Sounds cool, homie. Just because we think of treasure, not in terms of gold and silver, doesn't mean that
we don't have our wealth.
Some say we have lost it, but no in a world gone mad, insanity's no real sign of health.
So drop your bags and drop your beers. Lift your voice and voice your cheers.
Hoist your mug and give some hugs. Shout your mantra, sing your prayers.
Look around, we're all right here. It just proves we're not all there.
We may not have it all together, but together we can have it all.
We may not have it all together, but together we can have it all. I don't know. Oh! What's up, man? What's up, man? What's up, man? What's up, man?

We may not have it all together, but together we can have it all.
We may not have it all together, but together we can have it all. Revolution without dancing is a revolution not worth having.
Yeah, thank you for listening.
There's definitely something going on.
I can't get any of my accounts on my PC to be able to be brought up on stage or join the room.
Like, I'm having other accounts that I have, like, access to.
I'm trying to move them into listening on the space,
and it won't let it join.
I don't know if it's a PC issue,
but I can't get accounts in here.
Maybe X is kind of cutting down on that
based on IP and stuff.
Well, the PCs are on a completely separate VLAN.
Okay, totally not that.
I'm actually on my phone.
Yeah.
So it's not that then,
obviously.
Very interesting.
Yeah,
that is wild.
Something really weird is going on with X,
you guys,
right now.
I was in a space this morning that got rugged like four times in a row.
So they had to,
they just cut the space.
Okay. Well, that's fun. I don't, dude, whatever, I got rugged like four times in a row. So they had to, they just cut the space. Okay.
Well, that's fun.
I don't, dude, whatever.
I said it before everyone else is in here, y'all.
But Elon, come on, bro.
You messing up X's on the biggest days of the week when we're trying to do shit out here and we're trying to cook.
This is crazy.
Because, like, yeah, I'm having issues with, you know, I'm on 5G on my phone. And I am having intermittent issues, I'm having issues with you know I'm on 5g on my phone and I am having intermittent
issues I'm noticing but I'm also noticing on pc that if I log into another account like an actual
account non-delegated I still can't join the space well one of them did it's very interesting y'all
but we're gonna roll with it whoever's in here today, we're just going to let it roll.
We don't keep going.
I'm going to let me see if this Solana Deads account will actually join this time.
I tried.
So what started it all was I joined the Solana Deads to the space here.
And then I tried to give it co-host.
And it like the whole X like Explorer started getting all wonky and I couldn't do anything.
Let me see if it lets it in here.
Yeah, see, it won't even let the salon of deads account join the space i'm gonna have to start doing spaces from the corridor soon
dude facts oh there's the salon of deads account maybe it says it's in here there it is all right
i just at least want it in the room um dope well big man thanks for starting us
off with some music um apparently there are some intermittent space issues going on with x
um probably has something to do with our encrypted chats that we didn't ask for but are there now and
that seem to be causing other issues um but yeah no you know uh today i wanted to be a little bit more focused uh around just uh
gpc whoever wanted to chat um and talk and also salon beds um we have the launch coming up on
friday so we're super excited about that we've already got the mint page ready um you can check
your wallets on there and everything so we're super excited that's that's
pretty much the um like any main alpha i have today if you guys have looked at charts it's
absolutely sideways and kind of down trending and it we're at a resistance zone on that side where
we need to either break down below 100 again or we're gonna keep going up so we just kind of got
a on the ta side of stuff um it's probably going to be more of a choppy couple days here so we ain't got to worry about too much there and uh but yeah
um you know with everyone everyone that's on stage or who wants to come up it's an open floor today
i just want us to be able to chat and chill um and we'll be i'll post up the uh mint page here
or the mint date for the salon of deads in case anyone hasn't seen it
yet or you haven't checked out the website or the um the website's sick y'all uh rogue put in some
love into that and it's felt so i'm really enjoying uh the website there's also an easter
egg hunt going on if you guys didn't know on the salon of deads website there's a hidden image and
if you find the hidden image, it starts a riddle.
And then you have to solve the riddles.
It's very difficult.
Intern's a pain in my butt.
He won't give me any hints either.
So I'm letting you all handle it.
But it's been pretty fun having that.
Sorry to cut you off.
What's the website?
I want to go check it out right now.
And I want to find it.
Ooh, SolanaDeads.com.
Oh, bet.
And I will say that the image is hidden in one of the rectangles of information.
So I technically don't need a hint.
Actually, there's a real easy way to figure it out.
I wonder if Justin's going to beat me to it or not.
But I'm going to go check it out right now.
And then when you find that, then you got to start the riddles so have fun yeah um but yeah so excited
about that it's gonna be an awesome weekend um for those of you guys that haven't heard yet
we are launching at 10 a.m eastern time on Friday if you're PST like me, which whoopsies, I put the wrong time this morning
because I said EST for my space.
But it's actually going to be at 7 a.m. PST also on Friday.
So whether you're EST, PST, I will have a space that morning on Friday
so that we can do just kind of hang out for the opening of the
mint, get the deads fam that want to be in here for the start of everything. And I think it'll
be a fun little space. We'll probably keep it to an hour, two hour max on that one. And then I also
want to do a mint party on Saturday for anyone that's minting that's inside the GPC. So I think it would be kind of fun to figure out a little mint party
that, you know, I love doing mint parties,
but I would like to do mint parties
where maybe we have a couple of projects
or multiple, especially all in the GPC.
And then when we do a mint party,
it's just kind of everyone minting anything
and then posting that in the comments.
I haven't seen it done too much.
And because we do a lot of not same PFP stuff,
I think it could be fun to just have, you know,
just people minting a few of our,
a couple of our projects on a day
and just have a soup, like a mega party almost.
Maybe it'll build into something like that.
But yeah, I think that could be cool.
So I want to do something Saturday for Salon of Deads
and whoever else is minting that would want to hop up there.
Yeah, I think that'll be fun.
So it's going to be a busy weekend, but it's going to be a fun weekend.
I'm super excited.
And yeah, so if anyone has any questions of anything, you're welcome to ask at any time today.
And yeah, if anyone else wants to hop up here, please do.
And Dragon Punks, big man. You know, Dragon Punks, thanks for letting me know about the thing.
The issues with X or spaces.
I appreciate you.
How's Dragon Punks feeling today?
I mean, he might have taken a break.
It's okay.
I didn't know if he was even there.
I know he was just letting me know.
Big man, how you doing?
How you feel?
How's Socks feeling?
How's Socks boss?
Oh, Socks boss is doing pretty good.
Like, I mean, I can't speak for him personally.
Like, you know what I mean?
I think he's doing fine, but he's been cooking, bro.
He's got some new stuff.
We're going to be, we'll probably be talking about it soon.
I don't want to say nothing to you yet because we literally just had the conversation today he just showed me the
the tools and stuff today but it's pretty sweet i'm excited y'all gonna get some some stuff coming
soon baby i don't know when exactly you know and i've been saying soon forever now but soon is soon
and soon is soon um no dude i uh i'm chilling we did the um i got my first collection out there from the d bros
class that was cool big man's homage you know we're gonna do that again we're gonna do it a
little bit more organized we're gonna reach out to the collaborators uh to the communities that
i want to engage with right in the gpc pretty Right. And get some actual works for that project or like,
you know, really, really spruce it up a little, maybe send my Higgs, Higgs field AI back out to
them so that they can add stuff that they want to it or whatever. Like we'll, we'll really do that
one out. But right now socks and I are actually working on a collection for big man's portal.
He's doing the art aspect. I'm kind of organizing the bounties you know i
told you about sad cookies so you know a little bit about that but we're not doing sad cookies
we're doing something else um i'm gonna i'll make a post about it probably tomorrow i did on the
token gated page for the website you can go take a peek and you can just see it's a little sneak
peek of what the next collection is going to be. I changed one of the images that's over there.
And I'm going to drop the rules for it as well.
So you guys can kind of see how it's going out.
But basically, what I can say is that we're giving away more than 20% of the revenue that comes to us from it.
And it's going to be divided amongst like 32, possibly a little bit more of those winners.
And it's going to be done up kind of like poker style where like, you know, the top tier gets XM on and each tier kind of has their own little breakdown for it.
And it's all going to be transparent. I'm going to throw it up on a spreadsheet so everybody can see what's going on with that.
But right now I'm over here on the Salon of Dad's website and I am looking for the hidden image.
I'm over here on the Solana Dad's website, and I am looking for the hidden image.
And I said it's going to be easy, but it's going to take a little bit longer.
I still have to look at some stuff.
But there is a nifty little, when you right-click, you can do some pretty nifty things over there on a web browser.
So you can look for nifty stuff stuff see how they built some things and
where some stuff might be it's kind of cool dude i like it yeah i i thought the when intern told us
that there was something new on the website and we were like what and then yeah it was an easter
got to figure it out though and that was it and i was like oh shit but then started
looking at the website like you said there's tools there's ways to find i found it i started i started
the the questionnaire but i'm just not i'm not good at riddles y'all i'm so bad so bad at guessing
stuff and her figuring out a riddle i just sit there keep saying the same riddle over and over again. But yeah.
Oh, Quack Life's up here.
What?
What up, Quack Life?
Quack, Quack.
How you doing, Estona?
How you doing, Brigman?
We got Dragon Punks up here.
How's everybody?
We're vibing.
I heard that the spaces have been giving some issues this morning, but it looks like we're trucking through because, you know,
this room's
starting to fill up. So I guess it's not, they're not that bad today. Yeah. You know, we were, uh,
we had our space last night and I was grateful because my, you know, I don't know what happens,
but I can't see, uh, people's emojis. Like I can see that people react react but I can't see the emoji I also can't get co-hosts
to come up or um like except when people request me to speak I tried like deleting the app and
updating the app and I don't know maybe I gotta check my settings somewhere or something
but I'm I'm stuck yeah it's I think think they're updating stuff and the PCs acting wonky for me
too. And I know the PCs on like a completely different setup, obviously, and it's Windows
and it's it's on a hard line, but it's still doing its weird things today. So I was like,
I don't know what's going on. But, you know, like I said, you can't stop our momentum because we're
picking up steam here. Yeah, not at all. Dude, last night said, you can't stop our momentum because we're picking up steam here.
Yeah, not at all. Dude, last night was so great.
We changed our mint party day from Sunday to Tuesday nights and kind of late.
So it's 9 p.m. for EDT. And I it was crazy.
We had like 170 people show up and people came through the telegram.
I mean, it was just yeah, it was really great to see that kind of developing and expanding. So we're stoked on that. And everybody was really excited to hear about all the information that you brought back, Crypto Stoner from Bitcoin Conference and, and yeah, just, you know, yeah, great, great stories. So we were stoked to get to share some of that.
Yeah, great, great stories.
So we were stoked to get to share some of that.
I have a Google Drive for y'all.
And now I'm going to send you guys some content.
And I'm excited to see what you guys might want to do with that or have edits.
Obviously, it wasn't like I was just walking around videoing.
But I do think I took enough stuff from the convention.
I think you guys will also enjoy it.
And it'll be fun to,
to get some, some content for it. You know what I'm saying? Cause it's really cool. The IRL stuff
is almost slept on in my opinion. And, you know, I was so thankful to Quack Life for allowing me
to be able to represent them at Bitcoin conference y'all. Cause it, you know, that it's so much
different just communicating with people
meeting people in real life uh and having like face-to-face conversations when you're meeting
with people and so it's so cool so i'm excited for you guys to uh also um you know see what else
what else there was while we were there because i i took a couple of walkthroughs
yeah i'm excited i'll put some quackers in those pictures uh and get them out on
you gotta have the uh if you guys can definitely do photo bombs of ducks in the stuff I send you
that would be super fun yeah I'll do my best um yeah dude sleeping on the IRL it's super real and
it's something that like I think I've told you guys maybe or some of you about it, but I'm just getting more jazz because I'm actually starting it tomorrow.
About going into our local communities, wherever it is that we live and trying to, you know, start like crypto clubs, little spaces of like, hey, guys, just opening the door.
Here's like a little flyer about, you know, if you want to learn about crypto, you're interested.
like a little flyer about, you know, if you want to learn about crypto, you're interested in,
you know, probably a lot of the talk will be Bitcoin and, you know, major stables like that.
And just trying to get people open to the idea, get people a wallet, you know, get them onboarded
and just to, you know, start to broaden the idea that, you know, crypto is not this scary,
scammy place. Like, I mean, some areas are, you know, but just like cities, right? Everywhere you go, there are scary, scammy places that you don't
want to be at in certain times of day, you know? So it's no different and we just need to be
educated. And so I think that's a huge thing that people are missing is trying to take this
beautiful community that's being created and web three and crypto Twitter and bringing that
into our individual spaces so that then maybe we can bring some of those people into this online
community. And so just really excited about, you know, the potential there. We'll see. I feel like,
you know, three years ago, it was like, or four years ago, five years ago, when I got into crypto,
it was like or four years ago five years ago when I got into crypto I didn't tell anybody you know
like it was like only if somebody else brought up crypto it was so hush hush and if you said
anything like people will just lose their shit and now it's just all over the mainstream news
like my father-in-law's like hey so like should I? You know, my parents invested in our quack project.
Like, they're like, oh, wow, you know, this, I see it on the news.
Like all this stuff is different, you know,
and five years ago I was an idiot for putting money into crypto.
And so it's just cool to see that shift.
And so I'm really hoping that that we'll see, you know, tomorrow.
I'll report back with information, see what the sentiment see, you know, tomorrow I'll report back with information, see what the
sentiment is, you know, out there in the real world and, and see what people are, you know,
just, just really thinking. So I'm excited to, to kind of tap into that, that tomorrow.
Yeah, that's, that's, that it's going to be really cool to have, you know, these the growth of well, I guess the onboarding of all
these new people, right? Because a lot of us have been here, we have good intention. We, you know,
as the GPC, on top of that, you know, a lot of us look out for each other. So it's going to be cool
as we do see the retail or a lot of other investors, new investors learning about this and trying to
figure everything out because we're going to be here to hopefully, you know, help onboard and
guide as many people as we can. And I'm, you know, I'm just super excited that you guys are also
starting to look at that or, you know, that other people are looking at these um let's get into irl let's
meet up uh you know it was really cool meeting quiet network and lost peanut um and kly boss
uh you know they're they were a lot of fun but they've done this before so you know they they
was really cool to see them uh kind of in their element enjoying what they were doing and and kind of just hanging out around their vibe for a
bit each day. And, you know, it just really showed how important it was. And then, like I said, the
people that don't know, like you said, your parents asking, should we get this Bitcoin?
You know, what is it? You know, everyone's starting to ask. In the past, it's been different.
When people have asked in the past to whether they should buy Bitcoin, it's almost a sell time, right? It's almost been like, oof, we're at the top, grandma's asking about Bitcoin. and the Bitcoin as a reserve for the global institutions and countries,
we're actually starting to see that the people that are asking now are not our exit liquidity.
This is like mass adoption attention, in my opinion,
where it seems like everyone that's asking now is actually going to start buying,
holding, and people realizing that they need to stack this stuff.
And that'll be the start of our mass adoption inflow of fiat. Yes, dude. Yes. And I think that we as an especially
with the GPC and something that I would just, you know, try to encourage others to do would be to
try to get out there and bring these people on because, you know, a lot of generations
aren't really cool or not, I don't want to say cool, but keen to like, oh, I need to know how
to do something. I'm going to go on YouTube and learn about it. Or I'm going to ask Chachi PT.
Like they come from a different time, you know, and so they need some assistance.
And somebody that they know or somebody that they can talk to
is just going to go much further than like, you know, putting together, not saying that like a
YouTube video isn't helpful, but just getting that extra IRL aspect, I think it'd be really
beneficial to a lot of people. I think it could even potentially open up jobs for people who are
like, hey, you know, come to this free workshop. And if you want more one
on one help, I offer, you know, $25 an hour rate to, you know, help you get onboarded or to do all
these, you know, extra steps or to dive in deeper with how to, you know, address what that person
specifically wants. And so yeah, I just highly encourage it. We'll see if I feel the same way
after I go out tomorrow and do it.
But I'm actually really much, much more hopeful than like, like you said, than maybe years
past.
So heck yeah, man.
I love it.
Big man, I see your hand up and we were talking, I know we're talking about some fire.
Yo, absolutely, dude.
So I absolutely love it, Quack Life.
I was talking about trying to do something similar to it.
I have a rural town that I live in.
It's a very small niche thing.
And I've been slowly talking to people in the town about these things.
But the way that I do it, I do.
I want to get a club going.
That's a great idea.
I love that.
I'm going to adopt that idea and do it in big man's way over here.
But I want to, like, for example, the taco shop.
I talk about this one all the time.
They have a POS system that charges you as a consumer $4 extra, you know what I mean?
Which is outrageous in my opinion, but I don't gripe to the taco shop about it because I want
to go support that place still anyway.
