GM friends. Thanks for sharing it with the party early or on time, rather, which is early. We're gonna give it a couple minutes for everyone to join and I'll be inviting some speakers on stage. GM everybody.
Hey, hey.
Sup Willie, good to hear you. Yeah, well, Sup Lindsay, great to hear you too.
Thanks for putting this together. Thank you for joining. Yeah. Or I can't wait to see you in everyone in Denver.
Likewise, man. Yeah, I think that might have been the last time I saw you in RL. Yeah, yeah, totally. I don't we didn't really know each other that well then. That's right. That was one of our other. That was our first time that we met.
Yeah, so much happens in a year, Willie. Look at that. What a year. I like it. I put a decade.
Seriously, we've all aged quite a bit. Hopefully, we're wiser too. Yeah. Older and dumber.
All right, well, we got, it looks like a, we'll be right just dropped. We got one more speaker.
coming in.
Welcome everybody.
So it's cool they've added the background music natively into the Twitter spaces. They did, but it's so bad. Like once you start speaking it just turns off and you don't know why it turns out.
off you get turned back on. Exactly. I just learned not the hard way. It's like testing and prod feature that Twitter is going through right now. All right, here we go. Let's see if this works.
there's a giveaway welcome back. Sorry about that but just wishing around. No problem everybody's here let's kick it off. GM everybody thank you so much for joining. Today we're here with our friends Thorcane, Hegey and Onrampyr and
them were kicking off eithinberg getting it started. So welcome everybody I guess we can go ahead and start it off. I'd love to just give you the chance to introduce yourself and what you do and give a brief intro about your awesome projects. And I guess I'll set the stage by mentioning that each of these projects are integrated
with app.shapedf.com. And we're all collaborating this year at ETH EMBUR to make it really special. And it was basically a joint effort between all these projects to sponsor the shape shift booth because it's a bear market and booths are expensive. And so by collaborating together we're stronger.
able to not just have a booth at ETHM or what plans and exciting stuff for you all. So looking forward to seeing you all there and we'll kick it off by passing it over to ThorChain to get started and introduce yourself. Yeah, hey, I'm ThorChain account. This is familiar to Cal and I'm the communications director of Nine Rolms where some of the primary
Dubs for the Thor-Chain Protocol. Thor-Chain itself is a permissionless cross-chain liquidity backend that ChaiPchip uses for decentralized swaps, sports eight different blockchains, including Bitcoin, Ether, and you can make native cross-chain swaps using Thor-Chain. That's what we do.
Awesome. Love it. I have not ever swapped through ThorChain. Crosschain. I highly recommend it. Fun fact, it's basically what enabled shape shift to stop KYC and it's why we're able to shut down our own trade engine and go fully decentralized when it comes to trading. So you'd perhaps to ThorChain
All right, Lindsay, please tell us a little bit about HEG. It's awesome, by the way, on the the Thorntchink. Hey, thanks, really. Lindsay and HEG, we do token management for DAO's. So we've had a lot of the tools that DAO's use for either fundraising or like their compensation.
or swapping with other devs. If you've seen the shapeshift hedges, which are basically like time locked fox, that the recipients are the contributors of shapeshift get these hedging NFTs that represent the locked tokens.
That's us. We just filled like a bunch of kind of the boring things in a doubt like the back and treasury management stuff and we tried to make it actually like not just a copying pace from Web 2 but things that are pretty uniquely possible in Web 3. So that's us.
Thanks, Lindsay. You can definitely attest to that. But we're going to be issuing kind of lock tokens. Hedge is the coolest, most fun way to do it. No doubt about that. And use it every month. So if you're a contributor to ShapeShift.dow and you want to take a percent of your payment compensation in Fox tokens.
You can actually get bonus box by opting into locking your fox up for either 3, 6, 12 or 18 months. You can get up to basically up to 30% bonus. So you get 5% bonus for locking up for 3 months and 30% bonus for locking your fox up for 18 months. Totally optional.
not only do you get lock-box to get these cool HEG and FTs each month, which you can use as a profile picture. They're cute. It's like a headshot with a fox shirt. So HEG is what powers that and super grateful for what you guys have built. I'll pass it over to Libroid with the honor of the room.
