Hello, hello, welcome. Welcome everybody
Trickle on end grab a seat in the arena
We have a pretty cool broadcast for you tonight
We got mr. Crypto Rick in the house
Can we do a quick mic check? Am I coming through? All right. Can you hear me? Okay?
Welcome. Welcome. Welcome to the stage. Welcome everybody
We're gonna dive into liquid share today and we're gonna talk about some some really cool stuff
I I don't know if you can get the official account to actually come in and bring them on stage as well
So people can can find it easy
If not, we'll we'll do some pen posts or something like that to make it easier for people to follow the official account as well
As usual we'll we'll start with a few introductions. We'll ease everyone into it
We're not going to dive like super deep into the tech or anything like that. We'll try to keep it super high level
So it's really easy to understand for everyone
What's what's being built here and what the team behind liquid share have in mind and also towards the second half?
Oh, there we go. We got the official account
Also in here, let me bring it up
Towards the second half. We'll we'll do a nice little q&a with with the community as well
So if you're listening in if you want to come up and ask a few questions or if you want something clarified
You're you're more than welcome to just request to come up and we'll try to get some
Some people up here on stage. Um, I don't oh I think rick
As the speaker i'm not sure if he's using um his phone
Yeah, I went I went on the other one
I like to share you said you you know what you said go on the uh, the liquid share one
So I jumped on the liquid share one. That's what I do. That's what I do. Awesome. Whatever you want i'll do
No, it looks better and it's easier for us to direct people, you know towards the the liquid share account and uh
Find all the socials the official website is liquid share site
It's really easy to find there's a lot of information there as well for people that want to follow us along
But before we get started crypto rec, you want to give us a small introduction about yourself your career trajectory?
Of how you decided to to create your nice youtube channel maybe and what ultimately led you to to be
Yeah, I I appreciate it, man. I i've been here since 2017. So I started in crypto
I would say mid-range not super early like some of those lucky guys, but not super late as well
i've been making youtube videos on my youtube channel for
Just as long seven years now since 2017
And i've been developing projects
I would say for the last five years for four to five years or so and really what it came down to
Is i'm a i'm a degenerate heart, but I am also somebody who's loved to build things. So
I started creating projects that people could jump into know they were safe, but it was also different than just some
Random meme coin out there. I always try to do it a little bit differently actually build some utility
Put some things into place that nobody else are doing and I do it with the face behind it
So this is actually a weird thing for me right now on twitter
Or x whatever you want to call it because my face isn't out there. So usually I do amas
On like telegram and other other platforms where I can put my face out there because I feel like
Seeing me is believing me and understanding that i'm not hiding i'm a i'm a legitimate
youtuber based in the usa who also likes to create projects and give people a safe place to
To do the things that they don't feel safe doing otherwise. So
That's that's really my entire my entire purpose in the space is I love I love the degen space
But at the same time there's too much
Scamming going on. So I want to bridge that with the real world and say, you know what?
Let's put some utility to some degen stuff and and really work together to uh
To take some of these things to where they should be instead of all these random cat coins going to a billion dollars
That's uh, that's good to hear, you know, and yeah for for anyone that's unfamiliar
Just look for crypto rick on youtube and you'll be able to find his videos. There's hundreds of them there
There's all sorts of them and uh, they're they're pretty cool. They still get like
thousands of views so pretty
Doing pretty all right over there. So what what's part of the idea of liquid share, you know, I know some people in the audience might
You know might resonate with being a degen and you know might not like the the meme coins going like all that high
With them not to discriminate too much here, you know, we've seen some some really cool meme coins do amazing stuff
But we also like utility projects. We like people that are being transparent and also that you should know that
They're adding something to to spaces now where people will be able to come to to go on camera for now
I think it's only available for
For apple users and if you're a host only but soon you will be able to do some spaces where people will be able to jump
On camera and do all sorts of shenanigans. But yeah
What what's part of this idea of liquid share how how did you decide you know what i'm gonna build this
Well a couple things there first of all
I think that was an invite
Uh is what I heard for when they allow me to go on camera
You're just going to go ahead and invite us back. So I appreciate that
Um, so thanks in advance for uh for that future invite
uh, but outside of outside of that what what it is really for liquid share is I
So to me i'm a crypto enthusiast right and what that means is decentralization
As well as adoption like that's it if you can do those two things
That is what crypto is designed for we have these decentralized exchanges that are not decentralized at all
The way you can understand it's not decentralized is because what happens when a project owner pulls liquidity
It's gone the project rugged and it's over and that's it that is the opposite
That's literally the opposite of with a decentralized exchange like uni swap or or pancake swap or any of the dexes
Were created for they were created for the the community
To be able to keep these projects going even if the devs got hit by a truck tomorrow
And so at liquid share that's the the utmost focus is
Decentralization so the lp tokens guess what everybody your scanners are not going to like it
They're not locked because they're going to the community the community owns the lp tokens
No one community member can rug it and to me that's what crypto
And decentralization is it's supposed to be owned by the masses and not the one
So with liquid share that's the ultimate goal is it's almost like a social experiment where i'm not in control
The community is so are is everybody going to pull their liquidity and rug it or is everybody going to push this thing?