It just so happens that I have to support a POS, you know, literally a piece of shit
system.
And like, it's a point of sale system as well
that takes that four dollars away from me um i like soft chill it to them kind of like have
you guys thought about changing your pos system so that you don't have to deal with that and
you know just changing some things around or like talking to the cashier being like hey do you guys
accept solana and them being like you know you can kind of gauge like them being like what's that and then like you can either have a small conversation about it or you
can be like oh it's okay i'll just use my apple pay or whatever and you know but bringing that
stuff um to the forefront and then i like the idea of bringing it to a club and then like you know
teaching a group of people kind of like you um a small btc conference almost right or like leading the
way with it and then if people decide they're interested in it like you said they can come to
you for more advice and what i've noticed especially hearing from crypto stoner about
the bitcoin conference is that all of us everybody who's in this space every day who even knows what
a fucking wallet is you like have so much more experience and knowledge compared to
people who don't understand any of that stuff like don't know what crypto crypto left from right they
know chart go up chart go down news just start talk about it must be good like you know that
that's kind of what they see and um yeah i know for sure and i do have a funny segue after this
but i'll definitely let you go before i do that. I got a question for levels.
know of um like a you know like square or clover or some major company that does allow crypto to
be accepted like if they turn on some type of setting or is there another system that would
work with that system in a way that it wouldn't be like hey you want to accept crypto you have
to completely change everything you're doing do you know of systems like that so off the top of
my head i can't really think of uh you'd have to kind of i like that? So off the top of my head, I can't really think
of, uh, you'd have to kind of, I think you'd have to build one of the systems, but Stripe
does allow you to be able to accept payments via Solana pay. And I believe in like a few
different other ways. Um, but in order to get the actual upfront system, I think you'd have to
have like two separate card readers, right? Like, I don't think there's a way to conjoin the two
necessarily. And I could be totally wrong about this D
bros would probably know more about this particular topic than I do myself but I
can see the technology there and I just I know it's just a matter of time and
finding those right connections and plug in those people together like and
making sure that the the IRL business wants to actually adopt that thing.
And if a business was interested in,
and like seriously interested, not just kind of the idea thought,
you know, really wanted to adopt that technology.
There's a will, there's a way type of vibe.
And I see Justin's coming up here right now too.
So he might have a better answer for you than myself.
Well, I appreciate it, big man.
Yeah, of course, of course.
And I know the tech is there.
I just don't have the words to necessarily tell you how it could be done.
What up, Justin?
Oh, that's valid too, Queen.
I saw that. She also mentioned you can build wallet connections as well. And, you know, that's something fairly simple too. We added account abstraction to our website.
Like you can log into Big Man's portal using an email address instead.
Like you don't have to use a wallet address. It'll create the wallet address for you tied to that email address right there.
for you tied to that email address right there and then you could transfer funds to that or
And then you could transfer funds to that.
i believe there's even the on-ramp right there with the re-own app kit itself so
there there are definitely some ways to be able to
yeah i do i do have if justin isn't able to talk at the moment or like maybe he was just coming up still, it was lagging.
My car is just fighting my Bluetooth.
Oh, we're right.
So that's why we, so that was, that's what we're working on raising funds for.
Just waiting for our, not going to be like sad about it or anything but waiting for our
attorneys to finish up paperwork for us for our seed funding but it was a part of it's
a part of what we built for the base batch bill too so block pay our pay block is essentially it's totally doable it's just it's it's what's really sad is that these big
companies they have the capabilities they have the devs they have the leverage they have the funds
they have the money but the fact that they just okay uh it all goes back to like lobbying and
politics right i mean everything, everything, unfortunately,
everything is corrupt in this world,
no matter what it is.
And so they follow a trend
so that they stay in good faith or good favor.
But it's 100% doable.
I mean, imagine a square terminal,
exactly the same, but the best of both worlds.
You know, and what we
tried to prove with that for our submission to base base batch builds is
exactly that showing that how easy it would be to just like even start because
we all know that before terminals like physically existed in certain things
that there was there was web browsers to make to make payments via online
you know elon musk first launched to a paypal and then after paypal is like a domino effect
um so if we look at we could take that you know that that terminal you can have the nfc reader
it can have the thermal printers everything there touch screen they can accept you know regular
credit card payments they can accept the stable coin payments and
imagine being like a little mom-and-pah shop to where you just want to take a
verified app so imagine be like a Debro terminal and it's the best of both
worlds and they want to offer some kind of reward system within their small
business they can push one of the apps that we constantly push to the
stores that'll update their terminals because they're connected to the network and they can
just say oh let's add this reward system bam add it to their terminal and then now offer those
reward systems for that time or that year or that month or whatever the holiday may be
totally totally doable it's just a matter of i think one of the things that i was just a little bit getting a
little bit upset about and a little bit depressed is like you guys express not the wrong word but
uh i'm sorry that i'm not not the right word but it's it's we see all this money i don't know
projects that are raising tons of money that really do nothing and then projects that
nothing and then projects that have a hard time getting the money so it'd be really nice if we can
shift that narrative and give fun to somebody who's going to build products that will actually
help things in the world and solve problems um everybody's just all trying to i say it all the
time is chasing this hype and i've been seeing it from like base and others and stuff too that i'm
like how do we not have recognition or anything by them and look what we've done i can list off about 40 different
things in the past year that we have done even brought four irl companies on chain but yet they
share like an nft project or they're praising this nft project and all these other things
and that's okay it's absolutely okay but i but the the narrative needs to change
so it's not about just like the world accepting crypto and being more open just because we see it
on the news now we need to we need to shift the way people are thinking and we need to have them
start investing and believing in like real tech, real products, real solutions, which will ultimately shift the entire ecosystem of the way people buy, sell, process or even use crypto.
Yeah, Justin, I feel I'm really hopeful because that narrative really does need to shift
and i'm really hopeful that bringing on more you know normies or more people from irl will really
help shift that narrative because they're not you know they're gonna they'll probably buy the hype
for a second go get rugged and then be like oh shit maybe i you know like maybe it's just more like stocks and
it's really going to depend on a lot how the media mass media continues to portray it if
they're pushing people into the casino type style which i don't think that they probably will be
and so i think we will or i'm hopeful that we will see uh onboarding of you know people interested
in more investment style.
Yeah, because the whole regulation on stablecoin, I'm 100% okay with.
But here's the... And I've read through it and we're working with our attorneys.
And it's a little crazy, right?
It's a money game.
It's still a money game, no matter what you look at it.
Oh, that's super bullish, D-Bro.
Got a sign off from
the US government they're they're an official they're an official stable coin recognized by
the government and accepted excellent fantastic but that cost us 15 to 18 thousand dollars to
submit a piece of paper you know I'm saying so it's like it's a little crazy but they say oh
well if you're gonna represent our dollar okay, my argument back to that was, you know, to my attorney was, okay, well, let's look at it this way.
What's the difference if I go to, okay, so if I go to Coinbase and I swap my ETH for that stable coin, how is that not the same thing?
It's still US dollars that I took to ETH and ETH to USDC.
still US dollars that I took to ETH and ETH to USDC. So does ETH have to go? And now,
you know, even though they're not stable, do they have to have some kind of approval or submittal or
a sign off or a stamp? You know, so the way that they are kind of, I think that the government
needs to be more knowledgeable as well. But we know that from history and everything that we
have, and I'm super bullish about everything that's happening under this presidency, 100%.
We are in history. We're lucky to be here and involved with it and alive for this time that it's happening.
But I think that they need to be more knowledgeable on the way that money is shifted inside of DeFi as well, or just DeFi in general.
that money is shifted inside of the DeFi as well, or just DeFi in general, because again,
you know, you still swap USD from your bank account to buy ETH. So what's the difference
if you swap it to a stable coin? Yeah, real, real quick. You mentioned,
you know, the swapping right there and stuff. And it kind of made me think too, like I brought
this point up a little while ago, but if you're going to cash out, right, most of the time it's a CEX you
have to cash out through in order to go to your bank account. So before you do that, I recommend
trading out your native currencies for that stable currency to cash out, right? Or like using a third
party that allows you to actually spend the crypto itself. Most of those are all CEXs though. So if you send it to the DeFi sector first, at least it's going into the decentralized agenda, so to say, right? It's going
towards the people. It's going back towards, yeah, I mean, I guess sometimes it's an organization,
but normally it just goes back to those pools. So everybody's getting a fair price on it and a
fair play instead of the CEX is now holding on to all the native currencies and
basically getting to dictate the price back out to us.
You know what I mean?
And like, it's crazy.
And that's just my personal perspective on it, right?
Y'all do you.
But this pinnacle point that we're in, man, it is just that.
It is very pinnacle that we move forward on a good foot, pressing the technologies to IRL use cases and really changing not just the narrative, but the way everybody and that we all think, feel and use cryptocurrency.
I think it's totally doable to have an on-chain.
I think it's totally doable to have an on-chain.
Essentially what we're doing for Dragon Punks right now.
Essentially what we're doing for DragonPunks right now,
you know, we can have stables on-chain that are 100% backed on-chain.
Like, that's it, just in general.
I mean, I think even USDT has proven that.
But if we look at USDT and we look at USDC,
they still have a connection to the centralized world.
And the centralized world being,
Coinbase goes along and says, hey, USDT, USDC, we need $5 million worth of your tokens.
They're going to wire them, the USD to their bank account. Those companies are going to mint them into existence and then deliver it to them. Now, we just have to depend on good faith
that that money is always there in that account and never being spent. That's dollar for
a dollar. Okay. Well, if we look at the way banking systems work right now and the banks,
they may have that in a bank account, but if all of us know how the centralized system works right
now, it's a little bit of a scam, right? If you go and get a loan from a bank for $100,000,
they loan you money they don't even have which how is that not fraud or illegal right so
if you go and you deposit five thousand dollars into your bank account it's just a digital number
that you have and they take that five thousand dollars and they loan that out to other people
some dude comes in his thousand dollar payday advance loan where do you think that thousand
bucks came from it's like a Ponzi scheme.
They take it from Peter to PayPal. And so realistically, is that truly backed?
We just got to trust that it is. And on-chain, what they were doing with DragonPunks is that it's backed by the people that believe in the system you're gonna have to swap
an exact one of one for it um and it'll continue to grow uh and leverage other assets and utilities
um but yeah it's i think that if we just if like big companies all right so big companies like
coinbase and and others out there that have tons of money i would like to see them do a little bit better
things with those money with that money like okay if i had the money they have i'll tell you what
man we'd have our own legal group we'd be out there pushing for new laws we'd be out there
making a scene you know making ourselves notice making ourselves heard and we would be pumping
out tech like i don't know.
I don't even know how Coinbase doesn't even have their own POS system.
Like, it's crazy.
Their reserves are absolutely ridiculous.
Like, they are a powerhouse.
So it would be really nice to see them do a little bit more
of a forefront inside of this sector.
There's so much alpha being shared up here today y'all i hope you guys i hope you guys realize
there's a lot of alpha that we need because we need to really push this like we in the real
world stuff it goes back to what quack and i were saying in the beginning and the pos stuff that
we're talking about and just the systems themselves and people adopting this,
we need to find one of the things that Quack and I were talking about was finding real world investors like that. That might not even be necessarily crypto based, but people that have
things that like that want to invest into Web3, something like these ecosystems and start to
adopt things differently, because a part of the crypto
change and the Web3 change is that we need to also be able to adapt and change our real world
things that we're using or the systems that we use now, all the POS systems that we're currently
using. First of all, I've been in restaurants many times in my life working wise, and they're
all terrible. So like, and they're just a pain in the butt to use the way that they were anyways,
everyone always hates the POS that they have at their work and all of these things and the at
their systems. So I think that with a lot of the web three stuff, like you said, Justin, you know,
sometimes it's frustrating when we're not seeing certain things moving or adapting, evolving. But I do think that there is going to be in this the way that it's moving and
mass adoption is coming our way or that we're getting pushes that we are going to see people
start to be willing to invest into this world or change their systems or try new things.
to invest into this world or change their systems or try new things.
But it's going to take some of us along with the time of adoption as things are changing here.
And I do.
I'm hopeful in the sense that I think we are going to have the right people or there's going to be companies like you guys that as this starts to kind of flip the switch there,
that that switch is going to be to you guys or to these new systems and
things will start to, you know, it's always,
it's always rockier before it's better. You know,
I was kind of thinking that this morning,
the space was giving me so many problems when I started the accounts weren't
letting me up. I've been trying to get the Solana deads up here
this whole time, you know, just all of these things. And finally, you know, I was like,
I'm hopeful on this while we while you guys have been talking. And just in that little tiny moment
of my own life, I was able to remember like, okay, all of these things that are going wrong right now,
like I can I can either adjust, adapt, fix this. And I did. I actually uninstalled my browser while we were
like talking. And I ended up in reinstalling the browser because the cache clearing and history
did not fix it. And for some reason, reinstalling the browser real quick fixed it. And instead of
me getting too, too upset and frustrated, even though I was feeling it internally.
It's just those moments, just like with what's happening, just that tiny little
example of my own life and day that, you know, it's the same thing. It's a bigger growing pain
because it's a world thing. But I'm very hopeful and I'm very confident in the people I'm seeing
or the people I work with and you guys here in the space and everyone in these communities.
I think that the time is about to come where it's going to flip, where switches need to be made. Businesses that don't make the switches or don't try these new
things and get into these new systems are going to fall behind. And the people that do come to us
and find the right people and build into the newer ecosystem, those companies are going to thrive
and take off. So it is going to be frustrating in some senses because some people won't see it
and that business will disappear and it could be a big business.
It could be a big business that doesn't trust in Bitcoin and falls off
because it never switched their system.
So that unfortunately will happen, too.
But I know that there's going to be a lot of companies that see this future
and jump forward into new tech.
I'm done with my soapbox. Oh, you can go big man.
My bad. Real quick. Mind you that I am on that quest right now. So before you answer this out loud, be careful. This is the question I had for levels. What is the specific long term goal of
their community driven ecosystem that integrates
their nft collection with future expansions like a play to earn game question mark bro
how do i answer that that's my riddle
yo we're i told y'all there's riddles on that page. It is not easy, but there's people that have gotten past that one.
I did find the image, though, and actually, believe it or not,
doing my little trick that I was doing was not how I found it.
I mean, it did kind of help me because it shrunk my screen down a little bit.
You know what I mean?
But I was going through, and as I was highlighting stuff with that little tool over there,
I was like, oh, wait a second.
I saw it.
So, I mean, it kind of helped, but not to the degree I thought. I thought I was going to get
to look at the actual CSS over there and check it out and see what was going on. But that's not
how I found it. Yeah. Intern, sneaky, sneaky. Quack life. Go ahead. I know we were talking
about the soapbox I had. So I think you had raised your hand towards
the end if you want to add on. Yeah, you know, it just something that you said sparked something
for me to ask Justin, actually. Are you open to helping IRL businesses figure out how to take
payments? Because I do have some friends here. I mean, it's a small rural area also,
but we're planning to kind of build up a little club here and then take it up north where there's
a college town, a Cal State college town, about an hour from me. And so we'd be going up there to
try to also engage. And so, you know, I don't know what the return would be, but I just was curious if you were open to assisting IRL businesses, setting up payments and such.
Absolutely. A hundred percent. I mean, that's what we're mainly about is IRL. I mean, this
year alone, you know, we, we brought the SMSX, The Walking Dead and Producers Without Borders
from Netflix on chain and did the same thing. We're working with
a big real estate company right now, building out a real estate marketplace fully on chain with
brokers that you can use stable coins to sell and buy homes. And there's a cannabis company
up in Pennsylvania, waiting for them to finish out their legal and everything else here. They'll be
the same thing. So yeah, we're, if, I mean,
if you look at our profile and a lot of the things that we have done,
it's been very, very centered around IRL. I mean, that's,
that's one of the things that we're really,
really big and pride ourselves on is, you know,
we can just keep building digital utilities and X, Y,
and Z and just be nonstop. You know, thatstop. That's fantastic. That's great. I think those
should still be around, but I'm a big firm believer in I want to have something that I
can physically hold in my hand that has blockchain tech on it or does something that actually makes
my real life better, that I actually enjoy or I benefit from. So imagine going to the grocery store and
you shop and you're in digital points or something or so forth, right? Just like in the same sense
they do where, oh, you got to spend, you spend a hundred bucks, you get five bucks off. Okay,
cool. Well, all of this stuff can be implemented via, you know, directly on chain and everything.
And when we were, when we were, when we building at eat denver and 20 or this year was it
this year i think it was this year um there was a a food truck outside and they were having issues
taking payments because of the this the wi-fi and stuff um in certain things and and also to their
credit card i don't know they were using square they were having some issues uh square you know
it's like here's the problem
with these, like these, these credit card companies, everything too, right? You have to,
and we did, we did it. We first started off with Stripe when the, and this was before the
regulations got a little less to where they're not just, you know, cutting people off. But about
two years ago, when we built our own IPFS and IPNS gateways and our own system, just it's very
similar to Pinata, but a little better for decentralized networks. We used Stripe to
a part of our NFTs, our subscription system, or if somebody didn't have that, we used Stripe.
