yeah no good stuff i'm getting getting the getting the vibes ready. We're getting good.
Yeah, no, we're doing good.
I took my first sip of coffee as you started playing the music.
So I'm getting jazzed up, feeling good.
I was making my coffee.
I'm sure you guys heard the thumping and the coffee going.
I heard you make kind of like a self-satisfied noise. Like as you were like, as you were going, you were kind of like, oh yeah.
Or something like that.
So I kind of knew you were vibing.
So it's good.
Yeah.
Cozy.
We head off to the foundry next week.
I know.
We're going to be in person in like, what?
We're going to be hanging in like, what?
Four days? Five days? That's going to be in person in like, what? We're going to be hanging in like, what? Four days? Five days?
That's going to be kind of sweet.
It'll be super fun.
Anybody, like, Chaos, are you coming into town?
Anybody else coming into town?
That's okay.
No, Chaos used all his Mon AirDrop to go to Thailand.
No, well, I don't have a visa to go to the United States yet.
They don't accept me like that.
That's true.
I wouldn't accept you either.
I am in the process.
Yeah, I will need that recommendation letter from KB and Cozy, please.
Like, you know, write an official statement.
I have a bone to pick with Cozy.
So we have to, like, you know, they're sending us, obviously.
And so, like, you know, Cozy's like, yeah, like, I got my stuff.
And so I have to match it.
Cozy gets a two-star hotel in New York.
I'm about to crash out.
I'm going to have to pay the difference for a four-star, not going to lie.
Oh, the...
I mean, the hotel looked fine, though.
It didn't look... I don't think it looked...
Does it look like janked?
It looked, like, pretty fine.
You ever heard an AI cleaning up photos?
Oh, I don't know.
I don't know.
It looked okay to... It looked okay to me.
I think it's going to be good.
Okay, KB, you riff for a minute here.
I'll be right back.
I'm also just a girl.
He's going to stay in his hotel.
Yeah, I'm just a girl in New York City that can't stay in a two-star hotel.
I'm sorry.
Yeah, I think they should book you a five-star.
I mean, at least a four.
A good four, not a bad four.
Okay, what's the scale?
So, is four the highest?
Five is the highest.
Five is the highest?
I know.
Dude.
I mean, I'm not looking for a five, but like a two?
KB, it had free breakfast.
Oh, my God.
You know what they did?
It had good...
You know what they did?
It would be a rat from the street.
Dude, it's in Manhattan.
It looks clean and safe.
That's all I was after, man.
I just wanted free breakfast, clean and safe.'s all I that's all I was after man I just wanted free
breakfast clean and safe nothing more nothing less similar like price range
and I found one and it said four star and I'm like okay and so then but then
you can't trust these like reviews I went on tick-tock and started looking
more into it and everyone's like how does this hotel have a four star and they're crashing out i'm like great so i still haven't booked i still
haven't booked my hotel yet um so i'm gonna work on that but i really just might pay the difference
and just match your hotel and be like all right well, well, I'm going to pay a little more. Oh, well, I'm sorry.
I mean, legitimately, like, I think that part, I mean, I have friends that live.
Well, so I thought I was going to be able to get really cheap rooms.
It's a long story, but they ended up all being booked out.
And then so I was like, oh, shoot, I actually got to get a hotel.
This stinks.
And so but then but I do have friends that live in the Bronx, but I didn't really want to be just like, Hey, can I, Hey, I'm coming into town for work.
Can I sleep on your couch? So I felt like that would kind of be lame. So, but, but if my hotel
sucked, I would be like, Hey, my hotel is two stars. My coworker was actually right about that.
So can I come sleep on your couch? They would let me.
So I have a little bit of like downs. I'm like, I have a stop loss, I guess is really what it is.
So I have a friend in Brooklyn, but also like, I'm not trying to take the train at all.
Yeah. Yeah. Real. Well, I mean, I think I'm going to be taking, I mean, this is going to be an adventure. I mean, I lived in New York City for, you know, a little over a year during COVID.
So I like to think that I'm something of a veteran.
And that since it was during COVID, I feel like COVID was heightened craziness in New York City.
But also things are just kind of progressively, like degeneratively getting worse in New York City.
So like, I like to think that things are maybe just kind of the same right now as they were when I was there. But I think I don't remember if I came in through JFK,
if I'm coming into JFK or Newark. But regardless, I either need to Uber, which would be which I
probably could just Uber. But I'm like, Oh, man, do I ride the train for like 45 minutes to an hour? Like make a few changes,
like try to find like a quiet car, like pretend like I know how to do jujitsu, like that kind of
deal. I don't know what we'll do, but I mean, it might be fun for old time's sake. I mean,
I did some crazy, I remember taking my now wife when she was visiting me in New York, back to the airport, dropped her off at late, man.
Like, oh man, like 9 or 10 p.m.
Like, it was like a late flight that she got out.
And I rode the subway back for, you know, probably an hour at like 11 p.m. and midnight.
And I was just like, prepared to die.
I was just like, I mean, this could vary.
Well, I would be, I'm ready to go like if that was to be the case if it was my time I was going to be ready so yeah no it's just uh it'll be fun though I mean there's nothing there's nothing
like New York City it is like a special place I do just think the funny thing well okay Chaos you
jump in yeah no I just want to let you know that I'm in booking right now,
searching for two-star hotels in New York City,
and I am 95% sure every picture is a scam.
So you better contact that friend and let him know that you will be there
and you might need their assistance.
Yeah, for real.
Dude, I mean, it's like an AI AI generated like hotel that I end up showing at.
It's like not even it's like not even real.
It's like a hobble.
I did.
I almost booked one of those places, KB, where like you had to share bathrooms.
And then I was like, oh, no, I'm not going to do that.
So then I was like, OK, you can never trust a man to book anything like you just.
Oh, yeah.
You got to like go either
like oh yeah it's fine there's like a roach on the wall or like a bed bug here and there like bro
okay my wife did that to us a few years ago we were going to visit her family up near like
washington dc and she books us last minute a hotel and we're like okay well this i mean yeah this is fine look it's
like one night and we've got like maybe a one-year-old like he was kind of like he was kind
of like toddling around just barely but he was like still pretty little so we're like look this
will be fine we show up it's a it's like the most janked out it's a okay first off it's a motel it's a motel it's not a hotel it's a motel we
show up and not only is it a motel it's a smoker's motel they have like they have like the cigarette
like little like buttholders in the rooms and like it smells so bad and like we got i think we even
got like a non-smoking room,
but it used to be a smoking room.
So it still had the smell.
So it's like you couldn't smoke in there,
but it still smelled like a smoker's room.
And I actually will say I was like quite,
this was probably kind of a fight between my wife and I.
We were unhappy at each other over this.
And it ended up totally working out.
And we did sleep there.
But because it was so cheap, there was like a race.
There was like a NASCAR race going on.
So there were like no hotels available.
It's like too funny.
Although now I could go back in time.
I think I was much poorer then.
But it was like we had to spend like $250 to get like a hotel or something like that.
I would for sure just, I would definitely just do that now, but that's, that's in retrospect.
But yeah, New York, I'll be excited to be back in New York city. Is this, is like a fun fact
from when I was there. Like I said, I was there for a year. I was in the Bronx, which was like
a kind of rough part of town. Um, while I was there doing like very interesting work, but getting to work
in a school and doing all this cool stuff. And, but I remember whenever I would go home for like
winter break or whatever, I live in, you know, a rural part of a state nearby to New York City.
That's where I grew up. And I would just go to my, I would go to my grandparents' farm
and I would just, I would just feel
different.
I would just be able to breathe.
And I was like, oh, like New York city.
Like I enjoyed it.
There were so many cool things, all that stuff, but it just gives you like a low level, like
latent anxiety, like in the city, like, and different cities have different feels, but
New York city is just like imposing and like scary.
Like you can't really see the sky.
I mean, you can see the sky,
but like it just closes in around you.
There's some scary people.
There's some super nice people too,
but like you just, you get outside of the city
and you just feel different.