And really do what we think we can do with it
It's that's a very interesting approach and um, I like it, you know, I like this
Decentralization philosophy that we're getting into a little bit, you know
Because it's interesting to just leave control up to the community now, um in the long run
How how do you think you'll be able to ensure that this level of of decentralization is maintained?
And it doesn't sort of consolidate in the hands of just a few people that are
More active or the ones that want to take control of it. Are there any mechanisms in place?
Do you have any plans on how you're going to go about it to keep it as decentralized as possible?
Yeah, number one is we're growing slow. So if if you notice that was at our core
So if you haven't jumped in our telegram do so and you'll see I have very methodically
Moved forward with with marketing. I did not want one or two snipers to come in here get a big old bag
Stake it and then take control of the project. So over the last two weeks or so
We've really been methodically growing it with a core group of people who understand the project who believe in in the vision
And word of mouth growing and growing and growing so at this point we're almost at the hundred holder mark
And to me that's that's perfect
If you can have a hundred legitimate people who truly believe in what you're doing will tell their friends will tell their families
That's that's what it takes
Like looking at at where we're where we are
That is is where I want to be is because the decentralization portion of this is all in
That it's I don't have control
They don't have control and no one sniper
Has control if I would have promoted this on my youtube channel or anything like that early on
Those guys would have been in here with their big old bags and secured those spots
In addition to that I did not put all of the lp tokens that I had
In the rewards right out of the gate. I wanted to make sure I had those tokens so I can
Make the aprs for staking
Aggressive but also realistic and sustainable as well. So while your scanners hate this project
There's a reason behind it. So that's that's really at our core
It's again. It's it's doing things different than what everybody else is. So
Yes, I do still have control over some of the lp
But that's by design so I can add that
Proportionately to as we're bringing holders and new users on so nobody gets full control over the project
I'm going to slowly trickle those lp tokens into staking rewards. So as we grow
More and more people get control making it more and more decentralized over time
I like it. I like it and we'll get into the rewards
We'll get into the staking and all of that. But since we started with the topic of decentralization
I'm wondering how how will that work? How much control will will holders have?
What kind of decisions will they be able to put forward? What's that process going to be looking like?
Do you guys just hang together in a vc and decide on it? Will you build up a platform for it?
What's sort of the vision for for people to to govern or what sort of government mechanism do you plan to have in place?
No, I I like that question a lot right because with decentralization becomes
Governance right that the group has to decide what moving forward looks like so
With that in in previous projects
I've actually utilized the token itself as a governance thing and and similar to a staking contract, right?
I mean you can make the front end look like whatever you want to make it look like and
You can brand it and market it any way you want
But all it is really is one token equals one vote and you can dictate
Some of the things that that happen with the project moving forward
it's super easy to do and it's something that I I really have uh implemented and believe in
For for a lot of the decisions making for uh moving forward
But let me just put a big but with an asterisk right there at the end of the day
It does fall on my shoulders
It does fall on the team shoulders to make sure that decisions
We're making are right for the long term of the project and not just the short term of specific holders
Who might have a larger stake, right? So we're very very aware of that as well
It's it's one of those things and again it comes back to to me
Non-world the anonymous world of these tokens is is almost
A a deterrent from the way I do things because this lp is not locked ladies and gentlemen, right?
It's just not because it's in a staking contract for the the holders. So your scanners hate that
There's there's taxes on it and the scanners hate that and you know
I haven't renounced it because things might change in six months where I want to update some things. So
That's where for me like I like the d gen world
It's almost a different view for them
but for those of us who have seen what a utility project is it's not rare for
Contract box to not love a utility project because of all those things so
That I mean moving forward there's going to be plenty of governance. There's going to be plenty of community involvement for it
That's at its core what we are
Um, so I actually have some more stuff coming here
Uh that i'm super excited to talk about that will help with with all of that and really give the community a chance to not just
You know speak their mind but earn some stuff while they do so it's uh, it's a pretty pretty fun time for us here at liquid share
It does sound it does sound like like fun and I agree with you
You know, you need to retain at least in the beginning you need to retain a certain degree of control
You know, you don't want your community voting to buy some weird stuff with the treasury money or anything like that, right?
You need to be able to direct the community in a certain direction, right?
and I love that we got into the topic of
unlocked lps and all this sort of stuff because
There's a section on your website that says it's a rug proof design
So, uh, I want us to dive a little bit deeper into the distribution of the lp tokens and maybe
Provide the audience here with with a few more details about the security against rug pools and how you're you're you're building this
Yeah, first of all the fact that I am a docs dev in this crazy world
Is usually enough all in of itself, right?
