Everybody, welcome to the spaces. Another episode of the networking sessions. Hope everyone can hear me. Give me a thumbs up if you can hear me.
Excellent. See you in lots of thumbs up.
So let me start inviting our speakers and we'll get to it in a minute. So today's special guest is Lonely Astro Club. Some bring Stari up.
Hey there, man.
Hey, welcome. What's up, story? It's going well, little chilly here, but I like it.
Very good.
How have you got a few people on the call? It gets chilly where you are. I thought you were maybe a warmer climate because I expected it chilly where I met.
Yeah, it's um it gets a little cold in the winter but it's not too bad. So really chilly and not cold huh? It doesn't snow here.
I've always lived in climates where it snowed so at least parts of the year. Yeah, I don't know if I can do that. Yeah, no, I know. Once you get used to it, that's just the way it is.
So cool. Hey guys, this is Lost appearing on the Lonely Astro account. Hey Lost, welcome.
I can see we've got some great group already assembled in the first two minutes of the space. Space Skellies, Crazy Chris, Terror Spaces at any time when you guys want to jump.
jump up, go ahead and let me know. I'll let you guys speak. First we're going to give a couple minutes just to talk about the weather, get some people in the space, and then we'll kick it off for real.
So just wanted to point out, I think this is a second time you guys have appeared on a spaces, locally astro club, is that right?
Yeah, we had a small appearance when you were doing the one with pixel wizards. Exactly. Man, Bernice pixel wizards just blew it up. That was really fun to watch. Yeah, it's really spectacular. Yeah, that was fun to watch.
It was great to have him on a space and catch that wave and hope that we were able to help get the word out because man missing that mint would have been, "oof, tough. I'm seeing those NFTs." Yeah, honestly, I'm seeing those NFTs and I just want more.
No, I totally agree. I was able to mint during the whitelist, but I missed out on public. I actually told lost to mint during public, and we both ended up missing it, unfortunately. Yeah, by like 20 minutes. Yeah, it went fast. If you blinked, you missed it.
Yeah, I'm super pumped about the project. Bernie is super creative. For sure. Hey, guys. Hey, overdrive. Sorry, sorry for coming, coming, coming late.
I'm uploading some stuff on my iCloud. Still haven't figured it out so but I'm glad that I'm here finally. So wait did you change your name? Yeah exactly yeah.
I wanted something less edgy, you know, something more normal. I was a new guy. Yeah, all new, all new and shiny. Yeah. That's cool, man. Which kind of wished that long time ago already because the
all name I mean I kind of liked it too it was named from it was inspired by the Neuromancer 3G one of my favorite books and I was using it in an online game but yeah I kind of thought well
Maybe I can have something like in crypto or Yeah, no, I think we've talked about this before you're really into sci-fi novels I'm actually a big fan as well. I haven't read that novel yet, but that's on my mind
You got to do that mate, but I'm also seeing that LAC is also pretty heavily inspired by the whole science fiction art. Maybe also by common science fiction tropes and they really love that.
Absolutely.
It's a lot of fun kind of like paying like homage to like old sci-fi films or books or characters. What I also especially liked I guess we could see during the last sneak peeks was that you also you were
We're also able to transcend the whole sci-fi thing and that you are not afraid also to get some NFT culture in there as we've seen by that one NFT which was homage to IBC friends or
The other guy with the pixel wizard. Yeah, we're artists. So collaboration is second nature to us. Yeah. So good thing. Now we're five minutes in or so and see we got a good crowd here. Still
Island welcome. We got Chris welcome. So I think we're going to just kick it off. Anyone in the space who wants to just give us a little retweet, let others know that they could also jump in, it'll be much appreciated. And without further ado, that's just
get into it. So on behalf of the networking sessions, we like to highlight some of the new projects and some of the OG projects as well when we get the chance. And Lonely Astro Club has appeared on our
The whole network has been really interested to see what's going on. I think everyone here is probably on the space, has seen that the art is really next level and the animation and the story. And even the people voicing the characters are like
almost like, you know, Hollywood quality stuff at times, especially. Yeah, I'm glad that you're talking about that. It was really impressive. I mean, this last, the last little movie that we saw from Lonely
the voice acting was just tough not. Oh yeah, we got egg 11 to he's just someone in our discord and he expressed interest of helping out with the story and he actually does dialogue work with
other projects and he sent me some samples of voiceovers he's done and I liked it a lot so I actually had him do one for the previous animation I liked it so much that I had him do the commander for this recent one and he did an amazing job.
