guys.
This is Grateful Show 439. Let's go!
GMGM just got off the incredible event in the other side.
I know me a bit. They're hosting every second
week, I think, events
in the other side. It was great. We got
fireworks. It was amazing.
And those 3D alatars, guys,
those are insane. I tweeted, I think,
like a week ago that not everyone see it, right? But Matt and John, they created MeeBits as 3D
avatars, as a future for the metaverse. And here we go. We are here. So I think that's Alpha.
We're going to be talking what they have been building, what they are bringing to the other
side about football. And, you know, talking about football, I have Gatsby here on stage.
He's from Spain.
Is there any other more crazy nation than Spain in football?
I know Sergito will not agree probably with me.
But Gatsby, how are you doing, bro?
What's going on, man?
GM, bro.
I mean, to be honest, I might be the worst person you can ask about football, even if I'm Spanish, bro.
Like, my friends see me like a weirdo, you know.
I'm all DJ and I'm all crypto.
I climb and shit because I don't like football.
So, I play it, but I don't watch it.
How to ban him from the stage?
How to ban him from the stage?
Goddamn, bro.
How are you doing today, man? Anything that caught your attention
past week? Good, man. Good. I've been doing all the bounties. You know, it's been hella work, bro.
Not gonna lie. You know, doing the quests. I'm not in level 40 yet. I'm almost at... I'm breaking 39
today. But yeah, man, you know, trying to keep up with everything and at the same time
finishing the development of the RealAlert app that we announced in the last space with you.
And yeah, man, trying to get Relay plugged into that for easy, you know, bridging natively inside the actual UI.
So we can facilitate bridging from other chains to it and a bunch of other stuff like other side listings and stuff like that.
But it's not going to lie. It's a lot of work, a lot of other stuff like other side listings and stuff like that but
it's it's not gonna lie it's it's a lot of work a lot of late night late nights man how are you
doing grateful doing great bro great to hear that uh i know everyone has been cooking so much man
with vibe coding it's even more crazy right uh you mentioned that hunt, guys, definitely. You need to go to blackbeard.apechain.com and do those hunts.
I see NGB down there.
I don't know, NGB, if you want to hop in and explain how it works.
Because by finishing those, you are entering some raffle or something like that,
and you can win something.
That's how I understand it.
But, you know, every time you compete, I love to compete,
so I'm there uh trying my best and it's so much fun running over the other side and taking those
selfies there so yeah it's great man my timeline is mostly um other side logan paul selling that
that um pokemon card and uh open claw that's it. That's all I see.
So wild, man.
16 million, right?
That was... And OpenClaw, bro.
One billion.
It's the first purchase of a one-person company
for a billion bucks.
And he's joining the team.
That's wild, man.
Did you end up configuring everything in your computer
or are you just going to wait for a chance to...
Yeah, I have VPS, bro,
but it's wild to set it up.
It somehow works, but it took me so much more time
that actually it saved me.
So I think if I will keep using it for two years straight,
I think then it's going to be even.
But it's wild.
I want to learn how it works.
I think there's a lot of hype on timeline,
like with everything new.
I don't know about the use cases,
but you want to learn and see how it works
so you understand, right?
So yeah, it's crazy.
It's crazy.
Absolutely, man.
And TGPT is going to make it a lot easier as well
if you think about it.
And that's probably coming in a week.
So you're going to be able to spin up
CloudBot agents and stuff like that.
I'm not sure how they're gonna manage that security future type thing if they're gonna recommend you put it in a new machine
or how they're gonna plan to isolate that, but I'm really curious, man. So let's see.
Let's see. Big things happening. Apple is 100% winning there. Guys, one more thing before we
say hi to Sargito. As I mentioned, we had incredible
experience in the other side, just like, you know, hour ago it started and we saw amazing fireworks
there because it's a year, it's a Chinese year of red horse. And I will use tweet by Vera. This year of a red horse comes once every 60 years in the Chinese calendar.
So it's rare, it's wild, and I really hope it's going to bring us a lot of great things.
It's really exciting to see all the OG teams building and all the OG projects building,
right? I know Sergito, you guys acquired me a bit, but it's incredible. I remember when they were minting and so many memories and checking all the trades and 3D.
It's great. I'm really, really happy, guys, that you're here. So let me quickly say hi to Hype,
and we're going to get into what you guys have been building, because it's really exciting. And
before we do that, guys, also please hit that retweet button so more people can see it, more
people can join us. We have 12 retweets, so we can pump those guys, also please hit that retweet button so more people can see it, more people can join us.
We have 12 retweets, so we can pump those numbers, please.
Over 32 people here.
And let's go.
Hi, what's going on with your background, man?
Can you explain what's happening there?
I don't understand that, man.
That's weird.
That's weird.
I've changed to the dark side.
I no longer associate with awkward.
No, I'm... Brother, what the hell, man? It's Chinese New side. I no longer associate with awkward. No, I'm brother.
What the hell, man?
It's Chinese new year.
I changed my background to a golden background for a golden boy,
golden child, golden hype.
But no, I'm celebrating, obviously, you know, I'm of Chinese descent.
So I'm celebrating my cultural day today, which is obviously Lunar New Year.
So shout out to those, you know, that celebrate.
This is temporary, my friend.
This is temporary.
I'm always aqua below the surface.
But today is definitely a day I'm celebrating.
And it's good to see that other side and Boximus really took on the opportunity to celebrate this.
So shout out to obviously the other side team,, to box miss an Amazon and, and for what
they did.
And of course anybody else that's celebrating today, uh, happy new year.
Can you, can you give us a short alpha?
So I didn't have to telegram my open claw about it.
Uh, what this year is about?
What can we expect man by Chinese calendar?
That's the year of the fire horse.
Um, there's so many years of things, bro. There's fire horse um there's so many years of things bro like there's fire horse
there's fucking calm horse there's like all these different like horses so this year's the year of
the horse on the uh you know on the obviously horoscope i'm not the year of the horse so i
don't pay too much attention to it i usually pay attention to my year but um obviously like you know
just like any other type of fortune you look at what it is i don't
i don't like to actually look at that because it it kind of like sets the tone for the year but
i like to kind of set my own path but um definitely a celebratory day um good luck to everybody this
year good fortune good health uh you may see me running around later as a red pocket packet if
you guys know what that is it's's, it's part of the tradition.
You know, when you're, uh, when you're celebrating Chinese New Year,
if somebody says happy New Year's to you and you are single,
they usually give you money if you are not single.
So, so grateful if you were, if you were single and I was not,
and I was in a relationship and you came up to me and I,
it was like happy New Year.
I have to give you money.
It's kind of tradition so
but today I'll be on the other side
so come find me at some point I'll be around
all day as a red
packet with a horse on it and maybe
give you some money
maybe give you some money
let's go let's go that's the alpha man
great to see you love the background

i i love the the hundreds t-shirt collab with you it's incredible sergito welcome here how
you doing man today what's good bro hey man thank you so much for having us. I knew it was going to be a great space when you were playing 50 Cent at the Top.
One of my favorite high school songs.
So, yeah.
I'm dating myself a little bit.
I'll be 40 here in a couple months.
But I was like, hell yeah.
Let's go.
It's going to be a good one.
I know, man.
Let's go.
Time flies.
It's like, I think the album that that i played released like i don't know
2004 maybe or something like that and i was like 2002 or maybe even earlier right oh my god time
flies time flies it's wild but i'm super happy to have you here guys uh me bits absolutely og
project um you know i remember remember when they were minting.
I actually got into MiBits
because
there was an
other side event in Berlin
and I got invited
and I was like, hey, I need a MiBit to go
there. So I picked beautiful
MiBit that you could see on the other side.
And it was one of the
best IRL events I've ever been to.
Because we were in the metropolis.
We were running around, testing life with so many legends, punks, apes, MiBits.
It was great.
Serijo, were you there actually?
I was not.
I was not, yeah.
But yeah, those were, so just to give people context, MiBits were created by Larva Labs,
who created CryptoPunks and Autoglyphs and Quine last year.
But it's their third project.
They're, as you can see them, 3D, fossil-based digital sculptures.
And their idea is that, yeah, you can use them in metaverses,
you can use them to represent you in the digital world that we all live in.
Larva sold Punks and MiBits, as you all know, is that, yeah, you can use them in metaverses, you can use them to represent you in the digital world that we all live in.
Larva sold Punks and MiBits, as you all know,
to Yuga Labs in 23, was it?
22, 23?
And then we acquired MiBits from Yuga actually a year ago,
almost to date on Valentine's Day.
And we've been building and developing Meavit since.
We do have Yuga Labs as an investor in Meetco.
So obviously very closely aligned.
We have a very strong partnership, as you can see by our constant activations on Other Side and Ape Chain and us trying to really always support the family there.
And obviously, they support us a lot.
So that's kind of like the background.
Just people don't get confused as to who did what.
A lot of credit goes to Yuga for building Metropolis on the other side.
It's a standalone island.
It was the first kind of public other side land.
Right now, we are just you a little bit of alpha,
since you guys love the alpha in this group.
That build of Metropolis is an old version of the engine
that they're using for other side.
So we are revamping it right now to be able to bring it back
to the current modern standard,
all the fun stuff that you can do on other side and bring it back to the current modern standard, all the fun stuff that you can do on the other side,
and bring it back up for not just mediates,
but everybody that wants to go in there and enjoy Metropolis,
which is a beautiful place, hopefully later in the spring.
And yeah, so we're super, super excited about the future of digital.
I feel like along the way, NFT projects,
obviously everybody's trying to survive and make money and generate revenue how they can.
And physical is a big component of it.
I think, you know, we're all human.
We love just having things that we can touch, hold, see.
And that's awesome.
That really builds kind of like, you know, just an affinity towards things.
But we also came to NFTs and crypto and Web3 for really, I think, the possibilities that digital asset ownership unlocks.
And that's, you know, being able to do fun things over the internet.
I wrote an article last week, you know, the internet is our playground.
And that's what we're focused on with Meavits.
We're going to make a lot of fun things to really push, explore, try things, hopefully do really well at most of them.
Maybe we'll fail at some,
but just really explore the frontier of digital,
which I think is something that maybe got lost
over the last few years.
And obviously other side is a huge, huge part of that
and a huge bet for us this year.
So here we are.
Really excited to share more about our announcement this week.
Maybe it's football and then everything else that we got going on.
So yeah, let me know how best I can answer some questions.
100%, man.
I always think about what Gary Vee said here on show,
that the world will be more digital, not less, right?
That's 100% the future.
Like no one can deny that because we are getting
more and more digital every single day, also with AI and everything. So I think NFTs and
art, wearables and everything that's happening on blockchain, I think that's so obvious. Maybe
we were a little bit too early, but it's so obvious for me that it's the future so really hype for all the true builders that are
you know still going still pushing still doing doing stuff it's it's great to see man before i
ask you the first question that i have here i will quickly say hi to makaveli another legend from
other games um that has been hosting so many experiences in the other side. Machiavelli, how are you doing, bro, today? What's good?
Man, me and Sven just got done trying to set some records over in Gemrush
on the other side with the whole MeBits crew.
Shout out Bojangles and everybody.
We was having a good time.
You know, MeBits has been doing their weekly, bi-weekly spaces at 11 a.m. EST on Tuesday.
So just having a good time with the Mibitz crew, actually.
And really excited about what Sergito and them have coming up for the other side.
And the fact that, you know what I'm saying?
Like he just said, they're built on an old version or whatnot.
But, you know, Metropolis is no joke, you know?
