Yo yo yo how's it going everyone? Quite for a long time since we've had a bettys.
these two weeks gaps now. Was those how are you? Can you hear me? Randy, are you there? I can hear you. Yo, yo, yo, yo, yeah, I was super excited last week. I read, I read, I adjusted my meetings and I was aw, suddenly got a bit of a bar going on. I did that also though.
like where's the Lincoln? Then it was like it wasn't even fun. So, okay, you know, we've got to build up a bit of suspense now, you know, so it's getting a bit more exciting two weeks, you know, we get a bit more build up. So yeah, and how have you been? Good.
and spinning plates and things are good. Once you get into the wet three states, you realize there's no days off, but it's good. It's fun. I spent 20 years in the oil and gas and I always had to travel countries and working crazy weather conditions. None of this has worked.
So it's all enjoyable but there really is no challenge. There's like no shout out switch. So that's all right. I like it. And that's my energy. Love it. And one day you'll, I don't know whether we'll get to this day but you know you'll have to tell everyone about your two days in one day thing as well because I love that that blows my mind.
as well. And he's trying to get on these having problems with his phone. We've got Philip here from the Web 3 show, so welcome to you Philip. Thanks for joining us again. A few other hellos. We've got Adam from Dyno Dog, Kingdom, who's
joining us as well off the back of the big news that the network mind run up game has just launched the beta version and Adam's going to jump on and just talk to us briefly about a little kind of cross partnership competition that we're going to be running that actually Adam has been
from the partnership side so there's going to be loads of great giveaways. Tell me up over the next few days for people that are playing the game and sharing their content on socials. So that would be cool. I know a lot of you guys have been looking forward to the mind running game. Quick I know it was playing a
bit of the alpha version I think you already downloaded and stuff so hopefully you'll be able to see some nice changes with the beta and obviously with some of that blockchain integration as well. And obviously you can now play with the
the rough neck depending on which one you want to choose. So yeah, Andy, can you hear us now? I don't know, have you sorted your phone out? No, it's been here, let's get it up. Lee, how are you? Let's jump over to you while Ben's unmuting.
Yes. I got this everywhere.
Not too bad. I got involved in the time. I'm here too busy drawing garden clues. Those are all done and ready to go. Nice. So I was going to
be talking a bit about that later so I won't steal this thunder now. Cool, so we're going to do things slightly differently obviously we've got Randy and Zozo here they are going to have more influence here on things and they're going
be chatting to Philip very shortly but I just wanted to get Adam up first just to introduce the the mind runner competition and stuff because obviously that's super exciting and to get him to just say what is happening with that competition just so in case he needs the duck off he doesn't have to stick around with that
whole time and then we'll jump over to fill up and get through the rest of the agenda that we've got planned today. Adam, how are you? I'm good, thank you, mate. Very good. Thank you for having me on very last minutes. Yes, sorry, that was very spontaneous. It was very spontaneous by like 30 seconds.
Yeah, why not? Why not? So obviously behind the scenes, it mostly won't know, but the partners, the network partner projects do collaborate and do talk and we often have a whole separate discord just for, I think, for ideas.
And one of those ideas that came up in the last couple of weeks discussion was some cross partner from motion. And at the perfect time, yeah, of course, with the network mind on the game launching today. So I'm actually in the game right now taking an absolute shit ton of screenshots. And that's basically what the competition's going
to be. So all this week and possibly further, we're then a daily competition in partnership with Martians versus Roughnecks and partnership with J-Punks in partnerships with Sparkles who have an NFT called Defenders on the Metaverse, MetaSpark, sorry, and any one of those communities they can screen ground
We're going to pick it every day. We're going to pick the best screen grab. It can be just incredibly awesome looking. It can be funny. It can be whatever you want. And there's going to be a prize pool. And that prize pool is going to include some network tokens. It's going to include some dyno dog bone. It's going to include
I'm going to include a Martian vs Ruffneck 3D. You guys can confirm this but possibly a weapon and a comic as well. We've also got a J-Punk to give away. We've got 10 defenders of the Metaspark.
And then we've got some network token and at the very end I think we're going to have a network motorbike to give away as well. So lots of cool prizes more than a week's worth. So we're going to have to have some other competitions, but they're all going to be geared around the mind run a game. So starting this week from today onwards, every day we're going to be giving
something out. So I'm posting it to our Twitter now. I'm going to tag MVR and you guys can be post. But anyone in the MVR community take take whatever screen grab you can put it on Twitter. The hashtag we're using is mind, mind, mind and every day we'll pick a winner. So fair
chance to run. Nice. I was just thinking Andy will kick jungle freaks as well. So we'll speak to Ken and make sure that we get a jungle freak in there as well and maybe a bit of a mertur or hoodie or something.
those guys to throw into the prize pool. I'm sure that the prize will keep building. What will do is we'll start with the screen grab competition this week, but next week we'll expand it. We're also going to do a guaranteed prize for anyone that streams gameplay footage, albeit to whatever format you use, but you're going to have to again use the hashtag #
we can find it. But exciting, very exciting. I was going to say I bought one of those motorcycles when they first came out like maybe yeah and they weren't cheap. Yeah. They were like 800 euros dollars I think at a time but it's pretty much the same nowadays isn't it? But no that
they weren't cheap, they were good. And I think you can use it for staking. I think there's going to be some new extra pieces in there, which are multipliers and all that stuff. But yeah, I mean, not all our NFTs aren't great to get as well, but that one's probably the most expensive. So yeah, that's a great giveaway. No, absolutely. I mean, I threw it in there. There's a#
I was like, "How about motor mode?" And they were like, "Yeah, we can do that." That's great. You should have said, "How about a yacht?" I know. I mean, I really wanted a plottable land. Yeah, I make a land. Just trying to make a land. Yeah. Anyway, I'm just getting involved.
