Thank you. you
Could you guys hear the music give me any mo if you could
No Can you guys hear me? Yes? You can hear me?
You can hear me?
Yes, we can now.
We can now.
One day I will figure out spaces, I swear.
Today's probably not that day, but one day it'll happen.
What is up? Bro, Twitter spaces sucks.
Always like that dude i'm so tired of elon acting up you know like we have a whole ass streaming platform he needs to get his shit together um because it's not okay
it's been four years requesting the same shit you know like to be fair three years uh like since elan took over like we need
twitter group chats like uh and dms to have like sections we need spaces to run good the same
requests that we have since 2022 and nothing happened yet i can't even talk about dms honestly
dms are something that are the bane of my existence.
I don't think I'll ever get through my DMs.
And I just had to accept that about myself, to be honest.
It's just one of those things.
But yeah, we have Gmabs here.
I want you guys to be sure to share the space.
Share it with your friends, your enemies, strangers in the street.
Send it to your ex.
Because fuck your ex.
Send it to them.
Make sure that they come and hang out and learn about your mouse.
Because, like, why not?
And we'll get started in just a second.
I can do the beep-o-bop noise.
Because apparently when I play the, like, the Twitter music, that doesn't...
Nobody can hear that shit either.
So what should I do?
That's it.
That's all I got.
That's as good as it gets, guys.
You're on your game.
Can you hear me?
Yeah, I can hear you.
What is up?
What's up?
What's up?
We love being here with you guys finally you know finally
finally finally yeah i mean yeah i'm glad you can make it because everybody is in free in dubai
right now um so we could just sit here together no hell no i'm not in dubai oh my god oh my god
so sad for that so sad for that um i mean it's it's great though we're well
represented in dubai it's kind of it's kind of nice to to see everybody doing stuff so i could
just die of fomo here it's fine i'll be okay i'll live maybe i don't know we'll see
one sacrifice for for the team right yeah for real we were trying to make it to be honest
do not say the lie on you we're trying to make it but sting didn't didn't go well last minute
so we had to change plans um story of life but honestly like uh with the way the market's been
i'm like i'm gonna hold on to my bags for a second. You know what? I'm going to sit this one out.
So luckily it's turned around.
But you know what?
If I would have spent the tickets, I would have been down that much more.
So you know what?
I have time for that.
Yeah. Got to save up for the next one.
But before we get started, I do want to say GM to Blue Tiger and The Rocks.
Hey, guys, how you doing?
I'm good, Dala.
I'm good, Dala.
How are you?
I am enjoying my day filled with FOMO and rage because I'm not in Dubai.
Honestly, what really bothers me is not having, again, a pillowcase full of the little green pengus.
I need a bunch of absters.
So I'll be okay i know
everything everything that they're showing there it's so amazing um but maybe we'll make it to new
york this year so we'll get some of that good treatment as well new york i'll be at because um
i might really literally die of FOMO. Blue, are you coming to New York?
I don't know.
It feels like five times.
I think it's two or three.
I like New York, but it's always so chaotic.
I'm not sure.
I don't even know when it is.
Is it June?
Yeah, sometime in June.
I think the end of June.
I don't know.
We'll have to check that out yeah maybe
if you're going then the odds
obviously go up but
we're gonna
I'm sure we're gonna have some abstract stuff
it's gonna be great you should come
yeah okay I'll consider for sure
I haven't got I didn't get any FOMO
the past years for Dubai because it was always
a catastrophe like the flooding and I don't got, I didn't get any FOMO the past years for Dubai because it was always a
catastrophe, like the flooding and I don't know what else was the previous year, but I did get
some FOMO this time with the Igloo after seeing the Budgie event. That was, that was crazy. That
was wild. I wanted all the free branded swag, but I guess, I guess another day, or maybe I'll just
cry in like the team Slack and they'll send me stuff.
That works sometimes. Yeah.
Well, I'm glad that we had a chance to get you on the space because we haven't had a chance to talk.
And honestly, I don't know enough about the token. And here's my thing.
I use these spaces for my own personal alpha because I have the attention span of like a potato.
So this I'm holding for selfish reasons because I want to know all about it.
So I might as well get a bunch of people in the room together with me to hear.
For good reasons, good reasons, you know, serving the purpose.
Right. So what's up? Give me the TLDR.
Yalla, let's get it. I know your attention spam is low, so I'll try to make it fast.
So basically, first of all, about myself and my team,
we've been in crypto for like five, six years.
Every one of us building, helping, doing everything in the shadow for a lot of projects.
You know, we're hesitating to launch doing anything, anything that's like that
comes revolves around token other than building because like, you know, like
token isn't always the best thing to do, you know?
So basically, so basically all these five years, we've got a lot, a lot,
literally a lot of experience through helping through the companies that we run through the content that we have i don't know if you've seen it on the on the timeline
and everything uh to prepare us to prepare us for this moment uh since abstract started like
literally day one where we were in the discord i was under discord just getting to know what's
what's what's about what's about abstract what
what is this tag what is luca doing you know and i started liking it step by step since like day
one people started like like getting some some slangs for themselves to to identify as the abstract
people you know throughout the ecosystem even though the reach of abstract was so small back then.
And people were debating which slags to start as the original one, the GM one, you know,
the most important one.
It was abs morning,
it changed to absolute morning and stuff.
Then the consensus, the reward changed
and got to GIMABs, which we all like, which is our favorite.