Hey guys, great to be here. So at on-ramp, we are a see at on-ramp aggregator. That means we take parties like Moon space and Moon pay wire and basically
integrate them into one single solution. Do some algorithmic magic, so to say, and present the best value crypto for any end user for any single transaction.
Awesome. These are some great introductions before, by the way. You guys have done this before. These are all super short concise and awesome value proposition. OnRamp is another feature integrated on ShapeShift and as Lee were mentioned, it's a Fiat aggregator. They've been a great multiple different on and off ramps and as probably any of you guys that are on our off ramps.
directly to a wallet. No, there's a ton of different providers and they all have different mixes of assets. They support both on the crypto side as well as the fiat side and you know they support different payment methods and they all have different rates on Ramp or basically abstracts all that complexity so that you can just say hey I want to buy this crypto with
this payment method and they'll find you the best rates. So on Rainpers Awesome and yeah huge shout out to all these partners for helping to make the shapeshift that awesome and for helping us sponsor this booth at ETH Denver which is going to be so much fun. I hope to look forward to seeing all of you guys there. We're just talking about how Lindsay and I
I met at 8th Denver just a year ago in RL. So it's going to be people from each of these teams there. So you're going to be able to come up and chat with any of the teams that you'd like to meet. And I'm sure we'll all make some great connections there. So as someone that's not been what's the vibe at 8th Denver, like what's some stuff you guys
like doing there, like what are, uh, what are some of the things that like we can look forward to? Because I haven't been there yet, but I've here, uh, just, you know, everyone just having a great time, just meeting a lot of people there and it sounds like a pretty fun conference. So, yeah, what kind of stuff like should I look to look forward to experiencing Addy Thunberg?
That's a great question. I'll start and then we can pass it around. Um, eat them very in my opinion has the highest vibes. And I'm not just saying that because we've got legal weed. Um, but it really is like I think one of the coolest, if not the coolest Ethereum conference, definitely the biggest is even going to be bigger than DevCon, which is like the second largest and DevCon had about 7000.
attendees and eat them are supposed to have 25,000 attendees this year. So absolutely huge. A lot of your favorite projects are going to be there. There's the main event which is free and not only is it free but you actually get a bunch of free stuff. You'll get food tickets and you'll get a bunch of swag of course and it's super
high quality like beautifully designed event and not only is there this main event but there's a ton of sight events all week so some alpha is make sure you go register for sight events if you haven't already because the spots are going to fill up quick and there's not room for 25,000 people at each sight event and yeah I think it's also
I've interested in hacking. It's the largest hackathon in the world. I'm going to meet some huge prizes. Competition Spheres. So you've got to choose if you want to actually enjoy the conference and meet people and go to talks or if you want to hack because if you want to hack, you've got to pretty much spend. You've got to ideally go in with like a tentative idea, maybe even a tentative idea.
team already planned out because the competition so fears can be a little tough if you try to like show up there and you don't yet have an idea or you don't yet have a team you're already going to be behind all these people who have been putting a little bit of prep work in that said you're not going to be able to build anything before the weekend starts. So that's my high level take on each Denver.
I'm going to say it's like going to Bonnaroo or something, or like some big music festival where you go there and you may have all these like plans and you're going to meet up with people and then you show up and it all just like goes to shit and like it kind of just with like this this core crew like
when we went last year, we had all these things we're going to do. We kind of just went on this journey and you have to play it by ear a lot of the times. But there's so many cool people that are just building amazing things. I think for us, it wasn't just networking or any of those things you do.
I had conferences. It was just going to a place and like Willie says vibes, but it was that. It was just a good place to go to meet people in a way where you, you know, a year later, you're on a spaces with them talking about, you know, seeing each other again soon. It's a fun time, honestly.
Well said Lindsay. I love the Bonner analogy and there should be some cool music out there too. There's gonna be several opportunities to go see some live music and and rave a bit. Lever, have you been to eat them? Or will this be your first time? No, no, this will be my first time. Well, not first time.