get posting stuff on well done mate on Twitter we've already I've one of our communities just posted an incredible shot of our diner dog right at the beginning of the games I'm getting that online now but yeah fun nice I think we've been struck by a team full of Mac use so we're relying heavily
I'm going to be doing all of our streaming and screen grabbing. He missed our team meeting this week, so he doesn't know it yet, I don't think. But will announce it now and then he can't say no. I don't think he had some PC-based gaming. And having downloaded and played this
I've realised my graphics card is so underpowered. I think that's been one of the slight bits of contention with some of the network guys isn't it? Just that usability and being able to access it but I'm sure they'll get
over that and they'll roll it out some more machines so that Max can maybe use it. I know they're very much aware. Anyway, I am putting the tweet out in the next 10 minutes or so, so you guys can read tweet and push it to the community and everyone can have a go.
Perfect. Well, thank you Adam and thanks for jumping on at very late notice and sorry we've digressed away from our original agenda but we'll get firmly back on track. So Andy I'll hand over to you just to have a quick blast maybe a quick update on
where we are and then we can hand over to maybe Philip and Randy and Zozo. So obviously we've got the NVR updates which we've got some, I think moving this to twice, once every two weeks or twice obviously a month sort of works a little bit better.
We are getting very close on something so I'll just talk through the bits that We I've been particularly involved and so we had a really good down meeting last week We had Joe who's this way is up is gonna lead a lot of the kind of down Planning and down structure so he's putting in
Trello and he's putting in, we've got a Dow-based Treasury system called Lomads that's really good actually. We've just started using it and interestingly enough, as we started using it, a VC that I've been talking to for a while reached out to us and said, "Hey, are you using Lomads?" And it was like, it was quite interesting.
So they're obviously doing some pretty good stuff and we're obviously in there with the beta. Once that all integrates in, the idea being is obviously it can give more and more autonomy to the Dow and give them more and more direction without it being kind of, you know, a really unorganized out. So that was moving forward quite nicely. The clubhouse is almost
finished, we've got some videos of what it looks like in the moment. We're not posting those out, but the only reason being is because we want some of the lighting to change and we need it to have a little bit more differential between the Martians and the Roughnecks, but that's looking very cool and really kind of
fun, user-friendly, you know, it's been out to a few of the kind of animation places that we're talking to. And they're all like, yeah, it's brilliant. We've also got just one other thing for me is the DJANG gang. Obviously you guys would hopefully have seen the footage that went
out for Dgem with that. I think there was a couple of slips with that, Martian in and one with that, Roughnecks. So that's going to be live to be used pretty soon. The social is starting to pump out straight away. So that's going to be another game that we've got coming in as well as obviously the Mind Runner which has been
Obviously the minor one is going to be a different kind of structure. DJ Gang is more your kind of 1990 Street Fighter game. If you people haven't seen it, do you have a look? Because it's great. And obviously as we said before, there's going to be 4-8 yacht club, Oz and DJ, which is going to be quite cool.
So is that goes through those bits? I don't know. Lee, are you on a speaker to give us an edge? So we haven't got Lee. We've got Ben for the Gen 2 timeline updates and stuff. Do you want to come and talk about that? Obviously the date is undecided at the moment, but I don't know if you want to be. Yes.
of an online one we are. Yeah, so I've finished all the 2D traits and obviously while I've been feeding these through to the R3D guy and he's been working concurrently so I think he's got about 10 bodies left to do so he's
He's on the home run as well. And then it's all rigging and then merging them all into our NFT collection. But yeah, it's imminent. I think we're obviously going to start marketing very soon. Yeah, I think we're hoping. Are we going
to say what day we're hoping to hit. I think we decided against that. Negative. Negative. I think, guys, I mean, everyone's aware that we've been waiting for the 3Ds and I think Adam's gone now, but I think if Adam
The badminton was here, he would tell you how hard has it been to actually produce. I can tell you. I can tell you. Oh, you all know. Hello. Sorry, good stuff. So thanks for that. But yeah, I was going to say it's been crazy. But we've had to fight our way through it. But you know, as we said before, the whole thing about the
three days the gem ones is we want them to be absolutely spot on. There can't be any kind of average or ones that don't quite work or the hair pops through or any of that stuff. So it's taken a bit longer but we found an absolute legend of a guy who is basically sorting and I think you know when people say you've got to kiss a lot of frogs we've caught a kiss to
lot of frogs to get these to the level they're at. So, you know, we're going to do the 3Ds first, then follow that with the Gen 2. So, again, Leigh, do you want to bring us up to speed with where we are timelines on the 3Ds? I think he's just going to say he's
having a problem with his microphone I think I think he's trying to talk but I can't hear it. I don't know if anyone else is. Maybe jump out and jump back in again Lee that might be the best way for it. Or maybe maybe I'll just because it was a funny one actually Lee is always super cautious and super like well it's gonna take a week's well he
know like this stuff which is great because we're all such kind of optimists aren't we we're like woo we're gonna do it tomorrow, LFG you know all that kind of stuff so it's quite good to have someone who calms us all down a little bit and is a little bit more you know sensible but you know it was it was funny it was like yeah we're almost there we're almost great you know we're gonna have I think another
of the week of, I think it's the you didn't just getting finished at the moment, they're checking all of them and then we just got the merge and then we should be pretty good to go. So I think when we come back on in two weeks, we should have some very imminent news on that and timelines, which is brilliant.