What is GIMABs? What is this coin? It's not just a coin. It's a movement, literally a movement,
a movement carried by the community. As you see in our team, we have a lot of Gigas, we have a lot of community members,
that we were able to get to know them, that we were able to meet inside of Discord and outside of it,
rallying through the same mission and the same vision, which is like, we liked Abstract,
and we want to do something there, and we want to get a big voice.
You know? So from there there that's first part since
abstract launched uh the agw thing the blockchain and everything a lot of coins started started
popping these coins well some of them were good some of them were decent some of them were
were astronomically good like note and all that stuff i've been into all of them were astronomically good, like Norton and all that stuff. I've been into all of them, literally, like trading on all of them on my AGW, just for
the sake of supporting the ecosystem.
And because we like it there, literally.
We've seen like all the coins are, I really love all the coin founders.
I really love everyone's job, like literally everyone's job.
ear bashing anyone or something you know it's just showing showing our vision i've seen a lot
of them revolving around penguin you know penguin characters revolving around like the like the
pubg community which is which is not strong at the start of the day but some for the ecosystem to flourish for for for people to start
getting like excited and other people like like us to get from the shadow from the shadows and start
building you know you would need to like start showing them that okay this is the place for for
for these things to be done that's the place to foster these communities that's the place where
where everyone likes each other and
is helping, you know, and it's not like
bashing or playing 50s.
It's all that stuff.
You know what's funny is the
original mascot
for Abstract wasn't even
Abster, the Pengu. It was
it was Abstract, if anybody
is old enough to remember that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Even AbsChat wanted to differentiate itself because a lot of people think, oh, it's the pudgy chain.
But it is encompassing a whole lot more.
I mean, they come from the same kind of parent company.
But it's so much further reaching than the Penguin.
So I do appreciate when somebody launches a token. This isn't hate on the penguin tokens because i love them all but it's nice to get
some different original characters and some like real amiable um critters in the ecosystem
i like your your mascot is he like like he looks like a son kind of
he looks like a tell me about him like he's got these spiky hair yeah he looks like the son kind of. He looks like a... Tell me about him. Like he's got these spiky hair.
He looks like the son and the reporter, you know, the GMAP morning guy.
That's the guy that you hear when you're going, when you're going to work and tuning in the
radio, you know, that's the guy you watch when you're eating just dinner and you want
to just jam on something, you know, and he's, he's the guy that,
that gets the good news.
I like the GMAPs.
That was the inspiration.
That was the inspiration.
I love that.
like you mentioned earlier,
launching a token,
can be hazardous to your reputation,
especially if you've been building in this space for a while.
with abstract, we kind of have these mechanisms in place. But like, you know, with Abstract,
we kind of have these mechanisms in place to vet teams,
be able to connect teams so that they can build with the most support.
Have you been working with the team?
I think I saw a post where you had spoken to Mason,
who is who is the goat 100 yes okay so basically so basically first first about what you said uh
who is the GOAT.
100%. Okay.
we really launching a coin isn't not just okay it could be easy you know it could be some sometimes
easy if you're doing some things shady some things whatever it is just putting your face out there
putting your reputation out there putting your reputation out there
from your own self that you've been building for for a while a while through with a coin
and the easiest thing because like you you you will get the best and the worst of the both worlds
you know when the coin plummets or anything or you don't show off or you don't do anything you you will be bashed if it's not the opposite as well then think whichever it is you
know from my part because like literally this is a movement it's not like it's just a coin i
that's all sounds silly but we don't care much about the coin more than we care about the movement.
What's the movement? The movement is getting people to say GMabs and getting the web to people
getting people to other ecosystems.
Oh, I think you're rugging a little bit. Or is that me?
No, it's him.
Okay. You know I panic because my shit always cuts out so I'm
kind of glad it was you no worries and just start beatboxing again Dylan
okay guys I'll try not to rock for can't launch a token and rug in spaces.
That's like a bad start.
We can't do that.
We'll be the end of here.
So if you do rug a little bit, I'll just start beatboxing and nobody will notice.
So we'll just cover it up.
They'll be fine.
I'm sorry.
What were you saying?
Yeah, yeah.
No worries.
No worries.
So the mission is to get people from other ecosystems,
onboard them into abstract, into this new blockchain,
which is like something for everyone,
which everyone in there is helping, is friendly.
You know, I've been fed, I'm a Solana guy, you know,
and I'm a cross chain guy, literally.
I chat everywhere, my companies work everywhere
same as my all of my guys as well and everything like crypto is meant to be crypto is meant to be
decentralized however as a chain grows and matures it gets more centralized between its people
you know like like on solana you see like a bunch of people running a big, big amount of the show, you know, on whatever chain you want to look.
You see, it's not this pure anymore.
Once we discovered Abstra, it's literally the opposite.
It's literally like everyone, like the bigger you get, the humbler you are, you know, whichever you are.
Like, look, we are on this pace together.
We've got to the team.
We've got to everyone.
We've did a lot that on other chains would have been like a premium.
Or it would have been like we needed like a lot, a lot of stuff to be, to be able to
reach that. That's the first, that's the first point. The second one is to be able to reach there.
That's the first point.
The second one is getting to the team.
Literally since day one, we were in Discord, we were in Abstract, we were in everything.
We've met quite a lot.
You know, I have, as I said, three gigas on the team.
Mirayab, Gheizal and Hunt.
These guys are Gs.
Literally, they've proved themselves.
They've done the work, they've done everything.
Since they want supporting, helping, growing on Discord, on Abstract, on everything.
But we've got the earliest draws for artists.
We've got the earliest gigas.
