Hey, I'm feeling great, dude

I actually just fucking
Got back from the crib
We opened some packs
Starting the day
Getting the day going already, bro
You were busting packs already?
Everyday routine now
So every day
Not every day
I kind of just
Go to Walmart every day
Try to see what I find
If I find something good
I'll go ahead and bring it home
Man, I love that
I have a small surprise, too
It feels like we're like
The great minds
I have my whole setup ready
The kind of how we're going to do things today
We are going to keep this
Completely focused
NFT card rips
For the first
Good 30 minutes of this space
I really want to talk about
You know, some of the things
We were touching on
With education
We have a big announcement
To reflect all of the things
That we're doing
That's going to be posted
I have it half written
It's going to be posted up
Probably within the next hour
After the space is over
And everybody can
You know, follow up on that
Read through it
It's going to be a big one
But I really do
Agree with what you were saying
The other day about
You know, keeping people
Up to date
On what we're doing
And keeping those things
In the announcements
Sometimes I think
We get so hyped up
And excited
That we just do stuff
And we forget to
Bring everyone else
Along with us
So that's dope
I went ahead
I was up early too
And I have
10 boxes of cards
To open after this space
So we got football
And we got
Like I was super lucky
I was like on it today
I got some
And I got some basketball
And I'm also going to
Share with everybody
Some of the things
I bought for myself
Card collecting convention

She's the mother
Of the family

And they just
All looked at her
As soon as
I busted out the box
And they're like
Let her open it
And I was like

Like it was almost
Like they were
Like superstitious
Or something
And it's funny
Because these are
Who actually do
The breaks
Like on live
It's just like
They were like
Let her bless this
And no joke
They gave her
Two packs to open
And one was an auto
And one was another

NFT card rips
In terms of
The breaks itself

Physical portion
We're gonna be
Talking a little bit
More about
The business models
That we're gonna
Bring as well
Different ways
Of generating revenue
And you know
Obviously we're gonna
Touch upon the
Web3 portion
So you know
Let's go ahead
And get some people
And I would
I would be remiss
If I didn't
Start us off
With a little intro
Welcome to
Happy Wednesday
I can't believe it
These weeks
Have been flying by
The weather's changing
The coffee tastes better
Because it's cold out
But it's warm in your belly
Ha Ha ha ha ha
holy cow yes buddy now i'm ready to go let's get some hearts and hundreds for the people up in
here we got zam already and guys if you're just getting in please do reshare the space let's get
some people in here and of course if they've missed it it will be all reshared because this is a
recorded space and today what we really want to do is dial into what we're doing at nft card rips
where we're at as a team as a business model and what we have going on as far as onboarding new
members so we've been sitting at about a couple shy of 300 members quality members uh and we really
want to start ramping those numbers up and getting the community educated but also prepared to go to
market with our very first collection so um you know where we're at right now is we are we we have
our art ready um to just just to kick things off the art is with the dev tonight we're doing i'm doing
one more meeting uh with them to iron out some dimensional issues uh getting the little things
right uh they're all going to be built on the ethereum blockchain and there's going to be 1500
pieces uh for our very first season our genesis collection is we're we're so happy with it um the
guys the team at um at grem goyles did a really great job um him uh pinky shout out to pinky and equal
who was part of the art team that helped design these uh we're going to be dropping some more
um you know sneak peeks in the discord today so um please do come in we're going to be doing lots
of box breaks really showing you guys if you have questions about the breaks uh and showing you some
fun stuff but you know what we're doing what our aim here is is to take you know card breaks and and
ripping into web 3 right um we've been focusing a lot on irl recruitment and onboarding we've just
recently fired up our instagram our facebook pages uh while that sounds a little web 2 um it does
really mesh well with our business model a lot of people doing this sort of thing that love it and
are passionate about it uh they do a lot of their business on those platforms so we've gone down that
road as far as onboarding and we do feel like that will be a recipe for success as we move down and
through our roadmap um because this is a very evolving uh thing we we really don't know anyone
else that's doing what we're doing right now um we have to go you know low and slow type of thing
right uh find the right people that are passionate about this because once it gets kicked off and we
go into our first season uh there's really no looking back for us we plan on being you know
breaking all the time giving back to the community who's invested in us uh you know our nfts are
gonna we feel like they're your access pass to the full season because that's exactly what they are
they're an nft but also that gets you access to our full two-month season and every other week we're
gonna break cards and you know they're within the collection there's going to be 1475 of the
generative piece and then 25 vips or one of ones and in there there's going to be equal representation
of all the nfl or american football teams uh in that and that's how we're going to get
everybody that's going to be involved in the breaks from week to week so no matter what if you
mint with us you are going to get something in return um throughout the season we're going to do
regular breaks and then we're going to do vip breaks for those that are lucky enough to mint one
of our 25 one of ones and if by chance you are sometimes like me i'm i'm i'm 50 50 on luck but
if you do end up kind of at the bottom of this and you don't really get into any breaks we're going to
have some skunk breaks at the very end of the season which will guarantee those people that never
got in drafted into a divisional pick uh will then be included into some guarantee pulls for them
so at least coming away with a pack of cards uh for you know investing with us having one of our nfts
and then i like to pass this portion over to emilio uh because he's been working really really hard
uh him and the dev have been working on the more web 3 portion of where we're going to move to as we go
from season to season um this is going to be uh incremental with how we work our business model
because as we start getting you know our our community educated uh we get into a flow of how
we do season to season we're going to start leaning more into web 3 uh a lot of our audience in here
likes to hear that we want them to know while we're starting in a very two of a very web 2 based
business model we are going to lean into web 3 uh and so emilio if you want to touch on that a little
bit with the dap creation um you know how having an ncr nft will be beneficial not just for the season
but into the future of what we're doing at nft card rips maybe you just want to like touch on that a
little bit because i know you've been you've been getting into that um and just let people know
the future like what's beyond season one and nfts with card rips
yes sir yes sir so first thing i want to iterate right is right nft card rips the nft itself it's
going to be used as a membership right for our brand right so what comes with that membership right and
we uh let's let's let's touch a little bit up on uh on the on the web 2 in real life portion right
so there's going to be a hundred sixty thousand dollars that in nfl box breaks that are going to
be allocated to our members right um we're going to be having team like like pat mentioned right
team breaks skunk breaks and things of that sort um but here's what we go into a little bit of like
the web 2 portion right so um we're going to be offering right uh what we call the loyalty reward
program right so if you guys noticed um if you guys hop into our discord right we do have a channel
called hustle and we have our hustle token on there um that's gonna that's gonna transition
eventually into um right actual an actual token that uh could be on that could be on chain and you
guys are gonna be able to get rewarded just by uh being a member right holding an nft of ours right
right now what we're doing is we're doing it um pre mint so we have it for verified members and um
whitelist members that are in our discord so rookies and all-stars uh you get to you get to uh claim
your hustle tokens through there as well um right so you're gonna have exclusive exclusive access
right once it happens and all this you're gonna have exclusive access to our trading cards uh
memorabilia marketplace right so what we're uh what we're gonna be doing is we're gonna be posting
obviously you know uh cards you know for anywhere from rookie cards right autographed right patches and
things of that sort i'm onto this marketplace along with nfts and you're gonna be able to use your
um reward points right so your hustle points your hustle tokens you're gonna be able to go ahead
and use that and redeem these prizes um for the free 99 right so it's pretty that's pretty uh pretty
awesome right uh we talk if we go into a little bit more about the business model of things right
um there's a lot of avenues to tackle right uh right into in cards there's a lot of ways to make
money right uh one of them obviously is being divisional breaks right um that's going to be one source of
revenue for us right we're going to have our obviously our nft breaks uh that we're going to
have uh post mint but we're also going to have um other breaks in between that uh members will be
able to participate in uh we also are going to have uh we also have another concept called the pull
box right so these are already cards that are pulled but they're a little higher valued right
they are they're already autographs right and um and patches and you know special parallels and high
valued rookie cards right um these are this is going to be pretty much um a different way of you