So now after letting Lee have the glory of doing one of the fun ones, I've just sort of taken his glory. But that's just where it goes. So tough. So, Zod you do you want to talk about poker and all that stuff? I think we're going to go there. I think are we going over to Philip now?
Yeah, why do we go to throw so there's gonna be no quiz at the end of this at the end of this right so just No quiz to it. No, that's right. Yeah, that's right. Nest is on this is nest is on our holiday so we've got a bit more time to chat so yeah, we can jump over to Philip. Okay, cool. So I just want to
I'm super excited about this interview because I've been getting ready for this. I've been checking out your Twitter, I've been looking at your YouTube. You seem like you've got a ton of stuff going on in the NFT space. Can you just tell me
I'm curious. Tell me a little bit about yourself. What's going on? Who are you? What are you about? I think what you got going on. Thanks, Randy. Thank you guys for having me again. It's so nice to be here. I'm a 40 year old South African guy who fell into NFTs in 2020.
anyone and has been struggling to get out of that hole ever since. I mean that's been very deeply involved in it. I started off knitting an NFT collection and they had a failed mint and I had bought 20 because I wasn't very accustomed to
how you supposed to maintain a fees and I was incredibly bullish and the failed mint ended up being a problem so I started advising them. I've got a Bachelor of Commerce Marketing degree and to kind of long story short ended up becoming a modern mayor and then community manager and finally they actually like owed me some interest in
company. And from there I was approached by various projects and ended up doing other community management roles. And you know one common theme was everyone wanted content creators. So I thought I could offer the perfect package if I started a YouTube channel, I could be there everything. And that's what I
did but I didn't realize how much time and energy that takes and so I stopped doing all those roles and stopped taking on new roles finished off everything and I've just been focusing on my own little community and on YouTube and building you know content and really just giving value to the space
And one of the services that we offer is alpha services within Discords. And that's where we come to know you guys from. We provide all the security alerts and the latest NFT news and alpha calls and the pre-ment links. All of that is done by us. And we do that in about a dozen Discords. So that's how we get to where we are now.
Cool sounds good. So what do you you you have an alpha channel? What do you guys got? What do you guys got going on there? And what's it? It's you've been in this space I'm newer to the NFT space, but what's your overall like what's the what's the market doing friend of T's what's your overall view? And you know why we seen the Porsche had this mint that didn't go so
well, if you're anyone's on Twitter or any social media, everyone's talking about it on LinkedIn, what's your thoughts about there? Give us your heads up on what's the current status for NFTs? Yeah, look, I mean, not financial advice. If I had a crystal bowl, I would be on a beach, sipping bar, greetsers getting fined by a lot of waitress
I don't know everything about everything. At the moment, obviously we've had the sort of mini bull run in the last couple of weeks. Whenever we see yoga doing big things in the space, it does seem to bring this excitement.
I think the crypto pump in the last week and a half or two has definitely put the
on a little bit. But I mean there was a minute today, Toshis, which I had whettles for, we guess went to 500 grey. It was amazing. It was like the good old days. I was so excited. You know, so I'm not saying that we're back in the full on bull. I do think that the macro is still
not great, the states will declare recession in my opinion the next couple of months. And that's actually good news because once that's done, everything will fall again, I will be buying crypto and NFTs left, right, and center, and then we've got it done with and then we can start coming back. So I'm very cautious at the moment.
in short term training, long term. If you want to pick up an NFT that you really believe in, and bluts up NFT, and you've got the financial freedom to hold it, you don't need the money, then we might not be at the absolute bottom, but we close enough that it's probably a good bar, but I'm just quite cautious at the moment.
So if I was say say like myself, I'm not too experienced in the NFT space What should a new buyer like what are things that what are like big green flags you look for what are red flags as a new project coming out if a new project was coming what are kind of some simple do's and don'ts and sorry
me just be like Randy Kizawa asking you questions but I am super curious because you know I believe in and we all see the misuse of the word utility and whatnot so as a new buyer like what should a guy look for you know like said what's some green lights with the red lights again I think it really depends what you what you're looking for I mean if you're just looking
for camaraderie and a community that you vibe with, then if you're in the discord and you really enjoy spending time there and the month price is negligible, 0.01 or 0.02, what a pleasure, that's your access to a group of people that you like being with and whatever comes
comes. If you're looking for something that you'd be able to say, "Okay, does this have good long-term potential?" That's where the days of not being docs are, over in my opinion, we will not review a project unless the founders are fully, fully docs. We check
So, you know, when it says their name will go look for them on LinkedIn, make sure that it's, you know, not just assume them. So that's really important. Obviously they have to have a something over and above NFT release. So the plan can't be let's mention NFT. The plan has to be look, we want to
a company that's providing this service, whatever that may be. Something that's different, something that's, you know, and the NFT is your access to get into that community. I think, go on all the days where the utility is the NFT, you know, just the fact that we're able to launch the NFT connection.
So yeah, I'd be looking at a lot of communication across all socials, consistent and you know just generally together after being here for so long and I mean with time on the YouTube channel probably about an a standard to be corrected but I would say 250 project
You develop a 6-sense that you could easily tell, quite early on whether this has got legs or whether it's just going to pump or double, whether it's not going to sell out. You tend to get those tingly sensors and it's hard to pinpoint exactly what it is, but it's a mixture of a lot of different things.