We've got kind of the best streamers in there.
Just because they like the ecosystem
and they were able to get the support
that we are now full porting it in game apps.
Yeah, I mean, I got to tell you,
social vetting is probably,
it's been more integral to abstract than I've seen anywhere else. And I'll hand it off to Blue in a second to make his point. But when I was going to even like schedule this space, I was like, Merhab's associated with it. I know he's good people. I know this is going to be a quality guest to have on the space. That was it.
is going to be a quality guest to have on the space. That was it. That was what I needed to see
to feel comfortable hosting a space, knowing I wasn't going to be talking about something that
was scammy in the ecosystem, because I know I'm dealing with somebody who is invested personally
in the ecosystem and growth and the community. So I can't overstate how important it is to be
able to be connected as a community so that you can
have the benefit of saying, I know who that is. He's a good worker. She's solid. I know that she
works with the right intentions. And this is something that I can at least have a little
faith in to look into deeper. I want to hand off to Blue because his hand's getting tired. High five.
his hands getting tired. High five.
Yeah, no, very
interesting info. I just wanted
learn a bit more about how this transition
I mean, you said you're trying to
get more communities from
cross-chain. I think everyone
voluntarily or forced
were trading Solana
meme coins in Q4 a few months ago and but abstract
is still quite new on the meme coin side at least I was trading a lot in Solana but I'm not yet
traded in abstract um and as I was saying I've seen a lot of so many penguins in all different
colors and rainbows uh on the timeline launching launching meme coins. And this character you have is very unique.
What are you guys doing to invite other communities and other chains into trading and abstract, especially DMAPS?
Perfect, man. That's a very good question.
To be honest, we're planning to do it in two steps okay or two main two main agendas
the first one is like as you said you've what you saw on abstract still didn't get you excited or
full much much to get into more coins you know to to start putting your own money because you've
seen like like some traditional ones and all that stuff because the scene is still young you know what we are doing what we are doing at first is solidifying
the movement getting people literally to rally behind them and behind us getting people like
like we want to insert trust like please please everyone trust we are not here to rock we are not
here to do anything literally we are just here to rock. We are not here to do anything, literally.
We are just here to rally a movement that this movement, you can all, you can all, like, guys, because you were, since day one and there.
It's from the community, by the community.
Just rally behind it.
Get everyone to start knowing us in the ecosystem, getting to say GMAPs, getting them comfortable in that.
us in the ecosystem getting to say g maps getting them comfortable in that for us for us to be able
to to jump to the next step which is going and doing the activations on other other other
communities other ecosystems other other all that stuff we have a very big reach in there
you know as we can't onboard these guys like you know solana people if i if i'll chill them a point
at 90k what would they do?
Yeah, no, I completely agree.
And also very important to keep it simple
and very easy steps to follow for people to join and the how-to.
And also this, I mean, you're doing this activation,
this space with abstract angels that has a very committed audience
and lots of engagement, so it helps spread the word as well.
I mean, you doing this every now and then
and showing up every day on your Telegram goes a long way.
You know, in general, MemeCoins, not only Solana,
like everyone's so used to rugs.
So having an active founder, it's amazing.
I love that your whole plan is just to invade every other chain
and everywhere else in Web3.
That is so base.
It's like, what's our mission?
Be everywhere.
Put abstract everywhere.
I'm so with that.
Literally, because we love this ecosystem.
Not saying it out of anything.
You see it from the team.
It's a funnel of community people that were in since
like day one and we liked it and as i told you we've seen a lot of cracks in other ecosystems
like as blue tiger as as well said like you know and the culture is like just launch a coin pump it
like the early people or whatever is and make a lot of money and that's and like go and that's it
no that's not that's not the way that's not the way
you know like prove yourself work at it as as a roadmap literally whatever it is like we can think
of it as an article or whatever you know and what's what's better than than repping like like
the the the name of the coin revolved around the chain. Like we are the, besides Appster,
we're the only people that rep kind of the ABS,
you know, the ABS name on it.
And to add to this point,
to add to this point,
like what we are trying to do as well,
hand in hand with the ecosystem
and with the ecosystem for participants,
is grow this, grow this abstract trenches grow this these trenches i want us to be to be a real player
a key player in growing this scene because like for example now we still don't have a trading bot
for abstract we still don't have snipers we still don't have like like like easy
tools for people to start doing their their things and for traders to start like like like getting
more into it you know this is very important part as well when when we hopped on with mason we've
talked about that like i know now our part is like a growing growing this and the knowledge and the involvement and the awareness of the trenches inside of abstract.
To from there, be able to get them the infrastructure, to be able to make more coins, invest more in the coins, get other people inside.
Now they're starting to, other ecosystems,
starting to witness us, starting to see us, you know?
Yeah, I mean, I feel like,
I feel like you're absolutely right in saying
that we don't really have that trenches presence
and having something, having a token
that's actually focused on building that
and building that kind of community,
but with that abstract twist to it. Because, you know,
like the Solana trenches and the other meme token trenches have a bad connotation. But ultimately,
what they are, are just a really dedicated community of people who are in there trying
to get information from each other, give information so they're working together
to pump something so that everybody wins.
And I'd like to see that kind of like fleshed out more.
So I'm glad that it's a focus of yours. But I wanted to pass this to Marhad because his poor arm has fallen asleep.
He can't, all the blood has rushed out of his arm and I'm feeling really bad for him.
So high five, Marhad.
High five, high five.
Looking out for you, my guy.