There's been docs devs that have still rug pulled and they just roll the dice and hope
The world doesn't come crashing down on them. That's not I got three kids. That's not my style
But at the end of the day what I wanted was it's not just rug proof because oh I burnt the tokens
What I really wanted was I I had this this thought in my head of
All of these projects out there you see it and especially in salona right now. It's community takeover if you're going to go on a
chart and you hit that little update button and the top and one of the options is community takeover because
The dev just gave up but the community likes the lp because it's burnt or locked and it's the good distribution
So they are going to take it over. That's so common. That's so common that dex tools created an option for it
case for decentralization
But it's not true decentralization because guess what whether it's locked or not or burnt or not
That lp is still not in control of the community in order to have control of something
You should have ownership of something
So with with what we're doing here is the community itself gets true ownership. It's not just
Little ownership. It's true ownership of the project
They get the lp tokens for staking the liquid shared tokens
It's the reverse side of farming. Usually you have to provide liquidity to earn tokens
Here you provide tokens to earn liquidity and surprise surprise
We have the flip sides that as well to kind of help you compound that but
In order to truly have a community-owned project
The community has to own the liquidity they have to own it
And if they don't own it, then it's not truly a community takeover a community driven project
It's just something that they saw with the zero tax and you know a burnt lp and all these things
There is no true ownership. It's just that it's rug proof
Which this is rug proof as well in a whole different spectrum because not one single person owns enough
To pull the rug out from under him and that at its core is what a decentralized exchange was always supposed to be
It never it never became that for some reason
But that's always what it was supposed to be it was supposed to be you believe in this project
You buy the token you provide the liquidity and now that project is stronger. That's always what it was supposed to be
That's why anybody can create a liquidity pair
That's why anybody can add to liquidity on any pair that they want on any decks that they want
But for some reason nobody has utilized it the way it was designed
And and I wanted to make a project that that really accentuated that and and took that to heart
Because at its core that is decentralization
I like it. I like the vision. I like where where you're going with this. I do agree with you, you know with
It's a great case for decentralization when you see this kind of things happening on solana with the community takeovers
But it's also a great case for degeneracy
Because these people are accepting that a developer could just step away from from a project like one two days or a week into it
And it's sort of like you said that they're not really owning the project
They are owning the tokens and all this sort of stuff and you can update some socials and do all this
All these things but it's not the same thing
So I wanted to ask a few more questions on the lp side
First off how how do you calculate rewards for people that are staking and then is there a minimum holding for people to stake?
Is there a lock-up period like what sort of like the small overview of the technical stuff for people that do want to get some tokens
Yeah, so technical side. So again
For better or worse. I believe that crypto is created for financial freedom
So with that in mind, there is no lock periods you should your money shouldn't in my opinion again
I'm I'm I'm passionate in my own right?
But in my opinion your money should never be locked up anywhere if you're going to consider that financial freedom
Freedom means freedom. It doesn't mean that you're locked up for nine months or twelve months
So there is no lock-up period with us and as far as rewards go it's proportionate, right? There's a proportionate number
Of rewards. So the the more you have staked that the higher your rewards will be
And we have a a very very unique and custom built
Staking slash farming contract that we utilize that will actually update every single day
With a new apy so it's a never-ending contract and and that's one of the biggest differences that we have versus
Pretty much every single staking or farming contract out there is they all end they all have an end date, right?
It's a 30-day pool or a 60-day pool or a 12-month pool and you get into it with that
Ours legitimately resets every 24 hours with a new apy
For that 24 hours based on the existing rewards. So it's a self
Sustaining platform in the sense that the token contract with volume will create
Lp tokens because the tax goes a lot to lp
Right. So that lp goes directly to the reward pool for the for the f the staking pool, right?
So it's a self-sustaining
Utility and again which creates more and more decentralization with every buy and sell
And there's not many projects out there that
Decentralization at its core with every single buy and sell and that's that's really what I wanted is the more we go out there and shield
This the more decentralized it becomes and and to me
I hope one day I have no control over it and i'm just sitting here on amas and preaching about it
Right because that to me is is the ultimate win in this space
I i'm i'm not I have not been shy
And on my youtube channel and any of the chats that i'm in decentralization and
All of that is at its forefront what I am passionate about so when I can create projects to help with that
Oh, man, that's that's that's right in my wheelhouse. That's what I that's what I live for
Yeah, it shows great conviction and great determination to be honest, you know
It's it's amazing to see people that actually, you know put their
Sweat into something like this and for everyone listening go to the official website liquid share
liquid share dot site and then there's a button in the menu that says dapp and you'll be able to see the daily aprs the
The the yearly aprs both for the token farming as well as for the lp farming
The token farming is around 180 percent right now and the lp farming is around 500
You also mentioned some uh some taxes. Are there any taxes for people that are
Adding tokens to the stake or are those taxes only for people trading?
How how do the tax how does the tax work and where does it get distributed?
Yeah for sure. So the taxes themselves is a couple different ways. So buying and selling on uniswap will will incur the tax
Okay, so you have to understand that that is a five percent tax
It's really a four percent, but everything rounds up on these uh, these scanners
So I just say five percent tax because that's what the scanners say
Um, but really what it is is it's three percent to lp one percent to dev and marketing
And then they give that extra percent because this you know math on the back side of that
So that all that all pretty much goes to
Lp and then yes, let's face it
Amas aren't free and marketing's not free. None of it is free
So there is a one percent of it that goes to the marketing
Side of the house in in all of that. So that tax now does not apply on transfers
So if you're going to stake your tokens and earn lp, there's no tax for staking your tokens
There's no tax for unstaking your tokens
The only time there's going to be a tax is if you're buying or selling in addition to now
This is key if you're adding or removing liquidity. So since pancake swap
Recognizes adding in liquid adding liquidity and removing liquidity as a buy in a sell
It does still have the tax if you're adding and removing liquidity
So just keep that in mind since you are earning lp tokens if you ever decided to
Not stake those tokens to earn more liquid share, but you wanted to remove the lp and tokens you have that ability
But that is subject to that five percent tax
Got it got it. Yeah, it sounds good. It sounds
A healthy amount, you know
I remember a time a couple years ago when people were doing crazy taxes on token and that didn't seem to bother anyone
So, you know, we're no stranger to token taxes here
We actually forgot to mention that the token is live on on Binance Smart Chain
Is there a particular reason why you chose the Binance Smart Chain?