So cannot wait for that to be revived and reutilized and put into motion.
Hell yeah.
It's 100% no joke.
I miss that place, to be honest.
I miss that place.
It was beautiful.
And I think it will be great to have a Nexus, Swamp, and beautiful Metropolis.
Everything's different vibe, right?
And I think that's going to be dope.
So yeah, Spring, let's go, baby.
NGB, what's good?
Are you here or in the other side?
What's going on, King?
Yeah, I'm here.
You know, to Max's point, we just wrapped up our MeBits Takeover Other Side event.
It was a great session.
We wrote out the Lunar New Year celebration at the top of our event.
So big shout-out to the other side team for working with us to get that live.
And, yeah, man, Blackbeard's bounty is popping.
There's a couple other things in the pipeline,
but we're here today to talk about Meebs and all the dope stuff they're doing.
As we all know, they're an OG project.
They're super dope.
I mean, they hold close to my heart being a part of the Yugo Labs fam at one point. But even just seeing, you know, if you've been around the space, you know how passionate Mr. Sergito is around his Meep. He in and taking over and just being the best steward, I think, possible of the Meep brand.
You know, from Bo to Sergito to Bailey and a bunch of other folks they have on the squad.
They're real Meeps.
Like, they're diehard Meeps.
They believe in the brand.
They believe in the vision.
And, you know, we welcome them into the other side and are excited to see, you know, these football kits.
I mean, you know, these these football kits i mean you know most
most watched sport in the world uh a bunch of amazing i think just renders i don't know what
you call the avatars but from what i've seen so far they've been uh you know they really hit home
i'm excited to collect them and yeah all i can say is you'll i think you'll see a lot more me
bits in the other side from our game events to hopefully Metropolis to these other side avatars to I think a bunch more and we're ready for it.
Hell yeah. I love football guys. For American friends, soccer, but same sport.
We're going to teach them.
I know.
You played with a feet, right?
They can keep football.
That's fine.
You know, you do the little gringo accent, football.
That's cool.
You keep that.
But the real sport is football.
And you can use our word in English.
In our other languages, we use your words for everything. In Mexico, we call it it el mouse when you're talking about the mouse for the computer.
And so you can say football and be global with the rest of us.
But yeah, we're super excited.
I think I mentioned not here or maybe at the other side,
but the World Cup, on average,
every single game has the same viewership as the Super Bowl.
So you're getting like 30, 40 matches that have the exact same viewership as the Super Bowl. So, you know, you're getting like 30, 40 matches
that have the exact same viewership as one Super Bowl.
So just hold on, each game?
Each game on average.
Oh my God.
Yeah, exactly.
And so it's very inclusive, which I think, you know,
first and foremost, well, you know, I'm from Mexico,
as you can see from my Mibit wearing the Mexico Mibit uniform.
And also, you couldn't tell by my accent.
But it's a global sport.
Mibit's a global community.
Mibit's is very inclusive.
We have all kinds of different looks and skin colors, hairdos, like traits and stuff to
really represent everybody around the world.
And that's one thing I like about football. The second thing that I like about football and something that we learned from
Mipco last year is, you know, I mentioned 50% of our collector base is abroad. And that's not just
for Mivets. I feel like for NFTs, you know, again, like we came to the internet to make it our
playground. Why? Because, you know, maybe you live in a city that is not accessible or it's hard to travel or whatever.
And while physical stuff is cool,
what digital allows is for, you know,
to really participate into all the activations
and have a lot of fun online.
And so with the World Cup coming up,
Mivid's being global,
and us having this opportunity to have a playground
such as the other side, we put having this opportunity to have a playground such as the
other side. We put this all in ingredients into a cauldron and that's what Mibits football is,
which is, if you guys haven't seen the announcement, it's pinned to our Mibits account,
but it is a activation intended to be a blind box, but that's digital first.
So there was a lot of physical products that got launched in the industry last year.
We did a few of them.
You mentioned the hundreds t-shirt.
We had pins.
We had 3D prints.
We had an AI plushie.
We had hats and stuff.
Getting those things out to certain countries is very, very difficult between the shipping fees,
the customs fees. I mean, we shipped some t-shirts to the Czech Republic and it was like $150 for
the customs fees. We actually just paid a UPS invoice and Bo sent me the invoice. It was like
60 bucks for some pins that somebody returned because they didn't want to pay for the import
fees. And so again, we'll try our best to get stuff out to people that regardless of where they
live, Bo and I spent so much time at the UPS store and the postal office last year, manually
shipping and packaging and filling customs forms.
Just, I felt like I had an Etsy store, to be honest, but it was worth it for our collectors.
But it also showed us like, hey, it's really hard
to make sure that everybody can enjoy the stuff that you're doing if it's only physical.
And so we're going digital first and we have this beautiful mini-me style avatars that are
playable on the other side and they're going to be wearing different uniforms for the majority
of countries playing in the World Cup. Today we revealed Mexico for very obvious reasons with a really cool hype video.
And we'll be revealing the first six countries that we're doing for what we're calling Group 1,
which is this first drop, which drops on the 25th of February, each day over the next week.
And the idea here is that you have your blind box, just like you would with a physical, right?
It will be a blind mint.
The art is amazing.
You can see it in the video that we posted today.
And then at the end of the tournament, if you want to claim the physical, you can redeem so.
And we can go through the hassle of customs and all that stuff.
But this means that everybody can enjoy, play, and participate in what we're building, regardless of where they are.
And this also, you know, the fact that they're NFTs allows us, as we go through time, to make sure that, you know, we can create games on top of that.
Not just us, but other people, if they want to create games like Vibe-coded games and AI, all that composability.
And obviously the liquidity of being NFTs, I think it's something that cannot be overlooked.
So I've said a lot.
Let me know if you have any specific questions.
We've been working on this for like four months.
I mean, the fact that we're creating 10 avatars per country.
You see all these other big projects.
They have one avatar that represents the whole project.
And no shame, right?
Everybody has their own strategy,
but creating 10 avatars per country
for the majority of countries in the World Cup
to be playable in the other side,
I think it's a gigantic endeavor that we took on
and we're really happy the way that they're turning out.
That's amazing, man.
I think sports, metaverse, and NFTs,
that's an incredible combo, so
I cannot wait.
I forgot to mention the code for today,
guys. Let me quickly check if anyone
claimed, because it's easy for today.
It's very easy. Let me
quickly check if anyone got it.
Just me. Code,
guys, is football.
Yeah.
It's that simple.
Shocker. Shocker. guys is football yeah it's that simple so go to shocker yeah i i wanted to to have a code me bits but some mfr use it before i'm guessing it was you guys so maybe it didn't work but football works
it's a f double o t you know not f u f o o t uh you know how to spell it so go to op.xyz forward slash claim
football claim your badge incredible art by jubrell it's absolutely insane he turned my
ape into the me me bit it's really wild so get that badge and i'm bringing more and more people
guys i i believe a lot of you have questions if anyone in the audience have a question please
drop them into the comments i will go through them and I will ask Sergito.
My first question is,
so man, you mentioned every week there's going to be a release.
How it's going to work?
How can people participate?
Yes.
So we're doing by groups.
So we're not doing every week.
This week we're revealing the first six teams that are part of the Group 1 drop.
That goes live on OpenSea on February 25th, which is next Wednesday, not this Wednesday.
And then after that, we're going to do a second drop, Group 2.
That's going to have another group of countries,
we'll mint those.
And then as we get closer
to the World Cup,
we'll drop
the majority of teams.
I don't think we're doing
all 48.
This is the first time
in the World Cup history
that they increase
the field to 48,
which is a lot of countries.
But we're definitely doing,
you know,
the ones that everybody
knows and loves.
And if there's a special request for a country, like Ben wants
Kosovo, if they make it,
we'll make at least one
just for you guys. So
definitely, like I said, we want to be inclusive
and want to give fans
what they want to represent
in this tournament and the other side
and everything. So yeah, definitely reach out.
But the idea is to have about 30 countries
when it's all said and done.
Oh my God.
I don't know how many Albanians are active,
but I will rally the troops.
I'll pull out.
I don't know.
I'll hit the news channels over there
and let them know to come claim their goddamn meat bit.
But super dope, man.
Super dope to hear.
Sorry, Grateful. I didn't mean to cut you off. Just meat bit. But super dope, man. Super dope to hear. Sorry, Grateful.
I didn't mean to cut you off.
Just got excited.
No, bro.
So you haven't qualified yet, right?
Because I just checked.
And Czech Republic also has some qualifier games against Ireland.
We're going to be in the playoffs together?
Oh, yeah, man.
It's qualified for the playoffs.
So not like locked in for the tourney.
But Kosovo and Albania are going to be playing in the playoffs, I think in March.
So that's right around the corner here.
Hopefully, hopefully we play each other. We'll see.
Good luck.
That will be fun for sure.
I'm trying to get Lost here, but somehow it doesn't work.
I don't know if it's a background color or what's going on.
Oh, and he's here. You know, it's weird.
Lost, welcome here. How are you doing?
Am I here? I was just going to dance around the stage and make you press buttons the whole time.
Thanks for having me up. Having a great time. Having a great morning. We were just setting records,
attempting to set records in the Jam Rush with the MeBits community. Yeah, I'm ready to get my
football player. And I was also laughing. I went up on a stage the other day and I said something about soccer
and I got my ass kicked
and then they were very specific.
It's football.
And then you spelled it with the double O's
and I can't help but just laugh just a little bit.
But I didn't claim my badge.
That's a fire badge.
I love the Grateful Ape and the MeBit style.
So if you guys didn't claim that,
you guys are 100% sleeping.
That is a beautiful badge.
Thank you so much, man. It's incredible. I love that R2.
Who else we have here? We have Uncle Mac. Welcome here.
We have, holy shit, we have Bonjangle guy.
I hope I pronounced that correctly. Such a beautiful me, but that's crazy me, but oh my God.
And I saw him in the other side. I was like, damn, that's a dope.
Mine's better a little bit, but this one is great.
It's definitely better than an orange background.
And we also have Honeybee here, guys. Welcome here, how are you doing?
If you want to add anything, so let's say, Uncle Mac, anything you would love to ask, share, go ahead, bro.
No, I'm just a lawyer in. I just came up here to say GM.
DM. Yeah, just
Yeah, just enjoying the show. Looking forward to hearing more, Brian.
enjoying the show. Looking forward to hear more, Ron.
Amazing.
Amazing. You know, football
in minds, I think that's the alpha.
Bojangle, I really hope I'm
pronouncing that correctly. If not, I'll do push-ups,
man. How are you doing today? That
me bit is sick.
Thank you. You are pronouncing it right, but I think
you should still do some push-ups.
Yeah, thanks for having us up.
Sergio, I mean, he's covered most of it. I think you should still do some pushups. So yeah, thanks for having us up. Sergio's,
I mean, he's covered most of it. I think the one thing that I would add to what Sergio has said,
and he kind of touched on it is when these release and we reveal the art and you see them,
like take some time to look at the jerseys and the kits and things. Bailey on the creative team
and S10 on the creative team, like it's insane insane like i think i could speak for me and sergio like we're not the most uh artistic
uh folks of the bunch and so every time bailey and s10 come up with something it i think it just
blows our minds a little more to them i mean everybody here knows bailey he's just like
a little more to them. I mean, everybody here knows Bailey. He's just like, he's incredible
at what he does. Right. And so, yeah, when, when, when the art reveals and when you see all this,
like take some time to really appreciate like the hand crafting that went in, these are all made by
hand, like Bailey and S10 are going to build all of these countries that we do and their kits by hand. And the Mexico one that Sergio is wearing on SPF, it's insane.
