capital requirement to
actually maintain it so we'll be talking more
about that but if you have not looked at it i would suggest you guys go to test.app.gonnamakeit.com
and check the new interface really cool interface um blending d5 plus nft together
all right uh but apart from that uh gab, are you binge watching any shows on Netflix?
Oh, my goodness. I'm trying to stay away. I'm trying to continue to learn in this space.
I mean, you can get really distracted very quickly. So, you know, I'm just trying to, you know, binge watch everything on Twitter or excuse me on x now so this has been kind of like my my my binge just binging here and being
in spaces and actually learning so much from so many different people um i'm telling you there's
never a dull day here on x never so you always learn something new so it's great to be here
yeah what has been your biggest takeaway from last week um uh when you were attending all of
these spaces?
Like, where are projects heading?
What's happening?
Like, you know, where's the noise?
You know what?
A lot of the noise, in all honesty, is in a lot of the legislation that's happening
around, you know, the legislation, what's going on and how we're being seen as something
that, you know, is beneficial and viable and being able to use crypto as a part of payments for goods and
services i think that's the best part to hear that people are now jumping on board and it's
being more of an accepted form of payment actually doing business professional business not just a
small business but even big organizations can take part so i think there's a lot of noise around
legislation and people building and build now before a lot of the legislation starts to come in. So, you know,
start building, keep building, don't give up. It's a builder's market, not a bear market. Okay,
it might, you know, you might see it that way. But this is your opportunity to build before some of
those legislations come into play. So I'm telling you, there's like spaces that I'm in that, you
know, sometimes they're like three hours. So I really understand for those of us who host spaces and
those who attend and take your time to attend these spaces, you learned so much real world
assets and making sure that you understand tokenization of those real world assets.
It's been a lot, but I will say it can be unforgiving at some times, but we need to
know what's going on.
And you can be blinded by, you know, looking at things or listening to things that, you know, that don't pertain to, you know, your project or moving you forward.
So I would just say a lot of the noise is around legislation.
And you see lots of people post, but I love the educational pieces.
And I really want to say shout out to anybody who has a project or developers that you're working hard. You know, you're being seen, you're not being forgotten. And there's people who will take your questions to legislation or to those legislators. So it's important to voice those questions, go in those spaces, network with those people. Your network is your net worth. And that is truly an important thing to
know. So I would just say the noise out here is the acceptance of legislation to crypto and the
blockchain and being able to progress forward. So I would say that's where the noise is right now
and projects as well. Keep building. People do see you. People will invest in you. Don't give up.
Don't leave. Stay consistent. but yes, please take rest.
It's okay to rest every now and then.
So that's where I'll leave it, Mark,
and I'll pass it back to you.
When you were in the spaces
and they were talking about the payment systems
and all of that, were they talking about any specific
to stable coins being accepted as a payment option or was it like an overall
like any token or any crypto? Because you see, I mean, with the wild fluctuations that crypto has,
apart from, you know, stable coins, it's really hard to have other currency being part of like
a payment system, right?
So how is the space taking this?
You know, there was a great discussion yesterday in Yanda space.
And if I can, I can, you know, kind of post it up there in the Jumbotron from yesterday.
It was a three-hour space.
And there was a discussion around, you know, stable coins and legislation around the stable coins. My personal opinion and takeaway is that a lot of people want to get into something that's going to return them a yield.
And that's so very, and I hate to say this, but it's a little narrow to think from that perspective of only receiving a yield.
in different countries that actually just want to stabilize their money because their money
fluctuates so often that they may have to add more money just to buy food or medication.
And we really don't realize how, you know, us wanting to use a stable coin and we won't use it
unless we have some type of return from it, like a yield. And I know I thought about that myself
because I'm like, oh, for example, USDC can yield you something very well if you're a Coinbase member.
Even if you're not a Coinbase member, you can still receive a yield.
But some people don't care about that yield.
What they care about is more of do I have to add more money or more of my country's money to get to the actual dollar just so I can eat for today or just so I can pay for
my parents' medication. And a guy by the name of Mutasco actually came up and brought that message
home. And it made me look at things differently because where I said, oh, well, if I don't get a
yield, I'm not going to invest in it. But sometimes the yield is not what matters to people. It's,
can I make it throughout the day? Can I help somebody else? Can I pay for my parents' medication? It just, that really, you know,
that really took, that really took to heart with me because I don't want someone to have to suffer
to buy their food because they can't make up the difference or have to add more money to what they
use on a daily basis. So I would, you know, honestly challenge us
to think outside of our little small zones
and think that there's a big world out here
and that there are people who actually,
their money is so devalued that, you know,
this cryptocurrency is making a,
making everybody be able to progress in a different way.
So, yeah.
Yeah, actually, this is a very interesting show.
I don't know if you've watched it.
I would suggest you watch it.
It's Narcos Mexico.
And especially the second part where, you know, they are showcasing the life of Mother Korea Fuentes.
It was like one of the biggest like notorious drug dealers
you know if you saw Pablo Escobar he was like 10x Pablo Escobar and he a very interesting story but
the bottom line was that he during his time an interesting thing happened the Mexican peso got devalued overnight due to some
whatever happened we're gonna have I mean I can't go very deep into the financial stuff but
whatever happened and and people will think okay well it well, the worst thing that could happen here is like, you know, people's wages would come down, but they forgot about, they forget to. And now when you devalue your currency, what happens is your pension amount is
fixed in that local currency and you actually are getting half of what you
in value. Okay. The currency remains the same. The value becomes half, which is
extremely dangerous because now they
are like you know not only half like maybe just like one fourth of the value just remaining right
so when that money is coming to you and you don't have a retirement friend
retirement you know corpus that appreciates uh it it's really really bad like that's like waking up and you're seeing
like you know you have a thousand dollars in your account or maybe like two thousand dollars coming
to you right every month and and you are in this flow and you know till you're alive and you're
like happy okay i can take care of my expense i can still live nicely you know pay my rent thousand
dollars pay for the groceries like eight hundred dollars like single person and then still have
some money saved but then when you're looking at the currency devaluation if that dollar amount
value just drops to one fourth then you're actually left to 250 dollars that's waking up to
this nightmare that actually what happened
in Mexico way back in, I think it was around the 90s and 80s. And on the other side, this drug
dealer and notorious person, like, you know, he was on the, well, his major store of value was dollars right because I mean his biggest client
were in the states like unfortunately and and he was he was getting paid in in dollars so
in that country itself he became four times stronger now that's very interesting dynamics that's happening, right? Very interesting.
So imagine if crypto would have been in those times, right?
People could move or have a store of value in other assets.
Is that making sense, Gabby?
Yes, absolutely.
I really do appreciate you explaining that because you're right. You know, even our money, you know, currency, you know, the dollar is being devalued as well, you know, cheaper prices. And so I know a lot of people, you know, may not see that. Some
people may not. But there's a lot of people who do feel the pinch. But there was a space,
and I did post it in the Diabletron. There were lots of things that were talked about
in the title there from yesterday's space. And those spaces normally go for about three hours,
but what really takes it home is the storytelling
and being able to tell your story of what has happened
or what you're currently going through,
sharing those stories and actually having people there
that have the access and go to those meetings
where they can ask you questions in this space,
and then they can take those questions to people that they meet, you know,
through the legislative body, you know,
and be able to ask those questions or bring that information home.
So I would just, you know, ask any and everybody to attend at least one of Yonda's spaces.
I do remember Gummy was there.
I do see a lot of people that were there.
I don't see everybody, but take the time to listen. They're long spaces, but they're definitely worth the listen and definitely worth the ability to take the time to take some notes because you do come back empowered, knowing, having a little bit more knowledge and to be able to speak to something that, you know, you didn't previously understand so i really do appreciate that uh mark you know the explanation there because it affects not just us here in the united states but
affects everybody everywhere um and so we need to be more cognizant about that in this space
uh as we're merging with you know being more of a global you know economic system so i appreciate
that yep and on the other hand like you know, I would suggest everyone to also enjoy life.
Don't punish them.
Punish yourself.
You know, make friends.
Learn from a lot of stuff.
You know, I think what we run at Energy is a Raiders group, right?
I'm always in there.
I'm, like, talking to them um in spite of like you know being
completely bombarded with a lot of work like you know it just it just for me when i see them um
i see them from my early days when i first actually created a twitter account
um using gmail right and it and it took me so it's just like, it's so dumb that, you know,
it took me so much time for me to actually get on Twitter,
like in 2020, right?
After, you know, the whole crypto thing, you know, exploded.
So, you know, we share a lot of things and these things,
these things come from knowledge, right?
And it comes from attending those spaces.
You know, I see a lot of people come and complain like, hey, my account got blocked, my account got, you know, this and
that. And, you know, my suggestion to them is like, you know, hey, you got to treat your account like
a digital real estate, right? Tweet out a lot, tweet your thoughts, make sure you're not, you know, doing any weird stuff.
On the other hand, if you're thinking in a way that, oh, I posted a tweet and nobody
commented and replied for me, like, you know, don't think about that. Like, you know,
think in a different way. Like if you wake up and like, hey, where are my friends on Twitter,
right? Instead of scrolling your screen you should
look for what your your friends are doing what what is your project doing right interesting way
of learning knowledge commenting on them like you know building the network this is how you actually
build and grow your network um and uh if you have a lot of time, you are very lucky. If you're doing this, you know, on your free time,
you're extremely lucky to, you know, expand your network.
And this is actually the right time when the market, like it goes quiet.