getting involved in this alternative investment slash hobby that you know card collecting is
um and minimizing your risk at the same time right so that's very important right that one of the
things i like uh pushing out there right is that we're also minimizing the risk right it's easy
obviously to go out and buy these boxes yourself um in retail right a lot but a lot of people uh may or
may not know is that retail boxes um it's a little harder to get a nice hit right uh we're going to be
breaking a lot of hobby boxes throughout our division breaks that are going to minimize that
risk for you and minimize the cost more importantly um so so yeah obviously we want to you know we want
to focus a lot on the live streamings right in our in our videos right so we're going to be focusing
a lot on you know video editing and and um you know posting these videos on youtube instagram um
i don't think i don't think on twitter or on x but um you know tiktok and things of that sort
where you know we know that uh as we grow right and and and as we get more you know followers and
more members right there's going to be chances to generate revenue through there as well and like i
said we're going to be very consistent with um with how often we're doing these breaks uh the pull boxes
right um pretty much anything that we do is going to be live and recorded and we're going to be posting
those on our social platform so i think that's a very very important for us um in a way and
yeah i mean you know i'll leave it up for questions if anybody has any questions right
because we can go on and on right on what we have um we have planned to do as well so pat if you want
me to touch up a little bit on you know what it's a what's the future ideas of of of how deep we could
go into nft car rips and and not to say that this is something that's going to happen you know post mint
or or even you know a year after things like that right this is something that you know there's more
things that that we are looking into right um obviously we don't want to jump ahead of the
curve but there are already you know more things that we're looking into that i could help grow our
business and grow our brand yeah i think this is the perfect uh day and space to talk about it um
like even if we some of these things if you guys are listening to this after the fact and we're in
your ear and debate like this you're listening to the recorded space um you know some of these things
that we're going to talk about our future if you you know it's setting the intention for card rips
right we we have a very clear vision you know but part of the business plan is we can't share
everything but yeah let's let's let's go let's go into it um would you be cool if we if we start
from the beginning and go through what you've already achieved and what it's like some of the things
like the pull boxes um you know we are very very big on our onboarding process right now uh what i
think would be really cool to touch on some of those things that have been coming up for us and um
and touch on the the here and now and then like let's go to the future after that is that is that
cool because i think that like the the pull box that was hugely successful um i think some of the
things that you've been getting into with some of the partnerships and some of the things you brought
to the table have been huge uh we have a lot of updates inside the discord um one of the things
that i really um you know one of my pet peeves is we can't be everywhere all at once right and
sometimes we we join projects or we mint with them or invest with them however you want to call it
and we kind of like lose pace with the project especially being a part of a team or a founder uh it's
super hard to get caught up and i think that was one of my motivations for today's space was
if you're listening to this after the fact or you're here right now you're gonna you're you're really
gonna feel like when this space is over you're gonna have a full comprehensive look in uh to our
clubhouse what what the team is at um you know our experience and what we're doing to like crowdsource
to build up our community wallet to give back to you guys i i think that's huge on our minds all the
time is how do we give value um even before we ask for anything from our community because we
haven't right we've i think largely we've given a lot of free breaks we continue to do those free
breaks which is i may be a really good launch point for where we're at um and you know the the
roadmap for us has been very fluid and kind of like a living document in a lot of ways because
we've we've you know we've we've maneuvered and changed directions a little bit based on
our team dynamic um just their information as we get it do you are you cool with that if we if we go
back to the beginning and kind of where we're at and then where we're gonna go would that be dope
would that be all right yeah for sure brother and and you know um if you have and obviously you
know you know everything that we have going on but if i miss something feel free to ask you know ask
me a question um wait because i know you're really good at that so go ahead and ask me a question and
um and i'll touch up on that but um i guess let's let's start from the top right uh you know we talk
about premium what we're doing for our holders right you dove into the divisional breaks right and what
we've been doing there right we host rumbles every friday right for the for division spots um and what
that means is uh right the so typically it would be you know the first two rumbles the top three or
the top four depending whether it's nfl or nba but pretty much what we do is you know we allocate
these divisions to you and any team any cards that are pulled from that division meaning you know the
teams that are within that division they get allocated to you right and sent to you for free
right the reason we do this is um not only to get to give you guys the the fun experience right of
having the thrill you know of like oh what could be pulled right what hits are going to be right
and things of like and things of that sort but we also want to educate everybody on you know uh the
different type of breaks that we're doing right the different uh cards that are available out there
right the different boxes right because there are some that are um you know more valued than others
so that that we really do that for an educational standpoint and to really have our members engaged
to that sort so we do that every friday right uh 3 p.m eastern if i'm not mistaken um you know then we
could talk about you know i know we touched about uh upon upon this a little bit but we talk about
you know our pre-ment uh our pre-ment membership right in a way right if you hop into our discord
you guys could already start claiming these hustle tokens right without even having to hold the nft
right so you know it's pretty much 3.99 as long as you come in you claim your tokens right uh there's
other ways right you could engage through activities and events and uh and all that stuff right so
um i think that i think that's another uh you know thing that we wanted to do is that we wanted to
show you that um a lot of proof of concepts right throughout uh this pre-ment that you guys are
going to be able to see at a much larger scale once mink comes through right so obviously claim your
claim your hustle tokens right which which in in retro in retrospect is pretty much um your loyalty
you know your your loyalty points uh for being a member in our discord and you know like i mentioned
we have a marketplace per se right we don't call it we call it more like a shop um but we have a
marketplace uh you know filled with nfts right we have a whole bunch of nfts we talk about con club
we talk about the og ape club we talk about um you know i think just some invisible enemies there the
nas nft um not sure if denari f dow is there but i know we had that uh in mind as well right there's a
whole bunch of um items that you could get just for being a discord member right now right um
obviously eventually once we uh once we're post mint um all that is going to be locked uh specifically
just for our uh nft members right so those that are holding uh but for now right we want to show
you guys uh the experience we want to show you guys right this is something that we could that uh
we want to provide pre-ment we want to show you that this is something that's actually feasible
unable and that we're able to do it in a consistent basis right because um if you guys right if you guys
you know i'm sure a lot of us have been you know around a big amount of projects right where um
you know they offer things and we just want to at least specifically right for for us we want to show
you guys that it's not it's not just words coming out of our mouth right this is something that's very
doable right so i think that's important right to show a proof of concept and we've done that on a
consistent basis so right we have that mark we have that marketplace there right for those people
earning those hustle tokens um you know now we could talk about um you know events and activities
that we do within the community right so um i just want to just want to confirm everybody could hear
me um if anybody could throw me a thumbs up oh you're back brother you're back um okay it was me it
was it was i think it was totally me um copy that i think most you could hear you the whole time
uh i i pesh i sent you a uh a co-host invite as well just in case it's me uh and we don't
rug the space completely so if you want to accept that or you can chat chat too um yeah we're good
carry on cool cool so right you know we'll go back to the proof of concept right we want to show you
guys that there there is proof of concept so we're talking about activities events that we do for the
community right uh we started off with fantasy football right uh something fun and interactive for our
community members right we did 50 uh you know uh per team that you build um and you pretty much you
know get to enjoy uh you know the fun and you know the you know changing your lineups and and earning
some cash right at the end of the day right through the through this event right we do have um you know
there is prize pools for those you know top teams at the end of the season right so um that's already
closed off but right we'll be looking to do more of these events right um and there's even more ways to
