Hey guys, can y'all hear me?
Thank you. Yeah, what's up? I can hear you. Okay. Good deal
Got on my computer and my phone at the same exact time and I was scared my
Computer was trying to pick it up. I
Gotcha. Yeah, sometimes it kicks me off if I try to get on the space for my laptop, too
It'll kick me off in my phone. Yeah, and I was jamming the nickel back at the same time
There you go some good tunes. Yeah
How you been man?
I've been all right
You know same old same. Well, how have you been?
busy busy busy busy, man
You know, it's a juggling act right? Life is like a juggling act
of course
family kids
Yep, then you have to Dana on top of that. It's a freaking nightmare. I
Man, how's your how's your pack going?
It's going. I
Didn't look at it at all today, but I need to
Keep it going. It was a having that live with the mirror the other day was really helpful
Yeah, I jumped in for a little bit
for a few minutes and then I had to bail and go
We had a good time I'm having an issue figuring something out, but I'm not done with like with my first like actual contract
Yeah, it's like I just I send money to it and
What's the four ways for whenever really my plan wins tournaments
So we have Hank up here, what's up, man?
How you been man
Thanks offline
What kind of tank is it
Yeah, that's always fun man, we used to have to do that when I was a chevron
you know, we pull a tank down and open it up and it's
It's an act of Congress to get license and permits to go inside of one of those things
Oh, yeah, especially in the oil industry. Yeah, nothing for us right just frickin do it and
Have your gas meters and that's it. Yeah, we had to wear all the monitors all over our bodies, you know
It picked up or since any kind of chemical or whatever gas it would
Alarm and go all
Yeah, it's a little easier on the water side. Yeah a
Little bit
Yeah, I'll just have to go in there inspect inspect welds and
Leaks and stuff the floor
Well, they're concrete tanks
What is it?
Their metal reinforced all that, you know, but the concrete tanks so they go and I check the floor
Make sure they ain't cracks and holes and all that
Make sure the integrity of the structure is all good, right?
and then um, you know, it's
And then once it's good, you know spray everything down a bleach and put it back a line. Yeah
so those are more though that those are more drinking water tanks or
No, yeah, I'll drink
Yeah, I want to make sure those are clear homes and blows
Then they clean out, you know
Usually there's always a good little inch inch and a half dirt in the bottom. Yeah, that's just cuz it all the wells
You know, right?
Well, I'm sure you have some type of sediment or something that settles
Yeah, they're always there. Yeah, you got to clean it
Yeah, we would always have those in the tanks as well, I mean when you get because we'd do water, you know
You'll so the water will settle at the bottom
Yeah, we would always have to do the water drop for that all kind of junk nasty. Oh, yeah
I'll see people funneling in
Nice chat about tanks guys. Yeah
I hope you learned something new today. Yeah
Learn something about tanks. Thank you. Yeah, thank you. Thank you. All right. Yeah
You didn't have horse riding lessons today
No, that's yesterday. Oh, yes
Fine I just got home from a Lowe's do some bathroom stuff
Yeah, I need to go there myself
Trying to finish up the remodel on the bathroom
It's pretty much done I gotta do
some corrections that
the concrete or
the countertop is saw or screwed up my drywall so I have to correct that and then I got a caulk all the baseboards and
everything and
Install the toilet and that's about it
That's not bad
See you probably have let down the flowers
You gotta let the paint dry. Oh, well, yeah
That probably deep it's warm enough down there though. That should probably drop pretty quick. Yeah, well, you're always fighting that humidity though
We do painting it's you know, it's supposed to be every 24 hours of code whatever
Figure on you tagging everybody with the face
Yep, I already did a couple of rounds
Unless I'm running through doing right now. Actually matter of fact, I need to spread it around telegram a little bit
Tell us fam
Yeah, I can't stand it either
Yeah, not the biggest fan of telegram either but
Dropped in there every now and then mainly just to send my links around. Yeah, I've hit
I've been hit and scam twice both times. It was on telegram. I don't get on
You just twist my arm
Not the biggest fan at all. I
prefer discord way more
Because I'll join a telegram group and then the next thing I know there's like four more of the same identical telegram groups and
I don't know which ones which the only one I know is
5,000 people talking. I'm like that that looks like the one the main one
Yeah, two people talking to yeah, so
You'll get some fake spam on
Yeah, I've clicked on the wrong one and jacked up
It's funny cuz they will just pop into your stuff like there is no pocket it just shows up in your stuff
You're like, oh really? Yeah, I was like as far as I know there's nothing you can do about
All right, we got a curator in the house and I'll let him up here. I see that man. I like his PFP, dude
He's already doing something. I think that's okay. I believe that's it for a KDA, but absolutely
What's up curator what's going on fellas what's going on
surviving the game
I'm trying to catch a second wind or the cup of coffee
And then roll that not at all
Back when I had office job, I drink coffee all day long. Ooh, that's rough
When you work at home, you gotta find different ways to motivate
Right, it's like, well, what do I do next? I gotta do. Oh, let's go get some more coffee real quick
The office I was addicted to it
I've never been that big of a coffee guy
Morning 20 ounce and that's about it
Yeah, I don't know man I
When I was growing up my father-in-law or at the time he was
My girlfriend's dad, but we would go deer hunting
He would bring one of those big ol, you know tall green thermos
Family things of yeah, the Stanley. Yeah, he'd bring a Stanley with him to the
I wouldn't a coffee guy either and when I did drink coffee, man
He would be like creamer and sugar and junk and you know, super unhealthy crop and I just could handle the flavor
But anyway, he would like hey you want some coffee. He'd had me a styrofoam cup
But of course, you know, I was too like intimidated from him to go no
So I would take it and I would just like
Squint and just sip on it and sip on it until eventually it get cold and he would look and I just sleep in the ditch
I just wouldn't drink it. But eventually over time, I started liking it. Like today man, like I grabbed all
You know, I met it's on a scale. Yeah, I didn't got all bougie and shit with coffee. So
Know who's behind the Mike Perry account?
I'm not entirely sure. I think it's um, I'm not I think it might be
You know people work maxi
on Twitter
It is Twitter's
I'm not sure who it is. I
Think I might have an idea about know if you want to doxing them
Yeah, thumbs up yeah
There there we go
We got in here. We got skellies gain a bet what he's in here Buddha easel. What's up guys?
Fake Mike Aaron in the house. I think that's a real Mike Aaron. No, that's the fake one
Did you um, did you talk to Michael here this week? Did he say he couldn't make it you couldn't make it
But I knew his whole
Like everybody in the house was sick. So I'm sure yeah, that's what you're saying. Thanks. He's where we at
He was having some meetings and stuff. So
He'll be back and then I heard like Steven saying something about
If we pick up the Chicago Cubs or something, he's gonna sit behind the dugout
He's getting season tickets which you need to get a couple extra cuz I want to go Steven
So I'm gonna come up there with you and go to the game. So just up. Why?
Buy more than just one season ticket cuz you're gonna need to take a guest. Yep
I'd make it three
Was gonna say that's like kind of one of our talking points today if you want to go ahead and jump into that
All right, well, yeah, I mean we're filled up a decent amount in here we can go ahead and get it going I
Think the last last week's format went well
So we'll get into that for a little bit and I think it's nice kind of having like a little warm-up where we kind
Of just feel it out and say what's up to you everyone, but we're about 15 minutes in now
I got a good bit people in so welcome in everyone
And I guess we can go ahead and talk about Kadena bet if you want
Okay, have you have you minted yours yet? I have not you know
I I was getting I was trying to get on to Steven cuz he waited till they went back down freaking a doll
You know, I wanted to man wait with a DA was a dog fishy, right? So
Yeah, I'm gonna catch 22 there and I'm not willing to give the KDA just yet
So as long as I've got a 30-day window, I'm just gonna see if KDA will do a little back
So with our luck probably not hot but I've been I've been in the same in the same boots
Yeah, I haven't minted yet either and I think Kadena was down to like 95 cents
It was have you seen the chart beat? It was crazy. It was like
95 97 95 97 like it had some big jumps. I don't know what right. I don't know what was causing it, but I
Don't know if people were buying and selling but that take a whole lot of that to
Make it jump that big
of course
Well, speaking of getting a bet reason why I brought them up. I have
First off, let me pen something here that I sent to Kevin
They are officially minting and I know this has been a and we were kind of already talking about this but
Hasn't been too long of a time coming but it's felt like it could we've all been so eager to meant and so the time's
Finally here. You can jump in there discord and follow the instructions to get that done
You'll have to do it on a PC. You can't do it on mobile for now
but yeah, it's I know a lot of us could anians have been really excited about this project coming back and building and
I'm glad to be a part of it. Although I'm technically not yet as I haven't minted. I need to get my shit together
What was it when you bought
Like a dollar three or something. I don't even remember. I I just took it out of my mining fund
I mean, I guess if we were playing with kind of money
Well, it looks like we got a KDA bet here they want to you want to say anything
Perhaps and I recently he's been saying that he's been liking to just listen because I believe they're working and building some stuff
We can we get him as distracted pretty easily
We also got another speaker on stage
Kevin we got bad girl and crypto
I'm not familiar with who that is. But if you want to go ahead and say something, what's up?
Yeah, they requested to speak so I let them in so yeah, it's a badger land crypto
My god, Ron you crashed his freakin name
You killed it. Oh, that's bad. I don't know
Those those of no, that's you're not the only person that has said that so every time somebody says it I'm like, yep
I I respect it. So
Well that what happens in the space is I just see like the first part
So I think that just says B A D G R L. That'll do it. That'll do it
No, but I know I'm having a little bit from his community and from Kadena hashing and some other
Communities, so I wanted to stop in and I'm pretty stoked
I got my own set of Kadena miners that are going online next week. So nice. What were once?
The KA threes, so I got 14 of them
Coming on it's a pretty yeah. Yeah, so bring some heat there got some
Light going to enjoy miners too and then I'm playing around with Casper. So
Yeah, I got a bunch of l7s
Got some Ivy links, but those Ivy links are not my favorite
No, not you and me both. I've got one from the the k3
Is that what you have?