Do you plan to go to different chains or was it because of the fees or uh, what was the the rationale behind that?
Yeah, 100% because of the fees. I mean that that was it would I have preferred to be on ETH?
Yes, but nobody would have utilized these staking and farming pools because the way we have it
Is it's it's a different staking pool. It utilizes more back end numbers since it's auto updating and never ending
So there is more math involved and and math equals gas if you're not sure how programming works on the EVM
Um, and then first I really wanted to launch if i'm being real
I really want to launch on Solana
Is the worst blockchain to develop anything on if you're not going to just make a meme coin and rug people tomorrow
Like Solana is the worst thing in the world. I love it as a DJ and I love it
I go I go ham on Solana, but to build on Solana is it's not we're just gonna go ahead and say it's not easy
So that's why nobody has anything of substance on Solana
It's it's all memes all day because it's it's simply like it's like a scam. It's like a scam token
Infrastructure it's it's created with no tax and no
Utility and none of that. There's just nothing of substance on Solana
Um, so then I started looking at the highest
Volume out of that right it's even Solana are the top two you can't build on Solana taxes too high underneath and then bsc
Destroys everybody else in volume outside of that. So
Uh, it was kind of a no-brainer and it was weird because my previous projects were on bsc and I was like, ah
It's bsc is horrible. You know, I I can't do it
So it felt really weird like I was in 2019 launching a token on bsc
But at the same time you cannot deny
Their volume you just you just can't deny their volume and their gas fees are reasonable
They're not the best but they're reasonable
So I took those things into consideration and said, you know what people understand how to get their funds to bsc
It's a familiar token. Is it the new and exciting chain? No, it's not but it has volume
It has comfort and it has the ability to really grow something on it
So that's why we chose it
Yeah, I have to agree with you on a lot of those points surrounding Solana, you know
But when you see the amount of liquidity that's being passed through that chain and the amount of people and you see things like
You know the google trends being overrun by people looking for Solana and trying to make sense of it
Then it's hard. It's hard to ignore now
Yeah, of course a lot of things there are not above board and a lot of people are just creating mean tokens and there's all sorts of
Yeah, don't look at the new pairs today whatever you do don't look at the new pairs today that's some weird shit
lot of shenanigans a lot of shenanigans going on over there and
Uh, I gotta give it to them, you know, they they've they made a cheap fast chain
You know and people are making money off of memes and I guess that's what people like
I think Solana is going to be the bsc of this cycle sort of how you were mentioning, you know 2018 2019
Before it was bsc where everybody was doing all these
Crazy meme fan tokens, whatever you want to call it and and people are going insane now
It's it's Solana's parents. So we can't really hate it. We can't really hate it
You know, we see some some interesting things coming out of there even
Even some funny memes, you know, i'll admit to that, you know, do I love the chain? I can't say I love it
But uh, anyway, I don't spend too much time, you know diving into Solana and their uh shortcomings
Um, I I wanted to also talk a little bit about your token allocation and sort of like your tokenomics
Do you have some some tokens that you've set aside for say, uh some more incentives for the community or maybe
Exchange listings or maybe incentivizing some more lp'ing or or anything like that. How how does the tokenomics look like?
Yeah, a hundred percent. So we we still have about
10 to 11 percent of our tokens, um in the deployer wallet again, your scanners don't like that
They just they just don't but this isn't your normal meme project, right?
So yes, we have 10 to 11 percent of tokens still so that's to add to uh, the the staking rewards as needed
also, we have a new utility coming out where it's going to be more of a um
Well, we're on spaces aka x aka twitter
So i'll say it here, but I can't say it on my youtube channel, but it's more of like a gambling thing
Um, so i'll have to call it gamefi on my youtube channel
Uh, but because I don't like gambling but here I can tell you like it's going to be
There's going to be this this pretty sweet game here coming out soon
Where you're going to be able to push a button and almost like a slot machine
You can win you can lose but even if you lose your loss goes directly to the lp of the project
Which increases the apy of the staking so nothing is truly lost
If you're a firm believer of the project, so i'm really really excited about that
But yes, we do have some lp tokens still we do have some actual tokens still
That are set aside to make sure we have something for cex is um
Everything i've said here today, you know, i'm not a fan of centralized exchanges, right? Let's go ahead and face it
I do understand the value in in getting on to at least one of them
It's a thing. We all hate it and love it at the same time
so there is a portion of that set aside, but but
Um, I have some good people in my circle being an influencer and whatnot. I have some good people where
We've been able to pay them
For the listing and then have them buy the tokens
With that those funds off of the the market to kind of juice up the uh, the market cap in in advance of the
Cex listing so this there's things like that in the in the background that can happen
But yes, yes, we do have some lp tokens
We do have some regular tokens and those are getting added to the staking rewards as needed
And also set aside for our next utility. So again, if you if you need
100 lack liquidity and 100
Trust in all these things. This might not be the right project for you
But if you understand that every once in a while
You have to actually trust that that the project is going to
Move in the right direction the dev is going to do what they say they're going to do
Then then maybe this is the right one for you
Right. I mean at the end of the day you can invest in any project
That's ever been created and still get rubbed in a weird way
We've all seen it some weird like proxy contract or weird l people that you didn't think could happen and all these different things
None of that shit matters. What matters is do you believe me in what i'm saying or not?