Louis C.K. describes New York City
as the largest piece of human litter on planet earth,
which I kind of tend to
agree with. So it's always, you always got to get a little philosophical when you go to
New York City, but it'll be, it'll be fun, KB. Maybe we'll be able to, we'll go to all the Monad
stuff. I'm sure we'll go out some nights. Maybe we'll be able to go hit up like a card store or
something, do some content. That would be fun. And yeah, uh yeah no i'm excited it'll be super fun
yeah they got that one card store that um got robbed actually what for real yeah you didn't
hear about that no i'm not super online right now yeah so there's a few i don't know probably a
month ago it's called like the pokestop and then the fucked up part was that like it got robbed and it went viral.
And then after they got robbed, Nintendo like sent them a cease and desist.
It's like, um, you can't name your shop the Pokestop.
So then they had to rename it the Trainer Spot.
I mean, like really bad turn of events for these guys.
I was like, damn, that's fucked up, Nintendo.
This is spooky because you can't put pokey in, like, the ball.
It was so funny.
But, yeah, these guys, like, opened a spot in New York,
and, like, they had, like, a bunch of sealed products,
like, a bunch of sealed, like, first-based fossils
and, like, a ton of slabs.
And some, like, somebody did, like, a community event, like, some some like somebody did like a community event like some like pokey
nerd you know they're like dress up your binder or like or like dress up your card like your top
loader some like top loader like decorating um like event for like the community and so a bunch
fucking pokemon nerds were like they're like dressed like literally like
imagine the people like decorating their top loaders okay just imagine imagine the group of
adults like you know like millennials decorating their top loaders and these like guys come in
and like you know like ridiculous like uh mask over their heads and at like gunpoint like
rob the pokemon store and everyone is just like sitting there so awkwardly i have to show you the
video wait this is damn video of it oh yeah there's a whole video of it like i was sending
everything and like the robbery is just it's actually comical and like the comments of course because we are so we're just
Serious people was like why is this the most awkward robbery?
Like they're just like hands up like looking
Are they like are they like are they like Pokemon mouth breathers like robbing Pokemon?
They like Pokemon mouth breathers, like robbing Pokemon mouth breathers?
No, no, no.
The robbers are definitely like, you know, some fucking, probably some fucking like Puerto Rican kid.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, they're just like, they're like, they look like they're in their early 20s.
But the people getting robbed are like just mouth breathers Pokemon people.
Oh, dude.
And it is poor.
Like, I felt, I'm like, damn, that's fucked up.
I was sending you the video.
It's so funny.
And then they got to see some assist from Nintendo
after their shit went viral.
Like, you can't name your store that.
Imagine this comes across like the CEO of Nintendo's desk.
It's like, sir, there's a store in New York City.
It's called the...
They call it...
They have the gall.
They have the absolute gall to name it the PokeStop.
He's like, all right, go hire three Puerto Rican teenagers
and give them some clocks.
We're hitting this.
And they just go rob them.
Oh, dude, brutal.
Oh, man.
I mean, I actually have Puerto Rican descent.
I love Puerto Ricans, but yeah, no.
I mean, that tracks.
It's very prominent in, like, New York yeah, no, I mean, that tracks. It's very prominent in like New York.
Like we have Cubans in Florida, like New York has Puerto Ricans, you know, California
has Mexicans.
I'm fucking Spanish.
I can say it, but.
A lot of Dominicans.
I love the Dominicans.
They're some of the most, some of the funniest people I've ever met in my entire life.
Like genuinely hilarious people.
They're so, and they're very kind.
They're just definitely fucking kids. They're just just like oh yeah kids robbing this shit with
and like they were like awkward as fuck with their guns too like the whole thing which is so weird
but like who would be robbing a pokemon store oh yeah yeah the crazy thing about like the the like
badass kids in like new york city is like they will like yeah do crime.
But then they will like go to church on Sunday and be like they're genuinely like very like kind people.
But also like they do crimes which is kind of a problem.
But yeah.
Oh my god.
I used to party in high school like a lot.
And then I would like just come home and like
my mom in the morning be like we're going to church
I'm like fuck and I like just going to church
in the same place I wore the night before
oh yeah
no I mean it's real
gotta pray the sins away
yeah
origami you're up here what's up bro
jikuru
what's happening oh nothing Urugami, you're up here. What's up, bro? Jikuru.
What's happening?
Nothing. I'm just here.
I don't have anything interesting, unfortunately.
I appreciate you, though.
Is anybody else up here? I'm just rugging because that happens.
It's me.
I'm trying to understand why it's so common for you guys to talk about robberies and people going and robber the fucking nerds.
Like, if you want to, like, rob someone, at least go rob someone who, you know, like, will give you a fight.
Don't go to the fucking nerds who want to play Pokemon. They just want to play Pokemon, but yeah, whatever.
This is America, I guess.
This is America. At least we have things worth stealing, unlike in Greece.
Yeah, I mean,
I don't go
out for Pokemon and feel that
someone will come and rob my $1
card. Wait, Chaos, are you from Greece?
Yes.
Wait, you're Greek? I thought you were… I don't know why I thought…
You're Greek.
I thought you were like Hungarian or something.
I don't know.
It's been like one and a half year.
I know.
Well, damn.
Okay.
Well, this…
All right.
Well, man.
I didn't know you were a…
Wow.
You're a Greek.
You're like a…
You're like a god man.
You're like...
I'm like a philosopher.
I invented a lot of things in my life.
Like my ancestors.
But yeah, nice to meet you, Gossi.
I'm chaos.
I'm happy to be here.
Dude, if somebody put a gun to my head
and said where chaos is from, I would have been dude, if somebody put a gun to my head and said where Chaos is from,
I would have been like, Bulgaria.
Oh, it's closed.
At least it's closed.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I guess so.
I imagine, though, if I was going to go, okay, if I was going to go in and rob a Pokemon store,
which I actually think would, I agree, actually, great place to rob.
Don't recommend it.
But yeah, I mean, for sure. Very low, probably like the most high like EV, like expected value
of what you could rob relative to the general testosterone levels that would be present
in the facility that you were going to enter and like but i imagine if i was robbing
it i'd be like give me all give me all your give me all your cards give me all your slabs i'd be
taking i'd be like oh shit this is so cool i mean give me that give me that oh my god you got a
lugia and a psa 10 okay give me that give me that come on come on you're like you're like enamored with the things that you're robbing
oh dude
that's funny
in my head it's like
McLovin from Superbad
this face robbing
other nerds
true
well don't do crimes
that's a good
I feel like that's kind of been a common theme of Crew Live is don't do crimes. That's a good, I mean, that's a good,
I feel like that's kind of been a common theme
of Kuru Live is don't do crime.
We've talked a lot about tax evasion on these over the years.
We've talked a lot about a lot of different things.
So yeah, no, it's good.
Man, yeah.
I feel like KB and I have been leaning into the spaces lately because one, there's just not a lot going on in crypto.
Don't really know what we would talk about right now.
It's like, hey, there's another week where Bitcoin is kind of in like the high 60s, low 70s, and then it kind of crashes and goes up and down.
We're not going to break down the price of oil.
We don't really want to talk about World War III.
The Strait of Hormuz, there can only be so much ink spilled about that.
So, yeah, it is kind of just one of those.
Yeah, I mean, I feel like we, from 10-10 on,
we were kind of in like this slow, progressive bleed.
And then it got so hilariously bad at the beginning of the year
that it was almost kind of novel that we were in a bear market.
It was kind of funny.
And we got to have some fun with it.
It was like, ha ha, Tom Lee is down $7.5 billion.
Like ETH is under $2,000.
Like, ah, we're down so bad.
And now everybody's just kind of like waking up to the reality of like
okay we're in a war and some people are sort of bullish but then bulls like are capitulating every
day but some people are like we're about like this is about to be the most explosively volatile
month since covid so like i genuinely just have no idea where we're gonna go from here but yeah
i don't know i mean anybody trading or doing stuff
on chain much like origami are you are you in the trench as much like you getting after it
uh absolutely not i would not say i would not define my like actions like that right now i'm
using like i've sized way down and i'm like way more selective, like maybe like one or two trades a week.
Maybe I'm much more comfortable just sitting on my hands, preserving capital, not losing money right now than like trying to add to the stack.
