I am presented by the Scribber Network. Yes, both of us. I'm very part of the Scribber family. That's happy to be so. So, hi, economics. Thank you for joining us. That is. I guess the first question is,
How did you get into crypto web 3 all of that?
I actually started my crypto journey back in 2017 like a lot of people. I dabbled a little bit, got lucky like a lot of people, went through the roller coaster ride that everyone else did, but I did see massive potential in this space.
even though I didn't come out that well after the big crash in 2018, I definitely saw the opportunity and the potential in this space. So I got myself educated in finance and started doing some courses. I got mentored by a couple of different people around the world in different industries.
to really learn the ins and outs of financial markets. And after a couple of years of grinding, I ended up being asked to join one of my original mentors, you know, poached me to sort of come and work for him and teaching other people how to trade as well, especially in sort of the leverage trade.
And from there to sort of spiraled out of control, I used to run my own motorsport business. I'm a mechanical engineer by trade and ran my own business for about 12 years. And eventually got good enough at trading that I could basically sold my business and just focus fully on trading for the last year.
nearly four years now. That's been my sole profession is just trading crypto and and equities and commodities and that that's pretty much me. That's pretty cool man. Tuoji, tuoji, like yeah you're your hard experience of one full cycle with
which is cool. Yeah, I've been through a couple of cycles now. It's interesting. I enjoy it. Yeah, exactly. It's like the Accommodation feeds me. Yeah, I think everyone has to go through it. Like a lot of people, you see new faces come into the space every time. And you sort of, you're almost just picked
their journey. You know what phase they're on in the cycle where everyone sort of goes through that phase where they think they know everything and they're invincible because they make an absolute bank and then yeah you go through the bear market like all right you've been initiated now you've made a fortune you've lost it all now it's time to learn how to do this properly.
just before during this beer market, like I wanted to sell all of my crypto at if Bitcoin would have touched 80k. It never went there. So like I just write it down. But yeah, like you know, yeah, I learned so much during the last cycle. So no, I'm not going to do the same mistake again.
I need another one. We have a really strong will to know when to pull that rip cord so to speak. Exactly. It's harder than people. It's easy to say, it's easy to look at the chart and say, "Oh, that's where I should have solved."
In the moment, it's a lot harder to actually pull that trigger. Let's just wait one more 10%. So I can get to that number and then yeah, then it never happened. Exactly. And then you don't 80%. That's like then it's too late now. Right now, my as well.
Exactly. Yeah. When they go low, I buy more. That's where I'm at these days. That's what we do. It's what we do. So, all right. So that's how you got into crypto. So,
I guess how did you come up with Scriber? What was the initial plan and now that you've launched, officially launched the website and everything? What is the intention?
like what is the problem that you saw that scriber fixes or solves? So scriber's gone through a few name cycles already. We originally called the bullpen and it was primarily just a group of me and a bunch of mates and a bunch of guys who got
I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I was an intern, I#
So we started to get a little bit more serious about turning this into a business. I ran into a whole heap of drama when I was trying to get a little bit more serious about turning this into a business.
the name and the company and all that sort of stuff. The name has taken everywhere and it was just impossible to work with. So we ended up having to change the name and that's where we went through a bit of a workshop of coming up with a name and that's where we landed on Scriber. It's a bit of a play on words from Scriber but using
and alternative spelling just due to the ability to get the correct domain names and things like that's almost impossible you've got to use alternative spelling. So that's sort of where it came up, where we came up with the idea. But what it originally was, like I said, it was a bit of a social group for traders to come together and hang out.
But what we started to do as a group, there was a few of us who would branch out and do research on certain things. So we didn't, I guess the problem that we were solving internally was, you know, all these different discords and stuff have what they call alpha callers. But what we were seeing was just like a bunch of kids talking about some project that's
and take profit at four and a half so I might be made six congratulations. Like is that what you guys call Alpha calls? Like this was ridiculous. So what we started doing was we would actually do in depth research on specific projects that were coming out. So we had guys that would dive into discord and interview
behind our community and then we thought, "Well, why don't we allow everybody to see this? Why don't we create a website where we can actually share this information with everybody else?" Because we're doing some really good research, we're writing some really good reviews and papers on these projects. Maybe we should be sharing this with everybody else to help with project discovery.
