Full Transcription
Thank you. GM, GM, I have been sending speaker advice to everyone, not sure, who will be joining.
GM, I think Gio will be joining as well from the Wassey account.
All right.
I think the invitation is sent.
I will send it again.
Waiting for our host to join as well.
How's your day going?
Pretty good so far.
How about yours?
Great as well. This is Honey on the account, by the way.
Really glad to have you here.
I'm just running some errands,
so it's going to be a bit noisy for me.
But yeah, really excited to chat with you.
Awesome. No worries. Glad to be here.
In the meantime, I'm just going to be sharing the link in our Discord and other group chats
and so trying to gather people.
Awesome.
All of the time. Thank you. Good wasi everybody
Gdomain
Gwasi
Gmonad
We have them all
How you doing?
Good good Just vibing. Vibing and wasi grinding. Grinding in the blender.
Love to hear it. Chilling in the fridge, hopefully.
Yo, small thing, frog.
Here it's gotten really warm, so to be honest, I would give anything to be a little wasi
chilling in the fridge.
This is too much.
Here it was snowing two weeks ago and now it is like summer weather.
So yeah, I just want to be a small thing.
It's a short life, but a good one.
The life of a frog.
Will Smallting be joining us?
Not sure if I should send him an invite as well to speak. If you want to request up, if not, it's more than time.
He should come up as a speaker and uh maybe he'll talk you never know
maybe we'll have a nice surprise Gio, are you a speaker still?
It's like, I think my app is bugged.
Yep.
I'm here.
I was just muted. Yeah, it just muted. Can you hear me now?
Yeah, no, my app is just acting weird.
When I tried to accept the co-host thing, it kicked me off completely.
Since your co-host thing, Vital, actually it's the both of you.
Okay, I'll try it.
Yeah, no, you show us speakers.
Yeah, all good.
Okay, nice. I think it worked.
So who all is joining from the All Domains team?
From the team, I don't think there's
anyone joining because they are traveling to Istanbul
for crossroads.
But we have a co-host that's usually handling this.
And I'm just here to emotionally support
when I work in the background.
But I am not sure what's going on,
if anything happened to her. and I might have to host this
just give me a couple more minutes no worries Thank you. So, Gio, how's it going in your world today?
If you're talking to me, it's all going well.
Or Gio?
Anyone.
I'm eating some yogurt right now.
Nice.
Enjoy.
What kind of yogurt? Yeah. Some, uh, some Greek yogurt with some,
wait, maybe it's not Greek. I don't know. A cultured man. Get it. That was a yogurt.
Nice. Nice, dude. Yep. Yep. Yep. I put some, I put some nuts in there, some granola, some goji berries.
Wow, goji berries.
Is that the real thing?
Oh, yeah.
Full of antioxidants.
Wow.
Got to get those oxidants out of me you know yeah you would hate to be oxidizing that's um you know never ideal
wow i don't think i've ever had these i just googled it
they taste good you know they're really good the ones i had are like they're dried so they're like
a little hard i was hoping the yogurt would help kind of reconstitute them a little bit but it's
so they're like a bit chewy but they're good you Fresh ones would be, a little fresher would be better, but gotta take what you can get.
That's the truth, my friend. Where do they grow?
No idea. No idea.
J.M., can you hear me?
Yes, yes. I'm not getting clear. I was getting worded. jm can you hear me oh i am sorry about that guys um dot jm welcome to coffee meet with wasi this morning um our
special guest um love the turnout love the turnout. Just a little note before we get
started. Sorry about my late arrival. This is an all domain space. All domains is your space for
dot everything, dot everyone, dot anyone, dot anything. If you would like your own special
TLD, definitely get in touch with the team. Otherwise, we started with .pour. Our home
is on Solana, so we have .solana. We have our OGs represented with .monkey for monkey
DAO, .bonk, .letsbonk for bonk, .serve for Dean's List DAO. We also have expanded to other chains on SVM. We have .turbo for Eclipse, .soon for Soon.
We are now on Monad with .mon and .nad.
And we also have .sonic in the mix now.
And that's warming up.
So there's something for everybody.
Some of them are free for the first six months. So check it out. Also, as soon as you subscribe for a domain, you get points with the all domains experience. Those points turn into rewards come TGE time. So get involved.
get involved um okie dokie um sorry i um i'm just looking is this mon monkey rothchild whoa
monkey rothchild i love that name anyways um morning monkey um are you speaking on behalf
of wasi or there is somebody on the wasi account as well. Yeah, no, we have me here on my personal account.
We have Gio under the Wassey account.
And then SmallTang is just listening, I guess.
Yeah, no, but I'm speaking mainly on behalf of me and Gio.
Okay, awesome.
All right, so the way we like to start this out is we like to get a little background.
The way we like to start this out is we like to get a little background.
So let's start with you, Monkey.
So let's start with you, Monkey.