No, I got the
K1s man. They're like
Underwatering. Oh, geez. Yeah, even my k3s are doing nothing
Yeah, and I just haven't had a good experience that I be linked their their support is pretty horrible
I've had a lot of good experiences with
You know compass mine
You know pricing there's pretty reasonable because
What's that I was gonna say I don't think anybody's ever said that
Well, I mean I guess the way that I look at it is
Yeah, you're gonna end up paying that tariff be anyway, so compass is a little more expensive, but
You know getting support from them has been pretty good
We we had some issues and they owed us some credits and instead of giving us the credits
They just freaking gave us machines and we're like cool
There's that's pretty cool. That's very cool. I keep seeing 100s from Kadena bet so they must be in agreement
Badger are you doing any immersion mining or ever clocking you just running them at will overclock the
L7s will overclock
The Casper miners a little bit I'm afraid to overclock the k8 threes because they're just temperamental
Right, so I would love to get my hands on the Kadena mining club software that they have that
They say they can squeeze up to like 220 tera hash out of them
It's been 210 for a while
But they've been thinking at a new one called beast mode that I could squeeze like 240 out of them
Apparently takes up less, you know, do you is it the stock head?
Is it the stock PSU that they use because I just can't imagine those stock PSUs hold up. I
Believe it's an upgraded power supply. So that makes a little more sense
I'm not sure I'm gonna hold you to it. This is recording
You are yeah, you're on the hot seat I
Saw that they had just mentioned something about it though on their Twitter
And I think well, so we're in a doubt Kevin and I were in a doubt where ten of us have split a K3
and we've been waiting for that to come in line because
KMC is hosting it for us and we're still waiting and we've been waiting for a while
but February supposed to be the month and it's February 1st, so
Hopefully good things will happen this month and you'll find out about that beast mode software and
We'll get hashes really cool really really cool. Well, there's a there's actually about five or six of us in here in that
Yeah, there you go. Hank Rama
Slim's in here too. Some wasn't member, but he sold his share. Oh
We got a mirror trying to jump up here to you also have Tempe in the house
If anybody else is selling their share
I always like getting in on stuff like that and do it now with a group of people
Uh, I wouldn't trust this badger guy
Look we got Steven hit Steven's take Stephen. He's jumping in too now. Here we go. Oh
If Stevens comes up then I'm gonna take my voice teacher out
Takes up an hour of the show. Can we hear from parody Mike Huron, please? Thank you
Mike can you jump up here, please? Please join my questions for you
There's some questions. I'm really curious. Does Mike actually does a parody account actually speak. I
Don't think they ever have no, I mean we can do impressions if that will do they'll do the job
No, I think you can only do the thumbs up
I see. I see. Yeah, I would now does a laughing emoji. So it does two things
Alright, so let me let me see. Let me let me look at them. Hey Mike, tell me here
Seems like you see you like leaving companies a lot. You can't seem to stay at one for more than two years
I mean two years is you know pushing it when are you gonna be leaving Kadena?
Can you give me a thumbs up or thumbs down as far as how many months or that's gonna take?
All right, looks like it's gonna be today zero thumbs up or down coming in hot
That's what happens when somebody over at Tempe leaks their you know, they're there could credentials to action this happens
Right, I wasn't expecting that to be completely honest
And this is the same question I asked him last week, let's be serious we all know the answer already
We do we do and we got a whole a whole description of his work history
We found out that Mike worked at red solo cup
That was a really great move that was a great move on his part
I felt like he was really doing you know his job at trying to not answer the question by providing a work history
And play by play as opposed to saying no, I believe in what the company's doing
I like where I'm at and there's nothing that's gonna get me out of here
But you know to each his own I mean, he's kind of stuck. He's he's a Bears fan
So we have to take that into consideration
Yeah, everybody knows that if you really want to win into this space you got to be a Chiefs fan Chiefs you front-runner
What do you mean? It's just that that's it's how the marketing dollars work you can they win
NFL makes more money. Thank you Swifties
We talk about how Randy's a Patriots fan oh
No, he has had his two decades of fun. He can live through a couple years of pain
So I don't even know who that is. But that's that's my opinion on Patriots fans
Well, I'm a stealer Shane over here
So I kind of hear that because we're absolutely horrible now
I mean our records not the and not the worst
But we're not very good and I think I kind of got spoiled growing up with some some good years
It was good, man. You're right. It was almost like hey, let's go hang out and have some yinglings
And then you find out there's a real beer in the world
Do you see Randy at the development conference? He was wearing a Patriots hoodie
What does that mean? Action? What does that mean?
All right, give me a play-by-play here he's wearing a hoodie, I'm guessing this was to make a statement, right
He was at a super developer UX conference somewhere in Europe like Belgium and he was wearing an American NFL
Patriots hoodie with the Patriots logo on it. What does that mean? Well
obviously
people overseas have no idea what
American football is
Since the the number of people that watch football comparison soccer is minuscule. He was trying to make an American stand right there
I think it was just about the the red white and blue more than the football itself
Well, wait a second guys. Maybe Mike Aaron down here in the crowd can confirm this for us
Maybe this is the new sports partnership. We've all heard about
We're getting the New England Patriots guys, yeah, he should know I mean he said he's been running Kadena since
2021 since he lots do and will in the basement in Sweden. Yep. I
Have a personal feeling it's gonna be Mike's kids little league team, but that's
I mean, you're right. I mean Ben Armstrong, right bit boy did sponsor his kids softball like it happens
Hey, I sponsor my kid my daughter softball team. I'm also the coach
You're still here
I have to keep you in line man
And look where that got him now. He needs a sponsor. Oh
Talking about sponsorships you all heading out to the conference over in Orlando
Anybody in Florida looking to hang out what conference is that the world?
Web 3 conference
When is it it's gonna be March
Hang on it's gonna be March 8th and 9th. Oh, I better change my flight
Yeah, I didn't even know I heard of it so it's a small it's a small conference
But y'all should it'll be nice if anybody wants to get a booth. He's still you got some booths available
I know the people so maybe I can try to get you guys and out of this count if you need tickets
Let me know to actually gotta get me message
Jason asking for a discount for the conference itself as well
Not the Tempe accounts gonna get a bunch of DMS about discounts
Right. No, no, you guys don't even DM action for discounts. Not sent a not empty
Ron I have a question about Wizards. Can I ask it? Yeah, go ahead
Why is the Wizards map on the new game feature the amazing new game feature
Lands or I don't know what it's called or Lord
Lords, why is it a direct copy of Elder Scrolls Tamriel map? It is not we've talked about this before
All right. It looks similar to similar layout, but it's not the same
You might get sued with MW as a head, right?
So, you know, he might like lend his lawyers to you know, Elder Scrolls
And it's a big company man. You don't want to get sued by them
Will you add more land masses to the game
Maybe we've been using the same one for a while now
There actually is one down at the bottom of the same maps little tiny island. I call that one round island
Maybe we move in there
It's like Shigarot's realm almost a little bit
Remember whenever we talked about it before I'd compared the maps on it and they do look similar, but it's not the exact same
I also didn't make it. I wasn't even involved in making it. I was all Wario
It does the job if we ever get sued I'll make sure I got you and MW on my side
Are we like trashing with Wizards arena today? Is that is that the plan that is not the plan?
Okay, so, you know, what's really funny y'all should try to like look up Wizards arena on like Google or something
You're gonna get the freaking Capital One arena and you're gonna see the Washington Wizards
What's up with that who is your search engine optimization guy obviously you're you're you're lacking on that front
Hey, I don't know anything about that
Isn't it unfortunate? It is slightly unfortunate
Unfortunate and I'm not gonna lie. I've tried to pitch this a bunch of web three players. I'm like, dude
This is what I do for money. This is why I'm able to do web three old times because I make money on this on the side
Well, it's kind of it's kind of hard whenever there's something with a similar name, you know, that's not so much bigger
No, you just need to be better than them
Well, if you look up Wizards arena Kadena it probably comes up
Go away now because you have auras which can be upgraded defensively. So now he won't go when defense again
Honestly all he always says that defense needs fix and needs to be better because every single time he built something
He only upgrades the defense. So it probably would make him happy. He probably likes it. Oh
He's got a lot of it, I don't even know if he knows it yet
Yeah, he's he's not around much
He comes in our discord about once a day to say fuck with seven cues and say guys with Aziz at the end and then
He'll just say a couple of other things and then we won't hear from him until like
I was about to ask are you sure that's him? But the way he described the way he types. It's definitely him
Yeah, no doubt about that
All right, Kevin well you want to bring up another one of our talking points
Yes, sir, so he ended up menting at the um
Last thing I didn't know I didn't know if we finished saying everything about that
So, um, well, I told her to ask Stephen how the process has been going. I mean, how many people have minted
How's it going? Is he going smooth? Any hiccups? Thank you. We had what 40 40 40 admitted
About a hundred now, how are you?
There you go
About halfway in and it's mostly the MW whale pool crowd. He's not showing up. So shout out to them
But everyone else is showing up in kind. We did have a couple of mistakes with koala
so I'm not sure how your guys minting going those Kevin and Ron but
We get a lot of TTL errors when people don't sync up their walk or their computers to the time
Yeah, so like that really confused us but it's been really really smooth
So shout out to Pascal and NG zero problems and chain web
Perfect. So everything is going really good. And I hope you all come in and
If you want to if you want to give like a little 30, yeah, I was gonna say what's the TLDR on on this
I'm looking I see I see a sports book and I got I'm intrigued
Tell people what you're what the betting is what we're doing. Oh
Well, very simple. So as as explained before the NFT is
Just a partial ownership of the work product which starts from zero
So it's not no security or anything like that because we started from zero, right? So like Bitcoin, so we're building up this
Protocol to take bets and so what we have is a connection to a casino provider
So we started actually building that today. So they have all the games already built
Like period so all we have to do is build Pam which is called player access management just to make sure that
You know players aren't abusing the system and stuff
So we're building that API now look and have that out in 45 days and fully licensed
So that's gonna come real quick
so things like blackjack all the very regular stuff that we do and
At the other end of the game
I mean you could just go on to our weekly update and look at it if you really want to know where I just
Battle on for now. I could listen to you. I know just for the TLD. I like it. Yes, I'm sorry
But you know, I'll try to just end it really quick here
The TLDR on the sportsbook side is we just ingested about a half a terabyte of eSports data
Very granular and that allows us to build machine learning models, which will be the first kind of real AI
You know, I guess Amira's first AI product
Would be the second AI product on Kadena and that's gonna help us make really really tight odds
Okay, we got like so much data. I showed it to me or the other day. It's just insane
So we'll make really good odds for that and then we have access to the live streaming
So you'll have live counter strike streaming games kind of like extraction might be I really hope they launch
And then what we'll do is we'll license that up and start taking in players from our partners that we have set up
And so the idea is it's like, you know connect that up to the Kings so that when we get that taken
We we hold a piece of it and then we distribute that to the Kings. So the the goal is to be line
Complete focus to making profit on Kadena for the cane holders
That's all we care about people need to make money on this blockchain
It's it's about time and so we're gonna hopefully be one doubt to do that and I'll end it there
Yeah, no, that's good man. Yeah, the King is a decentralized dial on the work product
There's 500 holders and the Kings can mint nights
NFTs give better perks and this is some of the stuff you put in some of the thread
And it's a large family that backs each other on Kadena I like it I'm ready for it I
Just hope MW doesn't sue us Ron. Please please tell not to
It's been a scare tactic every time but I guess we've seen that he's actually been capable of doing that
in the past, but
You'll be good. Yeah, Ron's an expert on being sued. So he knows exactly what to do or not to do
Yeah, I just I just went through my fourth time on Kadena being threatened to be sued
It was a good time
Yeah, yeah
Well, let's see I took around but that's shouldn't
No, it shouldn't it's kind of silly
There's just a few select people in this space that are just freaking cuckoo
Yeah, I know man we were like when we first started doing our NFTs, you know when we were doing
traits and stuff
We really wanted to make some cool traits that like we were really scared to some point of like well
What if what if we put something on there? That's like a Disney looking animation and then down?