This is where you can actually reach out to people.
You can build those connections.
And I've built my fair share of connections, you know, doing this.
I've called out a lot of people and I'm definitely in a
favor of like you know whoever is building surely they're gonna make a lot
of mistakes you know and it's okay at least they're not dishonest and we need
to support them like right and I'll be doing that more as you know as time goes
on like I'll be there in the spaces. I'll try to talk to more people, support them, you know,
comment on their tweets, make new friends, expand the network.
Yep. Yep. Pretty much it. But on the other hand,
have you watched the new Squid Games just released on Friday on Netflix?
I have to tell the truth. No, I have not, you know, my entertainment, and I hate to
say it, Mark, it is, it's pretty much, you know, Twitter and YouTube, because I feel like, you know,
I love to learn, but no, I have not been watching any squid games as of currently, but I might need
to pick up there. It's a very interesting, it's a very interesting show. You know why I so much look at it? Because I don't
look at it as a show, right? I look at it as a person's journey. So this guy, the
creator of Squid Games goes to Netflix in 2012 and he's sending his
transcript like every year, right? 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 16 17 18 19 20 he's sending it all the time right
and he's getting rejected like he's getting rejected rejected rejected rejected all the time
on netflix right and then suddenly he and the crazy part is this guy is completely broke
he's he's in South Korea.
So he's like, he's a South Korean and like, you know, he's staying with his mom.
He's in an apartment and he's like, he has nothing, right?
And he is persistent.
Can you imagine like staying in a flow and being consistent like for eight years?
Like that's, that's really hard to do. Like, you know, when, when when and when you're you when you live in a world
that is like so uh you know this is just chasing material things when if somebody opens a youtube
channel and for a year if they don't get anybody right uh they don't get a lot of traction they
just like drop the idea and stop posting um this guy sent his trans
like his manuscript of squid game part one like all the time right like he's sending it right from
2012 13 14 like all all the time and uh you know he's getting rejected uh so you can actually see his persistence.
Like it just like, you know,
it's absolutely crazy perseverance, right?
He did not give up. Like he's like, you know, in 2015, 16, 17, 18,
he's like, no, shit, I don't want to pursue this.
And given the chance when he,
once he was given the chance, you know,
Netflix did not even put his show on like primetime or advertising.
It secretly snuck it into a section and let people discover it.
And it just blew up.
So that's part one.
And then they come around and tell this guy, like, you know, hey, we need a part two.
Right.
And part two comes in and part two just like blows again. Like,
you know, it's just like absolutely phenomenal. And then they go back again to him and they tell
him, we need the show to conclude, right? So we need the third part. So this guy just locks
him up for like, you know, two months and finishes the manuscript and gets the stuff out.
And this is what building looks like. so when i'm actually watching the show it's actually a reminder
to me like you know like how hard this guy might have worked throughout the entire like 10 12 year
duration and what a masterpiece right um so that's pretty much when you're looking at like you know
squid games it's it's it's really really really just not like entertaining, but also like a piece of art. Like, you know,
it just, it just shows a man's perseverance. And you know what, Mark, I like that you said that
because one thing, you know, is that, you know, we need some motivation sometimes and it's not
easy when you're having, like you said, if, you know, some people, somebody starts a YouTube
channel and then doesn't get any traction on the channel and then all of a sudden wants to give up. This
is not where you give up. This is where you just kind of keep going, stay motivated. And I'm glad
that you found some encouragement there in Squid Games. I guess I have to watch that as well
because I love things that kind of motivate you when you're having a hard time or a difficult
time and, you know, people are trying to help you out, you know, allow them to help you out and give you some encouragement. You know, even if it's
from a movie or it's, you know, from something that you watch that keeps you going, keep doing it
because eventually it will all work out. It just takes time, right? Instant gratification is not,
it's not real as much as we see people, you know, but we don't know how many losses they went through to get to the other side. So the storytelling is a great way to get that information out to
the public. So I really appreciate you saying that, Mark. So I definitely love to hear people
who are just like motivated through, you know, perseverance and not giving up even when people
don't give you a chance, you know, still hang in there, hang in there. You've got this. We've got this. We're all in this space together, and we're here to encourage each other.
You know, it's difficult. So, but yeah, I appreciate that, Mark. I see we have Gumby up here, too.
So, I didn't know if Gumby wanted to say something or chime in. How are you? Good day. Good morning.
Good evening. Good night. Good morning. Good morning. I'm in bright sunny California this
morning, heading to Dodger Stadium for another gum meeting.
But no, I wanted to chime in. Gabby, I really appreciate you speaking on that space.
I was actually in that space about stablecoins, and that was super enlightening.
And I think sometimes, especially as Americans, I'm going to take on us Americans,
we kind of get really hyper-focused on the financial aspect of what's our gain, what's our bag.
But we have to take a broader route, basically zoom out, and understand that there are hundreds of countries that do not have stable currencies and they are desperate for crypto.
And not only that, but we want worldwide adoption and we're not going to get it if we're going to treat it like a gambling ring.
You know what I mean?
So, really good space.
I don't know if you can put it on the jumbotron. I think it's actually worth people's time listening in
for three hours. It was super long and I normally don't have the attention span outside of like 30
minutes, but it was really engaging. So, and then speak on what Mark was just saying too,
you know, the, the idea of this, this term we use, especially in this country is this overnight
success. There is literally no such thing.
Like I'll just use Gummy, for example. I got a pretty successful conversation with the Vegas Knights the other night. But people will look at it and say, wow, that's amazing, great work. But
what they don't see is the 20 no's and slam doors that I got prior to that moment too.
So it's just a call out to people that are building.
I don't care what it is that you're doing.
I don't care if it's in web two or web three,
just keep going.
If you believe in it and you know it's going to be successful,
nobody's going to believe in it more than you.
So if you give up,
certainly nobody else is going to get into it, right?
So just keep pushing forward.
Thank you again.
Again, it's that storytelling.
It's the people who are actually, you know, making these projects or producing these projects
that actually say, you know what, you don't know how many no's I went through to finally
get a yes.
These are the things I believe, you know, that we need to really hear in this space or
the stories that are not, you know, everybody wants this, oh, I did this. And
no, it makes it seem like it's happened overnight. And we know it took some very hard work to get to
this place where you are now. It could take years. And most people are like, years? What do you mean?
I mean, I've even been impatient like that too, where, you know, people FOMO or, you know, say,
oh, I'm not going to do this because it's taken, you know, five, six, seven years.
Sometimes it takes people 10 or more years, you know.
But at what point do people say, well, you're supposed to give up because it's not yielding anything as of yet?
Well, maybe the fruits of our labor are not showing because we still need to do a little bit more of that laboring.
And it's okay to labor, especially like you said, Gummy, if you believe in the project. But I love that you, again, that storytelling, just like Matosco did yesterday and what you're doing today.
More stories like that need to be heard.
You know, hey, I have this project.
I'm getting it up off the ground.
It's been taking me quite a long time.
And I just want to let you guys know, hang in there.
I haven't given up on my project.
You know, whatever that project may be.
So sharing your story keeps people encouraged.
I can just say, like you said, that space was very long and normally it is quite long, but it
definitely, when people normally have a five minute attention span, when there's something to learn
and something to grow from, I don't know, I don't care what it is, your attention span will be there
because of something new that you haven't heard before or that you haven't realized. So there's an epiphany that happens.
So I really appreciate you, Gummy, for sharing not only, you know,
that you were in the space and there,
but sharing your story about how many no's that you received before getting that final yes.
So, or getting those yeses now.
So that's very important for people to hear.
So I appreciate you telling us that and sharing your story with us as well.
So I don't know if other people have stories out there, but share your story so that people can resonate and understand.
You know, even Tommy had come to the space one day and said, you know, I've been at this for so many years.
I, you know, let go of my home to start to invent, to start GMI, you know?
And so really listen to those stories, develop a little bit of empathy.
And some of them you can sympathize because you're going through the same
thing with your project. So, but yeah, thank you, Gummy, for sharing.
Really appreciate you sharing your story. Storytelling does a lot.
So I'll go back and pass it to Mark. And I would just like to ask everybody,
please retweet the space if you can. If you have a question, please
put it in the bubble.
And if you can't see the bubble down there,
then the first
post there in the Jumbotron
or the Nest, you can write your question
under there, and I'll check it just at me,
and we'll make sure that the question gets answered
for you. So, yeah,
that being said, Mark,
I'd like to chime in if you'd like. I see Just Rock down there. Come up if you'd like.
Share your story.
Mark, are you there? I hope I didn't lose you.
I'm here. I'm here. I just wanted to tilt
some of the focus towards Polkadot.
Let me share you one of the tweets that was actually,
you know,
in there. Like, I hope you got it. This is a very interesting tweet. I can't share it publicly because, you know,
I don't want to, you know, downplay any project. I really don't want to do that.
want to, you know, downplay any project. I really don't want to do that. What I call this as a
nuisance value. But, you know, to downplay any project, to go on that thread and like, you know,
be like, hey, look at your chart and all of that. Sometimes it's actually not reflective of what
you have been building, right? And sometimes it is. And and you got to pay attention to that
the one thing i learned from and this is what tommy has been saying and we have been experiencing
right um polka dot as a tech is like superbly great. Like if you look at their tech, it's like very, very great. Right.
But the problem is it never understood the users. Right.
And it actually started at a time where, you know,
the building language for developers was very, very hard to adopt to. And like, you know, the incentives was like, you know, the building language for developers was very, very hard to adopt to.