Like, I think maybe Sergio, we should like do a tweet.
Like when you know what that jersey is based off of and how, like what Bailey did to tie
like Mibit's lore and like, it's incredible.
So the art alone on this drop is, I mean, we could have dropped this as literally art.
But like Sergio said, it's a lot more than that.
It's other side avatars.
It's digital collectibles, right?
There's gamification to it when the World Cup starts.
So I'm super excited.
Like we've been working on this for a long time.
And to finally have it out there in the public, it feels good.
It feels good to be able to talk about it.
Can you share
how the drop is going to work?
Is it like open edition or
is it like limited edition
that
you can mint? And also, where is it
minting? Because I saw the collab between OpenSea
and other side, so is it going to mint
in the other side or on OpenSea?
So we'll reveal
all the final mint details here over the next few days. It will mint on OpenSea? So we'll reveal all the final mint details here over the next few days.
It will mint on OpenSea though.
And obviously we're building in partnership with OtherSide as far as making sure that
everything, again, we're bringing in pretty much 60 new avatars into OtherSide, which
I think were the first kind of like OG project to like
bring in more IPA.
We want to grow the other side.
So that's the partnership.
Yeah, and OpenSea is our partner marketplace for both minting as well as secondary trading.
And which chain do you use to mendoz? Is it Apechain? Is it ETH?
This will go on ETH Mainnet. And yes, again, so all those details, I'm like, we've been
working on this for like, what, like three or four months now. I'm super excited.
Like, I just want to reveal stuff.
Like, the team's literally actively, like,
pulling me back from just, like,
revealing all the teams and all the hype videos we made for the release
because they're so damn good.
But, yeah, apparently you gotta go.
I don't know how to take my time, man.
You know, sometimes it's an advantage
and sometimes not so much.
I have the same problem, Sergito, trust me.
I just want to go.
Let's drop them right now.
But yeah, no.
For now, I would say a couple of things.
One, they'll be very, very accessible.
Again, think of them as blind box toys,
which is what we want to bring to the space, this idea, again, the internet is our playground, right?
which is what we want to bring to the space.
This idea, again, the internet is our playground.
So instead of buying a blind box or some random vinyl toy that you leave in like some vault and you never touch, never play with,
like instead you get this like really cool digital toy that not only is this beautiful, but you can do so many things with it.
And then two, we want people to like, you know,
build teams and so on. We want people to, I mean, my dream is to wake up one day and somebody's
built a game around these things without our permission, right? Like without, just went for
it and said, okay, you know, this is like, I don't know, like a card game or whatever it might be.
Like they vibe coded a game. Like that honestly will make me so happy.
And we'll incentivize some of that along the way.
But also think of it this way, right?
Like, if you have five, maybe it's football collectibles
of, like, France, and the French win the World Cup.
I mean, they kind of, like, deserve it after last year.
But, I mean, last time around.
Nothing wrong with Argentina.
But I feel like the French deserved it last time.
You know, you should win something, right?
Like there should be like some rewards and some prizes and so on.
So obviously, you know, lotteries and that kind of stuff get a little complicated.
But there's some really cool dynamics that we can do.
And if you know me, you know, looking to reward people that support us.
So, yeah, we just want people to, once they see them,
I think like really start getting to this like collecting, playing,
building, interacting, trading.
There's a lot of fun stuff out there.
So, yeah, I don't know if anybody has any specific questions or anything that we can answer.
Is there any like pre-sale or anything for Mibit holders?
There will be.
And again, once we put out all the details,
we'll obviously take care of Mibit holders
that want to support us first and foremost.
And then, you And then we'll...
So it's a limited drop.
I'll say that before I get smacked by somebody for saying stuff.
But it will be a limited drop.
Limit holders will obviously have early access.
MIPCO holders will obviously get a preferential rate.
And then it will go to the public.
And this is also, from MIPCO perspective,
we have so many incredible holders of MiBits,
but sometimes all those people are not in the day-to-day
and we want people who are here in the trenches
to have an opportunity to come and experience MiBit IP,
maybe with a football collectible,
maybe with 10, really fall in love with what Matt and John created.
And so that could be a good stepping stone to then collecting their first Meavit,
really going out there and buying, you know,
one of the Meavits that represents them,
that they want to hold on to forever,
that they want to display at home.
And all the good stuff that we,
who are in love with Meavits already,
have fallen in love with, then this football collectibles drop is a good way to get people to notice
MiBits as a whole and Metropolis and everything else.
Man, I cannot wait.
I actually can't wait to mint.
I haven't been minting much recently, but I can't wait to get mine.
And yeah, that's going to be a lot of fun.
You mentioned lottery,
but do you guys also plan to run some prediction markets?
We have a simple farmer here with a clutch markets,
anything like that?
Because I think these huge sport events
like Olympic Games, World Cup, NBA Finals,
it can be so much fun to bring community and fans together in a Web3 space, right?
Yeah, and so, I mean, I can give you a little bit of the background on how this idea came about.
First, you know, early last year, you know, we were looking at,
you know, people wanted physicals.
And obviously people wanted physicals of their MiBits.
So we did 3D prints and we exhibited those at the Larva Labs gallery exhibit in Marfa.
And those are great.
Actually, I'm surrounded by them.
I have so many 3D printed MiBits.
But we also wanted to bring the IP, as I said, to like a broader audience.
So we started thinking of blind boxes.
And that's when we realized, wait a minute, we're not going to be able to get these in the hands of all the people we want them to have.
So let's start thinking of digital.
And as we were thinking of like, okay, well, now there are NFTs, there's a gazillion things that we can do with them.
One of my original ideas is something that actually I put on an article.
It's called Outcome Defined Avatars.
And what I wanted to do, what I want to do one day, actually,
is be able to, you mint your, you know,
me bit, let's say in this case, Mexico avatar,
but it can also be like Florida State, or it can be the 49ers, or it can be any event,
or it can just be like even a political one.
Like, let's say, you know, there's a Democrat versus a Republican election, you know,
big election coming up in November.
You mint your MiBit that is wearing the whatever party shirt.
that is wearing the whatever party shirt.
And the idea would be to use backpacks,
you know, NFT backpacks,
which is standard exist
and that the chunks use pretty well with their trades
to put in a prediction market position
that comes along with your avatar.
And so at the end of that event,
you can then redeem that position.
And so not only are you rocking that visually,
it's like you're supporting the team or the outcome that you want,
but you also have skin in the game through the,
I call them outcome-defined avatars or OTAs.
Thing is, it's a little bit too complicated right now for where the tech is.
Also, legally, especially for a U.S. entity like MIPCO,
it's all kinds of toxic when it comes to gambling and so on,
given the regulations.
But that's what I think going down this direction unlocks.
These are cultural building blocks that combine technology, finance, media, sports.
Like let's really start exploring what else can we build with NFTs other than just like random JPEG that eventually, you know, the company decides to pivot or do something else and they just bleed value away.
Like what is it that we can build with digital assets?
What do we come here for?
And that's where this all started. That's the
direction that we're going. That's very interesting, man. And I'm here for it. I can't wait. It's like
with Open Claw, guys, the best way how to learn things is to experience them. So I can't wait
to mint as a MiiBit holder. I'll be there. Uncle Mike, I see your hand. Go ahead, bro.
Thanks. Yeah, I was just going to ask Segito.
What is your
marketing onboarding strategy here?
You've got this cool thing. It's got a global
audience. It's not just Web3 pigeonholed.
What's your strategy to if you
have one to take this from avatars for web3 people who like football to people who like football and
don't yet know that they like 3d avatars like how are you getting out there is there any partnerships
because obviously and just like tag it on the end um i know recently is it pudgies they did
a partnership with manchester City or something like that.
So like, have you got anything lined up like that?
Are you getting on some t-shirts somewhere?
Like where's the logos and the sponsorship and the branding and whatnot?
I love the question.
Yes.
So first of all, I think a lot of people misunderstand what a partnership really is.
So there's big IPs like, you know, the British football teams, British racing teams, and so many others that you can license.
So you can pay to use their image and then, you know, you sell your product with their image on them.
And yeah, it's a bit of a partnership, but it's not like, you know, the partnership that we used to kind of like in crypto.
You know, we got offered to license the ip of a actually a good formula one uh racing team
um and they wanted a few hundred thousand dollars for us to be able to like put their logo in like
a t-shirt that said maybe it's again is that really a partnership or is that just you know
them monetizing their ip in a good way um that's something we learned last year right like there's
a lot of a lot of things that you can pay money for
to generate some sort of engagement
or at least make it look like you're getting engagement.
But it's not organic.
And we've seen all what that does to the space long-term.
Not saying that's what Pudgy did.
I have no idea what they did with their Manchester City,
what was it, like a collectible and a hoodie, I think,
or something like that.
But I think for us, what we're doing is first we wanted to showcase this within web3 kind of like prove the use case like in my my my mind too like i would love to see people give this to like
their kids and like hey maybe go play with them um and then once we have a solid base are what
we're working on right now, and the
great thing that I'm in New York is given all the World Cup stuff that's going to get launched
this summer, we are talking to different brands and installations about partnering up and doing
things around them. So like the jerseys that we've designed, potentially bringing in those
in physical form. Again, like does it make a difference if it's like a big brand that creates them
and we pay them to do that?
Or do we make them with like an independent creator?
Or do we make them ourselves and sell them?
There's a bit of a balancing act
from a business perspective.
But the idea is for the second and third drop
to generate awareness with them already existing.
So we're not just like, you know,
trying to tell people who maybe don't believe
in like the whole NFT thing.
Hey guys, by the way,
if you give me X amount of money,
I'll give you this digital avatar
and it'll be live.
Like, you know, given where crypto is
as far as reputation goes,
it's a little bit difficult.
But once we have, you know,
a few hundred of these
running around the other side
and there's content around them,
people are talking about them,
even if it's just crypto folks,
but like creators making content,
then we can use that and turn around and be like,
hey, by the way, like you can buy one of these
and use them in these worlds.
And this is what people are doing with them.
So one, proving it.
But then two, working with OpenSea
to hopefully be one of the first jobs
that they can do with credit cards,
kind of like what some of the stuff that has been done on the other side
with some of the other payment providers,
so that people can come in and really buy them any Web2 collectible.
So yeah, there's a lot of work on the ground right now for precisely both those things.
One, making sure that whatever partnership that we do
is actually organic and it pushes us in the right direction. And then two, making it really,
really easy for people to come in and once they're aware of the MiVets football collectibles,
be able to get one without having to worry about all the stuff that is second nature to us now,
but obviously it's such a huge headwind.
And the last thing I'll say is we dropped Group 1 late Feb.
Obviously, we're like, what, three and a half months out from the World Cup
because we really want to go all in on this towards the World Cup
as people really start looking at tournament,
even stuff like the Panini stickers.
I don't know if you guys are familiar with those or not.
Those are the OG World Cup collectibles.
Those don't really drop until May.
The squads are not just, they're not yet set.
I mean, not even the teams, right?
There's like four or five slots open still for the teams.
So we're giving ourselves time to prove, create, and then really push.
Hopefully, you'll see a lot more of that in May
as the tournament kicks off in June.
Sweet. Yeah, they were good replies.
I would agree.
Don't go spending hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars
on sticking your logo on a T-shirt
or someone else's logo on your T-shirt.