So first, no worries, no worries. First, I want to say thanks to you and all the flowers that you
gave me because like the trust that you put in my name and like trusting gmabs so uh just to
mention like like you guys mentioned like before like maybe trust is at all-time low now in the
in the space and having zan as the the only maybe founder that is docs to the community and the team, not
only the team, like here as a meme founder in the eco, is maybe a good thing that you
can see and talk to someone that you know, his face and his name and everything.
I pinned up there like his vision and like the post that he did when he launched it and
want to talk a bit about GMabs like he mentioned again like the plan and the movement is to
onboard people to abstract via GMabs like from other ecosystem and consumers as well
because the first thing that people will know like when they come to abstract
and they will search they will not know anything but other than let's say the word abstract apps
so gmaps is the most word used on and discord mentioned more than 50k the timeline is is full
of gmaps so at the easiest movement you know like it's from the culture to the culture. So that's why backing Zan and the team and everyone, because, again, it's from the abstract culture, from the abstract eco to its eco itself, which will help to onboard other people.
Yeah, I mean, I think that it's, I think, again, I love the idea of saying, hey, our mission is just like onboarding everybody from outside of the ecosystem into it. And it is kind of like that. It is, it's like a saying. I say GMAPs 20 times a day in different chats and stuff like that. It's just one of the parts of your day and being part of the ecosystem.
the parts of your day and being part of the ecosystem.
But in being that, I did want to ask about
if you guys were exploring like different partnerships and stuff.
Like we've seen a lot of different things with things like
with Multiplier, with Gotcha and stuff.
Any plans to like maybe kind of get in on those things?
Because to be honest, that's where I've gotten a lot of exposure
from the different tokens in the ecosystem
is seeing them partnered with projects like that.
Yep, Good one. To be honest, we were,
we are in talks with all of them. Literally with all of them.
We have group chats with everyone. We started with multiplier, you know,
but for some dumb reasons, like, like, like, like one father,
which was started, which started as a supporter. And then because I stopped talking with him,
he started fudding GIMABs.
So he went and talked to,
and I'm saying it in the space for Loris to know,
for Loris to hear it, you know?
That Loris got us out of the platform, which is good,
which is all good. We don't mind.
You know, but we're getting there.
Of course, we're getting there on
Multiplier. Gasha,
we were all good
with them. Everything
is in line.
They're not introducing
new cars right now just to
pump their other ones and finish the things that they are doing.
So from our part, directly after these guys introducing new cars will be the first people there. as well there's as well another platform uh which we which we started as well getting uh
getting uh getting with them getting some referrals and everything so so we're quite
good on this font and we're exploring some exotic uh some exotic like like collaborations and some
exotic like uh partnerships that we can do not not just like the usual ones. Oh, exotic partnerships?
I want to know.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I prefer...
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Ayala.
Maybe the next one.
No, leak it now.
Ayala, but just...
Because these are kind of outside the ecosystem and stuff,
so I prefer just to keep them on the low load
for us to figure these things out and then go and share them. You will be like just to keep them like on the low lord for us to to figure
these things out and then and then go and share them you will be the first to know them no i
totally i totally get that and i appreciate that and and you kind of want to have those things that
are in the pipeline so that you can present them to the community like in intervals and give them
something to look forward to um while i love alpha and you are welcome to give me all the alpha
whenever you want,
I also like knowing that there's going to be
something else down the line,
and you don't want to over-promise
and under-deliver.
But I did want to say,
I really appreciate your transparency
and issues being on the platform.
I think a lot of tokens and projects
where I would kind of like tap dance around something
or trying to, you know, avoid talking about it.
But then it's then people are talking about it in different chats and asking about it.
So it's better as the forward facing team to just kind of like address it up front and
say, hey, we had this kind of situation from our end.
kind of situation from art and this was the experience and just get it out there because
This was the experience.
And just get it out there.
why why let anybody else tell your narrative and tell the experience and not have that opportunity
to kind of talk about it with the community who's investing um in it yourself so i really do
appreciate you saying that i don't see that as like you know shit talking or anything um web
three is full of a lot of characters and a lot of emotional
investing here so sometimes you just gotta you just gotta you know let it out there talk about
it and deal with it 100 and that's the most important thing about talking about that is
is the communication and getting like the people the the community, the team and everyone on points of the vision and what's happening.
You know, like I could sit in the shadows for like all day working and everything.
With zero results if I'm not communicating that properly to the people.
And of course, sincerely, you know, the very good thing, which I'm literally
The very good thing, which I'm literally fucking fortunate to be in this situation, is that
we're all very clean.
You know, we're all very clean.
As I said earlier, of course we face, getting back to what we said first, like doing a coin
isn't the easiest thing ever because you will be bashed a lot whatever
whatever people will interpret it other in other directions you know you you gotta always be patient
you gotta always keep your emotions keep your emotions like like like in check you know and
not go and start bashing people like what happened is we got a wave of FUD from supporters,
which he is kind of an OG and abstract.
This guy was the first person that I sent him the contract address on chats.
He was talking and all that stuff.
He missed game apps.
Then he started crying like the hell to get on the MAPs.
So I told him, don't.
He started saying, these guys are base, these guys are OGs, everything.
And all that stuff.
And we were like, all the team was so hella busy in the launch.
And we didn't expect all this love at first directly.
So I helped him.
