It is an amazing, beautiful Wednesday here in sunny Florida.
High in the upper 70s.
Almost 80s. I can't believe't believe it was this heat wave guys
heat wave but you know what even though we have a heat wave i still managed to work out this morning
and go for a quick three mile jog and let me tell you fam it was pretty quick i timed myself today
and i managed to do three miles in like less than 30 minutes. So I feel really proud of myself. I'm trying to get faster, fam.
I know it takes time.
It takes time to be fine.
But just amazing, amazing space so far.
I see all the friendly faces down here.
What is up, guys?

want to grab that that'd be amazing i will get through the intro here and then we'll definitely push through the interview.
I'm so excited, so excited to be here, fam.
I woke up this morning very, very motivated to get things done.
You know, like every morning is not the same morning, thank God.
Sometimes we have our ups and then sometimes we have our downs.
we have our ups and then sometimes we have our downs but today I made it my
business to get up and be proactive rather than reactive and seizing the day
with my morning routine which is usually a mixture of meditation reading coffee
and then working out and then if I can do all these things before I jump on the computer,
before I jump into my trading course,
then I'm good to go before I do my spaces.
And then that's literally my day every single morning,
which I absolutely love.
I am not by any means, you know, like,
yeah, I'm just, I'm not discouraged. I'm motivated to keep going,
right? I'm more positive than I was yesterday. I'm 0.0001% a little bit better than I was yesterday
because I keep grinding. I keep showing up, guys. And that is half, that's more than half the battle
showing up. That's like 99.9% of the battle. The other 0.1% is just doing it, right? So getting up to
that point is key. I'm just, yeah, I'm just so grateful that we have so many people in spaces
right now. And also on the arena, excuse me. Yeah, I see you guys in the arena. What's up,
fam? I love the arena. I love stages. I love the support over there. So big shout out to the arena fam over there on my other phone.
And on this phone, my ex-fam, you know.
So I love, love doing these spaces every day, showing up and sharing what everyone has when it comes to their communities.
And today we have a special guest with us, the UK crypto queen in the house.
She is a space host.
She does Queen Talks Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. East Coast time.

UK crypto queen.
Welcome to the stage.
How are you today, GM Jam?
Happy Wednesday.
Well, hello. jam jam happy wednesday well hello thank you for such a warm and lovely introduction it's good to be here um not sure that i've met lady before but good to meet you and i hope to learn a little bit
more about you today and yeah i love you loving your routine are you telling me that you uh
didn't have the is it the Saratoga water?
Do you use that? The iced bowl of iced water? Is that your part of the routine?
Oh, my morning routine? No, I don't do it like that guy. No, I don't. I'm not that bougie. You know, I don't have that branded water. I just drink, you know, regular, not tap water,
but you know, it's, it's filtered. And you know, yeah, that definitely goes my morning routine
with my pre-workout, right?
That's why I'm so excited and energetic and happy to be in this space today.
And then, yeah, Lady.
I'm not sure if Lady's there.
Sometimes I like to shout her out because she's with us in spirit, but she also does
a remote job.
But it's great to have a co-host here.

Yeah, she's busy.
But it's cool.
It's cool to have her Pigeons of New York community over here supporting her PFP.
Love those guys doing what they're doing.
And yeah, UK Crypto Queen. i'm really excited for this interview so real quick guys uh purple pill up
there if you could share and tag a few more friends i only see a few reshares on that post i
know we can do better uh appreciate all the time and energy that you guys spend pushing that little
button moving your little fingers i know it's tough sometimes, guys,
but you can do it.
It takes you two, three seconds max.
And then that just helps the space,
helps the algorithm,
helps everyone see what we have today
with UK Crypto Queen.
Yeah, I'm excited.
I was actually in Tom Vivian's space earlier yesterday,
UK Crypto Queen.
We were talking about the space for today.
And he was telling me all these wonderful
words about you. And, you know, I don't know you super well. I think he knows you a little bit
better than me. But, you know, us space hosts, we like to talk about other space hosts in a positive
way, of course. And he had nothing, nothing but flowers to give you. So I'm super pumped for this
interview, UK Crypto Queen. I'm super excited to learn more about how you got started in Web3.
to learn more about how you got started in Web3 and, yeah, just your origin story.
If you're cool, we can start there.
And, yeah, how this discussion rolls is, yeah, just we do an interview format style for about,
I don't know, maybe an hour or so.
And then we open it up to Q&A for the last 30 minutes.
This is about a two, maybe a little over two-hour show.
So that's basically how it works, guys.
And yeah, you are more than free to post anything on the Jumbotron.
You wish you could crypto queen that helps support your brand and bring you more attention,
more exposure to what you were trying to build in this space.
So yeah, I would love, love to get started with, you know, how you got started, how you
began your Web3 journey.
Wow, I love that.
I love that you were talking to Tom as well.
He's such a cool guy.
I did some early spaces with him.
We just used to have so much fun on those spaces.
I mean, literally, we're just really just stupid stuff.
So what I probably will need to do in a sec here is just to see if I can get someone else
to start another space because I'm supposed to be hosting another space on the hour, actually.