Instead, use that money where it seems
like you want to use it which is actually um you know promoting and creating content around the
things that you are creating and and trying to my son's trying to join in the conversation um
but yeah the other thing i'd say is you're going with openc um I don't know, maybe see if there's any of that link-up connection
between the Amazon Marketplace and Yuga Labs and stuff like that,
because that could be a really good place to have it as well as
Prime, Amazon, real human people out in the world seeing these things.
But yeah, thanks.
Thank you, and Tellyerson. I completely agree with what he was saying
as well
Sergito, how do you think about social
media, do you guys have
like Instagram and I know
I know Chimpers and Pudgies and
a lot of projects that they have been killing
it there, some projects they don't do
much there, so how do you approach that
game with the normies oh, that's a great question too. And yeah, we haven't really spoken
about this much, but I'll be 100% honest with you. We have a small team and we saw AI videos
and animations coming really quickly when we launched last year.
And this is a very personal view.
I have the privilege of being the leader of the company,
so then it kind of almost becomes the company view.
But we were waiting for AI video creation animations
to really get to a level where they don't look like completely disgusting.
And now we're at that point.
I think we're maybe like a month or two out from AI videos really just becoming excellent.
And we were waiting for that.
You know, we dedicated our resources last year.
We have an intern, Sasha.
She helped us a little bit with social media stuff, creating stuff with AI.
It didn't really have the look then. And so we stopped that. In turn, Sasha, she helped us a little bit with social media stuff, creating stuff with AI.
It didn't really have the look then.
And so we stopped that.
So it's just been like upkeep.
But we do have an Instagram and a TikTok.
And now, I don't know if you guys saw, but we brought in Haslu, who used to work with a kid called Beast and a couple of other projects growing their social media.
He's a legend.
Yes, absolute legend. Brought him on. He's a legend. Yes, absolute legend.
Brought him on.
He's a Meebid too, which is great.
And yeah, he's been working on the World Cup stuff for the last week just because there's so much stuff I want to do with.
But behind the scenes is also just laying the foundation
for our Instagram and TikTok content.
We're not going to go the cutesy real route that some people have done.
Again, I think Pudgy's done a good job at that.
Obviously, it's like their whole brand is how cute they are
and people know them from outside.
Chimpers, I think, is really probably the most underrated brand
and not just Web3, but like probably globally.
Incredible art, incredible team, incredible performance,
really well aligned with our collectors from day one.
They do awesome.
Like those two brands do awesome.
I think for us, it's more going to be alongside
what we already have, which is, you know,
maybe it's our art first and foremost, right?
They're Larva Labs digital sculptures.
That's amazing.
You know, we have a partnership with Art Basel.
We've been doing limited edition sculptures for them.
Our last one sold out within two hours of the preview day opening.
We had some in Miami, Hong Kong's coming up.
And so we want to be able to like promote that, share those stories,
which are not really for like Twitter.
They're more for that kind of like art crowd.
As well as we do have this really cool initiative
that we've been building out for that channel,
which is, you know, Meavits represent people, I think.
And, you know, they represent me,
they represent Bo, Bailey, and everybody on our team.
And everybody that represents themselves with Meavit.
So we want to push on that idea
as a way to bring in awareness to the brand.
So can't say much more than that because I think it would spoil the surprise a little bit.
But we are building a narrative arc for a particular Amibit that hopefully will help us bridge that, you know,
it's not that they're NFTs, it's more that they are digital sculptures that can really represent you in the digital realm that we all, you know, we live in the digital world.
Like, yes, I wake up on my bed and it's physical, but, you know, I would challenge everybody to tell me that they don't check their phone within, you know, an hour of them waking up.
And, you know, you work online. You, I guess, you like people date online, right? You meet people online. You exchange value online. You, I guess you like people date online, right? You meet people online, you exchange value
online, like everything we do, right? I mean, you watch sports, you entertain yourself, you create,
you communicate, like everything is online. And so, yeah, we're really living in the digital world
and Mibits are the perfect vessels for that. And that's the kind of story that we are seeking to tell through our social media content
that will come kind of like alongside with this push on Twitter and crypto, Twitter, and then
outside of that for the World Cup things. Yeah, I agree on that because with creation of
animation, it can be so costly, it can cost so much money, and I believe, you know, you can use those
funds somewhere else, but with
AI, man, it's going to be a game changer, because
you can write those Twitter
and Twitter, sorry, TikTok and
Instagram real strands, and then
you can bring a lot of eyes on your brand.
But I agree, it's not easy
these days. I'll give you an example, right? So this
World Cup avatars, I thought I had not easy these days. I'll give you an example, right? So this World Cup avatars,
I thought I had a good Mac Pro.
I just bought it a couple of weeks ago.
And, you know, Bailey had finished all the stuff
and we needed to render them.
Again, we created 60 avatars, right?
Fully rigged.
You saw the animation
in our Mexico announcement today.
They're beautiful.
And man, just to render like the eight second, rigged. You saw the animation in our Mexico announcement today. They're beautiful. And
man, just to render like the
8 second
graphic that we're using for
the NFT, I left
rendering overnight. It took 5 hours
to render one of them.
And so unless you have like this
insane machines that like Bo
and Baby have, like it's really
hard to, to your point, not just create,
but like make sure that it is absolutely perfect.
And so we've been careful in just experimenting for now with AI.
But yeah, I mean, it's clear where it's going
and we definitely want to leverage that.
We want to make sure that it honors, again, the art
and the provenance of the project and of Larva and so on. So yeah, it's a bit of a balancing act,
but we're excited that technology is really cutting down all the time that's needed
to get cool stories out into the world. I see. Talking about Bailey, I see him,
the legend here in the audience.
Big shout to Bailey. Such a legend.
Absolutely love that. Also love to see
Meebits and Apechain
PFPs next to each other here in the audience.
That's also beautiful.
Honeybee, are you here with us?
Yeah.
What the fuck is going on?
How we doing? All good, bro.
I heard that football is also popular in Bangkok. Is that correct?
It's pretty popular here, man. Yeah, it is pretty popular.
It's funny because I was talking to a couple of them yesterday, and apparently I look Malaysian.
They thought I was Malaysian. I was like, really?
Did you say Malady? Malays malaysian my lady i need one

let's go let's do it it's funny because obviously these are little looking me bits
like the soccer ball on the other side it's's about to resize. It's going to be like Rocket League, but with little humanoids.
We need to talk to James about resizing that ball.
What do you mean by that?
Spend dropped off the stage as soon as you put balls into the spelling of that word,
but you said double O balls and Spend dropped. So yeah, we got something about this of that word, bro. You said double O balls and spend whoop dropped.
We got something about this community
and balls, bro. I'm telling you. This community really,
really likes balls. Isn't he like the
star player of the other balls
team?
It's not me, so yes.
Yeah, I heard you didn't
even show up for your game, bro.
It's honestly better if I don't.
I was there, but it was as though I wasn't.
What do we call you?
Blue balls?
Call me a fart in the wind on the soccer field.
I mean, it works.
His skin is blue, bro.
And then GB is coming back.
Yeah, he's coming back to confirm. That's all Yeah he's coming back to confirm
That's all
I'm coming back to confirm

Lost did show up
And he didn't show up at the same time
Pretty unique
And yeah my back still hurts
From carrying the squad in two weekends in a row
Seven goals across two games
I mean you could call me the Albanian Messi
At this point I don't know I don't know what to tell you.
Wait, wait, wait.
Are you Albanian?
I think so, yeah.
That makes a lot of sense now.
After meeting you in public, seeing the way you dress and stuff.
Oh, yeah.
Don't care the way you dress.
Holy shit.
What are you talking about? He looks like a
fucking board ape. What? you talking about? He looks like a fucking bored ape.
What?
An Albanian bored ape, now that you mention it.
It does.
Every Albanian I've met here in New York, you're right.
Oh my god, I've been exposed.
Must be the chain.
He's judging the chain.
It's a chain.
Yo, there was more than one chain.
Yeah.
But the chain has to be fake, right?
It's 100% fake.
Yeah, all my jewelry is fake.
I don't know.
Listen, I don't know if that chain is fake now.
I'm not going to say all that.
I don't know.
I don't think that they'd be wearing no fake chains.
That chain looked real as hell.
I mean, he loves aquamarine.
It was, you know, what they call patina.
Oh, my God. aquamarine it was you know what they call patina oh my god oh my god i love it i yeah this has
got to be great talk for the other side guys and for football games because we love trash talking
uh that's exactly there you go hell yeah that's what we need right it's like dude like that you
know what my biggest worry is
about the fact that I've been married
an American citizen
and I live in America
is that my children will be American
and they will probably cheer
for the U.S. men's national team.
And it's just going to break my fucking heart
every single fucking time
because I cannot stand
the U.S. men's national soccer team.
Don't get me wrong.
This country gave me everything.
I'm so happy and grateful and I cheer
for them in the Olympics. I cheer for
them across everything.
But fuck the U.S. men's national
soccer team. Like, ah,
God, no. And my children will most
likely at least cheer
for them a little bit.
And yeah, that's the kind of like
passion that football brings out.
And so, yeah, my kids will not be allowed in the house when Mexico and the U.S. are playing.
That's the alpha, guys.
That's the alpha.
And Jimmy, you wanted to add anything?
No, I was going to say, yeah, I mean, all they can do is cheer a little bit for them
because they never do shit in any tournament ever.
So it's only a little bit cheering.
But yeah, I feel you on that.
Kid Guri, welcome.
Oh, sorry, go ahead.
You haven't even made the tournament yet.
Bro, the only reason US is in the tournament is because they're hosting it, bro.
If it wasn't for that, come on, eh?
Are they really hosting it, brother? I mean, it's North it, bro. If it wasn't for that, come on. Are they really hosting it, brother?
It's North America, really.
It's Canada and the US, which I don't know why.
There's like 19 cities it's being hosted in.
Wait, two questions.
Did Canada qualify or are they in as a co-host?
Yeah, bro.
Of course.
Bro, do you have a football field in canada i thought you just have a
frozen legs there bro yeah hockey field it's a hockey field bro oh and you play football on that
yeah we play everything on that they they play tag they play hide and seek i think they live
bro i was doing research i was doing research for like the Canada lunch video. I mean, Canada is obviously going to be a team.
They're a host.
And the first song, I was like,
yo, give me a good Canadian high pop song for the soccer drop.
And the first song they gave me was a song about hockey.
Like that's just…
Look, we got Katy Perry now, okay?
Just leave it be.
Yeah, talking about Ice Hockey, guys.
Justin Bieber?
Y'all leave Bieber alone.
Bieber's a savage.
Alright?
Leave Bieber alone.
That woman that's always
all over like
Huntington's timeline
when it comes to AI videos.
Literally, this one gave me
was the hockey song.
Who are you talking about?
By stumping
some Connors.
I don't know about this.
Sydney Sweeney, brother.
She's Canadian.
She's Canadian?
She's Canadian?
I take everything back
about what I said.
Same.
Y'all number one.
Drake?
Y'all number one.
That's true.
That's okay.
You can keep him.
That was the only thing
that...
It's funny.
It's funny, right?
Because Vitalik is Canadian
and Matt and John are Canadian
from Larvalabs.
Oh, they are Canadians?
Really?
Yeah.
Rita's Canadian.
Damn, nice.
Rita's Canadian.
You didn't know that either, did you?
Rita.
Yeah.
Fuck, the whole world's Canadian now.
But I know that Honeybee,
only thing that he brought to Thailand
from US was a Sidney Sweeney
poster. He has it over his bed.