So that's sort of where the idea of making scriber into a business and allowing everybody to see it. And then it sort of spiraled out of there. Well, what are we, you know, write articles as well? You know, some of us write medium articles. Why don't we add that on to our project research and have, you know, a place where people in the
the crypto space could write really thoughtful pieces of information, education, investment thesis and stuff like that and start writing articles on our website and creating that sort of content. Previously I used to do a lot of YouTube videos and I've done a lot of live streaming.
we wanted to add that element as well and podcast with Twitter spaces blowing up. So it's sort of just spiraled out of there and it ended up just becoming this big platform for people who like to create content to be able to create that platform for them to share that content into one space. So instead of having to go on YouTube and
Spotify and Medium and Trading View and all that sort of stuff we could just share it all in one place and try and make that a really cool place to come and get the information that you need. So that's sort of, I guess, the goal or the problem we're solving. Yes. Can we join?
As the decoy does.
A coach cat. I'm running a joint. Yeah, but as a VP, let the brain is VP finishing.
But the word is brunting.
We can get you in there, but definitely open to working with a lot of people. It's difficult. Now you want to keep it described for yourself. No, no, no, no, it's fine. It's fine. I just like have to find a new shishad every every every two every like month or so.
I'm joined the discord that I'm in. That was kind of like my sacred discord. So I have zero sheds from him. It's like my own little private space where you can make, but no, no, no, you're welcome to join scriber. Where I go, you
go. Exactly. That's that's what folks. I'm super super excited. Yeah. Yeah. I can see it. No. I love it. We'd love to have you there. Yes. And they I went for the first time I went to there. They have a happy hour where they check charts and do
different things and it was super super interesting like I actually went there to hide out from the basketball scores the other night but yeah I learned some things it was fun and dynamics played games and we watched that was fun too okay are you guys you
Yeah, he's trying out the new Fox Club game. Okay, so you're streaming on Discord and like people join and stuff. Yeah, we know a few times a week we have like a traders hang out and like an NFT hang out. So yeah, a bunch of the traders in our group will jump on their share charts about the market. People ask us questions when
answer them like anything. NFT one, we just sort of look at what's trending in the market, look at the different cycles where we think the money's flowing, let's talk about upcoming projects and stuff like that. The other night you were doing a comparison between, wasn't it the S&P 500 and Blue Trips?
Oh, yes, yeah, we're doing working out a ratio between the overall market volume versus the S S N P R 50 on sole standard. They've got a chart of like the top 50 blue chips in Salana and I was comparing the volume per day between the S N P R
50 and the overall volume. Working out that ratio and seeing how money flows from, you know, money generally flows to blue chips. So when the, when the blue chip volume makes up the majority of the overall volume, shortly after that little run, the money flows to the mid caps. So we'll look for those opportunities to jump into the mid caps and then draw enough a bunch of them up the other days. So it was good. We all made
bit of money. Yeah. The same thing with NFT or like people are going from bottom to top. Yeah. Yeah, there's a natural sort of progression of money flow. And it goes from risk off to, you know, your low risk assets, which is generally your blue chips. And it goes to your mid-risk
which is your mid caps, your project like Lily and Oogie. And then your your high risk point is when people start doing all the DJ and Mints and buying all the mean coins. And it's generally when you have the pop and we reset everything dies after that. We go back to the start. So this is a little mini cycles that happen every now and then. That's good to do. Try that.
Yeah, as long as you're aware, like it's just a matter of like the trading is very much a psychological game. It's basically if you know more about the psychology, the psychological side of trading than everybody else, then you can use that to your advantage. You just play everyone against each other. So I focus a lot
on social sentiment. So I'm a regular user of Twitter but I'm not so much regular poster of Twitter. I normally use Twitter just to engage or get a gauge of sentiment and see where everybody is on that cycle and you can sort of
get an idea of where to shift your money. Because if we're at that sort of phase where everyone's down bad, no one's buying anything, well, now I know the next phase is blue chip. So I start looking for those low entries onto the SMBs or OK bears and rascals and stuff like that, knowing that they're about to pop next. That's interesting.