But that's OK. I'll see what I can. I'll see if I can get someone else to start that.
But yeah, I mean, oh, my goodness, where do we want to start?
So how did I get into Web3?
I mean, honestly, into Web3 was just through a real curiosity for understanding crypto I grew
an audience over on Facebook beforehand I do coaching I've been coaching probably about 10
or so years doing sales coaching and then I found my way on face onto Facebook and got into
online marketing kind of digital marketing. And I developed,
you know, some training courses and some programs, coaching programs, did lots of, you know, the
five day challenges, all that kind of stuff. And then I ended up working with other coaches,
and I was teaching them how to get leads and ultimately clients into their business. So that was kind of what I was doing
over there. And then through being in Facebook, through meeting people all around the world,
in my communities over there, I met some people that introduced me to crypto. And I kind of got
involved initially, just really to try and support my friends, right. And that was really how it
started, because they were doing stuff. And I didn't really understand it. But I just wanted to show up and
support. And then I just think I thought, you know, I really need to just find out a little
bit more about this. And then of course, I just went down the rabbit hole. Probably about three
years ago, now I want to say, because it was definitely after the last bull run that finished,
I came in in the pico bear
market which everybody is now saying to me you know that was a good time to come in because now
you can learn all the lessons and mistakes and all of that stuff lose loads of money and make
some back and lose a bit more make a bit back and just you know kind of there's no substitute for
actually having experience right so I feel like I'm well positioned this cycle very very excited to
to see what happens still patient happy to to wait for as long as it takes because i do think it's
going to be a pretty mad uh cycle but yeah um that's kind of where i'm at now but there's
probably a lot in between that we can we can delve into yeah i would love that uk crypto queen
you said about three years ago you got started so
was that at the end of 2021 the end of the nft boom or it would have been probably uh around
about that time just trying to think exactly when it was it was definitely i'm just trying to think
now was 21 or was it the beginning of 2022 i think it would have been kind of march april 2022
so yeah yeah it was after it was definitely after everything had gone crazy put it that way
and i came in and i was like this is fun what's going on everyone's like well you know this isn't
the best bit this is like the really boring bit i'm like okay well i'm just learning stuff so i'm
happy you know i love that i love that so you didn't really come in for the NFTs like a lot of traditional
people I've seen in crypto. It's more of you wanted to help your friends out and you saw
this crypto thing. Did you see it as a like possible like side hustle or like income revenue
stream kind of deal? Or was it just mainly your friends were into it and you just wanted to get into it?
Yeah, I just think I was curious
because I'd got some friends
had got me to invest in some stuff
that they were doing on Facebook.
And to be honest now,
I realize now that those things
aren't really on chain, right?
There are a lot of kind of network marketing
kind of things where people kind of just invest.
They're not really buying on chain.
But in order to get,
it was like a staking hub thing that I had to get into I probably still got it somewhere I mean I don't think I even checked on it you know it's just one of those
it was like a couple of hundred dollars um but I didn't know in order to buy this thing I didn't
know how to buy you I had to buy USDT um and I had to set up a wallet and I'd never done that before. So I did that.
Somebody talked me through the steps to do that. And then it was like, OK, so now what happens?
And then I think that just, you know, just piqued my interest. Well, you know, I really need to I
really need to understand all of this stuff. And then, of course, that's it. You know, all this
time later, I'm just kind of still here. And as far as kind of being here and,
you know, being a guest on your space, I mean, that was kind of not really something that I was
aspiring to do to kind of grow an audience or to be, you know, sort of in this full time, but
it just kind of unfolded that way. And, you know, here I am sort of thing. So.
Yeah, I think you showing up consistently for the past three years
have made you, I don't want to say a KOL. I feel like that's almost a dirty word now in some spaces,
but in other spaces it's revered. How do you, how do you think of that word? And do you think
of yourself as like a KOL in the space? No, I think you're right. I think the word KOL gets overused.
I think it gets overused. I mean, it is for key opinion leader. I think of people that are key
opinion leaders like people like, let me say, Raoul Pal, as an example, you know, somebody that is,
you know, that is known to talk about macro, is known to talk about financial markets,
is a thought leader. And, you know, I think that's probably the right use of the word,
someone that is kind of a thought leader, that has opinions about what happens in this space, whether it's an NFT person or a meme person, or, you know, there are a handful of people probably
that I would say I would actually think of as a key opinion leader. So I don't think of myself as that. I think of myself as,
I guess someone else referred to it as like a micro influencer. That's probably the title that
I've kind of stuck on the most because, you know, I think that probably, you know, sums up a bit.
most because um you know I think that probably you know sums up a bit people it you know IRL
will kind of ask me what I do and I just say I host radio shows because that actually makes most
sense um and I talk about crypto that's probably the best thing I can describe it because most
people you and I both know we all know in here that um you know most people don't know what the
hell we do I mean you know I don't know what I do most of the time, you know, I've just kind of feel like I'm, what am I even doing here some days,
you know, but, but I do enjoy it. I, I, I'm a very, very curious person. I do. I just, I like it. I
like the fact that I've met people. I like the fact that we can make friends and connect with
people all around the world. And I am very, very interested in blockchain.
I mean, it is about blockchain.