What did you do before you got into Web3?
And how did you get into Web3?
I don't know.
What did I do before I went to Web3?
I mean, I was like, I've had normal jobs, like real estate, a few things kind of like
in the investment world.
And I got into it. I don't know, I think I kind of eased my
way into it over like, you know, a couple years back in like 2018 or so. I read a book called
The Creature from Jekyll Island, which kind of just made me skeptical on the dollar and like, you know, Federal Reserve Banking.
I should say like central banking.
And so, yeah, that's kind of like my origin story.
You know, I just started kind of like looking at Bitcoin as maybe like a good alternative and then fell down the rabbit hole.
And here I am, however many years later, still here.
So, yeah.
Sweet. Awesome. And did you get caught up in nfts at any point yeah i mean
yeah i i run wasi so i'm definitely still caught up um but yeah i mean like you know i've been
involved since at least pretty early not like the super early days, but obviously being in crypto, like I saw them happen.
I was actually thinking the other day, what are my earliest NFTs?
And I don't know if they'd be like the earliest, but I think like began punks are like maybe close to it, which are still like half alive.
But yeah, no, I've always been interested in NFTs and then, you know, was just kind of a fan of Wasi's and Verspra and had talked to him and some members of the team.
And eventually after kind of like some issues were had with the original team, I came in and took over Wasi.
And here we are two years later and we've done a lot since then.
Sweet.
Okay, great.
And Gio, how did you get into
the wonderful world of Web3?
I had a friend who's into it,
you know, had heard about it,
heard about Bitcoin since it was like
under a dollar.
At that point, it was
just magic internet money that was, you know, worthless.
It was just, you know, a cute,
cute little thing happening in the internet that was no one really cared
about.
Kind of didn't really think about it very much for a few years.
Then I had a friend into it.
And after talking to him for like a year he finally
sent me like one dollar a bitcoin helped me set up a wallet and then that just kind of
blew my mind and changed everything from there that was 2016 or so 15 16 and then uh
yeah like 20 i pretty much just ramped up from there, like into the
2017 bull market and, uh, never left. Gotcha. Now I'm stuck forever.
Stuck forever. Yeah. I did say that the last, um, space we held, I said, you know, no matter what,
like we can't get away because somebody was
saying oh he went away for a year and came back in like we're always part of this somehow um
uh okay cool so let us get into washi what is washi who wants to speak on this first? I think we're still trying to figure it out.
It's definitely small. It definitely dies every 14 days.
But the best answer would be Wasi is kind of like an idea created by Maru.
Back, gosh, I always screw up the year. I'm pretty tough.
Chronologically, my brain doesn't work well.
I said I've been working on it for two years.
I've definitely been working longer than that.
So I couldn't tell you exactly the year.
I think 15, 16, maybe.
Wasis were made.
And I don't know.
It just kind of became, like, really central to, like, crypto Twitter lore.
And so when NFTs rolled around, you know, I immediately was, like, telling Smallting that, youting that he should make some, blah, blah, blah.
And a year later, I ended up working with the team in a divine type way.
But yeah, I don't know.
So Wasi is just a super crypto native thing.
It has a super large audience you know dating back years and years
and years a lot of ogs are fans um yeah and then that's kind of like wasi as an idea uh and then
as a project you know we do a lot um we do like a lot of charity type stuff we have um
a project on solana which is like our core project
um we obviously have our dot waspy domains with you guys on solana and then we also have a barra
chain collection that we just came out with um which is kind of an expansion of our barras
one of our eight bases um all on barra chain and then we plan to expand to other chains in the future.
At this point, it's pretty public
that we'll be expanding to Monad.
So yeah, that's like a little bit about Wassey,
though it goes back so many years, it's pretty deep.
So there's no way to do it justice, really,
in like a short talk.
Okay, well, we have 50 more minutes to dig into
it so we'll get down to a not so short talk i think um so okay so uh let's start with um
let's start with um your beginnings and and i guess your nft collection on solana um when did when did that
mint yeah so i thought i was gonna be able to avoid it but we'll do the whole story um so it's
actually like kind of a complicated story uh the way it all went but i'll just take it kind of from square one um yeah so originally the project
was set to meant on ETH back in 21 22 I don't know um the years all just blend together here
I feel like so I was not a part of the team I was just a fan um started helping the team a couple
weeks before meant just kind of like trying to get everything together, blah, blah, blah.
Final push type stuff.
After Mint, we had a lot of problems.
Like the artists, you know, for lack of like a better term, just really rugged.
Things were not as they should have been.
And so there was kind of a large demoralization amongst the team.
And so I kind of rose up and said, hey, you know, I'll lead it.
And, you know, people said, you know, let's do it.
And so we obviously got rid of some people who like kind of had fallen short, if you will.
Kept quite a few people on the team.
And then literally just rebuilt everything from zero.
We had some money, not much.
Spent all of that redoing the art completely from scratch.