Yeah, so it is cool. I think the performance talk about the commander was really something that sets it apart. I mean, I was I watched that thing probably five times already and each time I'm just like wow, I mean you just don't see that in
NFT, you know, in the NFT space to get something sort of that quality with that kind of level of design. So it's really, really cool to see and it's really exciting. And so who does the animation, by the way, is that lost or story?
That's not it. Yep. I actually have a background in filmmaking, directing, writing, and photography. So it comes really naturally for me.
I like telling stories, writing, and I like sci-fi a lot. So this has been a perfect avenue for me to explore things and create different stories. I love collaboration as well. It's something that's really
really fun and inspiring to me. And as far as I can tell, that's something that you've instilled in the culture on the Discord and even on Twitter, like getting people to sort of contribute to the story itself.
Yeah, definitely. Yeah, Stari is such an incredible writer and director. Right? Just these animations that he's putting together is really great. Yeah, can you guys hear me, RA? Yeah, perfectly. Yeah, you're good.
Oh, sorry. I thought I said maybe I got rug. It seemed like on the on the discord that you even encourage people to contribute like parts of their creative genius to the story as you're writing it.
Yeah, we do I think a really important part of the story for us is that we could just like Create this really deep lore behind it and make not only Actually just to kind of talk about this the the collection in general Hey guys is a guy who's getting a little bit rug door
I can hear you. Can you hear me, alright? Well, I'm hearing everyone perfectly, actually.
I'm not a hearing star.
Oh, I'm here. Can you hear me? Go ahead.
But yeah, I just wanted to tell you guys about the collection a little bit more and kind of the inspiration behind it. Do you know I don't hear anything? The intentions.
Weird it might be you man cuz I can hear him perfectly actually. Yeah me too
Sorry about that.
No worries. Can you hear me all right? Encrypted.
Maybe encrypt is in and out of it right now. Yeah, he might be lost lost in space right now. I know he's taking my moniker. Lots of empty space out there.
So I should be speaking right now. I couldn't hear a star for a little while and apologize to anyone out there, but I think we're all back now. Is everyone okay? Give me a thumbs up if you can hear me.
Yep, all right sounds good. Let's take it from the top. So I was just talking about the community. Maybe you answered that question. Apologies if you did.
But the other part is the NFT collection itself. So I believe it's lost. It's the artist who's doing the actual NFTs themselves, is that right?
Yeah, yeah, that's correct. We've put so many traits into this and a lot of hard work into it and we're continuing this stuff as much artwork as we can into it until we actually launch.
I'm like a one person that encrypt out can't hear. Maybe he's blocking
you are something I know suppressing me that's it you guys you guys got history together no no definitely not I mean we're very cool not that I would have blocked them over
All right. Yeah, man. Let's give it a little try. Yeah. You can go over time as the cohost and I'll just try and sort this out. Okay, cool. Okay. Yeah, so just to tell you a little bit about us, the inspiration for the collection, kind of what the plans are.
Stary and I are both career artists in real life and we've worked on projects together. Stary, like he says, a writer, director, photographer, I'm an illustrator and graphic designer. And one of the projects that we worked together on was a comic book. It's something we've kept very close to our best and is actually inspiration for this collection.
The collection itself is centered around deep lore building. We want to tell a story in as many ways as possible with this collection. The story has a full story arc. It's something that you'll be able to follow along with through our really awesome animations that start as creating. Oh, go ahead.