What would you say if you were, if a project was like, hey, listen, we're giving the whole things a free mint like is that like kind of a way to an entice the community or does it seem a little off? Because I've seen some projects be like, listen, all this means completely free. Is that like maybe a good strategy for a project to gain
a user base to grow a discord. Have you ever seen a successful NFT project that doesn't use discord? Like, and sorry, I think that I'm asking all these crazy questions, but I'm looking through your site. You seem to be a person that would. Those are good questions, right? Yeah, the questions are great. I'm happy to answer.
And you know, anyone who knows me knows that I'm straight, straight, you know, so what you see is what you get. I've got no ulterior motives in being here. So yeah, I mean, look, I think Martha's question, if someone is doing a freement is where is the funding coming from.
to be a free month, we all know that at the moment secondary sales are not what they should be spending on collections that are not your eaglen abs or clone ex or doodles or whatever. So if the month is free, that's great. I get an NFT but you're saying you
going to deliver x, y and z, where is the funding come from? Is there venture funding backing? Or do you guys have personal funds? That's sort of thing because if there's no source of income, then how are they going to deliver anything? And what is the point of the whole exercise?
100% especially when it's been pretty much down only for 15 months. No one's swimming in excess capital to be just giving it away. So cool. What else? What else? I'm sorry, man.
I was interested about what you said before about the NFT collection. Do you think Philip that the days of straight PFP NFT collections has gone then? Is that what you're thinking and saying?
I'm not saying I'm not saying at PFP or any specific genre of NFT is gone. I think it's actually almost irrelevant what genre it is. We do find that there's always matters. There's different things that pump at different times. So we've seen the PFP with
irrelevant what the NFT is, where there's just access token or PFP or whatever it may be. I think what more matters is the driving force behind it and what their long-term goals are. What are they trying to build here? Is more important than anything else to me.
I got a random question. I liked to follow LinkedIn quite a bit. Everyone is talking about like, "You know, you get all these NFT conventions and everything like this and you see some of these, it's like $2,800 just to go to an NFT convention." Like, "What's your thoughts on that?" Because I know I see people that are like, "Oh, I'm a
I'm a specialist at doing this, but you see these conventions that are targeting these crazy amounts of money. What's your overall views on add value add to go to something like this? I don't know. I just see everyone's like, "Oh, come to this convention." You look at the pricing and you're like, "What?" Sorry, I was going to put it.
I don't even, I live in a lot of American country and I can go on a beautiful trip with my family and enjoy something for a fraction of the price. But you know, it just is down market is, I don't know, I'm just wondering about those conventions in your thoughts. Look, I mean, I think it depends.
I think it's worth every every cent because if you you know if you get to meet him and you have the right Contact with him it could be life-changing on both sides you could do stuff together But for the most part no, I don't think that's the way to go Beggars can't be choosers the NFT space is small even even at the height of the book
market. I can't believe it was over a year ago, but at the heart of that last bull market, even then there were like a million wallets on Open Sea right. And you'd say to yourself, okay, the guys, you know what they're doing, have two or three wallets. So what? We've got, you know, at the heart of it, we had 300,000 active traders.
Whereas at the heart of the bear market, we had 5,000 active traders. So if you're going to go and have a conference and charge $3,000 entry, you're going to have no one there. And we actually saw that with one of the NFT conventions where there was no one there. In the end of the day, like the entrance should be free unless you're incredibly noticeable.
Get people in the door get them to love it give them a good experience then they retreated and then you get your name out there You know, it's exactly the same thing with my YouTube stuff and my discord all of that is free Well, you know, we don't charge people to come in the discord they can get it You know access to us for free because in the end of the day we want to give
people who are new to the space and good experience, good advice and just be a sober voice in the crazy space. So I think it's a very short sight to try and charge black and X's fee for anything at this point of time. What's your views on about like sharing IP? I know I've seen some NFT drops where people are like, "Listen,
like you can use our IP. Do you think that's a good marketing strategy for a company to say listen? If you want to come in cool, get the NFT, but you have complete free access to use our IP, just kind of let us know about it. I think kind of like UE5, I don't know if they charge, but if they're like listen, if you get
successful. We want a portion of your profits. Do you think that's a good marketing strategy for an NFT project? Because if you have a really great IP and you get a bunch of super talented people and you get a good community, you never know what kind of things might get created within that ecosystem using the IP. And is it a benefit to the overall project or is it a threat to a project
If somebody takes it, it kind of runs with that. Look, I don't think that there's a one size fits all answer to that. It depends what you're trying to build. I mean, we've seen, you know, board APR Club with giving you as a holder full commercial rights on that NFT that you hold has worked incredibly well for them.
seen shoot off businesses from restaurants to drinks to clothing brands, all of which promote the brand. On the flip side of it, there is a CCO movement which does very well. However, we saw the downside of that with moonbirds. You know, when they turned it
they dropped 50% that was a bit of a different situation because over there on their website where you mentioned they clearly stated that you had rights over your NFT. So they sort of rigged the holders by doing that. So I do think it just it just a
depends on the type of project that you're doing. But overall, I would want to try get it into as many hands as possible because you, you know, as you said, if you've got a community of 100 talented guys who run with it, why not 100 Martin incredibly well and uplift both that community member and the project as a whole.