That was the only person that i've sent him supply and
that's what's from my my agw it's all shown you know and told him like please bro go say it i
don't want you to i don't mind you know just say it because i don't want people to to think that
i'm i'm i'm selling you know i'm selling from anywhere and hopefully again we're very fortunate to be this sincere
and this this open like everything like whatever whatever you can ask me whatever you can ask me
or ask any part of the team you will get a firm answer on that whatever it is because like nothing
is being done under the table and not just saying that you know it's up for the task yeah well you've
mentioned that you've you've been you've helped out with different projects and stuff and been building behind
the scenes in web3 for a while so i would imagine that kind of it's it's a different perspective
and different mindset that you get after learning the experience of being a founder and having to
be that guy that everybody is coming at because web33 is full of FUD. You can't avoid it. People FUD me all the time. I don't know who,
and square up, it's on site. But I'm sure it happens out there in the streets. And it's kind
of something you have to accept. But how has that kind of shaped your experience in building? Because
I have to be honest with you, i don't have the guts to be
a founder i never could it's a role i really really highly respect in this space because
it takes some balls yeah yeah indeed it take it takes some ball and it takes some some relentless
confidence in yourself you know it's not like it's not like like like like just people so
sometimes you can start doubting yourself sometimes you not like like like like just people so sometimes you can start
doubting yourself sometimes you can start like like thinking am i doing something wrong am i
doing something right this one only now this one only now okay sorry i'm ordering food uh so so
like like the thing that i've learned from all from everything that i've done just one champagne no yeah yeah no but the thing that i've learned is that you have to come
forth clean with the communities whatever it is like if you're doing if you if you see yourself
doing the right thing you know and you know that you're not hurting anyone you're not you're not
stabbing anyone you're not doing anything like that's the way you know that's the way now now i can sleep on my bed constable now i can do everything that i want whatever
activation we want to whatever things we want like literally with full full confidence and this is
this is the most important thing for us like literally as my website not just myself not just
myself i have my three gigas which are my backbones they are all dust
as well you know it's not like it's not like like like i opened a an account called game abs founder
and started with like zero followers no no no i have my face out there i have my companies
you know which which they are my bread and butter they're all out there like if i'm doing if i do
any mistake on abstracts you know people can people can can go back to my businesses and get
back get back to me you know dude it's so much easier to just be up front it requires so much
less brain power to just be honest up front and transparent and just let it ride i don't know how
some people keep up with their schemes
because I don't have the
brain cells for it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You got to be an honest
and sincere person
and not just wanting to extract.
if you were doing
some shady things,
you wouldn't be this confident
because if someone knew this,
I would be fucked.
If you're like a baby, if you're like a baby, when you do a mistake or you do anything,
you say, yeah, I made a mistake.
You know, you just look at your parents.
That's it.
You know, there's no need to think about it much.
Best people in crypto, like over there, they exaggerate it, you know,
and over like like over like stuff
they're okay maybe less experience maybe i don't know of whatever it is you know yeah and i mean
we have a different experience too here on abs i know i glaze abs all the time but you know even
if i didn't work for abstract i really do love the platform and the ecosystem mentality where everybody wants to see each other succeed. And I've seen a lot of tokens, there doesn't feel that like that PVP situation. So even when you have a situation where there's FUD, there's a lot of people that you can kind of lean on to be like, all right, how should we deal with this? You can get a lot of feedback. You have a lot of community support.
And again, you have a doc team, like I mentioned.
Knowing that Merheb was associated with it, like gave me that vote of confidence.
Now I know, oh shit, if I get rugged, I just have to find Merheb and hunt him down.
I'm ready.
You should.
Enough for a refund.
It's that simple.
To anyone here,
that's the alpha.
Thank you, Maref.
Potential refunds
if GMAPs rise.
I request my refund as well.
Everyone wants some refunds now.
You're playing the reverse 1 card.
That's not valid from that side.
Only the co-host and the speakers can.
God help the first token to rug me on Abstract.
I'm spinning the block, I promise you.
It will happen.
I ain't got nothing better to do.
I already got frogged on Abstract, by the way.
I bet on a meme that is so low that I thought the founder had nothing else to sell.
So you've already been ruggled.
So that's cool.
So you earned your stripes.
That's a badge.
I was ruggled as well.
Like five, ten days ago or something like that.
It was called Abby.
Yeah, I saw that.
I have to be honest.
We have our little angel abster, right, that we call Abby affectionately.
So when I saw it, and I mean, they did pop up in a space. I didn't really,
there was something about it that just didn't settle right with me. And again, that's,
that's where it kind of comes in where you can kind of ask people on the backend. One thing I
love is that the team is so available and not just to me, but to anybody that if you're like,
how do you feel about this? They'll give you honest feedback and be like,
hey, they haven't vetted. We don't know anything about them. They're not going to fund it,
but they're going to say, we don't know enough about it to endorse it yet, which is really awesome. And I just couldn't get that. So I really faded it. And that along with a bunch of other
tokens that were more female focused, because I that sometimes they these tokens want to concentrate on a
sub-community or a group to be able to exploit them for that attention and um i was going to
be damned if people were going to exploit the angels on a token not today not on my watch
they were trying they were trying they were trying it um so i hope that i hope that the damage there
was minimal to people but um but yeah it's nice to hope that the damage there was minimal to people.
But yeah, it's nice to see that kind of like community vetting.
Merhab, I'm not gonna let you have your arm die
on you this time.
No, I wanna apologize to everyone in this space
and everyone on the timeline,
because sometimes I only like spill some alpha
in the GigaChat, that's why Giga chat is important because quick TDR about Abby.
Abby wanted to launch an abstract first month of maybe the chain.