interact and make money there right um then we talk about right uh how is the project going to
make money right um you know apart from youtube and all these other things are we're going to be
focusing um like i said right on those on those pool box breaks right so like i mentioned the pool
box is you know typically a box of 100 cards right anywhere from jerseys autos uh any type of patches
any type of special parallels and things of that sort right uh that we sell to our community members
right so it's per pool right so it right you know we have it right now at ten dollars per pool
for the first one everything after the first one is eight dollars um is eight dollars plus right and
that includes shipping right so shipping is included no hidden cost or fees in there um and you know
recently we actually did uh the pool box i think that was sometime last week and what we did was um
um we we collected actually um in profit i want to say around uh six hundred dollars or so right and
that's going to be you know reinvested and reused for um all our you know for for for all you know
development that's going to be for the project right um so that's that's a that's another important
proof of concept that there is interest right even with the the small group that we have right now
um it's such a strong core that there's so much interest there right and and it's just it just
shows that there is a community and a market for this and that there is you know ways to make money
for the project that it's going to help us also further develop post mint right so that's a perfect
proof of concept right there as well um pat i'm not i i might have got lost a little bit here but i
think i think i pretty much touched on touched up upon um a lot of things that we're doing right now
um in a lot of ways that we're showing proof of concept um but yeah uh let me know let me know
if if i missed anything i know you're having trouble hearing me so maybe i'll hop off and come back on
hey pesh sorry if i'm interrupting any oh there he goes pesh can you hear me okay
you can okay all right there's emilio sorry guys it's so always fun and games get emilio back up
just checking emilio can you hear me again
all right mic check mic check yeah yeah yo yo yo yo there we go yes sir so i guess just to catch up
on speed because i know you might have missed some things right so i talked about a little bit
um you know about our division breaks that we do for our community members right uh you know
education through that portion i talked about um you know our loyalty reward program right proof of
concept even prement um i talked about um the pool box right and how we generate money through there
right and how that gets uh redistributed right um for further development of the project or even you
know even for more box breaks and you know prizes for our members um so you know i don't know if i
missed anything else that we're doing right now because i know we are juggling um around through a
lot of things uh but yeah if i missed anything by all means you know um you know feel free to ask a
question and let me know yeah yeah no you smashed it um you know that we do a lot with a small team and
just to give everybody kind of an idea on our clubhouse is um you know mike is from texas and
and that's uh sell hell he's down in the audience if you want to give him a follow send him some love
uh you know the origin story there is you know um mike's passion has been cards for for over 20 years
and wanted to bring that to the blockchain uh he he he found emilio emilio brought me in um
and we became the core team for nft card rips and then we have our awesome mods our co-host your
pesh uh he's our senior mod and then we also have um another another one of our awesome mods from
um quebec on lucky winner uh jay crypto who's down in the audience as well uh huge shout out to you
um those guys are are essentially our our full-time mods so you know team of team of five or six you
know not and not for not to not include our um you know our brilliant artist team from the
grem goyle shout out to them uh we also have our uh dylan our our developer who's fantastic we're
working with getting the smart contract deployed in the art um and so if you're if you're a new user
coming into web 3 with what we're doing we've what we've wanted to do is create an environment that
feel safe for all of these people that we're bringing from the web 2 world which is a huge part
and we wanted to keep it fun and easy for people to feel integrated right while we do have a lot of
things going on um you know some of the things not mentioned you know we just kicked off and this is
shout out to pesh uh he's our soccer guy he has um a fun interactive google um form which you can
pick like you can guess your winners for the champions league um that's popping off that's
something that was completely free but it's going to be super engaging and super fun to track that
we also have fantasy football on the go which i don't know if you've checked yours lately emilio
uh i'm not doing so hot i'm on two fantasy leagues right now and both of them i'm in the bottom half
i think i think for our fantasy i think i'm eight out of 12 and i unfortunately for me i think i'm
matched up against you for the next game which is shit for me because i think you're in first
um so i tried to make some changes to my team and see if i can't pump the stats a little bit
um and then the other one i'm with i think i'm like 11th out of 14 with the ogac fantasy one but also but
just like fun right like these things are things that don't cost anything but you can be a part of
the community and and get to know people and and that was one of the things that i think that was at
the forefront of how we were thinking about you know bringing people to our community um so some
of the things that we've also tried to enable our community to to go out and help us a little bit
was our invite contest um of course you get rewarded so if you're in the discord right now
and you see the invite contest channel which is under our information currently we have 12 people
already achieved this milestone so all we asked was that if you come in and you bring three of your
best friends people that you think would enjoy this um you automatically get put on a list of 32 people
uh to get involved in a free break um which is amazing because then you're going to experience what
we do uh and what we're going to be doing a lot through our first season um but then you also have
a chance to win those cards um one of the things that we really want to do is reward people through
the way that we're going to run our season so you're already getting like like amelia was saying
with that pre-mit utility um you don't really have to do a lot to be a really good member with us
is kind of where we're going it's it's a low barrier to entry um and it's just a little bit of
engaged to earn uh and you're going to get rewarded immediately uh same with the poker tournaments
that we've been bringing in that we started doing um another one of those is going to be posted out
later today um where we're going to do it again so if you're in the top spots you're winning either
our hustle tokens which you can get free cards or nfts or other fun collectibles that we have in our
discord channel in our shop um but you can also just help us grow bring in great people and then you
get more free breaks and you get to add to your collection of cards or maybe you have uh you know a
niece or nephew that loves cards um you know you can get those base cards sent to you with the wins
you could give them to them uh but another way we've tried to enable people is um if you win cards
through us through whichever break you're in um you can you can come up with a few options that
are quite flexible that help you get the most out of your experience so you know if you win some
cards through a free break whether it's our our saturday free break uh which you can get involved
in by just engaging with rumbles on friday um or you do the invites and you get involved that way
uh we're constantly trying to do them to expose people to the fun that card breaking is uh so then
if you go and you do win all you got to do is open a ticket um usually mike or emilio are are
our resident breakers right they'll go live on our youtube channel and uh you get to see firsthand
the fun that it is and then you get to see what you've actually won uh and then for the for the
this pre-mint utility we're actually covering the shipping costs of those as well um but for example
we've had we've had members that quite frankly aren't there for those cards they're there for the nft and
they're there for the experience uh and they support us so if you're one of those and you you fit that
category where you're like i don't know much about football or basketball right now but i want to i
want to be a part of it uh and i want to be a part of the thrill of of that you know what what it what
what that dopamine hit that you get when you open cards which is so much fun um you're like ah i don't
want those cards uh what can i what can i get instead well super easy um if you decide you don't want
them you can donate them back to us where they'll go into a box and at the end of our first season
um i i believe mike uh will be taking those to a children's charity where those those cards can be
given to them as a donation uh we can bring a little bit of joy to them we can create a whole
other generation of card collectors and you know just bring a little bit of joy back from cards that
otherwise would sit in a box in someone's closet and never be enjoyed the way that they're supposed to
or collected and uh maybe turn a profit later because there is that part of it too right um
and and then you're going to get some hustle in in exchange for that too so if you've decided to
give them up we'll do it case by case we'll we'll give you some hustle in exchange for those cards
and then you can again accumulate a hustle go go buy something that maybe you've been eyeing up
which could be another free break and you get to get more cards or another big hit or you get more
and you can trade them in for stuff that we fill the shop with and and and like really to dive into
the shop uh again not hard uh you can accumulate the hustle there's a whole uh dedicated channel group
that's called hustle and earn uh and all the information is there there's there's easy ways to