That's really, for me, what excites me, you know, the evolution of blockchain and where
we're going.
I do love meme culture.
And I kind of feel like I've gone on a kind of like 360 because I started out being really
interested in obviously the usual, you know Ethereum understanding those you know and then I got really into XRP and I kind
of think that looking back I was probably a bit of an XRP maxi went down that rabbit hole and then
I got into my first meme project on Ethereum and I ended up selling all my XRP as a lot of people
did and then I just was in memes and then i've really pretty much been in
memes um mostly um and sort of you know helping sort of communities build communities in the meme
culture um and then i think it's probably how i ended up meeting tom um in a meme project on eth
uh and then i've more recently i would say that I've got back into more of that kind of you
know quote-unquote utility type project um through through getting involved with SWE
um because it's just uh I I went to SWE because I uh connected with someone actually just you know
just said listen come over and have a look at this project it was a project called Axel which is actually the the space that I'm supposed to be
hosting on the on the hour um my my my guy the guy that I normally host for JSP just messaged
and said listen I don't know if I can start the space today normally I would just be able to join
but anyway I'll try and sort that out in a sec here um we'll we'll see if we can get someone else
to do that I didn't realize sorry I apologize um
so yeah what else what else uh yeah and then I've ended up just getting interested in other things
that are being built over on SWE right like there's you know a project called Warris which is a
storage um solution decentralized storage there's other things like e-car which is off which offers
things like you know interoperability with it, you know, all sorts of things.
So I kind of feel like memes brought me to, you know, SWE, but now I'm, you know, sort of looking out and exploring into other things as well.
So that is interesting.
So you started out XRP and then you moved into meme tokens.
And then finally, Sui.
No, I'm a big Sui.
I don't want to say Maxi, but I definitely support a lot of the Sui platform.
Or sorry, the Sui chain and then all the different platforms that are integrated onto the Sui blockchain.
I think that is a a really really amazing chain i
think it's going to be the next soul uh and um and yeah we uh we see all these different blockchains
growing and over time uh we just meet different types of people uh and we form these communities
around us right and we keep coming back and um that's what I love about Sui. And I'm really
glad, UK Crypto Queen, that you're getting more into Sui. And I'm actually seeing more Sui spaces
because I was bullish on Sui since last year, I would say towards the end of last year,
around, I would say, Q4 of last year. That's when I really started to notice Sui. So I'm curious to know, since we're on this topic,
let's just keep diving a little bit deeper. What got you interested in Sui, that blockchain
specifically, I guess migrating from your meme coin communities? Yeah, let's start there.
right there so what was the question how did I get interested from into SWE through the memes
is that the question yes yeah so so what happened was um so I was in a project called Miro which
was on Solana um which I'm not sure whether you are familiar with that project um and I I was part
of that community I made lots of friends in that community and um uh the one of
the community members wasn't part of the team but just was somebody that really sort of stepped up
used to host a lot of spaces and was very much a sort of a leader in that in that community a guy
called Keith Schmer I don't know whether you know him um but he um long story short I ended up
hosting these spaces I was doing these spaces daily for
Jake or Jake Gagan. I was working with him and his team. And so we were doing those spaces. And
then Keith, who was in Miro with me, used to come in and talk about this project called Axel. And
he would just come in like, he's relentless. Like, you know, you were just saying about
consistency and showing up every day. I mean, that really is how you end up getting noticed right um and so Keith would come in and he'd be in behind
the Axel PFP and he'd say hey remember me and he'd come in every day and and then he'd be in my DMs
and he'd be let you know have a look at this and then um I just was going into those and that would
have been um I want to say October last year um and uh I just started you know getting involved in in the
spaces and then um that just kind of you know just sort of grew really into you know obviously being
part of that team just doing just hosting spaces really a couple of times a week but getting
involved in the community because it is really a great community um and then I
threw uh the fact that I was doing the Jake uh spaces with JSP who I do still work with a lot
actually by the way um and we work really well together but but I met someone called David
Eisenhower who also was working with Jake he He runs kind of a media company.
He works with a lot of meme projects.
And he got me involved in Lofi.
So he's the founder behind a project called Lofi,
which is a great project that I think when the market comes back again,
I think we're going to do really, really well over there.
But he's got lots of uh connections with SWE so one of the things that he decided he wanted to do um was to
you know build those build those connections develop that network within the uh SWE ecosystem
and so really through working with Lofi I then got involved with other um other projects and I'm not really sure when I start I
can't remember when I started doing Queen Talks I think I've been doing it for a few months I was
certainly doing it sort of end of last year um and through that I've just met lots of lots of
people in the SWE community and then I end up sort of you know going on to a lot of the spaces that
David uh hosts um because he hosts spaces with all of the founders I don't know sort of you know going on to a lot of the spaces that David hosts because he
hosts spaces with all of the founders I don't know how much you know about me but the founders
are the team at Miston Labs and there are five of them and then they're absolute gigabrains but
David has developed a lot of good relationships with those guys and you know through hosting
spaces through interviewing them you know like you know this conversation talking to them about how they got started um and all that kind of good
stuff so um so I've met a lot of those people just through being active in in spaces and obviously
hosting my own spaces and um and then the more I've gone down this wee rabbit hole the more I've
just been like wow this is this is incredible what is actually being built here. So there's just so
much to explore. But, you know, I've been really reluctant to say I am a sweet maxi because I do
have a lot of friends and I'm still invested in other projects that are on the Solana blockchain,
for example. I've got base, a whole Brett, and I still believe Brett's going to do some numbers
this cycle. So, you know know I think a lot of people will
probably see me as somebody that is is in SWE a lot because I do spend a lot of time over here
but um I am really a profit maxi and so I'm always looking for you know whatever is gonna gonna you
know be a good investment really and I do like to think of myself as an investor I do like to go to
the casino occasionally.