Then they decided to go to AVAX when like there was some hype there.
Then they came back to abstract.
So I told the Giga chat like, bro, these are our grifters.
I should have posted on my timeline.
So I'm sorry if anyone here like Abe, I should have warned everyone.
I did, bro.
Well, not for nothing, like the abstract giga chat is really a great place.
And if you don't have the giga chat role, it is a very small group.
So you should strive for it.
There's a lot of alpha that's dropped there, a lot of people looking out for each other.
And it's basically the group of people who are most like literally just attention invested in the chain.
And like I said, to emphasize it, it's just a bunch of community members who are looking each other out and just active here.
So it's worth it to kind of seek out these roles.
A lot of people think it's just kind of like vanity roles or things for clout.
That's weird and nerdy.
It's just cool to be able to be in a group where it's like, all right,
these people are really based.
They know what's going on in the ecosystem and I can,
I can really trust what they're saying.
And having three on your team is, your team is pretty good at GMabs.
That's the cook right there.
Yeah, 100%, 100%.
I got some intel.
I got some intel from the Giga Chads,
through the Giga's,
but I still didn't get the full experience.
So you got them in there doing Recon?
So you got Giga's doing Recon
so that you can invade the rest of the ecosystem?
That's basic.
I like that.
I see your work.
Yeah, you know, the stage is there.
The stage is there.
I'm just facilitating the stuff.
Excuse me, G-Miles. I was not familiar with your game. You're really out here.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, we're trying. And what I do on the Discord of Abstract is
pray Kroenkin all day long, you know, and just, just linger in the chest, see, see what's happening, what's up and everything. But I still didn't manage to, to know about Abby's rug.
Yeah. Um, Hey, I'm sorry, bro. Merhab, yeah, we're going to hold you accountable for that.
Um, if anybody gets, hit up Merhab if he didn't tell you.
Rug recovery.
He's the village quant now.
Less for the role.
Hey, DMAPS, who's the one creating your content?
Because you guys have a lot of memes and stuff.
Who's doing that?
Perfect question.
So basically, one of my companies is a very successful content house literally
uh it's a web3 content house which we started myself and my portland geisel which is the giga
as well uh we do content for literally every successful a lot of successful projects around
whatever ecosystem you want whatever whatever blockchain you want
just name it we've been working there and we have the top projects there starting from solana
i've had mudang giga and a lot or a lot of a lot of projects there on on barra chain we've
helped and better chain wanted me to launch a coin there you know like to do some activations there
we've had honey jar full of and the sort of like literally the, the foundation's
projects, you know, which is called Henlu and stuff on every chain, on every
chain we've helped so far, we've got like more than 13 resources, just, just
artists and two and two offices around the globe like literally physical offices around the globe
where where we where people like work and stuff all these people we're putting them we're putting
them in the service of gmaps you know like all these artists on a daily they have tasks associated
with the work the normal work and the tests associated with GMABs. Hence where you see us have unlimited content.
Whatever we want, we can do with content.
Yeah, you have some great...
You know, I guess starting this space,
I didn't realize how much you'd already invested
in building GMABs before you even launched it.
It seems like you...
Okay, we've helped out these other teams.
We already know what it's like to pump out content. We already know what it takes to kind of engage
an audience. Great. Let's get a team that has gigas, people who are really plugged into the
community and have their best interests at heart. Great. Let's have a focus that's outward into the
rest of the ecosystem because there has to be something more than just saying, let's pump our
bags here and just stay in one chat and developing that kind of like trenches mentality that we don't have yet. That's, that's a really well
thought out way to, to launch a token and to establish oneself in the ecosystem. So like that,
that's, I really love that you've already been a builder before you even came into Launch Token on my cute little beloved chain.
Yeah, yeah.
And that's what we've been saying since day one.
Like guys, you know our shit.
You know, we've been there, done that, and all that stuff.
It's not like, that's the recipe for success, you know.
But we have proven businesses.
We have proven communities.
We've been in there for like a while.
We've done our part from like helping other projects to like getting ourselves
up and ready in the ecosystem and as well like having the best people in there.
You know, I literally believe like the people that are that are with me on gmiles they are the real deal they are the real deal on abstract you know all of
them so so from there it's not like like we're trying or it's not like just we are we are trying
like our mission is just like i want this coin to to go up for me to do whatever it is with it no uh this this mission is way bigger than us
it's way bigger than everyone it's it's on the size of the ecosystem it's on the size of the
ecosystem like like diala what you're doing every day going out there opening spaces doing stuff
abstract ranges and all that stuff it's not for your personal gain you know it's not for your
own things like because you love that you love you love the abstract and you literally want to
get this out there you know you you will benefit of course you will get the whatever it is you know
but that that wasn't your goal that wasn't your goal since day one you're totally right and i
appreciate you saying that because I do love the
ecosystem. And there's a reason why I host the space out of the Abstract Angels account and not
my personal, because I want to be able to say, hey, I'm representing this community and there's
amazing creators and things like that. So we have a very similar viewpoint on taking the potential of what's already here and and using
that in a focused way because again the giga channel that's that's less than 150 people in
the ecosystem right away for there's thousands tens of thousands of people to have three people
in that small group already on your team and this this isn't me glazing again. I didn't know anything about this token
before we started this space.
This is just me learning here.
But knowing that fact is really, really impressive
to have that much confidence
from such a small but important part of the community.
From the community and by the community. Literally. Literally.
It's not like just a bunch of outsiders
like getting in and doing the stuff
because they've seen an opportunity.