uh gain hustle through those simple collect commands through the bot in the discord um and it's very
very nicely laid out if you have a free boost a nitro to boost our channel um and we get to level
three it'll become even more fun uh but if you do boost our channel you actually earn another 10 hustle
uh through that collect mechanism every day which is a really nice big advantage and we truly do so
we appreciate that because the if we get to level three it becomes more fun and we can add in more
stuff right um all of it to make the experience better um but if like i said if you go into the
the channel that's labeled nft card shop you'll actually see a bunch of different graphics that
host what we are what we have in there in stock so uh if you flick through them you'll see and notice
that there's everything from older hockey cards like there's a uh 2021 metal wayne gretzky blast
uh up there for 2500 hustle i've been having my eye on that for a minute uh there's some other great
um prisms and autos and basketball baseball you name it we and we even gone down to um some really fun
little ones like um uh what are they called the garbage pail kids um those sticker cards they're a lot
of fun people love those there's some pokemon there's some magic the gathering cards uh and and like i said
there's even you can buy buy into a free divisional break even uh through nba or an nfl and then you're
guaranteed to be a part of that free break again um so much fun though what else am i missing here
there's there's uh superheroes like hro dc legendary superman cards um what else we got gosh there's there's
we've we have a fully stock there's w uh ufc rated rookie of um rafael fiese i'm gonna pronounce that
wrong uh what else we got what else we got guys there's so many things in this shop we have a
couple nfts we have um og a club nfts mofos the sanctuary a wasdy we have an mfer a proud lions and
invisible enemies a con club uh there's a couple founders passes for the um ovation platform uh
like a founder's pass a couple of those in there we have some rug dolls some simple freaks some
blockchain bandicoots um like there's a lot of content a lot of stuff that we feel could be for
anybody um bedtime creations nos timepiece ape society um nft draft like the list goes on so if
we think uh there's something there for for certainly for everybody and if the community
asks for it we'll definitely try to put some stuff in but it's really that easy and if you're a
capitalist and you want to try to trade buy sell um those cards that you've earned you can do that
through our buy our buy trade sell channel right there in the hustle and earn uh we've made it very
easy very user-friendly whether you're a veteran in the space or a beginner um we feel like we've
added a lot of easy steps to be involved um what else i i don't i don't think we've missed anything
we also love to use our um our partner um the pheromone bot if you guys haven't ever heard of
that uh and you love to do rumbles or you want to be involved in more giveaways or spaces uh it has been
really um critically pivotal in in our process of growth it helps bring in new members uh we've seen
some really great uh feedback and use from that stuff so if you turn on those notifications uh that's
something that you can use right away as well um and as we move forward we've we've already identified
some some key partnerships that we want to use like as we get through seasons uh that's something we
want to to really lean into our partnerships with our art team from gremgoyles uh you know nos and
nar dow nar af dow they're they're amazing over there they're doing um ready to like kind of same day i
don't want to call it instaprint but like you know um made to order merch that's probably the best way i
can say it uh and of course the pheromone bot which is really really fun and great to use
and keeps you keeps you engaged with with what's going on in the space and and their partners um
so overall easy to use lots of fun and we we've done this all before we've ever gone to launch with
a mint uh we've we've never really asked anything from our community besides just be involved and get
excited about what we're doing um you know i i want to i want to really quickly give a shout out to
mike our founder um one of the things that you know you want to be on the same page with but
uh and i hope he's not upset with me for talking about it but we we love our founder and we want
him to be a part of it so much and and he's had his fair share um maybe probably hit the lion's share
of of of health uh related issues uh and we wish him nothing but health and recovery through this
and we want him to be a part of it uh so emilio and i and the team have really tried to step up in
the absence of that until he's fully ready and and you know he's he's such a impact player for us he's
our subject matter expert when it comes to cards uh you know one thing that we really want to do
in after our first season too is get the education piece about you know if what do i do with all these
cards uh maybe you want to sell them maybe you want to send them away to get graded um maybe you've
always wanted to learn about that and those are some educational pieces we want to add in uh and
put that content for everybody yeah yeah emilio jump in don't let me uh get on my soapbox too long
yeah brother and i think i think that's uh a very important um i guess topic right to touch upon is
the educational piece of things right uh we obviously know that um whether whether you know whether you
guys know or not right the sport car the sports cars business is a real big business right and
and a lot of people aren't really off familiar with it in a sense right some are some aren't and
we want to show you guys that this is not just a hobby right or or you know just cards to throw away
and um you know and or or just you know not really care about them um right there's cards out there
that are really high valued then we're going to bring that educational piece to you right so like
so like pat said right whether you want to get a psa graded right we're going to be doing
educational videos on pretty much steps to step how to send them out to grade right everywhere
from um how you package it correctly right to um you know to like obviously sending it out to go
graded and things like that uh we're going to touch upon um you know where to look at um prices and
values right real time value um you know obviously touch on the different parallels and the specifics
of all the cards itself right so there's going to be a lot of educational videos going out um in the
near future obviously unless something that we haven't uh focused on as of right now right because
we are doing so much so many other stuff with the small team that we have but we obviously are going
to be throwing out those educational videos for all for everybody to really go ahead and um take a
piece on how they could uh not only make this a hobby but um an investment for their for their future
as well hell yeah that's like we always talk about that because like you know a bottom line up front
when i was brought into this i had never done uh breaks before i i i knew more about web 3 and
how to bring some love to that and and you know encourage it but mike's our guy you know whether it's
you know understanding teaching us like uh after this space is over um which we're going to try to
wrap up within the next half an hour is you know show you guys how much we've started to love it like
when i was a kid growing up um in canada here uh you know i used to get hockey cards and stuff for
christmas um you know and then i went to the military and you know became an adult and and you know
peter panda i tried to grow up and do some stuff but you know at a heart of heart uh this brought
me back to that like having fun as a kid and collecting stuff and and and like loving it having
fun with it and that's what this has brought to me where i really sunk my nails into this like i've
never vibed so hard with something i wanted to support um i have a lot of loves in this space a lot
of projects that i really enjoy um but this this kind of re lit a fire in me that kid you know um but
now i have knowledge as an adult that there is a lot of um there's a lot of money to be made and
but there's also a lot of fun right uh but you start to it's just like this space web3 the more
confident and the more safe you are the more fun it becomes and and the more real connections you can
make and i think that's what a lot of you know nft card reps has started to represent for me in the
space was it doesn't like what's that old like uh stereotypical saying like the you know um do what
you love and you never work a day in your life type attitude and that's what it started this is
what it started to become for me um and learning from mike and learning from emilio and getting
back into collecting stuff you know what i mean um i i dug out my old magic the gathering cards and
now i'm back into it with my cousin um i'm going to card shops and talking to people uh just this
past weekend i was i was super fortunate uh if you guys weren't in the room at the time
you know i i went to a real uh my first real card collection uh convention uh i you know i i got
the the business cards we're passing out stuff we're we're onboarding people to the new facebook
uh we're slowly getting everything streamlined for you guys to get it all out there all the time
um but it's brought that back that fun for me right and i think a lot of us started really in this
space not we're not having as much fun as we were before um and we want we're trying to bring that
back by genuine love for for what this is and um so like you know the irl stuff is fun uh and it's
bringing it back but we have to bring it the web 3 to it with us right we have to take a step back
to take two steps forward and look at who's in line with us and and bring that world to web 3 um and
it's been it's been so much fun and here's one of our big alphas for the day uh which is another
thing that we've invested in not only to to to lock arms with other people that are doing really
great stuff with collectibles in this space um but to to join in right to be a part of it uh and
this history so next thursday we're actually going to be going live amelio and i are going to be going