Cool, awesome. Any any inside tips for the for the community we got here anything that we should maybe kind of keep our ears open for? Just look I think you did mention the Porsche. You did mention the Porsche thing just to just to grab that
back there. That was a big fail. I regularly attend the spaces with Ben Jammin. He is probably the most insightful yuga holder that I know. He really knows a lot
the other stuff and we were talking about the poor straw two days ago and we said this is going to fail. They were completely out of touch with Web 3 and what Web 3 wanted. They've got a Twitter account where they've got the real poor Twitter account and like two million followers and they decided to make a separate
was no free claim for push drivers. So I could have spent $100,000 on a car and I still had to pay 1 ETH to mint it. So we knew before they launched that they would not mint that. So from I think it was $7,700 in whatever whatever NFTs so far they've minted $1,000.
and handled this launch very well at all. So it was easy just to say. Is it a chance that maybe they got a super web 3x word that didn't really understand the web 2 part and maybe they kind of missed the boat there or did they because it seems like somebody might have just said listen like let's not.
that. And this is just for an outsider's point of view. Like I think if they had the whole powerful punch, you know, the two million followers, like, you need to seamlessly go there. Did they, who kind of piloted this? Who's idea? Like if they just branched off and like, let's focus on there, you for sure. Anyone from an outsider's point knows they probably gonna miss the mark. It's just the website.#
is not that big yet where they're going to go. I don't know, I'm just wondering who's idea like really bad getting the very existing community web too interested in the same FT. There was so many opportunities for big car brand. I mean, just just a fortune. You could say, listen, if you own the port
We will air drop it for you for free and one day when we get to the Metaverse you will have your identical car in the Metaverse, right? So that NFT will allow you to have your Porsche and it will be not only one with your registration plate in the Metaverse. You know they could they could tie to the blockchain and
and have it as proof of ownership for every Porsche buyer from now on that when they buy the Porsche they get this NFT free. It sort of came across cash grabby which is weird because they have hundreds of millions of dollars and there obviously wasn't a cash grab but it's almost like they were thinking that they were too big for
the space and it's like if you want to be a part of Porsche or Pay, not really understanding the Web 3 ethos but yeah I think they got bad Web 3 advice instead of bad Web 2 advice and I think the Web 2 the CEO has got a lot on his plate. He's got a few marketing guys who are saying to him we need to go into Web 3, we need to go into Web 3 and he gave them a time
budget and said run with it. I mean their website was an absolute joke and from a brand like Porsche the problem is you only get one chance to make a first impression and I just don't understand sort of half-heartedly going about it when you have so much money do it properly and get the right advisors on board so it's really
really interesting to see how these guys are handling. Well, 100% you use strikeout ones. You have one good first impression and it's at least leaving an embarrassing stain on there. So anyways, I guess I've asked about a million questions here. Does anyone in the community have a question right now for Philip?
Yeah, I think that's another question you can just put your hands and we'll call you up to speak. I don't know. Yeah, I mean, there's some brands that have really hit it off like Nike and like a few brands have really like rolled into Web 3 and just kick ass and then you see a few of them like this point.
It's a real shame because they do have the network, they have the money, they have the brand, they have the everything, right? And it goes to show, like you don't even have your new project, how many projects out there fail, miserably, but we don't hear about it because they're not Porsche, right? And it's really everyone's like, okay, is it a cash grab? Is it a
value ads, right? So it's really interesting space and it's ever changing too. So it's cool. I'm gone. I got to ask you. I think the message to web three natives like us, they go in this room, is don't get sort of blindsided by a big nine
coming into the space. Don't think that that automatically means that they're going to be successful. I would say, you know, from my experience, almost 90% of the big Web 2 companies that have tried it into the space have failed. And Audi came into space with unseen universe six months ago.
There are 4+ is 0.01, not 4+ means everything but 4 brand like Audi. That's really not where it should be. We had Dolce and Gabbana come in and go. There's been a lot of big brands that just haven't done well. I think Mike is really the exception rather than the rule.
interesting because in the end of the day they've also separated it from the main mark so so that the main mark account doesn't really tweet about artifact whatsoever and interestingly enough, mark is launching their own sort of polygon web 3
experience with NARC SWISH, which they are making a noise about on their main account, whereas RTFKT and an artifact is completely separate. And in some ways it's going to be interesting to see how it plays out, because it's almost like they're competing with themselves. So even they are sort of stumbling a little bit of the moment.
Interesting. Well, I guess if you can build something where you put yourself out of business you technically got two winners because everyone's trying to put you out of business So if you can do something where you put yourself out of business then you're it's a good, but you had a good idea Anybody got any questions?
I was just going to jump in there and ask something if I can. Phil, obviously, you know, and this is a question we could ask you in private, but I think, you know, we're very, very transparent here. You know, obviously within the MVR project, you know, we're looking at loads of different IRL options.
loads of kind of, you know, we've got the record label, we've got the animation, we've got going into games, we've got the net-vote metaverse partnership and the social spaces, which you know, to be perfectly frank, in our opinion, is going to be pretty killer. But, you know, are the
should there be other things that NFT projects should be thinking about and in particular, you know, are the things that you think we should be thinking about. I know I'm probably stitching myself up a bit here asking you a question that you could mentally load something and go, "Shit, we can't do that or my God, that's going to be crazy." But no, just really just hear your thoughts on, you know, any killer
kind of ideas that are out there. Look, I don't know your project enough to be able to give concrete advice. I do offer full consultancy service and I'm happy to really understand it. But in the end of the day, I don't think you should be like, what else is pumping
at the moment as far as utility goes and just try to tell that on. It should be more like organically what fits with what we're trying to achieve and sort of complementary things or those type of things. So I would stick with the things that you're confident in doing.
the gaming side seems to be where you guys are, just from the very little but I know, seems to be where you guys are really focused. And I would stick with that. I would be cautious about branching out too much and trying to be everything to everyone, opposed to focusing on what you really think the core strengths of you guys are.
Yeah, that's a very good suggestion. And I think it's interesting as you sort of develop your project. And I'm sure you've seen loads of people that do the same, you know, that we started out with one idea. And then as we've gone through, the community has helped us really kind of narrow that down and also
So what is possible and what is good and what's interesting, I think those are the points. But I think that the marketplace, the sector is moving so fast, isn't it? You're absolutely spot on. It seems to be people jumping, you have the goblins.