Okay, so for example, okay, so like an example that I followed pretty closely was like asset dash like the mint like where everyone was saying like here gets way to expensive like the market condition is not like yeah, you can sold out quickly in those market conditions, etc. And then
And it's 10,000 units at 5.5 in 20 minutes. Like, do you think that's the sentiment? Did you trade it? Did you analyze it? Honestly, that one took me by surprise. And I was actually in a risk of period during that. I didn't know enough
about it. Honestly, because I wasn't really in a minting phase myself, I was sideline capital, so I wasn't really interested in anything. And then that popped up and I'm like, oh, you know, that might do well and saw the price. And I'm like, I don't know if the market is ready for that. And then I saw the sentiment on on socials. I'm like, wow, everyone's pretty bearish on#
And then yeah, I was surprised I woke up the next morning. I'm like holy shit as it does sold out and really fast I was so For anyone who entered it, I was sideline of that fucking almost missed it I was like walking back from the gym and like I still like see
60% 80% is what the fuck? That's when the pho mode kicks in and it's selling out like holy shit. It has massive impact on the secondary market sentiment and the first week/months of the project.
Yeah, for sure. And thank you, Ryan. Beautiful hoodie. Love, love me some. Vemu. Vemu. And in the in like the camera, I see that I'm a bit overexposed. I think it's because of the color of the hoodie. That's too bright.
Other that all the background the blue contrast. It's the contrast. Yeah, this makes up. Yeah, I'm I'm pumping. Yeah, you look like a tantrum. Thanks. I am. Yeah, wonderful. Yeah. Uh-huh. We're testing. We've got to be ready.
What? We iterating with like the contrast and stuff. Integrating with? Integrating with? You don't understand me in the photo. Oh yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We're iterating into what's going on. What are you talking about? No, the like the colors.
I find you work.
It's amazing. You're right. Okay. Fine.
in terms of your spaces.
Who's your favorite? Chris Kitty. Don't make me choose favorites. Not live. So we have Shilana side up posted by somebody amazing and then you have you have Shilan Grill.
which as the name suggests is you have several projects or is it just one project for episode? We did toy with doing multiple projects but I've been involved in a couple of those style spaces before and when you're working with a couple of projects at once that either ends up a really long
space so you just don't give everybody enough time to really get into it. So we decided to just do one project at a time. We like to ask decent questions and get right into the depths of it. And that's sort of like the grill part is we ask serious questions that people should be asking and not just the normal fluff, because it
A lot of people get projects on and it's just flowers and aos and those are really going anywhere you don't really learn anything about the project is just a bit of marketing. So yeah, we just do one project at a time that way you can really get into it. The war thing is when you're after question and the end-circum like I play to
every fricking project on Twitter. I like it's crazy. I'm gonna ask the city question. I want to know specific questions about your project. Not just the blanket. What are you gonna do? What's the benefits for holders? Can you have some spots soon available? Is that every week?
We can, I'd love to get you on, man. We actually, I was going to bring this up before because we were talking about the time zones and stuff. This is my biggest issue in Web 3 right now. I wish somebody would come out with the product here because I feel like this is the biggest pain point in Web 3 for me anyway in Australia.
time zone difference. Everyone's working on a different time zone. You'll say CT time, VLSA EST, I'll say AEST someone else's it's it's really hard to like I've got to look at the app and like oh what time's that oh that's 3am I fucked that so it's a real pain yes I want to see some
I'm going to create an NFT standard time where everyone just works on NFT standard time. I don't know what time that is, but that'll be really cool to see an NFT standard time created. The way that we can all network together and know exactly what time is when.
That face is saying hold my beer. Yeah. And if he standard time from the reason I pull that up is is we have a lot of trouble coordinating with people to get on the shielding grill like we've got an end
your your came to work within our phones but I don't have time zone my life yeah yeah we don't have time zones in our life well I mean I only do because I have IRL drop but I mean Solana side up is always seven to eight Eastern no matter where I am so
So when I was in LA, I was waking up at 3am and doing something. We used to odd times in Australia because a lot of the mince and stuff take place at 3am for us. We used to wake up earlier trying to catch it.