live with um his name is tg or that's his handle uh he does i actually should post it up to the top so
you guys know what i'm talking about uh he's an he's he's someone just like us who started doing
a live stream um opening packs of v cards v friend cards um and he he started it he's just he's not a
part of the team he's just he's like he's he's not really affiliated but he took the passion that he's
had for the product and for v friends and made it his own and he's gotten a lot of great feedback and
and um connection to the space by doing that and he's gotten gary v's attention from it and next
thursday there's actually a comic-con happening in new york um that they're going to be opening
two boxes they're doing a live break of the v friend cards the v1 so their first like the gary's
hand-drawn v friends um that now is turned into nfts with the v2s which are beautiful and now they've
started a card game and these battles um amelio and i have invested into being a part of that break
next thursday so we're actually going to be going live uh with tg or and um gary actually bought a
break from one of each of the boxes so we're going to be there with gary um we're going to hopefully
engage with him a little bit uh share the stage and we're going to be a part of a v v friends card
break of their of their v ones we're very very excited uh we can't wait to share that but also
to show how much fun this can be not only as an investment to um hold those v ones from the breaks
which they could be amazing uh they could be a phenomenal pull um maybe we don't get a good pull
but i think the investment as far as the experience goes is very fun um we're gonna start promoting
that we want our community there to um you know show up and show that we roll deep you know even
though we're just under 300 people in the community 300 active people can move mountains in this space
uh and that's what we want from our community right now is just follow us and support us with what we're
doing uh showing up for us is free but it means the world to us especially as a you know a kickstarter
we're getting off the ground with our project uh and we really hope that season one becomes a glowing
success um and we smash it and we want to rate like you know the right timing doesn't just happen by luck
it happens by hard work and part of this hard work is getting to these little milestones
and we'd love to have 300 strong show up for us next thursday when we watch tg tg or at this comic-con
do the live break uh have a lot of great influential people there in the space and and
show our product off um i think that's an immense value and an immense amount of fun um and if you
guys are in this room following and tracking and know what i'm talking about uh i think i think you
guys are going to want to be there and um i think it's really going to start putting nft card rips on
the map and people will start paying attention and uh and if not they're going to be a hell of fun
and it's going to grow our brand the way we want it to and it's going to bring a lot of positive
attention to the space as a whole because we've lost a lot of people in the space and we need to
bring them in um but it's going to be hella fun because we love breaking cards right we love ripping
we love getting that hit and getting that great card and getting graded and maybe flipping for a profit
or maybe you put it into your vault and you save it forever and it and it goes up in value all around
it's a win i can't wait for it um i'm going to find find that post i put up that that reps uh you
know tg or and everything that he's done because you know my that guy is is such a grinder i know how
much he does he's a he's a really cool dude to watch um let me post it up in the space it's one of his
last uh posts updating about the series one box break uh i think there's only two left maybe it's
already sold out by now um but so much fun to see these things happen and another glowing example of
how much fun box breaks are um and collectibles as a whole so um you know also go follow them get
get involved right it's so much fun yeah yeah sorry emilio i i ranted there didn't i no no worries all
good brother just wanted to give a special shout out to tg or who's actually in the audience and we
have a couple familiar faces as well mr folks down there what's up how's it going just wanted to go
ahead and give you guys a shout out uh just do me a favor guys go ahead and retweet the space like it
let's get some more people in here we're talking everything that has to do with nft car rips right
um and also get and also showing some love to those dedicated uh members and people that we're
connecting with so just wanted to mention that as well uh pat uh you know we talked about
right what we've done so far uh right we've talked about what we're doing now um how about we talk a
little bit about you know what we're going to be doing in the future right in the in the long
foreseeable future for nft car rips yeah for sure i i invited tg or up really quick and maybe if you
just wants to speak a little bit to it and then we're going to go to the future of nft car rips for
sure what's up fam sounds good sounds good hey were your uh were your ears burning yeah i saw i saw
the little blue circle around around your name so i just came running in what i missed brother thank
we we just pinned up we just pinned up your post um we're we're getting everybody ramped up for next
thursday and how freaking excited we are do you want to talk to it just for a minute sure
yeah so next thursday go for it man the stage is yours yeah i don't want to repeat too much
because i missed the beginning but uh next thursday starts new york comic con it's a four-day event
in new york city mainly around comic books and and comic book movies and anything like fantasy related
but um v friends the nft project i'm a big fan of i don't know if that's like a known thing around
here but uh v friends is going to have a booth there all four days however because this is such a
big event they're that friday and saturday and now sunday tickets are all sold out thursday still
available that is the main day that v friends official gary v and everyone said thursday is the
is the day like they want did the community to come out and and see them that gary will be there
he'll be taking pictures with everyone he is i think he's speaking there and they're teaching about
the new um the new game uh tcg game they have out and that is blowing up right now um so the box
break specifically is there's two sets of cards in the v friends world one is series one and then
there's series two which is called compete and collect the box break that we're doing is for series
one there was only a thousand boxes made only 800 sold um i acquired two of these boxes they go for
about fifty five hundred to six thousand dollars per box in each box is only 10 cards so very much
valuable um purely collectible there's no gameplay for series one they're just you know the nft project
has a series one and series two and so the series one nft these are the original drawings of gary
they're just doodles but they're you know they're the drawings that he turned into the nft project so the
cards are just the doodle drawings where series two nfts and cards are actual like animated
characters of that were created from the doodles so series one uh box there's 10 cards per box that
range from cores all the way to a one of one there's a guaranteed one of one in each box we sold spots
10 spots at five seven five hundred and seventy five dollars per spot and what we do is we kind
of shuffle the shuffle names that i had normally when i do my live stream which is teacher collector
corner on twitch um we have a lot of fun on there follow along and we sell boxes and do box breaks and
community battles um twice a week sundays and wednesdays and then sometimes spontaneously other
days but um we're gonna mix it up mix up the names in a hat we're gonna pull the the names from the hat
and then as we pull your name you get the next card and we just kind of go in order um there's a
guaranteed one of one sometimes there's two sometimes there's the autographed card and then there's rares
very rares and epics which are the other different rarity tiers um so it's gonna be a lot of fun we did
we sold two boxes out gary v bought into both boxes he has one spot in each box um and we're
gonna do it live from comic-con but there's an unofficial event at night thursday night that
we're gonna be doing the rip at um and i'm gonna live stream the whole thing as well
awesome awesome brother i appreciate you going into details um about that i did want to ask you a
question right um kind of from from a different perspective that's not um the nft card rips team
right so you know you mentioned about box breaks right clearly is a big market for it specifically
when people are paying uh near to 600 right for the box breaks itself right um i didn't want to ask
you right well obviously i i know this answer but i just want um just you know somebody else to give
their perspective right is there money in this uh not only hobby but alternative investment as well
uh yeah so so as far as the nft side we all know that nfts are you know there there's there's up and
down uh there was a lot of trade there's still money to be made it's it's all about where you buy right
you're bought you make money at your buy price um but for the cards the physical collectibles
especially of v friends which is really my only um area of expertise at this point so sticking to just
that um you know i have a whole stream that we buy we acquire boxes and we sell spots and we open
them and some cards are worth five figures multiple five figures so there's definitely money to be made
on a micro transaction i mean if go to ebay and check the sold listings of v friends cards you know
just type in v friends v ee friends cards or v friends collectibles and it's just blown up every
you'll see tons dozens of transactions every single day um even cards that you can get that are the most
common people are buying because you need a deck in order to play the game and the game keeps evolving
and now that the v friends are streaming on fanatics live several times a week i mean they sold like
fifty thousand dollars worth of cards and vending machines and they have new pins coming out so
um there's the ecosystem is at least in v friends world is is very alive and well um you know i wouldn't