You know, we're gonna sue you because you make me off of one of our characters or you know
Right now nobody everybody seems to be cool like nobody really cares but
Where's it? Where does it wind up and you don't know who's gonna?
Start suing people so you still have to be cautious. I
I believe there wasn't a marmalade tutorial like a year ago where they used Disney characters it like to a mint NFTs
Yeah, I mean you see it, but
It always kind of on the back of my mind. It all kind of scared me to
Of course to do that, you know, you just never like you said you never heard who's gonna be cuckoo and just
Well, anyway, so I'll take it in a bet guys
Give them a follow join their discord and whatnot if you were a king jump in sadly
It is pretty much a private meant everyone who's been whitelisted is already in there
So, you know shilling wish unless you want to gamble and you
Yeah, unless you want to gamble or be a night use the sports book or be a night hit me up. I'll
I'll be the king. So yeah, it's like hit any of us up. We'll be a king for you. Yeah, there we go
Now see we got two more people on stage one of you guns go and talk say something what do you got for us?
Yeah, I think we've got the anarchist up here first
Which was that
Anarchist
Yeah, oh, yeah
Are you there
They might be rugged
Maybe well in the meantime
0.5. I don't even know how to say this stauvers dot Stark
Fire fam, maybe five fire fam something like that. What do you got anything for us? What's up?
I'm uh, I'm not familiar with these with these folks Kevin. So if they're if they're quiet for too long
Yeah, what's up man what you got
Yeah guys
I'm happy to talk man
Actually, I was gonna ask a
Tim P a question when I see Tim P a minute. I just want to jump in
You there Tim P
Got action CEO on the Tempe account if he's still with us, I'm sure he'll be he'll be willing to answer your question
Go ahead I was gonna ask I was gonna ask about this blockchain event that the TP go to
What was it? Berlin?
Block chain event. I was wondering what happened back there. I
Mean did Tim P meet potential investors
DC something like that
Well, it seems like Tim P's not here right now, so
We may have to hold tight wait till action gets back
Yeah, maybe if you want to drop your question down in the comments that when he comes back
I'll tell you that you left a message for him and you'll try to answer it
No, it's okay. I'll wait. It's okay. Oh good. I
Will be listening
Okay, thanks
Now you're welcome man
Tim P was that a cyberpunk with a Kevin? I believe so. Yeah, I thought I saw some of their ads there. Yeah, I
Seen somebody down in little
Earlier too that was from taping, but I don't know if they're still here at all
Iran is is Heron on the chat topics today. I would like to hear him here
It is it is that's actually what I'm about to talk about next. So we haven't here on the stage
I have something to pen real quick. Let me go into my DMS with Kevin. Here we go
This is something I'm most excited about actually this is our number one talking a point
But we talked about a Canadian bets first, which is equally as exciting
Went and clicked on the link and went to a mere sight and it's it's pretty sick. They don't
I've pumped about it. Well, I'm assuming squeegee did that squeegee's an absolute wizard when it comes to front end
Well, and he's getting better every time he does sometimes he just gets
No, that was that was
Believe it or not, right? So I think that was like two days, right?
I think that took him like two days. So
we try to
It sounds fast and we'll tweak stuff, you know over time, but we tried to keep the site simple other than graphically
because that wasn't the point right I I
Think the the cool thing is like between him and I and some of the other we work with is we all do something
Different I can build a website very very fast. I just can't make it pretty like him
And so it's kind of cool. I always love
Working with him because if we need packed he knows packed and if we need front-end we both know front-end
I think where we deviate a little bit is I like to build API. That's kind of like my bread and butter
And I like I like that interaction and he understands all that too
But man, he's just like a killer front-end Devin. He's like I said, he just keeps getting better
So we've got some other I know that's not the point of this, but we've got some other projects that are
coming up we just
sometimes they take forever and
We can't talk about them. And so it's like even for us. We're kind of like are we supposed to do this?
Are we not supposed to do this?
So I think this year we've we've got a little more structure and we'll be able to push stuff out faster because like that site
It's not a template right? We build these things from scratch
We we try to do everything from scratch and but we do have components. We do have rules. We do have logic
We do have styling that we can import quickly, right from our other projects
and so it's actually just becoming easier and easier to play so
As we help other projects as we work on our own stuff. I think you'll see at least the effort
to make things
That one was more visually appealing like the marketplace we have that one's supposed to be more professional looking and so we try to
Have a little bit of fun with these things. And so the the the Heron
Project was basically more of
Everybody who's ever been talked before knows that I love bots. So I
Built I built a bot and I've built a couple of them
I've I've usually try to share out at least the base code for those so others can copy them and the bots are really geared for
Kadena interactions, although with wallet connect I pretty much could make anything work. So that's one of the things that I've been playing with and
Just to see what we can do to bridge things across
kind of boundaries a little bit but for now, let's focus on what's in front of us and get that working and so a
couple of you actually out here probably seen at least bits and pieces of what that box can do and looks like and really what
What I'm thinking
Kind of long-term is it'll be a nice
Avenue for people to go in telegram to go in the discord
I actually have integrations with Twitter for a lot of our products and that big immigration is gonna come out later
Which will allow me to bridge
Between packs between Twitter between discord telegram. So to me and front-end websites, it's it's really about building
Like everything into one and then one into everything and kind of just make a nice little circle. And so when we do that
the the point of
Aaron is more of it is really more of utility, but we're gonna have it themed right?
It's mean thing, but it is a utility token and it is designed to allow us to
Build features into the spot, right and I'm not looking for anybody to pay me to work on it. I'm doing this for free
And I hope that comes through there are licenses there are you know in Stephen knows that there's costs to running AI bots
There's costs to all these things. So if we want to use these if we want to push it if we want to do things
I would rather build the tools and give our community these tools and then give you the option
Give us the option and I'll do as much as I can
Now we have something fun right in
Engaging and and while I may not sell a mean coin very well, I'm probably not the person or community
I'm probably not that person. I
do understand
How to generate
I'd say utility probably more than more than getting people inspired to buy a token
I kind of left that we do have another individual who's actually going to help us not market it but and improve
our community presence so that'll probably come out in a couple days, but really for me right now, it's about
Showing people we built the utility first we built the purpose of the bot first
The token is to be fun and it's for people to engage in the community. It's for the bot
It's for running contests and the contests are actually very popular on other chains
And it's kind of mirrored after that and honestly, I wouldn't have launched a token. I
I think the only token I might have considered with Kish
My concern is I don't want to put a token out there for our community and then somebody rugs it
Like that was like a deathly concern of mine and why I've always avoided them
So I I went out and I properly registered. I've got a company. I've got everything
built as you would as a professional entity would and
That's how I treat everything and so for me it really is important that these things are not only successful
but the success is measured in
You know did the community enjoy it didn't hit that mark and I I believe time will tell on that one
but that's that's kind of like
The 10,000 foot level of it started with a bot the token was a secondary feature
But I think it's an important one because we have to have some mechanism
Honestly generate movement right on chain. We need transactions that do something. We don't need to
Put money into you know a mixer and see it spit out a different value, right?
We need to see here's something you can actually spend it on. Here's why you do it. You're on here. Anyways
Let's give you something fun to do
So that's that's really gonna be the biggest thing and then the projects on the bottom
I think Ron you've probably seen that a couple times now
The project has really any project on Cadena. I don't care if they're like a direct competition to what we do
I've never ever shied away from that
Every project on here. I want to be able to hook in and so like Steven for you
I there's a couple things that I thought of I mean we can even mint from there
With Wallace and stuff like I may be able to help you on that if anybody's having an issue
Because I I can hook into there now
So it's we can do stuff like that where we can help other projects quickly
Because I have the mechanism in place to quickly spin something up and functions and Adam and when you go in there
You can get everything from one place and it's simple
It's a click of a button and I like those kind of tools. And so that to me is gonna be
If nothing else, I'll be happy when that's all done and working and I think as
It stands there are eight projects in there right now that do something
And then I did put swarms in there for you as a test. So if you actually have
If you're a member of the Kingsdale, you can actually view it and vote on proposals right from telegram right from the bot
It all works. It's all connected every test of it. I tested it with a test out
But it's that kind of stuff in that and people are giving me ideas and people are giving me
Hey, can you add this? Can you add this and my answer is yes, just give me a little bit of time
And usually it takes me a day or two
These aren't simple things and I don't want to make mistakes and I do have to read people's contracts
But I'm not asking any of the devs to do anything outside of what they're comfortable with
I'll take care of the heavy lifting
So as long as as long as there's been reason I'm happy to hook those up
And I think at the end of the day
What you'll see is you'll have one place where you can go and do a lot of things and if you want to go deeper
Here's a link to their website go, you know, go connect there. So that's that to me is the part that's important
the fun part that will probably be what everybody cares about is
Contests and what's the token doing and all those things. I know all that's important. My focus is on giving people something for
You know for those tokens and so that's that's kind of gonna be my draw
And I think that hopefully aligns with everything that I like to work on
Have something first
Then do it. I didn't want to click on a token and then say oh in six months. We'll have utility
That would have been a no-go for me
So that's that's kind of a story and I'm happy to take any any questions or anything
I feel like I'm rambling but that's it's gonna be fun
I'm so like that you are you are rambling a little bit of me or you sound like a dev and I don't lie
Yeah, I mean you're you're absolutely correct. You are absolutely correct. Somebody with like
Dusto needs to come on here and be like, oh my god. Yeah
It's gonna work and it's gonna work good and I hope people have fun with it and that's
That's all I care about. Hey action
Who's whose action? I'm Tempe. Oh, hey Tim. Well, hey, we had a we had a speaker up on stage
It was asking a question for Tempe and Tempe never came back. I'm sorry
I literally got a call halfway through and I couldn't hear it. So you couldn't even answer a question for Tempe, man. I
I'm a fraud. You're slacking. I am big-time. Well, what was the question?