So, do we have a bigger narrative that the whole little stories are sponsored? Yes, it already exists. For sure. Yes, we've mapped it all out. And so part of the chapters that you see now, there's going to be an end goal to it. And at least just for the portion of the story.
And as we tell it, you'll kind of see how the traits play into it. Also doing interactive side missions on Discord. They're through our little activities. They're fun little activities, but we're kind of dropping some Easter eggs that way when you see the different chapters come through later.
on you'll get a bigger sense of like the groundwork we've tried to lay all along. So you mean it might also be interesting to go back a few chapters I mean after some of the stories already told and see if some easter access been dropped there. Yes we will definitely be able to recognize some easter access by the definitely definitely.
So it's like yeah through the animation, through the comic book, through the side missions, and then also there's kind of utility gamification element that we're adding into the story as well once the launch officially happens. And for any of you guys that
that don't know, our story takes place in the future. Earth's resources are nearly gone and the government has tasked a group of lonely astronauts with saving the world. We get to witness the astronauts as they embark on their mission. Seeking resources in the cosmos, we follow along with the astronauts
not essentially as the head space station and then soon they embark on their first mission into the cosmos. Find those resources that are so desperate. You can hear me. I want to make you the host. You're already the co-host. If you're able to take over as host,
and it allows me to drop. Then that would be great and perhaps I can come back yet because I'm not hearing half of the people speaking apologies. So overdrive are you able to take over as host or if I drop will you automatically host?
I got no idea, let's try it out.
I mean, let's just give it a try. Yeah.
Maybe he didn't. Can you make it make me just a host? No, there isn't such a button. I think. Okay, let's just try it.
You're dropping out and we'll see what happens. That's risky. I might as well just shut up. I think that might be better. That's rubbing me. Can you still come here, Lonely Esther Club?
Yeah, yeah, we're all good.
I can hear you. Okay, so just you know, let's continue. Maybe I maybe I can chime in another just small question or for sure. Yeah, for sure. Just the sentence of appreciation because appreciation because I know how hard it is to have a
Maybe the Rattostrick schedule or Rattostrick story you want to tell and still have enough free room for those little stories that your community members might come up with. It's a very easy task and I'm really eager to see how it all plays out.
Oh, we appreciate that man, definitely. And we're definitely trying to incorporate community feedback into this story as well. We already have someone who's named our commander character in this chapter. We actually have some
really cool, uh, little like choose your own story activities too that will tie into the bigger story. Um, and even though we have a lot of the story mapped out, there's room for engagement to kind of drive how it proceeds as well. Um,
But yeah, so the astronauts are just a quick question to the other people on spaces terror spaces If I can drop off as host and leave Overdrive as or Leo as the co-host will the space continue? Give me a thumbs up or a thumbs down please
So maybe I don't know. I wasn't going to take your word for it. Hey, Rekt Gang, do you know if I jump off as host? Yes, yes sir. Thank you so much.
Sure. All right. It's all you Leo and I'll be right back. All right. Let's try. I'm going to hit the end button. I hope it doesn't end it. Sure. Sure. Well, yeah. Don't hit the end button. What button do I hit, Rick?
All right. I know. I know. I this is the first time I've been rug at least I'm taking it in stride. Hold on.
Oh great! That's just called the soundboard.
Gosh, that's so funny
Do you think we're good or should we hold up a little bit longer? Let me bring Recta. I think in crypto, they're still trying to find out about to solve this problem.
just to say. Let's give him another minute or two. - Okay, cool. - Yeah, I'm here. I just brought Rack Gang up. I think Rack Gang will be able to tell me how to fix the rugging. - Yeah, you're done, man. So... (laughs)
Yeah, I don't if you close it, I think it'll close it. All right. Thanks. Thanks, Preserve. Thank you for watching Terra Space's tech support press one. Oh, there you go. If you have a rug issue, press two if you have a rug issue. One, one. No, so you you can't end the space. I
Did somebody already answer it while I was coming up? Yeah, I told them okay. I'll fuck off them. Thank you. No, no, it's okay. So I'll just I'll just stay on and I will imagine I'm not speaking over anyone at times. Okay. Sorry. I still will. No, I'll speak or can you you're gonna be Mike?