be able to do the streams and and promote these things if if it wasn't um people are interested and
when they go on live on fanatics they sell out instant i haven't been able to buy into anything yet
because it sells out so instantly so yeah um there there is definitely a a hustle um money game that
can be made um in this world for sure yo oh sorry amelia did you want to sum up on that did you want to
follow up no i just wanted to say you know you know obviously thank you for that detailed explanation
right because i think that's one of the things what we're trying to uh do here right at nft card
rips is not only right provide the value but also um explain it and and really uh share that knowledge
right on on how this could also be um not only a hobby right but a true alternative investment right
for for an individual so yeah i just wanted to say that nice yeah and i i want to echo a lot of that
that love and respect because you know there's that business part of it that obviously you know you
you want to do well in it um personal question um what made you start going unaffiliated and going
with v friends were you a community member first like with the nft uh what was your inspiration and
and a little bit of a part tour i know i'm hitting you with a bunch but what was your favorite
collectible as a kid that that you think kind of got you on this road in this space now because like
i i'm 37 years old and when i was young and like hockey cards were super dope uh and i always keep
putting this out there that i'm gonna get pogs up here one day talking about their collectible stuff
like that used to be fire for me when i was like a little kid and then magic the gathering those were
super dope like as a tcg like a trading card game uh which now v friends is doing and it's just super
dope to see like the you know it feels like i was just saying it before you came into the space where
it was like man i feel like a kid again and that's what like has me vibing so hard with nft card
rips and what we do but i also really felt that the first time i saw what you were doing and you
know when we started connecting a little bit i was like this guy seems like he gets it like he's just
like you you're not a member you're not trying to you're not affiliated with with v friends but you
took passion and your love of what they're doing and you've made your own stream you unbox now i think
it's brilliant and i love what you do like do you i i mean i know i'm i can ramble but like uh
favorite collectible and and and the why behind why you started doing that even though you weren't a team
member uh so for the collectible part question i you know i didn't know it would be collectible
later but i was a comic book kid i like comic books i still do uh this will not be my first comic
con that i go to i've always kind of um loved that and you know now that it's blown up in pop culture
um you know it brings out that early love for it into new love and that's so uh comic books i
definitely was into hockey cards as well i was a little bit into pokemon i never got into magic i
didn't i still don't know much about it even though i bought a starter pack to try to learn
it it overwhelms me a little bit and it takes some time to build it and all the different um
sets that come out but um favorite collectible as a kid uh i loved toys specifically um ninja
turtles i was super into that we're around the same age i'm 36 so that was huge in my childhood
the turtles favorite turtle real quick uh growing up it was always raf i guess because he was kind of
like i i'm like the black sheep of my family so he was always the rude one right you know he's cool
but rude that's always like kind of how i was or was treated so he was always favorite even though
mikey is probably you know everyone wants to hang with mikey um mikey all day right so i kind of lean
towards that because everyone wants to be his friend or have a friend like him so those were my favorite
collectibles as far as why i got into it honestly the main reason is i knew it so if you look at my
pfp that's my spectacular gold um v friend it's the compassionate catfish that's one of the three
v friends original um series one nfts that i had so i got into it because i i followed gary and i found
him through the garage selling thing that he promotes because that's what i used to do is is like go to
garage sales and flip so i kind of always had that interest and turned it into my actual business
that pays for my house and shit um and so i just i knew it i always followed the project and then when
they came out the series one cards they sold originally in a blind dutch auction for i think it
was almost 2200 dollars per box now they're at like 55 to 6 000 but it was too high of an entry point
when i put in bids i was a few hundred dollars off so i didn't get any so any series one cards i've
gotten um i've had to buy um at retail or msrp the series two compete and collect cards you got a free
box cards every series two nft you minted and i i was able to mint nine or ten so i got ten nine or
ten boxes for free and so i started opening them and having fun having that childhood feeling
that i used to have right and then um there was a very big uh v friends unaffiliated at the time
influencer jeremy shout out to jeremy um knows is k-n-o-w-s uh he's the man he now works for v friends
so i saw him build completely unaffiliated became known and loved by everyone in the v friends
community and then he got a job that's not my aspiration is to to work for v friends but he
i went on his twitch stream once and opened cards and i was like this is fun and i had been dabbling
with the idea of starting a podcast completely unrelated to nfc projects but i didn't know if
i was interesting or entertaining enough to do it so i started with the cards because i was like
the cards of the entertainment it's not so much me and you know people are going to be may tune in
and it really just started for the five or six other hardcore and uh v friend card collectors because
when it first came out people were opening them and they weren't valuing them because they got them
for free so uh i was doing it for the people for like five or six in a core group of collectors
that were really into off the jump and then i just started live streaming it and then you know it was
really to build my confidence to be on screen or talk in spaces on a podcast or whatever and then it
just kind of kept growing so it wasn't i didn't intend to start a unaffiliated v friend card or card
related twitch stream it just kind of happened and kept growing and i realized how much i love doing it
i had so much fun and still have so much fun on every stream doing breaks ripping packs ripping and
all of it and we've turned it you know i've kind of taken on a co-host uh ij rob who's a good friend
doesn't that far from me huge massive collector especially of series one v friends cards and you
know he we built a website we now have a a website where you can buy while we're live we have grading
services we became an affiliate uh um i'm sorry an authorized dealer of cgc so we can offer grading
services um you know a lot of time we branched out to other tcg like disney or kana we've done pokemon
um i even bought we had a vintage night where i bought a sealed box of 1994 mortal combat cards and
we had an absolute blast opening those so we've kind of are branching out as well but v friends is
always going to be the heart and soul of this stream
awesome bro awesome yeah i you know i've definitely seen you around right i i'm a i'm a holder of to be
friends uh series two and uh and a v con when uh one of the series two is my girl one of them is mine
um but yeah definitely uh you know it's kind of crazy i'm kind of i kind of come from a little bit
of kind of like the same background where i kind of started this as a hobby inside there was a lot of
potential in doing it right i i found i found interest in in in everything right same thing
that you mentioned right the grading portion the the the you know the streaming the breaking
everything right i don't only break i also uh you know now buy off ebay you know and and collect
through there and send to grade and things like that so um it was good to hear from somebody else
right um their experience and how and and you know how they uh really came to in a way right
make a living out of this right um so i just wanted to just wanted to say thank you for that
as well and thank you for passing by man um you know i i do want to ask uh uh if you have any
questions for uh nft card rips right i know you've know uh you've known about us uh for a little bit
now and and maybe haven't had the time to um you know get the full spec right we just ran through it a
little bit um earlier on in the space uh but i know we do have some new people in here that may be
interested so if you have any questions for us uh by all means you know
yeah man uh can you hear me i had to flip you over to uh to the card am i still live
yeah all good cool so i mean i'm sure you've gone over it so so i know the last time i was on a space
you had a ton of different people and a ton of different projects on here is it something where
are you you have your you have your own project you're promoting projects like can can you just
kind of give me the you know the intro the elevator pitch or whatever you want to call it to what
exactly nft card rips does so that i can get more involved or learn more about it for sure of course so
right so we do our our regular game day radio spaces right uh we do it every week wednesday 11 p.m eastern
time um the reason we do this right is not only uh to showcase us but to showcase other projects
right that are truly building in the space um so some of these projects are are a little bit close
um to us so that's that's kind of that's kind of to touch upon that question right um today
specifically right we focus a lot of nft card rips um in this space and pretty much just um talking
everything that has to do with you know cards and trading and things of that sort so we dove into a lot
of that earlier um what we what we're looking to do right is we're looking to build a brand right
that revolves around not only sports card right just trading cards and trade and you know memorabilia
in general right uh collectibles in general um and we want to we want to build a community where