Spent a lot more of small things, money, some of mine.
Got everything ready and then re-dropped on Solana.
So the Solana collection never really minted per se.
They were more just given to people who bought the original NFTs on ETH.
And it was actually a two-for-one kind of swap to be specific.
So the Solana collection is our core collection.
And, you know, we have the Baruchain collection
and like I said, the Monad collection coming. So the way we look at it is, you know we have the bear chain collection and like i said the monad collection coming so
the way we look at it is you know wasis are a very crypto native thing and and kind of known
for infesting um so having these like kind of different versions of them is pretty cool and
it allows us to kind of like build a bridge to these communities like barot chain or monad um
to bridge to these communities like barachain or monad um and one you know bring our culture
and our community there but also to pick up new fans um and yeah and things like that
got it got it so it's a very phoenician story this this wasi lore or origin story right so as you say like you you die every like 14 days and come back to life
through the ashes so um um cool so all right so you started on eth we've all kind of made that
mistake i definitely have um i definitely did um it cost me a lot of money i was not happy um anyways nft university right
about now and then exactly you know the vibes geo um and then you uh did a two for one swap
so yeah we called it like a re-drop um a re-drop yeah you know i mean we just kind of like made up that term um but yeah and so like
why we chose solana i think is is pretty interesting and i think like it was a little
controversial at the time our community is always super super super supportive but they definitely
question us which is like we would want that we we definitely want that and so there was a few
people i think who were questioning the move to Solana.
But I think that, like, you guys understand this as well as anyone, but just, like, the culture really, really, really matters.
And, like, when we moved to Solana, the support we got was insane.
And, like, I think you see the same thing on Barrett Chain.
I've had three or four different, like, BD calls every day this week with different BarioChain teams that are just like
super excited to work and build and everyone's hungry.
So sorry to kind of like jump in and ramble there,
but chain matters and stuff.
And I think that just relates to you guys really well
because you guys obviously have like a similar view,
you know, and focus in the way you run your business.
Totes. Totes. Totes.
So, um, all right. So, okay. So you,
you have your Solana and okay.
Let me ask you a question because kind of when you did your drop, drop, um,
ETH was still pretty hot and Solana I would say probably just starting to hit maybe
did you I know that you said it's controversial and everything but did you what drew you to Solana
after after the ETH drop exactly so it was actually kind of um pancakes brah i think probably a lot of people
know him uh is still like an honorary member of the team you know he's kind of like i don't know
working less on crypto working more on music so not like a full-time type uh member but you know
has been in the past and and still is like a dear friend of ours. The decision was made one night with him and some other people on the team
in Argentina,
actually.
And really it just came down to pros and cons.
And so when we looked at it,
the pros of Solana were just like willingness to help was 10 X that of on
ETH.
So like,
let's say I need some help.
Can I reach out to, I mean, at some points we reached out to Tully or Raj
and they helped us how they could.
Or can I reach out to Magic Eden or can I reach out to whoever?
On Solana, it was just like way more possible to get things done
in like a really quick way and to find partners who wanted
to build cool stuff um and i think the same could be said for like barachain and monad um
we obviously joined solana um at like a different time in solana much more like in the craziness
and not uh really like at the ground floor like Barra and Monad.
But even then we were able to get just like so much support.
And so, yeah, it just came down to pros and cons, you know? And I think like, you know, I'm not like anti-eth,
but I think they could be doing better in quite a few ways.
And then also I just think it's like,
it's tough because they were first
and obviously not
optimized in in a lot of ways and so it's tough to really retain that like
builder culture um it tends to get kind of zero sum pretty quick uh so that's my take
yeah okay well um I'm I won't say I'm completely anti-Eth, but those gas fees.
Yeah.
That's a big part of it.
Drive you up the...
I mean, when I started on ETH for NFTs,
there were some days where the gas fees were 3x the mint.
Like, it was not... Yeah, no no it's definitely just not user-friendly
and like i don't know you look at solana and you look at uh you know meme coins whether you like
them or not they're onboarding people and people are using solana and phantom wallets are being
downloaded and so like the the one potential con i think is like you know everyone's on eth but i think there's
like at this point months later you can say everyone's on solana at the time it was a little
more of a toss-up um but like looking back i think we made the right call um like i think
solana at least in my eyes is here to stay and i think most people would agree.
So yeah, but it's interesting how chain matters for product.
I mean, over the years I've learned,
I think it matters almost more than anything,
you know, where it's located and what type of community it's a part of.
Yeah. And yeah, for sure.
I mean, all of the people that we considered, like in 2021, ETH people are now on Solana, like, you know, people who are like big, what's it called? What are they called?
Influenzas.