Honestly.
What is like the last trade that you took?
Like what are you like trading commodities on hyper liquid or like are you
trading crypto what are you watching oh like meme coins oh me on chain uh meme coins uh oh well like
i i either but yeah no i'm just curious yeah uh i bought shape uh was like the last meme coin i bought and then uh like traditional markets no i didn't really
trade the last thing i i bought silver so i ended up selling silver at like over a hundred dollars
and then um i'm not doing like no oil or anything crazy like that just kind of
sitting on a lot of cash and waiting for i think i think uh
traditional markets are kind of toppy here so um yeah i'm kind of just like the last thing i did
i think i shorted the bitcoin etf at like 95 000 when bitcoin was 95 000
uh and then haven't really made a trade
on Robinhood since then.
Yeah, right on. No, I think that's
smart.
I mean,
look, I'm just a classic
midwit with a lot of this stuff, but I
like, I don't know what shape did.
I didn't follow the
chart or the coin that closely.
But there was that quick, I mean, can you call it a meta at this point?
It's almost a joke to even call these things metas with how fast they're dying.
But I thought that the AI Kino swap would actually have a moment there.
Because I bought the What the Dog Doing coin.
But I bought it way too high.
So I had a feeling that it was just gonna die but I genuinely if it had broken out to like you know 40 or 50 mil I would have been like yeah this makes sense I thought that there was
those were actually like good memes and they could still they could still run because I do
think that shape store and like what the dog doing and like some of these like funnier um yeah like ai generated
memes the interesting thing is that like with dog say like dog with hat or like you know pepe
or like any of this stuff like most of the memes or yeah most of the content for them came from like
very select people right so you kind of like needed an artist in your corner or you needed
like somebody that was like making videos or whatever it was, then they would pump content.
And then people will kind of like collect it and repost it and like use it memetically and all that
stuff. But with this like, generative AI meta, for better or worse, you can actually like put out
like pretty funny, high quality propaganda, because's all like coming from, you know,
just like something that you generate in like chat or clod or whatever it is. And so like the,
the stuff can proliferate really fast. And the engagement that it was getting,
like for instance, like the, what the dog doing stuff on Mirage's Twitter account was like insane.
He was getting crazy amounts of likes and there's definitely like normie containment. And when I thought about the what the dog doing thing was
that there was like, it escaped from Chinese TikTok. So I thought that there could have been
like an East West confluence where like maybe capital would have flowed in. That was at least
like my thesis to throw, you know, like a few hundred bucks in there or whatever. But so far,
that's not played out. I think I'm down like 50%.
But yeah.
Was shape much of a cook?
What did it top out at?
I think like 4 mil
yesterday.
To 4 mil after like...
I mean, it's been out
I think a little bit, like around a week, maybe
a little bit more.
It's like pretty slow. It's a little bit more. And yeah, it's like pretty slow.
It's a grind right now.
Like stuff's not like, I mean, like I would consider that a cook right now.
And it's like top to four mil, you know, so it's rough for sure.
But that was the thing too.
I agree.
Like the virality of the videos, like just did not match up with like the, like the market
cap of the token and
like part of that maybe you could like attribute to a bear market but also it just seemed like it
was mispriced for how well the videos were doing like at the beginning so well i think that's right
and i think you've got a i mean like there may very well if, if we get out of this world without nukes getting dropped and humanity is still intact and all of this stuff, we may very well get into a scenario.
I mean, I think that's still nibbling at these tokens.
There will come a time.
It may be a year or a year and a half down the line or longer.
Who knows?
Or shorter. time, it may be a year or a year and a half down the line or longer, who knows, or shorter,
where liquidity starts to flow, like the dust, the spice must flow. If it starts to flow again,
these coins will probably bounce off way faster. And I think that those are just kind of the shots
that you have to take. I think you would probably feel if like what the dog doing or shape store or whatever it was ran to like 40 or 50 mil without you.
Then if you, you know, get cooked like minus 75 or minus 90 percent on whatever you wanted to clip in there.
And in the long run, that like 10x or 100x or whatever it is that you're trying to gun for is probably going to pay for itself and
more in the long run but you're going to take some L's in that time so yeah I mean I bought
what the dog doing at like four mil I think it went to like five five and a half and then it
it's down to like two 2.5 mil right now but it's kind of consolidating like there's a chance that
it gets another leg up here so we'll have to
see i'll be curious how persistent this is and if for some reason we got some kind of relief in the
markets i don't know i wonder if memes would bounce these definitely seem like some pretty funny
entrants like the shape store stuff like all the philosophical treatises and everything that they
were writing about it and stuff on the timeline, they were actually kind of intriguing. And I do think that those two were actually breakthroughs in the fact that
they were genuinely funny memes.
And I would not have characterized really any of the other stuff to come out of AI
thus far as actually funny memes.
But I think they're also funny because they kind of draw on things
that are still engineered by humans.
But yeah, they were genuinely kind of interesting stuff so yeah kb did you follow any like the shape store or like
what the dog doing or like any of these any of these memes uh no not really the only thing that
i really saw was the distorted face i guess it's the new emoji what is this distorted face. I guess it's the new emoji. What is this?
Distorted face?
Yeah, you haven't seen that?
I'm surprised.
I don't think so.
So, like, a bunch of people are, like,
are tweeting about it.
And so it became a coin.
And I think one of my friends scanned it at, like, 100K.
And I saw it at, like, 4 million last night.
So not too bad um
i'll show you i'll see if i can find one of these like uh memes but yeah i'm surprised you haven't
seen it yet it's one of the new um iphone emojis so iphone was like, we got new emojis because we're going into war, you know, distracting us.
Hello.
Yeah, no, no, I know what you're talking.
I saw the, I saw the, I was just refilling, refilling the coffee.
Okay, here we go.
We'll drip in some coffee.
Yeah, I don't want to like, I was going to pin it, but I want to pin it with, like, you know, not saying anyone's telling, buy it.
But, yeah, it went pretty big because a lot of, like, you know how it goes.
Like, people are using it on their, I guess, as a meme.
I'm trying to find, like, a business using it as, like, a meme.
The only one that I saw was the Sasquatch emoji.
It was like hairy guy or whatever.
Yeah, I just pinned up the new emojis.
And then, yeah, I want to see if I can find like a regular business using it, not for like a meme coin.
Maybe it's on my it's on my
profile not on my page you what you call it at 10k oh no no no i mean yeah yeah i just pinned
crypto bros uh ramon hits one dollar so it's like everyone's like using it like oh you know like
that's like the meme oh that's the face oh, you know, like that's like the meme.
Oh, that's the face?
Oh, that's pretty good.
Yeah.
So then like, you know, the face is normally yellow.
And so people are like using it like that.
And then so that that's a big coin.
Right.
It's yellow, but we have to turn everything to purple.
Yeah, that's the goal.
Everything purple.
Now, here's like where I'm like, I don't know.
I'm like, from Kuru, these memes are not native to Monad,
but they are kind of good, resonant cultural memes.
So I did the What the Han doing off of the What the Dog doing thing.
And I would totally do a tweet off of this,
off of this distorted face because it's really funny.
But I don't want to be shilling meme meme coins indirectly but I'm just trying to meme you know
so that's like where it's because a lot of times like with memes in uh just like in general like
I'll post memes that I think are funny from my main account just because I think they're funny
and I don't even have a bag but I'm kind of like indirectly shilling them by memeing them.
So that's just, especially with like this paid partnership stuff,
which like I think maybe overall is sort of a net good,
but like it also makes you worry.
Like you don't want to get like suspended for like, you know,
a meme post or something like that.
So Twitter is really just making it hard to like, want to like post on this site with
like all of the changes that they're making.
And so many of the things that are just not getting improved.
It's like actually depressing, but.
Bro, the paid thing is like, for me, it's, I don't know at this point, if they improve
it, like what you should put paid, uh, promotion or, you know paid partnership it's because it's like if i put anything
man related do i need to take it like oh this is a paid partnership and people bros would be
thinking like oh bro is earning on all the promotion no bro i'm not earning i have to
take everything as a promotion so that is a bit i think it's new and it's a bit complicated at the
moment and what I do at the moment is I just any post I I want to post I I run
it through park and ask like is it it is supposed to be like a promotion or
not and then grant tells you mmm that's not a bad idea Grock is, this is not a paid promotion. Also, Elon is right about everything.