And it was about maybe five months in, they just cut us off. And we're like, what the heck,
what's going on here? And we see this still happening to this day in the Apple marketplace, in the
Android marketplace. And they're even twice as worse. They're still giving massive pushback,
but Stripe has dropped a little bit more on regulations. So when they cut us off, we get
an email and they're like, Hey, where's this, you know, where's this money? What are you selling?
What's the service that you're doing here? It's like, we proved every single thing that we're
doing, but yet they're not cutting pinata off. They're not cutting these other major companies
off and all these other things, but they just, they wouldn't let us reactivate our account.
So we just completely just said, all right, see you later. Just abandoned them and moved on to something else and something different.
And that's a big, big problem, right?
Like you should be able to run your business.
We gave them every single piece of documentation.
And the fact that they can just lock up your funds, let's say you have $500,000 in that account.
And the fact that they can just lock that up and seize it, that's a big, big problem. Big problem. You can't even withdraw it. It's like a government coming
along and saying, you can't have this until you prove to us what's going on. And it's absolutely
ridiculous. Where's the money coming from? What are you talking about? That's what we're telling
you where the money's coming from. This is what we're doing, everything else. And so the fact
that these people just have owned these certain major, like there's a big one called First Data, like any major credit card processor, whether
it's Stripe or anybody runs through them and it should not be like that. We should have
a little bit more ease and things like that. Cause like your money is your money, right?
But technically if we look at the way that these companies are operating and the ways that they just seize up funds and they're doing things, is it really your money?
Yeah, man.
I really appreciate you being in Web3 and bringing this wisdom and sharing that.
And I'm sorry that all that happened to you.
But, you know, as we all know, it pushes us down our path further and on to better
things. You know, when one door closes, that other door opens. So I just feel like I want to give you
some gratitude and some flowers just from Web3, just like we are all very fortunate to have people
like you pushing for crypto in the space. And yeah, man, good on you. And I will definitely be
in touch if I do get any bites about, you know,
IRL businesses in my area that are looking for that
because I will be asking.
So thanks, Justin.
Absolutely. I'd love to help it.
I mean, I'd love to see more companies more open to it.
I mean, imagine even if it's just USDC,
they accept it and certain things like that, right?
There's, we can, you know,
and it doesn't have to be done
through a credit card terminal or anything else.
We can literally create their own dApp.
You know, it acts like their own terminals
and their own processing system as a start, you know, right?
And people can say,
oh, well, I can just get a Coinbase wallet
and have them scan a QR code.
Yeah, but people, we gotta think about like eliminating steps.
So it goes to that whole kind of abstraction
and bringing people on change super easy, right? Same concept. Plus we want them to be able to
send the transactions gasless and it's totally doable with like custom built systems. But
for me, I don't even keep my money in a bank account anymore. Like if I have to pay bills,
I'll take it from my USDC and then take that certain amount and go pay bills. I'd rather hold all my USDC
in an APY wallet and earn 5% on it. It's like, why wouldn't any business do that?
And that's when I grew up. When we brought that Broadway company on chain and they were at
ConsenSys and talking about Decentral Bros and what we did for them and bringing Broadway on chain and all these IRL utilities. They saw the value in that and the way we set the system to
where the revenue share and everything that they're like, hey, we'd rather take all these
funds right here in USDC, which they have the best of both worlds, credit cards and USDC,
but they'd rather take all that USDC, put it in an account. So imagine a hundred grand sitting
there and what they're earning on that. Your bank will never do that. And if you do open a savings
account for your bank and you try to pull, they penalize you, right? Or if you want a certain
bank account, they'd say, oh, you must hold $3,000 in there, or you're going to get hit with a service
charge of $100 a month. Why? That account is just an account. It's digital. It's a game. So to me,
I'd rather put my money somewhere else and just take it out as I need it. I'm not going to keep
it in a bank. Yeah, dude, that's spot on. And if you have any kind of written information
about something like this, any kind of documentation of reasons why maybe someone
wouldn't want to use Coinbase Wallet or why somebody would want to work with you or create, you know, their own system.
Or reasons of like what you just were saying, why to store your money in certain areas.
I hear a blinker.
Yeah.
I think you're actually unmuted.
Whoops, that's me.
My bad.
We know that you're turning, though.
Not left.
I am turning left.
Yes.
Good times.
Good times.
He says left, right?
Yeah, left.
Right?
Right left?
Dude, it was funny.
I was in a space the other day where somebody's fire alarm
needed the battery changed and their fire alarm
kept going off.
Oh, I already know who that was.
Anthony. Anthony.
Yeah, that was Toshi or Anthony, huh?
Yeah, it was definitely Anthony.
Yo, Quack,
what were you saying before the...
Left, right, left, right?
Oh, I was just saying, D-Bros or Justin, if you have, you know,
any written information about why somebody might want to not store their money in
their bank or why somebody might want, you know,
their own custom system set up rather than like the,
the appearingly simpler method of like going with Coinbase wallet or something.
I would love to help you, you know,
get that ticket rather than giving it to someone like Coinbase.
So yeah, I'll DM you info and yeah.
Yeah. And I love the aspect of what you're talking about,
like going around and doing some like more crypto clubs.
I think, I think that'd be like, you know, super cool be super cool. It's like we could build virtually
with tons of people, but I love these. It goes back to talking about the IRL events and how
Stoner was in there slept on. I mean, they really are. My happiest time of every year is when
Eat Denver comes around and I get to spend 8 a.m. until 2 a.m. just at Eat Denver just building
and even just sleeping there overnight on a sleeping bag or just being surrounded by people all around the world.
Then the ultimate high there that, you know, it's like everybody just completely forgets about the like real life.
And there's just this like ultimate love and high.
And it'd be super cool if we can have these meetups everywhere.
We know people live everywhere, right?
But if we can have them in multiple places in Denver or over here,
man, that would be so awesome.
Instead of waiting every year for Eat Denver to come around,
it'd be cool if you can get on the site called Meetup.
It'd be pretty cool if people were actually scheduling events on there and
then meeting up at different places.
That'd be really awesome.
Yeah.
And I,
you know,
I think that with the connections I made with a couple of people that are
from Vegas,
you know,
just that alone,
Vegas is a very populated,
dense area. So there's, there's thousands and thousands and
thousands of businesses. And, you know, but with the connections at the Bitcoin conference, you
know, I also met a lot, obviously people that are also into IRL meetups, and there are communities and events here for locals that they do.
So, you know, I'm hoping that by doing this more, you know, Solana Deads, for example, with us, just like Decentral Bros, you know, well, Decentral Bros being who you guys are, what you guys are, but there's still a branding to both of us or into all of you guys.
Every every project that you guys are, you're a brand as well you're
not just a web3 project you are a brand and a company which also you know is reach out you can
reach out to the real world but with like you know salon of deads and you know a little alpha for
those of you guys that don't know but i think there's a shoe you can pre-order you know it's
got a salon of deads tag in it from italy beautiful pair of shoes i like their chef's kiss um you know it's got a solana deads tag in it from italy beautiful pair of shoes i like their
chef's kiss um you know so like being able to start with solana deads where we're starting
with some merch we're trying to get these things together as well we want to be in main main stores
mainstream stores your major outlets um you know, and that that would be awesome.
Yeah. But with a part of that and just like anyone else that's creating brands,
that store needs to be able to take crypto, too. Right.
So for me, you know, as as a you know, whatever what I'm doing with Deads is I'm going to make sure that if we start getting in stores,
that those stores are taking crypto. I don't want those stores to take fiat for our clothes. I mean,
obviously, yeah, it's an option, but I'd rather people pay crypto for their clothes, for their
Solana Deads hat, for their hoodie, for the pair of shoes, so that that money is then going back
into, well, one, you know, if you really start looking at the way that commerce, not e-commerce, I'm talking about
real life here on purpose, but the way that the retail world works, you really could,
if a project has tokens and people come to that store and pay with the tokens, you can get a
bigger cut of your percentage to a store, essentially. And those kind of things,
because people would, you know, the store would obviously be crypto savvy. And so they're going
to want to keep the whatever product they're holding, they'd be great, happy holding a dead's
token, you know, as payment for their shirt, because they're like, yeah, we know that now we
can also stock more of our stores that sells. And then there's, you know, wallets attached to these things.
So everyone's just getting paid as things are getting sent.
It doesn't have to go into these middlemen and held and then paid out later.
You know, there's so much future proofing to the payment systems that crypto can have, too.
It's going to be, you know, it's going to be massive. And the ones, the companies and the founders that are
doing this now and looking into like, you know, shout out to Levels for just constantly wanting
to figure out branding and like, what are we going to wear? Who would wear this, these things?
Because it's so important with what we're building, because as much as we're an NFT
collection, that's, you know, launching Friday for those of you that forgot. We also are we want to have real world use, which is clothing and being able for people to support us that way.
And like I have said many times in spaces before, as we've been doing just the branding thoughts of this, having Solana deads on a shirt is so cool because people in the real world are going to be like, what's that?
Especially if it's cool art and all they care about at first is the art, but then they're like, what's Solana? What
is that? It's a project on Solana. What is Solana? You know, and it's just that, you know, on top of
that, the more we get into stores with our brands and our companies, the more that people are going
to start asking who's that company, just like when Echo started or when Adidas started.
What is that?
That's cool.
I want that.
It's just really cool.
But we are in a growing transition period, though, of where all this goes. So it's very interesting, too, where we're at in history of all of just how this all works in trade, you know?
Yeah, I totally agree man
a thousand percent on that
fucking A right to Solana Deads bro
I wanted to say real quick segue back
a half a second to what Quack Life was
mentioning about you know some
some docs about why
people would want I think Quack Life
we need to gather the pitch deck
together on that we'll get the information from Justin you know and whatever he can help provide us with
we'll get a pitch deck together so that both in our our separate areas of the world you know what
i mean we can go and show people the same reasons and kind of help pitch that same thing and i think
doing irl events is awesome and who knows like we could do an irl event and schedule them even
roughly around the same time so now we do a video conference at the same time, put the webcam up,
it's showing the whole IRL event and we're all interacting and have these places to be able to
talk about it. And I think it's really cool. It's going to, the educational standpoint that we could
bring to the mainstream, I think is really, really important. Yes, big man of pitch deck. This is exactly it.
This is, yeah, so good. And yes, definitely connecting virtually, I think would be awesome.
There's so many things that, you know, I don't, skills I don't have in Web3 that others have,
and would love to, you know, just be able to find those people and link them up with people in the real world that are looking for that kind of assistance. And I think it's too, like, the very, you know,
it's like the foundation of building that house where, you know, starting, like for me, I'm
starting in a smaller area, gathering some people that we can then take it to a little bit of a
bigger area that's like an hour away. And we can have, you know, like a little bit of a bigger area that's like an hour away and we can have you know like a little network of people there and then from there you know maybe we can take something down
to San Francisco Santa Rosa do something at a larger you know like the fairgrounds or something
like more of a convention style and be able to just kind of build it up based on all all of these
you know people that we're we're networking with with and little clubs all over the country or all
over the world could really get together and really push some grassroots kind of movement.
So I'm excited for that and really excited to cheer down to kind of explore that. And I do
want to also segue back a little bit to the Salon of Deds. I was just checking out their website.
segue back a little bit to the salon of deads i was just checking out their website super awesome
also just learning about unify and what they have going on and like this cool product store with all
these different projects i'm seeing some familiar projects over there so that's really cool um yeah
just looking you know looking forward to that expansion. It's a clean website. Yo, thank you.
Well, no, don't not thank me.
Thank Rogue.
Thank you for, yeah, putting such an aesthetically pleasing site of, you know, of Solana Dez. It really fits the theme and it's fun.
And, you know, I know big man's out there trying to solve riddle scratching his head right now.
But, you know, we got a lot of you guys doing it.
It's fun.
It's a big part of what we want. We want community. We want interaction.
We want to always make it fun for you guys and having things to do.
You know, it's why we do the poker nights and it's why, you know, we have the the whitelist group and everyone's just been so fun in there to hang out with and chat with.
And everyone's just been so fun in there to hang out with and chat with.
You know, also with that Unify stuff.
Yeah, you know, that is one of the things, too, with the future, the evolution of commerce and purchasing.
You know, Unify really is a step in that direction and maybe even a leader in that direction as they're starting their journey here.
as they're starting their journey here.
But it's amazing to be a part of something
with the e-commerce like that
because they've also gamified their,
Unify has gamified their space.
So basically the projects that are on there
and your affiliates,
there's leaderboards and statistics of everyone,
the affiliates, who's doing the best,
who's had the most clicks, engagements, things like that.
And so it also brings like some fun into a commercial world
where people can also earn or you can have a leaderboard
and then your project's being seen more, things of that nature.
And so it's really fun.
And honestly, thinking about that too, Quack Life,
you guys would honestly probably be really good uh to chat with unify and talk about
what their e-commerce is because you guys also have merchandising uh and you you know you don't
have to use their supplier per se on shirts and things uh you can have one of your own things like
that there's ways to work with it so if you guys would want to chat with unify i'm sure we could
uh set set something up to see if if quack life would enjoy
that yeah that would be fantastic we're um actually you know working on the merch store
a little bit more to dialing in some some better or not better designs but some different designs
right right now it's a lot of our um just branding and logos and so we're just getting our samples
figured out with you know getting that artwork
on there and making sure that the colors get picked up well and then it all kind of dials in
and so there will be some some new expansion to that too and that could be a really kind of great
time to coordinate that so yes yes yes it's always just a bunch of yeses up here you guys like I don't
know if anyone else feels that way but it's
just like everybody's really building awesome things and um yeah grateful to be here yeah we're
grateful to have quack life with us yo d bros I see your hand up yeah I was curious about the
unify so they've reached out to us and I actually had a call with them about a week ago and I mentioned to them I was
like oh I saw you had the the deads as a what's the word that they use what's the word they use
like a your partner partner okay well I don't know I think they use I thought they was something
different but anyways it's yeah I know that it's like a partnership.
Yeah, so how's things going with that for you guys? And what do you see from that?
What beneficial factors are you seeing from that relationship?
So we don't have any clothing necessarily or like launched on there quite yet.
The first thing we have, you can also offer service through Unify.
So we do from Solana Deads right now, just because Levels and Rogue had worked on it before.
We are offering through Unify just Discord build outs currently because you can kind of put whatever you want under your company account.
because you can kind of put whatever you want under your your company account so right now we
have something just for that just as a placeholder until we have merch going on there and actually
ready to send and ship um and you know but with all of that the in my from everything we had talked
about with unify the the share percentage uh and you know the the outreach that they have unify has been growing so
that you know their um their reach for uh people out there to come join them or see them has been
getting a lot bigger so with that you know i'll say jake jakey it might jake or jakey from the
solana deads famine if he's in here I'm sorry for butchering your name.
But he has an affiliate link with us.
And just him sharing that link, he had he had gotten over a thousand clicks in like to our Solana Deads page, even without anything fully like ready to launch on there.
But that's a part of kind of showing us the proof in the pudding as we are getting our merch ready for the store. Um,
so I'd have to give you like more clarity on how everything seems to go merch
wise as we get more, you know,
obviously geared for that and pushing stuff off the store regularly. Um,
but just,
so did they just accept anybody like somebody can just head over there and sign up
without no you have to have meeting and you have to partner with them uh there we had a couple of
private meetings with unified talked about what they were doing what we were going to you know
agree to essentially um the uh you get a discount as well on things or like a better deal. If you have their NFT as well,
you kind of like how you guys do in that sense.
If you have your guys NFT or,
you know,
two,
three,
you get a different bracket.
So they do have that option as well.
Okay.
Cause he seemed like a really nice,
genuine dude.
You know,
he was out at the park playing with his daughter.
I can hear in the background.
It was a great conversation.
I think it was like on a Saturday or something. And I, and I, he, he was out at the park playing with his daughter. I can hear in the background. It was a great conversation. I think it was like on a Saturday or something.
And he does lives sometimes.
I want to be on his next one because he was the only one on the live and I didn't have my webcam.
But I do talk with him.
I've talked to him a few times and like he's on Martech spaces with us every week and Martech's on his spaces.
So I've interacted with Unify quite a bit on a personal level outside of Solana Deads now.
And I really love just all the interactivity.
They have a Unify partnership group that you'll be in if you have your project in there.
And so everyone is also communicating in there and sharing different outlets of getting eyes on your projects together in there. So, you know, it is a
lot unified. And I've talked to them about being part of the GPC too, which I think, obviously,
it's something we want to do. I just haven't had time. They haven't had time. I don't have time
right this moment. But they're going to be another project that's community based that really cares
about the other projects, the other people in the space.