I got you. We'll fix all this in post. No one will ever even know this one. Yeah, perfect. Well, let's continue with our talk. So we were at the point where we were a lonely Esther Club was telling us how they are going to
How they are gonna use all those little stories and tie them in into the big narrative Yeah, definitely so the chapter stories or animations that everyone will participate in Holding one of our NFTs will give you access to our common
But there's also ways to engage on discord and our side mission and all of it fold into the bigger story and you mentioned something earlier about witnessing our collaborations We actually have some really cool things lined up for how these collaborations play into the story as a whole too. So that'll be in our
chapter stories as well as our side missions and the characters that you see in our stories play a significance to. So, you know, I was I was saying in the in the story itself where the astronauts are going to find the resources for Earth's future survival and along the way
our characters find out something's not quite right about the government there might be some nefarious things going on there. We uncover some mysteries and get to witness like the bigger picture of what's really going on here at the end of the story. But yeah in terms of like utility and gamification we're holding a certain number of astronauts will give you access to
future air drops, collectors will get to participate in a bounty hunt for certain assures as well that will earn you rewards. If you're on or discord you'll see that we have an economy for a coin that we call Star Dust. Right now the store just features whitelist spots, but we're going to issue more Star Dust for
the bounty hunts that will get that'll allow you to claim in real life items as well as some other things that we haven't quite revealed yet but just expect there to be more stuff that come into the store. So we're really trying to create this gamification aspect of it. We're connecting your wallet
it to our Discord, we'll get certain things verified and we're trying to implement that on our website too. If you've been to our website already you'll see that there's a little preview of how the bounty works and how we're going to hunt down certain astronauts and that'll play a bigger role into this story as well. That big reveal is going to
come in the chapters to come as well. But yeah, we're trying to pack as many story elements into it. Those characters that we follow along with through the story will be one of one characters that are in the collection. So there's going to be more to be revealed as well with that. And the only
One of one characters will give you partnership, part ownership of the story itself. So we have so many elements that we're packing into this and we're trying to make it as fun and interesting as possible while being able to tell this great interactive story.
And some I'm glad that you that you tell us all that because that's definitely something new something that I haven't seen so far and started before Also this kind of gamification where you're not just you know just like staking your NFTs and do quest or something, but where you
also participate in the story and maybe got some kind of a chance to influence how the story will play out by holding certain NFTs or by it kind of sounds like an RPG here, right? A little bit, yeah.
It's like a right to learn or right, right to earn, but you got to meant to be able to take part in that aspect of it, which is pretty interesting. I'm not usually a fan of like projects making their community do all their work for them under the guise of, oh,
we're all creating this. Like, no, well, it's your project. You're just making us do all of our work. But like, if there's a good way to have that give and take that keeps people interested, because like, I mean, rumble and all that shit, like, that's cool. But that only keeps my attention for
you know, like a few minutes and then I'm over it. But if you have something that could continuously going. Yeah, yeah. For sure, we're trying to find that like perfect balance of incorporating people's comments and ideas without
it like affecting our main storyline. And the first time we kind of tested this out actually was with the network. We let in a small selection of people into our discord and we actually had them take apart in the actual like shaping of a chapter of the story.
which was more difficult, I would say, but it was a lot of fun and we're still trying to work it out how we can kind of like have that happy medium of like, 'cause we're obviously still putting in a lot of work, but I love having that community input and project input. It's a lot of fun.