I usually end up getting my ass handed to me.
So there's no point, really.
I'm just going, oh, let me just go and lose a couple of hundred dollars.
Let me just go and maybe I should just throw it, burn it, send it straight to the burn wallet.
I don't know.
Yeah, I totally agree with you there.
I think we all want to be making money in the space, right?
making money in the space, right? And so we all think of ourselves as investors, not gamblers.
And so we all think of ourselves as investors, not gamblers.
But with gambling, you can make a lot of money, but you can always lose a lot of money too.
With investing, it definitely sounds a lot more secure. And I want to talk more about your Queen
Talks. How did that get started, UK Crypto Queen? And what do you talk about usually in your talks?
And it's sad that I have to miss them every morning because I have a training that I go to to learn how to trade in the mornings.
But yeah, talk to us more about what you talk about in your spaces, being a space host, that kind of journey.
Because, you know, I feel like a lot of people
are aspiring space hosts, right? They aspire to do it, but they're afraid that people won't show
up, right? They're afraid to be embarrassed. They're afraid, you know, there's a lot of anxiety
around space hosting. And so I would love for you to illuminate us more on, I would say your journey
in the space hosting realm. I know Facebook doesn't really have anything like this. So I'd
love to hear more about your Queen Talks. Well, you know, the funny thing is, and I totally hear
you on that, because I do think that there is a lot of anxiety around it. And I think it comes
from, you know, I mean, obviously, people just obviously people just think well you know who's going to want to listen to me you
know waffling on forever I'm actually less I mean I am fully doxed but I'm actually less doxed over
here than I was on Facebook I mean I wasn't UK crypto queen when I was on Facebook so and I have
kind of struggled with this whole thing of well how do I how do I combine the two?
Because, you know, that that's that's that's a challenge to know how to do that.
But I mean, I used to do like five day challenges on like, you know, with my camera on and my like sharing my screen and I'd like run coaching.
So I'm used to public speaking. I've been a coach for 10 years.
for 10 years um so i'm used to speaking you know speaking is what i do right so so there's that but
So I'm used to speaking, you know, speaking is what I do. Right.
but even with that when i came into crypto and i remember going into some of the space and i'd be
like i remember the first space that i spoke on which was a very small space that wasn't even
being recorded and i was um i was very nervous and i was very hesitant because you know like you said
you're like well what have i got to say what do I know so I would just encourage anybody that is listening in that is thinking about doing it just start you know
just just open up a space and if nobody comes I can remember opening my early spaces and nobody
did come and then one person came and then somebody else came and there were times when
nobody came but but it's okay because if you don't record it and even if you record it you can still delete it and actually what I would say um is I would encourage people also to um to uh
go so sorry I got so distracted because I'm actually staying at someone's house at the
moment and they've just arrived home so I'm just completely distracted um I would just encourage
everybody just to do it right because what is the
worst that can happen what is the worst that can happen do you know what I mean
just do it do it what is it what's that saying feel the fear and do it anyway
feel the fear and just do it anyway I was just thinking about Nike just do it but I like that
too that's pretty cool no I like that phrase. That's pretty cool. No, I like that
phrase. I'll definitely pin it up on my wall. I'm writing it down right now. But yeah, UK crypto
queen. I want to hear more about your queen talks. So tell me. Oh, I'm sorry. One of the things that
I do a lot, right? I'm not diagnosed ADHD, but I have a son who is diagnosed and through getting to know him I've realized that
I am absolutely 100 ADHD and one of the things I do is I go on little tangents and I never quite
finish the original thread so I do apologize because I know everyone talks about you know
I'll land the plane here my plane just never lands it just kind of like you know drifts off somewhere and I don't have any direction
Queen Talks is really Queen Talks came about because I was doing a space every morning Monday
to Friday 8 a.m eastern standard time with JSP we were host that was hosted by Jake Gagan and his
team so it kind of gave us a little bit of a platform because obviously I don't know whether
you know Jake Gagan but he's got quite a big following and is quite well known in the meme space and so um it was
really just because we had the opportunity to have a platform it was a meme shill space I mean
it literally was JSP and I would get up and we'd talk about the markets and then people would just
come up and shill and it was like straight you know three minute four minute shills so that
was kind of where it started and and then um that kind of ended because I think Jake was kind of
you know we just said listen we're going to pause this for a while we were all getting busy doing a
lot of things um and people kind of started dming me and just saying well we really miss like hearing
from you you know the mornings aren't the same they were good fun because we kind of had this little you know little um community of projects that all kind of were
were building and most of them at that time I think were on Solana actually um because that
was when you know everything was really hot on on the meme side and pump fun hadn't kind of ruined
it for everybody at that point so so it was all good. But I just think that it was just because people kept reaching out
and saying, well, look, you know, why don't you do a space?