And like, you know, the incentives was like, you know, very less.
So for example, just to give like, you know, a layman's idea, if you were to build an EVM
blockchain, you can actually do it right now, right?
You can actually build an EVM blockchain by just copying, by forking, you know, Ethereum,
Polygon, you know, even Avalanche or any other EVM chain.
Even you can fork base and you can make your own blockchain.
And you can even start with like two or three nodes.
It's good.
But the easiest part is to fork and, you know, you can get started, right?
Or if you have an application that you want to plug into an EVM chain,
it's not that difficult if you are a developer, right?
Because you know the language and you can plug it in and it becomes like very, very easy.
But when you go to ecosystems like Cardano, Polkadot, or like, you know, any other ecosystem,
unless you have like an extreme, like a good developer support or good developer hub and like all of this,
it becomes really hard.
Now, what happens as a result of that is you don't have a lot of developer
activity, so they can't make killer apps for users, right?
Example, like, you know, people use, I think, the TRX chain for like quickly
i think the trx chain for like quickly sending stable coins right uh so so so you can see like
sending stable coins, right?
how quickly they have created a value on the chain on the tr exchange if you were to form defy uh
activity like you know if you were to farm yield farm you would go to ethereum or solana right
because you know there's so much uh for regular users that you can start from really basic stuff
to like really advanced stuff like concentrated liquidity pools and all of that stuff.
So what I have been hinting, right?
What I observe here is the fact that if you are, everybody wants to work in Web3 and everybody wants to have that on their profile and it looks very glamorous.
But at the end of the day, people don't realize when they actually come to work in Web3 and they want to build a career in Web3, it's extremely brutal.
And if you can survive and thrive, you are here. This is going to be your career.
This is like being in the
IT space way back in 1995 right you were actually building up your own career like you know this is
like starting YouTube in like 2012 like you're being very early so imagine what how much compounding
you will actually achieve over the period of like one year two year three years so the bottom line is if
you're building listen to your users 80 if you are a builder in the space uh put your user hat 80
of the time and uh you know uh put put the developer hat only 20 of the time don't be
a developer where you're like you put put the developer hat and, you know,
you're like 80% developer and 20%, you know, just the user. Just a very stark reminder. And
I've been, we've been hammering this in our organization itself, like, right.
You can't be coming to me and telling me like, hey, Mark, I'm just a developer.
I don't do this.
So we don't, we don't, like there's no value that would come out positively for you if you are not part of the spaces.
And if you ideally look like I follow some really good Twitter accounts, right?
Look at, look at Sandeep from Polygon, right?
He took over charge as CEO.
This is not to support me supporting them
or like, you know, an endorsement for the project
and to buy their token.
No, this is not, absolutely not.
Always do your research.
I never promote any project's token
or I'm not shilling them.
You can barely see, even if energy pumps,
like, you know, I never share the charts or i never make
a tweet or anything like that like you know it's i i but i what i do is i do tweet about the value
um that the project offers uh so um you have good twitter accounts here like sandeep uh and
anatoly yankovic from Solana Labs and all of these people,
these are big developers, right? They have been active right from the days of, I don't know if
you guys ever have come across Bitcoin talk. It's like an early Bitcoin chat forum, you know,
there's like all the nerdy people would hang out and then crypto twitter just blew up
there's like all the nerdy people would hang out and then crypto Twitter just blew up.
so if you see a common trend the most successful web3 developers are spending a lot of their times
on project discords on on x you know that's how they're actually growing that's how they are like
you know taking advantage of the network um so the whole discussion that i'm bringing to everybody's
attention is the fact that you know if you're you're a project, if you're building, like, you know, listen to your user, build killer apps, make your onboarding process very seamless.
Like, it should be very easy, right?
And thanks to, I've been like, I've been very blessed with being surrounded by a lot of people, like, you know, that, that agreed to this vision.
that agreed to this vision.
And that's where we're learning from the mistakes
of big projects, big applications,
and making sure that we don't repeat them.
And that's how we actually built LP Bonds, right?
So when you had the first iteration of lp bonds
uh we were like okay we as a company will make the lp bonds and people can buy it
that was the first iteration and it was very simple right um uh and then we had uh you know
And then we had, you know, small, medium and large and all of that.
But we wanted market to take, you know, to take to basically be the driving force behind it, because that would show like whether you've created true value or not.
And the first iteration, we were not actually even working on the micro TG of GMI token, right?
So it was something where the first version of LP bonds were, you know,
were being made with a token that was like a precursor to the GMI token.
And that would give you the yields in GMI tokens,
even before the token launches
to create more activity and more early adopters of the LP bonds.
But then as you understand and go more deep into the system and understand the mistakes
of others, we realize that this is not going to cut it. Like, you know, we're seeing what users are asking for.
And, you know, here they are looking at it and they're saying, like, you know, we need to have a value attached to GMI.
Right. And the best way to do that is micro TGE.
So second version is like you know uh most about like having um to let the users um make the bonds
right so you have micro tg the token comes out we're talking about we already talked talked
talked about this in previous last two spaces tommy was there so people would go when they have the
when they get the gmi token from micro tg not more than 2 million GMI token would be released during that phase.
You take it to Uniswap and then, you know, you actually pair it with ETH and then, like, you know, you come back and make that LP bond.
This is too complex.
What hit us with Polkadot, right?
The process is very complex.
The learning curve for ordinary users is very complex.
Imagine you using a Visa or MasterCard,
and then you have to go through,
like, you know, just to make a $1 payment,
you have to go through the hoops, right?
Nobody wants that, right?
And to be fair, when you look at the developer,
the developer would come and say,
well, you got to do it, right? You got to do it this way, this way, this way. They're not look at the developer, the developer would come and say, well, you got to do it, right?
You got to do it this way, this way, this way.
They're not looking at the user, right?
So hence my advice is switch yourself as a user when you're building products in Web3.
And that's how you're going to be successful.
So hence the final iteration of LP Bonds came in, which is, you know, we're testing it on the test net.
You guys can always go and, you know,
you guys can check it on test.app.gonamakeit.com.
But basically what happens is we have truncated the bonds
into four types of bonds, small, medium, large, and Excel.
And it's suited for every user, right?
You could be a retail user with ten dollar in your
pocket and you could be like a big whale with ten thousand dollar in your pocket and you can delve
into uh you know getting these products and uh you know um the easiest way we always left the
market to decide right the fate of gmi right because that's where the market forces come in you can buy that
token or you can you can have that token you know from the pool now this is
always not a suggestion to buy GMI token you can once you once you have an
equal amount of GMI and ETH token right which as goes with any DeFi farming you
can go to our interface and you can actually
lock it right and you can make the lp bonds uh and you can make any kind of bonds you want like small
medium large excel and the platform will give you an estimate like hey okay you have these ingredients
you have these many tokens and this is how many types of bonds you can make. And then you can lock it.
It's a one-click lock.
Like you lock it.
You're trying to create the LP bonds.
You do that.
Just sign just one message in Metamask.
Boom.
Your LP bonds is created.
It's in your wallet.
Now you start accruing the APY, which is, by the way, over 100% APY for these bonds.
It might increase as well. Cumulative compounding APY. It's by the way, over 100% APY for these bonds and might increase as well.
Cumulative compounding APY, it's going to be huge.
And so now you have LP bonds, you have the position, you have the liquidity position,
you know, it's accumulating the rewards and everything.
And down the road, you really don't want to have that LP position, right?
So now you can actually sell your LP bond, which is like an NFT.
You can go to our NFT marketplace and you can sell that bond, right? If you have 10 of the small bonds and you don't want to have that many baggage,
you just want to have seven of them, you can do that.
It's impossible for you to do that in the traditional
d5 version where you have a liquidity position right you what you will have to do is you will
have to unbond the liquidity go to the original tokens and then sell it it creates a sell pressure
you know markets go up and down it just creates like a huge pressure, which is completely reversed
when you, through these LP bond mechanism
that actually Tommy invented.
And so the platform is live on the test net
and this is, we are just on the testing phase.
You know, we are approaching towards the micro TGE,
really working hard every day, trying to get this
done. There's a lot and lot and lot and lot and lot of technical things involved, a lot of
development things. And it's a fun journey. But it's a lot of learning. So you get your LP bonds,
you start accumulating the rewards, you have four different kind of holdings. And, you know,
you basically get it. Now, here, the most important factor here is you have to also
understand that this is like you living in the most advanced city in the world where you have
like flying taxis right but you're forgetting the fact that the city started from scratch, right? It started from few houses, then it grew to like a little village,
then to a town, then to a city, then to a big metropolis, right?
So it always started with the road, right?
And the road I see here is energy, the energy blockchain.
Because when we are building all of this,
we can securely build a lot of features on the energy blockchain because when we are building all of this, we can securely build a lot of
features on the energy blockchain and then port it over to Ethereum.
It's very interesting.
So that's the road, that's the infrastructure, right?
Now you have the highways and the innerways and your bridges and all of that.
That's the NFT marketplace. And that's what actually propels the next wave of innovation, right?
When you are consistent in the building.
So we started with the blockchain, then you have a killer app, GMI.
We have an airdrop system attached to it.
And then finally, we have LP bonds, the next wave of DeFi innovation.
All of this needs, this is all infrastructure stacked on top of each other.
And they're like, you need all of those.