But it's also not that easy I guess because you know some people want one day and some people won't be and You kind of maybe also kind of want to make everyone happy Yeah, and even so far so far it works. I mean the short stories we've done
in the Discord activities. We've definitely jumped out. I think I was able to sort out some issues everyone here in the UK. Yeah. You're finally a blocked Long the Esther Club to hear that. No, it's the network.
Okay, can you hear me all right in crypto?
Well, he's sorted it out. Almost sorted out. Oh my god. This is like doing sign language on the internet. You ever play that telephone game? You just tell me what to say and then I'll say it to him and hopefully it'll be the same thing you told me to say. I know. I want to
I have to just point out because I did have a couple of things to say that there are a bunches of colabs and traits that have inspired the club and I've been shown a few of them and I know for example that lost the artist has been able to
capture some of the key traits from some other collections. I know that we've got a trait, it's kind of a secret alpha maybe from the rep gang that we have incorporated. And so far I think we've already seen the fuzzy flies trait, IBC friends trait we've already
throw out there on the Twitter space and on the internet. I just wanted to point out that all of those co-labs were going to be sending some white lists to the groups thanks to Lonely Alpha.
to the Lonely Astro Club. I'm going to be sending out some whitelists and anyone who got their traits so far recognized look out for that in the communities. So that's just one of the things I wanted to point out. And if you guys wanted to jump into talking about some of the traits that have been sneak peeked to go right ahead.
Well now I'm curious when lonely alpha club.
That's the second collection. That's everyone here in the lonely Alpha Club. It's just another name for the network if you are rebranding or something.
the lonely off the club. It's just me and Lost in that group. Super, super exclusive. All right. So which collaboration have you got so far? Can you can you tell us that? Yeah, for sure. We have pixel wizards. We do
just did a recent one. We haven't released that on Twitter yet, but it's on our Discord and it's a really cool one. We have Rect coming up. We did one for fuzzy flies, IBC friends. And next week we have a really cool one planned with T.A.
And it's going to be two one of ones and some traits as well. And we're actually including them in our story in the animations, which is going to be super interesting.
interesting it also you know it fits thematically right they're also doing the soul the soul science fiction humans are coming space apps are already there how it's going to play out but I mean they have really some lore right but which is also kind of interesting
to read, but so far of course nothing of gamification or for the lore story building and that's where you come in. You also have space galley coming too. So lots of collaborations.
That's pretty awesome. And do we know I mean all the stuff you're currently doing is still it's still a lower building world building right but
Can you give us maybe some alpha on some alpha on when we are going to see those NFTs or maybe like when we are going to be able to buy them?
Yeah, so we're actually expecting a little month, or a little less than a month out right now. So it's going to be sooner than you know. We're just finalizing a few things and we don't want to prematurely like land on a specific
date but we're ramping up to get it launched really soon. Okay so we are talking February right? Yes. Yeah that's the goal. Great.
So you guys gotta tell us of course so we can support the star case vote So you go there and get maybe the feature with flying colors are you guys actually aiming for the star case feature or not?
We for sure are. We're definitely. We're definitely going.
Sorry, that was my dog. Yeah, but we're definitely going for the feature for launch and we'll be applying for that soon.
It will be very interesting how it's going to be played out. I also feel like we are seeing more and more quality projects on Stargaze. That's always great news.
means that the chain is developing, then the key marketplace is developing further of course. You also planned some other non-stargase collaborations so far.
Honestly, I would love to collab with PS Labs. I think their artwork would fit perfectly in this kind of universe. So I'm gonna try to talk to them soon. Oh yeah, you mean the Citizen's collections, right?
I would love for the Astros to maybe visit that planet, that jungle planet that all those characters are on. The characters look so interesting. I'm sure they could help with some of the rendering for the characters and whatnot. I'm sure it would be an amazing collab.