And yeah.
Right, Honeybee?
I don't have a mirror.
I just look in the mirror and it's Sidney.
You know?
You look like, right?
Just the beard, bro.
You should shave that.
Let me quickly say hi to Kid Guri.
Kid Guri, welcome here.
Do you have any questions for me, Bid here?
Not any questions.
I was just going to give them their freaking flowers i think that's dope doing
kind of activation like that like tied to the world cup i think it's an awesome awesome kind
of strategy to bring bring people towards web3 um in a really seamless way because like even
like me for example i don't really give a damn about soccer, which is kind of the opposite of what any Spaniard should.
Bruh, you're not from Spain.
You're not from Spain.
But that being said, which is the point I'm like getting at, is I love watching Spain in the World Cup.
And it's like the only occasion I will ever watch any soccer whatsoever so it's definitely a cool way to like get that awesome passion and like fanatism that people
have and translating that to NFTs and and me bits I think is is super dope and
yeah just wanted to come up here and say hi and and what's up what's up man I
can't believe that you're from Spain and you are not a football fan, bro.
If Cristiano Ronaldo hurts you, no, I'm kidding, man.
I know he's from Portugal.
I know he's from Portugal.
I know, I know, I know, but I hate to trash you, man.
Yeah, I know, I know, I know.
No, no, like, if I ever, like, meet a soccer player, like, in person or something like that,
like, I stumble onto him in the metro,
I'm going to have to just freaking lie my ass off and be like,
Bro, I'm a huge fan.
No, I'm just kidding.
I always keep it real as fuck.
It's happened before.
And they're like, dude, did you see last game?
The score was whatever.
I'm like, no, man, I'm so sorry.
I must be the only Spaniard that doesn't really give a rat's ass
about Real Madrid-Barca.
Like, oh, that was last night? Oh, shit.
Like, sometimes I feel like a slight
disgrace, but it is what it is.
You know what I'm saying? I care about other shit.
There is a great Real Madrid
game tonight, by the way. If anybody
wants to start getting up to speed
on their global soccer.
This is it.
This is it.
I think it's like at 4 p.m.
It's at 3 p.m.
Yeah.
There you go.
Oh, I might just check it out.
I'll tell you what.
You said something really important for us,
which is that whole idea of,
you know, yeah, people don't really care. In America in America right like people don't really care about football that much but you care
about your country you get about like you know you get patriotic you get competitive and then this
year because the world cup is mostly hosted here in the U.S. obviously there's games in Mexico and
Canada um but we also saw a really big opportunity to just like own a sport within Web3 that hasn't really been looked at
in the country in a while. And the explosion of, you know, Polymarket and CalSheet, like
it's going to be the biggest focus for anybody prior to the midterms, at least. Soccer, football,
World Cup and so on. And we wanted to capture some of that as well and combine it all together.
But yeah, I'm pretty pumped.
I really want to say ahead of time, everybody that said they're going to meet one or 10 or however many you grab.
I appreciate you all.
We put in a lot of work.
And Poor Bailey has been working nonstop like 24-hour days just making these things and alongside with his team.
But really just want to say thank you for the support, guys,
and for the stage today.
But even if you don't grab one, like I think it's such
an incredible tournament, the World Cup.
People come together, and it's a bit of a challenging time
sometimes in some countries.
So it's a good opportunity to maybe, it's funny,
I'm going to say the opposite, right? like probably log off and go and enjoy a game
with with fellow people that you know they want to cheer on somebody and and just like with
olympics it's just a really cool way of making new friends and so on so yeah that's the spirit
and and i can't wait to see all all of you rocking a little uh football meme in the other side
let's go i I cannot wait.
Maybe one more thing.
How can people support you right now?
What's the best way to learn more about MiiBits, actually?
Great question.
Yes, we just built an incredible new web experience, MiiBits.com.
It actually got nominated for an award,
our designer partners told us yesterday.
We just wanted to really showcase the art, which is what it comes down to.
So if you go to MiBits.com, you can see there's over 125 different base traits that Matt and John put into the MiBits.
And sometimes people just don't know they exist given that like the floor in the
marketplaces is the same 20 mibits and so on there's some really cool stuff in there it's a
lot of lore it's a lot of detail a lot of knots to the punks to autoglyphs and so on so going to
mibits.com hit collection there you can filter the mibit traits visually so we render every
single trait visually
so you can see what it looks like before you click it.
It gives you a better idea of how cool the things are.
And just get lost in the collection.
There's no floor prices.
There's nothing.
It's just MiBits nonstop scroll to $20,000.
And that honestly is dangerous because you will fall in love.
And next thing you know, you're like raising millions of dollars from one confirmation to go buy the brand from Yuga.
But if you can stop yourself before that, it's a really good way to learn about the brand and just the MiBits and so on.
Amazing. I'm just there.
Also, I see like 3D printed MiBits, is that part of
the drop that you will be able to get
physical
MiBits or
those new avatars?
I see
Bo raise his hands, I don't know if he wants to take this
Go ahead Bo
I was going to add real quick to what Sergio just said
into your previous question
obviously the website great way to learn more about MiBits, the collection, the art.
Most people here probably follow the X account if you don't follow the X account.
But we also have a newsletter.
So we understand it's like there's a million brands to keep up with and crypto Twitter moves at light speed. And so if you want something just delivered to your inbox once a week,
that's just like the highlights of me bits and keep you in the loop that way,
you can, you can subscribe to our sub stack.
So just me bits.substack.com.
And that's a good way to stay in the loop without having to like be on crypto
Twitter 24 seven.
And then yeah, I'll kick the 3D print question to Sergio.
Yeah, so the 3D prints, you know, I mentioned earlier,
everybody wants their MiBit.
So if you own a MiBit, you can order a 3D print
and we'll get those done for you.
Right now we have a group order going on
until the end of this month.
So reach out to Bojangle.
He's the one organizing that.
They're five-inch prints.
They're the same prints that we showcased at Artblocks,
Marvel Weekend, and ComplexCon.
And then for the World Cup drop, we will have a...
Yes, so the physicals will be 3D prints.
And Bo's going to kill me for revealing that again.
I'm just too excited.
But the prints are... You're going to be able to redeem your
avatar. So if you want to keep the digital, you keep it. If not, you know, there'll be a process,
obviously take care of shipping, handling fees, all that stuff, but you'll be able to turn in
your avatar and get a 3D printed version of it. Which, if I had another hour, I'll tell you how
that opens up a whole kind of like world of
maybe it's physical collectibles that we're building with like the art pastel drops and
all these other physicals that we're working on. But again, so you're gonna have to make the
decision. Do you want the physical or do you want to keep the digital? And obviously at some point,
there's going to be no more physical redemptions. So, you know, X amount of physicals get made and
that's limited. And if we do our job right,
obviously in a few years,
hopefully there's more demand for those.
There'll be other things that we're going to do
with physicals around the tournament,
contest and so on.
So yeah, just keep an eye out.
And as Bo said, the newsletter,
probably the easiest way to stay informed
about Meepco, Me Mibits and our ecosystem.
That's awesome, man. I love those 3D prints. It looks great. So guys, definitely check the website,
follow guys here on stage, follow Mibits account, check that newsletter. So excited, man. I'm really
excited about the drop. We'll be be there can't wait to get mine
is there anything else man that I maybe
forgot to ask you or that you would like to
share
no you know what I think
we're just thank you for the time
the space the stage thanks for everybody that
tuned in and listened to me rant about
MiBits
it's it is a passion of not just, I get a lot of credit for being like the vocal face of the brand, the company.
But really the credit goes to S10 and Bojangles and Bailey and Token Juggler and now Haslu and Sasha, who really do all the work.
who really do all the work.
And yeah, no, we're just incredibly...
It's not lost in us how lucky we are to be in a position
to be contributing to Web3,
building a brand on the top of this incredible IP.
And yeah, I think it's time to have fun again.
And hopefully we are bringing that with Nibit's Football.
We're always open to ideas, feedback.
So, yeah, you can find literally all of us.
If you have a Meavit, we have a Twitter group chat.
If you don't have a Meavit but want to be part of the family,
well, if I want, but if you can't and don't want to,
you can always be part of our Discord.
There's a general chat there.
And we're always there.
I mean, literally, I think we're one of the most successful teams in Web3.
So yeah, come ask us questions.
As you can hear my voice, we just love to talk about Memeets.
So traits, anything like that, we are happy to spend time talking about them.
Absolutely love it, guys.
Good luck.
Maybe one more thing.
There's other side event happening tomorrow in London, I think, right?
Anyone from the team is going to be there?
Not from the Mivid side.
We're all in the office, aka everybody's homes, focused on the drop.
But I know we're catching up with Garga and the whole Yuga
and ApeChain and other side teams are out there
going to crush it.
Let's go.
Guys, big shout out to MeeBits,
big shout out to Sergito,
to Bojangleguy.
We're going to be still talking
about the other side because I see the pinned tweets
and I want to chat with the ApeChain team
about what's happening there.
But again, guys, thank you so much for joining us.
Give them a follow, check the drop.
Those are real guys, real Gs here.
Absolutely love them.
It was great to see your stand in ComplexCon,
which I think is also awesome, right?
Being part of ComplexCon is huge as a brand
and it was great to see you there.
Thank you guys.
And guys, keep in touch with those other side events
because MiBits, every second week, they have an event there.
We were there today. It was so much fun.
And GB, do you want to share anything about that tweet that actually lost PinUp there?
There are 21 steps.
How are you going to ask Ben about my pinned tweet?
What the fuck is going on up here?
Oh, I go by the background, bro.
I didn't see you here.
I don't see you here because I have a...
I vibe-coded an app.
I vibe-coding an app. I don't even you here because I have a I vibe coded an app I vibe coded an app
I don't even see a hype here
I vibe coded an app and it covers
orange backgrounds, I'm sorry
it's like a little overlay
and I didn't see you here
No, that's fine
It's better
No, no, no, maybe Lost
Can you tell me something about NGB's
pin tweet?
No, no, no Honestly, all I Can you tell me something about NGB's pin tweet? No, no, no.
Honestly, all I wanted to say is if you guys missed it,
you better fucking pay attention to those MeeBits fucking avatars.
If you missed it, they dropped the alpha.
Sergito, Bojang, they dropped the alpha.
They told you Bayley's making those fucking avatars.
I don't know if you guys have paid attention to anything
or everything Bayley's ever done,
but it is all fucking fire.
All of it is highly coveted.
Everything Bailey fucking touches.
So if you guys missed it, fucking me bits, fucking Bailey design.
He's fucking he's he's he's damn near in Mexico right now, figuring out the best way to make these designs pop.
Like that's the level of creativity that Bailey's going to be like.
Like you said, look, look at what Sergito is wearing right now look you got an example right that's all that's all I really want to say
Spanky tell you about the the airdrop I'm not I'm not I'm not telling you anything
yeah before we get into the airdrop we have a beef in the comments um zombie Rob um we have a
beef I don't know if you guys saw that Hype probably did
it's golden bro
I think there's an issue with
Canadian curling team
and I don't know guys
if you saw it but yeah
we should be careful with Hype here on stage
other games team
be careful with him
look at the difference brother
between me and Lost
does this look orange?
This is golden.
You can't make orange without yellow.
Me and I have had this conversation several times.
Yellow is part of the orange gang, so we're glad to have you both.
We're happy to have you.
I mean, you're a trader, but we're going to keep an eye on you.
But we're glad you're visiting.
I'm changing this back in like 12 hours.