It's the people that love this ecosystem,
that did their job early before abstract launched,
even launched, you know?
Yeah. Like Hunt, hunt hunt my content guy is literally the first one that got
that got the artist role on abstract you know because he was contributing art pieces for abstract
way before it launched way before it has anything and that's hence why he got he got he got the giga
you know guys that for example he was vibing all day every day on the on the server you know like
like every day when when we finished work he used to do used to come in join the vca join join the
chat start mingling everyone was was fearful of saucy. He was the only one that used to mock a bit saucy,
you know, to do some stuff like that, right?
So that's it.
It's not like we started the work after launching Game Apps
or after the ecosystem launched.
We started since like before no one knew about Abstract.
Yeah, because it's taken, mean abstract launched in february right
had its its mainnet launch and we were building for months before that but it's still taking some
time for the space to come around and really see the potential here so um if you're an og and you
were riding with us in the discord and part of the community before the last month or so,
you know how much effort that's taken to just really ride with it and be like, I believe in this.
And even though there's FUD, even though there's people that don't get it yet, I'm still riding with it.
What's up, Merhad?
Yeah, just want to continue on your point of the size of appsec now and like the the
history so like you guys said on discord you can join and see every one of us when joined the
server which is way before the pangu announcement airdrop and way before everyone joined we were there like kind of building the
community within the community and talking about the future of abstract and like the present right
now with with gmabs so just imagine once abstract tge come later on after a few months and a lot of
people like they want to come to the ecosystem and they don't know where to go like they will come let's say to the portal and see some games they will see the trade section
who will be on the trade section they will need to find something related to the culture
so again no shilling nothing just um i'm stating the the potential that we have here, that why I believe in it, because I think maybe the culture token and whatever within the community and whatever is going on on Twitter, on the timeline, on Discord, is what outsiders will come and see.
So that's why I believe in it.
Chill the hell out of it, Murhab.
You're working on it.
Chill that shit. Don't say no shilling show that shit you're doing a great job i mean i want to hear it
but um but yeah i i fully encourage like team members to feel super confident in their thing
so i never see that as shilling.
I just see that as you being confident and being excited about what you're building.
And if anybody else sees a shilling, I don't give a shit.
You're not hosting a space.
So do something else.
We were talking earlier, kind of before we started about about New York.
about New York.
Marhab, you're in Dubai right now?
You're in Dubai right now.
No, we're stuck.
Are you coming to New York?
Is GMAP going to be at New York?
New York, I guess it's...
New York is so, so far from us.
You know, the thing that myself, Marhab,
and guys that we applied to go to Dubai,
and we got rejected.
That's wax.
Yeah. So that's why we're not there. And we're just sad about that.
But so now hopefully I was in a Solana event like three days ago in Istanbul.
I showed the hell out of kebabs. I showed the hell out of Kimmerams.
I showed the hell out of abstract.
In fact, I was wearing green.
Yeah, that stinks.
I thought Mureb was in Dubai, to be honest.
We were hoping to go, yes.
But politics here
doing us any favor.
We could all sit here and suffer
together. This is the support space
now. We'll hold hands
Talk about all the merch
about all the merch we're not getting um you know i'll just kind of cope here
we're not getting.
We'll just kind of cope here.
i need the merch is sick dude i'm mad i'm i'm mad i need those little clip-on green penguins like
i need them um if i don't get them i'm gonna flip out i'm gonna keep saying it until they show up at
my doorstep i got no bro i I sent a message to Marianne.
I told her if you don't bring me some with you, I will literally kill you.
Do that information like you want.
Yeah, good.
Threaten her.
She's got all the drinks, all the little penguins, all the fun shit.
She's got all the drinks, all the little penguins, all the fun shit. She's been hosting.
I think she's hosting right now, actually, the stream, which I was really excited when I heard that she was going to be hosting the Dubai streams because, honestly, she's so phenomenal.
And to see how she's grown in the ecosystem is something that I take so much pride and excitement in just seeing her grow.
So love having her represent the the
community that way and um but yeah threaten her um with lots of harm if she doesn't bring you a
little green penguin you know the funny thing with daila the the person the plug of Marianne, which was trying, you know, she wanted to get her the visa, was the one that I applied for us early before, like Marianne wasn't about to go, you know.
So she told me like, no, you should go.
You should go there, just see the scene, see everything.
You will do well there.
From her part, she wasn't able, I guess, sponsors or I don't know what was
the reason
so then I encouraged her like
yalla let's go let's apply
let's see what's
what's the thing
and from there we don't
our visa got ejected
her response too
well that stinks.
Well, it's okay.
Again, I couldn't make it either.
We're going to sit here and cope.
Sad that you won't be at NFT NYC, but I get that.
It's kind of tough to have such a great global community because it's hard to get everybody in the same room.
So one thing that makes me sad about Web3 is that everybody is so far
and there's people that I want to meet in person and hang out with.
But you guys are on the other side of the world.
So what am I going to do about that?
I guess we're just going to have to do spaces like this, right?
Come, let's look on the space.
Hope Twitter had a video call feature or something you know
yeah i mean we do okay so i've heard about this platform right apparently they have native
streaming so we can do something like that um yeah i don't know how good it is but uh d-y-o-r
so it works better than x's streaming that's for damn sure
thank god this team still didn't didn't chug you know yeah we gotta thank him for that
um oh my gosh we only have a few minutes left but i want to say hi to ac
and then uh yeah ask uh a couple more questions. Hi, AC. Gee, sorry, I didn't mean to come up at like the last possible moment. I have excellent timing,
I see. And I love this for me. You've said so much that I feel people are not really connecting to.