Yeah, I also always felt that they they want to do more with the citizens right they got this backstory they got all those traits you know the classes The different races the jobs that those citizens are doing and they've released even more of them down poly
on a very successful man so far I think they are nearly minted out. But so far we haven't seen much more of our much wealth but he would. Yeah I remember them talking about I think the creator is friends one of his good friends is like someone who
actually directs films and writes for films as well and they're talking about doing some sort of lore building or whatnot but I haven't heard anything else about it but I'm definitely curious. Well and that's one of the cool things about the network is that somebody in here
knows a guy who knows that guy. So anything anybody needs, he's just like holler and people make it happen. Hey cool that's what we're going for. We try to be useful anytime when we can and a lot of people here on the call hope our members know that I see more
Most of them are and I hope that everyone does benefit from that. So I appreciate that terrace basis for that shout out to the network. In fact, we didn't say it in the list, but the network is co-labbing with Lonely Astro Club in terms of
an entire character or let's say a secret society perhaps in the story, named after the network. And so we're still building that story and with a role for the network, but there's been some alpha-leaked already in terms of a character and maybe
a starry or lost maybe you can go into detail about the role of that character. Oh yeah for sure I mean I think it was like chapter two where we introduced the character switch he's kind of like a matrix type character kind of like the red pill blue pill type of character.
And we kind of left it at a bit of a cliffhanger. So I have plans soon to incorporate him into the story more and kind of go deeper into his background and what the network is in our universe. So it's going to be very interesting to see.
Man, I'm super pumped for that.
Yeah, I was just gonna say we'll definitely have to talk about it. I'd like to collaborate on the ideas for it as well.
I think we will be able to get something brewing. It should definitely be possible. I also hope to see a collaboration with Longshlong Kongs someday.
Crazy those crazy eight mutants Would also be interesting to see how they play out in the space environment Dude, oh my god our story would take a real dark turn
I would love to see their zoom out technology take some sort of form in the lore where everyone is just like completely terrified of these things and they're like we have to get that zoom out
technology so we don't have to see their shlogs anymore please.
That'll be rated R.
I think the turn of this conversation is going is one of the cool things that I've noticed about the discord for LA club because obviously you guys have slow built some community and allowed that community to already create some culture and be
be a part of the story and make contributions. And I like the idea that you guys have had your discord go in. You're always available to chat with the people who jump in and you're encouraging like participation and culture over just, you know, rushing a collection to the Friday mint on Stargazing.
without any culture or without any community behind it. So I mean, maybe you could just speak to what contributions the culture has made so far and what you've learned from attracting new people into the discord and having them jump into the story. Anything that you found.
Lost yeah, I would say engagement tells us a lot and having people interact with our different stories of kind of encourage certain types of engagement so Yeah, I think just seeing how people receive it it
In my day job, I do a little bit of marketing as well. And in that kind of metric is really important in driving what you do, making sure that the people that are engaging with you are appeased and you're not just creating for yourself. So the community is a
huge part in what we do and it does drive how we affect things and every time we drop like a discord activity we are analyzing it and seeing what people were drawn to more. I mean we've dropped different types of activities like a crack the code to get a reveal
or choose your own story or messages that come from a mysterious place and that is driving the story day by day. We do have an outline based off the comic book on how we want the whole story to go but the activity
and the engagement with the community really drive just how we take little twists and turns and add easter eggs and naming of the characters or proposing new characters or side stories and folding that into the main story.
I know that we had just had a pretty recent story right now with the commander and with the great voice acting of course, but
When we will see the next part, I'm already feeling it's like some Saturday morning cartoons where you can't wait for the next week till you get the next episode.
And hopefully next week, honestly, I've been going pretty hard. I think I've been coming out with an animation every week and a half, maybe two weeks, which is pretty tough to be honest with you, because I have to write the dialogue, I have to find someone to voice the dialogue.
I have to render the images and then I have to actually animate it. And one cool thing as well is kind of as I've progressed doing these animations, I'm getting better. Like I used to experiment with animation in college and I kind of had a big gap in time.