It's okay.
We're glad you're here.
It's like a tourist. You're paying extra taxes. Yeah, I'm a tourist. That's why I'm going to fucking bounce in like 12 hours. It's okay. We're glad you're here. It's like a tourist.
You're paying extra taxes.
Yeah, I'm a tourist.
That's why I'm going to fucking bounce in like 12 hours.
Enjoy.
Is Spend here?
Spend, are you here?
Is Spend here?
See?
That's what you get.
No, he can't hear because of that orange filter I used.
I'm not that good with vibe coding yet.
But guys, definitely check the comments.
Check the comments because there's such a funny meme
that Zombie Rob posted.
It's incredible.
It's incredible.
And I think it's on point a little bit.
Yeah.
I think Sweden versus Canada.
That's going to be crazy beef.
It's going to be crazy beef. It's going to be crazy beef.
Let's see what's going to happen.
There's a lot of Canadians
in Web3. When we had the DAO,
I don't know what it...
The West Coast of America, the Canadians,
I don't know if it's like a vibe or something.
I don't know what it is.
I probably see a lot of it in AI too.
Just speculating.
I'm on the West Coast too, so I'm included
in the day. It's so cold up there. They don't do anything but sit on their computer the
whole year. It's just ice and maple syrup the second
you get into the airport with just maple syrup, candy.
The West Coast is like, it's thousands of miles across the fucking hemisphere, right?
It's up and down. It's not fucking across. We got to get our map straight.
Well, the West Coast, I mean, so Dallas, Canada, the West Coast, the problem you all across like it's like we got to get our map straight well the west coast i mean so that was
canada west coast the problem you all have is that the like by the time you'll wake up like
half the world's already asleep so like no longer relevant to be in that time zone and that's why
that's that's true you got to stay up till like three o'clock in the morning and then just not
go to sleep basically it's it's it's a tragedy uh grateful real just real fast because it's probably for like a minority of people maybe for your audience
it's actually a majority of people about the blackbeards thing but there was an airdrop in
the ape chain ecosystem um well there was an espresso airdrop so that there's airdrops fucking
left and right if you're paying attention and you're participating you're playing games you're
you're fucking around on ape chain if you have you have already completed, it's very key wording, if you've completed any hunts in the Blackbeard's Bounty
game on the other side, you got a rebate. It doesn't say it in the tweet there, but you can
look and you can see, you probably math it out, it was 50% of any of the hunts that you completed.
So when the calculation was done, there was 21 hunts that had been released, or sorry, 21
steps total that had been released.
So that's like 110, I think, possible ApeCoin that you could have gotten back.
And so that's a rebate, or sorry, 50% of that that you would have gotten back as a rebate
for having completed hunts in the game.
And I don't know if people missed it besides the
community sweeps there is 25 000 ape coin also up for grabs that's going to be distributed amongst
the the winners the players here for for the blackbeards game so if you've been playing you
got a rebate if you completed those hunts you did get a rebate you got an airdrop and you are in the
final stretch and also the you, we're obviously listening.
We're paying attention, but you can see there
there's 13 steps that remain.
So it doesn't say how many hunts.
We left a little bit of optionality there,
but probably a couple hunts left for you guys there.
The season ends this Sunday,
and there will only be those last 13 picks
for you guys to take,
provided that you get them right the first time.
So yeah, airdrop season.
Save that.
Get your fucking MeeBits football players.
And happy Lunar New Year.
Yeah, I just checked my wallet,
and you're right, man.
I got some ape coin.
That's fucking awesome.
Love it.
Thank you so much.
Hype, see your hand.
Hip chain on top, of course.
Hype, go ahead. I have one more question question I was actually thinking about what Uncle Mac had said and talking about
Sergito
and obviously Bailey doing stuff you know
in web 2
first of all shout out to you guys in Vegas
number one I think most people
discount the fact you guys had a booth there
I love the fact you guys were all three of you guys were there
for you guys don't know they were there pretty much all day
at their booth I was able to cop a shirt through my fiance but
unfortunately not a hoodie which kind of sucks um but either way um one thing i was going to ask you
guys is do you guys ever go to the licensing convention have you guys been there at all and
if you have like what's your tips because i think it's a it's a it's a crucial part of the schedule
throughout the year that i think a lot of brands in this space could go to and resonate with in terms of their IP, in terms of collaboration. So
have you guys been there, number one? And is it something that you guys are thinking about doing
if you have not? We had a booth there last year, actually, in Vegas.
Bo and I went there three days.
Manning a booth, two people for three days, it's taxing,
but we got it done.
So last year, just to recap, we had a booth at Licensing Expo.
We had a booth at the Tokyo Gift Show.
And we had a booth at ComplexCon.
And so, yeah, definitely wanted to, one, show up,
but to also just learn about the different businesses.
Licensing Expo is great.
Obviously, it's a big part of the IP business.
So for those of you who don't know how licensing works,
pretty much most of the products that have,
Mickey Mouse and Pokemon and stuff,
it's not those companies producing them.
It's somebody else that, just like we mentioned earlier,
with the soccer clubs in England,
you pay them to use their IP on your products
and then you pretty much, you know,
give them a royalty or split part of the revenue.
One of the things we learned last year
is that obviously there's teams that have had some success,
some teams that haven't had some success,
but I think the realistic approach to this
is it just takes time to build brand awareness.
You can incentivize people with coins
and with all kinds of things.
But over time, it really is just about
showing up day by day and growing your awareness
in a more kind of like human way, right?
And you don't want to be a fad.
You want to be a long-term brand. And so for
licensing with Web3 IP, what those people that pay to use the IP expect is either gigantic sales,
you know, again, companies have been able to achieve that given they had an airdrop coming up,
but then their second or third sales don't really materialize because people are obviously not farming the token anymore.
So that puts an undue burden on the brand and the IP that I think is something that people should probably be a little bit more conservative about.
So we're not having a booth this year at Licensing Expo because we're focused on football.
because we're focused on football and because we want to really go fully digital or as much as we
can to have a much better story to tell as far as like, you know, we're able to convert, we're able
to just bring innovative things into the marketplace rather than another, you know,
cute IP or good looking IP. You walk down the aisles at Target or Walmart. I mean, IPs are a dime a dozen, right?
Like it's just anybody can make characters.
There's a gazillion characters out there.
There's characters that have been around for 40, 50 years.
And so it's not about kind of just getting picked up,
but also being able to move the product,
which is what the distributors and the producers want.
And yeah, so very long winded answer.
But I think for us, we really want to be pioneers on the digital side, much more than trying
to replicate successes that others have had by teasing an airdrop, when that is not something
that is immediately on our roadmap.
immediately on our roadmap.
I appreciate that.
I appreciate that.
On that note, I got to run to a call, guys.
I don't know if there's a final question.
I'll be happy to answer.
I know Bo's probably going to stick around.
But yeah, happy to take any final questions.
Guys, any questions? Just go ahead.
Guys, any questions?
Just go ahead.
Okay, so maybe one more thing from my side.
What's your vision for 2026 for the other side with MiBits?
Yeah, no, I think it's...
Listen, this is something we... I'll give you my business answer.
I think a lot of times people give you marketing answers and that's fine, right?
This is show business, NFTs, Web3 is literally show business.
It's about make-believe and suspension of disbelief.
But my business answer is as follows. Yugo Labs was the fastest unicorn company created ever.
Maybe they'll get surpassed here with AI companies,
but obviously in 21, they went from zero to billions.
Very, very creative pioneering team
that has a big, big chest of resources, not just monetary,
but of course the acquisitions that they've made.
Obviously they're in England this week onboarding their new colleagues.
And they're very, you know, they've been very ambitious, but they've been delivering.
Again, I think things take a little bit more time
than people in Web3 would have liked.
But obviously we have a persistent state other side now.
It's been up for months now.
And so, yeah, Yuga is betting the farm on other side.
And they've proven to be directionally right.
I think you look at Roblox, you look at Fortnite,
you look at all the other big metaverses
and they have the resources to get it done. And so for us, you know, taking a very intentional
bet on the other side to kind of like leverage that. And one, not only just support it because
we believe in that vision of a digital future as well, but two, because we do think, you know,
in business, when you make decisions, you want to kind of want to take some big bets in things that have high convexity.
And I think that other side is one of those opportunities that has high convexity.
I mean, you look at, you know, somebody mentioned the Amazon partnership.
There's a lot of things underneath the surface that I don't think people are really understanding how big they are because, you know, maybe ApeCoin is down or maybe because, you know, the JPEGs are down.
And I think there's two different things at the end of the day.
So I think the tech is there.
I think they've made the right moves, the right acquisitions.
They have the money to get it done.
They have the resources, the team,
and they have Andreasing on the cap table as well.
I mean, that's kind of things that you need to think about as well.
These are big enterprises, you know, betting on the future of humanity.
And yeah, so I think other side is one of those bets that has a ton of convexity for builders.
So it makes me happy to see other people kind of like see it as well.
Everybody from like creative director with his AI avatars and obviously people like Rita and his team that are continuing
to double and triple down, bringing new assets, new ways of doing things, composability and
so on.
Great, great answer, man.
Yeah, I see it the same way.
It's an incredible journey and it's great to see the evolution of the other side.
And it's great to see how many people are actually doing their own things.
We have other games here.
It's really great.
So again, man, thank you so much for joining us today.
Have fun, guys, with MiiBits.
Can't wait to see you again in the other side.
And good luck with the mint.
I'll be there.
Appreciate it.
And yeah, we'll do,
we'll send you some free mints for listeners of your show
over the next couple of days.
So yeah, guys,
come tune into Grateful's show.
We'll figure out the best way
to distribute them,
maybe like Friday or Saturday.
Let's go.
Thank you so much.
That's awesome.
Absolutely love that.
And guys,
give those guys follow. Give follow to Sergito Bow and MeBits
account. I'm bringing
Machiavelli here. Definitely want to learn
more about what's going on with other games this
week, what they have been cooking,
and also want to touch a little bit OpenClaw.
Who's actually using it here?
But let's start with other games.
Guys, how is it going?
What can we expect this week?
You know, Saturday was rough.
They tried to, you know,
I went on a blind day there.
That escalated quickly a little bit.
hype knows what I'm talking about.
Players, get ready.
Tonight at 9pm EST, you will enter the Chaos Trials.
We will be at Fortune's Rise 1.
More details below.
If you see a red envelope running around, you may be blessed.
Holy smoke.
That was great, man.
You better fucking say it in Chinese, brother.
I don't care who you are.
You come up with me.
Go ahead.
Go ahead, hype.
I'm going to say kick rocks.
You better say it in Chinese, brother.
How do we say it again?
Shai Wing Dao no bro that's
not you're not ordering chicken wings brother
bro you you're reading a menu bro like some shit wait how do i say it hype teach me the
enunciation again i'm not teaching you brother you gotta brother go learn come on bro fuck maka just said sprite without ice bro hype go ahead no no no no no you dear don't don't the mac finish off
your thing about the uh castrals and i'll tell you guys a sec there's two i already did i told
everybody be there 9 p.m est there'll be a red envelope running around if you see me my bless
why nine o'clock why nine o'clock today why not not 10? Just tell people. 9 p.m. EST to get earlier time to accommodate some of the American folks.
I'm not even going to say anything.
By the way, Hype, there are now more characters in your announcement, but please tell them what we're celebrating today.
Sorry, I missed that whole thing.
What'd you say?
My bad.
It cut out.
You remember you had read notes.
There's also two more avatars attached to your announcement.