You can't just go like, hey, i'm gonna go and build an nft marketplace
right it just takes because if you were to build on any other blockchain the blockchain has a
vulnerability you'll get exploited uh you're building on energy you are testing a lot of
features you know you go for bug testing you open it up for bug test the worst that's going to happen
is somebody's going to steal it like you, you know, but the governance comes into place, protects the users, protect the developers,
you know, and you can seal off a lot of vulnerabilities
in the code structure, in the smart contracts,
you know, hope that makes sense.
So that's basically the TLDR of, you know,
what user-focused building looks like.
You want to make killer apps, but at the same time, like, you know,
when you're building and you're trying to make the killer apps,
your foundations need to be strong.
You know what?
And thank you, Mark, for explaining that.
And I know it was probably a lot for people to wrap their head around.
So as you're going back to listen to these spaces, and I do, you know,
would like to mention, please go back and listen to the spaces make sure you're retweeting but I do we see we
have a hand up and I'm not sure if the hand is to some of the information that
you were just discussing mark so I want to go over to Del Pizza I do believe
Delphi Pizza or Del Pizza I'm sorry didn't let me know how to pronounce your name i have my glasses on
go ahead hello sir can you hear me now yes we can okay sir my question is what does community
feedback play in the development of your project my My question, sir. Thank you.
I would definitely suggest you rewind the space and listen to it because I think I spent like 10, 15 minutes on it.
Good question.
And I would ask you to make sure that you go and check the spaces back.
And thank you so much for the question.
Thank you so much for the question. Thank you so much for the question.
And definitely we know people come in and come out of the space and may not have heard,
so it's imperative that we go back and listen to those spaces as well.
And definitely if you have any other additional questions, please feel free to, you can at
me in the very first post at the top.
And if you do have a question, we'll make sure that it gets answered.
So thank you again.
Luna, thank you for having your hand up.
How are you today?
Yes, do you have a question about some of the information that you just heard just recently?
Yeah, my question is, what partnerships or my store with energy targeting the next 12 months to drive mainstream adoption?
That would be GMI.
GMI is the biggest partnership driver.
If you look at our interface, we are live on multiple things.
It is bringing us, you know, it's opening up a lot of opportunities and you will see
that shortly in the coming weeks with our launch
of LP bonds. So yeah, keep an eye out on us.
Thank you, Luna, for your question. And again, if anyone has any questions pertaining to
any of the information you heard about the LP bonds, or if you just need a moment to
wrap your head around them, I know I do too. So it takes a little bit of time, but if you
have any questions, please feel free to at me in the first tweet at the top or the very first post
and we'll get those questions answered. I do look at those quite often. So if you have any
additional questions, we'll make sure to be able to ask. There was a question that did come up mark and I want to say you're probably going to
talk about it towards the end in reference to the weekly competition the weekly competition so that's
the only question that we've had so far but I will say with the LP bonds I know I know people like to
say when and most people say soon.
So is there a close launch data as to when
they're expected to happen?
Is it like, does it take a little bit longer?
The quarter or the market conditions that will allow
for the launch of the LP bonds?
I won't put a timeline on this one.
So I would just say like, you know, come to our spaces,
look at our X announcement,
but you can check it on the test net right now.
And, you know, we go through
a very rigorous quality testing process, right?
We first test it internally for almost like a whole week.
Once we have enough confidence, we go to our special testers.
These are a group of people like, you know, these are very alpha group of people that we go to and then we go to
the community and then once it's good on the community and this is all by the way going on
the test net then we go ahead and you know launch on the main net so I won't I would not say that
it will take us months that's that's the bottom line and i would say so keep an eye on this one but i'm not putting
any timelines on this one uh because as you can see we are on the third iteration and the reason
why we are on the third iteration which i think it's like 99 percent like that that version should
be the way this is because we wanted for the users to to be as easy as possible
uh and not in a very complex mode i hope i hope this answers it yes it does i see that gummy uh
wanted to unmic so i'm not sure if gummy had a question uh i'm not, Fox, if you have a question. Make sure everybody in this space, listening to this space, check the testnet.
I think we're not glossing over it. I won't say that.
But I don't think people quite understand the innovation here.
This has never, ever been done.
This is probably the most innovative thing that has come out of crypto in a while.
So it would behoove of everybody to really dive deep and understand
what a liquidity bond is and how this is going to function, energy, GMI, and really get a good
grasp because it's going to be beneficial to everybody. And this is going to be something
that is talked about for a very long time. You know, Kami, thank you for adding to that
because, Mark, you had mentioned that you use, you know, alpha people.
So you already have some alpha testers and then now you're looking for the community.
So and I know it's, you know, it's kind of sounds optional, the community.
You know, we want you to go out and try it. But honestly, feedback is a good thing.
And so I definitely, you know, wrote down the, you know, test.app.gonnamakeit.com
so that people can go out there and really test it and give feedback.
So they're looking for us as a community to go and test it out.
So I think we should give it a try.
Let's test it to see if it works because it sounds so nonchalant.
You're like, hey, community, yeah, go test it.
But honestly, you already had your alpha testers,
and you really need the community to do their part as well. And it's okay to have a call to
action, right? So our call to action is to go out and test and give feedback, you know, go into the
discord, you know, there's a general chat, or I mean, I'm sure Mark, you probably don't want
everybody flooding your, your, your DMs with feedback. So what is the best way to get feedback once someone goes out,
a community member goes out and does the testing of the app
and has some feedback?
How should they give the feedback?
We have it on our Discord.
So we have a channel called Report Box.
But, Gabby, I just want to let the general testers know
that we don't release it to the general testers until we inform them.
And mostly we do it on Discord.
So if you're not on the Energy Discord, please go to energy.world.
Scroll at the bottom of the site.
That's our official website.
And just click on the Discord icon and just hop onto our discord and look for
the announcement. And that's how we have done our launchpad or, you know, a lot of features on GMI.
And the other thing is like, you know, just keep an eye out on our announcement. Now,
when we go from, so this is the whole flow, right right we go from the internal developer testing to
uh special tester group to community uh we release this with special instructions to them so unless
it reaches to the general community it it you if you try to test it they're like specific instruction
like go here do this do that like you know so if you're
if you're trying to like you know if it's still in a phase where the the the developers are testing
it um i would just say like you know at this point of time if i tell you like and i go and
look at the platform just try to you know uh take a peek at it uh Don't, you know, don't try to test anything so far because we give like special instructions to do this, like, you know, or else it will be chaos because if it's not, it's like a, it's like a nicely orchestrated dance.
instruction or like an orchestra basically like you know being you're playing a symphony and like
you know everybody needs to be in line or else like everybody will like you know there are 10
people testing and then like you know there's a bug and it's already been resolved and then 10
people simultaneously reported it wouldn't make sense so yeah that's that's a process so if you
have uh uh if if the announcement comes to you and you're part of these groups,
try to test it and it's specific to the instructions.
I hope that makes sense, Gabby.
Yes, it does, Mark, because you're right.
You don't want a chaos situation
where everybody's reporting the same bug.
So that does make sense.
So thank you for explaining that.
And I see we have Mr. Miglis up, and I'm not sure if you had a question for Mark pertaining to what you heard so far.
Go ahead.
Hello, sir.
I'm out of the room.
I'm out of the room.
Hello, sir.
I'm sorry.
Could you repeat that, please?
My question is, ambassador play a very important role in everyday.
Do you have Ambassadors program?
Okay, Mr. Miggles, we're not going to...
I think we may have to replay the space back.
So sorry about that.
But yeah, I... I didn't quite catch that question what was the
question actually gabby did you catch it um i thought it came about community again
okay ambassador play very important. Do you have campus program? Mr. Mikkel, I would tell you something okay.
This is crypto queen is not here but I would have loved her to be here because you know
I learned this thing from her very very carefully. Regarding the ambassador program and regarding the
community support, I would tell something this is very important, you never hire mods in a project.
Mods are people that are basically fanatic about the success of your project, right?
That basically has contributors and all of that. So our ambassador program is designed in such a way
like right now Foxen is part of Gummy Invasion, but he's also our ambassador for energy.
Amfiti is also our ambassador for energy.
I mean, these people are not driven by monetary gains or some rewards,
but actually are vested in the success of the project because they align with the vision. So if you want to try out for the Ambassador Program,
you have to show up every day.
That's absolutely necessary.
Hop onto our Discord.
Go to the energy.world site.
Be part of our ZLE crew.
Support us on the project.
Don't be a grifter.
And I'll give you an example on my end as well, how not to be a grifter. Okay. And that's, that's, you know, keep participating on
a daily basis. You don't need to spend like huge amount of time, like, you know, even five minutes
of your time on a daily basis is way more than enough to support your favorite projects that you want to become ambassador about. Learn about the project. Don't try to
force yourself into the project. This is how I actually started way back in 2021.
Discord has the feature where you could get into a discord without having to create an account
i think so way back in these early days and you can actually watch the chats without verification
um and then that's how i started with the energy right i would just observe what's happening on a
daily basis like what was the chats around like you know what what were people talking right and
from there you know i started increasing my my participation. I had my first node.
I kind of built my stuff around that.
So I was contributing on a daily basis, learning on a daily basis, learned a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot.
The money can't buy this knowledge.
This is what I would say when somebody would go to a university, a big university, a very prestigious university
and learn all of this. So yeah, so this is basically for the ambassador program that
you're talking about. Be active in the community. We have a special raiders group and we are screening
for quality of the individual that joined the group.
We are actually very strictly curating the quality right now.
