I want to address the reward system situation as well. So recently you've seen a lot of our posts and telegram regarding our reward system. We've we're changing our reward system that will benefit you in more ways than the current system and it'll help
us the track and retract from awarding any reward hunters. We want to reward those that participate on a daily and are always active and always hopeful for you know, media eye events and us moving forward. We definitely want to reward those of you who join us on a