They don't have a blockchain bias. And so, you know, they're trying to be the Shopify of Web3
is what I would essentially say. Okay. That's what I saw too when I was reading to their site
and when I talked to him. And I was just curious because I know it was a lot of like,
you know, services and selling merch.
And I know you guys are still leading to that,
but it sounds like you're just positioning yourself
for when you get the merch and everything ready, right?
Yeah, we're ready to fire off essentially on the Unify side.
So on their platform and they build out the page for you.
They had meetings with us to ask us how the page looked.
Do you guys like this?
Would you like anything change?
Super friendly the whole way, man.
And that's like, that was my thing.
And honestly, for you too,
like anyone that wants to chat with Unify,
if you haven't talked to Unify before,
you know, DM me, I'd be happy to,
the more that we bring into Unify,
the more that we will also bring other eyes
from different worlds, blockchains and projects into another space that's kind of got a lot of, you know, projects together.
And it just helped the more the people that start to adopt this Web3 e-commerce and we help Unify grow in that sense, we're going to have more eyes on all of us, too.
So if anyone would like to be a part of that or look into the e-commerce,
set up a meeting with them,
I'm sure that if I was able to chat with Unify,
like I'll be in a space with them at 2.30 PST today.
So when we do that, you know, I would, yeah,
I know that they want more projects.
And yeah, think of it as a Web3 Shopify.
Sorry.
It wouldn't let me unmute my own mic.
That was crazy.
I was trying to.
I know.
I was just sitting here and my space just showed connecting.
And I was like, oh, no.
I was like, I'm about to get lost.
Dude, it says my signal is so solid today.
I don't know why it's tripping in and out.
But also –
No, that's good to know.
I just wanted to hear your experience and everything else.
I know you don't have the merch and everything yet.
I mean, clearly you're just taking the right steps to align yourself with the visions that you're doing for Solana Dead, which is fantastic.
And plus, knowing you, you have a good sense on the market and tas and a lot of
other things so i was just um i was just curious to what you thought about that and um you know i
guess i would say it seems like they're more on the solana side if i understand that correctly
so yeah they're their nft and their project itself is on Solana as well.
So they're there.
Yeah.
So like the payments, the merch and stuff would be like Solana.
Payments are fiat and crypto.
I believe that there's multiple ways to pay.
I don't know how bridging or any of that, if there's implementation for that or how that would necessarily work but i i would i would i that's
something i would just ask them uh that i could ask them to because i'm actually not 100 sure i
know that they take solana um but and and fiat but i don't know exactly i don't know the wallet
connections on the website i guess i'd have to go on the website, connect the wallet, and then see what
options the payout would be. Sweet. Thanks, man. Yeah, of course. And yeah, definitely,
we should at least, you know, chat or see if they want to chat about like what the partnership part
is. Because I think it's good for branding in general. The other thing that I thought was cool
about them was that you can have a different printer or source of your stuff. So you can still
use the store, let's say, but if you have a printer distributor that you like, you can link that with
their website so that they have, you know, essentially a redirect in a way so that you're having all of your sales stuff on there.
And then there's also an escrow in between for the buyer so that that item is shipped before you're paid.
Those kind of things. So they also seem to, you know, from what I know of Unify and have talked to them about,
they have security in between as well so that you're not just paying so that if someone is buying something that that actually goes out prior to taking the money being taken and given to
somebody which is nice because that'll help keep buyers safe from you know if somebody doesn't
send something ever or something like that were to happen they also have a safety net for you
for you but yeah um so i i messed up this morning too y'all i had said that we were supposed to roll
into a space at noon today and that was supposed to be for companions and it was my bad because i
am needing to be better at understanding or remembering the time zone differences because
the noon space for companions and I feel terrible was actually at noon EST not PST so there is not
a space in 40 minutes and I already DM'd companions I'd like to have them on a space for me and like
over here and then I also apologized and that I just put the wrong time zone.
So we do not have a noon space with companions because that one's already over.
But we do have a unify space and that one's at 530 Eastern time.
So at 530 Eastern time, I will be over there with the Solana deads.
And we will talk about everything there with Unify.
And for those of you guys that have not been around Unify too much or you might have any questions about Unify,
it's going to be a good time to go check out the space and see what they're talking about and projects that they have.
Obviously, we'll be there with the Solana Deads chatting with them.
So that will be super fun.
But yeah yeah my bad
everybody telling you guys we're gonna roll space to space to space because the middle space is not
there to roll to um so we're gonna roll strong um and keep going uh on this one for a bit and then
uh yeah when we cut it i'll see you guys for the 5 30 as well just wanted to update you guys because
i know some of you guys knew that there was going to be three spaces just to go ahead big man yeah i just wanted to ask real
quick how long do you think the uh unify space is going to be i want to try to catch that
so i feel like theirs are usually a two hour max or okay okay cool but i i i have like a one hour
segment i'm doing with somebody today and it's over at six
so i'll be i'll be there half hour late but i'll be coming into that check it out awesome yeah no
it'll be super fun to have you too we you know it's just about again it always comes back to
community y'all it's what we're building it's and i there is a lot of projects that are starting to
build with other people in mind just like decentral bros right decentral bros builds with who else's token can we help what other ecosystems can we
attach to what can we bridge to to reach out and you know that all that stuff is just so important
and to to not uh i guess pigeonhole yourself into one spot you know? And so it's really cool to see just the projects being coming together,
working together, all these different spaces starting to pop.
It's like Martech spaces on Saturdays where there's just like, you know,
20 different communities in there sometimes.
And it's just really cool to see it all playing out.
We're in the middle of a bull run too you know yeah do have
to say i was able to bridge from base to abstract yesterday so well i'm not gonna call it a bridge
it's a corridor but you know don't get lost in the corridor dude that's so cool that it's stuff
like that that that web 3 really needs you know one of the biggest things that's so cool. It's stuff like that, that Web3 really needs. You know, one of the biggest
things that's going to need to be in Web3, in my opinion, and it's not to like centralize it at all
by any means, but to be able to have chains and other layer ones, layer twos, be able to
easily have compatibility in conversion or into exchanging, you know, that's probably going to be one of the
biggest tasks in Web3 and crypto that needs to be done to really bring the real world into this.
The real world doesn't want to come in here having to have 10 different wallets. Well,
if you're tricky, you have like 37. He might have 42 now. But you know, you have like tons of wallets
and you have your seed phrases
and all that. And as much as we're all good at that, and we understand the security of that,
the rest of the world, most of them don't want to do that. So you know, it's it's companies like
Decentral Bros, that is figuring out these ways to like he just said, bridging base over to abstract two completely different um uh chain chains that
don't interact and we're and and to be able to start focusing on creating a stable coin over
there with that bridge and for those of you that don't understand the the massive side proportion
of that it is insane to think to be the first stable coin somewhere that people can go stable
out on and you it for all of you guys in crypto it benefits all of us for stabling because for me
too i always send money in stable anyways um so if a chain doesn't have a stable then i don't i
don't typically like to send money that way because it's just it's just how I am I
like to I like to send my money in a stable um you know and it's uh it's such a under appreciated
thing right now so I'm just giving Decentral Bros a little extra flowers today because
without the people that are taking these leaps and these uh risks on trying to innovate and evolutionize what
we're doing for everyone to have an easier space to work in.
That's a hero, bro.
So, you know, and the more of us or you guys that keep adding to this, you know, it's just
like the people that took D Bros class.
It's super important that we have more builders that know what they're doing to build properly so that we don't have mistakes.
And so we do have easability for people getting into Web3.
Go ahead, big man.
So I actually did.
I have a dev question about this one for Justin.
And basically, I assume the corridor can use account abstraction.
And if it can't, then this won't really matter.
But I'm assuming it can.
And all right.
So if I already have an abstract global wallet assigned from abstract and it has that private key already, when I log into the corridor, will it pull that same private key or will it initiate a new one right there?
Okay. So there's a few different approaches and I'm going to have this conversation with
Dragon Punks on Thursday about it, but we kind of took a, okay, this goes back to the whole wallet
thing that having multiple wallets and different stuff and everything like, like Stoner was just
saying to accomplish one thing. We've been leveraging
new SDKs. Okay. So everybody, the problem that I'm seeing in the space is that new changes pop
up because they, you know, people go and they do roll-ups or, and I've noticed that abstract is
essentially a roll-up of an L2. It mixed with like the, you know, directly from Ethereum of an L1
and they have their own wallet, right? They have their own wallet, but their own wallet is not up of an L2 mixed with like the, you know, directly from Ethereum of an L1. And they
have their own wallet, right? They have their own wallet, but their own wallet is not compatible
with quite a bit of stuff. And I actually just saw, as we're sitting here talking about
it, I actually just saw a post from them and I was reading it, you know, the Cigar or I
think is his name, where he said, we're starting to see several chains roll out their own versions
of abstract global wallet. And that is absolutely fantastic. But you can see that now chains have to adapt and adopt that.
So if we look at, and I've always preached this, and this is why we did it in our class,
but leveraging tech like Reown for the account abstraction and everything else,
own, right. For the account abstraction and everything else, like you, there's one SDKs
and wallets there that is reowned is just, is wallet connect and Wagami now. Like they're just
a new owners. They're just, hence the name reown. I mean, it's a cool name, but within reown,
like used to have to have, used to have to use Solana web three connection wallets. And then
you wouldn't be able to mix that with Wagami and so forth. You would have to have like different pages with
different logins. But with Reown, you don't like I can put a Bitcoin wallet, I can put a Solana
wallet, I can put wallets to all these other chains. And so we're leveraging the SDKs and
stuff from Reown for this purpose. So we can have that account
abstraction. We can have that entire global across everything without worrying about if
base would adopt or roll out their own version of the abstract global wallet. So we don't want
to bank on that. We don't want to build that. Why do that? Why waste all that time when there's a company out there that's making this possible for a global that's just overall for everything?
Right.
No, that makes sense.
The reason I'm asking about it, too, is because I've actually already experienced the problem.
Originally, when DragonPunks was minting on Blvver, i ported the abstract train into my coinbase wallet
and one i can't see my nfts unless i go to magic eden and check them out so they just don't show
up in my wallet at all i can't even see that dragon punks is a collection and then um i can't
port that wallet into my abstract account like i can't bring any of those dragon punks onto the abstract streaming
platform or into that global wallet like it's there's no interface for me to send there's no
i'd have to place a buy order and then go to my abstract global wallet and then uh sorry a sell
order on the other one and then buy it on my abstract global wallet in order to receive it
like it there's no UI for anything.
Yeah, we're hoping that the way we're doing it right now,
like, okay, so if anybody has the NFT
and has access to the development channel
inside of Discord for DragonPunks,
I posted an update yesterday too,
of me showing myself bridge my USDC,
or I'm not gonna say bridge,
we had to enter the corridor
with my usdc on base and it and uh you know went to the the oracle that we built for the server on
the back end and minted me my usdr and dropped it my wallet and i just used a metamask for that
just overall globally just metamask right and um i haven't tested it with any other wallets or anything yet, but leveraging the SDKs
from Reown, there's about 180 different wallets we can support. So that includes the smart wallets,
that includes Coinbase, that includes all these others. So you should definitely shoot me a DM
in DragonPunks because it'd be good to have some beta testers
that have some questions about these items
that we can give access to the DevLink
because I did push, every update's been pushing now,
now there's a front end.
The DragonPunks build is pretty complex
because the way that bytecode is read across abstract chain is quite a bit different
than it's done or compiled through, you know, L1s or L2s or any other L2s out there that read
bytecode a certain way. So we have to have a hardhat scaffold for just the base side. We have
to have a hardhat scaffold that's all through ZKZ and the rollups just for the side of abstract. We
have to have a backend for the Oracle and we have to have a frontend scaffold that's altered ZKZinc and the roll-ups just for the side of abstract. We have to have a back end for the Oracle and we have to have a front end. So there's
four major moving parts. And so the front end is pushed to a current temporary domain that
we can give access to and test USDC and so forth. So it'd be really good to have some people that
have certain problems with other
connections or wallets or bridging or moving assets like you're talking about, to come in
there and simulate it to see if that issue still lies and things there. So it's a great question.
I can't 100% like, say confidently, like, oh, we solved all that. But our goal is to
stay with this wallet connection. Like I contemplated this as I was building it,
as we're, sorry, we're still building it. But phase one, just for the corridor part,
I contemplated looking at the abstract docs and going, okay, well, the abstract wallet, and I'm like, and I just did not do it. I didn't implement the abstract global wallet.
I mean, it says global, but if it's global, it'd be everywhere. It's not other chains have to
adopt it. So the word global in there just doesn't ring, tickle my fancy. But when I look at other
documentation and stuff out there, if we look
at re-owned, they have RPCs and stuff that you don't have to pay for, which is fantastic.
But in this case, we're using custom RPCs just because of the complexity of the build.
But we know that re-owned is adoptable across every single thing. And most 90% of sites that
are using account abstraction and everything
right now are using Reown or they're using Coinbase SDKs directly. But if you use Coinbase
SDKs directly, you're creating the account abstraction directly through Coinbase. So
there's a give or take to a way a lot of these companies are offering services.
It'd be nice if we can get people to build in a certain
way. Because if you look at marketplaces, right? Marketplaces like Magic Eden, LaunchMyNFT,
all these others, they just don't go along and create their own standards. Because if they did,
they wouldn't be as popular as they are, including OpenSea. It started with OpenSea.
They all follow the same standards. Why? Because there's't, they don't want, there's no way.
And I say this all the time. There's no way that if they make their own standard and they're the
20%, there's 80%, the 80% is not going to conform to them. It's just not going to happen.
So they need to say, okay, well, this is the way that they're reading metadata. This is the way
that metadata is done. And we need to follow these same standards. They can have their own
tricks and cool little things. Absolutely. But if you ever notice when you go to any of these sites and you just connect
your wallet you can view your nfts that's because they're all following the same standards so we
just need a little bit more of that but reown definitely offers that yes no a thousand percent
dude the future proofing and just like the the solid pave way on it like i'd like you pretty much answered my question
anyway um so that that's awesome um i would love to test some shit out too and like poke and prod
at it a little bit you know definitely could see if there's any like common problems that i could
see other people having um but it sounds like because you guys are taking that approach as well
that when i go through the corridor,
I'll just have to transfer from that,
that newly created account to my abstract account.
That's on the streaming platform.
Yeah.
Well,
at first I would like to take a look at the abstract wallet that you have
and what assets lie in there.
What I'd like to do is duplicate those assets,
but on test net.
Okay. I mean, because everything we need to do is on test net right now, because I'm not going to
have you move around physical assets that are worth money, right? And then risk them going
into limbo or anything else. I don't care if $20,000 of test USDC goes in the limbo. I'll just mint more. Yeah.
And so forth. So yeah. So I would just say, I would say, you know,
let's, let's play it by DMs probably in like the next two weeks. It'd be good to have, and I'll talk, you know,
I'll talk to them on Thursday with dragon punks,
but it'd be good to get like some really good trusted friends and people and
stuff as beta testers in there. And I'd like to see some of the problems that you're
having, uh, duplicate those onto test net, and then just have you go from a different approach,
like just completely abandon that abstract wallet. Right. And then go this route that we're doing
here. And if it works the way that we're doing it with any wallet,
then I would use whatever wallet is offered through Reon
which is about 180 plus.
I mean, there's tons of wallets out there.
So your own choice, whatever it is, right?
Just like how some guy will say,
oh, I like Sony, well, I like Samsung.
There's a brand preference.
Well, it's the same thing with wallets, right? So whatever your preference may be, we'll use that
one and we'll mimic exactly what you're doing. And if it works, then I would just say you can
take all, then we can confidently say you can take all of your assets that are on mainnet and move
them over here and you won't have that issue anymore. Yes. No, I know exactly what you're
saying for sure i'll
definitely uh be in touch in the dms about it and would definitely love to do that as well
sounds fucking fantabulous ah i love building in the morning y'all coming up with ideas to
everyone chatting and sharing stuff it's it's a this is why i love spaces in in web 3 anyways to be honest is there's a lot
of uh the cross building the cross uh like uh thinking it's really cool i i love you guys you
guys you guys up here doing that that's awesome yeah i gotta give you hey big big man's working
on it man he's he's he's doing fantastic like the way that he's he's just
like snapping through stuff and the way he he can see things now i mean i'm pretty impressed by um
his his quick on the feet thinking and learning so he's a smart dude mofo you beat me to the punch
i was about to pass you to flowers for teaching me all that because like if it wasn't for that
class i wouldn't have had that eye on it like you know what i mean i wouldn't have really understood what was going on
to that degree i wouldn't have even seen it as a fixable problem i would have just said this thing
sucks you know what i mean that's the way i would have looked at it but you guys are really coming
with a solution and honestly if it if we can solve that and it works that's like that's
groundbreaking in my opinion for their chain even like you know what i mean that solves they should just change the way that they're doing account abstraction at that point
And and you know, that's just my belief in my opinion
You said preferences and shit, but if it doesn't matter and I can just
Use that private key to import it to that platform still on abstract because that's the the problem I have with the coinbase
One right now is I can't use, I tried to import that private key.