I'm done for, but first I'm going to eat them for that's for sure. It's I have no expectations other than very low expectations in the sense that I like to be pleasantly surprised when it comes to all these cool events. I'm just looking to like read up with a lot of cool people and see what this space is all about. Amen.
And yeah, Leroy, I met for the first time on a beach in Barcelona at a shape-shaped tie-dye swag party on the beach where everybody was tie-dying some some eat Barcelona shape-shaped shirts. So that was awesome. And so I know you guys have been to at least hopefully some ethereum conferences and if not, I personally
that Ethereum conferences are the best crypto conference out there, just because the community is so strong and it's minimal hype. There's obviously, you know, there's going to be some hype, but it's really mostly builders, especially during a bear market, if people who are in it for the right reasons, you can go up and talk to anybody and ask them what they're building in. Chances are they're building some cool shapes.
So yeah, it's really the place to be. And to Lindsay's point, you never really know what you're going to get out of it. That's the cool thing about these conferences is kind of going in. And there's like the collision factor. We're just like the people that you run into, the conversations you have, you're going to get value from it. And it's hard to anticipate exactly what that value is. But no doubt, if you#
I'm going to do it. Some cool stuff is going to happen. So I want to give everybody some space. I'd really like to hear kind of what the coolest new stuff that is happening with your respective projects is. What's something that's exciting just happened or is upcoming soon that you want to share today. Let's start with our change.
Yeah, I mean the biggest thing happening with dorkain right now is definitely savers vaults and our integration with shape shift and and shape shift Basically putting in dorkain savers vaults. So if anyone doesn't know dorkain savers vaults are basically a new way to provide single-sided liquidity to dorkain so you can provide just native v2
PC and earn yields on that without any kind of C5 risk or something like blockfi or Celsius. This is just like the D5 equivalent of something like that. Obviously not like blending assets out. It just uses your
assets in ThorChain itself. But it's really cool to see just ThorChain and ShapeShift just kind of take that relationship that Willi used that you just ended on that earlier. Like the shared beginnings of ThorChain and ShapeShift just taking that to the next level with the ShapeShift Savers vaults.
Well, Thorchained Staper's Ball is coming to shape shift. So I think that's it's super cool. And then I will see the the Staper's Ball cap be raised fairly soon. I would think so. I think it'll be awesome to see people start depositing native Bitcoin in using shape shift as their front end and starting
earn yields becoming a type of liquidity provider on on doorchain through shapeshift. So just two sides of the same coin there. We're all super excited about shapeshift and doorchain, their shared history and their shared future. So it's probably one of the biggest things coming out of doorchain right now.
+1, the saber assaults are super dope and if you haven't checked them out yet and if you have any non-ethereum assets that you'd like to earn yield on or Ethereum as well, Thorntag and saber assaults supports that. Definitely check it out. It's a great way to turn some extra yield in your Bitcoin without handing it over to a custodian like Blackfy which has a
all sorts of risks. So you'd perhaps tip the orchain on that awesome innovation. I think you just got a new user. That's awesome. I didn't realize that you were all good. We thought we were talking about that literally today. I'm going to check that out after this call. Yeah, yeah, please check it out. Check our
Check out the pinned tweet on the Thorchin account. It gives you a whole guide of what Savers Vault is, how it works, and what's offered. It's basically just native, it's yield on your native assets. So any of the gas assets on Thorchin, that's Bitcoin, Ether, B&B, Adam,
Avax, Dogecoin, Litecoin, and Bitcoin Cash. Any of those coins, you could just deposit into the door chain, basically, become a liquidity provider, and you can earn yield on that with no impermanent loss or price exposure to rune. So it's just deposit native asset.
That's the whole thing. It wasn't the door chain and you were native asset. That's the word that we're spreading. That's cool. Very cool. Sorry, I was coming in just to talk about that. Do you really go, Willie? Yes, please.
I appreciate that. What's new at Hegeland? Yeah, so look, Willie, you know, we've worked each other over a year now or about a year now. And this last year we've worked with ShapeShift, you know, in Gickoyne they did a $6 million GTC diversification and they
our tools for that to do the swap and then enforce the investor lockup. We've done a bunch of treasury swap. We've really just spent this last year building with live treasuries, mostly dows, but also just some token projects.