It's like, Oh, okay. Thanks. Wow. Okay. Wow. I didn't need that. Okay. Yeah.
No, the, I mean that like,
it is confounding because like it sounds like if you work for a company and
you're talking about it or like bullposting and it's not a paid partnership,
but if it's like an investment, yeah,
it's like unclear what it is if it's an investment or if it's like a one-off like the one thing that
makes sense is like somebody's like hey like i'll pay you five hundred dollars to tweet about you
know but coin it's like okay well yeah all right i guess that's definitely a paid partnership then
like you're talking about it you wouldn't have otherwise but then like that girl replied to nikita and she was like nikita
like are my tweets ads and it was all just like info 5 like retweets and like farming posts and
like all this like discord roles and everything but she was not this girl was not getting paid
for any of it like maybe she was getting like indirectly paid down the line by airdrops, which do airdrops even exist anymore? Who knows?
But yeah, no, I mean like the,
so like that also just makes it tricky to know
what the actual parameters are.
And they've not really put those out
in a way that would be helpful to discern that.
So yeah, I don't know, man.
It's kind of one of those things damn we lost kb
just post whatever you like and if they flag your account then you will go and cry on them
like it always happened um they will not give you an answer they will still suspend your account
and then if like a lot of us like have this problem and lose our accounts, then we can finally move to another platform.
And this will be, you know, a plus CV for everyone because fuck this shit.
Nikita also blocked me.
So I don't care about this platform.
No, I mean, dude, it's not.
People talk about that.
And it's like, I feel like it's interesting.
I just don't know if it'll ever, I don't know if it could ever be replicated.
Hey, yeah, yeah, we can hear you.
Yeah, I don't know if, I don't know.
The thing about Twitter that makes it so interesting is not just that it's CT, though, I think, but that it's all of humanity.
So the fact that your posts can break out and normies will see it is kind of half the fun.
But I agree that in an ideal world, to go to an app where the chat function works or like the DM function works and like the search.
I can't believe that search doesn't, you just can't search keywords of your own tweets.
It's unbelievable.
It doesn't make any, it doesn't make any sense.
But when you look, nice.
Yeah, that's a good tweet, KV.
That's a good, that's a funny meme.
The turkey one?
What was that laugh?
He's funny.
Yeah, but that was like a, that was a cackle.
People were laughing.
Oh, man, that's Mert.
Oh, man, that's so funny.
That's Gainsey.
That is Gainsey. Oh, oh man that's so funny that's Gainsey that is Gainsey oh dude that's so funny oh man I'm probably
gonna steal this and make a
make a good meme
here yeah so that's what I've been
seeing with that
distorted face and then I was
and someone's like oh it's a
it's a meme coin
I was like it would be a meme coin.
KB, I just mentioned airdrops.
And I've been thinking about this a little bit.
I feel like the only vectors for airdrops that are left right now that I can foresee are, well, okay, one with Paradex, the perps,
and I mean, like, Lighter, okay, so Lighter right now, I'm feeling somewhat vindicated
because I always said that Lighter's volume was going to be ephemeral. I'm not saying that I'm
the only person that thought that, but, like, Lighter's entire platform volume is getting
spanked by, like, one hyperli hyper liquid market right now. So they're just
getting, they're getting annihilated. Paradex's token was like down like 90%, like within like
an hour of it launching. I mean, it was just down only from the very beginning. So the Perpstex meta
is getting kind of slaughtered right now. I mean, people are still trading perps, but they're doing
it on hyper liquid, which is just kind of consolidating its lead in a lot of ways. And it's opening up to commodities
and some equities and Shoku on hyperunit just keeps on, yeah, just innovating and doing really
interesting stuff. So I guess maybe down the line, there's something like a hyperunit airdrop or
something like that. That would be kind of insane. But yeah, so just thinking about where these different vectors come from, the only ones that
I can see are maybe prediction markets, right? Like does maybe Polymarket do an airdrop? I would
be amazed if Kalshi did an airdrop, although it's one of probably the only ways they could win
people back over to their side, maybe. But airdrops are also divisive, right? It's not like
you do an airdrop and everybody loves you. A lot of times it's the opposite case. But Polymarket
has hinted at doing an airdrop in the past. So that's possible. But there's a lot of big fish
that you're swimming against, if that's going to be the case. It's also one of the biggest apps
that we've ever had, though, right? So maybe the pie is large enough for everyone to go around.
Who knows?
The other one that I think could be, I don't want to say it's being slept on and I'm kind of
conflicted because KB and I have talked about this in the past and we've talked about it on the stream
before, but these like Pokemon gotchas, they could definitely, they seem like the types of apps that
could definitely do some airdrops. And if you...
I'm considering this myself,
and I don't know if I'm going to do it
because I don't really know if I want to support
the kind of like gotcha, gamble-fi, like, aspect of it.
Because to me, what I like about Pokemon
is actually the collecting.
Like, I like going to the Pokestop
and like robbing it with like my Glock 45.
That's kind of like what I actually enjoy about it. Just kidding. Just kidding. But no, but like what I enjoy is like holding the cards in
my hand. Like I don't want to just like, you know, win like some random, you know, Chinese card worth
like $800 that I'm going to sell back for like 90%. That's not what appeals to me really. But I
understand. But the one thing
is that there are some nice cool cards in the gotchas that I would take a few shots at getting.
And even when the packs are plus EV, it still means that in the long run, unless you are going
to actually trade like thousands of dollars, you're probably still going to net net lose money.
So those are my reservations with it. But I do think that there are some opportunities there
and you can win some cool cards and money doing this. So like there's a lot of ones that I think
could airdrop, right? There's like Monster, which is building like a Pokemon treasury. There's Slab
Cash, which has all of these places have like points and XP or whatever it is. So there's like,
those are some niche ones like Slab, Monster, Collector's
Crypt already has a token. Courtyard doesn't, but they're catching with normies and retail,
which is really interesting. So I think Courtyard is totally one to watch. Fidgitals,
um, Gotcha Game. There's a lot. So like, yeah, I don't know. KB, like, do you, are you, I mean, I know you're probably not farming any of these, but are there any a lot so like yeah i don't know kb like do you are you i mean i know you're
probably not farming any of these but are there any that you're like interested in or like following
and what do you think about the airdrop thing i didn't think about um the airdrop thing
to be honest and i'm only i've only been on Gotcha. That's been on Abstract because my friend Sal,
she hooks me up with some packs and to go on stream with her.
So that's like the only thing that I've really done.
I'm kind of saying, I'm not sure.
I do feel like it's a more net negative.
You're only going to do it a couple times, right?
Like, if I'm going to spend the money, I would rather just buy a card that I want.
I'm also, like, not the biggest slab collector.
Like, I don't like slabs.
I think they're ugly.
And I think tens are overpriced.
Oh, interesting.
Yeah. Okay, interesting. Yeah.
Okay, why do you think they're ugly?
They just don't appeal to you?
I think they're kind of cool, but I understand where you're coming from.
Yeah, because what the fuck am I going to do with a bunch of slabs?
You know, I'm going to put them in a drawer.
I'm going to hang them.
I don't know.
I like cards and a binder, I guess.
I like ripping it. I just feel like if I go down and, like, a binder, I guess. And, like, you know, I like ripping it.
Like, I just feel like if I go down the slab route,
I'm just going to spend way too much money.
And, like, that's just, like, not really what I'm really –
I'm already spending a lot of money on Pokemon cards.
Like, the other day I was, like –
I, like, had a couple packs that –
the packs that I bought from Winn-Dixie.
Yeah, KD, you're finding these packs everywhere it's awesome
yeah i can't keep us there's no scalpers down here yeah for real like we're just like
on a daily um but yeah i know like there's some like kids that you know my friends have kids and
shit and i'm like if i'm like around and I have Pokemon cards, I'm like, oh, you guys want to pack
battle with me?