It says it imports the private key.
It doesn't display anything on abstract, like on their interface.
I can't see anything.
So I'm like, yeah, that doesn't work.
Yeah, when I was doing the testing for the corridor and everything else,
like all I'd have to do is just swap the network
and I can see my assets and my MetaMask.
Oh, yeah.
See, so I'm using account abstraction on like just using my email address through the abstract platform, abstract portal, XYZ, whatever that is.
And then from there, there's like another import function you can import another
wallet to it so i clicked on that import and then i imported the private key because it wasn't letting
me log in through my coinbase one for some reason i don't know exactly but yeah definitely um i'll
chop it up on the dms for you too i don't mean to like take over the space with it all and stuff
it's just a lot. You guys are good.
You ain't taking over the space.
This is all stuff that we need to, you know,
these are things that other project builders or other people that are
devving also need to hear too.
You know, we're in a, we were just talking about earlier that we're in a
space where we're essentially the pioneers.
We say this all the time.
We're building right now.
And we're, you know, it's,
it's good to talk about these things live with every, with other people here and people that are building because it might
spark something in someone else's mind or someone else might start a different corridor because
we're saying that no but you know um it's just like there's there's just so much that can be
learned or thought of or ideas that could come to life just from being able to chat in these spaces.
That's why we do take the time to talk about this stuff or or idea shooter, you know, have these brainstorming sessions because, you know, someone else might hit us up in a DM be like, yo, I have an idea.
It's like, oh, shit, that actually works.
Go ahead, Justin.
I just wanted to give a big shout out.
I see NFT kid popped in here too.
So I just wanted to give him a big shout out for throwing support.
Yo, I saw, I just commented too.
Yo, Keith, you ever want to come up?
You were welcome to come chat, say hi.
You know, I don't know.
Were you at the, I don't know if NFT kid was at the Bitcoin conference.
I know we both are out here. So I didn't know if he was going to end Bitcoin conference. I know we both are out here.
So I didn't know if he was going to end up heading out to the conference or check that out.
Like I said, there's a lot of people that didn't know what Bitcoin was or how it necessarily works.
But there is a damn lot of people at that convention or the conference.
So a lot of people learning.
But yeah, it's super cool
but yeah keith if you ever want to come up you are welcome to ask for a mic uh but yeah no dude
it's uh it's an awesome day we're you know just but besides the the usdr uh draco coin with dragon
punks and decentral bros here, getting that together.
You know, all these, so many other projects are cooking right now.
You know, I know Quack Life is just cooking and communicating with people
and growing on the back end.
You know, obviously you guys have seen us with Solana Deads.
Our team of fam and community over there is just absolutely amazing.
We have amazing builders. We have
amazing, uh, reply and just every reply guys and TG and just everyone that helps us. Um,
it's just absolutely legendary. And, you know, we can't do it with all of you guys, without all of
you guys that show up every week for us that show up to the spaces, um, that show up on the timeline
for us that are in the groups with us
talking you know we wouldn't be able to have the projects that we have or do the fun things we do
if none of you guys were there so you know thank you guys for everyone that shows up for our poker
nights that shows up for when we're doing giveaways or when we're you know in these spaces
hanging out and you guys just show up, roll through all the time.
You know, I know that just because of how this morning is, even with all the technical difficulties
at first, like, look how many of you guys are still here. We made it. We pushed through the
X having some problems this morning. And, you know, that just shows me that how Friday goes
when we have this mint party on Friday or this launch party Friday morning, it is going to
be bonkers. I know so many people are are excited to one you we've obviously we had delayed this a
couple of times and I know that everyone was more excited each time. And so, you know, it's just
going to be fun to have the community with us on Friday and have you guys there minting with us and being a part of the
celebration. And, you know, I love that we're able to do this with every project, all the people that
that launched, like when Solana Strays launched, like when Dragon Punks launched, you know, we were
there as a GPC for those couple of projects when they started and seeing how they pushed through and were able to successfully
mint these projects. You know, I'm just very excited to see, you know, how everyone continues
to do this and how all the projects continue to eat as we build this conglomerate bigger and
bigger. It's just we like I know I say it all the time, but the fact that we're here in Web3 doing
what we're doing now, we are going to be a change for the entire world.
We're going to help change the world, make it a better place to work in.
You know, I see it in the communities that we're building now or the teams that we have.
I haven't worked with a team in Web3 that I've been like, God, I can't stand having meetings with this person or I can't stand having to go to this place. I don't have that
in Web3. I love every single person I have a meeting with, every project I consult with or
advise for, all of it. I'm having just a blast and no one ever has negativity. You know, for those of
you that worked in real world, and I worked in tech and serving for a long time, I'll tell you
what, those are the two industries that people will chew your head off for like their mouse not left clicking anymore, or for their potatoes being
a little too cold. And so coming from worlds like that, where people just shit on you all day,
to a world and teams of people that are just here supporting each other and growing with each other
so that all of our projects can win. It makes me, I've told my wife before,
I could never go back to regular work
because it would be depressing to go back to that kind of world.
And unfortunately, we live in a consumer fearful mainstream world.
So it's kind of like that.
But Web3 is a place for us to change the world while also having products and brands that are good for people to consume.
I second that, bro. 100 percent. Coming from the tech industry and doing tons of just installs of access control or facial recognition cameras or AV or whatever, you know, it was like,
yeah, I think I've told my wife the same thing. Like I said, I gave up my big company that I have for 15 years. I started and wasn't happy. And yeah, people are nasty. You know, I used to say,
you know, I used to pull my hair out when I would turn, when I would when this client would try to pay me $100,000 and have me do his job.
And I'd be like, nope.
And I could tell.
I started learning, right?
It wasn't about the money.
It was like, I'm going to be walking on eggshells.
And it would be really hard.
It'd be like pulling teeth to get payments from this guy.
This guy is a cheapskate mofo and all these other things.
And he is an a-hole.
And he's one of those people in the world, you know, you could tell that Trump on people, um, and run over people and use his leverage and money and power
to get what he wants. And, and, and it happens, right. You, you, you see it nonstop, but in web
three and the people that I've met so far, I mean, it's crazy. I remember your first space, dude,
you know, like when we met and the same table with Big Man, when you guys were in there, it was, it was wild.
I just took a shot, jumped in there.
And, and when I heard just like how genuine you guys were and the way that you even said it, I've been watching you grow yourself, dude.
Like seeing you go from, you're like, oh, I'm going to do this TA and these spaces to, oh no, I'm switching it up.
You know, like finding your place. Like it took a
second and a minute, but that's okay. Absolutely. Everybody has their own play in web three. You
may start out in one spot, but then you realize that now this isn't where I should be. And then
you shift yourself to that better. I've watched you do it and I've watched big man do it and grow.
And I just want to give you your flowers because you're doing great,
dude. Yeah. Thank you, dude. And it is, it's, it's, uh, so, you know, just a little bit about,
I guess, me in my history, you know, I jumped jobs a lot in real life too. Um, I think it
was the longest standing, but you know, in the real world, world uh even from when i was 15 doing construction when i
probably shouldn't have been uh but to you know now i we me and my wife were talking about the
other day i guess we're living in vegas most of my life and working on the strip i i've done
we've at least 50 different careers i know that sounds like some people are gonna be like there's
it doesn't even make sense but like there was times where I had two or three different jobs that I was
working at the same time. And also, like, just getting kind of bored on other jobs. And so I
would just keep I'd have two or three jobs, but I would just do, you know, two for a while. And
the third one would change every few months or whatever. And the thing that I learned about all of that is one, it's not bad to change things up.
I came into Web3 with the intention of just being a reply guy and making money off of posts and
account stuff. But I really love economics and I really like business overall, essentially. And I feel like I do have a good mind
for solutions or coming up with ideas and planning. So, you know, it's funny that you say
that because I came in wanting to just be a reply guy. Then I was like, well, I really like TA. And
I think a lot of people underestimate the value in media and TA. So I wanted to show that,
and I still do. But it really has just kept shifting and shifting to where now, you know,
Rogan Levels were talking to me during the conference last week, and we were like, what
should I be? And I think we settled on public relations. And that's something that along with consulting
and advising, which for those of you that don't know, I have been telling people when I'm on
spaces or in meetings, but I am moving more into full consulting and advising because I understand
the world of business, IRL and crypto. And I think you kind of need to have all three of those. And I do
consulting for IT structures now and some business stuff in real life. So I'm hoping to do an even
better job of that in Web3. But all of that didn't happen until I met you guys, until I started
communicating with all of you in here, meeting everyone, whether you're a project builder,
or whether you're a reply guy or girl
yourself, like those kind of things, because I met all of you. And so many of you guys have
showed so much love to whether it's the information I may be able to bring to the table,
or a meditative space for you to talk and come to me when you feel overwhelmed, and you just need
some peace, because that's something I take important in my life too. So it's just been so cool to be a part of all of this. And, you know,
I've, I have, I've changed my direction a couple times, and it'll probably change a couple more
times as I continue to, to evolve in the space, but know that everything that I ever do in this
space is always going to be in my mind and hopes to be the betterment of the entire space or the
entire Web3. And that's why we run these spaces. That's why we have so many different PFPs and
projects in here. You know, it's just like Martech always says, there is no gating here. We don't
project or blockchain gate everyone from everywhere. You're allowed here. This is where we grow. This
is where we build,
just like when Justin and Big Man were talking about the corridors and how to work on these things. This is, in my opinion, one of the best times of history to be a part of. We're in one of
the craziest parts of history that will ever be talked about with what we're doing. So, you know,
I know I've been on a soapbox a lot today but i'm
feeling passionate it might be because the salon of deads are launching on friday and i'm passionate
about that too but damn am i passionate about everybody in this room and everything we're doing
so uh moonbeam it's always a pleasure to hear your voice and i've had you and talked to you in a few
spaces so let's get a good morning from you hi yeah i just woke up um to the kittens
gave them baths last night i'll tell you what cats and water they it really just doesn't mix but um
they needed it so i rested in and got up and seen you guys i was like i'm going to hear crypto
stoner i love hearing you and i love this community. I mean, when what you were talking about PR, personal relations, that is where it's at.
You get the right people.
Like Tricky's really good at it.
Like you're good at it.
The Central's good at it.
There's a lot of people quite digi joints.
I mean, mama and papa.
It's like you can sit and go in their rooms and ask them a question and not feel dumb for asking it.
And even there's somebody in that room that needed it too, but never asked.
I think PR is very, very important because like when you come into it, like I've been in all this for a while.
So I'm pretty bright.
But when you're new, you sit there and you're, I didn't know what dms meant when i got on twitter
and tricky laughed at me and he's like direct message i was like oh i was like oh my god you
know he's like catch me to dms i was like where are they going for this dm thing and it's like
little things like that and people letting people know and making them feel not ignorant about Web3.
Because Web3 is like.
When people say Web3.
They're like what is that?
A lot of people don't have spaces.
Just about Web3.
Like the history.
Like where did it come from?
What is different between Web3 and the web before that?
That's what I wish people would have.
More of like a PR, Web3, you know, a teaching session,
music NFTs.
Like I learned in one the other day that the guy sold a million copies in 57 seconds. The very first guy that sold a music NFT.
57 seconds, a million copies.
That's unheard of anywhere.
So I wanted to learn what platform did he do that on
you know and i think it's really cool that you guys get together and pump projects up you know
i know when i get my nft project going which i'm collabing it right now i'm gonna need that and i'm
gonna need you guys i'm with me because i love you guys y'all are awesome but it's great to wake
up to my crypto stoner and you guys.
I love you guys.
Yeah, it's such a pleasure to have you hop in the spaces.
I'm so glad that I, you know, obviously it's kind of funny how it all works.
Justin was talking about like, oh, I remember your guys' first space.
And, you know, I just hopped in there and take a chance to be like, hey, what's up?
And it's led to this friendship and this this rapport and this
family that we've started to just create and build around each other. And, you know, Moonbeam,
for you and me interacting, you know, it's been newer for us to be able to have time to chat. It
was nice to chat on Martex. But, you know, I wouldn't have met you without Tricky. And that
goes back to Tricky. And Tricky is one of the most genuine, authentic human beings I've ever met.
And so, you know, I love interacting with Tricky. I love being a part of Weed with Tricky. And Tricky is one of the most genuine, authentic human beings I've ever met. And so, you know, I love interacting with Tricky. I love being a part of weed with Tricky.
You know, and the DeFi space donkeys are just, yeah, I love the DeFi space donkeys. And I love
everything that Tricky is to FA every time he comes in. And it just goes back to the community
side of everything that we're doing, right? It's all of us just being able to be non-biased of chains and other things that don't really matter which one someone is on
or likes or uses and more about just all of us coming together and trying to kind of build a
world that has more care for each other than the world that we live in right now yes you nailed it and it's so cool
because tricky is like the binding of the book like i think um i've been on twitter for quite a
few years and when i met him everybody says the same thing crypto he's like the binding of the
book like without him a lot of the glue would have not been stuck together and I definitely
I give props to him you guys
you know everybody in this room I think
I know and I've
had nothing but happiness
I mean it brings me joy to sit
and listen and learn you guys
are so intelligent
oh you know what I think you summoned
Tricky we're gonna need a 2fa moonbeam
it's tricky buddha from defy space donkeys powered by weed on solana get yourself a bag of weed
my ears were ringing man i was like am i not in the right space where is my space
i know let's talk about it was awesome flowers actively i'm like oh shit i have to come on
stage now tricky walks into the room and just gets hit with a bouquet of flowers he's like
covered with roses you're awesome tricky your positivity is is definitely a beaming light
let's go i'm glad to hear it man absolutely you guys gotta stay positive you gotta support each
other that's that is what it's all about you know like i think a lot of us have inadvertently learned
that you know because a lot of people came here for money. They came here for like, you know, to build something. And then the market went away.
And we were like, all right.
All right.
Well, now what do we do here?
And you hunker down, you build some stuff.
And then the next thing you know, you're surrounded by friends.
I think we actually got blessed by that whole bear market because it took out a lot of the nonsense and the noise that we would have been distracted with otherwise right and we got to meet each other so it all works out you know just just
stay positive and keep plugging away you never know man i'm uh i'm pumped to see all these like
projects coming together and nft nyc is just around the corner i know rick is out there right
now at an event too um i hope everyone takes lots of pictures, man. It's going to be awesome content. Are you guys going to do like a live stream? I hope so.
Yeah. Yeah. We're actually working on this, this proposal with a little nouns. So we'll
do a little nouns and wave wars event. I think we have enough people to pass our, our proposal.
Now we've, we've kind of sourced it out through the community so it should be good to go once we
submit that it should be approved pretty quick and then uh yeah so it looks like it i mean it's
not official like not locked in completely but we are making all efforts and either way i'm going to
be there so we got to make it happen locked on i am locked on to position i am locked on
so much fun.
Yo, and, you know, congrats to, uh, for Tricky.
Cause I know that his, uh, you know, manifestation is powerful y'all. And I know that Tricky is a manifester like me and he manifested exactly what he wanted.
And just to show y'all it works, you manifest that you want to go to NYC NFT, you're going
to be there.
And, you know know so it was really
cool to see you just put in that love towards everyone and seeing somebody reward you for it
um and and having you go and obviously you'd be a great person to represent anybody so
super excited for that um i go ahead all the all the gpc fam too like if you guys want to send me
like any cool stickers or stuff to like hand out uh i'm going to go to lots of events so if it's an easy like sticker that someone's going to like too like
hell yeah send it over uh i'll give you a i'll give you an address to send out any merch or
anything and yeah let's uh let's get a little exposure for everybody i love that so you heard
that don't sleep on tricky send him some stuff he'll you know you're going to give it out he's
either going to give it out or rock it and then people are gonna ask about it um so we have a
we have a couple new faces um and since they were following me when they requested a mic i feel like
that's always respectable uh also they've been polite while being up here and not hadn't cut in
or anything um you guys uh loud packs i know crow you had come up too but loud
packs you have been down there with your with your mic request in pretty much since the space
started so i appreciate you hanging out uh with kind of the crew that's normally up here and
listening to us and being a part of what we've been talking about um but now i'd like to give
you a moment to introduce yourself and say hello if you'd like yeah brother i was actually excited to talk to you because we had talked before about
you coming into the loud pack shop remember and i was just i was i was gonna ask you again if you
want to pull up sometime bro come see the store come spend spend some solana in the store bro
yes i still need and the only reason that we have not been out as much lately
is my Turbo Blue in my car, and I have not wanted to fix it.
So we haven't necessarily needed a car,
and I am also selling the car too so that I can put crypto for right now.