And and that's where where I like to differentiate myself from everybody else is i've been doing this for seven years my face on camera
Putting my my name out there putting my my face out there saying, you know what?
I want to give you guys a safe place to play
With that I I don't want it to be a meme
I want there to be some substance some sort of something being built behind it
And that's what I deliver each and every single time and that's all I can do. I can't promise you a hundred x
I'm not that guy. I'm not gonna be in the chat telling you buy now or cry later
That's not me. I'm not that guy what I am going to do is say i'm gonna go ahead and methodically try to grow this
Have my amas get out in front of people try to get true believers of this project and take to the next level
We're not moon boys. I'm not some guy trying to scam you for exit liquidity
So I mean that that all of itself
Yeah, I think I think a lot of people get security from the fact that they're developer their CEO their
Representative is someone that's a public person and someone that's been very vocal about the web free space. That's knowledgeable
That's sort of out there to drive everyone in the right direction. So it's much easier to get behind someone like that now
I I wouldn't say it's gambling because the way you've briefly explained it and this is me trying to get a little bit more
alpha here from you is either you incentivize the whole system to work better or you
Win something for trying basically, so I think it's more gamified than gambling if I get it, right
Yeah, that's core. That's really what it is, right there
There's not a loser if that makes sense, right?
It's kind of like cheesy to say but there's not a loser with it
Even if you push the button pay the fee and you quote unquote lost or didn't win enough to make profit
That money goes to the platform
Right that money goes to a buyback. It goes to that green candle
It grows it goes to the ability to chill and hype your bag. It goes to the LP
It goes to the staking rewards. So there's
There's so much behind it other than just you win or you lost
And again, it takes a true community
In my opinion to take any crypto. I don't care if you're talking to bitcoin ethereum, you know, ada
Xr whatever the hell it is, right xrps xrp army and they're what?
10 billion dollars right now like it's they still need their community
They still need their people that believe in what they're doing. Am I saying that we're tomorrow's xrp?
No, that's i'm again. I'm a realist. That's not what i'm saying
But what I am saying is we're a hundred and forty six thousand dollar market cap right now
So take a look around the space at these pieces of you know
What projects with these crazy devs who have no accountability at all that are at these higher market caps, right?
Whatever you fill in the blank of 1 million 5 million 10 million you guys fill in the blank
I'm not going to sit here and tell you the potential what I will tell you
Is that you have somebody who's not going to do a rug pull
If you don't believe that well go through my history right this isn't my first project i've never pulled a rug ever
And then in addition to that you have somebody that's going to build because that's what I love to do
And and when you can kind of combine those two things
It's a risk reward basis of like, okay, this is there some risk 100 percent
There's always risk any time you're buying into anything
Especially a cryptocurrency
That's that's my disclaimer in every video i make right there's always risk
But is there a higher reward?
That's up to you guys to look at what we have what we're building what you see and decide for yourself
I'm not going to sit here and tell you this is a no-brainer hundred x that's that's not my style
What I am going to do is tell you that I have this ama and another ama and more
More people that I know in the space that are bring me on and talk about the project and and just see right?
Because at the end of the day
This is as much your project as the community as it is
My project as the guy who happened to use a remix and create the project itself
I love that. I like it and speaking of community, you know, you've been live for um nearly two weeks now
I think you were launched on the eighth and ninth something like that
What's what sort of the the community feedback that you've been getting how how are people taking it?
What's the sentiment? Why are people coming up with suggestions? Is everybody excited for the new utilities?
What sort of the vibe in the community and also where can people hang out with you?
Are you mainly on telegram or are you on x more? Uh, where are you hanging out?
Well, I hang out on telegram, I guess that's old school now, right?
Like that's old school crypto right there is I do I hang out in telegram
So if you're in my liquid shared telegram, you know, that's your fastest way to get me right now
I'll see that before I'll see a dm
Um, so I I do have that and then what's been beautiful is we did have a private sale, right?