And so JSP at that point was off doing something else.
And I thought, you know, I'm just going to just start.
And I have to say, initially, I was fairly consistent.
But there were days when I was like, I really don't feel like doing this.
And I think more recently I have uh
really focused on just being consistent even on the days that I don't feel like it because I do
know that it is really how you just keep moving forward um and so we talk about all sorts of
things um and that's you know a lot of a lot of it is about SWE at the moment um and there's been
a lot happening I mean certainly in March um there were all sorts of launches that were happening so we were talking about that um we talk about memes and we do talk
about the projects that i'm in of course because i get to shill all my bags as well um but um we
have people come in and just jump up we've got people in the community that do a lot of ta
uh we've got people that are big macro people. I myself am very interested in
macro and I'm learning more about that. I don't kind of gatekeep the stage if people want to come
up and they want to talk about their projects. That's cool as well. It is really about community
building. And I have found that uh through that you know the more the
more people that come to that space the more exposure than that gives me um and so you know
yeah it works and we've got some great people I mean I see I see Aaron down there who is a is a
friend and comes in and supports me um I see there's a guy called Faf down there who I haven't
met but I know he comes into my spaces and I see lamb lemore is it um I've seen lemore coming into my spaces so there's a few people
that pop in starseed as well I see um tricky butter uh always always a good thing to see you
popping out my friend so yeah um we just have a good crowd of people we just have you know what
I always say your vibe attracts your tribe um and I do try
and keep it positive I like to always look on the positive side I'm not kind of you know um I'm I'm
not someone that is delusional about things and you know we we we show up on the red days and we're
like oh you know things are boring you know what we're going to do today but we always find things
to talk about there's always good people that come in.
And yeah, it's just good vibes.
Good vibes.
Love that.
I love that.
So it sounds like starting spaces wasn't too difficult for you.
And being consistent, even on the days that you don't want to be.
I definitely feel that.
I feel that UK Crypto Queen, sometimes I don't want to be. I definitely feel that. I feel that UK Crypto Queen, sometimes
I don't want to run my spaces either, but it's a commitment. And I think once we have that
commitment in our minds, we have to commit to something, we show up, right? Because we show up
not for our community, but we show up for ourselves, right? And it's in us, it's part of us. And every time when we hit that live
button into spaces, hit ready, set, go, we are live. And we want to share it with the rest of
our fam, you know, the people that are here in this space that keep supporting us every time,
we don't want to let them down, you know, so it's like, it's almost just like two-edged sword, right? In so many ways.
And I think the fact that I keep running my shows, and for those of you who don't know,
we used to be called Cro-Fam Radio. I was actually part of the Kronos, well, I still am part of the
Kronos chain. And I was a Cro-Maxie way back in the day when I joined the Cro-Ginal Cats last summer and got really into Web3 more, I would say, being their space host.
But it's taught me a lot.
You know, it's a space host and it's taught me a lot just with the types of people that I meet in this space every day.
but how human behavior reacts to, let's just say, the market, and then also just with other people around us sharing with us what they have when it comes to predictions, right, and dreams and goals and aspirations.
And I think a lot of what we hear in this space is almost idealistic.
What's the good word I'm thinking of?
Idealistic realizations that hopefully we hope to get there, right?
You know, we have these big dreams.
And I absolutely love, you know, keeping it optimistic in the space. You know, we want to make sure when people
visit our spaces, they're in a very safe and secure space. You know, like there's no bad actors here.
We're just we're trying to help. You know, we're here to support. Supporting is key, especially a
lot of these builders in the spaces. So, yeah, I love that UK crypto queen that you wanted to
keep going with your space, even though some days you just not feeling it. So, yeah, I love that UK crypto queen that you wanted to keep going with your space,
even though some days you just not feeling it. So yeah, I totally get that. I totally get that.
But we're still here. We're still grinding. And I absolutely love that. Share more with me some of
the current communities that you are excited about and that you're a part of? Because it sounds like you're this person
that loves to just invest their time and energy
in communities, you know, specifically on SUI, it sounds like.
So what projects are you excited about currently?
Yeah, I mean, at the moment,
it has been mainly the SWE community.
Like, I mean, it's interesting because SWE,
what I've noticed about SWE
is that you have a lot of crossover
between the communities.
And obviously on the memes,
you know, there are less memes.
You tend to have memes that,
the charts are very different
to the charts that you see on Solana, right?
You tend to have projects that maybe there's a meme in there, but they're also building some kind of utility
with it, right? So you tend to have these kind of, I call them memes point 2.0. So I'm very
involved with the Axel and the Lofi communities. And I'm also, like, I've noticed that I've met a
lot of people, even from like the NFT communities,
and you've got things like Warris and Eka and, you know, Tugboat.
And there's just so many really cool things that are being built.
And what I tend to find is that a lot of those communities will kind of vibe together.