Got into our free mint, you know, then everyone jumped on the free mint thing then you had people who were doing the gaming and then it was blah blah blah I think you've got to stick to what you good at and keep going with it But yeah, let's talk anyway because there might be some other stuff that we could We could use you your advice for yeah, but pleasure. I'm always a
available. I think you know you touched on it really to ask previously you know does it do another non-sertube projects that necessarily need a discord and you mentioned Goblin Town now which is a perfect example of the project it doesn't have it's own discord even though it falls you know and the
that project that does have a discord, they don't have their own. There have been a couple, I mean, MFs also never have a discord. I personally, just personally, I think a discord is very, very, very important because in the end of the day, what is the benefits of Web 3 and NFTs? It's really the community. It's like you said, you've
been guarded by the community's sort of, you know, where they begin to move it and often you can get a lot of, like it's almost like a public company with a shareholders, but how you indirect contact with your shareholders all the time and obviously, you know, you've got to be able to also say no when it doesn't fit into the
around the possibility of what you think is best. But here you've got people with a vested interest in your projects that are bringing up great ideas. And yeah, you're not going to make everyone happy all the time. But obviously a community of a hundred people all thinking together will come out with something a lot better than one person, you know, just thinking by themselves.
Definitely and that was the intention of the doubt, you know, I think there's so many projects run ahead just saying right we're gonna do this no matter what whereas the the idea about the doubt and you know our community members that aren't in the doubt are pretty vocal passing good ideas and stuff so you know I think yeah we'll keep doing that
So that sounds great for, but anyway that that was my question. I don't know if anyone else has got anything they want to jump in with or or whether we're good to go. Think one more Tim is anyone was jumping in one more thing while we're ready. No, not at all. If there's anyone who wants to you know request to speak I'm happy
I really have. But one more thing that I do think is very important to touch on at the moment and I did mention it to Clint beforehand. Like we've seen in the last two weeks about four or five massive whales getting hacked. Okay, big whales.
one of them was the founder of Clonex. He lost 26 clones. So these are guys who understand Web 3, who understand the risks and the scans are getting more sophisticated. So I just think it's really, really important for everyone to also know if it's too good to be true or probably is. Obviously do not click any links in your
or just go to itself, don't allow DMs, don't allow friend requests, I know it's not so nice but you really have to do it. A really nice chrome application or extension so then I've downloaded is revoke.cache which everyone knows about is a notable
the space that you have to go to the chrome extension that warns you if you are about to sign a transaction that could potentially drain your wallet. So just be extra careful out there because obviously you have been in your long bear market and the scammers are feeling it out there.
as well. You know, they used to be able to hit the discord and get a thousand people's money. Now they hit a discord, they get 50 people's money. So just be extra cautious. I think it's really, really important. Especially seeing such big players getting hit. So like the last month has been absolutely insane. I've never seen such notable guys lose so much money.
Yeah, agreed. Yeah, it's yeah, and again, I transferred all while the majority of my NFTs into a ledger, because I just thought I started panicking thinking I'm bound to be the one that gets hacked. So ledger, ledger is really, really good, but any cold wallets you
to keep it absolutely cold. So what that means is that you only transfer from your hot wallet, your main wallet that you use to transact to your cold wallet and from your cold wallet back to your hot wallet. If you are using your hot wallet and then you're like, "I want to sell this end of tea."
Now a list is on OpenSea and give OpenSea permission. Then I listed somewhere else. You sort of defeating the whole purpose of it. So the ideal thing is actually to keep your cold water. Absolutely cold. Maybe have a warm water in the middle and then a hot water. I know it's a pain in the ass. The gas is not as bad as it was by any stretch and that's really the
anyway you can make sure that the cold wallet actually keeps you safe. Yeah I use the lucky online blind signing because it's just really one physical 2FA right you know I mean like you got a double click to button to approve the transaction so I feel a little bit better about that. Oh PSI shot you a DM on Twitter
So don't worry. There's no weird hyperlinking there. I'm not okay. I just I have an offline question I need to ask but so check your Twitter Hey guys Hey, good things how you doing guys? Yeah, yeah, I've got a question for
fulfill. If you don't mind me calling you that. Just on the security side, yes, I did see the hacks and I was quite as downed by all that. How exactly did that happen? I mean, if it was in a cold storage, surely they can't steal it. If it's in a cold storage, just by clicking a link, right?
The latest one that we had was the NFT guard who's a very big influence in the space. He purchased a new computer, a
and then installed something that allowed someone to get complete access over his computer, which meant that simultaneously his Twitter, his men are asking, everything was taken over. In that case, anything in the cold wallet would have been secure because he would have
had to do a 2FA. But still, they were able to send out his newsletter that everyone knows is from him, from his email address, with links to things that were malicious. So even if they never directly were able to target anything in these cold wallets, they were able to walk, I think, with, I think 200 ethos, I need to that extent.
The clone expander I actually don't know the exact details of whether it was in a cold wallet or not. I would imagine it wasn't because as you say you'd need to do that signature but it's also possible that he thought he was signing something for the cold wallet to move it somewhere and it was actually signing something malicious that allowed him access to it.