Ron do you remember I don't
Know our fam. Yeah five am Dauber's dot star cuz you want to ask again if you can I
Believe it was about if Tempe was at like a recent event or something if they met with investors or met a VC or something
like that
So the last we didn't go to a conference and we met a lot of people nothing has been solidified
Officially that I am allowed to say but there are definitely multiple conversations going on
Personally what I can leak
From my end is that I do have people
With influence that are going to be pushing Tempe further
The the token launch is gonna happen in two weeks. So
There's definitely gonna be a big push from not only influencers
But like people respect the people in the space talking about Tempe Tempe is gonna be on some big stages
So the word of Tempe is gonna get out there
like for sure plus
This is a small space, right? I did leak this and some of the the smaller
You know a smaller group that I'm a part of but since this is family
Please keep an eye out on the nodes for Tempe if you can
Grab one when they go on sale next week
You are guaranteed not guarantee. I don't I can't say guaranteed because I'm on the Tempe account. You will earn
wonderful rewards
Can I get one of the free ones that you're inevitably gonna get oh
No, that's already locked on my account. I'm already mine. Sorry
So, can you drop when the mint is when when when next week it's gonna be next week
We're looking at the announcement will probably go out on Monday and then Wednesday will be open
Awesome. So everybody needs to go cut their notifications on for Tempe so that they can catch that
Yeah, it's gonna be a limited number of nodes as well
That's the other thing because here's the crazy thing like we are able
We're getting some really incredible indexing data with a small number of nodes
And we're gonna have these events. I think you might have seen them called apex events is being recorded. I'm an idiot
I don't know why I'm saying this out loud, but whatever
Apex events and yes apex events gonna be like, you know, the top of the network and all this sort of thing
That was my idea. I talked to Yurg and Gareth and I basically said here's the deal guys
Like I know how well we're doing with the nodes
I know how well we're doing what you know get capturing data and doing all this stuff
But how much can we actually do and the answer was I don't know we've never done real stress testing
I said, well, we need to make sure that we have a weak set aside where we let's reward miners
But let's expect everybody to be on for you to earn good rewards
You're gonna have to have your machine on running that node up and running and have it set up the right way
if you do that
You're gonna get a reward and what we're gonna be able to do at Tempe is really stress test and figure out how
Much we can do with the nodes on the network
So it's gonna be a two-way street like it's not just hey, we're gonna take from the miners
We're gonna use, you know, everything you'll possibly can for them machines. No, no, it's gonna be they're gonna
You know make sure they're on we're gonna test things out, but we're also gonna reward them nicely for being on
What the price is gonna be
It's the same price that it was before like
That's the thing like he telling like we're not moving the goal post don't stop moving the goal post
We're not gonna do that
Like we're gonna stick with the same price the price that we've given out before it's the price that we're gonna keep at
I think it's
675 I'm actually looking it up right now because they have access to the page in the back end
It's offline for people, but I do have the page in the back
But yeah that that's the idea. It's but it's between 600 and 700 for each node is what it is
But like I said, you're gonna be able to make
some hefty rewards
And you're gonna see my dumb face on YouTube videos going make X number of dollars in one week
But I can't say that quite yet
Hey Mary, can I ask you a question about heron you make
These bots here miss this is very cool. These bots you made so bots are really really really good for customer
Acquisitions, so if I gave you an API with Bitcoin price predictor, that's plus EV so, you know
That's how I make my money is I trade Bitcoin
But I use machine learning and AI for it
Could I give you an AI API that you can tap and then I pay you the token the heron token?
to push that bot and then is there a way for people to come on and and
Make little bets on Bitcoin off off this AI that I run like how would the payment rails work to use these bots?
So bots are like cool, but you need payment rails
So I could like give you sports betting API could give you crypto API
Like I run a AI on four coins right now and it's really really good. So how could I do that?
Can you can you talk a little bit about that?
like how come yeah, so
yeah, I think I mean and that's the
the beauty of it is we can
We can take what's there and unable to do more right?
and so either you have a custom one or you you know, you add it into the the main kind of
Functionality and then you know, you know if we're dealing with an API that makes it really easy. It's
Just like you would it's obfuscated from what the person doing a transaction can see right so it's it's fairly nice and and
protected from
Anybody using you know telegram or discord wherever the bots are?
And if you wanted to be able to cover costs for it, I have
Already have a contract but it's it's for
Currently is for KDA and then it'll obviously be for heron as well
um, the other thing I have is is stripe and I I
Don't think it's a problem to take others right if if if there's a payment in some other currency
I don't really care underlying means nothing to me
I I build these APIs so that I can replace parts at will and so once the bots there
it's very very easy for me to create an integration point so like I
Did a very complex one. Yeah. Yeah, let me explain like keep it like really simple. Let's explain it. So
The way that people do things in crypto and suck people into crypto is you have these big
Like, you know like unibot. Okay, this is what I'm thinking about you unibot now
You know bots worth hundreds of millions of dollars hundreds of dollars. We need that on Kadena
So what we do is we make a little bot
And then you you hook into my API. I'll give you the Bitcoin predictions. They're very good
and then you take that and then you allow people to
Bring up the prediction using the coin heron and then we get a cut or something like that
And then what would happen is that you push those little things on Twitter
You have a link on Twitter from telegram or telegram that says I made blah blah blah from going long
Okay, you know like the 10x I made 10x on coo coin going long or something like that
But my question is is I want to restrict that to KDA only why if I restrict that to KDA only
And there is an AI bot that's making people money and people are having a lot of fun because they're using
AI to bet on Bitcoin and winning
So you go ask Jeremiah. I win all the time at doing that. It's how I make my money
That could make something very cool for Kadena where it's like
Oh, you know making Kadena fun is something that I'm talking about a lot lately
And it's really really fun when you're making money trading. That's the thing
Like on you know, like on Inge they do that all the time
so could we restrict telegram to only take KDA and then when people see people making like
Stupid money on KDA like 10x like bangers and all that stuff
Then it might force people to put a little buying pressure on KDA through heron that that would be my use case
What do you think? I?
Think that's something we should talk about I'm curious about
What we would need to do
Not not vaguely speaking but
To make sure that's all good
But as far as like the feature and functionality of it that it doesn't even sound that difficult
I think the biggest thing for me would be to understand
the the process how it's working today for you and what you want that experience to look like because to me it just sounds like
It sounds like something I have a similar kind of setup for something completely different
And it's not for bedding it is for predictions though like predict, you know, is it a winner is that?
That that is what I'm that is part of what I'm referring to runs. Yes
Which I am going to be releasing very soon, which I wanted to be in telegram. So
It yes, even I think that that actually sounds like something that is worth pursuing in my opinion
And I don't think it's a difficult ask either. I've been locking it into that type of payment. It's that's not even a problem
Yeah, we just use Heron coin and then we like you're not there's nothing to leave it because you're just selling data
Okay, you get the data and if it wins that's that's how it gains inception
But if you walk it into kta causes kta by pressure
People see those little you know graphics on Twitter and stuff. I made blah blah blah
Also gives the AI narrative a little boost on Kadena because I think what
People really want is to use AI to trade I think that is a
Very good narrative and unibot prove that and it's going to a billion dollars. I'm pretty good. Anyways, I'll stop talking I
Mean you're just selling it. I mean you had me at hello. So I
I think that uh, yeah, I think you had me in like the first sentence, but
Usually, you know how it is if you start talking about bots and usually in
But I think there's there's there's probably actually a really good
There's probably a really good case to be made for something like that and why not on this chain, I think that's
We lack things to do and that's why things like Heron come up is we need more things to do
They can't just be all gimmicks, right? We need to have something. There's a fun thing to do. Here's a serious thing to do
Here's every everybody in crypto wants to make money. So here's a trading bot, you know, here's here's how you
Clever it. Here's what it's doing. Here's the success rate and I mean, why not?
To me that just seems like an absolute win and these are the things I can't do all by myself, right?
And we talked about this
No one person can do it all themselves, but people have good ideas and then there's those of us who can implement them
So I think it's a really I
Don't think it through it. It's a really good idea. Yeah, we will we absolutely will
Well, I don't know if anyone here is uh ever interaction the Solana ecosystem, but there's recently a big airdrop
Still claimable. It's a Jupiter airdrop. I've got one Solana from this and then today I was messing around
there's a website called D gen coin flip and
I flipped some of my Solana. I flipped one Solana to two and I think previously there was a Kadena coin flip project
I don't know what happened to them, but
It was a great experience. The DAP was awesome
And it made me think about that guessing game Amir because I know that like you pretty much already have something very similar built
And it's really cool what they do with that
Yeah, I want to add a leaderboard and everything and so we'll have it inside links. We'll have it in telegram
We'll have it in discord and there'll be a an easy web front end for it, too
So we'll do like we'll be able to like track progress and it's so simple and it's very cheap
You know to run and maintain so for me, it's like it to me
It's just an ultimate win and I do want that to be part of what we're working on right now
so it's like part of like the games that I've got that are gonna get added from marketplace, too, so
There's NFT games and now we can have token games to it. I think it's just adds some of the things we were missing
Well, I think we're all really excited for it
I mean we started talking about how the site looks awesome
I actually did get to play around to the bot a little bit earlier and I know that it's still really early
But I was amazed. I mean, I know that a lot of people complain about while it connects being a bitch
Normally on a on a website you pull it up and like it just shows you the copy paste
This guy Amir got his telegram bot sends you that QR code like with the code and like I don't know how he does it
But it seems really neat
Hey, I was having a hard time getting past the slice and the blocks like that shit's fun
Have you done? Oh, everybody said that everybody was saying that that that was fun thing. Oh, but it's cool as shit. Oh
Yeah, I played that too not know what you're talking about. Yeah
Yeah, um, it took me a while to figure it out cuz I'll do my laptop
I think it'd be easier on my phone with like the touch screen
I see that I had to like click it and like hold it to do the slice. Yeah
What's it say down down to the bottom of the Heron website we have it pinned up top
if you go all the way down to the bottom it says something like
Test your skills or train or something like that train. It's train. Yeah
There we go. You click that and you go into this little game or you chop blocks
It's almost kind of like a fruit ninja. Yeah, you I connected my wallet
So Amir do you have a I mean, I know you don't know yet possibly but do you have a train?