Pack battle with me.
And I'm, like, pack battle.
Do you go and steal the cards from your friends?
No, are you listening to me?
Well, I'm echoing because Cozy needs to mute his mic.
Oh, sorry.
Yeah, you're good.
No, I'm, like, I have, like, the Pokemon packs, Pokemon packs, like from like the cheaper ones from like
Winn-Dixie that aren't Ascended Heroes, right?
I'm not giving kids Ascended Heroes, like they can fuck off.
But like the other ones that, you know, maybe have like the most expensive is like a $100
card.
I'll like, if I see like a kid that I know or, you know, one of my friends' kids and
we're like out and stuff,'m like hey do you want to
like Pokemon battle with me you know and so like I'll give them one of the decks and then we'll
like just like open it together and be like okay cool like who who gets like the better deck
and then like I'll give them top loaders and shit so like I think that's fun and now if you like
if you like open those packs and the kid wins like a very expensive card
Let's say it was like a thousand dollars. Will you tell the parents or like
I wouldn't give them a pack that would have that much like so there's different packs, right?
So like with the ascendant ascended heroes are like super hype right now so like
i'm i'm chasing certain cards in those decks and yeah they're very expensive right now i wouldn't
give somebody a pack to open with me but there's like other packs like stellar like from scarlet
and wrote like violet and scarlet i don't know like stellar crown or Scarlet and Roe like Scarlet Violet and Scarlet I don't know like
Stellar Crown or some shit like those are the ones that I found at Winn-Dixie I researched the pack
and it's like okay what are the what are the chase cards like what are the most expensive cards
and those don't have crazy cards like those don't have like a thousand dollar Pikachu or a $1,500
Gengar like I think the most expensive is like a Bulbasaur and like a Squirtle that like are kind of rising in prices but like eighty
hundred bucks so like those I'm like whatever you know like one of this one of the kids that I
packed battle did end up getting a full art and but they were so stoked about it anyways i'm like i'll go on a tangent the thing is like i feel like i just am not going down the slab route because a where the fuck am i going to
store all these slabs you know b i'm going to be spending so much more money like for buying like a
you know a car that's like 500 on a slab i can buy $100 raw. Like I would rather just have the raw card.
Like I think at the end of the day,
I do think that like this frenzy that we're having
with like the, especially, especially with the modern cards,
the amount that are being printed,
I do genuinely feel like there is gonna be a bit of a pop.
I think vintage is probably the better
route to go if you're going to buy slabs. But I think that, you know, PSA is backed up like
about a year. So like they have like eight months of fucking grading to do. They're getting millions
of cards a fucking month. Like, I do think that we that we're you know hitting this like kind of bubble
with that's why i'm like kind of like like the gotcha stuff is fun i don't think that they're
gonna airdrop anybody because when there's demand for something there is no necessary airdrop needed for people to use this app, right? I think that we are misconstrued
here because it's like, oh, it's crypto. I'm using your product. You need to give me money.
Like, I think that users are very entitled. Like I, for an example, right? Like I use Amazon all the time where's my Amazon airdrop there is not
gonna be one because Amazon is a product that is a high in demand and I use it no
matter what if I'm gonna expect an airdrop or not I just went ahead and I
bought a $500 Nintendo switch to. So I can't.
Whoa, you did it?
I was going to ask you about this.
I bought it.
It's coming.
No, you bought it.
Yes, it's coming today.
I bought, I bought Pocopia.
Okay.
I bought this.
So in total already, I've already spent $600 on this product.
$600.
I am going to be playing.
And guess what?
Guess what, everybody?
I know it's really hard to comprehend, but I am going to put probably about 500 hours
into this game in the next six months.
And guess what?
I'm not getting a fucking penny for it.
I am not getting an airdrop for it.
Can you believe it?
I know. I know. Crooks. a fucking penny for it i am not getting an airdrop for it can you believe it it's i know i know
crooks maybe if you streamed yourself though you literally could probably become like a
like a pokemon influencer yeah i know i need a better streaming setup i'm working on it but
it's gonna be hard um i'm just i'm just in between right now but yeah but this is the thing that like i think that we're we're so
entitled here because of like crypto and like the airdrop whatever like people forget that there's
so many products in the world like we're the only place in the world that expects airdrop just for
using a fucking product nintendo's never gonna give me money. Never. Like, you know, and I'm okay with that.
And maybe that's why there's success in it because of the barrier to entry and, like, the demand of it.
And, like, so I think when it comes to these, like, gotcha things, I think that the most success, like, you know, like, Pump Fun, they don't need to fucking
do an airdrop, they're gonna still keep doing their thing, you know, like, um, I, I just
feel like these gotcha things, there's, because there's a demand for, um, there's a demand
for these, like, Pokemon cards, that it, they don't need an airdrop to, like, farm people
and to come in to use their thing, they're gonna use it it anyways that's my long-winded theory and thesis on it it's a good i mean i think it's a good theory
and thesis and i don't blame you i mean i think that the whole i mean the only thing that i would
nuance is that like the whole spirit of crypto is that the default mode that people don't return
value to their users and don't have like this spirit of like
shared ownership is a problem. So I mean, like it's not, but like what airdrops became was not
that, right? It became basically paying people to use your product and then dump it, which is not
really what that vision was. But there is kind of like a democratized cypherpunk vision that I think
was originally there. It's like, hey, we're going to
have shared governance of this decentralized trading protocol or infrastructure or whatever
it was. And I think even like Monad would say that that was kind of their sensibility
in airdropping some percentage of the supply of Monad, right? It's like it's stakeholders. It's
not like a stimulus check, right? That's kind of the difference there. But I do think that we are
way too entitled when it comes to that stuff. So, I mean, you're right on and it's a point well taken.
But, oh, I'm jealous, KB. You got to switch in Pocopia. I mean, I'm falling for the propaganda.
You already, and you're the prime, like you are one a woman, which I'm just going to be honest,
like Pocopia is kind of i think
like female coded but also i think it would be awesome i'm just i think it kind of is and also
you love and didn't you used to play animal crossing a ton so like that's kind of like the
total crossover you said you were like a sicko for animal crossing right oh yeah i put over 800 hours in Animal Crossing during COVID. Wow. And I honestly I always attest Animal Crossing
into getting me into crypto because before Animal Crossing I didn't do any stocks I didn't do any
crypto none of that and I like put like 800 hours into this game and they have like a little like um it's like a tulip
like stock market and so you like buy and sell these like tulips at like a certain point I'm
probably saying it wrong because I you know me I can't pronounce anything but um so then um I
just like found a system where like I would go to different islands and I would just like buy and sell these fucking things and I became like an Animal Crossing billionaire I had so much money
in Animal Crossing because of this and so then I would you know you you're in a you're in forms and
like groups and you can visit other people's islands and of course it's COVID. So everyone's inside. And so I'm just like going, I would spend the entire game just going to different people's
islands and dropping like money so that people could build things like, you know, you know,
animal crossing money.
Cause I had so much for it.
I didn't know what to do with it.
And that they would be stoked.
I just like visit people and give them money.
And then like, I looked at my own bank account and I was like so broke like I couldn't
even eat I was I had no money I was like so poor and I was like maybe I should start actually trying
to like trade money if I'm good at this like that was that was, like, kind of my thought process. Like, well, maybe I should, like, go into the stock market.
And then, like, we got the stimmies.
So that was kind of, like, I took the stimmies.
It was, like, very typical.
Hey.
And I went into, I downloaded Robinhood.
And I just started researching stocks.
And then that's when I bought a couple, you know, I did pretty good on energy stocks at that point.
And then I bought Doge on Robin Hood.
And, yeah, and I put the game down.
I never picked it up again after I downloaded Robin Hood.
So that's my Animal Crossing story.
Can you explain what Animal Crossing is?
You never played it?
I have no idea so it wasn't so it it first came out like on nintendo gamecube i think it was like 2000 and like maybe like 2000 or something crazy
i wasn't alive exactly so i was like maybe i don't know how old I was, but maybe like 12 or something.