The thing we've kind of like been thinking as a team is like, you know, like with shapeshift or getcoin, if you could ask you like, you know, what is something you would go back in time if you were launching your token again and like do differently that would have like an impact today, right? I think like if you ask any or that
There's something they would do, whether they just didn't realize, like, a lesson learned, something to res friction, help tokenomics, hacks, regulatory, bunch of things. I'm trying to compile all that and start to go like earlier in the lifecycle with projects. So one thing we're launching is on-chain investment.
which is like kind of like a simple product. It sounds pretty boring. You have like team investing, usually foundations doing it, then a multi-sig, yeah, they got it. But you see this opportunity to do something a little different where all these on-chain orgs would be dows and really do everything transparently on-chain.
best in tokens or access to certain channels based on your best in tokens. Like a lot of the weird and the weed stuff that actually matters to on-chain orgs, we're starting to play with. So, yes, I talked about what we're doing this coming year. I think we want to go earlier
earlier with projects and just keep building this core token management stuff for teams and really just become the infrastructure that helps Dow like shapeshift and get coin and the next 500 that come into this world set up for success. So that's what we're doing really.
Yeah, that's awesome. Yeah, and I wish we could go back in time and relaunch the fox token with everything we've learned. It's just the case that it's like where we are in a
I think like the one thing all these awards can do, and I'll talk to you about this after, is actually start to give some of that knowledge to earlier teams as well. Otherwise, they're just going to do the same thing.
That's awesome. It just highlights one of my favorite things about the Ethereum space, which is like this composable innovation in the fact that if anyone's ever launched a token before, you know, it's a lot of work, even just launching a token, let alone a chain like Thor chain, but it's a lot of work. And so it really helps when there's tooling available.
So that you don't have to build, besting yourself, and then you get all these different options because that's another thing is that each government is taking each dow off and looks pretty different and there's no one size fits all. So giving that configurability and composability to make it easy for projects so they don't have to build all that themselves is
and appreciate you guys doing the low level steps so that all these entrepreneurs and projects on the call can follow their own visions. Thank you, Willie. Thank you guys. Do you want to add something there? Oh, yeah. Now I want to ask a question about Hegee.
Is he just a like aetherium native down management system or is it like is it cross-chain or like like what exactly does it we started with? Ethereum and EVMs We're starting to look into like different non-EVM chains that really just trying to
find the right partners to build things that will actually be used. So at that part of the question, as far as the tools we build, my co-founder was a senior treasury manager. We worked for six years. So it's like, it's everything for treasury management
from Dow's from pre-token to unicorn and everything in between. It's none of the financial engineering and things that a lot of other people do super well. For you all, as an example, an asset manager might use you just to generate yield on
And that's a part of like Treasury management that's more for like more advanced users. And so for those types of people like we try to either just make intros to people like you. And what we do is more of the like the boring
stuff that is super important, but kind of the stuff you don't want to deal with, like setting up team-vesting, distributing lock tokens to investors where they may want to participate in governance still. Maybe it's doing a distribution, not an air drop, but a claim with certain
parameters around it, or maybe it's doing a treasury swap with another project you're working with, a whole host of other things. But it's definitely not like retail or consumer products, but for treasury managers. So things that like you wish you weren't having to build yourself, that's what we do.
- Really cool, thanks. - Yeah, thank you.
I want to hear from from Leroy, but I saw we had Ethereum Classic Dow with their hand at Ethereum Classic. Is there anything you wanted to add? Hey, how you guys doing? I'm a former shape shift, so good to see you guys building over there. What we're working on is
You know, since the merge, Ethereum Classics now the largest proof of work, EVM, and the second largest proof of work network. And so we're setting up Web 3 on top of Ethereum Classic now. You can kind of follow our work at EthereumClassic.com.
got swaps up now. We were relying on a stepping stone of we were relying on multi chain to bridge assets over so we'll definitely be looking at Thorchin and what you guys are doing to bring assets over to Thorchin interoperability
and bringing that liquidity over is very difficult. The large stablecoins want a lot of money to deploy directly to Ethereum Classics, so that's kind of a struggle when you're starting out, so you've got to think of those stopgaps.