Right now, I'm slammed with a lot of work on the tech side because I want to deliver a lot of good value
for our community, our ecosystem,
and users that have been supporting us for a very long time.
Obviously, it takes time to build.
But curate your twitter account very nicely. Don't have a lot of spammy stuff on your timeline.
Talk good about the projects, learn more deep about the projects, share your personal
insight about the project and that's how you get the ambassador program, ambassadorship for energy. You know,
you just have to show up every day, you know, learn more about what a project does, you know, be part of our ZD group, you know, try to raid with us. Even if you're not raiding, it's completely
okay to show up every day, hop onto our Discord, make some tweets about us you know and and you i'm not asking this
for a completely zero value to you right uh if you're doing that right now uh you are getting
rewarded in the x airdrop uh gmi x airdrop well right now it's 2 million airdrop there are 21
million total tokens in season with the current season that's going on so it's not that you're not getting
anything you will be getting rewarded in the GMI tokens towards the end of the airdrop hope that
answers the question Gabby do you want to move to Batabillion? I see them on the speaker panel as as well welcome back to billions hey thank you yeah good morning good morning great space yeah
i jumped in spade as uh late as well so i'll be sure to rewind and check out but i hopped in
at a good time it is really exciting uh all the things that's going on on energy and gmi
um feels like feels like there's a little maybe a little momentum or a shift change in the interest in NFTs.
But regardless, we build and we keep moving forward.
So yeah, just a little bit for those who don't know, we've been in these spaces before.
But I'm Cody or Kelkwak from the Bad A Billiards team.
We are minting.
We are closing the mint by end of day today.
So we've been minting on GMI using their really cool,
their 80-20 refundable mint,
which, again, gives builders incentive to move forward,
but it also gives some security to minters themselves.
So, yeah, check us out. End of day, we close the mint 400 energy and some stuff coming up that we are excited to share.
But, yeah, grab a piece of Zach's art. We also have a biweekly space.
So every other week we run a little trivia game, which we just did.
So shout out Fab down there in the audience. Beat Zach in our in our trivia game which is a lot of fun but yeah no it's a it's great to be
here I had a conversation with Mark the other day and and I if I can add it's it's been a real
learning experience but an eye-opener to to be connected with a team that's so well put together. So for those who don't know,
we originally minted, we'll say the OG collection on Ethereum and, you know, lack of support
to a degree. And then, you know, we were on OpenSea, which does not favor builders, so to speak.
So moving over to energy and using GMI has been a breath of fresh air.
So, yeah, we're excited.
Yeah, for those who don't know, check us out.
Definitely give us a follow.
But, yeah, today is your chance to grab a piece of Bade Billiard art
and mint yourself an NFT on GMI.
Thank you, Bade Billiard Art and Mint Yourself at NFT on GMI. Thank you, Bade Billiards.
Thank you for stopping by and coming by.
So if you want to get that mint,
I tried to put it up there in the nest,
but I'm not sure if it really took
because I can't see it.
So if you would like to put it up there again
or if anyone can see it,
we'd love to have it up there in the day.
So thank you for coming by
and thank you for stopping in.
But you know what, Mark, I wanted to also kind of, you know, come back to what you said.
And when you're telling people to be consistent and you're telling them how to show up, because I love that, you know, people love to tell you about consistency and being consistent in a space.
But they don't necessarily tell you how. What is it that you're looking for in order to to be successful to be someone that could be viewed as a trusted member that can join a team so i really do
appreciate you mentioning those ways on how to show up uh and if you hadn't heard it it's something
to go back and listen to so i really appreciate that mark um for for for saying that but uh i'm
super excited about the liquidity bonds i have to go back to that too i'm super excited about the liquidity bonds. I have to go back to that too. I'm super excited for the liquidity bonds and when they come and definitely want to go to
the website test.app.gottamakeit.com to test it out and just, you know, just see how everything
goes. So this is exciting, a super time and thank you and Tommy and the rest of the team and the
devs for everything that they do on a daily and weekly basis.
And necessarily can't be here to always talk
about the project, but definitely send ambassadors,
like you said, and to people who speak to the project
and can help hold spaces to keep things going
as work is being done in the background.
So I appreciate you and the team for what they all do.
So yeah, Mark.
Yeah, no, thank you. I'm actually going back and forth, back and forth working with the devs.
And there's a great part about building, right? You're actually seeing the product come to fruition.
It's been absolutely a pleasure to do that. Yeah. So yeah um if you want to view it like you know how lp bonds actually
looks like you can actually go to a test site and actually take a look at it this is a huge game
changer by the way um very very um because we are starting with with gmiTH pool, right? And this could be extended to a lot of ecosystem, including energy,
and a lot of tokens, right? It's actually bringing DeFi and making it less mercenary.
Do you understand, Gabby? So let me tell you an example. And let me ask you a question, Gabby
Let me tell you an example.
And let me ask you a question, Gabby and Eric here, as well as Better Billiards, you know, since you guys have the mic.
If you were given three businesses, okay, which one would you prefer?
The first business where you buy it and you buy it for $100 and you put every year you have to put a hundred dollars, uh, but you're making only
$20 out of it.
Okay.
Um, or you're just bare, sorry, you're, you're barely breaking even, right?
That's the first business.
Like you, um, you are putting, you bought the business for a hundred dollars.
Now you have to put like a hundred dollars every year.
Uh, and it, this might also increase. And also you're just breaking even, like you're just making break even. you bought the business for a hundred dollars now you have to put like a hundred dollars every year
and it this might also increase and also you're just breaking even like you're just making break even the second type of business is you bought it for a hundred dollars
uh your maintenance is like you have to pay like hundred dollars just like the previous business
because you're actually making twenty dollars out of it and the third type of business is you bought it for a hundred dollars, but
you don't have to do any CapEx, which is basically like you don't have to put any money into the
business and it generates you like an 8% to 10% returns every year. So my question is very
straightforward, right? Which is the kind of
business that you want to own among all the three options I gave you?
That's a good question. So the first one, I just wanted to make sure that I understood
you're breaking even. The second one, you're making $20. Okay. okay and so and then the next one you're only making eight
percent return is that yeah so first business is you bought it for a hundred dollars right say it's
a restaurant or something right um then every year you have to pay a hundred dollars out of your
pocket and then you are just breaking even the second type of business is like you know hotel
or anything like you bought,
you paid $100. All the three business you're buying it for $100, right? The difference is
the first business you're putting $100 from your pocket and you're making nothing like it's just
break even. You're not on a lawsuit. Sometimes maybe, but not all the time. The second business
is you have to put like $100 every year out of your pocket, but you're actually making, you know, say 8%, right?
Same thing.
The third business is you bought for $100.
You're investing nothing out of pocket every year in it to maintain the business, but you're actually making 8% every year.
So which one?
Yeah.
The last one sounds very appealing but you know some differences
between the scenarios you mentioned in the last scenario making that whatever eight to ten percent
but no maintenance as well i mean that one that one sounds appealing in a lot of different ways
that's that's the the clear definition of what uh you know charlie and munger would call
them as a uh like an excellent business right they categorize business as as uh as um poor good and
the the best business and in real world they've classified the poor businesses like airlines right when you
buy airlines company huge requires huge amount of capital to maintain there's a lot of cost
involved and all that and then you can barely break even um the second type of business it
would be like a restaurant or something right uh restaurant chain where you're making revenue but
also like from that revenue a
certain portion of it of your profits goes into maintaining the business and then you earn like
eight percent out of the invested capital the third kind of business you just buy it and you
never have to invest anything like it just goes on and goes it's almost like royalty right
you create a music that's your first investment like a hundred dollars to you know
make uh or in the real world that would be disney right you don't have to pay mickey mouse you don't
have to pay mini mouse and they're not going to go for labor strike or anything right you can keep
on making the movies and you know they're not going to come and talk to you like hey as an actor i
need some money so there's like no investment involved in maintaining the business
right and that's where i want you guys to focus on uh defi gotta focus on defi like that
and i've been following this since 2021 2022 and people are actually bewitched by the fact that you
know they come and talk to the chain so you shut down the
farming there's nothing there guys got to understand one thing a business needs to be profitable
you can't just build a business just because people want it right it that's that's a complete
opposite that's what happened with Berkshire Hathaway when it first started as a company right
it had to shut down all these mills that made clothes, right? Because
they had a superior competition from overseas. The business didn't make sense. It didn't make
sense to have hundreds and thousands of people employed and the company was bleeding money.
That is where DeFi, the first versions of DeFi are at. We have changed that. Like, you know,
Tommy has already mentioned about inventing the lp bonds right
that has what has changed uh through lp bonds now you bring back defi through the nft route
uh which is not possible in regular token economics like you know these positions these
tokens like remain and why do we do that because it avoids the sales pressure
it avoids mercenary uh capital investment right uh or mercenary actors in in the liquidity system because if they don't see the value they're just going to dump it and they're going to run away
uh but at the same time it also safeguards user right because now they have an option
they have a liquidity position and and they can trade right? They don't have to wait for like a day or two days or six months or
one year. Obviously, I mean, they would be on the losing side if they won't be getting the rewards
because obviously they hand over the liquidity to the others and the person holding it gets a
liquidity. And that's what is being created through the LP bonds, which is,
you know, we're bringing DeFi and NFT innovation, coupling it together. And you can extend this to
multiple tokens and farming will be back, right? You can extend it to GMI USDC pool, or like,
you know, you can have each USDC pool. And that's what we have been saying right from the start like gmi will
drive a lot of demand for uh energy and it's already has been doing that uh if you guys look
at like you know the our marketing efforts like it it you can't just go in six months and say like
we did the twitter spaces and we're done like i think our first spaces were like we literally
started like towards the end of 2023, like October, November,
that's when we started. And right now we are like here,
like one and a half years later, we're doing this,
some of the things very consistently. It's getting a lot of exposure.