Yeah. So yeah, no, but the voters would love to be on Shillin Grill soon. Yeah, it's like it happened. Sure. It's cool. Um, just be good. I'm going to grill you that man. I'm going to ask you the hot questions. Yes. We'll ask. I have a question.
So you have Schilling-Grill, there's psychological investing with Alder on. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is off. Phil is#
It's sort of just a for the flow sort of thing, but yeah, it's a good one as well. And are there any other spaces? We've got a bunch that we want to do, but we're going to work up to it. We're going to just keep it easy for now because it does get
like on my end trying to get the everything we've got a lot on so it does get pretty tricky trying to coordinate it all but as we grow and get the systems in place then and have more get a host to take care of it then yeah we'll definitely do more we we plan on ideally we want to have something
happening almost every day, something, whatever it might be, you know, variation of shows. The quality shows, we don't want to just do the same thing over and over here. Yeah, I can't wait. And then of course, as soon as I get out of IRL again, as I only work
I guess we'll say seasonally in movie season. When I get a URL, I have ideas that I'm bringing to the table so I can't wait for that in there.
It's started. A quick question. Like, to schedule a show, is that better to have a slot that is always the same? Or you can like, you schedule your show whenever you have a time?
I personally like a show that's on at the same time every day. It works out pretty good for me when I take my kids to school, I normally get to catch the end of Easy Eats show. Was it Slana?
he does one with no club. No club. Yeah, no, it does, yeah, soul sniper and FT one. And then I used to catch like the Fox club. And there's a few, there's a few that work really well for me because I'm driving the kids to school and back so I get the catch
those spaces. So I do like those regular scheduled spaces because I know when they're going to be on it, I won't listen to, but I do often find myself sort of flicking through going, you know, who's on and what's on. Yeah. I found that just keeping to the same time.
I was the way to go. So even though I travel, I kept it to the same time because I thought people aren't going to, you know, especially for a while, their Twitter was acting up and people couldn't actually find spaces. So they would just look for people.
people who were in spaces, everybody knew if they looked for my name between this time and this time, that chances are the space they were clicking on was my space. So yeah, I just found that being consistent was the way to go. - What do you recommend with the guests?
Because if it's always at the same time then any guest is like somewhere else and then wait up earlier, stay up late or I don't have them on my show. I'm the same. If you can't make it, you can not make it. I'm going to be just fine. Yeah, no. I mean, you know, it's
I always planned to do different shows. I just haven't had the chance because Swanah's side up started as six days a week. I've now gone down to two days a week. Yeah, it was a grind. For a while there, it was a grind.
took it from 6 to 5 and then we went from 5 just before just in February to 2 and the 2 especially for where the market is at right now is perfect and especially because it's a Monday for the day. We start the week off right? Yeah.
I would say there's an argument to be made for it's a little bit like that occasionally with me but that's more like me just being tired if I'm honest.
moment but um but yeah it's it's people actually love it now because it's a great start to their week and end to their week and they look forward to it and you know they do easy or primus or whatever else is there in between so they get to mix it up. Okay I should think about that.
Yeah, so anyways enough about us more about scriber
It's a conversation, right? It's not just question, question, question. Yeah, exactly. Anyways, so, okay, so you have more spaces planned and then like what ideally in your mind like is your
you're like three to five year plan if you can share it with us if it's not. Yeah, I can definitely share a little bit. So that I guess the biggest piece that we're working on is the mobile phone app. I feel like it's a massive misopportunity for most people in this space that are building a web 3.