So like, yeah, so like this game, I don't know what the year was, but I was like 12
or something and Animal Crossing came on on Nintendo GameCube.
And that was like a lot of fun.
I loved it.
And so like, you basically are just like, have you played Stard dew valley with nini have you seen that game
i have seen that game okay you've seen the game so it's very similar to that game where you are
just like this character and you like build your little village and you like farm and you like
like you know uh water plants and you like build stuff and then you like
go around and interact with characters. And so like, that was like, so then that was that, you
know, from the beginning. And then when they, um, when they released the new one after like,
I don't know, 20 years probably, which was the newest animal crossing during COVID,
it was like that, but amplified.
And then because of like the social aspect
of like the internet,
because before Animal Crossing on GameCube
wasn't like, there was no internet.
Like, you know, there was like AOL and shit,
but like not like we have today.
So like this had like a different layer
of like connectivity
where you could like go to different people's islands.
You could trade
items there would be different things so it just became this like a little interactive like safe
haven from like you know COVID like there's always that running joke that like Nintendo
like created COVID to sell the Animal Crossing because during a time of like people not being
able to go outside you're able to like virtually
create this world where like you can like dress you know dress your character and you can like
there would literally be protests like I remember like Hong Kong had like a protest um during that
time for like their freedom right over the Chinese communists and so you would go to people's islands
in Hong Kong like islands in Hong Kong,
like players in Hong Kong,
and they would like have like just like protests,
like virtual protests.
Like it was crazy.
It's basically what the metaverse wishes it was,
but just like Nintendo.
And so yeah, that's basically what it's,
that's what Animal Crossing was. And now there's now there's Animal Crossing with Pokemon.
So it's like it's crazy.
I'm excited.
Was there any there was never like a market where like you could translate your being a whale and Animal Crossing currency to like real money?
real money oh there um i don't know about real money but there was definitely like a third-party
site where you could sell some of your like animal crossing items yeah so i think so actually
so like you you so like if i because people had like different items right and different islands
and like whatever but i do think you could sell your your money actually there was third-party sites like that so it did
exist because that's how I would find people yeah because they used to have
that in Wow where like there was black markets for like the longest time but
then they started letting you use like Wow gold to like pay for your monthly
subscription or even like make money like trading on the
auction house and all this stuff so like that would have been i mean it would have been so
so cool if you could have like turned that into like you know ten thousand dollars or something
that's but is pocopia multiplayer at all like can you go visit other people and stuff i haven't
heard of that yet i know that's different you can but i don't think so
i guess they could probably build it on top or something though down the line
well it's i think that like with animal crossing was a bit more like you could be a bit more um
i don't know what i'm looking for um
i don't know because with bocop looking for. I don't know.
Because with Bocopia, you can only be like a, you know,
it's okay, you can be a girl and guy character,
but you can't really pick, like, your skin tone or, like, your hair
because it's, like, a ditto, right?
So everyone is, like, the same player.
And I don't know if you can give it a name.
So, like, I don't know.
I'll have to, I haven't seen anything like that
yeah no right on well you got to report back i mean i guess we'll see i mean literally you
should bring okay so you can play it on a on a so the switch the way the switch works is that
you can play it like it's like a handheld console but you can also connect it to your tv and play
like that that's right i think that's how it is, right? Oh, yeah.
No, I literally pulled the trigger because I knew because we're going to New York.
Yeah.
I was like, I need something to play on the plane and play when I'm back at the hotel by myself.
And then also just play at the foundry because at the foundry, I don't actually work.
I just kind of run around.
That will be so fun.
I want to check it out.
Kozy will be like, hey, KB, want to go for food tonight?
No, I don't have time.
I have to play my game.
Yeah, for real.
She's like, I got to grind, bro.
KB, I did the math.
If you did your 800 hours is like 33 days.
33 days of your life you spent.
Which, to be fair, I have all my old WoW characters.
I have on multiple characters, I have 40 or 50 days played.
But that's from being a teenager.
And just six-hour on like weekends and everything
just for years on end so yeah i mean i can't judge it was like not that long of a period
it was like from march to june
damn that was damn you were locked in okay that's kind of crazy because like by june is when like so you know because i was in
florida by june was when we reopened yeah yeah and so like you know people were saying we were
like crazy busy because like everyone was coming down to florida and we were all wearing masks and
then i was like working again and being outside and probably when I downloaded Robin Hood
well it seems cool too because it's got like some Minecraft elements as well that seem cool
I I will say to myself like I feel like Pocopia I'm falling for like the propaganda I think it's
the kind of thing that I would buy it and then I would like play it like a few times and then I
would just if I had if I was single and I had all the time in the world I probably could get into it
maybe but I'm more of like a competitive like strategy like I like the Pokemon games because
I like like building my team trying to beat the gym leaders and stuff I don't know if I would love
the just like how chill it is but I do appreciate appreciate the casual gaming. It is almost like playing Sims
when you're a kid. I never really played Animal Crossing, but it's just like you kind of get to
put your life in order. What I can't get over though as I get older is KB, like you said earlier,
when you were talking about you look look at like your balance and animal
crossing and then you're like you know uh bank account in real life it's like it's hard to play
video games as an adult because you're like okay i could play this video game or and i could like
you know level my character up to like level 80 or whatever max level is or i could like level up
in real life like i could like read a book or like work out,
or I could like, you know, I don't know, learn something that I can do as a side hustle or like
whatever it is. And that's not everything in life, but I mean, it's kind of like, it's kind of
important. So, but, but you can, there's definitely a place for play and leisure and all of those
things. So I totally, I totally respect it.
And I think it'll be, I mean, so, but that's the tension that I feel as an adult. Also,
I just don't have that much time, but, but that's so fun. I, you got to report back and I wouldn't
be surprised if, I mean, there's just so much demand. It's actually insane. Like it makes me,
am I crazy KB? It's more bullish Pokemon cards cards that pacopia is as crazy successful as it is
because pokemon is just going to become even more dominant like this game is probably going to be
resonant for at least the next year or two and it's just going to create more pokemon fans
just going to create more fervor like that just seems like a lot the the nintendo stock went up i think 18 since the game came yeah and then um also like
i bought a card that like is a ditto card that um it's coming in tomorrow because of it
it's like a korean i'll pin it it's a korean promo card of like ditto and Pikachu, but I could see like, because, because it's
like focused on Ditto.
Have you, have you heard of like the storyline?
The what line?
Do you know the storyline of Pogopia?
Kind of.
I've heard that it's like, um, it's like, uh, almost like apocalyptic Pokemon world.
And you're like a Ditto that like remembers its trainer
and it's like trying to like re it's almost like terraforming with like the pokemon that are still
left there something like that yeah so basically like all the trainers died and so like so all the
so all the humans have died so like and then the ditto, like, love its trainer. And so it transforms into like a human trainer.
And so then all the Pokemon also have lost their trainers.
So they're all sad.
Like, they're all just like sad lost Pokemon that like need to like,
like deal with like how to being like, you know, wild again.
So like you're the whole point of the game is like to help these like other Pokemon.
And like, you know, and that's like basically the g point of the game is like to help these like other pokemon and like you know
and that's like basically the gist of the game like there's like a charmander that like gets
like you know it's raining and it's like hiding from the rain and you need to like build the
charmander like a home so it doesn't like get you know so its tail doesn't like you know light
whatever like there's a um poke there's a pikachu that loses its power because she gave too much electricity to her friends that, like, needed, like, a home or something.
Like, it's wild.
So that's basically the storyline. because you're a pokemon because you're ditto and you're playing as a pokemon it's the first time
i think in like any of these games that the pokemon actually are talking yeah so they all
so you get to like see their personalities like before in pokemon they're always like pika pika
or like you know whatever squirtle or some shit like that like in the game they're like
portal or some shit like that yeah they're like, they're like talking. Squirtle or some shit like that. Yeah, they're like talking.
So you get to see their personalities and things like that.
So I just penned to the top the card I bought.
Because I do genuinely feel like the Ditto craze will only go up from this game.
I mean, that's such a good...
I mean, the thought...
Nintendo genuinely is just operating at such a high level,
unironically.
It's actually pretty epic.