And now we have $10 million of funding coming in from Bitmain. So you can check out ETC Grants Dow as I believe their Twitter handle. They just announced that and so we've been working with Bitmain and then some of the mining community. They're pretty much embracing
in the Ethereum Classic as the EVM for proof of work. So you'll start seeing material investment going there. But anyways, exciting to see what you guys are doing. You know, we're just trying to keep our finger on the pulse on all things DFI, especially when it comes to cross chain because, you know, now we're into that multi-touch
chain reality that I think we all speculated back in the days and now it's here and with that comes all the challenge of doing it in a non-custodial way. So check us out that's what we're working on and we're following your guys' work to see how you know if we can apply it in our goals.
Cool, how can we get in touch? If you wanted to email us, dow@aetheriumclassic.com, easy way, we'll be at ETH Denver, like I said, on former shape shift. So just happy to see you guys still building.
So, thanks for saying, "Gian, I was gonna ask if you're gonna be at Etonbury." So, we'll see you guys there. Thanks for saying that.
All right, liberally, with what's new at OnRampers.
What's new? There's a lot of new things at Omrampur. We just spent the last six months or so basically a full re-architecture of our product, a new infrastructure that we've just launched just a shy one or two weeks ago, along with a new widget, a new website, a new marketing push and a complete rebrand.
We currently are working on, well, let me rewind a little bit. In the last six months, I basically had a feature freeze in place where no new products or features were developed and no new arms or arms were added. In that time, we've been contacted by roughly 100 on-ramps or so.
asking to be integrated into our solution. And right now we have, well, probably short list about 60 of them for earmarked for the current year to get them integrated. So we just launched the new widgets that support 35 different local payment methods in over 190 countries with, I believe, 130
for different fiat currencies and over 250 different cryptocurrencies that can be directly purchased through on-ramp or non-custodally into your own wallet. And we offer this integration pretty much to anyone in this space that wants an integration to accept crypto payments directly from any of these local payment methods. Other than that, we also have a lot of UI improvements that
So we've done with new widgets, we have a new dynamic transaction routing algorithm that basically assesses for each individual end user what would be the best on-ramp for their specific use case, saying, hey, I want to buy some eth with euros, which would be the best on-ramp for the country that I'm coming from.
example and our algorithm basically detects that plus roughly 65 other different factors that go into that algorithm to then determine what on-remput have the highest success rate for that transaction and that makes that recommendation to any end user other than that there's also the value proposition where the on-remput
ramp would be sorted based on the amount of crypto delivered. So out of all the norms available, you would then be able to simply say, hey, this is what I want to buy. This is how much I want to spend and able them basically give you a recommendation based on the amount of crypto that will be delivered. We currently have about 4.5
We have a big year of a lot of cool announcements that are coming up. One that actually went out today, we have a partnership with BitMax. There was announced today or well, the announcement came out today with integration in a couple of weeks ago. We have a lot of cool on-ramps
coming on that are also expanding into Latin America, expanding into Asia, and expanding into Africa. So we're trying to expand our global coverage as much as possible to solve what we've effectively called the on-ramp trilema, which is basically the global reach, the success authorization rates, and the lowest fees on the market.
Wow, that's awesome. You guys are crushing it. I've been very impressed with how fast Enraper is expanding and one thing we love about Enraper is if we ever get a request from users or the community to support a certain currency and a certain place or a certain on-off-ren provider, we can just send them over
to OnRamper and say, "Hey, when you guys integrate these guys, so that we don't have to do it ourselves at ShapeShift." You guys have been awesome about that. So I really appreciate OnRamper and I'm glad to have you guys with the partner on ShapeShift and any timber. - Happy to be there, for sure.
So, where are you all planning to do anything? Are there any cool talks that anyone's speaking at or participating in or any other activations where we can see you guys are your product in action? I haven't even looked yet, Willie. Like, I haven't even looked, you brought up looking at the, the, the, the side events thing.