Influenzas. Influenzas. Yes. Influenzas. Thatenzas Yes, Influenzas
That's a good word for them
But yeah, no, all of the big
punks or apes
you know, who
were doing things
they kind of looked down on
Solana and now they're all here
So there's definitely been a turnaround
in that way
But the thing to your point about community and about it being easier to access people,
kind of a very big watershed moment for me was when we went to Breakpoint in Holland
and the institutions were all there saying, you know, we're going, you know, we're choosing Solana
because we don't need to look outside of Solana for, you know, our infrastructure. We don't need
to look outside Solana for our developers, for, you know, everybody is already there in the
community. It's like ready to go. So I totally understand the reason the move was made and why you were drawn to it, for sure.
Now, the other question I have for you is your next collection, do we call it collection?
Yeah.
Okay, your next collection is on Barachain.
No, so the Barachain one's live. No, that'll be next.
Okay.
So, yeah.
Next one after the Solana redrop, sorry, is what I really meant.
So, what kind of took you to Barachain?
I'm fairly ignorant on Barachain, except for the fact that I know that Honey is a bearer
Barabadi. But what I would say is like, really, just what I was talking about is community is
baddie.
But.
just like, and you know, there's certainly some bias, because maybe it's just like the people I
know in the circles I'm in. And maybe it's, you know, just really strong in the CT world, right?
Maybe Polygon has like a super strong community somewhere I'm not familiar with.
I don't know. But for us, it was just like, you know, one, you know, we just know a lot of people
too. They're really welcoming. You know, when we started to toss around the idea, people are
immediately like, how can I help? You know, we love this. We want this, you know, all the way up to Smokey
and people like that. And, you know, it's kind of, I guess, like a humble brag, but it's like on
Solana, Barachain, Monad, all three of them, we've gotten support from like, you know,
the highest level people, you know, Raj, Tully for Solana, Keone for Monad, Smokey and Papa for
Barachain.
That stuff just really matters to us.
It helps us get in the mix and get the right partners.
It makes us more confident that we can build cool stuff with cool people.
Because in the end, we have quite a few things that we're
developing on our own and stuff,
but a lot of what we want to do involves collaboration
and we really embody a stronger together mindset.
So the same thing that brought us to Barachain
is the same thing that brought us to Monad and Solana.
And they're all different technologically
and kind of attract different users,
but they all have that one thing in common.
That's what I'd say.
Cool. Awesome. attract different users but they all have that one thing in common that's what i'd say cool awesome all right so um i guess what has made your experience on barra different you've kind of told us why they're similar but what has made your experience experience on barra different
from like your first two um your your your drop on eth and your re-drop on solana so the drop on ETH and your re-drop on Solana.
So the drop on ETH was similar to when you're frying something
and everything catches on fire and your house burns down.
So that one wasn't fun.
That was just like, oh, crap.
The Solana one, I think it went pretty well.
That one had been a long time coming.
But like I said, we joined a different life cycle in solano so it was just kind of different we got a lot of support and stuff like that but um you know it's it's just harder to form really
deep partnerships uh when people are in such a busy part of the market and that's kind of what that was was a real mania um and so that's
kind of like a big difference i would say between barat chain um you know and monad and solana
for barat chain we've been able to like just really get in with these teams early a lot of
them you know we've already been talking for months and like i don't know it's just really nice to be able to come in at this phase
uh and be a part of it you know from ground zero so i've really enjoyed that and i think it's like
really helped us just kind of build this out um with more meaningful partnerships and things like
that yeah nice um yeah it's really nice to grow with a chain, like, you know, come up with a chain. That's pretty dope. And I would assume, without getting into it, that that would be by the same token for Monad, because they've just gone live on Testnet, right? So you're doing all of that due diligence and kind of building slowly with them that you don't get a chance to when you come onto a chain live that's already full in swing and, as you said, in mania.
Yep.
No, exactly.
Yeah, I mean, like, most of the art is already complete there.
You know, we've already got Frizz on our team who's leading BD there.
So he's already, you know, keeping these connections live and, you know, talking about potential things we can do with them.
So, yeah, it's just like, you know, not only do you get better at this, because the reality is like NFTs are new.
Nobody knows the perfect way to run an NFT company.
I think like Luca kills it with pudgy penguins.
That is like a good blueprint that you could follow.
But, you know, everyone is different and like we're not exactly like them.
So a lot of it is just like learning. And so for us, you know, the performance, you know, from the first men on ETH where, you know, everything kind of went wrong and it was a bit of a disaster to Solana where we really delivered like a quality product pretty well. Had a few hiccups, you know, like on the redrop and stuff like that, but not much.
So a lot of it is just like learning.
and stuff like that, but not much to Barrow, which I think, you know, it's had some issues
and stuff, but as far as like the team delivering, they did very well. And so like, it's really cool
to see us one, you know, just like grow as a company and get a lot better at this. And then
to get ourself into these cool situations where we can build cool stuff with like really, really,
really smart people and then have it all looped together. Um, and like,
we've got this one products coming, which really helps loop, you know, the Monad, the Barrett chain and the Solana collections all together. So really excited for that too. That's dope. Okay.