And I really am so glad that this, it doesn't feel like
any kind of a space where we're just hearing about one project. The I'm, you know, I'm all
about connections, right? Um, and every single time I hear about somebody that is doing actual
work, creating something that is not just sustainable, but matters. Like there's a, there's
a, a pain point that they're reaching. It, I can't even tell you, it gets me so much more bullish
on abstract. The people that I've met connected to, I feel changed. Like my whole outlook on
everything. So thank you all for, for coming to this space,
for sharing this, even, even if it's like super, you know, chill, whatever, chill, who cares?
Um, I'm just privileged to be, to be connected to, to everyone on abstract. Um, I did come up
to ask one thing specifically, I would like to petition for care packages for those who
can't attend any of these IRL events. I kind of want this to be a thing. Who can fund this? And
I'd be happy to make this actually happen because I feel like that's another way that we can connect
the people who, for whatever reason, sometimes IRL doesn't work out. Sometimes
it's finances. Sometimes it's political because we all know that the world isn't fair, but getting
somehow these items into the people's hands that actually will use them and put them out,
promote them, make that connection. I feel like this is important.
Cope boxes.
Who is building this?
Who's building our coat boxes?
I am down.
I second that.
Somebody sent me cope shit.
Maybe that's something somebody can kind of like take up the cross for.
I know for myself, I'm going to harass on the back channel so I at least get a little penguin.
But I agree. take up the cross for i know for myself i'm gonna harass on the back channels so i at least get a little penguin but um i agree maybe that's something that you know can work out we have those some kind of raffle off boxes and whatnot um do i need that right now yeah you work out
putting it on their road
why not let's discuss with the team i need it right now after Dubai's event. I don't want to miss this much.
We got to do it ourselves.
For real, for real, for real.
I don't want to hold you too much, but I did want to give you a minute to kind of give your one-minute elevator pitch
and let everybody know where they can find more information about GMAPs.
Perfect, perfect.
So basically, all our info, everything that you are doing is on Twitter.
We're going full force there, doing everything that we can.
We'll be dropping a link soon enough with more links when they come up.
Soon enough, we'll be way available,
more available on Discord
when I finish my travel schedule and stuff.
More available on Discord,
like cheering the community,
demabbing every part of the community
and doing some activations there as well.
We're literally again and again and again.
The focus, the importance, everything isn't the coin, it's the ecosystem.
Our mission isn't just like getting a successful coin, it's getting rallying
people behind a fucking big movement that started since day one.
Like everyone.
Thank you for everyone supporting us on Abstract.
Thank you for literally guys getting
us the stage for us to talk and for us to be able to be able like to share this stuff without you
without you without you we wouldn't be able to do to do anything about that
yeah i'll take it and go back to you yeah without you guys without you guys we wouldn't be
able to do literally anything that's that's what we need that's what we need your support is is
invaluable whatever it is whatever it is uh just talking about us just gimme
Oh no, he's wrong.
oh no he's wrong
He's been trying to get in your space.
Or not like that.
Since they want everyone telling me,
like, you need to go on Abstract Angels space.
They are the dopest.
They are the biggest.
They are everything.
And I'm like, this much?
How and everything.
And props to Nancy as well.
Nancy, thank you. Thank you a lot for everything. Like, I've been in a props to Nancy as well. Nancy, thank you.
Thank you a lot for everything.
Like I've been in a space with Nancy early before and we jammed and we talked
and all that stuff.
She's a very nice person, but thank you guys for, thank you guys for that.
Literally, uh, we're not here to chill, you know, we're here literally to, to
make, to make some, some very, some very big moves moves to get this ecosystem that we loved bigger and bigger.
Yeah, I appreciate you guys coming.
And again, shout out to Nancy for organizing a lot of our guests and getting people on this space.
Marhat, thanks for coming through and also being that contact.
and also being that
I can't overstate
how much the community is just
the kind of community that connects each other
with people who are really building in the space
and that's why this space even exists
and how we can
create time like this is really
and thank you guys
angels keep it up
you're doing very well
same as us
you're the first community
you're the first female community on any chain
we need more of you
we don't just want crypto bros
well you know what
there's other female groups
but they kind of build different
not this vibrant
i do want to say is that our women are intelligent motivated funny talented creators and builders
first and that happen to be women so i always want to put that um before anything is it really is
it's a privilege to me to be able to kind of build a platform for them and to give them something to kind of hold them together in a way that they can contact and network for each other.
And I don't take that lightly at all. So I appreciate you appreciating them because they are phenomenal and I love them all.
But thank you again, GMabs. Thanks. Thank you, Blue Tiger, for co-hosting.
Appreciate you.
We are back on Thursday with Spredik and Sugartown.
So be sure to pop in for that.
Follow GMabs.
Put on noties.
Check them out.
And hit up Merheb if you have any issues.
He is going to be the point of contact.
And refunds importantly most importantly that's what people need to live with like they leave this space they go buy game apps
and if you lose maria will refund you that's that's the alpha and that's the most important
that's until the air of the space so you're welcome that's it thanks for joining thank you for the ldr
it's perfect that was it if you missed the last 55 minutes there you go 10 seconds
i should use it as well i'll use it as my pitch as well thank you for hosting yeah there's no
there's no devs do something anymore it's mer Merheb do something. So thanks for joining us, guys.
We'll catch you again on Thursdays, and we'll see you later.