Because not only is Pokemon just absolutely crushing,
but also they have Super Mario, Zelda, like just the most iconic franchises.
And these games are all, I mean, I'm not really like one for Nintendo games.
It's never been my sweet spot.
But as a kid, I loved them just like everybody else.
And like these, they just seem to always drop bangers.
Like that's just all they do is like release bangers.
So, I mean, huge respect to them.
I mean, and like that, like even just that dynamic of like, you're a ditto, but you can
still look like a human, but now you're able to understand Pokemon.
And then like all of the design, like all I've seen is like the little, like the Charmander
where he's like, I threw up.
And like the little, like the little guys, they just, it's so cute.
It's awesome.
So, hey, Sophie, what's up?
Sophie, are you playing Pocopia?
I'm not, but KB just made such a compelling pitch for it.
I'm like, how will these poor Pokemon find their homes without me?
Right?
Sophie, they need you.
Pikachu gave too much of its electricity to its
friends i know i i'm like i don't even know what console i need but i'm like ready well kb was
just telling us about how it was a 600 startup for her for uh switch and the game oh yeah i don't
own a switch um so raping you. Like, I have a Switch 1,
and I've had, because, you know, I've played fucking Animal Crossing,
so I've had a Switch 1 for, like, 10 years now,
and they're like, nope, need a Switch 2 that's the same exact design
and everything else just to play Pocopia.
I'm like, you fucking bastards.
That's crazy.
Well, I'm open for sponsorship right now. If somebody
buys me a setup, me and KB will play
live on Twitch together.
Like,
I mean,
legitimately, I bet there are people
in the Monit community that probably
would be willing to
donate. I don't know.
I'm not sure if I...
I have $10 to donate. That's like
95% of my portfolio, but I will
give it for you.
Yeah, Chaos will donate
his emo bag.
KB, can you start a coin on
Kuru that is
Sophie's Switch fund?
And then we can
rug everyone
but with consent so that I can play?
This isn't testnet.
So we can't rug everyone?
Wait, are you not allowed to launch coins anymore?
Maybe.
I don't even know if I'm allowed to.
I got to call up my old employer and say,
at what point am I allowed to start rugging?
Rug with consent, though.
With consent.
Only with consent.
That's right.
Consent is important to me.
Maybe you should ask Benja how his rugging with consent went.
How did it go?
Wait, I haven't been in on the gossip.
What happened? Wait, I haven't been in on the gossip. What happened?
Oh, damn.
It was a joke.
It was just a jokey joke.
It was just a joke.
Just a little hee-hee-ha-ha in the morning.
You have to, you can listen.
You have to make light of things in crypto, because no one cares.
Did you see that Jess girl um cozy that also yeah he also
rugged with consent wait this could be wait a second this could be a new narrative
it's like hey listen okay you're standing on this rug right now i am about to pull it out
from underneath you are you okay with this i'm about to pull this rug out from underneath you
i feel like that's just like it's directed donation at that point you know
i've thought a lot of i do think that there is definitely room for innovation in like the crypto charity sphere i feel like there's not really any like breakthrough app and there definitely
could be an idea there,
but I don't know if I'm really smart enough to ever build that.
Should I concept it?
I'll apply to Nitro.
I could say, here we go.
Let me skip that.
It's Kickstarter, but for crypto.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's the idea.
Totally.
Build it.
Okay, I just need a hot dev and a Mac mini.
Let's go. You can go to Jess route um i just pinned to the top i forget oh three months ago i'm viral but not in
a good way my face was all over x and i hadn't done anything to anyone i learned a lot from that
and i don't care anymore i decided i need to earn something off that meme so i'm eternalizing jess
on pop top fun what happened oh Sophie if you weren't
following this we probably even to recap it would probably be too mean to this woman I mean it's
fine she don't care and she just made 20 bandos off her coin because she rugged it um she like
wrote this long thing about how like women in the Web3 space and crypto space get, like, sexualized.
And, like, it was, like, this long-winded thing of, like, these guys were, like, flirting.
Oh, my God, I saw this where, like, they, like, are, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then she just got fucking made fun of because everyone's, like, who's trying to sexualize you type shit.
So, you know, like, it just, it is what it is.
So, um. Oh, my God, but she's still tweeting. She's going. trying to sexualize you type shit so you know like it just it is what it is so um oh my god
but she's still tweeting she's going she's had like six tweets yesterday oh my god so then she
and then so she went viral because everyone's making fun of her and because it's crypto and
it is you know we live listen everyone's a glass house here everyone has has scammed has rugged
has tweeted about a rug has you know like
like you can't say anything without you know having some type of like you know history behind
you because like you probably tweeted about something that rugged like it's just we all
we're all in glass houses here so she isn't a glass but throw the stone k KB. Throw it. I know. That's why I don't throw stones. And so, I kind of just did.
But at the end of the day, she just, yeah.
So she created a pump fun coin so that she could, you know, make money.
And she did.
And it rubbed.
It's all so tiresome.
I just, her message is just so depressing.
That just really is like
actual nihilism
and that's why
we're all collecting Pokemon cards
I mean legitimately
that's actually true
I was going to tweet this I might still
but like I just think that
look I'm open to be
I get that this could be the top and everything
and maybe you look back and you're like be I like I get that this could be the top and everything or
like and maybe you look back and you're like I paid too much for this Pokemon card whatever blah
blah blah but like the supply there the demand for Pokemon cards is so much more organic and higher
than it ever was for NFTs and the supply supply is so much more constrained. Like there are only so many
like good condition gold star Pokemon. There are only so many good condition like shadowless base
set Pokemon. Like I'm not talking about everything. I'm not saying everything is going to go up in
price forever because I don't believe that. But like the grails legitimately are like some
of these cards are like pop like 250 or like pop like 1000 or even like pop under 100. And so like
they could just get pumped so ridiculously hard like and they probably have a much better claim
to being actually worth it than like, you know, Bored Apes ever were. Like the price, I'm just totally, I think it's because we're in crypto,
but I'm just like totally unfazed by like the prices that these cards are
selling for. They're like, Oh, like this, you know,
very rare card sold for a million dollars. Can you believe it?
I'm like a million dollars.
I'm like that card is probably worth like $20 million.
Like it's, it's, They're worth like insane amounts probably.
And so I hate to be that guy.
Look, I'm open to buying the top and all that stuff.
But I genuinely think that if you could...
The only thing that I think is tricky is it's the same as with crypto
is that you have to worry about custodying it.
Like, do you really want a card that's worth like $15,000
in like a PSA slab case, like plastic case
in like your dresser or like in like your closet, like one, it could, you know, it could
like burn down.
Somebody could steal it from you.
You have to send it to like maybe a vault and then there's like custody concerns.
Now, look, there's ways to do it.
I'm just saying it's like equally fraught to like having a crypto wallet
with like X thousands of dollars on it in your basement,
which I feel slightly uncomfortable with as well.
But yeah, no, I mean, I just think things could go way higher.
I know I could be totally just buying into the hype and everything,
but I genuinely believe that.
Go for it. I go for it.
I don't know, you know, I just
I can't be trusted
with a Pokemon card because I'll
fold the corner or some shit.
Like, that's just too
fragile of an asset for me to have.
Have you ever seen them in like the PSA
slabs though where like they're kind of like covered
in plastic and stuff
I mean they're still somewhat fragile to an extent
Like you can't like drop them or something
But like you're not gonna like break them
No you can't drop them or something I'm already fucked
No no no
So you can like you have like the raw cards
Yeah you would fuck up immediately Sophie
But they put them in these like protective like plastic
Leave Yes that's what they did for me i
pulled like a really holographic gold shiny pokemon card when i was in korea from like one of those
packs and they put it in a plastic sleeve for me and by the time i got home it was bent
no these are like hard though what you're thinking of are probably like maybe like uh
yeah like a sleeve or like a top loader. But these are like almost like an acrylic case.
Yeah, you have to probably get it sent off.
Like they probably give you a sleeve.
You need like a plastic.
You need a sleeve and then a plastic top loader on top of that.
And then a plastic hard case on top of that.
So there's levels.
There's levels to this shit.