So let's talk a little bit. You mentioned it, you touched on it, but let's go back to Solana first.
You have a partnership with All Domains right now.
All Domains is available on Solana and Monad.
So I assume your .wasi can be for either or can it only be for Solana?
No, I'm pretty sure it should be able to be for Monad.
I know we've talked about it.
I mean, I don't know.
Are you guys on Testnet?
I don't even know.
But regardless, I think once Monad's live,
it should be available there.
Yeah.
Well, we have a .monad.net
and I think they're on Testnet.
I mean...
I guess, yeah.
Yeah, I don't know. It's probably just people like pre-ordering them, I guess.net. And I think they're on testnet. I mean. I guess. Yeah. Yeah.
I don't know.
Yeah.
Probably just people like pre-ordering them,
I guess.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
that's a question for honey,
actually,
but,
we'll maybe get into it a little later on.
Anyway.
So you,
it should be a cross chain domain,
which I don't know that we have any of those.
Honey,
do we have any cross-chain domains?
Okay, maybe she's not.
I want to say that your, what's kind of like your flagship domain?
Dot ID, right?
Dot ID is the one that is a web domain and a domain.
Oh, that might be what I'm thinking of instead of it being cross-chain okay
yeah yeah that could be cross-chain i'm not actually sure but we'll find this out
this is a good question um to have answered anyways okay so then so then with with barry
you were on the ground um in okay so you had sorry lost my lost myself altogether because I have like a million questions I want to ask.
So Solana, do you have any prominent partnerships in place with Solana and with your Solana collection?
Let me think.
I mean, you know, we've got you guys got you guys geo feel free to bump in here my head has
been so barra chain we've worked with like a bunch of different people um
as far as like ongoing stuff i'm not sure we have anything like super prominent um yeah probably not a bunch of like uh ongoing stuff but like we've done
we've done we've tried to like do some different fun salon of things that we've experimented with
like we did a wasi with hat um nft that was just like a free mint which is that was just us trying to
have some fun doing something that we could never do on eth just because of the gas fees um
which is like another fun way to or reason that we switched to solana we did a charity um nft mint
for he's called the man that rescues dogs which is like a dog rescue in thailand
and we made a cool video oh i know him yeah and a small thing is always like a big supporter of
animals and um you know he's he's like a big softy for helping with that stuff when he can. So that was another cool Solana thing that we did.
And, you know, like we can,
so we kind of partnered with different charities and like Magic Eden helped us
out with that too. But that's,
I feel like that type of stuff is really fun that we,
we can just kind of do that on our own because of,
because it's not on ETH guess but uh yeah so we've definitely
done some fun solana things like that over the past couple years yeah and one thing that like we
want to do more of uh that's like panning out more on the barrier chains of the world
than it did of the solana is like help teams with 3d and kind of get in and really like help them develop
their mascots and stuff um so like you know had a lot of fun doing that with teams on solana
um and you know made some cool stuff and posted it and and kind of just had fun with it but
weren't able to really lock in um as many as we'd like i think because of kind of the life cycle
in as many as we'd like I think because of kind of the life cycle but hopefully
and you know we're in talks with quite a few we can help some teams on Vera make
some really cool content and and graphics and things like that we actually
made a an all domains wasi just kind of like a little custom collab nice I wonder
we should post that.
I'll try to find it.
I bet you Rito can find it.
He's in here.
Yeah, yeah.
Rito posts that under,
under like the tweet here,
whatever, for the spaces maybe.
Is he in our speaker panel?
If he isn't,
he won't be able to pin to the top.
You can either do it just send this to me
in the comments yeah um okay cool i um i love that we're punching down on eath um let's keep it going
um oh man i i feel like we should say too just to be clear we actually have a small eath collection i think it's i think it's fun to
punch down on eath but we we all know it still is like oh the plushes it's still kind of the big
kahuna in the room you know that's not to say i'm not going to predict its future or not but
um you know it all it's always like been the big one and i personally i think it's still
you know we're on these different chains but these are other l1s and eath is still like you
know the biggest l1 out there it doesn't mean it's necessarily uh accessible to retail all the time
but um but yeah we do have the number went up the number going technologies is just all messed up on e and
that's really my main issue yeah it's i mean it had a lot of uh you know people move i guess
is is the way to say that um yeah the number go up is is nice on either was nice on e listen i um
went through a phase where i was doing sleep stories. I had a partnership where I would read sleep stories on spaces.
And I read the Bitcoin white paper and I read the ETH white paper.
The Bitcoin white paper is fascinating.
The ETH white paper, even at the time, and I wasn't as knowledgeable as I am now.