There's going to be the where we can actually get the coin
so so here it is a little bit interesting, so it's a little separate so I I
Love the by me function mentality of it. That's yeah, it's it's gonna be cool. And so actually, you know, I don't think
How do I say this so
Echo, right and I don't think that those guys
Get enough credit sometimes for some of the things they do but I think you know, I know the history
I know a lot about the history there, too
One of their one of the people who works in their project
I'm not gonna name him but he's been incredible and kind of helping me through a couple of things and
Doing some code review and he actually gave me a really good idea and I and if he's okay with it
I'll share I'll share when I when I announced some of this stuff
But we added some cool new features that just don't exist impact. And so he was able to
Give me a different
view of it so that I could prevent an issue once we start doing cross chain and then that kind of took us on another
Path of you know, some of these token contracts are very old
They need to be updated. And so, you know, I've talked about this before
We're gonna launch a token generator at some point and it's gonna be easy for people
but what we'll be able to do with her and to show how we can do that safely and
How we can control certain features in the community through the Dow which can be easily accessed through the bot
So we're really just trying to put all those pieces together
It's a lot and when it's gonna be out
I was waiting for the corporate entity to be finished and that was finished as of today
So Karen has its own official corporate structure. You guys can be loud
Has its own official corporate structure and it's it's it's not a joke, right?
It's it's funny and it's all that but I take all this stuff very seriously
So that was one of the other hurdles and then I've got a meeting tomorrow
Tomorrow morning to kind of finalize and make sure everybody's in agreement and then it's that will be my last barrier
So it is very soon is very very soon. I'm not gonna commit to any specific time
But the code is ready to go so that's not a that's not a barrier for us at this point
I'm very confident that that's ready to go Amir. I wanted to ask you were you aware that there was already a
Meme coin called here on here and Eno
That was talking about launching
Nice. I saw that you did see that. Okay. I was just wondering if you saw that after the fact
I don't know. Did they ever come back and say they were actually gonna do it. Um
Well, I apologize to the team if they actually are building something
But I know majority of the people in the telegram are pretty much like yeah, this is gonna be a rug
We don't want any part of this. So I mean, yeah, and that's why I didn't trust any of these projects to do the coin
For me, right because you know, that's the last thing I want to do. I'm not gonna build something that's gonna get it
It may not it may not make it but it's not gonna be because of that
That will not be the reason ever so
Well, I think we're all excited for it and
So is Heron gonna be the name of the bot too
I know right now it just has like a like it says like today and I while it connects it is
It's gonna be the hair about there's gonna be a kid and I bought two that does a little bit of different stuff
But that essentially is gonna just be
Basically, I'm gonna merge all the features I built for today and I into it
so you can get it all from one place and we can keep it running, you know, and that was a piece of
To get these things we have to figure out a way to fund them
And and a lot of people know that that's been a big concern of mine on our chain because of liquidity
But I think that this gives you something at least some benefit right to to spending money versus just asking for money
which I also did not want to do so that's
It will be it will be Heron themed that is for sure
Squeegee made some cool
Avatars and stickers that'll get used for it. So they'll probably be two or three bots, but they'll all be
themed and
People will be able to add this to to their own
Telegram, I think that that'll be kind of cool, too
That's all are you gonna try to so can you do all the same stuff in discord
Indeed Ron indeed
Which one do you prefer working with?
They both have they both have good things telegram
Is a lot easier to work with but it also has different challenges
Discord is a bear to work with but it allows you to do a lot more and and it'll allowing you to do a lot
More causes some problems, but I have found telegram to be infinitely easier to work with I got you
And and their bots are more protected in my opinion
So because they can't reach out to you first. Whereas in discord they can spam you all the way
That's the one thing I really really like
Yeah, I was I actually did a little bit of work with this stuff because I was setting up
Um a wizard arena bot for our announcement channel. And what I was trying to do was I found
This website. I think it was called make or something
And so they do like automated scheduling and automated tasks
They already have built and so they had one that was supposed to take discord announcements
And then the bot would just read discord and send it to telegram
But I guess discord had updated something like I guess in the past months before that where
You have to either tag someone or dm them for a bot to be able to read the message and then send it
and so it was a giant fail and
I I just I have a little bit of an idea of what you're talking about because I just know that
Telegram's a little bit more developer friendly
But anyway, the the bot father is really cool
So but I'm gonna I know it's we're past and i'm gonna go hang out with my kids and oh, of course
Appreciate you having me on here. Take care and we appreciate you being in here to answer some questions about it
Yeah, thanks. Thanks everyone
We're all looking forward to it
All right. See ya
All right, well amir's heading out
Have tempe gone now
Now we can uh
Actually do the thing
No, it was cool having them up here. We still got canada bet in the house
So I did have one. There's a lot of good. No, that was just a lot of good information. I was glad to have a good conversation
Oh, we have alfonso in can we get him talking? Yes, that's actually our next talking point. Absolutely it is
Damn steven's just reading our minds tonight. Yeah, he is does he have our list? Did you send him our talking points?
He has a bot that reads our shit
That must be what it is
Yeah, alfonso if you want to jump up here you can we'd rather talk about katie swap. I'll go ahead and pin this tweet
Um, and we'll go ahead and get chatting about it
Um, did you uh get a chance to pin anything up about?
The heron or the website?
Yeah up the up top. I have amir's tweet
I have the cana bet tweet and then the last one's kda thursday. Oh, I got you. I see it now. My bad
And then here we go. Here's katie swap now
Here we go
so for anyone who doesn't know, uh
katie swap and echo decks are the two
Swaps or decks as I know steven doesn't like that word, uh on kadana now katie swap has been kind of um
Um, not the most active in the past year and uh, they can speak for themselves
It's not like they disappeared or anything
But I guess they were just not as active now
It seems like they are back which is bullish news because they claim and I have been talking to some of the teams who?
Uh, they claim to be back and I guess better than ever building stuff and delivering on things
So it's exciting. Um, I personally use katie swap more than I use echo
Just because that's the chain that the wizards are on and i'm normally on chain one more than I am on chain two
Um, but i'm excited. I'm hoping they can bring some cool stuff like maybe some uh,
candle charts, uh, I think
They had a a roadmap for 2023
Which has a few things on it that they haven't that we haven't seen yet, but hoping that's uh
What they mean when they say they're building
Uh, I think limit orders is another one too limit orders is big because uh
Then you're kind of going from being less of just a simple swap
Then you can throw in limit orders actual, uh candlestick charts then it starts really feeling like it decks
Hey guys, what's up? What's up?
Yeah, you can hear me. Oh, uh, you caught me on my way to put out the trash. So i'm in the middle of the street right now
For the invite to to speak a little bit. Um, yeah, we have some
Cool stuff coming up on katie swap, but we are also waiting on kareina to approve a grant
yeah, we cannot talk a lot about all of this stuff that we're
currently thinking about but
Hopefully soon we we can. Um
It's looking good in terms of the approval. So
I think we'll get there and we can you know speak a little bit more about it
just to give you an overall
you know idea of
What we're aiming for we want to
Uh katie swap right now. It's not
It doesn't generate revenue, right? And I think one of the things we all love to build cool stuff
But it needs to be profitable. It needs to be sustainable
So we have this idea of
Turning it into a business and of course
Adding value to kds as a token as well
So that's kind of the the route we're going with
Maintaining some of the roadmap that we had for
For 2023 that never got done and adding some other stuff and one important thing is
compliance
Because I think a lot of taxes are going to suffer if they don't start looking at what's happening in the legal part of things
And so we are looking into mica and what we need to do to get compliant
But yeah, I cannot talk
uh a lot about this
Right now
Hopefully like next week we can
Hopefully, let's see. Can you can you answer one question for me?
I don't know ask me and i'll tell you
So is the grant for all of kd lab or is it just kd swap?
Just kd swap. Okay, cool. Well, that's that's that's exciting
Yeah, just kd swap, um, it's not a it's not a major rent, uh, just to kick things off and
To get to the point where we can actually generate revenue
Um, I think we came up with a very very nice way to do that and also
liquid providers to also
generate more from trading
There we go
So kind of fight the impairment loss
Well, that's a big one because there's not much incentive to provide liquidity on kadana right now
Yeah, true
There's not a lot of incentive to to provide liquidity anywhere to be honest in any deck
Um, it's always a gamble
Um against uh price action, right? Of course
so yeah, we we we want to
To kind of mitigate that a little bit
Be able to sustain
And keep building stuff there
So yeah, it's it's I think we have a pretty good
technical solution, but
Let's see
It will take a little bit of time to implement and not a lot. I I guess
Probably q2
Will be done
Um, yeah, and I hope I can talk a little bit more about it
Oh, yeah 100. We'd love to have back and you know
Uh us and kadana we all know about waiting and patience and and waiting on something
It's true
Well, yeah
Of course, we'd love to we love to hear back from you about that because I know we're all super excited about that
Absolutely. Absolutely
How do you guys feel about uh new kadana is this part of you guys kind of coming back and trying to pushing stuff up?
You know, is this?
Um, are you guys kind of being new kd swap so to speak?
No, man. I mean new kadana. Yeah
It's fun. It's fine. I mean
It's not nothing related to to coming back
Or to you know start developing again
It's more of a new direction for kd swap as well
so we had some internal internal decisions made and some
Roles within the within the the team as well
So it's kind of changing in that in that regards
And it's I mean, yeah new kadana cool. I hope kadana
delivers on the roadmap they they set out to do
And and so if they do
It will also help us all right all the projects building of course people will come in
So yeah, i'm excited about that for sure
Well awesome, yeah, i'm glad to hear that and uh, we're glad to have you here it's been uh, actually pretty cool, uh, kevin
Pretty much everyone that we talked about had a representative up here
We had steven here represent kana bet for that talking point. We had a mirror for harron
Now you got a fanzo up here for kd swap. We're pretty well represented tonight. Yeah, it is. I'm glad to see everybody here
Afonso you're welcome many stars tonight, man
If you want to come jump in and give an update to everybody. I mean, that's what we're all here for is to
Stay up to date on kadana and see what's the latest and greatest and you know, here's some alpha about what's coming
So we appreciate you, you know stopping by jumping in. No, thanks man. I'll be here as often as i can for sure
Awesome. Thank you
Well, hell yeah, we appreciate it
We got skellies in the house too
We got skellies in the house skellies another one of the projects that amir had added to his bot i was playing around with it earlier
You can go and connect your wallet and like see your skellies
Maybe he'll add a way you can claim your rewards. That'd be cool
Jimmy who has the skeleton king? I want to buy that who has that
I like the um
There's there's a one-of-one. It looks like uh mart and hemalone too getting electrocuted
And it shows a skeleton. That's I want that one really bad. Yeah
Uh, who else we got here a pretty decent crowd tonight cab looking good. Yeah, i'm liking it
Um, yeah, so I figured jimmy would get up here and give us like a fitness update
You know with his speed walking and stuff. So
Yeah, you get up here give us a little testament
Yeah what he's cooking like there's something on the grill somewhere or a smoker something he's cooking something good 100
When is he either? He's either smoking something
On the grill that is before someone takes out the wrong way
Or uh are working out. That's all he does. There we go. We got it. He couldn't he couldn't stand it
Speak of the devil. That's right. I'm at the grocery store
I haven't even begun to cook yet
Yeah, but you're prepping you're prepared. I am he's getting the meat. I got a nice pork belly for tomorrow. That's gonna go on
Oh, yeah, i'm gonna try to do crispy skin on it. So i'll make sure there's plenty of pictures
Enough that you can smell it from wherever you're at
Do they make like a scratch and sniff pfp
So we're gonna have to get a beer on that. I know he can he can coat it. So
I'll just i'll send him a bunch of smells. Yeah, we'll
Yeah, we'll get like a bot sniffer or something
That's funny. Give me a hot step for crying. So
People are looking at me like what is this guy talking about weirdo?