So we just haven't been able to uh we're not as mobile as we
will be back around winter here uh because i'm also getting a winter more winter capable vehicle
this time um turbos don't like being pushed up the hill apparently every day here well tomorrow too
if you have time tomorrow because you you know i have a cannabis line inside of a few dispensaries in town.
Tomorrow, which is, what is it, June 5th at 7 p.m.
at the loudest dispensary in all of Las Vegas,
Loud Packs is going to be hosting a big event.
So we're going to have food, DJs, weed giveaways, merch giveaways.
I was thinking about giving away two $25 rewards in Solana.
We're going to have the Loud Packs party bus,
so you can pull up on that and smoke with me.
And, bro, just if you go, you're guaranteed to win something, that's for sure.
Yo, I love that. And actually, my homie is off tomorrow,
so I think we might be able to turn up for something like that can
you df and let me know where it's at in vegas here and everything like where the yeah you're
gonna be the locations on his profile too dude i was just checking it out yeah dude no i had seen
it and literally i'm not kidding like the week and a half two weeks that we had to go we were busy
and then the car like went out in the middle of that. So I've been bummed that I haven't been able to get over there yet.
Because also I am on the other side of town from you.
Like straight across.
Yeah, that's fine, bro.
We're not going anywhere.
We've been there for five years and still growing.
But it's at Nulu on Fremont and Main Street, if you know where that is.
But I'm going to post a flyer pretty soon here.
And then we made a last minute decision to put the words ladies night on the top to draw more attention.
So the girls are going to get rewards, a little more rewards than the guys.
This is for the ladies.
Yes.
I love that.
Ladies night.
And I love your work.
I was just on your page.
That is so awesome.
Yeah.
Ladies night.
You're definitely going to get us.
We're definitely going to have to jump on board.
Yeah, man, yeah.
And then, what was I going to say?
Fuck, I'm blanking out now.
You were talking about ladies night?
Yeah, I'll send you guys.
I'll send you the flyer and post it.
The address that's on my page, that one is to the shop itself.
I haven't posted the dispensary location.
Not yet. Yeah. page that one is to the shop itself i haven't posted the dispense relocation not yet yeah anybody in vegas is welcome to come by and check the store out and we do accept solana
i'll even give you a discount if you pay with that dude that's fire i um i have a couple people
that i'd like to to get to that and then also um i was at the bitcoin conference uh supporting and repping
clack life uh who's right underneath you there on the speaker stage um okay and her mystic her and
luminous uh her partner they um you know we we still have a lot of extra stuff i even still have
a couple duckies left of nfts that i'm trying give away. So it might be cool for me to come
down there with y'all and then be able to show off some other crypto world stuff while we're there.
Yeah, you're welcome to live stream. We're going to have a couple of live streamers, I'm sure,
because we know a lot of big and medium celebrities. And so it's just free content.
But if anybody wants to see more content, go to the link tree and Instagram, because for the first four years or so, we only used Instagram. So our main post and all of our tagged posts are where you're going to see all the collabs we've done. I mean, we've been around for a long time, but I definitely want you to come into the store and meet me, brother.
want you to come into the store and meet me brother no i i do too bro i i and i'll i'll
figure it out sooner than later here well even if maybe i'm gonna hit you up on the dms even if we
have to meet up somewhere else for the time being or somewhere closer in between so that we could
just chat at least yeah for sure and then like i said tomorrow is a perfect time to come hang out
eat relax yeah i think my uh i think my best friend uh moss i i think he said he's off
tomorrow so maybe we'll all come down we usually go down there for first fridays and stuff like
that too for the arts nights uh so so yeah i'd like to get get over there and support you tomorrow
so let's hit me up in the dms i'm gonna look for the flyer i don't think i forgot about you because
i was actually talking about you not last week because i was at the conference the whole week but the week before
on a space i was trying to remember who it was with the shop and that was in town and i remember
i have the address for the shop but i didn't remember what account so i have that on my mind
and um and yeah i look forward to meeting you hopefully tomorrow, honestly. I really think that I can make that work.
Perfect, bro.
I got an eighth for you, a loud pack safe, one of my strengths.
Oh, you can't tease me with goodies.
That's something that Stoner comes flying out the house for.
Well, if I can't report him, then I get that, right?
So if I fly over...
I mean, it is ladies' ladies night so first come first serve
no that's totally fair bro I'm so happy that you came up and dude thank you for being patient while
we like go through our normal uh day because that's kind of that is how I normally do it but
it is my bad uh for not remembering your account um that was what I was trying to remember the
other day so no it's all good I appreciate the space anyway. I'm having a really blast listening to all you guys
because the information applies to me
bringing crypto into my business.
I love it.
And that's the biggest thing.
I mean, it sounds like maybe LoudPax.
I don't know.
I don't know how the POSs are set up in store,
but we might need to have a D-Bros meeting.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, I can go over it i have
a the shopify connected to solana pay and helios that's what allows us to accept crypto
and then in in the store we have a square system that we can also accept crypto on
damn okay that's super cool awesome crypto stoner he'soneR. I love that system that you have.
Yeah, it's super easy.
It's like a couple years ago when I was doing research on Helios and SolanaPay,
it used to be that you had to do coding and all of that.
But now it's just plug and play.
You literally just download the applications and you're good to go.
I mean, you can program if you want to do more advanced things.
But for anybody with a Shopifyify it's plug and play except crypto bitcoin salami ethereum and some more
dude i'm excited i love your work yeah the art is freaking i love that i was looking at it i was
like that's so freaking cool i cannot wait to meet all y'all in person. Like I've talked to y'all so many times and I cannot wait.
So just give all y'all a big old hug.
Yeah.
Check out the Instagram for sure.
Cause that's where the majority of our content was before I discovered crypto Twitter and decided to move here.
i gotta double check and see if i'm following you because i have a i have a weed uh informational
I don't, I gotta double check and see if I'm following you.
instagram uh account that i run well i don't run anymore i think i ran out of things i wanted to
say so it hasn't been updated in like two years but i'll make sure i'm following you on there too
because it's another stoner account all right sweet, sweet. I am going to take off. I just wanted to get a chance to get in here and talk to
you and remind you, let you know about tomorrow, because I'm sure there's people. I mean, I have
people from the crypto community come from Arizona, California. There's going to be a couple guys here
from Phoenix, Arizona tomorrow as well, just to come check us out yeah that's badass dude and yeah
i'm gonna uh hit up my uh my buddy monster and see what he's got going on tomorrow but i think
i think i'm gonna end up being downtown with you so it sounds like a blast yeah and thanks for
coming up and hanging out and thanks uh and hit me up in the dms again shoot me a dm so i don't
forget to please all right i got you i appreciate you guys i'm gonna take off of course i just wanted to jump in real quick before you take off
uh we we have actually a friend in the family uh the community member who actually her house
burned down and she's out there in uh in i think she's about phoenix arizona and uh she definitely
needs to get uh you know we're looking for like a landlord and some other assistance for her if
you know anybody in the area who might have like a place for rent around that area or, you know, a landlord,
you know, we're trying to find a place for Shorty Tulls, her dad and her dog.
So they need to stay around that area because of the job.
But yeah.
I mean, just the rent isn't too bad out here.
here you can get two bedrooms apartments upstairs for a thousand bucks out here yeah a little bit a
You can get two bedrooms, apartments upstairs for a thousand bucks out here.
little intense because the house was underinsured so they're in kind of a tight position but yeah
yeah I throw it out there though if anyone in the out there doesn't have anything feel free to
contact me or you can go right to shorty tals um you know if you can help her out
anyway you know any kind of guidance or assistance just dm me as well appreciated yeah i can't see
who's speaking so dm me because i do have a couple um real estate buddies i have one that i was
actually trying to tell that there's ways to get into crypto with you know real estate so i definitely
need to talk to somebody that knows more about that if anybody here
Yeah, yeah prop prop keys is now doing it like you can put your deed on chain through a couple different
Platforms and stuff like that prop keys is one of them
Yeah, it's definitely wasted tokenized and you can tokenize any asset real estate just gonna be the next biggest thing for that
Yeah
They were up you sure you guys I'll talk to you soon yeah this is tricky
by the way yeah i'll dm you okay i got you followed awesome yo and thank you for stopping
big dog and we'll see you soon he's awesome his voice is like i could listen to that like all day
yeah no i i as soon as i heard the voice when he talked i was like oh i i do remember who loud
tax is because yeah he's got a very uh memorable and soothing voice i posted that up there tricky
for her um her uh go fund me and i was gonna ask her a question don't they have programs there for
people that have lost their houses?
I mean, yeah, I'm sure there's something local, but also it's like, yeah, it's just getting all that stuff to go through in a timely manner is also very difficult.
But yeah, I mean, yes. It's probably hard for her, too, to actually have to do it.
She has nothing right now.
I mean, she's literally everything burnt.
I opened that store, too. They finally,
I gave her all the information, so now
she has her own store, and people
could go in there and buy
products with her stuff on it to help
too, because she, I
cried so much,
and I was just blessed
and thanking God that their lives
were spared. Yeah.
I'm glad to see everyone made it out alive.
Everyone's safe, you know.
But yeah, I appreciate you posting that up top, you know.
Didn't mean to be a downer, but whenever I hear someone from Arizona,
I'm like, oh, hey, if you do happen to know anybody,
because you just never know, you know,
it's like that six degrees of separation thing.
And if you don't put it out there into the universe,
you're not going to get those answers.
So you just got to say it out there.
So yeah, I appreciate everyone.
Let's go.
Oh, yeah.
And that's a part of crypto, too.
We see it a lot, you know, is helping each other out.
People being there for each other.
You know, it's like when we see an account that we're all close to get rugged.
Say somebody gets like their their wallet hacked.
their wallet hacked. You know, I've seen so I've been a part of it, too. But so many people send
You know, I've seen so I've been a part of it, too.
sending NFTs and sending token supplies to like helps bolster somebody's portfolio back after that.
And, you know, it's the same thing in real life. We can do those same kind of things. We can either
donate or help and reach out or have connections and networks that end up being able to help a lot
of people in different states or different
countries. You know, it's crazy how the Internet works, especially with us in spaces. Nowadays,
we have people from all over the world that will come up on a stage and talk. And some of those
connections that are made, you never know who you're meeting or who you're speaking with. You
know, Big Man and I, we've spoken in spaces before that Heather has had us come into that were, you know, real world people.
They did not even know what Web3 was, you know, and they feel a difference when you're in the room with those kind of people.
They feel a difference in you, like your personality and energy.
And I've noticed that even in those moments, you'll have people be uh you know kinder to each
other or start to grow it is just cool to have the the all walks of life being able to cross
communicate uh to learn that we're all pretty much the same and we all just want the same things you
know which is some peace and and maybe to be loved a little bit you know that's why we share it here
big man i see you with your hand up yeah all. So you brought it up and I just I wanted to touch upon something to like give everyone
a little bit of perspective about it.
Like with the whole walking into that space, because like Ali Harper was in there.
She's like a senator for I think it's South Carolina or Tennessee, one of those places.
And like it's a very big political space.
It was anyway.
I don't know what's going on with
them if necessarily I haven't followed up too much I do talk to Heather still but um anyway long
story short when I went into that space to she asked me to come in to help educate people about
blockchain and how it could be like the funds could be tracked like you could use the flow of
money to track trafficking and
stuff like that and a few other things. But basically, they were trying to link like Pizzagate
to Bitcoin. And we were talking about how, you know, people have been using paintings for years
to just evade the taxes and how fiat is easier to evade, so to say say than it than crypto really is so by you know and promoting some safety
around it and like but the the whole premise when it started dude it was very like i don't want to
say anti-bitcoin but it was so much lack of knowledge that there was fear around that right
and coming in even with just basic knowledge and like kind of explaining what the public ledger is and you know not even going into the whole it's an encrypted message yada yada but just
explaining it cannot be changed you know and then you know some of them ask why and then you can
kind of explain it a little bit but even just that one piece or like explaining what a wallet is or
how you can see where the money goes it It settles some minds. And then instead of
becoming offensive towards it, they become more curious, right? And they want to understand it
more. And they realize that. And I kind of explained to them that it's technology. You
know, my parents taught me when I was growing up, I shouldn't give my name, my age, where I was. I
shouldn't tell people what the weather was like outside because they can look it up on satellite and find out what the weather's like globally and find out
where I am. Like to that degree, that's how paranoid my parents were. You know, I grew up
in the early 2000s. I was born in 95. So it was different times. Things have changed a lot since
then, but they've also changed like in both directions like we have to have more education
and i just everything we're doing man it all resonates with that but yeah that space was
crazy and i love doing it and i love to go there i want to go to one of those bitcoin conferences
dude because i feel like me and stoner can get up on a stage and talk at one of those bitcoin
conferences like if that's really what it's like and not that many people know, you know?
Bro, 100%, dude.
You and I are going...
I said this at the Bitcoin conference
to many people I spoke with.
And I was like,
because people were asking me questions
as I would be chit-chatting with them.
Like, what is this project?
And I quack life on the Solana ecosystem,
this and that.
They just deer in the headlights type thing. So I was I was able to talk a lot about crypto and like the knowledge of it.
And it made me realize at the conference. I want to be one of these people that comes up on stage
and explains because here's something else. They never once in the Bitcoin conference on any panel
I was a part
of. Now, that's not to say that there weren't breakout rooms with small meetings that had it,
but there was no security talk. There was no safety talk. There was no scam talk. Everything's
just talking about Bitcoin and what it is and how it what the vehicle that it is, the asset reserve
capability, the percentages of gain, the outpace of inflation.
So there was a lot of information of crypto. But one of the things that I realized is no one
explains how wallets work, how to set up a wallet, what a wallet is, what is a cold, warm, lukewarm,
lukemedium, cool, warm, hot wallet, all these different wallets that we have, you know, or the way that
we may set up some of our structures. And I know some of y'all wild out here with these lukewarm
wallets. That's why I said it. And, you know, it's so it's crazy to see that no one's speaking
about these things, about the safety part of all of this. And I think big man, 100%, you, me,
Justin, people like that, like, especially, you know, people that understand
the security side to a higher level or a high understanding, it needs to be shared. I think
it would be amazing to have people like Justin on a Bitcoin conference panel with us where we could
sit there and say, hey, this is how you start a wallet if
you want to own Bitcoin. And this is how you keep your Bitcoin safe. You know, I never once heard
not your keys, not your castle at the Bitcoin conference about holding on an exchange or
buying through Coinbase or buying through Binance or Kraken. They tell you to go to these central
exchanges to go exchange your Bitcoin, but they don't explain that you can actually hold your own money and you can have the keys to your own castle.
And we talk about that here because we understand the decentralization part of crypto.
But we also need to tell people this in these conferences.
And maybe maybe Bitcoin doesn't want to say that because a lot of people are political and things like that.
So it's not being said as much in those worlds because they want you on a central exchange.
But, you know, at some point in these conferences, I think it's going to come a time where we're going to be the people on stage.
We're going to be explaining how to keep yourself safe, how to centralize yourself or decentralize yourself from a system, but centralize own system in your own world all of those different kind of things um we need to see more of that so
100 it's funny that big man said like one day we're gonna be up there talking yes 100 and we
need to be because the some of the right information isn't being said yet dude so just real quick i
think it would be so cool to have either like an onboarding venue
right and then like within that onboarding venue you can have a branch off where it's like here
this is a test net onboard but we're gonna show you on test net why it's so important to follow
those procedures we just told you over there to follow right and? And then like, be like, look, now, now I got your seed phrase.
And that's just a silly example, right? But like, oh, well, here on this mobile test net that we
have set up for you, sign up with your wallet on this phone, and then go connect it to this website,
go pick through these websites and find one that you like, and click on it, just browse through,
you know, and then it showed the significance of having to do your own research
in a safer environment, like with a quote, a test net with planned rugs on it and stuff like that.
So you can simulate how the environment can be used maliciously, but then also say,
you know, this is why we have this like protocol in place to protect yourself. And I think that
would be an awesome type, like a little booth to have set up or like a venue and you're just onboarding people and teaching people like that that'd be pretty
sick dude you just gave me a genius idea and then i'm gonna let tricky go because his hand's gonna
fall off but what if for conferences and shows like this you have an onboarding tent and it's
the first thing you go through after check-in and and it's to ask you a simple question. Do you hold crypto or no?
Yes.
Great.
Which wallets do you use?
Cool.
As soon as they say wallets, they walk in, they get to go to be part of the conference.
If they have not, then there's a small onboarding.
These are a few different wallets you can use that are trusted that people use now.
These are the blockchains that they hold.
Let's help you get this set up real quick and then have that person boop and, you know, just kind of dip out into the thing.
But now they have a wallet. And then because how conventions and conferences for crypto should be
working, and I think some of them do, Bitcoin conference, definitely not. But there should be
like more not airdrops kind of things or different kind of giveaways going on at these conferences and stuff.