And, you know know obviously hindsight being 2020
ETH always felt the ETH white paper always felt like there was something missing it was also a
very boring white paper um so it was a perfect sleep story bitcoin actually it was I was actually
sleeping on your spaces when you were reading the the Ethereum white paper and the Bitcoin ones as
you said it was captivating it was fascinating and on the ethereum ones it was perfect it was nighttime
for me yeah i'm falling asleep to that and i love white papers usually exactly so anyways that's an
aside but yeah there was always something about eth that put me to sleep if if i'm honest um
all right somebody else is going 100 you're right right, Doug. All right. So I want to
talk to you a little bit more about Barachain, because as I told you, I'm fairly ignorant to
Barachain. Like, why Barachain? And you say, like, yeah, just get into it. Tell us a little bit.
For those of us who don't know.
Also, guys, if anybody has any questions of their own,
you can request up now.
I'll start answering those in about five minutes
because we're in the kind of 15-minute zone.
Yeah, so Barachain, like,
I think Barachain has a few main draws.
One, I think that, like, one thing that attracted us is they have a really strong NFT communities.
And that's just, like, good.
They really embrace that.
They also have, like, a lot of really cool games being developed, which for us is a great thing.
You know, obviously we're, like like a fully rigged 3D collection.
So we're always looking for like cool games
and stuff to be a part of.
And then the other thing I would say about Barachain
that I think is cool and I think kind of fits our community
that like, you know, our community is pretty OG.
And I think like was around for defy
summer and all that i think bear chain has a bit of a vibe to kind of like a throwback to defy summer
uh and so you know the way i view wasi on bara is like okay so it's wasi ip it's a wasi nft you
know it's a wasi thing but then it's also an nft on barit chain so we still want to like get people you know
benefits for using different protocols things like that um and so that's what like we're working on
doing uh is letting people play with these different protocols and stuff and you know maybe
get a points boost or whatever it is um but kind of roll that out to our community. And so, you know, it's beneficial for one,
the protocol, and then two, our community who gets, you know, some sort of benefit or whatever.
So I would just say Barachain is kind of teeming with life on that side. And so for us,
there's a lot of potential. Yeah, nice. We had a conversation. I can't remember who it was with now.
We have a lot of conversations here. But we had a conversation with somebody recently about, like, who was that?
They have their own, they have a domain.
But, like, it was one of the most, it was one of the best use cases for our domains that we've discussed where you can use that domain name in the game, outside the game to collect points.
Oh, it was Sonic. We talked to Sonic, yeah.
And their .sonic is going to be your all-encompassing thing.
So it would be nice if the .wasi, when it does get into games you can use that and like you can use that as
your like payment processor and everything um yeah no and we have um like i said another product
that kind of links all our stuff together um and and you know we're constantly working on ways to
kind of close the gap between these chains and so that's why we love dot wasi is because it kind of close the gap between these chains. And so that's why we love Dot Wasi is because it kind of helps us do that.
And we're excited to grow with you guys,
you know, like into different chains and areas.
Absolutely, absolutely.
All right.
And then I guess let's just get into Monad
and why Monad.
Also, actually, stop now before we do that.
Do you have any um notable partnerships
on barachain yeah so as far as ones that are public i don't know um i'm trying to think of
what we could make public here i mean we're pretty much at the point where we're speaking with like
everyone um let me think here some of the calls we had today we could probably talk or yesterday um
yeah i mean so a lot of defy protocols that we're talking to um you know for kind of like
similar reasons like i had just discussed um we are working on um getting into a few games.
I don't necessarily want to mention them as if they're guaranteed
because a lot of them we're still working on.
But Bakeland yesterday is a pretty cool one.
Again, nothing's been signed on the dotted line,
but we're planning on getting in there and designing something for them.
Gio, does anyone else like pop into your mind?
I feel like we are so on the cusp of announcing with so many Barrett partnerships on different levels,
but I don't feel like there's a lot we can say right now.
But, you know, like Rom and Finance is another one that like we'll work with and stuff
and i only feel confident because we like are now moving forward on things um but we've got uh like
a bd software and we've got probably like 70 or 80 different protocols in there and we've ranked
them on priority so we're maybe 12 down uh and just kind of moving down the list.
So yeah, it's actually pretty exciting.
We've got multiple people who are
super central in the community who've helped
us kind of organize this and
prioritize who to reach out to
first.
Truth be told, we're kind of prioritizing
ones that don't have tokens yet
in hopes maybe to get some for our community.
Yeah. Yeah.
Nice.
Okay, cool.
I usually am a lot more pushy about Secret Alpha, but I respect, you know, the cusp-like quality of your relationships right now.
So we're going to move on.
And then we're going to say, like, what you to um monad as your next adventure after bera
so i think monad and to be honest what's interesting is we actually decided to go to
monad before we decided to go to bera so monad's been in the works or not even i guess in the works
um but you know we've been planning it for a long time um the
reason there is is simply community and then just like a lot of our community um are huge fans of
monad and like what they're building uh and so i'm lucky enough to be pretty good friends with tunes
who i don't know his official title over there but um you know works over there full-time and you know i think he's got to be some
sort of bd or similar role uh and so you know he's been super instrumental but the truth is is like
all the monad team is super helpful um we went through their kind of like nft accelerator program
uh which was really cool um and like the support that they've provided
the people building there is pretty insane.