We have new people come and join many projects actually onboarded on energy.
And we're learning aggressively. Like, you know, we've built in,
we have a lot of AI automations in our company.
And the great thing about AI is it's not going to complain.
I have built my own AI assistant.
It's still a work in progress, but it's not like it's going to take me a century.
It's just a few weeks because every week it goes on and on.
And it never complains to me.
Like, you know, it never misses anything.
It never tells me like, oh, I'm sorry.
I have this thing and that thing.
It just keeps on going on.
That's what we have instrumented in our company.
We're using Cursor AI, faster development, faster timelines, you know,
faster concept, faster onboarding.
This has been absolutely phenomenal.
And so you will see those results coming in soon.
It's imagine like you start a YouTube channel and after five years,
you just reached your first 1000 subscriber. But now every year for the next
month, you keep on adding 500 people to your subscriber. Right?
So, and it just compounds every, every month that you go. So that compounding, you are on adding 500 people to your subscriber, right? So, and it just compounds every
month that you go. So that compounding, you are seeing it right now. We're moving faster
and a lot of value being added. If I can jump in, Mark, I want to add, so I feel like as somebody
who's been in the space for a while, like we've heard like DeFi and farming and
liquidity pools and whatnot. And I've dabbled, like I've tried it because you want to take
advantage of, you know, what that has to offer. Like you said, even returns over a longer period
just by providing liquidity or whatever that might be. But the concerns that I've always had
are primarily two things. One is security, right?
When you are like signing over or handing over liquidity or your tokens to offer as such,
you're concerned that whatever the protocol might have a hack or I mean, we've heard this
over and over again.
So that's always a concern.
And that is something that I mean, I could feel so much better about using energy because of the level of security with it. So that's really exciting to hear. The second one is on Ethereum. I remember putting some up and then I remember to unstake it or, you know, pay for the transaction on Ethereum. It was like over $20. And I'm like, I'm, you know know half my gain um so to speak yeah it's just and so those problems
are both sort of low transaction costs on energy and the level of security so yeah again this is
really exciting i think uh you know for those who don't know this is a huge step forward in a lot of different ways so it's great yeah um i actually have a very uh
sound memory of that one uh when i first take my matic coin and uh i think their value was like
a hundred dollars and then for unstaking it they were asking me to pay like 200 in gas fees and
all of that contracting
so it's fun and it's okay like you know that's a part of the whole process right the space is
growing it's it's it's evolving and you know a lot of things are happening so and that's
how the ecosystem actually grows right um and um you know uh uh as'm telling you, not all the time.
So, Gabby, did you see what I shared with you regarding Polkadot?
I did.
It's actually in my dashboard, and I was actually looking at it.
Yeah, I was looking at it.
Yeah, and this is where, like, you know, and I'm not saying that it is dead okay i mean there's a lot
of smart people in that project and they they will definitely do a lot of turnaround and this is all
what it requires right it means like you know you are uh you you are basically like innovating you
see like okay this is not working and then you then you go and start working on the next one um
working and then you go and start working on the next one.
And yeah, consistent learning.
And this is, and on the other end of the spectrum,
you have projects that are giving so much value and they're being overlooked.
Like I think energy is like a prime example, right?
You won't have a lot of innovation that is happening on GMI without energy
because we built and tested a lot of projects,
a lot of our products on GMI starting from energy.
And it gives us a freedom to do that,
like right a lot of testing and a lot of like you know bug reporting and a lot of stuff
like, right, a lot of testing
and a lot of like, you know,
bug reporting and a lot of stuff.
so it won't be possible without you know without without energy so the the thing here that I'm
talking about is you're evaluating the value that a project is giving and sometimes the market does
not value it correctly I mean look at helium right Helium, right? I don't know. And I've heard
this like a lot of times too. It's the only project that has, you know, is like a crypto
cell phone carrier, right? It's the only project that you can actually buy the cell phone services.
It's the only project that has a worldwide network for
you know deep in which which falls under RWAs and the price is not reflecting the value. I mean
they have charts and metrics in real time where they will show you how many users across US and
Mexico have actually subscribed to their cell phone service and how it's working. Like I'm using
you know it's not an endorsement
of the project remember to always to do your research but these are two spectrums right where
there is there is very little value being given to the user right and the market is actually
accounting for that and then the other hand is um you, you have a good project that is actually giving you the value, but the market is also not accounting for that.
So, like, on one end of the spectrum where the value is actually corresponding to what it's giving, right, is reflecting in the price.
And then on the other end of the spectrum, the value is not, you know, similar to what the price is reflecting in the price and then other on the spectrum the value is not uh you know
similar to what what the price is reflecting uh hope that makes sense
mark i did i did want to ask you know when it comes to polka dot and some of the
the forums and what it comes to uh and how it's run uh is the is is the way that they are running their forum and what they're doing.
Because looking at some of the information that you sent to me,
I was just looking it over about how they run their forum and how they do business
or how you see that they do business.
Do you find that beneficial or not beneficial?
What errors or what possible ways could they improve
or need to improve or do better
or anything that was a takeaway message from Polkadot?
Listen to your users, build killer apps,
reward your user, build a good system around your user, make the developer onboarding very, very efficient and very quick.
This is what I have been doing for the last whole week, which is like it's heavily discounted.
that anybody that comes into your ecosystem that can quickly, you know, go ahead and build and fork your systems and build on your blockchain, something like that.
So that's the first step is, you know, inviting innovators to your space. Right.
It's almost like a country. Right. You have a country. Right.
And you invite all the big talents from all over the world and you give them all the perks and everything and make sure that you know they're not unfairly treated uh you give them every advantage uh to grow and you know what in
terms what's going to happen it's you're going to grow uh exponentially because you're not investing
in the cap in their capital because see these people these uh these projects just like people
that come into a country like you know you don't spend the tax money on their education or their health
you know or their birth and all of that that has been done like that that critical part has already
been done by their native countries right so they're coming and bringing the talent to you
similar to goes in the analogy goes to the blockchain they have they already have the talent
you got to treat them with respect you got you got to open more opportunities for
them you know and and you have to make their onboarding extremely simple you've got to let
them thrive you've got to give them all the tools and then you will see major innovation also also
the biggest thing is you have to absolutely filter right because there's always going to be a lot of
people trying to approach you and you got to make sure that you know the value that they're
providing is actually going to bring a lot of users and traction into the into your ecosystem
so that's that's like the first thing um and it's i i don't even need to you tell those people right
it's clearly mentioned in that post if you look at the post that I sent to you, it's like, they need killer apps. They need onboarding for developers very easy. They need like,
you know, users using their ecosystem to have like lesser, you know, learning curve.
Like it should be very easy. It should be as easy as clicking like one or two buttons
and understanding all the system works. It's just very small paragraphs and like, you know,
one, two sentences and that should do it.
I mean, how many of us do actually know
what kind of consensus like, you know, in the space,
like what Ethereum uses, what is zero knowledge proof,
what is aggregation layer, right?
Nobody wants to even know about that.
They just want to know like, you know, what app they can use,
what value it provides to them, whether it's monetary or whether it's like, you know about that. They just want to know what app they can use, what value it provides to them,
whether it's monetary or whether it's entertainment.
So that's what they're actually looking for.
That's the first thing that they're looking for.
So that's the two most important things. I would also comment on the governance.
If you look at the tweet,
and again, I don't want to publicly put the tweet out
because I don't want to pull the blockchain out.
That's why I only shared with you, Gabby.
One of the things that Polkadot has in their system
is the governance.
This is very important and very,
that's why I'm saying like energy has everything
for it to be successful.
We're just, it's just a matter of time. Right.
And it requires constant building.
Anybody could go and scoop up a lot of polka dot and like, you know,
and just go for, you know, hijack the governance walls. Right.
Very dangerous. you know hijack the governance boards right um very dangerous um and
it's it's almost like you know uh new people coming into the town and hijacking the entire town's decision making where the natives like you know who have been supporting the project for a
very long time like you know building in the town living in the town like you know you
know doing a lot of activities in the town get marginalized why because now like you know they're
you know they're getting like you know run by new people um we at energy it's it that's not the case
right because you need to run a master node uh the minimum to run a masternode. The minimum to run a masternode is like a thousand energy required
and the maximum you can do at the end of the spectrum is like a hundred thousand.
So you will have to scoop up like a lot of energy from the market
and you have to run like a lot of nodes to make your vote count.
And also you cannot do it during the the you know once the governance is out there
like you have to be you know at certain point of time you have to be before the um the governance
is actually published on the blockchain so this is what has been um you have to basically in short
like you know removing all the mumbo jumbo jargon you have to have the skin in the game for a long time.
Basically, you have to have the skin in the game.
So, you know, in order to participate in the governance with strength,
you need to be there.
You need to have, you need to run the masternodes.
You need to run it.
You need to observe it, that it's running properly during the votes.