uh right we we give value to our nft holders right so um a couple of utilities right that we that we're
uh that we're going to be giving right is obviously right we're going to be having team breaks right
for those people um and then and uh so the way it works right is like we're going to have uh the 32
teams of the nfl in our collection right uh i think there's about 46 each um of each team right so we're
going to be having team breaks right we're going to be opening those boxes live on the youtube like we
mentioned before and uh we're pretty much going to be uh sorry i'm getting a couple pings here um
or we're pretty much going to be um giving those back to our members right so the 100 the 150 that
you're going to be paying initially right it's going to be used also as a as a team break for you
right um so it's going to be like i said a hunt over it's going to be 160 000 in breaks
um right another thing that we're going to be doing is right this is our nft i'm just going to be used
as a membership pass right so pretty much holding our nft we're going to be having a loyalty reward
uh program where you're going to be able to use um hustle tokens right and hustle points right and
we're going to have uh staking and things of that sort right to include a little bit of the web 3
uh culture into uh card collecting right so with those hustle points you're going to be able to
use our marketplace which our marketplace is always going to be filled with you know sports cards
trading cards in general nfts right uh memorabilia and things of that and things of that sort
so that's really what we're going to be touching up on uh as well uh in the web 3 portion right um
and then you know we talk about obviously you know hosting special events for our community and things
like that we talked a little bit about how you know the business will be sustainable
um for the for the long-term future and how we're going to be generating revenue as well
uh through obviously more division breaks pull boxes uh things of that sort uh let me bring you
up as a speaker and and yeah you know i uh just to touch up a little bit upon um you know the
foreseeable future on what we want to do is we want we want to eventually have our own uh trading
platform right so buy sell and trade where uh you know our holders not just our holder anybody right
but our but our members in specific uh will be able to lift you know list those cards up there
right and it's going to be um kind of like you know the ebay of of you know trading you know trading
collectibles right um that's kind of the focus on we want to focus on long term not to say that it's
going to happen um within the next you know uh you know a postman or you know week or or year right
it's just something that we're looking to do in the long future but yeah basically our nft will be
used as a membership pass not only to uh get into these breaks uh these team breaks that are that
we're going to have but um also to uh you know give them some uh reward points and have and have them
uh you know use that uh to buy more cards and things of that sort
tj i don't know we i don't know if we lost you there
all right i think i think uh we might have lost tg uh tg air here but uh pat can you hear me
yo yo mic check mic check
okay oh you can you guys hear me okay cool i i i know the space is rugging me it's not you guys
it's definitely me um sorry about that uh i hopefully um you know tg or thank you i just saw
your your post your your message there thank you for what you're doing and and what you bring to the
space thank you for coming up with us today and and sharing a little bit of your experience
um you are killing it i love what you do i love following you and i'm definitely putting that out
into the atmosphere that someday maybe we can do a space together and and go live and or i'll meet
you at a comic con i know i was so fired up the other night when we were chatting in dms about
getting down to the comic con in in new york next thursday to be
there live and direct to to do the box break um i don't think i can get my dog sitter uh like i
mentioned which is unfortunate but um you know i'm so happy that you guys sold out um all the spots
for both those v1 breaks and i can't wait to be a part of it uh i'll be here at my computer
watching live um you know the the excitement that i get from this and the experience is everything
uh guys if you're here listening to everything that tg was talking about uh go give him a follow
go give him a like check out his content um i pinned up uh something he shared about following gary and
what it looks like you know becoming that you know that passionate member and and getting all of the
merch and the stuff and the cards and how that looks and it's just it's a fun little piece of content
that he's created uh you know from day one to now and it's it's great i think your charisma and the
energy you bring to the space is a hundred percent what we need across all platforms and and what we
you know if we had 500 of you in our community uh we would be already in mars we'd be outer space it
would be absolutely crazy um so thank you for making time for us um i'm going to check back in
amelio did you get your co-host back can you hear me okay uh don't got co-host but i'm here brother i
hear you fine oh snap okay i'll give it to you if you want uh i didn't do cool um and and you know
we're so excited because we have three spots uh we have one in the first box break and we have two spots
in the second box um so we're really excited we hope that you guys want to join us and you um go live
with us when they do live with fanatics where they do their stream um go go check it out all the stuff
that you need to know about that and what they're doing you can go through tg years and we're going
to keep all of the information flowing through the ncr uh you know uh x account and of course in our
discord um let's start wrapping up i think that was a really really great pop-in visit uh and we've
gotten a lot of great information out honestly i'm just getting super excited to crack open and rip
those 10 boxes that i have over sitting uh in my little prepared area to go live uh i'm going to
be doing that in our discord in the lounge our vc our open vc uh so if you guys want to come uh be
just watch you can uh if you want to ask us questions or continue a conversation we're there
for that that's what we want i'm going to show you guys some really cool stuff that i picked up
um at the convention that i was at last weekend on saturday at the amg card collector convention
in halifax um but yeah so if you guys are are in this room right now um oh yeah sure go ahead
emilio yeah but i just want to say uh before we close the space i know you probably didn't hear me
i did touch upon um you know the future the future the foreseeable future on uh what we were
trying to build long term right um and i talked about the uh buy sell and trade platform so um i
do want to touch a little bit up on that if that's cool oh my god yes yeah we will not leave the space
until that's done um but if any of you are in this space uh you have not joined the discord uh go ahead
go into the discord go into our gen chat ping me or one of the team uh you're going to get your
whitelist role which is called our all-star role and you're also going to get 500 of our hustle coins
uh which you can use in the shop or you can just start accumulating those and maybe buy something uh
trade them in at our discord shop um but yeah let's talk about that and don't forget uh before the
end of this space emilio is going to be doing the giveaway um which is awesome so this is probably
your last call uh to go ahead and engage with that and then um that may be the last thing we do but i
definitely want to give you time to talk about the future uh before we cut it out we've been on here
for just about an hour and a half and it's been great honestly um we needed this space to really
start getting our content and our history out there to in the ears and eyes of our holders our future
holders i should say as we gear towards uh season one and maybe we can touch on that and when that
might happen as well so just to give you guys a bit of a framework to where we're going but yeah
emilio definitely take the stage um and let's talk about the future awesome brother dope so um right
we mentioned this buy sell trade platform right and you know what we're trying to build here right um
and this is something again i want to reiterate right this is not something um that we're looking
to do right after postman right um it this is something that will take time to build right to do it
properly um and something that we know that we could build as well right with the dev team that
we have in our at our disposal um but right we want to build a buy sell trade platform for
um not just our members right not just our our nft holders right but pretty generally for everybody
right um to be able to go ahead and list um anything that has to do with collectibles right
how we talk about um you know actual jersey we talk about sports cards we talk about maybe even
funko pops right um things of that sort um and you guys can list it at a you know at a discounted
price from ebay right i believe if i'm not mistaken ebay wants to i think charges i think 13 percent
right um you know as a listing fee right we want to drop that down and then specifically drop that
down for our members as well our nft holders right so again the details are still to be um discussed
and refined but this is something that we want to do right this is just going to be another way to
generate revenue um and and you know also we we want to save you guys money from those ebay listing
as well right because um as like as i mentioned right 30 percent is kind of high um so we want to
bring that down for you guys a little bit um and really just you know have have you guys a spot to
go and specifically um look for certain things right i know on ebay um things could get tricky and
there's a lot of you know different you know obviously everything's listed there right um not
to say that we want to compete with ebay uh but we definitely want to uh provide a platform that's
um easier to use um and then specific for um collectibles of the of of these sorts right um
so that's a little bit of what we want to do right long term um obviously we talked about the short