But also what I've seen too. Like, I mean, it's not funny because I feel, like, bad about it.
But, like, I thought it was funny because it was a bunch of sealed product.
And I kind of, like, also don't like the sealed product collectors.
I think they're just scalpers.
Like, just open the fucking house you fucking losers but anyways um so there's like this
like one guy that like has like a bunch of sealed packs and like slabs and all this shit like and
all displayed and then there's like massive tornado warnings like in his area and he was
free he was like crashing out because he's like what the fuck am I gonna do like he's like literally like trying to like put
all his Pokemon shit in his
like cellar and it doesn't fit
because there's too much and I'm like that's like another
thing like these packs
these seal packs and all this shit
can get destroyed in natural disasters
like yeah
yeah unlike my crypto
NFTs which are forever
safe until I get
drained.
Right? That's what we call it when people
steal your NFT.
Nothing is safe.
I got the lingo.
You got the lingo.
A hurricane of a digital sort.
Yeah, anytime
there's a hurricane now and I have to evacuate,
now I gotta evacuate all my Pokemon cards
and my ledger and my computer.
Yeah, you're like,
you're like,
you're like evacuating them. They're in like a humidor.
You've got like the little like silica
packets to like keep them like
moisturized. Like,
it's ridiculous the stuff that you need to do
to take care of pokemon cards so insane
the apocalypse and society crumbles and everyone's fleeing and you have like people
they're sealed fucking 151 product like running with pokemon cards it's like it's like you're in
like a post-apocalyptic world and and you're going to trade with someone,
and one guy is like, I have wheat on offer.
And one guy is like, I've got an ounce of gold here.
And the other, I'll shave some of it off for you.
And another guy is like, I have right here a first edition ditto.
like i have right here a first edition ditto
he's like let me tell you this used to be worth a lot this is a psa 8 gem near gem mint
i once dated a man who collected things and we he went to the Comic-Con, and he brought back, he was like,
I got all these comics, but I sent them off to get graded. And I was like, who's got the rubric?
Like, I really couldn't wrap my head around the fact that there were, like, people just grading.
I liked it. You know, it's fun. It's fun. The whole subculture.
Sophie, if he collected Pokemon cards, he might be, he's probably rich.
He might be rich now.
You might need to call this man back.
No, no, we don't need to do that.
All right.
Yeah, no.
But yeah, he might be rich.
Good for him.
I hope he's rich.
Because you know what?
Some people aren't going to get there from their brains.
You know?
Some people are going to get there from their Pokemon collections.
That's true.
We both, like, when I found out he didn't understand, like, simple, simple geometry.
Yeah.
You do, like, you do imagine.
I don't know what, like, the places where, like, rich people, like, associate.
But you imagine it's, like, you know, like, clubs or, like, country. Yeah, like, country clubs or, like, whatever, like rich people like associate but you imagine it's like you know like clubs or like country yeah like country clubs or like whatever like the high you know like members
only restaurants and stuff like that and you show up it's like one guy's like yeah i founded a uh
fortune 100 company and another guy's like yeah i was a uh commodities trader very successful
and other guys like uh yeah uh i went to comic-Con. Lots of comic books that I got graded. They were all tens. I love Pokemon cards.
That's crazy. Honestly, I feel like that guy's having the most fun out of all of them.
Oh, for sure. 100%. 100%. No, that's so true. I mean guys are like yeah three divorces
my children
don't talk to me
yeah it's been a
it's been a hard road
but I'm glad to have built
the dynastic wealth
that I have
and the other guy's like
look at my gaming chair
it's awesome
yeah he's like
I got a new gaming chair
he's like
he's like
he's like
my daughter likes
the pretty colors on the cards.
Yeah.
He's like, my 3D printers are all running.
Yeah.
Oh, dude.
That's really funny.
Yeah, that's actually a good bit.
Did you guys just see that Machi made a coin?
Machi made a coin?
He was so down bad.
Didn't he have like $8,000 left?
Yeah, he got completely liquidated on hyper liquid.
Should I pin this? Don't buy it. I'm pinning it for awareness no one buy it please can i pin it or no yeah yeah you can bet okay but it could be he could be hacked but like he
probably just isn't hacked and he just literally created a coin which is like he says which is
like his second coin isn't it didn't he have he have a coin like two years ago?
He says CA. There's no CA. And then he
just says Ticker Machi.
Dude, it's like that's not a CA
brother. I guess
I don't know what's going on.
Dude. Dude.
What's happening? I hate it here.
I'm gonna... You guys are never
gonna see me again one day
If you ever go fully offline you have to send me like a carrier pigeon and we'll meet up with to barbecue
Okay, deal
Yeah, that's I'd like that. I'm I'm I would love to be fully offline someday.
That's kind of the goal.
They didn't invite you, though, to the barbecue.
No, no.
That's true.
That's true.
Kozy can come to the barbecue, but he can't bring his kids.
It's not that kind of barbecue.
Sorry.
Wow.
Sorry.
He just said, fuck them kids.
I just, yeah, true.
I did.
Oh, man. you can bring your kids
you can bring your kids but not to the barbecue
well how old are the kids
if they're babies and they can't like
process things they could come to the
barbecue
I mean they're like
they're toddlers
they would be we're saying, they're toddlers. I mean, they would be...
No, no, we're saying things they're going to repeat.
And they, I can't.
No, no, thank you.
I'll hang out with them on a different occasion,
but not at the barbecue that I'm throwing to celebrate KB going offline.
You know?
I know.
No, no.
Hey, I get it.
I get it.
Yeah, I'm like, it's not a kid-friendly environment.
I can imagine it.
See, but if you don't have kid-friendly environments,
it's like maybe someday there's not going to be any more barbecues at all.
But that's fine with me.
I could throw the last greatest barbecue there'd ever been.
Oh, that's so sad.
No, like there's never going to be any more like sorry i was giving a joke and i
actually don't think i should make it on the internet so um new team i don't know now i'm
distracted okay yeah no they're not coming to the barbecue there are parties that have happened that
won't ever happen again you know that's true that's true. Epstein Islands kind of closed down for good.
But, Sophie, you didn't have crazy Jewish parties when you were a kid,
and you shouldn't have been there,
and your Jewish family's partying until it's 6 a.m.?
No, we totally did.
My grandma used to host a party on Christmas
that she used to call White Christmas at the Cornix,
and it was called that because everyone did coke.
And she's an old lady but everyone
on the block knew and she would like have her doors open i didn't find that out till i was
later i just thought it was grandma's christmas party but um yeah i guess you could keep if you're
fine with your kids around like um a lot of drugs and swearing like they can come to the barbecue hey uh you know i'll think i'll think
about it drag queens if you're fine with that you can your kids can come to the barbecue
that's your prerogative as a parent i i know when uh i know when uh when kb goes fully offline i'll
just i'll have that decision to make and i'll just keep an eye out for the carrier pigeon and uh
yeah no we'll we'll go from there.
But by the time we go fully offline, your kids will probably be grown and won't want to hang out with you anyways.
Oh, if they're grown, they can totally come to the party.
Maybe Cozy's not invited, but the kids are.
They may very well be more fun than I am.
I mean, yeah, who knows?
We got to see how they turn out first.
You have two, right?
And another on the way, Sophie.
Oh, you're pregnant?
That's amazing.
I know.
I know.
Oh, my God.
Shout out your wife.
What a labor of love.
I know.
I know.
That's awesome.
Oh, I'm so happy for you.
Well, thank you.
I do love a new baby, just not at a barbecue, but they're always welcome for dinner, you know?
Totally. Totally. Oh, man totally oh man well kb we should
probably wrap it up here tell me about some crypto stuff there's no market no there's i mean there's
really no market to speak of that's why we're spacing but we are going so guys we're going kb
and i literally have said that we need to game plan these streams at the Foundry next week. So we'll be taking this as some time to get dialed in and figure out what we should keep doing,
how we should keep on bringing you guys some good content.
But this space has been really fun.
So thanks for coming out, guys.
I think we should go probably go do some actual work.
But this is good, guys.
But this is good guys. So yeah, KB keep us posted on the on the Pocopia