I remember last year it was packed and there's like five times as many people going this year. Like I'm so fucked, I'm not even going to get into any events now. I know I'm bad, I'm sure that Alpine I haven't registered either. I hear you. Because we've all been so busy building but I did see there's
link out there for site events. We're going to have to get to another event for people who missed out on every event. Maybe it'll be like a day of event and you can only go to it if you're not registered for anything else. I love that idea dude.
Definitely, I'm sure that will happen. And to your point, that has to happen all the time at these Ethereum conferences where people will just make impromptu events and get together and stuff, especially like all the other events are packed. So, do you guys know, is there going to be like a Rave this year? Does anyone know? Oh, I don't know.
I will say that we're having an event actually on Saturday with in-con or a medical tell. I don't know exactly where, so it's kind of bad for me to like bring it up, but there is an event with Medigard Dullin-Hedgy, so if anyone on here wants to come just like shoot me a DM,
And I'll just add you to the list of people and whoever else you want to bring There you go one event. Well, a one event sweet sweet. Please have me to live yeah lock it in That's awesome. I'm gonna tell us super cool to you. So looking forward to that one
13 on remember what that job you get you're going to need to answer tax this year. Well, we're also going to be of course obviously will be at Edemford. We'll also have a booth at consensus press blockchain week in the ECC. So definitely come catch us there also. There's probably not going to be any event that we're not specifically
going to in that sense we'll always have some people going somewhere at least. To be honest, to be fair, if Denver, I personally have no idea which side events I'll be at. I have my very trusty associate Briggs that basically plans all that for me and just tells me five minutes before we have to go next event. I'm like, okay, here we go.
Oh man, I wish I had one of those. That sounds awesome. It's super hard to be going to the event and planning it all out. If you have something that can help you with that, that's a nice luxury. HBane, go ahead, familiar account. Oh yeah, I was mostly just going to play it by year.
like we're gonna be out there with a couple of other nine realms guys. So we're just gonna be out just talking to you other potential integrators and then obviously at the shapeship booth just spreading the word of just like shape shift and thorching and telling that story probably a million times and showing people how to do cross-chainspots just talking about it because I'm sure a lot of people there would probably have their mind
is the perfect back-end front-end solution for that. It's going to be a lot of work just talking to people, letting them know that things exist beyond the EVM island. That's where we'll be. Other than that, playing it by ear, seeing who else is the potential integrator, maybe
other exchanges and things, wallets and just whatever else. I'm sure there's going to be a bunch of interesting builders people that want to use Bitcoin liquidity. I'm sure that it's not just ETH Max is there. It'll be cool to see what people are building and just dreaming up a little bit how things could
to work more together there. So look at far too a no solid plan but it's gonna be with the shapeshift guys for a lot of the time I'm sure. You need to have a booth set up or a demo set up with the shapeshift booth man. Honestly like I know what you do like I follow for a chain like I know you've been working with them but like until you
you said what you did, like it didn't really hit me exactly like how big it is, what you're doing. I would love to like, fuck with your project. That's great. Yeah, yeah. Well, that would be, that's a great idea. It's some kind of demo. Yeah, maybe I'll record some videos or something like that. So I don't have to keep making swaps back and forth.
That's a great idea. To your point, familiar to Cal, the video loops are great. We've done a lot of demos at the booth and I imagine we might have a laptop.