Yeah, but they're gonna like they're gonna leave your
They're gonna report you to the manager. They're gonna send me out of here. I just don't I just don't think come over and eat
It'll be all right. So
They're gonna get the vegan police on it, you know, that's okay bring them
Hey jimmy, what part you may have said this before what part of the country i'm in i'm around tyler texas i'm like east texas
Okay, because I was thinking somewhere like that or tennessee the way you i was in new mexico for a long time to be honest
I love some some green chili. So I think i'm gonna be the only texan to grow green chili
i'm gonna give it a shot this year, so
That's sweet. I actually like new mexico, you know, I lived there for 20 years and it wasn't bad
So I just couldn't I couldn't send my my kids to school there. So
But it's all right
Yeah. Yep
I've got some friends. I've got some friends that live outside of albacurkey. Oh, yeah
They're they're actually teach. Oh, no kidding school systems there. Oh my wife is a teacher and she taught in the school systems there
So she was my my inside
Yeah, and we both had discussed it and her wife was a teacher there and we're like
It just got to the point where we couldn't do it. It just wasn't feasible
And like I said, well you went to the doll
No, you went you moved to a great place. I love it
So, you know what? Honestly, it's easier to lose weight out here because there's not so many tortillas
I was i'm a sucker for enchiladas, especially green chili enchilada
Good stuff. Jimmy. Jimmy. What what's texas's opinion on chili?
I think it's crazy. You guys don't use beans and I want to know why texans think this is correct. Okay, so
Not being a texan
I put beans in my chili. I do i'm guilty. So they'll say I don't make real chili
But it's just a texas thing everything is meat if you're throwing beans in there
It's a filler that that's like cheating to them
And that's what I get out of it
They literally think you're a cheater if you're putting beans in there
They have essential nutrients and health benefits. Hey, you're telling me like I said, I i'm from the land of green chili and beans. So
It was it's kind of a shocker. You cannot take beans to a chili cook-off here. It's a bad deal
So now you want to make a pot of beans, that's fine, but don't call it chili
So respect respect but but between you and me I put my I put beans in my chili. So
I'm considered on the outside still i'm working my way in though. I'm gonna i'm gonna change them all. Just wait. That's my goal
Kevin where are you from again? You're from georgia
I'm originally mississippi. I live in alabama
And what do alabamans do for chili?
They put beans in it
That's civilized. I think everywhere puts beans in it. It's normal. I mean it's normal
Yeah, I mean that's for living in the south. I mean it's not we do but I mean we have the most fattening shit in the
World that's why everybody here is overweight, right? Everything is fried
Everything's deep fried
I don't know
Especially when you start doing some, uh boudin, you know
I lived in louisiana for a while was kind of
That's every main mingled in some boudin
Actually, it's actually really damn good. It is
But they use like a partial rice filling though
Yeah, they do
I'm telling you just get on that meat train
The meat diet it's not that bad. You get plenty of nutrients
I'll convince you to invest in your health every time I have an opportunity to do it. So
I'll tell you how mine is mine consists of deer meat
Nothing wrong with that. I love a good see this is why we're friends
right, you need to come down and hang out and
Do you season I got 32 acres I have stands set up you guys just need to come out
We don't don't don't tell me I'm telling you do not
We could call it the kda farm
It'd be a nice little hunting resort for all of us and then cook out. That's actually one of my dreams
Well, we hit crypto rich. I actually want to create a farm. I just need
like the bucks
From texas. I need to sperm shots to shoot to like load up the doves
Yes, that's what i'm saying
So or either i'll start a farm that does that man. You gotta think you get what is it about 10 grand a sperm shot?
Something like that. Yeah, I just need to breathe
I'm working on it next. I was gonna make the next yellow stone. It's gonna be a cadena ranch
That's that's what I want to do
About it my boys are actually like dad
We run it like we want to work on a ranch and i was like, yeah, okay. They think that but you know
They don't know what hard work is right? They don't know what 4 30 in the morning is
No, they don't look i'm gonna tell you something fun. My son started a new job and it actually
He has to clock in I think at 5 a.m
And yeah, he's up at 4 4 15 and he walks in the door every day like drinking
I was like, yeah, welcome to the real world
It's kicking his ass
It's pretty funny, but yeah, dude i'm about to do like
I would almost like I do go to the grocery store if I have to but most of the time
It's either going to be grounded
with sausage
deer steak tenderloin
That's my level
Yeah, i'm gonna start sounding like bubba gum for sure
There's nothing wrong with that zero
But know that you know when everything goes to crap like it's kind of doing right now
Texas is probably where i'll go
Landing in that space out here for everybody i'm plenty animals lots of water if you go to the right places so
Yeah, I just want to go out in the backyard or something and like
You know stick a pole in the ground or something a damn oil go to shooting out
That's what the miners are for
Well, that was you know, cadena hashing is in texas and that was one of my fears is like god dog eat is gonna be ferocious
Like I was hoping the miners could
sustain that
That's crazy what they did with that facility
They did so well prepping it and keeping up with the heat in the summer
All those exhaust fans and having full control of that facility. They've done a great job
Yeah, they really have I was impressed with what they've done with the with the farm but yep
I was worried there for a bit. I was worried because I know it's hot here and I have a buddy that was from like houston
God dang. I mean it's like you go outside and shit. You meet satan and go back in the house
But no they they've done a really good job with the ventilation system, yep
But tank I got a question for you tank
What part of america are you from because I look at your king and it's very pro-american. I'm just wondering where you're from
You down by the sandy beach say again
Florida hank is the florida man. Yeah, he's great state great state. Yeah
I love the king by the way. I love the crowd. It's great. Great one
It was a fun process seeing hank go through all the variations of the of the kings he made
There was an eagle made out of bullets one time. That was great
Yep, a bunch of crazy stuff like that thrown made of bald eagles
Freakin m16s everywhere. Yes, it's sick. I can't wait to get mine
Yeah, have an awesome wizard one that uh, i'm looking forward to getting
Kevin does your partner ever come on these chance?
You're talking about my brother spider. Yeah
Yeah, my brother. Yeah, he's your brother too. Okay. Yeah
He does he's he's gotten on a few he started a new job
Uh, he was contract for like 13 weeks and it's like
It's kind of kicking his ass. So
He's usually driving home. He didn't have much of a signal because it's in the country because he's kind of up in kentucky
Most of the time he don't have a signal while we're doing this
And then he usually walks in the door. I want to say he's probably walking in between 5 30 and six and
They immediately are trying to get kids ready and he's got three kids
So they're trying to get them ready and supper done. And so he'll jump on every now and he's just
high lately
We usually talk later at night and sometimes i'll call in like i'm usually up about 5 15 in the morning
And then sometimes i'll call in while he's driving into work and we'll talk a little bit then but
Yeah, we're trying to get him through this contract part so we can free him up a little bit more
Well, sounds like he's been busy i'd like to have him in here sometime I need to uh
I need to hit him up and try to get him on he's in one of those kind of situations
Like I said, we were you know, like the scheduling time is not great for everybody
And it's it's like with me it's harder to push it pull it back
It's just a timing issue, but like I said, he's got a few more weeks of that and i'm hoping I think he got on
The first or second when we were on he likes to get on
Yeah, we like hearing from him too. I remember he was on the one time that you were playing with your voice changer
Yeah, I almost hit that a minute ago and I decided not to because then I wouldn't remember how to get back on
How are you doing that is it like is it on your phone?
Yeah, like if you hit the uh, the little wide
Oh voice effects
Yeah, you can go from soundboard to voice and
Wow, I totally screwed that one up
And then I couldn't figure out how to get back and then I think that was action was making fun of me
That was all me
But usually I'll get off
Really yeah, I'll flush it
What the fuck
Yeah, so steven i'm from florida i'm uh, prior military iraq veteran
So, yeah, hello gung-ho action all on me
It's part of florida. I got some family in um
Up by orlando
Oh, so i'm in uh, penelos county. I'm actually like right next to ron wolf's brother, I believe
And then it's kind of funny. There's another crypto project guy. It's like five miles from me. I just found out the other day
Small world. Yeah, it is
Yeah, all the sports bettors go to florida
Like all of them now live in florida because uh, no tax
What is it the online casino?
Betting just uh got released in florida, too
I believe
Yeah, I think so. Yeah
Dezantis he's he's he's he's
Maybe he's a gambler dezantis. Maybe he's uh, no that he's lost. He'll just be a casino man after
Who knows
Yeah, the only thing we had to go to end up
I think it was orlando. We had to go a few weeks ago because my son was wrestling in a tournament
And uh, it's called the knockout the christmas knockout in orlando
dude, I mean I
I like not really having to go through tolls
You know, they just take everybody bags and two weeks after your home they send you a bail for every damn
Toll you went through and you're like damn
Yeah, man
They do uh toll by plate. So you got to be careful what toll roads you take into stuff too because those really am are yeah
I mean it like it wasn't
It didn't kill the bank. I mean, I think it was totally eight bucks, but still
But I mean some of those toll roads were so worth it though
And I imagine if you live there you can also either learn like how to avoid all of them when you
You know because it's set up for like the tourists. Hell, we're dumbasses. Like we don't know
We don't know all I know is you know
I plugged in a grass to my gps or whatever and like and it's just telling me go here
So oh, but they're just they're just gonna follow the leader like everybody else, right?