And you would be able to have everyone's phone with a QR real quick and have maybe a, you know, you walk up to a booth and there's a scanner.
You scan your QR for your wallet and then that booth has an automated system to send you your little NFT or giveaway.
you your little NFT or giveaway. Maybe people start doing collections for the conferences or
things that they're going to be at so that you have a very small collection that was maybe a
free mint. But that free mint showed that kind of like the PO apps, but you could do it as a project
directly where you have a little thing and people scan that QR. They get a free NFT while they're
at the convention. It helps to promote and build more of your ecosystem. There's just so many ways
to do it. But you need to do that properly. Almost. You need to have a way to onboard everyone
that does not know what crypto is. So many people go to conventions, especially in crypto, from what
I'm seeing, that don't know about crypto. They're just trying to figure it out. So they're going to
these places. So if we had a way to teach people how to be safe, maybe a little pamphlet that you get after you set up a wallet that says, don't click links that are not this, airdrops that are not, you know, that you're not waiting for or usually scams, little things like that.
It would be super cool, big man.
I think you're onto something big with an onboarding pre-screen before you go into a crypto show.
Yes, do it.
Go take it to Bitcoin Conference and all these other conferences stand outside of walmart you know what i'm saying like they'd be selling
cookies i would be like get your chance of winning a free mint or like win 35 bucks right outside a
grocery store you know what i mean and then you set them into one of the raffle type deals that
we do here download this wallet or, not really like that, right?
Because you want them to be educated, too.
You have to spend a little bit of time actually educating them.
They can't just blindly be downloading an app that you do.
That defeats the whole principle, right?
Like, they don't know me through a hole in the wall.
But that same idea.
Sorry, I want to let Tricky go and everybody chime in.
But big idea.
I like it.
I love the conversation, though.
It's got me, like, going down this rabbit hole of all these different things.
I went to a couple of these conferences, and you're right.
They don't have a whole lot of focusing on the onboarding process.
It's like they're there just pro-Bitcoin or whatever,
and they just don't want to talk about the negatives necessarily.
They focus on what they're building or the the positive aspects and that's pretty much it uh but i i mean i often will
go through like i was in a space the other day and he's like how do we you know explain crypto to
normies right and we're talking about different options and i'm like well okay since this is
basically an onboarding space let me just make sure everybody knows make sure you're web 2 right
first before you web 3 like you got a web 2 properly first. Are you safe? Do you have an active antivirus and malware with active detection for ground zero attacks?
Or are you just hoping that you're not going to click on the wrong thing?
What's the mission?
We're actually doing all these processes first.
doing all these processes first.
And we need that at Bitcoin conferences too.
And we need that at Bitcoin conferences too.
But the reason I originally raised my hand
was because we were talking about that.
And you never know who you're going to meet at these places,
but it's been really awesome to see the growth.
I went to NFT NYC last time,
and I was hanging out with Charlie from Catcoin.
And he's gotten in with this whole other group,
but it started with that conference.
He met some people who were in SpaceX.
Next thing you know, he's in a boardroom meeting, basically, with upper-level executives.
Never would have thought that he was going to do that when he even showed up to the conference.
It just kind of organically happened.
So I just joined him in space a minute ago, and there's all these big people from Bitcoin and from SpaceX and stuff like that.
There's like a lot of people that with really like significant presence in Web3 and these other mainstream industries.
And like that all came about like organically by going to these things.
So like when you become an adult, you get into any industry, you realize the world is small and the people who are actually out here building are fairly limited.
So when you get into anything and you become knowledgeable and start putting yourself out there, you very quickly get really well connected.
It's just a matter of persistence and being out there.
So going to these conferences is a huge part of that.
So I could totally see you guys teaching know teaching some some safety and some classes and
stuff like that during one of these conferences yeah i i definitely want to have more of the
friends going and and see you guys from the audience that would be awesome oh yeah yeah i
need to get some more cameos next to sailor you know i'm saying right for those of you that
weren't there friday rick found the perfect screenshot of me looking back at someone that was heckling Michael Saylor a little bit.
I looked back at him and it was like, or her, sorry.
Apparently it went viral too.
Bitcoin, Bitcoin, Bitcoin. Where's it going? It's going up. Where's it going?
It's Bitcoin, Bitcoin. It's going up.
And she started talking
again and he just left and i was like dude leave him alone he doesn't want to be talked to
uh but no dude it's so cool to be in those in those real life plays i i enjoy uh being in those
kind of situations like spaces is close to that kind of fulfillment for me to be able to like sit
here and chat with everyone and hang out and build these friendships and see these projects keep growing but at the end of the day too
it's it's different still than being in person like me and big man getting all freaking hyped
up about something and then high-fiving the shit out of each other until our hands hurt and being
like oh god my hand hurts you, it's there's a difference.
And so it's really cool.
And, you know, honestly, I foresee a lot of us in the world that we're in now being in
a larger presence in Web3 as Web3 continues to grow.
And I think a lot of us are going to be constantly traveling and meeting up with each other again at different places,
because we are going to be the voices and the projects that are here in the next cycle and
the next cycle and the next cycle, we're going to keep going. And so, you know, it's so funny,
sometimes each each bull run, to me, almost kind of feels like everyone thinks it's the last thing,
like, oh, shit, we're going to make a lot of money.
And then it just is probably going to disappear.
I don't know.
You know, it's like people never see that, like that forward vision of how many more bull runs or cycles do we have,
which is a lot, especially because Bitcoin isn't your only token or it's not your only asset that's there.
There's tons of other assets and utility and things that are coming.
So it's just it's just amazing to to see where we're at now, to see that we're some of us are getting to be into this IRL now and that we're realizing that, you know, it's funny if you really play it back.
It was meme coins.
NFT is art. Stuff like that. Right. It was always like investment, make money memes.
But now it's utility use case.
And we started to realize we can't just have meme coins.
We can't just have NFTs. We need staking. We need ROI.
We need some kind of utilities, you know, whether Decentral Bros,
you know, a POS or whether it be a security system. The bar has been raised. Yes. And whether
it be the security system that lets you in or out of a building, we understood that you need use
case and utility, which is great because we've been building that. But now I think we're at a
new level of adaption that needs to be had and evolution of Web3, which is we understand the use case utility now. We're not just having fun throwing money around. We're actually using it to build things like DEADS with wanting to do we're going to be doing a token. We're going to be we have game devs ready to help us with a game.
us with a game. So in game devs, by the by the way, that have worked on AAA titles and with,
you know, large corporations. So, you know, having the understanding the use case and utility was so
important for everyone. But then we realized, well, who do we market this to? Who do we give
this to now? We're coding, we're making these things. Oh, we need the real world to adopt this.
We need the real world to want these utilities and use cases and realize that they're a better,
uh, vehicle of making your own money or a better vehicle of, uh, making things more
easy in whether it be medical law firms, things like that.
All of this stuff comes back to the new adaption we need to make
is real world. We understand what was built. We understand what we need. But now we have to get
the masses and the rest of the world, especially IRL, to see what we're doing, see why it works,
and see how we're going to go forward from here. So I think that's just what we're noticing. And
we're seeing it quick. A lot of us are like, yo, we need to do IRL stuff. You know, Quack Life had said it really
first this morning, we need to do more, we want to do more IRL stuff, whether it be going to the
university, going to the farmers markets. Those things are how now we know enough, and we've
learned enough to be confident to go into the streets and speak to
people about crypto and know that we're leading them to a better place in the financial world or
in the economic world. Our main job at that point is just teaching people don't go follow the
liquidity, pump funds, all that. But, you know, a lot of that comes into just a part of introducing
some of the Web3. But yeah, you know, I just wanted to comes into just a part of introducing some of the Web3.
But yeah, you know, I just wanted to really kind of extend that of the IRL stuff.
We're just in a new phase of crypto where we've realized we know what we're building.
Now we need to talk to the people that need it.
And it's like you are so close. If you're in this room, you are so close to being at these events and being on stage.
You don't realize it until it happens. But trust me when I say you are really close. You go to
your first one and within a year, year and a half, you could be on stage. Simple as that.
This industry, it goes very, very quickly. And the real ones don't stick around in the public space for very long because they either get eaten up by a large corporation or they're doing their own thing or people just don't last long also, right?
But you guys are – if you're here, you are so close to that amazing opportunity.
A hundred percent.
And yo, Moondi and – It all starts with the IRL thing. It all starts that way my bad trick you cut it's all i cut out but i just
wanted to come back to say that it all starts with the irl things and like you guys are right
on the cusp already so just keep going stay positive man try to make it make it work put
it out in the universe it'll happen 100 manifestation wishing they're both very powerful things if you believe and know
how to set yourself up for it with that said moonbeam i'm gonna let you go in a second uh
but crow i know you had your hand up and you had come up on stage a while ago and i haven't heard
from you yet i wanted to say good morning to you or afternoon depending on where you are
and if you'd like to have the floor for a moment to say hello, feel free.
Good afternoon, Crypto.
Thank you so much.
I really appreciate you guys having me up.
Intelligence Stoner, good to see you, brother.
As always, Tricky, you as well, sir.
Yeah, man, everything that you just kind of said, you know, for case in point,
you know, games, so GameFi, TradFi, RWAs, all of that, you know, that's what Moonsters is.
That's what we go ahead and embody is, you know, developing on multi-different facets.
We have a play-to-earn game called the Flappy Moon Game.
We have RWAs, which is, you know, the renegade stage bus that we go to IRL events.
Then we have the biggest monster truck on the east coast uh that
we are bringing to mud festivals things of that nature to go ahead and generate income and onboard
new users um so and then also to get an ROI on you know your money that you're you're putting in
actually through mrox our our token it it utilizes m3 m3 staking. So through Meteora, we
you get to go ahead and stake your moon rocks in earn income
while you go ahead and let your money sit. You know, we're the
first high quality animated 404 project on any blockchain. So
we're doing it the right way, even if it takes the long way,
because we see the
utility, we see what people are wanting and what they continue to speak about. So we're just trying
to build that we have about 8000 in our community so far, and we're only grown exponentially, we
have a lot of different partnerships, like DLMM tools to go ahead and farm possibly the biggest
airdrop crypto has ever seen through Meteora. So we have a partnership with Soul Decoders for that, for some more utility,
to earn some more income, more hands-free, doing things the right way.
So if you guys haven't checked it out, definitely try and check it out.
You know, do your own research.
But, you know, I think you guys would really enjoy what you see.
Yo, I love that.
Thank you for also keeping that concise, short, and just all the meaty info.
And I do know Moonsters.
I've been around watching you guys, and I think Moonboy had kind of showed me you guys one day when I was chatting.
But yeah, no, I love what you guys one day when I was chatting and but yeah, no, I,
I love what you guys are doing. And honestly, you know,
as you guys have been pushing and stuff and,
and seeing you guys around the timelines it's down the road here,
you know,
it might be beneficial for Green pill collective and Moonsters to chat um in the in the near future and see about
if you guys would want to be a part of a collective uh we obviously for that and and we're
we're doing a we're tidying a couple things up on our end on the websites and stuff before we kind
of re-push more vetting so we're taking kind of a couple week break here just to slow that down. But once we get everything reintroduced and the vetting back in here,
you know, we vet out projects, we keep people safe in that sense,
but we'd love to check you guys out.
Obviously you guys have been around for a while now.
A lot of us already do know you guys.
I think even some of us have some Moonsters.
So yeah, I think it'd be
really cool. Yeah, that would be fantastic. Crypto. We're always looking to go ahead and,
you know, get involved with people and new avenues and, you know, it's about spreading
that awareness, you know, and we look at the bigger global picture of, you know, mass adoption
and onboarding, you know, it's, uh,
it's all about bringing people in because it's going to grow everybody's bags, not just one
particular project. So, you know, stay away, educate you a little bit, stay away from the
fucking rug pulls, stay away from a lot of the meme coins, invest in, you know, solid projects.
We've been around three years. We haven't taken a single dollar from any of our community members, nothing like that. We have a merch store. We have all that to generate,
you know, revenue. I mean, these are the things that we do to help uplift you guys.
And, you know, we're solid, man. We're solid. We're sitting at, you know, a 4 million floor
with a high of 11.2 mil, 11.4 mil. our conversion pool hasn't even went live yet so these are all people that
are holding and staking and you know once the conversion pool goes live on friday i think we're
going to see a hell of a run up and i think a lot of people are going to go ahead and stake a lot of
their tokens so i love it bro i love it a lot and, I just followed you. Will you DM me so we can keep you on, so I can keep you in my radar of getting in touch with?
Of course, brother. Of course. And I'm the lead business and growth development manager for Moonsters. So perfect that we're connecting.
So, yeah, bro. No, you know, and I've honestly I see Munster's spaces and I've been in I think I've been in maybe two.
I'm just always running around so much. I have a hard time running into two different spaces sometimes.
But, yeah, I'd love to hop into one of your guys's spaces.
And, you know, universe always works in the way it's supposed to work.
So the timing is always on the perfect time.
And so I think they you know obviously you
and i are chat i took last week off too so it's a perfect day you know for you to be here because
last week i wouldn't have been here i was at the conference um so it's a pleasure to have uh met
you and been able to chat and uh get you know i didn't even know about a couple of the moonsters
uh things you guys are doing like i didn't know about the game and I didn't know about the RWA. So I'll be interested to chat with you, especially on the back end of just because I usually have a
meeting with founders or whoever's a representative. So it'll be nice to just sit and ask you some
questions and really dig deep into what you guys are doing.
Oh, yeah, brother. No, I look forward to that. And, you know, thank you for the time today.
I really appreciate it. And we'll be talking here soon.
Awesome.
Sounds good, bro.
Moonbeam, I know that you had your hand up earlier.
So if you'd still like to hop in, please do.
Oh, Ministers, I love you.
And a lot of it is because you are a Minster.
I love you guys.
I love your work.
I did a couple of videos for it.
You guys are so cool.
I was going to touch back on the Bitcoin conference.
I would love to be there. And that is exactly the idea that came into my head. An onboarding conference, like where everybody would go in there and learn exactly how to do everything. Y'all are on point with that because a lot of people be able to help women understand that it's okay for us to be here.
You know, there's not a lot of us, but, you know, we don't mind others coming in and learning, you know, it's like, but yeah, I think an onboarding thing.
I think that is definitely the ticket.
Yep.
It's all about making it easy um you know
uh genius pothead myself tricky rick we talk about that a lot on fridays on the lives about
you know um just how to do it how to onboard or why we need these things and you know we can we
only have so many people even if we have 3 000 people show up on our Friday live, it's only 3000 people. There's a
over 8 billion people in the world. So, you know, and, you know, as much as it might seem silly
for a lot of us, if there was a convention that was just for onboarding crypto, you know,
there's so many people that don't know about crypto. It might almost be a good idea to have a whole convention that's three days long.
That's just like, you know, it's only one day.
You don't go for all three days.
Like, you know, there would be just tons of people for one day.
And it's just a bunch of onboarding process and doing things properly.
And then it goes right to the next day.
It's a bunch of new people again,
you know, things like that. And I don't think that it's necessarily ready to happen just yet
because there's still not like, you know, billions of people looking at crypto. But once that once
everyone needs it or is like, how do I do this? There almost needs to be like a conference or
convention ready to go where it's like an onboarding. And obviously, though, that's IRL. We still can have a lot of online utility. I know
that we do have people in the Green Pill like Rocketverse and other families in our Green Pill
that do focus on teaching people the onboarding. So having it online is important as well.
But it's also important for us to be able to do it in that real world setting.
A lot of people are hands on and they need to have someone there with them.
It just makes it easier.
It's just like when I'm doing IT.
If I tell someone I do something over the phone, it is much harder for them to do it over the phone than if I just went over to their desk or their house and sat down with them and said, this is the option you need to click and do it for
them, but then have them see it. It's just very different and everyone learns different. So having
an IRL one would be awesome. Big man. Yo, no, that just, it sparked more ideas, man. You know
what I'm saying? So what you do is you do that IRL onboarding event locally in smaller rural areas
first, right? And then you go to the outside
towns and you do what I was saying before, and you set up shop outside of local grocery stores,
you find up some type of permissions that you can do that and figure it out. And then what you do
is you have some people now that you're in a more generally populated area that also has a chance
for the people in the rural area to make it through. You'll see like you'll have a chance for organic interactions where people who are already
onboarded to crypto to see your thing like, hey, if you have this wallet and you sign
up for this or whatever, you know, you spin this wheel and get like a $10 Walmart gift
card or whatever it is, wherever, whatever store you're standing outside of.
Right.
You offer some type of sponsorship for the store as well.
So you can even do this with mom and pop shops too, which would be wicked cool.
And then you have that natural moment that creates like, hey, that person already had this.
I'm behind the wheel. You know, it's almost that like, I guess it's FOMO technically,
I guess, right? Because it's fear of missing out, but it's IRL and you're not creating hype around it. You're creating like showcasing utility and use case first and then being like, if it's something you're interested in here, you can download this or here's the resources.