term right um a little bit of you know staking for the web 3 um you know our loyalty reward program
things like that but we obviously have visions um far far more than that that we're going to be
diving into as well yo i love that and that's something uh we haven't talked a lot about so
that's really good uh especially because you listen to this this space back on the recording
um for all of our members it's huge um and it's definitely where we want to take where we're going to
take nft card rips so um i i've loved this space um you know we haven't taken our time to
make an nft card rips centric space where you guys can get all the information about us um and and where
we're really looking to go and and our partners that we're locking arms with and moving forward with
to grow what we love um card breaking um you know collecting sports all of it um everything web 3 too
right like we it was great to hear from tg or uh who's now gone but you know uh and and having
mentors in this space is huge like i learned not only from emilio and our team and mike about cards and
about the space but other people that are doing other really awesome shit too right um and i i think
that maybe let's let's let's do a two minute warning uh if you guys haven't engaged with uh
game day radio the the giveaway tweet up the top there all the way to the right uh go ahead and do
that we're gonna do um i'm gonna do a quick song no you don't let's skip the song we'll do that at
the end for the credits and get you on your way um if you weren't listening when i said it at the
beginning we're going to be doing some live free breaks where we're going to be having some fun in
the discord i got a whole whack of boxes to open i'm going to show you some of the stuff i picked up
for my personal collection which was kind of fun and unique and um we're just going to chop it up
in in the lounge in our in our vc and um if anyone this is your kind of your last call for questions

we're gonna that we're using is because i know the twitter picker is not working i just can't remember
i know you told me i know you told me last time simple years okay yeah that okay okay simple years
and it's yeah and then it's i i have been i actually just loaded it up to try it it's a little different
than the twitter picker but for those of you that are in spaces nowadays you know that um twitter
picker is useless now uh you have to move over to a different giveaway where you're using the links
for the giveaway um so if any of you are doing spaces uh simpliers is the way to go um it's been
quite effective and useful so just another evolution of the space um go give it a try and we're going
to run one winner is going to get that pack of cards up on that pin tweet uh super easy to engage
with just follow the follow what you got to do uh get some hustle if you guys aren't in the discord

what we're doing as well i know i know you know like i said right we've been through a lot of
projects right and i've also been you know holders and members of projects and and it's always good to
ask the right questions right and and you know sometimes great people don't don't have an answer
i want to be that person that does give you an answer and if i don't have it i'll go ahead and
get that answer for you so uh by all means i i in a way i challenge you guys right to ask any
questions right because um it's fully transparent here um right um all of us are docs you guys can
even you know click through our profile pictures and see pictures of us uh so i just i didn't want
to mention that because uh if there is anybody that maybe is um you know has a doubt and just doesn't

about all the names there so anybody that not i'm going to go ahead and give a quick follow so
um i am the nar father i am from nar as fuck down i'm the uh founder uh co-founder we have four
founders so what we do is we pool nfts with ip rights uh for print on demand merchandise um so that
is taking your nfts and putting it on any hundreds of different items uh we give our members 35
percent discounts on all of the things that we make and we're also structured to share 95 of profits
of profitability so we're growing organically uh we are uh continually adding items and vendors and
getting better at what we are doing um we're very nimble and able to adjust and pivot with trends
um and we have a polygon launch coming up uh the date yeah which of course yeah i did set one and
my dev got sick so ran into that um but now art's done contract's done i am comfortable we are also
going to be opening our mints on friday the 13th so i have a special get gnarly space uh that is uh
going to be with the founders and want to invite all partners and everybody so uh come out and have a
good time we're going to have some bounties uh that you're not going to know which nfts they're
attached to until we're minted out but we got some one-on-ones we got some customs we got some
merch we got some coffee that we're going to be throwing in as well too to make it uh fun and
exciting and uh i'm going to go and drop this up in the nest give you a little tiny taste of
hi kiddo my kiddo woke up and i didn't say hi right away but uh give you a little taste of what this art
is uh gonna look like so nar um if you're because for those that don't know the nar uh af dow pass
is actually on solana and now you're going to polygon on this launch is that it will holders of
those passes have any different criteria or um any sort of different minting options like for as
holders or is it just fresh like what can we expect uh on the 13th oh yeah so the uh solana
collection is is part of the the collection um the this is an expansion to polygon so we're going
with uh we have a thousand total pieces we have 333 that are on uh solana i believe in the solana
chain that's why i chose it initially and i certainly seen the activity and just connections
and it's part of our belief in omni chain like we're chain agnostic um so uh that there there is
not going to be a difference between the perks or utilities anyone who holds a solana pass becomes a
legendary nar og in discord which is going to give you extra perks because you are the og supporters of
the foundation of our business which has taken 10 months to really build as businesses do so um
yeah uh very very excited about that so my 33 matic which right now is like maybe 20 usd so our whole
goal is to uh reduce that barrier to entry just make it to where everyone has that equal opportunity
uh you get me and my team with the dow so there's a lot as far as just uh business and business
administration and customer archetypes and the sales process just all the things that i've learned
in my time and my training and my stuff in in the cannabis industry uh i'm applying it and it's here for
you to let's grow together yes kiddo okay i gotta go i say hi to my little girl but i dropped a couple
things and uh appreciate you guys so much um like honestly yeah like you guys are my family and
you warm my heart just it's uh this is why i'm here every day is the people that uh that i see that
are giving me the support right back and just good humans you know we find we found each other
damn right damn right i mean i know amelio's got something he'll let go first
no bro i just wanted to say you know it's funny because we were talking about you earlier and and
how we obviously look to do a partnership with you for um our merch and print on demand so um shout
out to you much love to you um i also wanted to mention um so i tried running the the simple
the simpler uh giveaway picker but uh the person wasn't in the space and it doesn't allow me to redo it
unless we do a premium so what we are gonna do is um i collected everybody's name in here right
follow uh right uh i tried checking for a retweet on the space in the post right but um no worries
guys just do me a favor um you're not following nft card reps already just go ahead and do so i'm
gonna do a wheel of names i'm just gonna let it spin um shuffle it a couple times and you know
whoever wins it wins it um and that's what we'll do for today awesome yes sir yes sir and like i love
this like we i think we hold five or six of the ner af solana passes now um and yeah we were talking
about you earlier we were doing some shout outs as far as you know quality humans doing some really
great stuff and we don't we don't chain discriminate either um there's there's that excuse with the way
the the technology set up now you know poly and eth wallets are the same so if you think you don't
have a poly wallet you absolutely do if you have an eth wallet and then it's really not hard to get
set up with solana either so don't let that be a barrier in your mind to not go check out some of
these projects that were that were you know we really believe in and the humans behind them um
phenomenal stuff and i echo everything that emilio said uh huge love and respect for that
because emilio you know i didn't know about you before emilio so um thank you for that and i can't
wait i can't wait till we're at a point now where we we can get that made to order ready to go merch
um when we after our first season but you know we wanted to show some love and support beforehand
and uh we got some passes and i've been playing with the idea of putting one in the shop uh i i
didn't want to give any up but maybe we should um are those are any of those mintable still though
those um those passes on solana or are is that over uh there are still i have to go check last check
there were 36 of them left uh so we're okay getting definitely getting down to the uh the wire on
those so they're all up on magic eden if uh there you go so that's your last maybe opportunity before
the 13th to get that og legendary status so maybe a good time to go get a solana wallet if you don't
have one and pick up an raf dow pass um before the 13th right um yep so we're we're looking at a lot
of great stuff right uh gremgoyles get your eth wallet loaded up because they're going to mint
on friday the 13th uh for the holders and then a couple days after they're going to be going to
non-holders um nar get your soul if you want to get one of those af dow passes through solana
and then have your poly your your matic ready to rock and roll for their their uh launch on
their connecting i can i call it a collecting uh adjacent collection maybe i could call it that uh
on on on matic uh to get those um hard hard mark did you want to say something i didn't forget about