up up there where you can play around with the app. But what works really well for sure is having like a screen recording on loop. So you don't have to worry about internet issues or anything. You can just have that awesome demo looping to show everybody who walks up. HPaint on stage is kind of spearheading the shapeshift booths
at ETH Denver. Do you talk about what we're doing there and why people come check out the booth? Yeah, for sure. Yeah, absolutely. So this is actually two things I want to mention. Events that shapes you will be outside of our booth. We have ODEVENT on March 2nd, where we'll be speaking at 4pm at a
there talking about wonderful, wonderful things. I know this event is technically sold out, so if you want tickets or want to get in, you can go to the Shaped Shaped Server and DM me or throw them a stage down at Marketing Growth Public and we'll see if we can get you in there. But it's talking about on-chain debt, stable markets, and much more with lots and lots of food. And so definitely, definitely, definitely check those out#
the shape shift booth. It is a piece of beauty. It is if Picasso painted his most beautiful picture, it would come in second place to what the shape shift booth looks like this year. It's a booth that you definitely don't want to miss. And let me tell you why. So one of the really awesome things that is sort of like secret shape shift out
about how we can actually make something like this happen is, shape-shape is a front end and we have this awesome network of partners that provide the awesome product that we curate to our users. The shapeshift product wouldn't be as awesome without having awesome partners like the ones that you've just been hearing. And so this was sort of a scientific
experiment of like, okay cool, like, you know, shape shift is cool on its own, but like, one of those like shape shift and like all the cool partners that help make like the Dow and the organization in the ecosystem, right? Because shape shift is largely, you know, this large cross chain ecosystem, super potent. And so this is a really awesome, come together of this. And so we have some bespoke band
to the fifth or whatever those four days are of the main conference. Stop by the ShapeShift booth and collect one of those unique stickers and we'll only be giving them out for that one specific day and they'll need to be talking about door chain, it'll be talking about HEGG, it'll be talking about Enrampr or it'll just be a ShapeShift generic sticker. And so you want to make sure you collect
all four of those to qualify for a shapeshift fox starter pack and this is tons of awesome free swag and this is largely also this swag pack was also sponsored in part by some of our partners as well. So you might be asking yourself, you know, H-Pain what do I get if I collect all four of these stickers and show up on last day and show
We know those are two very coveted numbers and it comes with a printout card that is actually super cool We have we had those at past the activations in Latam with the global folks never bringing those in as well as 5,000 Fox tokens. That's a it's pretty pretty beefy amount of Fox if I'm being honest and so there's only two of these prizes available and they're only being given out to people who
collect all four stickers who show up to our booth all four days and then also create a native wallet on our mobile app and subscribe to our wherever notifications which will be going live next week. And because the reason we want you to subscribe to the notifications is so that we can actually send you your Fox and the NFTs after the fact.
So that's basically the whole reason. So that being said, that's really what we're looking forward to. And there'll be a large announcement. So if you're on this call right now, you sort of get a little bit of top secret alphas to what's actually happening there and how you can potentially win some awesome free swag at the shapeshift booth with our partners. So yeah, that's all I got for you.
That's super cool. I'm looking forward to all this wagon getting me excited Hpane. I definitely want to hear more about these door-pores ones, but I just had an idea. You said we're going to be giving 5,000 bucks away. It'd be awesome if we could give that away inside of a hegey. Oh, that's a great idea. Actually, oh my god.
I love it. And fun fact, one of the cool things about that is that it gives the recipient, we've used a few times in the Dow. Basically, when people are receiving Fox tokens, but don't have any plans to basically use those Fox tokens, they just want to hold it. They still want voting power.
We've had a few contributors requests to receive their Fox and Heggies because it can talk to your tax advisor, but it can defer any tax liability until the date that you actually claim those Fox tokens. It could be a cool way to give someone some Fox without them having to realize any tax liability until they're
So yeah, I'm gonna tell you more about these door-course ones like how did you guys make she oh yeah, so this is like my own personal
project and this is kind of how I got this job if you call this working for nine rums in the first place. So I just started off making these custom air forces basically that are in a Thor chain theme. Maybe you can click on my profile, you can see them on there.
And yeah, it's like custom box custom shoes I I buy like the blank air forces and I you know cut and paint and you know make sure everything's like really solid and Yeah, so I originally sold them as NFTs you can claim the actual physical shoe anywhere in the world I think I've made probably like 50 or so
60 pairs in the past year and just sent them out to doing giveaways and selling them as NFTs. So I make them custom individually, depending on your size. So yeah, wherever wins I'm going to collect
some shoe sizes and then make some custom pairs. They're actually really cool. So the box is matte black with gold foil on the top says Thor Pors 1 with the Thor Chain logo and the swooshes on the side, they're reminiscent of the Thor Chain logo
the Thunderbolt with the, it's kind of like an offset Thunderbolt and the paint on them is glow in the dark and so it actually glows in the dark and has some some golden dubray tips and then on the on the front of the shoe you can actually it says so one of the
It's like a little buckle and one says Thor and the other one says Rune. So there's just some custom door chainswag and beloved in the community. So I'm going to begin some way. We gave away at least I might have been two pairs last year at each end very so we're going to do it again because people
I really like them and honestly I want to see more people get them and wear them especially dedicated community members and people who just want something to either wear or put on a shelf or whatever you want to do with it. But there's a custom thing just by me.