When there's stats out there showing that like I don't know what the stats are, but it's something like 70 or 80% of people are on their mobile phone all the time. So why is everything, you know, browser base when everyone's on their phone? So I really wanted to tackle that mobile space with building in
in Web 3. So our major piece that we're building is the phone app, which is, it's just a mobile version of our website basically. It's getting a bit of a revamp, but the idea is we've got some really creative ways there that we're going to be able to curate that news feed, but essentially it's like a news feed.
mobile phone app with things that you can subscribe to in terms of content or tags and stuff like that get push notifications. But the idea is to get that information delivered to you instead of having to go and find it yourself or spend hours scrolling on Twitter
There's not everybody has time to do that. Not everyone has the time to sit there on Twitter looking for the new projects. Imagine if you got a if you subscribe to say new projects and then you get a push notification to say hey there's a new project that we've just written an article on. We've just updated it into the database so you can read all about it, learn all about
it. There's a Twitter space, blah, blah, blah. You can just click the link or click the notification and then boom, there's all your information about the project, reviews, articles. You can learn all about it, how to get whitely, so all that sort of stuff. We want to sort of put that into people's fingertips, nice and easy, so they can sort of catch it on the go without having to sort of search for themselves.#
And yeah, we've got a few ideas there to gamify that and make a little bit more fun for the user. You know, interactions with social media and stuff like that, but it's basically just going to be a content delivery platform. You're going to get Twitter spaces or sorry.
podcasts, you know, from Spotify, sent directly to your phone, articles, project updates, chart and analysis, you know, crypto reports, everything, everything you think of, you just sort of curate your feed based on your interests and you'll get that information. But it's not
It's not aggregated. So like a lot of people in the space doing, I guess, maybe similar stuff to what we're doing is not aggregated in translation. So they're just like copying something from coin desk or pulling something from somebody else's coast on Twitter.
We're not copy pasting stuff or not aggregating information, everything that we do is created. So if you get a notification that there's new information, we've created it. We've written the article ourselves. It's not somebody else's pieces. Okay, so you become a major, but it's okay.
What was that sorry? That's a media right? Like that's a traditional media of like yeah I agree everything and then you make it better and yeah this is really cool. And what would be the business model here?
So, you know, the plan is to have millions of downloads. We want this to be the most downloadable app. If you're whether you're into crypto, dfi, nfp, it doesn't matter that you're going to get what you need on this app. So obviously, big goal there is to just make it a very high number download app.
In terms of monetization, we've got many ways to do that with in-app purchases, with things that we're going to be doing in the future. There's always things like affiliate programs and stuff we can explore, advertising, marketing is probably going to be a big piece. We're in the talks with a few different people at the moment.
And obviously we work pretty closely with links, which is the guys from Fatcats, which you guys had on last week, week before. So we're going to be doing a lot of marketing and stuff for them as well. So any projects that they're incubating and launching will be doing all the marketing sort of in-house.
articles project updates YouTube videos all that sort of stuff so sort of help get the exposure that they need there So yeah, we've got a few ways to monetize it. Yeah, just need to a 1 million dollar there Yeah, the million users. Yeah, it'll take time, but we're in it for the long run
We're not here to try and make a quick plan. We're trying to create something that is a very used thing in the space. Big brand that everyone knows. And hopefully gets a lot of value from. Like the idea is there's a couple of parts of it, not just to deliver information to people who are already in the space and what
updates, it also to help bring a lot of new people in. So we're focusing a lot on Web2 audience, like targeting Web2 audience to educate them on just even the basics about what is a blockchain and how do you set up a phantom wallet? How do you use this exchange? So it'll be
lot of really basic information to help onboard a lot of people and bring them into the web 3 space. And that sort of comes from the fact that I spent nearly four years in crypto, which I considered myself plugged into the system. And I still didn't really have a web 3 wallet because all I did was just play on centralized exchange. I was on BitMex and
and FTX just leverage trading and ever actually really got into using blockchain technology. So there's a lot of people out there who have been involved in crypto for a long time, whether it's buying shitcoins on coin spot or something or whether they're trading on Binance, but they don't actually, I would say they aren't plugged into
Web 3. They don't use Web 3 wallets. They don't really do anything in the DeFi space. They think NFTs are stupid. So I want to help those educate those people and say, "Hey, you've been buying Bitcoin and Ethereum and trading checkpoints on Binance for the last couple of years. How about you set up a wallet and I'll show you how to do some of this other stuff?"
and then just sort of bring people into that space. I think it's a pretty good space right now that people aren't really helping. Yeah, like the tricky part is like taking people off of like Twitter making like 10,000 views of like pictures on the beach with like, like,
because they took profit to a lot of quality content. I guess the value proposition is like you get what you want in a dump. You only see what you want to see. So if it's created well and then you provide high quality content, then there is a market for that.