I don't know the full details there. I think one of the last facts too, I guess with MetaMass, when you go to copy your address and you're going to copy and paste, if you do it from the prior transaction, I guess they were just sending wallets but when you would copy the link for your
address it would give them access to it so it was just even if you were just like hitting the copy button of a previous transaction it was one that they sent so it had something in there so it's it's crazy that hackers are getting so advanced it's it's yeah yeah during the laws
There was a funder who was a fungible founder and that's what happened to him. They swapped out his address in Metamask because I guess that's a web to front end hack because they can't hack the ledger and they can't
on hack the blockchain. So that's like on the web to front-end side. I don't use Metamask anymore. I personally use Brave browser because it's private and Ledger has a world connect option now. So if you want
connect anything you can just like put the contract address directly in your ledger live and connect that way without having to do anything necessarily on your browser. So I think that's a little bit more safe but don't quote me on that. The interesting thing with ledger with their new ledger live is that they wrote a
out they haven't done it yet, payment with your ledger life. So it's going to be interesting how they mitigate the risk of that because everyone looks at their ledger as cold wallet and that's the way it should be. But now it's going to be something that you can use to transact. I have no doubt that they will have
have thought of this and have a proper solution for it. But it's going to be interesting to see how they do it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's something with this with the sort of cards and of course you can have multiple wallets on your ledger, right? So, you know, you can have a doxed wallet. So I have like some semi-doxed or doxed wallets like like
this to the profile with my storeable domains. So you can use that to transact and dock, but then you can have kind of secret while it's even within the same device that people don't know about as well. So, you know, which you don't use to make card payments necessarily, but you can just kind of store other crypto and move it to the one that you
make payments with perhaps I don't know. Yeah, something they will do something like that. So the transactional account, whatever you're using to pay at the merchant, will obviously be a completely separate address. And you would then have to before you sort of go to spend it, have a small amount of the effort but going to whatever in there that can
be transacted on, but again it's it's niggly, it's not it's not ideal from a convenience perspective, you know you might just be at the shop and want to spend more than you thought and now all of a sudden you try to access your cold wallet on your ledger to move to your heart wallet, it's not ideal so it's going to be I'm very interested to see how they're able to keep it safe and but still
allow it to be fluid like a credit card within, you know. Yeah, I mean personally, I wouldn't use that for sort of mobile purchases or whatever, if I was trying to get it ticked, you know, by, you know, book a holiday or something that I would do in my laptop or for either country. Not that I would, but if I wanted to, right, you know, you would do that, you know,
from your laptop. So I don't necessarily think that would be or should be used for as I say, you know, kind of mobile transactions. But hey, that's just me. Yeah, I agree. But it's good. It is good for mass adoption. They have something that they linked up with master cards. So it
Anywhere that accepts MasterCard will be able to accept Ledger. That's why I'm watching it closely. I want to understand how they keeping everyone safe, which is their thing. That is what they are about, but still allowing seedless transactions. We want to get massive adoption. We want people to be able to easily and safely transact with
their crypto, ledges is the company to do that. So the solution is going to be very, very interesting. And sorry if I'm hugging a mic, do we need to press on? Oh, yeah, okay. So you mentioned, yeah, sure, you mentioned about when you're kind of buying
and selling NFTs. So, you know, let's just say I want to buy something, I would or I want to sell something in my main kind of ledger wallet. Are you suggesting that I move that to a hot lot wallet and then sell it? And that I don't buy things using my ledger, basically on OpenC.
just in case that's exactly why I'm saying. Okay, okay, don't ever use your ledger to buy stuff because you never know. Right, so you'd only move that asset from your ledger to your own hot account would never ever do
any third party interaction. So it stays as a completely cold wallet. It's a bit tricky when you're kind of, obviously, most of us are on net, we have network, land and network NFTs and stuff, which you have to kind of connect your wallet to to interact with, you know,
some of you holding, so I guess maybe that's a lukewarm wallet. So it's a bit tricky with NFTs that you need to use to interact with certain depths. Yeah, so it is technology that allows you to do it safely and we've seen that with the sticky dash going by Yuga where people have been hiring professional gamers to play on
on their behalf to give the best. And there is a way that you can do it without someone having access to your wallet or your NFT. I'm not 100% sure. The lending thing, I think it is, uh, this NFT lending. I'm not sure. Okay. Great. Thanks. I'm also not sure. But there is a way that that you can
see. Same as when you claim any benefit with an NFT, you don't necessarily need it to be connected to that cold wallet. I don't know exactly how they do it, but they are definitely ways to mitigate that for sure. Okay, great, thanks.
We're all set to top of the hour here. Those that you got do you want to pop on and do you have any final kind of questions Philip here? Um, while I was gonna come in and see how everyone's doing everyone's feeling seeing what's going on. That was awesome freaking hearing from Philip today and yeah, that was badass.
I really like this chat. I like the fact I got asked all these questions because it's been stuff I've been thinking about personally so I'm like this is perfect divine timing anyways. I'll yeah. No, it's all good. Yeah, no, definitely. I don't know if anyone else wants to come up and speak. I don't know if Mr. Bitt had anything else he wanted to say.
I definitely have a giveaway for sure. I know there's definitely a giveaway I could do an MBR giveaway and stuff like that. But yeah, see if anyone else has any more questions or anyone else has anything else to say. And yeah, definitely. I'll drop off a giveaway at the end here and definitely join us for we're going to have rumble right after
the AMAs we're gonna have rumble we're also gonna have smash cards so let me see I think I think Komodo told everyone a smash card so we might have some smash cards and then we'll have rumble after so it'll be a blast after the AMA join us for some crazy games and then yeah I'll probably do it giveaway right here live on the space if somebody could maybe I wonder who can
pick a number here. Someone's gonna have to pick a number for us, maybe. - I'm an objective third party. - Okay, okay, maybe you could pick a number between one and 18 and see how that goes. - Alright, let's do 14.