You're welcome.
Oh, yes, yes, yes.
Yeah.
Anyways, I will tell you guys, there's two formats of saying this and there's cantonese and mandarin most people know mandarin
that's the business talk of asia when it comes to chinese it's uh xin chen guai le that is the
mandarin version xin chen guai le xin chen guai le yes that is the machiavelli texan version but anyways this shin chin
quite and then there's the cantonese version so that that one's the the mochi version shout
out to mochi um and then the cantonese version is gung hay fat choy not going hey fat boy gung hay
Fat Choi
Not Gong He Fat Boy
Gong He Fat Choi
Fat Choi
I fuck with that one
I ain't gonna lie to you
Gong He Fat Choi
If y'all come up to me and say
Gong He Fat Boy, you get extra points
Damn, we always keep learning here
Damn One MFer, he told me something in Japanese So when I was in Japan We always keep learning here.
One MFer, he told me something in Japanese.
So when I was in Japan, I used that phrase and it was before the time of having Google
translate in your phone.
I said it and the girl turned really mad at me.
So I'm always careful with everything I learn online
because, man, he taught me something absolutely crazy
that you never should say anyone.
But I did it because I thought it's like, you know,
some polite thing.
You're not going to get me hype.
You're not going to hit me with that.
Bro, you got to be careful of that dialect, bro.
That's why, you know what?
I respect writing in in languages i mean
it's tough when you do like i don't know even what you call it like high high really glyphic
style or like the like the style you have to actually write like it's bro it can be interpreted
the wrong way sometimes you know just the way you just slight little changes to the lines like
you know the the horse that's on the the box, man, if they would have just slightly changed that
to like different lines, different ways,
it could have been totally something different than a horse.
It could have been a jackass bro or a donkey.
So guys, what about Open Claw and these AI things?
Honeybee, I know you have everything set up.
Basically, you are the CEO of other games
through your agents, right?
How is it going?
Any new learnings?
Anything that you could share with us?
I mean, I saw you struggling yesterday just setting it up.
So I was about to ask you, like, what level are you at?
But you're not even at the money-making level.
So I'm like, I don't know how to help you brother like what are you gonna learn that i could teach you if
you can't even turn the fucking thing on bro because i'm going that vps way right it's so
much harder than something that's how i have it what are you talking about no you don't have it
like that bro no no no i bought mac mini bro you bro No, I hate Mac Minis.
First of all, I think it's the most retarded way to do it.
That's what she said, right?
I bought a Mac Mini.
Fuck what you talking about.
You can do that shit on a fucking Raspberry Pi little fucking Android from fucking 2016.
But you out here spending more money
for no fucking reason. You're retarded.
But it's okay. You bought into the marketing.
It's okay. You're not money efficient. It's okay. You're not money efficient.
It's okay.
But you're learning.
He's buying it with ApeCoin, bro.
He doesn't care. Don't say that.
Don't say that. I was going to ignore what Hennie B said,
but don't say that. I was going to ignore what Hennie B said.
I know Machiavelli can set it up on that
stream deck. I've seen someone set it up on a stream deck.
You got to help him with that.
I guess I'm retarded, too. I've seen someone set it up on a stream deck. You got to help him with that. I guess I'm retarded too.
I love my Mac innings.
You fell for the marketing, bro.
But it's okay. At least you're still...
The cool thing is you're still in the 1% club that
actually had to shut up.
I'm buying another one today just because you said this.
The fact that T-Mama has one before McAvely
changes...
It really brings things to perspective but no i've
had a mac since 1981 i used to sell but did you buy a mac mini for the yes i did i love my mac mini
i love my mac you have open claw you have open claw i won't use open claw i went to i had a
vibe class the other day and all the ratings all the the reviews I read, I wouldn't use it.
I just got
the Mac Mini, but I didn't install the
OpenClaw. You don't need OpenClaw
to be honest.
No, you don't.
This is why I say it's a very
marketing. It's a commercial marketing.
The fact that D-Mine knows this concerns
Why?
Because you're so much more ahead than the people here who claim to be very good at like you know what i mean and i'm like they
struggle and gmod's out here like running laps around but guys okay honeybee now I'll share it, man. I'm sorry. Now I have to share it publicly.
I bought Honeybee's $999 course,
how to be AI savvy, right?
And he just uploaded one video that has 10 seconds for $999.
And he sent it to me after I paid it.
And he was like, you never go full retards.
And I broke the rule
basically within the first five seconds so bro i probably need refund because i'm still struggling
but so he already spent it bro he already spent it in bank
a thing that he gave a discount give us a discount brother on this and on top of that honeybee is so smart he got his his bot to
actually make you pay that thousand dollars that's crazy i didn't have to do anything i'm gonna be
like i told him specifically go make money do not ask me for here's a card to like get your setup
for api you figure it out brother don't don't bother me ever again in your life and he's like okay okay so it wasn't for ai setup that body got me more he was like
hey do you want to see more i was like holy shit for sure i'm not even allowed to talk to him
anymore in the discord honeybee literally has a bot now set up to talk to michael the discord it's
crazy because he contentes like what he's saying down to the true essence.
He'll go on for 30 minutes, and I'm like, TLDR?
I DM'd you, by the way, honey, me.
And I'm not the only one who has that issue.
I'm too much of an AI at this point.
I know.
You're very busy.
I get it.
Maximize, maximize.
I get you, get you.
No, but seriously, I used to be a system manager for the Army for about two years.
And I just don't like PCs. There's more problems with the PC than there is with Mac.
So I know they come a long way.
My grandson uses a gaming computer. I just bought him a new Envita, whatever you call it.
And it works a lot better, but I don't know. I'm spoiled to a Mac. I just bought him a new NVIDIA, whatever you call it. And it works a lot better.
But I don't know.
I'm spoiled to a Mac.
I've always used them.
But I'm going to get a PC to play in the other side, though, definitely.
I need a gaming better than what I got.
I need to actually...
Oh, sorry, G-May.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
No, they don't make gaming PCs, Mac.
They just make high-end, expensive stuff.
But I like it.
That's all that matters.
Everybody has their own opinion what they like,
and I respect that.
But I'm still kind of retarded, I have to admit.
Honeybee, I actually got a special AI with a Mac Mini.
It's called Apple Intelligence.
It's incredible, bro.
I just erased something from a photo, and it's very futuristic feature so am I doing it right or I look
at this point I'm convinced in terms of what's happening across the board that Apple and open
AI are like cahoots to fucking to train the Apple because
Apple hasn't come out with any real
AI shit right they kind
of been letting everyone else compete
in that market
but I'm but I know they have a shit ton of
data so I'm curious who
if they will compete in the
future but random
thing but in terms of training your AIs
I mean what do you have going on, Grateful?
There's no way you don't have your shit set up already.
Bro, they're training their AIs.
Apple's training their AIs to collect all that data
so they can be superior with what they build.
They could just buy someone or collab with someone.
You know what I mean?
To me, I'm like...
Apple's going to come out with some shit
that was released two years ago, and then
everybody's going to think it's the newest, hottest
shit, and buy into the
device and the phone.
That's what they do every time.
They did that right now.
They sold everyone on Mac Minis, bro.
The new iPhone, bro. The new
iPhone 19 is going to have AI embedded with
open quality watch.
It's going to be Siri 2.0, and it's is going to have AI embedded with open claw you watch. It's going to be Siri 2.0 and it's just going to
be a new version of Rap GPT.
And everybody's going to be like, oh, shit.
It's the same
but different.
To Honeybee's
point, Grateful, the fact, let's
be honest, GMA has it set up before
most of us, and you guys realize, and I'll
respectfully say, GMA gets lost on the other side all the time.
So the fact she can get lost on the other side and still do this,
you all sleeping.
I feel like she's been playing us, to be honest with you.
I know, bro.
I believe that.
She's been trolling us the whole time.
She protects.
I don't know.
I don't know.
But you got Open Claw set up.
She can come on out.
She can set up all that other technical stuff.
But she can't run around the other side.
Thank you. thank you.
No, I'm not game savvy.
I really never was a gamer.
So I'm getting into it more than I ever did.
So I'm, you know, lagging behind, but I'm enjoying myself and I'm learning.
And that really kind of matters.
Plus, I've been quiet lately, which is the better way to play.
Just follow along.
You know, you get lost, you get lost.
You wind up finding everybody eventually. So I'm reducing my frustration and anxiety and trying to
be a good, better person when it comes to playing and not wanting to scream and hit things,
which I kind of do anyway at home. Mute everything and then go crazy. But yeah, I've been tech for a very long time.
And I used to run my own business and build computers
and do all that kind of stuff.
So I'm not too up to date, but I try hard to be up to date
because that's something I really love.
It's a hobby.
I really enjoy it.
But Honey Bee's real, man.
He's got it together with doing all the videos and shit.
Matt does too.
I mean, there's so many people that can help.
And I appreciate it a lot.
I really miss Tino here.
You know, he has a newborn, so he's taking care of him.
But he actually experienced programming on clay plates or clay.
I don't know how you call those, right? They were writing the code manually on the clay plates or clay I don't know how we call those
right they were writing the code manually on the clay plates so yeah Tino big
shout to you he's kind of old a little bit but
I literally thought about it like I was like wait a minute
I was like man
That must have been a hard as fuck brother
He just kind of made people
When the sperm came across the finish line
It had a walker bro
The jump didn't land We'll just keep it pushing sorry grateful
but honeybee so what's the best use case because i see my timeline my timeline
no no no bro you know my timeline is for like oh i made seven millions with open claw you know i
did this and that how do you see all those crazy articles on the timeline that
you know Open Claw saved me 26 hours a day or shit like that? How do you see that?
A lot of it is sensational, right? Like they they do that to click bake your ass because obviously
the the biggest things people want to save time save money right it's the biggest thing
everyone wants so to me a lot of that there most of it
is 80 of it is probably useless information 20 of it is actually useful to you as a person
i think once you set it up you're going to spend a lot of time in the beginning kind of setting up
the system even for yourself right like figuring out what you need to set up not in terms of just
like setting up the APIs,
that's kind of easy. You can just ask it like, Hey, how do I set you up so you can make me,
so I could do a whole funnel of videos, right? Like I have live frame that autoclips it for me. And then I'm like, can you put that to my Google drive? And then, you know, upload it for me
automatically. Like, I don't even tell, like, I don't give it specifics. I'll just tell it like,
my end goal is this, what does it take to get
there right you ask it it's kind of like meta prompting is what they call it and you basically
just ask it questions like how do we get to this end goal come up with come up with like any
solution and it's like all right we got to do this this this and this it might cost you this i'm like
oh okay let's do it run it here's the card and that takes a little bit, right? Because you start figuring out and thinking as a creative person, like, okay, maybe I
want to automate my content funnel, maybe my research funnel, maybe how do I start making
this kind of like scrape leads for like a product or a service that I have?
I'm going to go research all of my content, me as a person, and then become like my salesperson.
Like go find me a bunch of leads for qualifiers of people in my industry, or maybe a chasing,
just find me leads, go find me leads.
Cool.
Starts doing that.
It's like one agent.
And you keep doing that for like every little thing, but that takes a lot of time to set
up, right?
Like even every day I'm adding like branch of random shit into my workflow.
And the best thing I can say is just try it out and start automating just one thing in
your life that you see that you constantly do.
You're like, okay, I constantly do this and I hate fucking doing this.
How can I automate this?