So it was kind of just a natural thing to like go there.
You know, the Barra collection is all Barras.
So we have eight different bases, you know,
in our main collection.
The Monad collection will be, you know, all Beras. So we have eight different bases, you know, in our main collection. The Monad collection will be, you know, all the same character. I guess I won't say which.
You could probably figure it out pretty easily by looking at just like memes and stuff. But
we're excited. Yeah, they again, they just have like a super strong community,
a lot of great art and artists.
I would say they have more of an art-type culture, where Barachain has a lot of NFTs.
But we're able to really lean into both, because there's a lot of people who create independent wasi art and stuff.
And we love that.
So the other thing also is, I've been meaning to mention this.
We invested in Monad a while back.
So we wrote that check and put it in the name of the treasury.
So all of those tokens will like flow back to us.
Or I'm sorry, the community.
You know, some will be spent on salaries.
Who knows what else?
I know what else, but I can't say. So that's also just like another reason is like we were able to really like, you know, get in at the ground level financially as well as building. So it's just a that way nice super um okay we got that um so i have a bunch more questions but i'm just gonna
check in nobody's requested up honey do you have any questions because we we're coming down to the
end of the hour um no to be honest it was really nice to listen in and uh i got a lot of my questions answered
so thank you for that i was curious about monad and beratin especially i have my
so i can't wait to get the one with monad yeah fantastic okay so i guess um
some wrap-up questions number one how can people who haven't been with you since eath or
since the solana redrop get involved what's the best way for them to get involved with the wasi
community um so yeah i mean like i would say like the most kind of time lasting way you could do it
would be to buy a wasi on solana because that's like our og collection
and you know i've said it before i'll say it again you know anything we do in the future
they'll be a part of so they received the bear chain or drop um you know they'll get the monad
one um so you know if you have the money i think they're i don't know how much they are
if you have the money i think that's like a. And like, it'll keep you a center part of everything. But also like the WASI on Barra is great,
especially if you love Barra chain. But the reality is, is like, we're making sure that,
you know, everybody benefits from everything we do. And so, you know, even WASI holders on Solana
should benefit from like all the stuff we do on Barra so i'd say either one it's kind of
nice we have something like multiple price points for people um we also have pretty cool merch if
you're into that and then we'll be dropping our new plushie on amazon here very soon i would say
probably within the next like three weeks um and then we kind of glazed over it earlier. We do have plushies on ETH.
Those are super limited though.
And to be honest, like super illiquid.
And so I don't even know if there's any listed,
but those are kind of like our famous green
inverse bra plushies.
So we've got a lot out there and there's more coming.
I would say if you want to just like create and have fun,
use our Canvas tool,
which is like a custom piece of software that we created where you can take our models and just like play with them, put them in different poses and make memes and different stuff like that.
That's a really fun tool.
I feel like should get more love.
We're always updating that.
And then I guess last thing I'll like mention, we're about to drop our new website update,
which will be really cool.
It'll allow people to like get different files and stuff,
you know, like the 3D files for their WASIs.
And it'll be just like a really cool central hub.
And you guys are on there.
There's little things they can click for their domains.
So super hyped to get that out.
Nice, nice. All right. So super hyped to get that out. Nice, nice.
All right, so I checked on Magic Eden.
The floor on Wasi's right now is 6.4.
So, which...
That's FUD.
It should be like...
No, wait, I probably shouldn't say that.
But yeah, FUD.
I mean, that's still phenomenal.
There are things that I paid 6.4 for that are now like .0001.
So, you know, that you have a 6.4 floor is a testament to something you're doing right, for sure, in terms of price, staying at a normal price utility.
All right. So a question we like to get into, and Gio, you will be answering this as well.
I know you've been putting most of the work on Monkey, but you will be answering this as well.
Do you have any domains, and if so, which .domains do you have?
I'm assuming you have .wasi, so we'll take that off of the table for you.
Do you have any other all domains domains?
So here's the thing I have a lot because I
I registered all of them for the team and then a lot of the team never
Like asked me to send them out
I've got a lot. I definitely have monkey cut wasi
Oh shoot, you know what? I'm on the wrong computer. I don't monkey.wasi. Oh, shoot.
You know what?
I'm on the wrong computer.
I don't have my wallet here, so I can't check.
But I definitely have monkey.wasi.
I definitely have, like, small.wasi.
Shoot.
I have, like, 20.
I can't think of them.
Gio, what's yours?
It might just be giovanni.wasi.