And then take your time, walk around the store, come back out.
And when you're done looking at it, let me know what you think.
And you can spin the wheel and get one of these gift cards or whatever it is, you know.
And I think it was just a multi-step process dude and i think we should
come up with some sort of curriculum a basic standard of how we could teach that it might
be different for everybody right but i think it's a it's a really cool idea man bringing that
basic set of knowledge that surface level knowledge out towards people and allowing
them to have the resources kind of like what dbros did for us in the class but on a the scale before that right like we we
took the next step that would this would be a scale just to onboard and i dude i i love it i
love the way this all went in the talk that we're having about it it. I'm sorry. My phone was like not unmuting again. Yeah, I love that idea. And I
think that it's just going to be us fine tuning a, you know, the, the IRL experience, you know,
you know and i honestly i think going to these irl things especially like i like you were saying
and I honestly, I think going to these IRL things, especially like I like you were saying,
dent in a population dense area uh like vegas here especially uh being able to go to these
events or being able to go downtown downtown in vegas is like a tourist trap of the world
you know downtown fremont is always super packed and so it'd be you know it'd be really cool
especially because like i said, from just
from that conference, I still have leftover stuff for CLAC. So I want to give this to people and I
don't want to like give it to people that aren't going to want it or understand it. I want to give
these things to people that either interested in crypto, understand crypto or want to know more
about it. But being able to go to these events, you can help people, right? If I talk to someone like, yo, let me give you a ducky. And they're like, what? Yeah, I got an NFT
duck. How do I get that? And, you know, that just opens you up for an opportunity to be like,
oh, well, and I'm just using Phantom as an example. I don't think it's the best wallet to have.
But download a Phantom wallet, teach them about the seed phrase. Don't look at their seed phrase.
You know, don't make them feel unsafe already.
If you like, you know, let them understand as you're explaining stuff like the severity of the seed phrase, what that means, how they should house it.
And you just kind of give that like you were giving it to one of your friends that asked you about crypto.
You just kind of teach them how to give
them the right direction and you can set them up with a wallet and then you can send them their
first NFT. I actually was able to give someone their first NFT while I was at the Bitcoin
conference and help them set up a wallet to receive it. And they were super receptive to
the seed phrase understanding. And they're like, yeah, I'm going to go straight home and write this down and make sure that, you know,
and it was just cool to see someone take it serious,
be excited.
They're like, I got a duck.
Like, look at this duck.
You know, it's just cool to really be at a point
in crypto, all of us here,
where we can help to explain to somebody
what crypto is or onboard them onto a wallet and
have them have their first token or their first NFT. It's just really neat. And, you know,
it just leads into, again, a lot of us are going to be the teachers. A lot of us are going to be
the people that have been here the longest or had the most seat time in crypto. And so we just have a way of explaining or understanding things that somebody new won't
understand.
Even for those of you that do swing trading or short trades, you guys understand how to
trade.
But when you first traded, I'm sure you guys lost or got stomped out of many plays before
you realized like what little things and it's always minute
things right so it's just really cool uh again i know we've been talking about it a lot today but
the community is just so important and after last week being in that irl world seeing how many people
are really still not knowing what this is um it just showed me that we have a very important job in web three to help people to onboard and be able to trade
and be a part of this safely and know what they're doing so it's super cool it's very thankful for
everyone that's here today I am going to start to wrap it up I have another space with Unify
that I have this one at the right time I I've confirmed it's four times now. 5.30 EST, Eastern Time, 5.30, which is 2.30 for me,
because that's what I keep doing.
I keep reading Eastern Times and putting PST in my calendar.
So I have stopped doing that.
But we're going to be hanging out with Unify.
Big man, I know that you said you had another space at 5 EST.
Is it something that anyone here might be interested in hearing about?
Since that'll be a lull before mine?
I mean, yeah, they might be.
So my uncle Matt, he is writing a book.
It's called The Product of My Environment.
And it's about his childhood and some of his life experiences.
But, you know, I told him that I make the
special guest kind of do that thing. Cause he's my special guest and I'm treating them
just like I would anybody else. Um, and you know, so I kind of wanted to make the space a little
bit about him, but he, he threw it back at me and was like, well, I want to get to know like
what you're doing over here and stuff. And I was like, yeah, of course we'll definitely dive into
some of the stuff we're doing.
And he wants to ask me a couple questions, too.
And last night we did the first episode of Conversations with Corey.
And, you know, if you don't know, now you know that's who I am.
My name's Corey.
I'm out of a little town in Rhode Island, you know.
And we're just kind of giving a little backstory about myself as a person and beyond the PFP,
who we really are, you know.
And that's a
segment that i'm going to continue to do my aunt kind of came up with the name and i really liked
it so i was that's pretty cool and uh yeah that's pretty much it you know it's we're going to talk
about some feelings some life maybe a little politics i don't know if you're interested in
that sort of thing definitely stop on through but it's a little bit it's a little break from
the solid web3 stuff.
I will definitely say that.
Like, well, obviously, I'm a Web3 enthusiast, and he wants to know what I'm doing.
But I'm trying to tear a little bit away from that for this particular space and those conversations with Corey as well.
But, yeah.
You want it to be more personable, like more person-to-person interaction rather than an agenda interaction or a topic interaction.
Yeah, exactly.
And don't get me wrong.
I always feel like coffee in a joint is more like that anyway, right?
But this is kind of out of my normal time frame because he gets out of work later.
So I had to do it at a different time for his convenience and stuff.
And we're supposed to do a Tuesday.
I misscheduled him kind of did the same thing. I scheduled it for an hour later than he was
available for. And yeah, anyway. Um, so it's probably something I'm going to continue. The
conversations with Corey is something I'm definitely going to do. He's my first guest,
but you know, maybe we'll do other things too. Like, you know, maybe we'll do conversations
with Travis or like whatever, you know, and Travis and Corey.
That's how I do it.
I kind of put the person's name and then I put my name or phonetically, however it sounds.
But, yeah, dude, like you said, more personable and just real vibes right there, kind of real life.
And we've all been through some hard shit.
I'm okay with doing that stuff on recorded spaces,
I'm OK with doing that stuff on recorded spaces.
but if somebody ahead of time tells me that,
I will definitely not record the space
if they want to share more intimate details and stuff.
I'm okay with people knowing the littlest details of my life.
If you want to go back and listen to an hour space
or a three-hour long space and find out these little things,
go ahead.
More power to you.
You just care, I guess, right?
A lot.
You care a lot.
Whether it's hateful karen or loving karen
you must be karen so and depending on what kind of karen you are we might not like you karen no
just that's exactly why i said it like that too dude i dude i wasn't sure but i loved it um well
so we got seven minutes i'm gonna do a little wrap up here, which is just going to be about the Solana Deads.
I'm going to do a little full just re-explanation of prices and stuff so you guys know.
And then we're going to be talking about Solana Deads again in Unify in their space a little bit later.
Super excited to hang out with them.
But I also want to give a shout out
because he came in uh while we've been in the space and chatting but shout out to pup down there
pup is an absolute legend uh him bringing this art and solana deads to life for us and bringing
levels his initial vision which it changed so much and as we get farther into the project here i'm
sure we'll got we'll show you guys where we started uh our concept versus the the end result
and what pup was able to bring to us for solana dead so just want to give some special flowers
to pup today because you know you've worked on so many different projects you've had so many
different styles on everything you've done and it's been just super cool to get to know you better to
interact with you uh and to see you just bring another vision to life and i you know a little
little uh side alpha we might have some more pup stuff in the future on some other stuff i don't
know just saying uh but uh so just a shout out to Pup down there for really
being able to bring the deads to life with us and, you know, be there and just, you know, he also
takes criticism so well. Obviously, no one is ever rude in how we would approach Pup. Who can be rude
to Pup? But like to be able to just sit and talk about ideas or things we might want a little bit
different. Some people don't take that well. My wife is one of those people that takes it very well
just like pup can take constructive criticism and it betters her art or her work but there's a lot
of people I've met over years that they either you take it the way I give it to you or you hit
the high road kind of mentality so it's's just so cool to work with Pup.
I'm excited for everyone to start holding his art
in their hands of what we're building,
which again, I just posted at the top,
but less than 48 hours, y'all.
10 a.m. EST on Friday.
That is when the OG and whitelist goes live.
So make sure you guys are there in the morning.
I will have a space.
As soon as I close this one down,
I'm going to make the link for Friday.
So I'm going to get that fired off to you guys
as soon as we're done here.
But very excited for Friday.
It's going to be such a fun day.
If you guys are on the OG,
remember that you get first dib or first access.
You're going to have four max per wallet, but your mint is going to be 0.333
Solana on launch day. And if you're on the white list after the OG, you're going to get 0.444
as your price. That is going to be a max of four per year wallet. And then we go live with the
public. And as soon as the public goes live, it is point five five five for everyone.
And there is no limits on how many you can mint or get per wallet.
So that's just going to be how much people want to support us.
We do have three thousand three hundred and thirty three in that collection.
It's a large collection now.
It was it was a little bit smaller and it was going to be more expensive prior.
I really love the way that we transition this into more
with a little bit of a cheaper price.
And then as we tie this into staking and rewards on a token
and get the game going down the road here,
all of this stuff is going to tie together.
It's going to be a lot of fun.
We're thankful for the journey we've had so far.
And I'm just so grateful to everyone
that shows love for every green project, green projects,
green bill collective project. I'm so thankful for all of it.
You know, Solana deads rogue levels and I, and we've seen, you know,
what, what the community love does.
And it's just so cool to have something that's also a part of that now
and a part of just an amazing community of supporters and love from all y'all. So I
appreciate you guys hearing and listening to the Solana's dead chats. If you guys haven't checked
out the website yet, make sure you also check out the website. Rogue put some love, sweat and tears
into that. Speaking of love, sweat and tears, Rogue tears rogue and levels both their eyes are still not uncrossed in case you guys were wondering um the amount of traits and nft looking they've
i checked in with rogue last night asked him if he's uncrossed side he said absolutely not
um so hopefully those two can get a break from a screen in the next three to four days after we
start the launch here um but it's just been an absolute grind, but a good one, a fun one.
And I'm just thankful for you guys
being here for our journey.
So again, thank you guys
for all the love and support.
And with that,
I'm also going to start closing up the floor.
Big man's hands up first.
So he gets to go first.
But whoever would like to say some goodbyes,
let us know anything else
that's going on in your world
that's on stage.
I'd love to hear from everyone before we head out.
So take it away, big man.
Yo, so Pup jumped in and that reminded me.
Pup, send me your base ETH address.
Also, CryptoSoner, you send me your base ETH address.
I got a little something-something for both of y'all.
I did a little switcheroonie with the Mad Queen, you know what I'm saying?
So I got a little homage to Pup to give.
And then, Crypto, I know you was mad busy and I minted my first one from my collection. So I got the big man. I'm going to send you the big man one and I'm going to send a corresponding Pup
to Pup, you know what I'm saying? It's just the justice of it all. It's kind of cool. Everybody
who minted one of those kind of got a little something from that chain or like from their
project coincidentally, you know what I mean? It wasn't like everybody knew or i don't know anyway it was pretty sweet um amazing
space as always you know much love gpc build let's do it we've been touching base about a lot
of cool things let's touch some grass together and let's just keep on doing it man
yo thank you, bro.
And I'll send you an address.
I'm super excited.
Speaking of, are you still minting?
Like, is yours?
All right.
So the first collection that I did was a 20-piece collection because I was going to do a bigger collection, but the metadata and everything.
And then I realized it's going to mint in the order that I put it in. and I had to go back and do some things a couple times you know triple check and
double check and whatever so I only did 20 for the first one there's a token gated page though
with a little sneak peek preview of the next collection that's coming out with Sox collab and
myself and then we have a few little sneak peeks of some potential collections and you already know
about one of those we've talked about it I was talking about maybe doing it on solana but we we pushed it over
now i got some new skills bring it over there you know and it's gonna work out good but we're gonna
do this one with socks um so yeah you'll both be able to go check out that token gated page too and
see what the the next collection is gonna be and check it out the little art concept that i got
over there and yeah dude it's good
stuff I'm loving it man we're gonna do so many big collabs um I'm talking with juicy man
they're talking to juicy juicy nugs is my boy I'm talking to a lot of people I keep it on DL
because uh that whole under under promise over deliver type of deal you know I couldn't under
promise on socks because there's just it's so big.
You know what I mean?
It's coming hard and it's coming fast, dude.
There's a lot of foundational movement going on right now that I see.
That's amazing.
And yeah, I'm going to end it right there.
I know we're getting close to that.
Much love on the space.
I appreciate you.
Thank you, bro.
Bro, you don't have to shorten it.
You're good.
You're spitting out here. I'm excited. I'm excited. You're speaking with Thank you, bro. Bro, you don't have to shorten it. You're good. You're spitting out here.
I'm excited.
I'm excited you're speaking with Juicy, bro.
Now I got to go talk to Juicy and see if he'll leak anything.
I'm just kidding.
No, we ain't quite there yet, but we know it's in the works,
and he knows that big man's got his back, too.
You know what I'm saying?
So we're cooking.
That's for sure.
I'm excited to see whatever it ends up being.
I love Juicy and your energy, so the two of you working together. cooking that's for sure i'm excited to see whatever it ends up being uh i love juicy and
your guys your your energy so um the two of you working together obviously is exciting uh so super
excited to hear about that um super excited to about the mint about the class being a success
for you guys um super awesome bro um yeah dude i'm gonna shoot it over to
who's going first justin are you there
i was trying to catch him off guard he's probably feverishly coding um
if he wants to say bye before we go justin know that you can in a minute i am gonna go to
mystic from quack life all right y'all well I
just wanted to really show some flowers to everybody up here for showing up and staying
consistent and you know just really doing what it is that you believe in and what you love I know
times can get tough and times can be joyous and so just you know uh yeah mad props to everybody
who can you know kind of weather those different storms and those different days and so just you know uh yeah mad props to everybody who can you know kind of weather those
different storms and those different days and and just stick with it you know so i yeah just
mad flowers to everybody and uh yeah look forward to continuing to build over here at quack so just
stay tuned on our page turn on those noties and uh yeah hop over to telegram if you kind of want
the earlier insight or if you want to direct
connect with anybody on the team we are here and i will definitely be back with information on how
irl crypto outreach goes so much love to all y'all and i'll talk for now or quack quack for now
quack quack ta-ta um you know it's gonna be so cool uh you know obviously you can't talk about
alpha details yet but i will say also i can confirm that quack is cooking we're doing some cooking in
the back figuring out you know just it's always about where we're gonna go right and as you set
goals those goals get met so you always have to know that next where you want to go. So it's exciting to see you guys continually building. So I'm hyped for to see how your
guys's IRL stuff starts to go. You know, a lot of its energy, the kind of energy you bring to
the conversation. So you know, people like Mystic and Luminous from Clack Life, I know that their
energy is genuine, big man's energy is genuine, Tricky's energy is genuine. Those kind of things.
And so our interactions with people are going to be pretty good.
You know, it's how you approach someone, even if someone is in a bad mood or is typically
a little standoffish.
I've never had an issue with that kind of person when I deliver a calm, peaceful person
from myself to that person and so like even in those moments
it's also really good to know that there's people with good energy um that are actually the ones
sharing crypto and its world and what it does so it's super exciting um super i'm just super
grateful for everyone here today too and thank you guys for hanging out for the whole space
um thank you for just listening to other projects that wanted to chat and thank you guys for hanging out for the whole space um thank you for just listening to other projects that wanted to chat and thank you guys for showing up every week for these um and
with that i'm gonna let d bros say a quick goodbye if you'd like to and if he's not there then we're
gonna wrap it up i'm gonna see if music works but i have a feeling it won't
justin fell asleep at the keyboard.
No, I'm just kidding.
He didn't fall asleep.
Let's see if the music's working for us to roll out here.
Oh, God.
Change.
All right, let's see.
Nope. Not working. nope not working never gonna leave you up never gonna lay you down you know if i could rickroll you guys right now i would um though for real though also real quick as we're closing out here
the unify space is up at the top i know there's still 27 of you guys in here so if anyone wants
to make
sure they have the reminder set for the unify space in a couple hours, or actually in an hour
and a half, make sure you guys have that set. We'll see you guys next week. And again, just
thank you to every community member, every project, every founder, every developer that shows up every
day, that's here every week, that's on spaces,
that's really building and working even during the sideways trots of crypto.
Thank you, guys, because without all of you doing what you do, community to builders,
we wouldn't be able to do what we're doing.
Again, crypto always goes back to everyone has to believe in it for it to really take off.
And that's what we're building and what we do.
So thank you, guys.
I hope everyone has an
amazing rest of your week. I will see you guys next Wednesday for another crypto cannabis community.
And you have an amazing rest of your day. Y'all see you soon.
You're get out of here now. .