So you will see, you know, if I host a loafi space, for example, you'll have people that
are in other, you know, other projects with you that, you know, so there's a, it seems to be a lot more crossover. So I would
say that I spend at the moment, most of my time hanging out in those kind of SWE communities. If
I'm hosting spaces, then it's usually, you know, a similar kind of audience, similar kind of people.
The other thing I do a lot is I hang out with my friends that host spaces right so I hang
out a lot in um and I try and go up and speak on other stages so this has actually been something
that I've been trying to challenge myself to do right because I feel like we just need to step
out of our comfort zone a little bit so for me that was just going into spaces where there were
bigger um bigger audiences right so I recently
spoke on a um a space that was you know one of the Mario spaces that was based on memes and I
was invited to speak on that so I did that um I've been pushing myself to to kind of make new
connections in other spaces um and um there's a you know just friends that host spaces really so
just people that I've got to know in the space because you know what it's like when you're hosting spaces you are working even if
you're even if it's like you just you know you're hosting it so you've got to be keeping an eye on
things so sometimes i just like to just pop into you know when my friends are just hosting and just
listen in or join in on the conversation i do feel when you're in crypto you know we know how
quickly this this industry moves right we know how
you know it's 24 7 and it moves very quickly and if you have a couple of hours away you know you're
gonna miss something right so i just find that listening in on spaces you know checking out what
the what the thoughts are about what's going on what's in the news what's the sentiment like um
and yeah it's just kind of how we learn and how we keep our finger sort of on the
pulse, I guess.
Yeah, that makes sense.
That makes sense for sure.
We want to be up to date.
We want to be in the know.
And I really like what you said, UK Crypto Queen, of jumping into other spaces that you're
not familiar with or you want to be a speaker with or be a part of
because yeah you just don't know and being uh I guess uncomfortable or being comfortable being
uncomfortable is the right phrase um that's what we should all aspire to be more because if we
if we are uncomfortable uh we're you know like we're taking a risk almost it's this um we're
we're going out of our bubble so to speak right and we we like to insulate ourselves too much
i find even yeah no i agree with that and i think what i'm finding as well is you know because we
see a lot of the same people like certainly thinking
about SWE we've got all these wonderful communities that all kind of intermingle and come to spaces
and do all of that but the the real challenge I think for the the the ecosystem really is to
introduce new people to the chain right and so you know I feel like there's an opportunity to do that
and obviously you are going to have people that are, you know, absolute ETH maxis or
absolute Solana maxis.
But, you know, I do feel like there's an opportunity to kind of just share it with
It took me a little while to come over from Solana because I was over there just, you
know, having a bit of fun and I was in some projects over there.
It took me a little while.
But then when I started looking at it, I was like, oh, OK, I get it right.
This is interesting. And I think, you know you know I mean there's a rule in marketing it's called the rule
of seven where it takes seven touches to actually get someone's attention like before somebody will
even look I think with SWE for me it took me a little bit longer than that but eventually I
realized that there was so much you know that that was uh was going to be really onboarding
the masses like for me um you know what does what
does that look like you know onboarding the masses i think it will be when people are using the
blockchain you know on their phone but they don't even know it right that is the point when everybody
is using the blockchain and i think that that is inevitable because the tech you know, blockchain just changes everything, right? It just changes everything because, you know,
it just means that we have this, you know, this trustless, transparent,
you know, everything is on the blockchain.
I know a lot of people don't know how to read the blockchain,
but, you know, and there's still a lot of people
that are bad actors in this space.
But, you know, essentially, that's because most people don't know
verify the information um uh so i'm just i'm just excited for for what is being built i mean as an
example with swi and i mean i could sit and talk about swi all day long and i'm not going to vomit
over your listeners vomit information but one of the things you know is there's something called
ck login which means that
you can actually just you know create a wallet with your gmail account and that to me is pretty
big because most people do not want to have to store seed phrases or do not want to have to have
a private key or that you know they don't it just seems like it's too complicated for people and it
is you know i've onboarded my friends into it and it's, it's complicated.
But if I can just say, Hey, here you go.
Here's, you know, I can send them something and you know, that they literally just need
to log in with their Gmail and then they're on it.
That just, that is just a big, you know, a big difference.
So it's stuff like that really.
So yeah, I went off on a tangent again.
I apologize.
No, you're okay.
I'm still in the back.
I was trying to sort someone to, to, to get into this, uh, start this axle space.
Cause it's supposed to be starting in 10 minutes. So bear with me. Um,
I may, I may need, I may need to go in 10 minutes.
I actually may need to go, um, because, uh,
someone else that I co-host with, um,
is, is not around because he's got a death in the family.
So it is a bit of an unusual situation.
Normally, one of us would be able to do it.
So I may need to go.
I'm just trying to see what the score is.
The other person actually that could do it is actually a doctor.
So he may well be at work.