And it was a private sale of people that
Completely dump this chart because that's what happens with a lot of pre-sales and private sales. They get a good rate
They dump it at launch everybody's exit liquidity. So when you look at the chart, I mean we launched on what yeah
We launched on the eight and all the way up until the 15th
It was pretty much a straight shot up and then guess what happened the market crashed
We all know we saw what a huge dip in bitcoin ethereum and all that and it did it dipped down to
What was that? We'll say, you know
82 cents or so, but our launch price was just under 50 cents. It was like 48 cents
We've never been under our launch our launch price with the private sale
So, I mean that shows you right out of the gate that that everybody at its core is a believer in what we're doing
They believe in the product. They believe in the project
They believe in you know me and what i'm gonna go out there and do
If you look at the bounce, I mean that's as healthy of a bounce as you're gonna see
I have my four hour chart on right now and we bounced that 87 cents hard up to a dollar and you know
46 cents we're at right now. So, you know, we're
What 20 away from our all-time high and that's with bnb down
20 from where it was at that time
So, you know at the end of the day i'm i'm not upset about where we are looking at the bnb chart
Where we're really really close to to where we were at all-time high. So
It's it's a bunch of people that understand
Like where we're going with this what what this really can be and it's not some meme coins
So if you go to the chat, it's not flooded with like
gifts and these gifts and these like these
This random nonsense that you see in all these other projects and I really do pride myself on bringing something different
I don't know if that's the right thing to do anymore in this space because sometimes the stupidest thing
But I I truly believe if if I can deliver something real and something different
People will see it people will understand it and they might just hang out a little longer
Right. One of the things that really
Like makes me feel like i'm doing something right is when I launch a token
It doesn't dump overnight
And to me like that speaks volumes because if a launch happens today and I missed the actual launch and couldn't snipe it
I'm gonna wait till tomorrow because I know it's gonna dip
I know I know i'm gonna get a better entry than all those people that bought on launch day
and that is extremely rare with with something that that I bring to the market because
At its core people understand that they want something different and that's what i'm trying to bring them
Yeah, I was gonna say I didn't want to interrupt you but you're definitely doing it the right way to be honest, you know
Like uh, i'm sure i'm not bashing on any meme creators or anything like that
Some of them mentioned before are super funny. They're doing their thing
But we we need people that are trying to sort of
show others a right way and a proper way of doing it and
Trust is one of the most important things in in this ecosystem in this whole crypto web3 space
You need to have people that you can trust and when you have holders that you can trust when you have a community that you can
Trust and you can have a leader that you can trust then it's much easier to get behind
Um, i'll also i'll open up the floor for some community then
Community questions. So if guys if you're in the audience, you want to come up and ask something here
You're more than welcome to um, I also if you want to take a look at the chart, you know, we're not just
Speaking out of fantasy here. You can go to the official website once more liquidshare.site
And there's a link there for uh, the dex tools as well like next to the dapp and everything else
So you can check out the chart yourself. You can find the contract
You can find everything if you choose to to get involved there and
You heard it here, you know join the telegram first
See if see if you like it and get involved and then uh, perhaps jump on the chart as well
Now before before I open it up. I see I got some requests coming in
Uh, you briefly touched on on the marketing and briefly touched on it
There's a 1 tax that goes for marketing. You're obviously doing a lot of spaces
You have your your youtube channel and you're pushing out marketing strategically
What would you say are some of the more lucrative ways of doing marketing in this kind of market that we're in right now?
Where there's memes all over the place where there are people launching all sorts of
Weird tokens and all this other stuff. What would you say would be the more effective ways that you've managed to actually reach people?
Yeah, so that I mean that is in and of itself a trick question, right because I could easily
Market this for a pump and dump like I could make this one million dollar market cap in the next 24 hours
All I have to do is pay a couple of the callers
I know make a youtube video myself and all of a sudden this is one to two million
But guess what is going to be back down to 150 to 200 thousand tomorrow?
And a lot of people are going to lose money and that's not the way I want to do it
I want to do this a little bit differently. So my most effective marketing right now
Is simply this right here getting in front of people having this conversation and making sure people know what they're getting into
Very slow and methodical. I want people to come in and ask questions
So I can talk to them and and make sure they understand exactly what they're getting into and what the vision is
And really understand like your scanners and your bots and all that
None of that shit really matters at the end of the day
You don't do that for a real project you do that for those mean projects that you think might rug
That you think might be gone tomorrow
So if I can make people understand that this is something different
By coming out here and having these conversations by getting on camera by being in the telegram channel
By having those one-on-one conversations that to me is the most effective form of marketing today
Now is that the most effective form of marketing later on?
I guess once we've built that base, that'll be less and less important
But today it's all about finding these true believers that understand what we're doing
See the true vision and can hold on and ride this wave all the way to where we're going
I love that. I love that. And before I pass it to Venice here
You mentioned, you know a long-term vision and we've talked about a lot of things here, you know, we talked about the
Incentivization we talked about a decentralization about the community and the direction you're taking it
And I think it's a very healthy way of going about it. But what is the long-term vision?
Is it to simply create this project that you can safely pass to the community pass it to the holders?
Is it to build something on top of it? Is it to take it to different heights?
Do you plan on taking it even deeper into the gamified?
Ecosystem what sort of your plan in say like six months to a year from now?