Yeah, hopefully I can contribute them to someone who wants to wear them. Are those the ones that are on your Twitter header? Yes. Wow. That looks cool. Yeah, no, they're super sick. And yeah, again, like all custom by me besides like the base two, it's
itself from the original idea to where it is today. The packaging is really cool too. I don't think anyone here has a pair so anyone that has one will vouch that they're really dope. They take me many hours to make each pair so it is a labor of love for the community there.
You're like a Virgil Ablo right there. Yes sir. I'm a good designer for Nike. Yeah, that's right. Awesome. So dope familiar count. Man, I wish I could enter to win one of those but I imagine I'm not allowed to. I love what you did with the switch though and turning the switch
That is super cool and super thoughtful. Good luck to everyone listening. Definitely make sure you enter to win. That is a fat prize path. Well sweet. You guys got me high for each member. And yeah, I'm going to make sure to go register for some side events after this.
So we're getting up to the end of the chat and I'd love to just give each of you guys some space to really quickly recap what your project does and maybe talk about how it benefits the shape-to-fico system and then what the best way is for anyone that's interested in learning more to get in touch.
And it was good analyst and we'll start with 13. Sorry, sorry, I missed three or you said what do you need? How to get in touch with us this quick recap. Yeah, you can also just stay out again touch but quick recap on what Thor chain does how it benefits you. Yeah, sure. So,
The chain is a cross chain liquidity protocol.
And we recently integrated Sabers Vaults with Thorchain, which is a way to earn single-sided yields on your Bitcoin or whatever else Thorchain supports. So you could make a swap or earn a yield single-sided, just like you used to be able to with BlockFi.
but not in that way. So, yeah, if anyone wants to get in touch, you can always just DM the Torch any count and just don't want to get back to you or DM me or on Telegram or just Quarad or whatever. I'm around, it's not hard again in touch with me. And I'll be a Dendra. See you there.
Thanks, and there you go. We'll see you there. All right, Lindsay, quick recap on Hegey and we're going to get it up. >> Just follow me on Twitter if you want to get in touch with us. We kind of recap things.
And I think that's one of the things for like dows and treasuries and it's the things a lot of people made up realizing a lot of workers into this stuff and the whole reason is that dows like shapeshift, you know, they're going to build this like incredible stuff over the next five years, 10 years, 15, 20 years forever.
And to do that, you have to have a treasury that can get you there. That is having enough money in the bank to pay people, that is having the right structures and incentives to align people to manage risk to
the treasury and all this super like back in stuff just to let you like focus less on the treasury and more like actually doing cool stuff. With shapeshift you know we are lucky enough to kind of come in this when we are figuring out what like the contributor rewards product was and it was really just
like honestly really like with you and Kent and John and everybody like you all knew what it was better than we did to be honest with you because you actually had the problem and and I think you know that product you just use as one of you know many things in your doubt
And for us, it's just finding, working with you and finding other people who are like, have the same kind of ethos that you all have to work with and build very cool treasury management, token management tools with over the next year is what we're focused on.
So if you want to do that, send me a DM and we'll set up some time just to talk. Jam on ideas. So thank you. Thank you really also, shout out to T Wells from one of the shapeshift. Good to see you here.
Thanks, Lindsay. Plus one shout out to the two else. I remember he was there when we met in person a year ago. And yeah, big plus one. Super grateful for all the awesome doubt tooling that you guys have built at Hedgie and can't recommend. Hedgie protocol or the team enough for any doubt listening that are looking to improve.
I'm going to try to get a better look at the market.
incentivizing and rewarding contributors who take Locked Fox any percent of their compensation as Locked Fox as a great way to basically extend your runway incentivize your contributors and reward your contributors who are in it for the long term. Let's go. All right. Let's go.