Yeah, I believe so. I definitely believe there's a market for high quality content in this space. I feel like that's a massive bull drop from a lot of people. And you know, you do an amazing job. No, no, no, bro, that's why we also like to start it the channel. It's because like, yeah, like the difference of content between Web 2 and Web 3.
Crazy like the the the element to entry so low in webstree Eddie that's it I was about to say like the the level of investment you make in yourself like the fact that you've set up a studio and you got the cameras and the lights and you're taking the time to set up a channel and all that sort of stuff you're actually like investing in yourself to produce
this content, whereas like you said, the barrier to entry right now is set up a Twitter account and copy paste a bunch of shit for some engagement farming and call that content, or host the Twitter space of that content. And it's just like the level like the quality right now in Web 3 is absolutely shit.
I jump into a lot of spaces. I'm there for about three minutes. I might and I'm out. This is crap. I'm just looking shit. Yeah, I mean, I would say I was really surprised that people like gravitated to my space, but then when I look at everything that's out there, there's nothing
for like a first time web 2 to web 3 person. But it's not like you have to do this. My space is like, hey, come hang out and chat and we'll guide you through this. So like new people come and they don't feel intimidated necessarily because we're just talking
talking like half of the time we're talking about regular stuff and then we'll maybe roll into something about an NFT or a project or whatever. They'll be like talking about. You've also got some structure to your calls as well. That's the thing that's a little bit different. I feel like a lot of people just have a space with a bunch of mates just for the sake of
I don't know, do we? - I'm doing it. - I'm doing it. - I'm doing it. - I'm doing it. - I'm doing it. - I'm doing it. - I'm doing it. - I'm doing it. - I'm doing it. - I'm doing it. - I'm doing it. - I'm doing it. - I'm doing it. - I'm doing it. - I'm doing#
Yeah. Good. We're getting old. Yeah. Yeah. That could be it.
Yeah. Thank you for that. We in general in the universe of things.
We're getting hold. We are. We all are. Exactly. Yes. Yes. I'll be right up. Which is it's just like I mean it's again.
like there is because okay so yeah an existential crisis on the air no why why no like trying to develop a thought
I mean, like, okay, so in the world where like it's getting easier and easier to become a content creator, right? Like you go on TikTok, like you get hooked as soon as you create a fucking TikTok dance, right? On Twitter, as soon as you make a Twitter
Then you become a content creator because you put yourself out there. So everyone is becoming a content creator. So they then again like the the barrier to entry is getting load and then we have this quality or space that are like
for the best average or like sometimes crazy, not my jam. And then like I've already joined a space where you are like completely enlightened
by the host and the guest. I don't know, even like web two spaces. I saw some like grand card on space or like big guys, you know, like politician and stuff, grand space. I wanted to join those kind of spaces.
I mean, I want to learn Boburt one for about five minutes, the other night. Is that good? No. Okay. Absolutely not. And the Grand Cardone, yeah, it's not my vibe. Yeah, he's someone, but like, I mean, that.
for that level of celebrity and stuff like that, like even rappers or like ice cube or Snoop Dogg or any name or whatever. I'm doing something. That was entertaining. What I really get is
I don't know whether this is just me being old but when I think of content creation as you are, you've got value to bring, you've got education or information about it's topic and you're trying to share that with people and that to me would be content or maybe it's entertainment or something. You've got some sort of skill that you're sharing with people.
people and that is what I would consider content. But there's a lot of people who just want to be content creator for being content creator. Not because they have something to share, they don't have a ill or a background in something that they want to share with people. They strive to be a content creator on influencer as their profession.
with no context to it. And yeah, you find that what they really get hooked on is just posting shit to get views and followers and then talk about their followers every five minutes like it means something like you get a trophy. And I don't know, I just I'd see it as just very
very empty. What's the point? What's the point of getting 10,000 followers? What's the point of doing posts every day on Twitter if you've got nothing to actually share a value, you've got no business to promote. It's just literally talking shit all day for them brag about how many followers you've had.