So it's always a way, isn't it oh no oh no oh hopefully
i know i'm so sorry because i literally did not i thought i thought i was going to be here for
now so i apologize it's my fault i should have listened to one of your previous spaces before
but i mean if anybody does have any questions for me then i would be more than happy to um to to
answer those before i need to jump out. And then maybe I could come back
again. I'm sorry. Yeah, let's see here. We can do some questions. We do have a few requests over
here. One second, fam. Yeah, I'd hate to cut this interview short, UK Crypto Queen. But yeah, let's
definitely get a few people up here to see if they have any questions for you I see we have Arcadian
let's see if he's here
I think he might have a few
questions for us
he is trying to connect
and then real quick guys
we haven't shared space yet, please do
like, tag a few more people
super appreciate it
and he is trying to connect
are you there Arc Arcadian GMGM?
Happy, happy Wednesday.
I got to admit, I even took the opportunity to jump in the shower,
and this turned into my radio show for the day.
It was really enjoyable.
Yeah, dude, thank you again.
Hosting great spaces, keeping the energy up. And those of us here, South Africa side, we're loving it. People are starting to download X because of you. Right. They didn't even do it because of me. I hate them and I love them at the same time. Hey, UK crypto queen. A pleasure to meet you. What a great surprise to even be on the same floor.
Thank you. I've been listening to you. I do have a couple of questions for you, if you don't mind, before you have to run out. Oh, wow. Absolutely. What a great pleasure to meet you as well, my friend.
Yeah, go ahead. I'm so sorry that I'm kind of just a little bit stumped here because I really wasn't was was hoping I would be able to start my space.
I feel terrible, but I would love to answer your question.
Absolutely awesome.
Okay, so I'm not the usual, I'm not the normal kind of exer here, right?
I come through, I'm 43 years old, so I'm a little over the hill,
although my voice might say I sound a bit younger.
I get that quite a lot.
But I've been a financial advisor um a real estate agent um i've built
houses built cars repaired cars and i've got a very varied kind of um background that i come from
i work for uh some of the top 100 life insurance and investment companies as well
so i get to understand this from from all these different angles
but and and i'm also a founder of a
project i got this great idea to start a project seven years ago and i haven't done anything yet
we we're actually in the in the in the process of actually putting our first item in the market
and you hit something that that struck me so importantly is everyone out in x is trying to understand this thing called
the blockchain but the projects that are really going to take the cake are the ones that are going
to make it so easy that they don't even know blockchain is there right it's just i'm going in
with my card i'm making some money and i spending it. That's all that they should know.
So just want to mention the platform, the platform that we've, that we set up.
I've made a hundred percent sure that people log in and create their stuff with their Gmail.
You said it, right?
You said it.
I've been listening a long time to everybody in the space.
What are your thoughts on um what would you
say are the top three things the top three criteria that our project should meet in order to make it
kind of like an a plus go for it easy thing what in your opinion well i mean what you know i suppose
i would ask you what sort of question do you mean? I mean, what sort of project, because obviously, there's so many different types of project, right? If you were asking specifically about a meme project, it would be a different answer to, you know, how does a project on the utility side make themselves successful. I mean, the overriding thing, and I've been thinking about this a lot the last few weeks, and I don't know if this is going to answer your question, but it doesn't matter
because I come from a sales marketing background. For me, I've been thinking, well, listen,
you can have the best project or the best utility or the best thing in the world. If nobody knows
about it, then nobody is going to use it, right? Because we're all inherently a little bit
like, you know, everyone's busy, you know, everyone's distracted. And we're all inherently
a little bit lazy and a little bit like selfish, right? That's just human nature. So what's in it
for me, and I think that if you are a project, and you are able to communicate the value of your
project, whether it's a meme, whether it's a utility whether it's
an rwa whatever it is you have to be able to communicate the value and and and also you have
to be really clear about who is your target market because what i see a lot is you know
you were just saying right there you're in your 40s you're generation x um everyone keeps calling
generation x boomers It's like really
like irritating me. I keep saying to people, they're not boomers, but boomers are, some of
the boomers are dead at this point, you know, or they're certainly not looking at crypto. They're
retired. They're handing on to their Generation X children who are the people that are in there,
probably in their sort of 40s. It just, you know, there's a lot of things like you've asked me for
a lot of information. I think I'd probably want to be more specific but I think sales and marketing you know um SWE is a good
example of uh great tech and the founders of Mr. Knabs are very very vocal and very active on the
timeline and they do a lot of interviews but when I listen to them, they're very tech. You know, they're gigabrains,
these guys, right? They're just really, really smart people. So the way they communicate is not
the way the average person is going to get it. Because what I want to know is, how is it going
to make my life simpler? How is it going to save me time? How is it going to make me money? How is
it going to make me more beautiful? How is it? make me more beautiful how is it I mean you know
it's all of those things right there's only three real main uh needs that we have you know or three
niches and that is health wealth and relationships everything fits into that and you could have a
a project that's that's on the blockchain that actually solves one of those things or addresses one of those areas um so it is just about that that communication i think and how you how you
market your your product to you know to get people interested but but yeah you're right i mean people
are just going to be on their people are going to be like logging into their banking app in the same
way that they do now and they're going to be dealing with you know whoever the bank is and they'll be on the blockchain and they won't even
know it so that that will be when we hit that point we are a long way off that at the moment
perhaps we're not so far actually perhaps we're not so far so yeah i mean thank you for the
feedback you're 100 correct i've said this to my teams uh i speak you know down
in the weeds right i talk about the tech stuff it makes sense to me but the average joe and that's
and that's what we're missing here all if you count all of these people on x how many what two
three hundred four hundred everyone on crypto four hundred million people um but all of our target
market is the other people the ones that that don't do anything
in here and it's simply because they don't they don't get it they can't get it and we're trying
to explain where the horses in the car go before the car was invented that's kind of the feeling
i get right i get that a lot so i'm great at coming into a room and i'll speak with you know
50 people 100 people and i'll leave that room and I've noticed that I'll leave their jaws on the
ground with no direction so I started surrounding my surrounding the project with people who can
make it make sense um without saying how it works and simply that well this is all you need to do
one two three the rest is made for you
those of us who i mean who spent years to of sacrifice building that just to make it easy
but this has been great it's really been a pleasure being up on the floor i'm not going to
take too much more time thank you so much to you once again so much respect for everybody else here
and yeah god first and everything see you guys later
awesome i just gave you a follow as well my friend i'd be interested to see what pops up
on my timeline when i i followed you so yeah beautiful i love that um oh man i lost my co-host
that's okay uk uk uh crypto queen um do you have to go or what, what, what's going on with your space? I want to make sure that I respect your time.