And, you know, I just can go to the market and
scoop up like 1 million energy and put it in the masternode and then now boom I have like 1 million
vote no you have to do it like incrementally like 100,000 100,000 for every masternode
and I think that's where like you know the tweet talks about like you know they
that's where where like you know the tweet talks about like you know they
they their governance was actually hijacked in short and this is what I've
been like we've been telling in multiple spaces right you don't let your
governance hijack you got to work really hard and actually let people that have
skin in the game drive the I hope that makes sense. Can you hear me Gabby? I am so sorry I was
actually speaking on mute. That's the first time I've done that one. But actually looking
over the information it is a very long thread. So going back and just receiving that today and kind of just looking through it, yeah, there's opportunity there.
But I do like what you said about having skin in the game.
You know, there's lots of us who haven't been around for a long time.
And so we may not, you know, have that information or might not know that information.
So, you know, it's always helpful to learn, you know, to learn something new.
So I do appreciate you you know
mentioning some of the opportunities that they you know I don't know if you
know about this blockchain called Cosmos or Atom yes actually yeah it's
almost like that story being repeated on that chain right because you have like a
very closed loop of, you know,
builders. It's almost like sample. It's like Polkadot version too, if that makes sense.
It does. And we do have a hand up and I don't want to dismiss that person. So I want to see if they have a question from anything that you may have mentioned at all, Mark Otto.
Thank you for having your hand up.
Wanted to see if you had a question on any of the information that Mark presented.
Hope you will.
Are you there?
You might be on mute.
Otto.
Hello, sir. Can you hear me?
Yes, we can hear you.
Hello.
Hello.
My question. So many projects just want to talk about long-time vision and mission.
But what are your short-time goals goals what are you focusing on right now?
LP bonds, the DeFi NFTs that's all we're focused on heavily right now in the short term.
Thank you for your question Otto and thank you everybody for raising your hands.
Otto did you have another question? Okay. That's okay if you don't. Thank you for your question. And we
have Mr. Maha. Hi. How are you? You can go ahead with your question. Hello, can you hear me?
Yes, we can.
My question is, how does QAnna make it, NFTs ensures interoperability with other Web3 protocols?
Do NCS AI drive-in applications across different blockchains networks we have a multi-chain bridge
and we are launched on multiple chains right now the bridge is connecting energy and ethereum and
energy and polygon but we'll see if we can expand it to other chains but right now interoperability
is not really core focus it's basically like what I call is a mumbo jumbo sophisticated term.
I haven't developed much into it.
I think most of the chains when it comes to NFTs would like to retain the values on their chain.
Okay, thank you.
Yeah, go ahead, Gummy.
Yeah, I was just going to say, I know Tommy's not here and I know when he listens to this,
but hey, just as a reminder, as space courtesy, if you have questions like this, they're very
thought-driven, and no disrespect to anybody asking the questions. They're good questions,
but when they're kind of out of context, it's kind of very distasteful and dishonoring to the
space and people that spend time in here. So if you have questions like that that you're just kind
of reading off like that, could you just put it in the comments and then we can answer those
questions? Certainly we'd love to get to those questions and they do have value and they need
to be answered, but probably not an open forum like this because it really disengages people.
So I just wanted to say that I know Tommy, when he listens to this, he's going to be rolling over,
but I really, really wanted to emphasize, you know, I've been in spaces for a very, very long
time and to pop in a space and just ask kind of a random question like that, even if it's a good one, really is kind of distasteful.
So thanks for letting me mention that, Gabby.
Mark, are you there?
Yep, I'm here, Gabby.
Okay, I was going to say, if anyone does have a question, just to kind of reiterate what Gummy said, you can take the first post at the top, at, and use my name.
And we will get that, you know, question answered for you towards the end, just to be respectful of the space.
there's anyone that has questions, you know, more geared towards the topic that we're discussing,
whereas LP bonds or what happened at Polkadot, if you're aware of anything, I would like to
interject that. GM, GM. Good morning. Is that John Paul? Do you have a question in reference
to what we're talking about today? I'm not sure. I can't hear you. I'm not sure, Mark, if you can hear that person.
Nope. I'm not able to hear him. Anyway, let's, let's, yep. Gabby, anything? Yep.
So I just want to kind of go back to something that you were talking about earlier in reference to, you know, some of the opportunities there with the innovators and the talent and recognizing talent and making sure that people have the resources and tools to be able to innovate.
to be able to innovate and how important that is because again you know not having a project i don't
have a project of my own i look at myself as an investor and a community member i like to invest
in projects maybe one day i'll have my own but i can say the space sometimes can be very relentless
um when there are builders here who are trying to build and so but making sure that people have
resources that are necessary in order for them to be successful, I think is very important.
But filtering through people, and I can see my filtering hasn't probably been the best when you're trying to filter through people and making sure that, you know, you're vetting people who come up here and are asking questions that are relevant to the space and making sure that everyone's question is answered, regardless
if it might not be relevant to the current topic that we have right here, but it's still
important to get to those questions.
So again, anyone who has a question in reference to how the blockchain works or how GMI is
picking their ambassadors, we do implore you to utilize the first tweet and we'll answer your question as soon as possible.
And then what you said about onboarding and making sure that the knowledge curve, you know, and having that curve, you know, kind of reduce that curve by being more inclusive to help people who are new and
onboarding. I think that's very important as well. Because again, you know, not everyone comes in,
you know, with the knowledge that some people have been here with for a very long time. So it's like
it's taking a sip. And I always say this, I feel like in every space I go to, it's like taking a
sip out of a fire hose, you miss one day, you miss. It seems like you miss a month, a week, a year, you know, what have you, if you're not here and showing up.
So I really appreciate you telling us how to show up as well and how to be more beneficial to the space when people want to have a job in Web3.
What is it that you have to do in order to get that?
So I really do appreciate that.
And I appreciate Gummy and Bate Billiards coming up order to get that. So I really do appreciate that and I appreciate Gummy and
Bat-Aid Billiards coming up here to story tell. That's another thing that I feel like is underscored
here is that the ability to tell your story that resonates with people so that they can learn more
about what you do and how you do it. So coming back to these spaces in a replay is very important.
You explain LP bonds, but there's somebody who's gonna come in here
a little bit later.
There's somebody who has been here forever
and never heard of LP bonds and they're, you know,
and people need a reference.
So the reference is to listen back to the space,
to attend the, well, to go into the discord,
be a part of the discord and follow people around.
There's nothing that a simple tweet.
And if you do have a question where to ask that question so
I really do appreciate the knowledge here but I do want to say one last thing
and you said no one wants to know about knowledge zero knowledge proofs I think
it's important for us to know a bit of detail about what we're investing it I
say that only because a lot of us don't understand
how money and how things work. We just, we're easily, people just want to be an investor,
but don't want the knowledge. I think we should yearn for the knowledge to understand what we're
doing in this space to make informed decisions and just not make a decision because we just
want to be here and make money. So, but to each their own when it
comes to stuff like that. But what I will say is it is important to know and to understand
terminology because there will be new people that eventually will come into the space that will need
help. If we don't have mass adoption, how do we get it? No, we don't burden people with the extreme
details. We do give basics, but there has to be some kind of matriculation through the process of learning that we understand that people understand
that they know what they're investing into. So I do thank you for these spaces that we have on a
weekly basis and explaining because again, I've heard of the LP bonds. You've explained them last
week. I took notes, but there's always something new that you hear when it actually
comes to, okay, the LP bonds. So this is not just the only space or previous spaces to listen to as
well. So I want to, you know, ask people to go back and listen to those spaces. Yeah, they might
be a little, you know, you hear things here and there, but it's important to understand what the
project is doing, what you're doing as GMI, and how we can be a part
of making it, helping it become successful. So I just want to say thank you for that.
Hand it back to you. Yeah, no, most welcome. And then regarding towards for the two today's
spaces rewards, I want to make sure that, you know are you know very they just don't come and sit in the
spaces right so I have you have two hours until you can claim the rewards you have to hop on to
our discord and get me you know open your ticket open our ticket and get the rewards. And I put a little check mark on their comments.
So, yep.
Remember, guys, yeah, we do this every week.
And then we take a break after every three weeks.
We talk more about the ecosystem and all of that.
And the progress that we are making so far.
So, yeah, if you have any comments or questions you
know always the dms are open if you have any project collaborations or anything the dms are
always open um you can reach out to me you can tag me on discord i'm most of the time i'm available
if i'm not able to attend to your answers very quickly i would do in in you know in good time
in good time.
But please be patient.
Patience is the game.
Sometimes we have to move very quickly on certain things
and that requires a lot of focus and dedication.
And keep learning.
Keep growing.
Imagine, I still have a lot of people
that I actually joined our first Zeely campaign
and they have actually not left. Imagine what you could have been or what you could be if you still stayed, right?
See your next growth. So try to fill in the gaps. Try to ask for feedbacks like, hey,
where do I think I need to grow? What do I need to do? And then that's how I have actually grown.
I need to do. And then that's how I have actually grown. People always listen to people that give
me feedback. Don't try to be a value extractor. Don't be a grifter. Double down really hard
when the bear market hits, right? And support the projects. That's actually when you will get
noticed. And I actually do that very aggressively
whenever we have those silent moment in the market.
I'm like, yep, now it's time to wear my Twitter head
and start supporting my favorite projects.
So yeah, that's pretty much it from the spaces.
I think Tommy will join us in the next spaces.
And you'll see a lot of developers coming out
in the next week, we're gonna make a lot of developers coming out in the next week. We're going to make a lot of announcements.
We have some very interesting content that we're going to push across a lot of social media.
You're going to see that on YouTube, on TikTok, on LinkedIn,
working very aggressively towards that.