Yeah, I'm giovannipickle pickle.wasi i just try to use the full
name you know my full legal name or else uh or else i probably wouldn't be able to keep track of
it um yeah like that um yeah that's all that's it that's all i got what more do i need you know
i mean there are a lot out there i have vpiphany
dot solana vpiphany i refuse to get dot poor i've told i've told vlad from the very beginning that
i know it's your humble beginnings but and solana's humble beginnings but the way my
manifestation works i will never get a dot poor but i got the dot solana i got the dot monkey i think uh dot bonk dot let's bonk
no dot wasi oh no i'm gonna have to i'm gonna have to go out and and and seek one out um yeah
actually i think um so we like to do and like one one of the things, I'm sorry, one last ramble that we like to do is just kind of like blast out fun little NFTs to people, our holders, you know, because we can do that on these low cost chains.
And so when we do that, we usually do it to like .wasi holders as well.
And so I think we're going to do one soon.
So if you register it, you'll probably get that.
And, you know, it's just for fun.
Let's go.
Let's go.
I was listening earlier.
You said you started with .pour.
I didn't realize that was your first one.
And I just about lost my shit.
I think that's hilarious.
Oh, yeah.
They started with .pour in, like, the $8 sold days.
Yep.
For the call.
I always say started with .pour.
Now we're here
but yeah no i told vlad on the outset like i get it but no i won't be doing it um because i've been
dot poor enough thank you um so um so yeah no if i told him if he does dot rich, dot wealthy, dot like, I don't know, whatever else you can you can get with, you know, any other things synonymous with like great wealth.
I'm in. But like, no, we're not.
Dot Watsi is synonymous with great wealth.
OK, well, I'll be getting my dot Watsi after the after the space.
That's what I'm doing, guys um i hope you join us
um what else uh yeah and now like i said i haven't gotten i have what's the newest one i haven't
gotten my dot sonic yet is on is on sonic or
yep yep yep recently announced um and then um
I am still gunning and honey loves when I talk about this but I'm still gunning for my dot super team. I just have to,
uh, join a super team. And, uh, but that's completely free when you, when you get,
when you're in super team, you can get the dot super team for completely free. Um, all right,
guys, thank you guys so much for being with us. Um, just want to remind people,
with us. Just want to remind people because I didn't do it at the top. This is an all domain
space. You can get any domain to suit your women fancy. They're all subscription based. So
the beauty about that is that, you know, if there's something that you really, really wanted,
and somebody else has it, there is a chance to scoop it up if they just abandon that wallet.
Whereas with the old SNES version, like once that wallet dies, that domain dies with it.
And a reminder to people, if you do want an SNES, which there's beauty in it as well, All Domains is very much into just pushing domain five forward. So you can get your
sns.soul from all domains website as well. There are a lot of domains that you can get like a free
taster trial of like six months. Remember that every domain that you sign up for, You get points. The points are rewards that will come in TGE. And then there's
some OG Solana NFT holders that will be rewarded. So if you're a Saga DAO holder from the original
Saga or the Seeker, if you're a Monkey DAO holder, all of those get you more points in the all domains
experience. And then there's also questing, which gives you other rewards, I believe cash rewards,
and I believe they're still going on. Also, there was a piece of secret alpha dropped on Monday
that people were having a hard time with the mon faucet. If you hop into the all domains discord, somebody in the community was gifting
mon, you know, as long as you kept active. So that's another way to get your, your mon,
your testnet mon, if you want it. And then guys, monkey geo, it's been such a pleasure.
Can you just let people know how, what the best way to tap in with you?
Like, is it the Discord?
Is it dropping into the DMs?
If they want to, you know, before they maybe buy their NFT or get involved on that level,
how can they get in touch with you guys?
Yeah, I would say to stay up to date, follow us on Twitter,
at Wassey, at Inverse Bras, small thing, at Wassey on Barra for that collection. with you guys yeah i would say to stay up to date follow us on twitter at wasi um
at inverse bra small ting at wasi on bear for that collection um if you ever have any questions you
just want to chill come into the discord um yeah and then other than that you know my dms are like
insane i need to like leave the thousand group chats i'm in uh you can try to dm me but if you
ever really have anything i think
discord is best and um if you ever need anyone it'll always get elevated to the right person
nice nice awesome um yeah dms are going to be a thing of the past according to the to the news so
you you won't need them what elon's taking them away yeah, Elon's taking them away? Yeah, Elon's taking them away. Honestly, though.
That's what I read.
That's what I heard.
I think he's moving to kind of Facebook Messenger model, whereby you have to download another app and use that.
I don't know that I'll be moving with those times, to be honest with you.
But, yeah, that's what I heard.
That's what I read.
We've actually got to run.
We've got a meeting to go to,
but appreciate you guys for having us so much.
And yeah,
let's do it again at some point in the future.
All right.
Thanks so much.
Thank you so much for joining us.
Cheers, guys.
Bye.
We're back Monday, guys.
Bye.