Yeah. So I was trying to get someone else to host this, uh, community space for Axel. Um, I need to log in to, I've only got my phone with me.
So, cause I'm staying at friends and I need to log into that space to start that space. Um, because my co-host actually is not available because of a death in the family
normally i'd have been able to reach out and i was just trying to get someone else involved but
not looking too hot on that so i i apologize because i um i assumed that that it was going
to be a shorter space but that's yeah i'm sorry to to to have to leave on on the hour
it's really bad but you, it is what it is.
Maybe we can do it another day.
Maybe we can do it another day again.
No, you're totally fine.
If you have a link, like a space link to that community space,
maybe we can just move all over there, you know?
Come on, Ava!
There we go.
I love it.
Let's support communities that you're supporting.
Yeah, I think that would be amazing
uh if anyone has any more questions uh to the uk crypto queen uh you can just um ask her in that
space but yeah um we definitely support all the different communities over here especially suey
so yeah i want to make sure that we have the, uh, the time to support, you know,
so, uh, yeah, I just pinned it up above. So if anybody does want to come on over there,
I'm just going to start that space, um, behind the axle, the axle. And actually it's a really
good project. Um, and the people that come in are really just good people, you know,
we've just got some great people that come on over there. So, so yeah, I am going to have to go and do that. And then I am,
and then I'm done for a couple of hours. And I'm actually staying with a friend who is cooking
dinner tonight. And I've got some cocktails, and it's just gonna chill out a little bit and sit
out here in the sunshine. And just yeah, so but no, thank you so much for inviting me. And I've
enjoyed this conversation. And I'm sorry, if I went off on lots of little rabbit holes,
but I always tend to do that.
But yeah, come on over.
You're so awesome.
Thanks for joining us today.
UK Crypto Queens also to hear about your journey and everything.
And I'll definitely try to tune into some of your spaces as well
since we have an ETA standard time where I'm located.
So that's awesome it's lovely
to speak to you lady always love meeting new people in this space I just followed you as well
um and I'm already following so yeah follow to the queens in the space because it's always nice

Right. And that's the thing. We've just got to lead by example.
And it's always good to meet, you know, to meet you, darling.
So, yeah, I love your PFP as well. Right. I'm going to jump out, guys.
But thank you so much. Thank you for giving me the time. Appreciate you.
Yeah. Thank you so much, UK Crypto Queen. Follow her, guys, if you're
not following. And
posted on the Jumbotron

Sui Chain, Reminder
Space. It's a community space.
All things Sui. Definitely jump
in there. UK Crypto Queen's going to start
that space. We're just going to move over there,
guys. And we're shutting this space
down a little
bit earlier than usual, but it is OK. We want to make sure we respect all the queens in the spaces
and what they're trying to do and promote and build. So thank you. Thank you again, UK Crypto
Queen, for being on this space for Web3 Women Wednesday. And yeah, we'll definitely do it again.
I want to do it again for sure.
Get the full two hours.
We want to dig definitely deeper into your lore, your narrative.
You know, it's so important to learn more about the people who are supporting great projects.
Oh, I would love to do that.
I mean, I could literally talk, you know, I could talk all day.
Just keep going.
Oh, lovely to be here.
I'll see you on the next space, guys.
See you in a second.
All right.
We'll see you over there.
We'll see you over there, fam.
And we're going to close up this space now, fam.
So appreciate everyone rocking up and supporting CryptoFam Radio.
Tomorrow's space will be canceled canceled but we will be back
here for fearless friday at noon east coast time so we'll see you guys then and in the meantime i'm
gonna leave this space open a little bit longer so you guys can see on the jumbotron there see the
space reminder and jump over there i'll give you guys about a minute before i close it down all
right so thank you so much again guys. Appreciate everyone rocking up and supporting CryptoFam Radio Web3 Women Wednesday, episode 32. Let's go, fam. Thank you. Oh Thank you. Thank you.