Yeah, when you're a true local you just you know, pull up the map and you hit all the back roads and then you're scott-free
interesting is is
I don't I live just off of I-65
A little south of birmingham which is a major thoroughfare to the beach
On fridays and saturday's and going south. It's bumper to bumper for hours
And then going north on sunday. It's bumper to bumper for hours. And so
Here we take all the back roads. We don't get on the interstate. We don't go by the interstates because it's like I said
It's a parking lot
For the phones out and they're detouring
And so they're trying to figure out how to avoid the interstates and then they gridlock all about
Then you know if i'm out cutting grass and i've got my trailer hooked up
I'm like sitting, you know, i'm sitting at an intersection for freaking 30 minutes trying to get through
Because everybody's trying to go to the beach and they got their down to the roof
So we we cuss them about as bad as y'all cuss us over down there
I was doing some traffic earlier and I was ready to run my car into someone's rear end. I was getting pissed off
Dude, I hate it. I'm i'm just but i'm not a patient person and stuff like that like
Like I can be patient
I'm a patient person like if you need out i'll stop and let you out but
Like people playing on their phone or paying attention and like you missed the red light
Or they missed the green light because they weren't paying attention like dude. I'll lose my shoes
It's just it's I mean i'm sure it's everyone else but it's one of those things that pisses me off a lot because I swear
Nobody knows how to drive with me
That's right i'm the same way nobody can drive with me
Get the hell out of here
Yeah, y'all look that's that brian in the trunk
Oh shit what you got ron you want to talk about something else anything
We've talked about those talking points I was really hoping a couple of other people would show up
Ron you're gonna do a uh a wizard's update
I've fallen and I can't get up run
Nobody's home
He was talking about it a little bit
Oh, there he is he's back what happened. Well, they were asking for an update for wizard's
I have no idea what just happened. I was there was some sound coming from my phone
And like it was just like I don't even know how to explain it
Um, anyway, what did I miss?
You want to give us a wizard's update, you know, we got lario pushed out a new update recently
Of course, let me go ahead and get that pinned up here
And also, uh after I talk about that kevin
I want you to tell us where we're at with the uh with the whole burn and upgrade thing
Yeah, we need a sgk update too, you know, of course one one
All right, absolutely
Here's the tweet right here
All right. So I believe it was yesterday. We released a new update. It's up at the top of the space now
Um, you can buy what's called a magical aura for your wizards in the magic shop
Now how this will work is it is an art upgrade?
And so it'll take your wizard from just being a still picture to being animated
You'll have a nice colored aura that matches your spell or your element, uh in the background
And uh here in a few weeks
we'll have the ability to upgrade the defense of your aura and so this comes at a good time because
We had pushed an update called spell upgrades where you could upgrade the attacking damage of a spell
But this kind of left defense in the dark
So now you can buy these auras and upgrade the defense on them. It should balance out the game a good bit
Um, i'm really excited for it and I think it makes the art looks just so much cooler and bring it to life a little bit
Oh, I can't wait to put them to use
100 percent. No, it'll be really interesting. Uh, we because we're probably going to level 400 level caps in
Uh right now it's level 375 is the highest and strongest your wizard can be we'll be going to 400 soon
So it'll be interesting to see how people build with that 400 also
You'll have i'm not sure what the cap will be for defense on these auras
But they're on the auras and plus an increased level it'll be interesting to see how people build with that and what kind of wizards
they make
I know hank i'm
Personally going to watch what you do with your swamp gator and uh, see how you use that defense if you use all defense
Or if you retrain it then to like attacking damage
Hmm I might do that with graboid
There you go. Graboid will probably be a hybrid
And that's actually what I did with him today
But he'll just be more of a hybrid
I believe hybrids might be coming back now with this uh with the defense boost
Where's the speed on top of it?
I noticed that
You stopped using defense and started using speed a few weeks ago. What was that steven?
What other auras do you get? Can you get speed aura? Can you get uh, you know
No, it's just text aura or anything the auras you'll only be able to upgrade defense
Well, you should have different auras for strategies, what do you think like a paladin's auras almost
Well, the thing is is that um
Defense needed some love a little bit of it just because things have been out of balance and so
I guess if we were to add in
You know the ability to upgrade the attack or damage of aura then it would just make it more
Out of balance. So and it's kind of we were gonna call them shields and then we changed the name to auras
Because that's how it looks but that's that's pretty much the point of it. It's like a shield
Yeah, also
A little tomorrow if you have any level 295 wizards or not. Wait, hold on. We have the farmer's tournament tomorrow
Not apprentice right hank. No, it's apprentice. Tomorrow's apprentice. I got now i'm getting getting my days backwards
Apprentice tournament tomorrow if you have level 295 wizards get them subbed
Uh always a great opportunity to win some wizah if you get a win
That's a instant like 14 x of your buy-in. So don't sleep on that. I'm talking to you ron wolf
Make sure you subscribe that crow
Uh, and that that's about it. So yeah guys click the um pens tweet up top. Give us a follow check us out
you know, we're always open to bringing in new members showing you around we have a lot of fun and uh
You know, we're just here hanging out on cadena all the time. So, you know, check us out
Uh, yeah, that's all I got. So kevin go ahead
No, that's good, man. I was curious. Have you heard anything back from your grant?
It's uh, not submitted yet. We're in the final like final steps of like making sure that the
Application is like uh up to par and whatnot and there's a
A couple of revisions. We still need to make to it because we had uh
Curtis or curator. He was up here earlier. We had him put the put it together for us
We're doing some revisions to that now and then it'll be submitted
So we're looking good there
Yeah, I hope that works out
So I think you may have talked about this before have you guys applied for a grant before?
Yeah, that's a sore subject for us, but okay. Okay. Okay. Okay
I thought that was the answer but I was just making sure
um, yeah, well, I mean when you
Do what I mean that's a sore subject for what three quarters of kadana project
Three quarters to probably 90 percent
I don't know. I mean most of the time when you apply for the grant, you know, if you kind of get approved or whatever
Usually they'll give you the money with milestones and then you have to hit the milestones and
for our situation we we we made the uh
We set it up
And like you hit the revisions some things they asked for we submitted it
We we we had google meetings with them
Everything was good that we did
They came back and set another set of milestones
There would be money. It was another set of milestones
So we went out and hit all those milestones and then resubmitted it and we had another zoom meeting with them and
That was several months ago and they kind of ghosted us so we don't
I don't know. We've hit them out milestones twice and still haven't gotten anything. So we just decided to move on without them
I mean, we're just gonna do what we can
Well, i'm hoping it goes well for us and same for a funds
I know they said they were going through that process too and i've heard some
uh horror stories of of that, I know that uh, steven has a little bit of uh,
Personal history with that subject as well
Yeah, he had some conversations about it too. So he yeah, he knows our pain. We know his pain and
Uh, and like I said, I mean our situation may be a little bit different from yours
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Go ahead. Did you know that cadena bet never applied for a grant?
Where does that come from?
Like that that never happened. We just uh wanted them to
What what cadena bet had was we had a vc who was willing to
It was called bitcraft. It's big vc in england
And they were going to put in a bunch of money with us and we had the uh vp of pinnacle the largest sports betting company
On the earth as as one of our partners and tyler got on with us
Did one meeting with us said we were awesome and then francesca said nope, we cannot support you
And then we're like we never asked for any money
We just wanted you to put us on the official app list
So, uh, that's actually a myth cadena bet never asked for any money from cadena never wanted it
Well, I wasn't I wasn't saying that you had applied for it
But I knew you uh had a little bit of a story about that whole thing and at least how uh,
Yeah, francesco blew us out of five million dollars. Yeah, there you go. Yeah, there you go
Yeah, and that's it. So I just want to make that clear because it's a big fight
Of course, yeah
No, we I wouldn't refer to you trying to apply for grant either. We just knew you had obstacles with the team as a loot bust
So yeah, it's because cadena has had no uh, no business apparatus at all
like it's just tyler and then
He would like put us through a whole bunch of stuff and then just to like get reckoned because we just wanted to be
Officially because it vc won't give you money unless the blockchain backs you you understand what I mean by that right?
Like they have to publicly back you otherwise it's like, you know, are you can you even are you even friends with cadena?
So cadena doesn't like talk to anyone now
They do but two years ago didn't talk to anyone
And so it was just like this guy francesco and what tyler said to me i'll tell you the inside
I never told anyone this but what he said to us was
uh, and the other guy, uh
His name starts with a j. I I don't even know his name, but these two guys and dan wiggen
They don't make any decisions at all zero. It's just francesco
Who did and then I don't even think he made decisions. It's just stew
Okay, and they don't like sports betting, but they never made that clear. So I spent like a quarter million dollars on
Assembling like the god team
Like literally the god team of gambling
And it just look up jesse leer month
Um and james mclaughlin and joey fortuna and then I lost all those relationships because they blew us out of the water
And what ghosted us and wouldn't talk to us. So the team members all ditched because they're like, ah cadena will never accept you
So I just spent quarter million dollars of my own money. Maybe maybe that's why I went a little dark
Sorry, sorry gens if I flooded cadena, but that's the truth
Okay, well part of your guys's reason for coming back is that francesco had left. So
Are you guys applying for a grant now? Do you have plans to
Okay, grants need to go to companies that need them and we can fund ourselves. So
Well, my my big wish is that wizards gets a million dollars because elario is the hardest worker
No offense. Kevin no offense, but I think elario not taken
You guys work really really hard too. But for me elario like sacrifices
A lot and has built this great
Company like ron you're a great company. You have a token that works. It's up. Everyone made money. Everyone uses it
So why don't they just give you a million bucks and i've told mike that why don't you give him a million bucks?
And then he's just like, uh, uh
So I think they should do that and that's where the grant money needs to go because a game studio on cadena
Is a big thing. And so
That's what i was gonna say then that's whenever wiz labs or uh, you know wiz gaming studios is born
That'd be so awesome i'm just really hoping it happens and uh, well, I think with us
I think we didn't really I didn't personally as much care about the grant. Uh
My brother was more pushing for that. So he did a lot more of the work as far as pushing for the grant. I didn't
Uh some money to help fund us would have been nice
We could have built quicker and faster
But we're in the same boat like we don't have to have their money. I mean we can make it without them
It's just a slower process
You've got to get more sales and then use that money and the price of kta goes up
We have more money to build up us
So, you know, it it slows us down. We could we could probably already have a game bill playing had they have given some money
But they did so it takes us way more time
So now we're kind of it's a clock thing for us is we've got to get the funds to get the game finished out
And we do have it put back. We're just kind of going slow waiting on the price
But we don't want to be
Completing the game in 2025
You know, we don't want to be trying to get it going in the you know, maybe five
I'm just saying, you know, it's gonna take us a little bit longer
without their help
I find not having their help too. So
Well, i'll talk to a funzo it's a waiting game and we'll see how everything plays out and you know, um
Best of luck best wishes to all of us too. I'm hoping that you know
and i'm confident too that you know, we'll all succeed in the end and that
uh, i've been thankful to see how this new cadena company culture has shifted a little bit and you know
From personal experience no one from the team ever even tried to talk to us for like over a year
And i've said this before and here lately
It's like we've been kind of a bit more in the spotlight. So i'm hoping that that's recognized
and you know, it'd also be nice if
I don't know what the whole process is now, but
Um, i'm hoping that mike is part of it because I know that mike
He sees the picture, you know
Well, most of our meetings with brian rhino and
Hadn't had really gone anywhere and i've kind of
questioned a few times
i've sent him
Several requests dms to come join this space and he doesn't ever come in
But most of it like I don't I don't know and you guys may know is he full-time cadena?