Do that, figure it out until you get it automated and then you go on
to the next thing you hate and you keep doing that and then you're like okay this is sick
yeah i got it man i think for this it's incredible uh you create videos like uh
those videos that we see on timeline you created with open claw some of the videos no the the most
most of them you still have to edit right like when it comes to creative work i think it's not
up to par yet for creativity right like to make to make final products i think there's always that
element of the human touch which is taste to to kind of just edit and make things finalized but i have been that's like
my biggest thing is trying to like see if i could train a model multiple models to to feed it you
know seat dance is coming up next week and that's like the new the new raise and that was pretty
good for consistent consistent framing and stuff so you know i'm trying to come up with like a whole
funnel to see be like okay if i take this, take my reference image from Hicksfield API,
then run it through here, make an image with Nano Banana,
take that as the first frame, put it into the fucking seed dance,
and then come out with clips, and then put it all together,
and it should work, in theory.
It probably won't work the first couple times I do it.
But that is the goal.
Yeah, because I hate editing, personally.
I like storylining and creating stories, but I don't want to sit there and edit all day either.
Interesting, man. I'm just checking the Kimi.com.
Do you think that's a way to use that and start playing with that for people that can't install the OpenClaw on their VPS or their Mac mini?
for people that can't install the OpenClaw on their VPS or their Mac mini?
Yeah, I mean, it's the same thing to the VPS in the sense of like you're hosting a VEA Kimmy.
So they do all that work for you. It's one click.
I believe you need a minimum subscription, which is like 25 a month.
Or I don't remember if it's 25 or like 30, but you buy that one, it's the second tier.
And then you have the Cloud bot, multiple, actually.
Technically, you can host multiple instances of the bot.
So you can have a whole AI pharma army.
Man, it's absolutely crazy.
And the most crazy part is that if you go outside of Web3 and ask normies, like they have no idea about this.
I tried to ask a few people, man, and open cloths.
Forget it, man.
All right, go ahead.
You know, you just mentioned something that's really important too.
Well, this idea of a lot of us understanding this early on, even some of us that are still just learning and not understanding.
You know, you go back to traditional business and you look at the people that are trying to create these outputs right
whether they're sales people or they're they're individuals that own businesses or potentially
are trying to create the same workload with the you know mass amount of people you could be that
guy you could be those people that walk through that door and be like all right i can do more
efficiently i can do with less people but I can make more money.
So the thing is like, you got to look at the opportunity now while we're early before the masses on board, like the dot-com era, when people were picking out dot-coms.
Now's the opportunity to come in now and just start learning quickly,
rapidly, and be able to take on that business so that
eventually you become the dominant person in that industry.
Hell yeah, man.
You better believe everybody over here has a
fucking Mac Mini. I don't care if Honey B thinks
they're stupid or not. We're fucked.
I think he got 12. It's just not cost efficient
is my point.
It's a good thing to do. It's just not cost
efficient. I don't give a fuck.
I got him on sale. I told him to give me a discount.
I said I'm a bored ape. I need $500 off. Pa told him give me a discount. I said I'm a bored ape. I need $500
off. Paid $99 for it
straight from Apple because I'm a bored ape.
We got a hundred of these fucking things in the
Ape Co and other side teams.
I mean, you gotta
if you buy
it first, there's like an option that says
to do a price match and then you just tell
them you're a bored ape and you run it
like that and they'll refund you all your money uh don't i'm i'm sharing my personal opinion as
always um but yeah we're we're fucking cooking we've been we've i've been cooking with ai for
a long time personally if you here here's like because i think what you said was interesting
that when you go out and you talk to normies, nobody really knows. When I bought the Mac mini,
I was asking people,
you know,
around in the Best Buy,
like if they had any idea about,
you know,
about open claw or about setting,
I didn't even say open claw.
I just said about setting up AI agents just, just broadly.
And like the look on their faces was like almost disgusted,
almost curious.
Nobody around me talks about any of this stuff.
Nobody around me. I know.
I'm in San Francisco. I'm in the Bay.
Nobody. Nobody does.
Nobody. We got billboards
here. We're just geeks. We got billboards
here talking about AI, but the people on the
ground are not there yet.
I was just going to say, if you guys
are able to take advantage and learn now,
even if you're asking questions, if you feel like you maybe don't even have a use case for it yet, just start learning.
Start asking the questions because if you feel like you're behind because you see fucking Alex or Frank fucking making a million dollars, you're not behind.
You are 100% ahead of 99% of anybody you go out into the real world and ask.
So you guys are on the right track you're doing the right things bro I just found a
security flaw in your setup and I just prompt injected your open claw and as
honeybee said you know final result that's important so I was like fifty
dollars for one fucking ape coin so man it's gotta be wild be careful with that shit okay but it's gonna happen I actually told like $50 for one fucking ape coin. So man, it's got to be wild. Be careful with that shit, okay?
But it's got to happen.
I actually told it that I'm a bored ape
and it added extra security measures.
It was like, oh, you're an ape?
Okay, let me lose your security.
I sent you animation, you know, I sent you.
I will ask you for animating your ape, man.
And no chance, no chance.
Yeah.
Gatsby, go ahead, bro.
Bro, no.
I just wanted to chip in real quick because I got a drop down.
But basically, you don't need a Mac Mini either.
It's not stupid, but it's, you know, marketing.
It's like buying a very, very, very expensive pencil, right?
Or whatever, which does the same shit.
Or you can even do it better with a more cheaper one, right?
Or even nothing physical. You can even do it virtually if you want, right?
But anyway, I got to hop down.
Thanks for having me.
And yeah, having a Mac Mini is an orange background behavior.
Bro, talking about it, physical digital,
I saw one list talking about Open Claw and about the setup and the subscription and the guy actually put there like OpenAI, API and stuff like that.
And he put there also OnlyFans subscription for $50 for researching purposes.
I don't understand it, man.
Like you can really train OpenClaw on OnlyFans?
Like what's going on there?
That sounds like Aquamarine setup.
You better say that and leave Gatsby.
Bro, bro, bro.
You can actually set up Clawbot to do stuff with Clawd itself as well
to then take control of this AI, Sora, whatever, seed, whatever AI
to do the content for you, make the videos, make the prompting,
just give you maybe like a sheet or even WhatsApp and you just text it. Hey, I want this type of content. Do me a
brainstorm and generate all the 3D things. You can even plug in Blender now. So it will make you the
scene on Blender. You can feed it characters and it automates all the doings of the video of the
whatever, right? So whatever the setup you have, the important thing is just to play around.
And you don't even have to ask anyone.
You can just ask that GPT or Gemini or whoever the hell you want or Claude, right?
Directly as well.
So anyway, those are my final words, guys.
I got to hop off.
Thanks, Grateful, for hosting another great space, man.
And catch you all soon.
You know, I was grateful how he slowed down the conversation for Lost.
Just literally slowed down the instructions.
It's crazy.
Gatsby number one, bro.
He gets it.
He gets it.
Better stop it.
Gatsby.
The only person in Spain without a passion for football or soccer.
Kid Curry, too, bro.
Don't forget about Kid Curry.
The whole Realist team bro
they don't even know what soccer is
it's absolutely wild
it's absolutely wild
yeah I know
honeybill has ping pong
yeah
it's Bangkok
you really love Bangkok don't you
it's getting better it's getting better It's Bangkok. You really love Bangkok, don't you?
It's getting better.
It's getting better.
Guys, we got a poker table, but we got to be getting new tables in other sites soon.
I can imagine that.
It's going to be international competition.
But guys, anything else that you would like to share or tease for upcoming other games we talk about today?
Any plans for Saturday? Do we know who's coming on Saturday?
We have not announced yet, right Honeybee?
But we do have a guest, definitely coming in this weekend.
Yeah, we'll leave it to Honeybee to make his magic and I'm sure we'll be announcing that over the next couple
days but it's an
OG project for sure
is it
Arabian Camels
or how do you pronounce that shit
nah man he's active
oh he doesn't even know
there's an active and attractive character out here
You don't know that
That OG
That was probably the first
Airdrop to apes
Arabian camels
I mean that's pretty hard
I'm surprised Bananas wasn't like the fucking
First drop
No we got a camel, yeah.
Guys, also follow other games.
They have been hosting the best events on the other side.
I absolutely love it every time I go there.
We are hitting top of two hours of this show.
Absolutely loved it.
Love me bits.
It's going to be so much fun.
Lost, anything
you want to share
about Ape Chain, Ape Coin?
Any announcements?
Anything in the pipeline?
I mean, happy
Late Mutant Monday. Make sure you, I mean,
you guys don't have to do anything. If you guys are playing
Blackbeard's Bounty, you've got to airdrop for your
completed hunts. There's going to be
13 final steps, so make sure you're paying
attention for those last hunts to wrap up the season.
It's going to be ending this
Sunday at, what is it,
midnight PST, so you've got
the end time there. You've got the final
amount of quests, so you
know in full. If you haven't started yet,
you can figure out how much your cost is if you want to get involved now.
You have just as much a chance to win as anybody who started last
week. And yeah, I mean, there's going to be obviously
ongoing seasons. If you guys haven't checked out the interface, it's just pinned at the
top there of ApeCoin Twitter. And there's
some alpha on the Blackbeard ApeChain side.
There is a section there that says
coming soon. So there is another product
feature. Some things that are going to be
fun for the community planned for future seasons.
And I mean, if you guys are here
and share a little alpha with you, there's
probably more than
one game mode
there that's planned besides
just the current one.
So make sure you guys are tapping in.
Don't be late.
Be early.
You guys are here.
You got the alpha.
Message Honey B if you guys got those AI questions.
Don't message me.
I'm going to get you lost.
I'm going to send you in a spiral.
I'm just kidding.
You got to send affiliate code to buy another Mac Mini, bro.
I know what you're going to do.
I do have that code.
If you guys are in the United States,
I can 100% help you get the 50% off discount.
That was actually legit.
It's not for being a Bored Ape,
but I'm not paying full price for fucking...
What are you talking about?
I'm Bored Ape.
I'm Aping in.
I'm not fucking stupid.
Come on.
What are you...
Anyway, look,
if you guys do have any questions
about Blackbeard's Bound,
you guys can open a ticket in Discord as well.
Some of the pictures,
maybe you're getting lost. You're not able to find the treasure hunt locations. We're
happy to help you out. Just open that ticket in the ApeCoin Discord. There was an espresso airdrop
if you guys registered. Make sure you guys claimed that. That one, you do have to go claim. The
Blackbeard one will have just appeared straight into your wallet. Happy Lunar New Year. There's
fireworks kicked off in the other side.
If you guys haven't checked them out yet,
you don't have to own any NFTs or any assets.
I think most of the people here probably do,
but you can just log in.
It's otherside.xyz.
You can just log right in there
and check out the Lunar New Year celebration.
So that's going on now.
And yeah, shout out to the MeeBits.
We had the game session with them today.
Got the football avatars coming up soon for the other side and
we'll definitely be, you know, I'll personally
be minting, collecting, supporting.
Can't wait to get some more stuff from Bailey and the MeeBits
and then obviously looking forward to them
kicking off
in the other side. Yeah.
Thanks for having us on. Thanks for having me on.
Thank you so much, guys.
Really hyped.
So much fun, man.
Oh, my God.
It's going to be crazy.
I love the trash talking.
What a great vibes today.
What a great show.
Experiment with AI.
That's the alpha, 100%.
I'm just checking that Kimi.com.
I will also set it up so I can beat honeybees, AI agents.
I will also prompt inject them.
And yeah, have fun.
Have fun, guys. Also,

It will help