14, all right, and then we're gonna switch it over to Ben and see on Ben's screen if Ben can hear me. - Right. - Number 14, that way it's jumping around. We'll go to Ben's screen, pick number 14 on your screen, and that's the lucky winner. - Oh, sorry, White Sack, and that is...
Hopefully it's not a... Sorry? Is it me? Is it me? That's Komodo. That's Komodo so we might have to pick a game. Bloody hell. Okay number seven. Bloody hell. Bloody hell mate. Number seven. There you go. Number seven, Bansi, what you got?
That would be Randy. This is going well. This is going well. This is going well, guys. Don't make me pull off the number game in the chat here. You want me to pull off the number game in the chat here? You want me to pull off the number game in the chat here? You want me to pull off the number game in the chat here? You want me to pull off the number game in the chat here? You want me to#
13 that is on my screen big video 12 let's go nice one big 12 well done congrats played it up let's go big video I just I've also just
drawn the winner of the golden Tesla spitter. That was backer.
I'm sure you'll see that jump over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and#
I know the queer guys already sharing some nice videos in the discord. Lea has also been jumping in the game and sharing some stuff and now I'll tell the Graham group. So the rough next looking amazing as it's a Martian. So make sure you take the screen grabs, share them on socials, share them on Twitter. Let's show everyone a
how amazing those avatars are looking. Sorry, crack on, I was stealing your phone over again. No, not at all, not at all, that's bad ass, that's exactly what's up. Yeah, no, definitely. Everyone wants to get it.
got a gothic game that we need to tell the people about oh yeah definitely so everybody tune in for a special game of Gartik on Thursday where we will not have to sit by and watch those terrible drawings we will have some of our own terrible drawings
from then himself he's gonna drop for us so yeah then Miller guard it basically after the last time I came into play Gartick and annihilated everyone it was embarrassing it was right it was
It was the same four movies over and over again. So I decided to do some not movie quizzes on my own. It's scenes from movies, random images and cryptic ones. So and all drawn really quickly and badly. So it's quite funny.
That'll be awesome. Hell yeah. Hell yeah. Right on. That's gonna be crazy. So you guys gotta check that out too. Make sure you join us on Thursday for that. After the AMA you gotta check us out for some games in the discord. Nice. Yeah. We should reach out the
schedule just in the chat as well as those, just so people can see what's happening when, just see what the time the garter gets on Thursday, so that would be a good fun, so if we can get as many people along for that, that would be a lot of fun. Then I reckon we need to do a draw some garter clues as well for the following week.
I mean, surely, but they'll just be too good. It'll be embarrassing for Ben and you'll probably get fired or resigned but potentially even sort of just give up drawing for life after he's actually great and just for people who don't realize I did it. I've done some some
really bad drawings of the clubhouse and Ben obviously saw them and went into panic mode and started drawing some really good stuff straight away which if you need Ben to draw stuff all you've got to do is basically do a really bad version and then he sort of has a little bit of a panic because his name will be associated with it which
is a great way of working but yeah, but you've been working on the Gen 3's haven't you Andy? We're having stick man, yeah, Gen 3's with traits which are which are really kind of exciting. There's a triangle dress
for one of the ladies. You can guess what we're having for the men but it can be a really basic one there and the top hats is the main feature for that one. But anyway, yeah, I'll do you love it. I'll do you love it. It's really a big gift. Anyway, so it should be fun.
Brilliant brilliant. I think that pretty much wraps us up I think is there anything that we've missed I'm just Washing through I don't think so I mean mayfield haven't been playing we haven't forgotten about those guys, so I think they restart Possibly next week we'll get
next week to give us a full on update about how they've been getting on. Yeah, I think that's it. I was just going to say yeah just as one final bit actually I think obviously don't forget we're doing this AMA every two weeks now but I think there's going
going to be some pretty no pressure here at all to anybody but I'm getting quite excited I think there's really a sort of you know build up it's taken as a hell of a long time to get these 3Ds to where they need to be but it feels like we're we're getting very close so hopefully in two weeks time we should have some good
kind of stuff to talk about. We'll have the mind runner. Obviously, as a game they have a good play, we'll have DJing gang. Game will have some new stuff to talk about. We're just coming out of the network space, which again is all top secret at the moment, but we're working very closely with Jungle Free
and very closely with the NetVirks team to produce some fun stuff as well. So yeah, it's going to be interesting time. So keep it on it and yeah, we'll see you all for a game of Smash Carts. I think obviously we're giving away prizes for the Gartik and for Smash Carts, aren't we?
Yeah, so on on on guardic on Thursday. We're gonna give away an MVR so it's gonna be great So it's gonna be a nice prize on Thursday for Guardic MVR and today we are running I think two games So I think we're gonna have some rumble and smash cards brilliant. I do like smash cards and I'll join
in rumble as well. So, okay, I'll see you in the discord chat a bit. One question I was going to say is actually, are we going to open up the bonfire chat? So, we can talk. I just find it that, you know, when I crash Ben and Fire Rock, it's at him and win. I do like to be able to, or I'm
would like to be a little rather to to give him a bit of grief and I know for a fact that he feels the same the other way and I'm pretty sure the queer guy as well basically annihilates you and then runs you over four times and I'm pretty sure there's a little bit of a banter that needs to come out with that as well so maybe we'll open the
bomb patch out this time actually. Okay, sounds good. Yeah, no for sure. Sounds good. I think Camaro is going to drop the link for us. So that'll come in for the smash cards and then we'll set up some rumble right after guys. I'll make sure I don't reschedule my appointments for next week and do that all over you.