I'll I'll tell you right now
I will never be okay with passing something to the community and expecting them
Is like a slap in the face
If you're going to take the initiative and spend the money and put the time into building something
I don't care how decentralized it is. You have some ownership to that. You need to take accountability and run with that
So yes, there will be more things that are coming down the pipe with this
Our next utility is actually something that any project
Will be able to utilize as well
Which will drive more incentives for the liquid shareholders. So if they have
Bsc memes guess what they still do there's lots of them, but they want to add some additional utility
Our platform will soon be able to help them provide that utility for their communities
So a little bit of alpha i'm not going to go too far into that because I don't like to give too much
Too much too fast until I can 100 announce it i'm like the opposite of a marketer
You know, they all promise shit and never deliver on the opposite
I just kind of deliver it and then everybody's like oh my god, we never knew that was coming
Uh, so that's kind of where we're going. But but yes 100
There's more coming in the game 5 space and also for these projects out there
That want utility but let's face it these devs don't dev what they do is they copy and paste code
And they put it into remakes and now they're the dev of a project
But if you ask them to build something they have no idea how to build it because they're not a true developer
And that's why most rugs happen
So if I can help those people
That are just launching a token and crossing their fingers and hoping for the best
Create a utility for that token. Maybe just maybe we can reduce the amount
That we're seeing in the space of rug pulls and scams and all of those things. So
Yes, there's a lot coming down
I I love it. I love it and it makes sense. You know, it is your baby
Of course, you want to keep it close to heart so I I can completely respect that
Venice welcome. Welcome on stage. Did you have a question here for for crypto rick or anything to add? I'll pass it over to you
Uh, yeah, actually, uh, thanks so much. I have been listening and uh, I must say that I really enjoyed the conversation
You're confident and straightforward
It's the right way sort of telling lies of big promises that you mentioned
Like the moon boys I said, okay
Here's a question, uh, like, uh, you emphasizes a true community on you say that
Liquid share emphasizes true community ownership through liquidity ownership. Uh, I think there's a
skepticism regarding whether this approach truly achieves
Decentralization because ownership of liquidity may not equate to full control as external factors and market dynamics
Can still influence project direction?
So, how do you ensure that your community truly holds significant influence over project decisions beyond
ownership of liquidity only
Dan Venice, I like that question that is a
Awesome question, you know, i've done a lot of amas for this project and for other projects and it's always the same cookie cutter
Questions and so I I really do appreciate that. So make a little note
Uh for him that that's a that's a thumbs up for a an amazing question
So that's a real question. So he's a real answer the the at its core
I want my people in my community to tell me what to do
In my previous project as well as this current project
There will be times where I need people to vote
And i'm not a guy that's going to go on telegram and create a poll
I want the people that are truly invested in a project that are truly believing in the project to be the ones voting so it's
and and it's I can say that because
We're developers at our core. It's very easy. I can create a
Contract where people can utilize their tokens and or lp tokens
Both of them will probably be what we use to to dictate what comes next
If there's something that i'm just not sure of right because there are those things where you're like, ah, man
This is a it's a large expense. Do we want to do this? Do we want to go on this centralized exchange?
Do we want to pay 10 bnb for this promotion or whatever it is?
contracts which are like staking contracts, but they're voting contracts to give true governance to our holders and lp holders to make sure the right people
Are the ones steering the ship and not just people and bots in telegram that can click the poll
That to me is how you will
For like for the future dictate what happens with this project is really giving it back to the people like that
Okay, that's uh, really impressive and detailed answer to my question I completely agree with you, okay, and then
Uh, I also want you to know that if you guys have any
plan or explore it once security may be such as formal motivation or any bug bounty to grants to enhance the
robustness of your smart contracts and ensure
They are resistant to both known and unknown vulnerabilities
If you go to our website and or our telegram one of the things in our faq that again
These scanners don't like and i'll i'm a very upfront and I understand that's probably holding us back a little bit
These scanners don't like that. My staking contracts and in such are not verified
but guess what I don't care that they don't like them because
There's all these developers out there
Who will simply hit the copy button?
And try to make a copycat. They don't have any skill whatsoever
But they will try to copy what my developers have built and that's not fair to my developers
They worked very hard to build that in addition to that
A much I mean it's about a million percent easier to hack something that's verified
Because they see every single command they see every single
Line of code and where the the the mistake might be
But if it's not verified, they can't see it. They can't send random commands
They have to utilize the dap to interact with the contract. So yes by design
It's not verified that is for you and that is for me
100 transparent about it. I don't want somebody stealing my code and you don't want somebody hacking your contract
Okay, yeah, that's really great and uh, thank you so much for answering my questions i really enjoyed the position
Thank you. I love I love that passion rick. I really do, you know, um
You really see people that are so proud of their developers and their work and you know, speaking of
Of team members, how many people do you have in the team? How many developers how many I don't know people
Focusing on the business development side. Is there a large team or is it sort of like a
small group of people working on this
We got a team of five and it's a team of five people
That I would trust with my private keys of every single wallet that I have
Right. So that is something that not many people out there would do but
I have I have u.s military members who are overseas deployed in saudi arabia right now. I have
developers in eastern europe who are
Literally changing their entire lives because of the of what we're doing here
and I I have people from around the globe who are committed to what we're doing and
To me you don't need a you don't need a team of a hundred
You need a team of five people that you truly trust that are fully bought in and that can really
Present themselves in a way that they need to present themselves to the public
And make sure that every single thing that they do every minute that they put into this project
Is with the right intentions with the right desire and with the right amount of passion and and that to me
Is what we've been able to bring to the table
And I I know I've known these guys every single one of them for at least five years and I wouldn't trust
Anybody else on the planet as much as I trust these guys. So are we perfect?