But now I'm just like a full blown animator now, which is a whole new world for me really. So even coming out really grimy. Just let me get this straight, sorry, you do not do the art at all, you just do the animation so you get just like
some pictures from from from lost and after that you try to animate them or how is the working process here? So I render out the images using mid journey. I you know I render out a bunch of images like folders
and folders images after I have like a concept. And then I, yes, I animate it. So I'll do like a front of one character, a side view of one character, and then I've gone to the point where I can actually like animate their mouths and such and make them blink. So I'm still figuring stuff
out and I think as I progress it's just going to get better. Wow, so maybe if maybe we have to wait for a year or something and that's also compare your animations with your old ones. It's going to be Pixar in one year.
Considering how much better he's getting. Yeah, it kind of sounds like this sounds like we're gonna lose you to some some huge animations. Yeah, no, honestly, if you looked at the first animations, it's like leaps and bounds difference, you know.
from the current one we have now. So yeah, I'm getting a lot better. I mean, that's just technical ability too. I mean, I have to commend you, sorry, for having such a director's eye. Like, your vision is there and that drives a lot of it. So there is a lot of this technical stuff that you're learning.
But what you've been able to do with the writing and the telling of the story and just how you compose those shots, a lot of that is intrinsically you, even before these little things that you've been learning with the animations themselves. Well, thanks, man. Appreciate it.
And I think we can also give another shout out to the community and if they find some ways to help you guys out there like I glib and fit with this fantastic job on voice acting. Yeah, just drop a message and see what you can do.
Yeah, why that's a good idea. Why don't we open it up to anyone else in the community currently listening? I'll keep my eye out if anyone wants to jump in and ask a question to the project or if anyone wanted to jump up and just say a few words, go right ahead. I'll put you up.
And while you're doing that, I got just kind of a quick question and a thought, perhaps, and maybe not necessarily with like the main story, but any possibility for size
stories that mimic the actual CT drama that we're seeing because I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for an animation of this all-nodes, notional, lunk.
validator key to buckle. I think a lot of this stuff would make for good animations, you know.
Yeah, that's definitely something to think about. I love including stuff from real life.
We'll see. We'll see. And Teruspaces, are you suggesting that we sort of do a rec news animated series?
I can either confirm nor deny, but that would be pretty slick.
It's interesting. I wonder if Starry can stay up late at night animating the drama on the cosmos. That would be pretty hilarious.
You'd need a whole sub down for that, definitely.
And there's also maybe some financial help from the customer's change.
Man, I start like a I start a proposal for animations for rect I'd like to see at least five funding community proposals up by the end
the day for different animations. I think that would be super awesome. Yeah, exactly. I mean, this proposal for those YouTube guys went through, right? How much have they got?
Did that show through? Yes. Oh, thank you.
That's all we need to do and we've been studying these tactics and I think the simple
way to fix that is to spin up your own chain, control 51% of the vote via the validators that you've also spun up and then just fund what all the homies want funded.
Can I just jump in real quick and ask, have you already covered the role of Star Dust? I heard that you guys have like a token that you're using for the community. Sorry if anyone already said that.
Yeah, we did cover that a little bit. I'm sure crypto won't be able to hear me starry. Do you want to cover that a little bit? Well, one interesting thing we're doing is
Star Dust is actually going to be included in our story. It's one of the resources that the Astros have to mine on other planets to kind of help Earth. So we actually have that currency as well on our Discord.
In the future, at some point, I mean, obviously you can use it to buy whitelist, but in the future, we'd like to put merch and different things on there for sale. On a side note here, Lost actually used to run a clothing brand.
He actually has very proficient skills in making clothing designs and cool things. Do you want to expand upon that loss? Yeah, definitely. That's actually how I became a graphic designer like 10 years ago. I mentored other under
another retail and clothing company and did like a hundred plus designs for them and inspired me to create a company of my own. And we want to take some of that inspiration and bring that into our company because really with streetwear culture there's a lot of similarities.