You know, Mark, I really like that because I think the LinkedIn crowd,
and I think some people are in here from LinkedIn.
I mean, because that's where I started. I was like, that was my kind of my Twitter kind of thing.
My social was LinkedIn. And I think that's the beautiful thing that merging the worlds together.
That's going to help with mass adoption because, you know, LinkedIn is your more professional website where, you know, people look for jobs. You jobs. They're in their best dressed and
their resumes are out there on LinkedIn. And so I think that's a wonderful opportunity to reach
people in that space because it is highly utilized and a lot of people do pay for their
memberships on LinkedIn as well. I will say I don't do that as of now, but I used to.
But yeah, when you find out there's other platforms or there are other platforms, there is a difference between LinkedIn and Twitter. And I think most people probably understand that. And it's probably why a lot of people are under different PFPs.
we conduct ourselves in a proper manner in both places because regardless if you think people don't know you,
people can find out who you are. This is the Internet.
You know, things can be hidden, but it's not as hidden as what most people think.
So we have to ensure that we conduct ourselves properly where we work,
but also there's a way to handle ourselves properly here, especially if we want to get adoption.
there's a way to be uh handle ourselves properly here especially if we want to get adoption
um we have to clean up the space and so i'm really excited about
the opportunities and the growth that can come from here to there from there to here
you you won't believe about gabby people people people are trying to hop on the next opportunity where they never even invest in themselves right
this is very crazy example i i send a link to um i think around 30 people in my circle
work personal and all of that and i just like, hey, this is a session on AI.
You're going to learn about prompting, video making, video gen, this and that.
Like even LinkedIn.
Okay, that involves LinkedIn, you know, exposed and everything and all of that.
Did you know, Gabby, how many people actually showed up?
Yes, how many people should show up? Yes, how many people should show up?
Well, I would love for hundreds of people to show up,
but sometimes you only get one or two or maybe five.
Nobody showed up.
Actually, nobody showed up.
And I was expecting it.
Like, you know, I was like, let's do a social experiment, right?
Let's see if people are
more geared towards getting the knowledge for free and then you know people come in post it
post on social media and this and that like you know they look at something new and like hey how
did you do this like you know how can i do this how can i make this graphic like how you guys are
doing this i guys i sent you a link remember like you know to join this
and like you know to do this and this is for your self-improvement and actually that session
if you look at the value that you would have to pay it's almost like a 500 worth of session
right and they were giving it out for free and now they don't so they have stopped doing that
so you missed out a really great opportunity right um
and it was really an amazing like you like you could like just attending that session you could
upskill yourself uh for like a whole two years worth of work so what you could achieve after
two working hard for two years you could achieve that by just attending the session by the way the
session was like 17 hours long it was a lot long so if you started on a friday night they ended on a saturday
on a sunday evening that's how the long the session was and then i reckon after that they
were promoting their courses and all that that's another story but this is what i'm trying to tell
people like you know upskill yourself invest in yourself you know stay there you're gonna see you
start seeing the results.
When you're attending these spaces, take something away from these spaces.
Keep on building.
So just feedback because the ecosystem is as strong as its community,
and I am all ears, you know, but also be respectful, obviously,
when you're doing all of these things.
You know, don't be aggressive.
Be very β and it comes with a lot of sacrifices lot of sacrifices, building and all of that stuff.
Knowledge is everywhere. You got to be very selective to invest in yourself, which knowledge
that you're in. If you're spending a lot of your time scrolling, just scrolling, scrolling, scrolling,
remember there is a person that is beating you every second that you scroll with that knowledge. I think I think Gabby we should wind down the spaces.
What do you think? Yeah but Rashman has come up and I wanted to acknowledge
Rashman before we leave out. Hi Rashman how are you?
Hey hello Gabby.
I'm good.
Thank you for coming.
I'm glad to see you up here.
Yeah.
And I know we're getting ready to close the space, but if you have anything to add,
Rashman, please feel free.
No, no, nothing from my side.
Well, we're happy to have you here and we're glad that you came up to say hi.
So I know we get to see you every so often in this space
and so we're glad to have you
and feel free to come up anytime. I know we're gonna get you every so often in this space. And so we're glad to have you and feel free to come up anytime.
I know we're gonna get ready to wind down the space.
So just wanted to maybe start going around
and giving people last, you know, final thoughts
before we pass it back to Mark.
And so I guess we can start with you, Ruckman,
if you have anything that you'd like to add
as we're closing.
Oh, no, no,, I'm not too prepared.
That's okay.
Well, we're glad you're here and keep coming back and keep coming up here.
We're glad to always have you.
And Sulzaki, did you want to say something before you played music?
Because I was going to pass it to BadΓ© Billiard and then Gummy.
Yeah, absolutely.
Hello.
I'm glad to see many faces here and also i want to thank our riders here i can see many of them here so uh guys i'm really really happy to see
you all here uh zebus all sarah ring i can't even mention all of their names because there are many, many here. I'm happy to see you all participated in this, our weekly hangout spaces.
And thank you to all our new people that attended here.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate it.
Thank you, Gabby.
Thank you, Sozaki, because we know what?
We all don't know each other in here.
And it's really an honor for you to shout out people who are actually part of the project, builders in the background who we never know because they're always working in the background.
So shout out to everyone who comes through and is in the background working. Keep working, keep building. And way to go, Sozaki. I appreciate you. And before we go
to Bad A Billards, I'm going to stop off at Jazz Rock. Hey, what's going on? Hope you're doing well.
Hey, everybody. Happy Sunday. Yeah, no, I just wanted to give everybody a little bit,
a little alpha on the Octolight project. Our artist and developer has been out on the boat
for the last couple weeks, making sure he can provide
for his family. So obviously, the first thing I wanted to say is, you know, Web3 is great,
you know, investing in crypto and trading is great, but everybody please make sure that your
families and your home life is secured and you can pay your bills. Don't invest more than you can risk to lose.
Secondly, about the alpha, we are potentially going to be closing up our mint for a small period of time to do some promoting.
now is the time because um octo and i have been speaking in discord about when we want to actually
freeze the mint for a little while so i think when he gets back on dry land here soon we're
going to have a serious talk on that and um come up with a date that we may potentially be able to
talk about um i'm going to push it for being after the next space so that we can talk about that.
So maybe give everybody a week to still get an off the light if they want one.
Thank you, Jess Strogh for that. If there's anything that you want to post in the nest or pin in the nest,
please feel free so that people can reach out and definitely follow these projects up here.
They're great projects.
And I'll pass it over to Batty Billiards.
Thanks, Gabby. Now, there are so many exciting things going on right now. So many great announcements from energy. Honestly, there's never been a better time to get involved,
it feels like, in the energy ecosystem with everything that's going on.
And like they said, more announcements coming.
It's been really exciting as well.
I've seen lots of little tidbits and announcements from Gummy Invasions, too.
Yeah, what an exciting time.
So, no, thanks for having us on the space.
Thanks for putting on the space.
This is a great chance to connect and find out what's new and what's going on.
So, no, I wish everyone a good week going forward.
And, yeah, I don't know.
Like I said, there really isn't a better time to get involved.
So looking forward to the announcements coming out.
Thank you, Betty Billiards.
And always good to see you here in the space, too.
So thank you for showing up along with everybody else in the audience who shows up on a weekly basis as well.
Gummy, we'll pass it to you.
Yeah, I was just going to basically reiterate what everybody said.
Thanks for letting us be a part of this, part of the future here.
Just really exciting times. Great projects represented, great people represented in here.
Thanks for hosting it, Gabby. I know I say this privately, but I think it's due to say it publicly.
You're a fantastic space host, so hopefully you'll continue doing this. But thank you so much for
so much for keeping us all aligned and keeping the information going it's been very enlightening
keeping us all aligned and keeping the information going. It's been very enlightening.
thank you gummy uh and i have to say a shout out she's not here but uh crypto queen uh because she
was uh she's a great mentor friend sister whatever you want to call her she's awesome um and she's
one of the reasons why i'm here and i just want to say thank you to Mark and to Tommy and you know to you and to Jastrog and to
Bede Billiard, Sulzaki so that I can share this stage with you on a weekly basis. I've learned so
much and I'm still learning like you said that your best investment is the investment in yourself
and that's more than money can buy is investing in yourself and in your knowledge and in your
awareness so that you can help others when that that mass adoption comes, we will be more than needed. It will be able, we'll be much more
knowledgeable to be able to help onboard people. So I really do appreciate the space and still
learning still. I consider myself still new, not as new as maybe somebody who's really new coming
into the space, but feel better, better equipped with tools in the toolbox to be
able to help somebody else come into the space, at least in the beginning, so that they can learn
from others. So in creating that safe place, thank you for this being a safe place where people can
come and learn the ins and outs of GMI, the ins and outs of blockchain, and investors can, you know,
feel good about what they invest in because they've made an
informed decision based off of information from the space. So with that being said, and thank you,
Rushman, for coming up. I appreciate you too. We do see you as well rating and in the Discord. So
we appreciate what you do all the time. So we'll pass it back to Mark for final thoughts and then Silzaki for our music playing
out. Thanks, Mark.
Oh, thank you all for attending and taking time. The building keeps growing.
Yes, Silzaki, I guess that's your cue.
All right. Thank you for giving me this chance thank you all enjoy Oh oh Some nights I say I'm catching my path up
Some nights I call it a door
Some nights I always say my lips could build a castle
Some nights I wish they just fall off

What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights I don't know anymore Oh Silver over everything The red is all wet