It's quantity, not quality, which is I guess a part of the game that I don't play very well because I don't tweet unless I have something to tweet about. So my follower account is a reflection of
that. And the other day I like compared, you know, I did something that I don't often do, but I did that comparison thing. And I'm like, how does that person, who's not that interesting, have 18 K followers? And then I started scrolling down their timeline and they tweet every like five minutes. Yeah. Yeah. All day. Exactly.
the game. I can't remember who it was now. It's the game too. So the goal is to be successful because you want to achieve a certain goal with your project etc. So then you have to play the game of social network and stuff like that.
And this game has some rules and like post at walks and post at the talk etc. Again, it's kind of like the project like a race three with like we discussed with the metaget because
because they want to promote positivity, right? But the tricky part is like with positivity, you do less use than when you go against like a hot tech or like you go against people, you know? So it's going to be really interesting to see how it's
is going to unfold and develop because it's going against the game of social network itself. So it's how. But if it becomes successful, then it has to do something that's pretty great and make the world a better place.
Yeah. It might just be the demographic of your target audience as well. So like you just mentioned that right now in this web 3 space you're likely to get more engagement from a negative post talking about some controversial topics in this space as opposed to actually providing value.
Does that mean what you're doing is wrong? What does it mean? The current audience is up to shit. Whereas if you did that same sort of content to a web to audience, that probably appreciated a lot more, which is sort of something that I've realized and why we're sort of taking a different approach.
approach rather than trying to market products or engage so much with the current plugged in Web 3 people who are just looking for negativity and fit to shell or whatever. We're targeting a different demographic that might actually be interested in what we've got to say and we'll consume the content because they want to learn
And they want to move forward in this space. Yeah. No, no, no. That changes in the snow point us marketing towards that. Yeah. And that's what I see, like, you know, and like the YouTube dashboard, like I thought the channel, like the demographic right now, the people who are watching us is like between like 25 and 35. It's perfect. That's the basicly the audience because it's basically a whole
we are. So we talk to the people that looks like us and do the same level in life, et cetera, et cetera. And that's perfect, right? Because then we can connect with the audience and the people that consume the content. Yes, you people, what you would say.
And like for example, I know the example is like on the channel like I don't know if you saw like the Sunnett and stuff like it's really like artistic and like looks like you know like the goal was for the
the same name of those like the channel was to build like an NFT art kind of feel like you know, like it could be a PSP and it could be like artistic vibe, but it doesn't really follow the YouTube guidelines, not guidelines, but like a way of doing a thumbnail because you know you have to do faces and shit like that.
It's more views, but it's a daily, daily, daily, daily, it shows. It's a, it's a choice that we've made to look to make the channel look, like, like, a bit better and like artistic in a way. Is that a good decision in the term of like, we sacrificing engagement and views?
But does some that looks good? No, because you're sacrificing those numbers for quality though. And sometimes quality over quantity, like you mentioned before, you might get, let's say on a video, you might get half as many views if you don't post one of those typical thumbnails.
But the views you do get are probably people who are going to sit through and watch the entire video. Now, if you did a silly, stupid thumbnail, you might get twice as many views, but you've seen the stats itself. How often do people drop off after the first five minutes? Because they're the people you're attracting with those thumbnails. They type of have a short attention span.
don't give them a buzz in that first five minutes, they're looking at the next video. It's the same thing with Twitter, like with Post. If you type interesting information on a tweet, you might not get as many views, but the people who do view content are probably reading all your content. If you post a silly picture
and a quick engagement farming scene. You're going to get shit loads of views, but they're all mindless views and people are just flicking through and yeah, the next thing. So sometimes it's better to curate higher quality, get less views, but you're actually getting more value from it in my opinion. But yeah, is that the way also like to build your audience
to like you have you know in a best role like you have to do both like you have to have post that make like one million views and then you have to provide values because then these valuable post or so you buy more people like you know and it's kind of tricky something like yeah you want to launch an NFT collection yeah exactly