Or is he just kind of part-time?
I don't know and i'm not sure if we have the best relationship because i'm always bothering him about shit that he does
I always tell him change your profile picture. I was the one that got him to change it from that
I think ethereum and ft he was using
And a lot of he's in a lot of ama spaces when i'm scrolling around he's in a lot of spaces
But he never comes to cadena spaces
Yeah, i'll see him in like a bitcoin space while we're alive doing our thing over here
It's kind of like a like a stab in the back
Ron can you share a little bit about the process?
Can you share are you under nda or can you share a little bit about?
Sort of the process and who you're talking to?
And uh, are those meetings nice are they they positive?
I just i'm curious on how their process works because nobody knows
I'm not under anything right now, but I can't really talk about it because nothing's happened like we
pretty much the way it's worked is
We contracted kurtis to write something up for us and
Once we actually submit it and like get the ball rolling then we'll have meetings and stuff. I have spoke with
a couple of people from the cadena team just like in some community hours and they
encouraged us to apply and ask a few questions and
Um, I talked to mike too, but it hasn't been any like formal meetings about it yet
uh, just because
we're just trying to make sure that everything seems right before we get the ball rolling and and um,
Submit it because
I don't know. I just want the grand after look good. It's like it's not necessarily a form that you fill out
It's like we're building like a slide deck type thing. I just want it to look like
most professional and the most informative and like kind of
I don't know. It's kind of like a resume. We're kind of fluff it up a little bit, you know
And he's and they use the kyc
They'll go through and want you to
Sign up for all the different, you know
social meeting sites create
Create stuff for yourself so they can go review it
Right and they'll also, you know
We know that you're going to put all the code on get on a github
So anybody can go use it or see it or look at it
So there's a there's like criteria is but like you said once once you submit everything
They'll review it and then if it's meets that standard
You'll do a zoom meeting
And then usually they'll go through and ask you a lot of questions the gameplay how it works, you know
they'll ask you a series of questions about what your project is doing and its objective and how it's sustainable and it's going to grow and
technically if that's good, then they
Pass it to the next team and then that team will do another
And so at that point there should be funds or you know, but that's just where it stops
We'll see how the process goes and i'll talk about it more something i was thinking about earlier is
There's a there's a thing in economics called the pickle problem
it's like a case study about
Uh, these food banks used to have a central planning board and the central planning board decided pretty much who needed
What what what food bank needed food and how much of it and it's a terrible process because
There's an economist named hyek that said at best that pretty much the free market
Is the best way to decide things because people act on prices that they don't want to buy something and they won't
And so they made like a whole like fake bidding thing
Where you don't actually bid money for the food
But you pretty much you're allotted a certain amount of credits each month and you know, if your food bank needs pickles
Then you bid on the pickles because that's how the market works. You decide that you want something so you
pay for it and so it's called the pickle problem because pretty much they were sending like
pounds and pounds of pickles to people who didn't need them a bunch of food banks just had a bunch of surplus of pickles because
There's a central planning board deciding what everybody needed
And so I know this sounds kind of weird that i brought this up now. Um, this guy around just talking about pickles, but
I was just wondering if there could be a better way to go through the whole process rather than just maybe a bd team in
some zoom meetings
Maybe there's a more decentralized way to do so or maybe a more efficient way
Oh, no, that's that that's something I was just thinking about
I've heard some people talk about maybe like leave it up to a dal to do it and like take votes because
I mean we do have evidence that there's been multiple projects who have gotten grant funds and then nothing came of them. So
It doesn't seem like too efficient of a process, but i'm not going to blab on too much about like too much economic stuff
We'll we'll just see how it goes is what i'll leave it at and um
Obviously, you know if i'm under nda then i'll share what I can share what I can but you know
I'm always willing to get up here and blab my mouth and tell you guys what's going on
Yeah, I feel like it'll be it'll be fine in the end, you know at the end of the road. It'll all work out. So
uh, I know we're getting close to kind of the end of the time frame, uh, because it's almost 6 30 so
I'll just give you a little i'll do a little short brief sgk update
And then if anybody has any questions i'll try to answer them and then after that if we want to wrap up we can
Sounds good. I need to eat some dinner. Yeah, I know we have
So we've been working hard on the background
uh working on the foundry
Uh, we've posted some pictures on discord of what it looks like. It's pretty cool. Um
I know everybody's kind of anxious about the burn
But we kind of got it now
Basically when you go in there
You can look at your burn. How many you own?
you can look at your burn how many you own or how many weapons you have and
you can select
select whichever you want
Once you select the weapon it auto selects, you know
If you have a matching one in your collection, it automatically selects it for you
So you don't have to search because i'm there some people have a lot
But anyway, once you select your weapon it'll auto generate the second one to match and then you can kind of go beside it and burn it
little grade it to a rare
We've kind of been waiting a little bit
We've probably waited a little bit long
Probably going to do the burn is going to be sunday february the 10th and not this coming sunday, but the next
process now of
Creating the the expo for it
We're we're probably gonna
I say probably right now. It's gonna be February the 10th. So
That's when all of it'll start and then everybody will be able to start burning and upgrading. Um, we've had some conversations in dinner
In in discord about it. It's probably going to be a 0.5 kda
Uh will be the price
That we've got set for right now. So will that be for each tier? So even if you're doing like two
Uh rares together to make an epic or whatever the name does what matter that's here
Well, I say that we have discussed increasingly at increasing it as it goes up
That is we're still debating like I said, we've had some conversations on
the cost of it
Do we leave it consistently the same or do we upgrade the price of the burn goes as it tears up?
That's what'll be put in the announcement, but I can't finalize any of that
right now
Well, i'm looking forward to it and um, because I have a bunch of duplicates. I'm ready to combine them. It's
Lot like how we've done forging with our equipment, you know
If you have like like a ring of speed plus two you can forge that up all the way up to like a plus eight
Combine them. I was I was actually asking Ahsoka the other day. I'm like, man. I did a
You know, I did a claim and I claimed
four of them
It was like two axes of fire
Two, you know
I don't even remember exactly what it was but it's like I got four and they were already they both were matches
And I said man, can this thing not be a little bit like
It was great for me because now two immediately ready to burn
I was like lord is can it not be a little bit
And they were like, well, it's just you know, it's it's there's like 32 000 weapons
So it you know, it takes some time to process and it picks it picks and picks like we can you know
One thing I wanted to tell you about if you scroll up over to that a mere tweet I think
Go to his page
He recently made a post about how he wanted to add a couple new projects to his bot. I was thinking that uh claiming
Like your uh, your weapons would be a pretty cool function to add into his bot
Yeah, that would be I was thinking about some things while he was discussing it about
What we can do
You know, yeah, we have we have talks and we dm on the side too and we discuss different things and he's looking at different options for us
again, so
We're we're in the process of starting
To do some of the back-end
Programming start by the weapons the characters and so there's a but when you have that many for us
It's something, you know, we have the main barbarian
Many weapons that's a lot of tied stuff together. So it takes some time
Of course and you know, we're all understanding of that but also looking forward to it and you know
I'll be the first one to ask you when so
Yeah, we're working on it we've just got the latest updated version of the game so we've had our
crypto spider buzz
And we've been playing it there's
You know some tweaks and things and some upgrades that we've still got to work out
So well that be on apple whenever it's finally done like have you guys just been doing like testing on android?
Yeah, it will be on
iOS and it's in and android. It's just it's easier to you know, you can download the file
yeah, of course, so
We and I didn't know that was the funny things because I didn't know what an android
when we decided to do it, I had to go buy an android phone and
You know learn how to use an android because I didn't know
Well, I just and I know androids are a lot more customizable when you can like plug it straight in the computer and look at
the files and stuff
Yeah, um, yeah
I didn't know this but
Gave me some test access to one of their releases and I didn't know that I guess if you have
Your app uploaded to the app store on ios
There's another app called test flight and it's just for testing apps that haven't came out yet
And so you can get people access to it through like the testing app before they can even let before it's like actually out
Interesting. I may check on that. Yeah
because I was
We were basically asking that the point we were asking there was no way to do it
It's pretty much like once you send it to ios
It has to be put on the app store to play. There is no testing like you can with android
Well, there's like one of their updates too. So it probably works better for that because
through the actual test flight app it was like
um, they had typed a message that was oh test wallet connects and um
Let the developers know how it works in discord. And so like it just let me download like a new links app
I had to test it around. Um
Did what they asked me to do and then got back to them and it was pretty cool how it worked
Yeah, that's interesting. Yeah a lot of that
That's all
Gonna allow their work
The game developers now are working on some of the weapons while we're doing some of the other updates and tweak
Uh, we're just we're basically especially with the forest map right now
I'm trying to get it ready to get more for baba so we can get some people playing it. Uh
But they're supposed to be working on the ios side as well
Trying to get that side ready to get so
Those are a little bit further out. We're still kind of, you know working on that part of it
We're hoping to get the the burn function going and let everybody start doing that while we're finishing up the other parts. So
Exciting is going to be a lot of fun. It's just right now. Like I said, it's uh, it's kind of a patience game
You got a lot of things on the horizon
There's a lot of things
We've got the games going. Uh, we've got other things in the background, you know, we've got
going and
uh, we had our coffee thing going and then
That kind of fell through it wasn't profitable for there. I think nor father was doing a lot of stuff and
That wasn't profitable and they decided to shut that part of the company down
So that kind of fell through so we're we're having to shift some other things around but we're still
You know, we're still busy building and growing and making
You know, we we've got our we've got our
Writing some stuff and we have some
Designers and writers making things for us that we're gonna launch out too. So there's a really cool
Side play going as well. So we're ready being excited to you know
So announce that when it comes time so much cool stuff coming
Hell yeah, then we're all looking forward to it