Could there be flashy or developers out there? Maybe maybe there could be 100 there could be but I wouldn't trust them as much
Definitely wouldn't trust them as much. So to me that goes above and beyond anything else
I could ever ask for is at its core having that trust
Love that. I love that you have people, you know
You can trust that much and people that are working with you, you know and able to build such such cool things and um
I'll say this too, you know
It's important for your community and your ecosystem to have someone like you that's a very good delegator
Like you mentioned, you know
If you need something build you don't need to build it yourself
you have these people that you can rely on and sort of
delegate tasks to and you can talk to the community and perhaps people from the community will rise up to
The challenges that you may face which is a very very good approach a very healthy approach when it comes to community building
You know you hear all these
Tokens and everybody's talking about community
But I think you're going about it the right way where the community is holding the tokens
Their community is holding plp the communities has a say in the decision making and then you know, there's also somebody at
In the leading position sort of to steer the reins. So I think you're doing I think you're you're in a great path
Also, I wanted to ask you if there's anything that I might have missed we're coming up to to the end here
I tried to sort of brush over everything, you know
We talked a little bit about the decentralization and the philosophy behind that why you're so
keen on creating this in a certain way or we touched on the staking the lps the the importance of community the
We got a little brief of the utilities of the lst token coming up, you know with some gamification
And thank you for that little alpha drop here
Um, I don't know. Is there anything that I might have missed or anything you feel important to to highlight? I'll I'll pass it over to you
Yeah, I mean at its core it's
To play right? I mean again i'm a d gen by heart and I could
easily make meme token after meme token after meme token
And nobody would hate me for it and they would be here today and gone tomorrow
But that is not that is not what I do. What I do is I want to build stuff
I want to create something special and will this go to a hundred million tomorrow?
Probably not but guess what? It'll be here in six months
It'll be here in 12 months and that's the difference that you're going to see between what we're doing and what everybody else is doing
They create this marketing hype this pump and dump
All for the tax or for the preloaded wallets that they all had before they started
You know even trading and all the things that you see and they're just going to create a new project tomorrow under a new telegram
And that's what they do and you know what they're making a lot of money because they do that
And I could do that too and every single person on this spaces could do that as well
But that's nothing to be proud of that's nothing to be passionate about
What you should be proud of and passionate about is when you build something when you create something
That nobody else has created that nobody else has done and that's really what drives me
That's what makes me passionate in this space is making something special making something different taking what's working from all these other
Sections all these other segments in the market, but doing it a little bit differently each and every single day
That's what motivates me and that's why I love what I do whether it's behind the computer coding
To be a dev or behind the camera recording these videos like the one i'm about to make for floki
Check it out soon here tomorrow coming up
But that's that's really what it is is I want to do it different than everybody else
I love the passion rick. I really do and
I agree, you know building is a thing to do if you're out there if you're in the audience if you're listening if you're
Sitting on the sidelines still deciding whether or not you should jump into the web3 space
I think you should I think you should find something that you like
I don't care if it's tokens if it's nfts if it's managing communities, whatever kind of skill you have
It can be applied to the web3 space
So that's that that's a very good call to action from from your side, you know
Just just build you know, and if you're someone that's as passionate as rick here is I think you're gonna go
So much to some amazing lengths here now before uh before I let you go here
Here's something playful that I like to do with uh with most of our guests
Obviously the bitcoin healthening is coming in less than a month now. Yeah, no financial advice and anything like that
What what's your uh, what's your prediction for uh for the end of the year for the price of bitcoin?
Where do you think it's going?
Yeah end of the year end of the year is a long time
I'd say it has to be like end of the year because if i'm asking like a month or two, you know, you might get it
Yeah, I might get it right. You're right end of the year is sort of like hmm who knows
Yeah, let's just speculate who knows
but guess what everybody I do know because
I I also play the charting game. Uh, i'm i'm saying 127
500 to close out the year
There's gonna it's gonna go higher than that before the year, but it's gonna close out at 127 500
And everybody's gonna be like, oh my god, I can't believe it happened and then guess what?
Everybody's gonna be like I can't believe I didn't get in bitcoin at five dollars
Just like every other bull cycle. Everybody's gonna be jealous of everybody else and we're gonna see a big old dump like usual
But our dump will not go below 40k and we're on again
The four-year cycle will not change
I love that. I love that trick. And yeah, well you heard it here guys
You know that we're uh, we're two x away from from
At least two x on bitcoin at least right? So we're we're heading the right direction
Oh, yeah, it's it's great. You know, I I see a lot of confidence in that. I was so confident. I don't know
I like that there's a lot of bullishness in the market, you know
We briefly talked about the salona
Memory and all this other stuff. That's just good indicators of people
remembering that there is this environment called web3 remembering there's such a thing called crypto and everybody getting involved and
You know people coming back now that have been on the sidelines for a few years
They're coming back to an etf being approved. They're coming back to a layer twos having really really cheap gas fees
They're coming back to very cool projects. They're coming back to people that have a lot of experience, you know
Such as yourself, you know, if you're somebody that started seven years ago
Well, that's uh, that's a pretty decent chunk of experience right there for somebody to get behind
So thank you so much for being with us here today
It's uh, it's great to see people building really cool stuff
And thank you to to your entire team, you know for creating this for everyone to get involved