There's a collector mentality, a limitedness, a cool factor that incorporates collaboration. And so it feels like a fun element to fold it into what we're doing here. So giving like limited enamel pins and hoodies and things of that nature, which will be
be able to claim with your stardust in our shop. So holding an NFT and then having that stardust will get you some of those collector items that will send to you in some cases essentially for free with your stardust. And then you know there's other things that we're going to include in
stores well, but I think that is a really fun aspect of it. It's very fun for me creating those type of things and I'm a sticker and pin collector and things of that as well. So it feels like something that goes hand in hand with Web 3.
I just wanted to make note here. Maybe you know that Bernie is the creator of Pixel Wizard. It's already got his webshop up.
or some items where you can already paint crypto and I don't know maybe if you can contact them or help each other out here. I didn't know that. That's cool.
Yeah, very cool. So those are the viral wrecked gang and viral. They've got another one. I'm not sure if they're like doing the service for others, but
might also be one to look into just for research. - Oh yeah, you're right. We've also seen some items today, right, on the, on the general chat. I think they were from that shop, right?
Okay, very interesting take on StarDest. Do you want to keep it like the only token for now? We will see further tokens.
That'll be only talking for now. Yeah. Okay. So does anyone from does anyone of some some of our community here have any further questions for for most of our first story?
Yeah, I had a question and it was if you could recommend because obviously the mint is important to every collection, but if you could recommend let's say the community to do something in particular once the journey starts, once they
start jumping in with their NFTs. Are they going to be getting roles? Do you have a vision of communities, trade-based groups, activities? And then what happens when they launch the whole project and the role of Star Dust or any traits or anything like that? Any alpha there?
I just noticed we got Cloud in here. He's also part of our team, big part of marketing and just
So it's good to have you man. Welcome Cloud. Yo, what's going on guys?
How you doing man?
I'm doing good man. That work. It's not by the listener. Cool cool cool. So taking back on that question there. Lost you want to expand upon that? Yeah in terms of
Validating your wallet and issuing roles. One thing we want to do is give bounty hunters a certain role and give them certain levels of access to that that gives you a little bit
of credence for collecting your bounties. We also have another thing where acquiring a certain number of astros will earn you a role as well and give you airdrops. We'll officially release
those details as we get closer to minute, but certainly we definitely plan to incorporate that into the story and into the collection as a whole. Yeah, I'll write a medium article explaining everything before mint so that everything can be clear with that.
But yeah, cool. I'm good. Thanks for having us though. This has been good. This is this is actually my first long form spaces. So a little, a little nervous.
I think I can get used to this.
I think I just got rugged by the technology, which is kind of my M.O. So what are you going to do? We could run one again, maybe where I can hear every speaker, and I probably would do a way better job hosting. So thanks for sticking with me.
for sure it wasn't a nice experience guys and I hope we will see soon a successful mint and maybe we will do a spaces another spaces right before that or maybe right after that you know also depends on you guys how busy you're gonna be
Yeah, I think for sure we should try and get something going, but I'm going to be following and the network's going to be following the LA club closely. We wish you guys the best.
of luck. You guys got a super cool community going and can't wait to see what the future brings. So thanks for being our guest. Maybe anyone want to do some closing thoughts?
Well, if you enjoyed this space, you can find them and more spaces just like it over at Terraspaces.org. Be sure to click the link to the Discord for the network and have your network NFT trait ready.
I would hate to see you get shamed and laughed out of the waiting room for not having the appropriate great NFT. Tons of good info there. So.
Ben, I might have to get you on as one of the characters in the future. That's what I was thinking. I love his pitchman voice. It's one of the best in the space.
Well that's right Bill, we will take a look at the calendar and schedule some time in back to you, Stari. Yeah, I need like a newscaster in my story, I think so. You might be perfect. Thanks everyone.
Thanks everyone for showing up. I think we did one hour and appreciate it. And we'll try and do this again soon. So have a good evening and I'll see you around. Yeah, thanks everyone. Peace out. Thanks everyone. Goodbye.
