share off the space you know pop up if you don't request to speak and join the conversation man
just don't have the purple the purple uh tag on your name and and just chill and not join the
conversation you know come on let's speak up let's see what everybody's getting into let's
hear how everybody's week has been what you excited about what you pissed about you know how how is your
portfolio doing what do you feel like the club should be doing better like let you know speak
your mind let us know man that's what we're here for yo also the thing i want to know is what are
you building with ai lately what's what's your bot doing did anyone infiltrate and give uh
your bot doing did anyone infiltrate and give uh access to their ape or mutant to a bot yet i'm
i'm i feel like spend probably already did uh i want to talk to loss a little bit about what's
going on with ape chain and all that later but dude it's been a hell of a week illa before we
even get into it dupes i loved your point earlier it'll be dope to have some music uh different
than lo-fi in here lo-fi's. I'm sure it'll come in time.
Illa, we've been talking with them forever about music from the Chupac,
so I have no doubt in my mind with the new team that we got,
we're going to see a lot of cool changes happening.
See everyone's working already.
Came in here, Illa, what'd you have on? A little too short?
Yes, indeed. Yes, indeed. Some too short. I popped into the nexus and um before i came in here
and i seen off in the distance there's a bunch of people so i run over there and it's just a gang of
apes having a twerk off i'm like but it was dead silent i'm like man come on so i put on the too
short and then as time started getting closer to have the uh meet at
clubhouse i'm like fuck it i'm gonna dip out my job is done here hopefully i'll play some music
y'all come over to the clubhouse but i'm gonna go to the clubhouse play some shit he's like that's
my gift to you and goodbye dude i can't wait it'll be so we can get some some good beats on on the
jukebox or just in general in here there's been a lot of advancements i know
we played poker last week that's getting fun um shout out to sean running down uh other spaces
fm today i listened to the the show as much as i can so much knowledge tropical doing a lot i know
there's some other people i'm missing right now directive creator dropping mml knowledge like
you know he's been dying to for the last year.
I'm stoked to see all that MML stuff.
The sideload does objects
who doesn't know Dadoopes, you want to tell us what the sideload
thing to happen to people like me who don't
code or anything. you just upload a
few pictures and it well it creates an avatar or now an object an asset um that turns into an mml
file that you can drop into the world at some point and like the it's it's pretty freaking accurate especially for avatars like i've gotten most of
mine like done in like one or two generations so it's pretty good and it rigs the bones for you
although the other side i think breaks the legs on some but you know small details
it's the small details that add up to the the big movements to the big milestones
the devil the devil's in the details man yeah but it's like it's pretty like amazing for what
it is because it takes just a regular 2d picture creates a 3d image then renders that into a full ass like avatar
asset rigs it for you so for like if you don't have all those like skills it can do it fairly
quick and it's really not that expensive like for what he's charging it's less than two dollars
really per like an avatar because he gives you like a free tweak.
So like he gives you the ability to host your files for you.
So it's pretty like pretty good for like a newbie who's like doesn't have too much of a clue, you know.
I think that's the benefit of this community, man man is there's so many people creating amazing
tools right now and if we don't have the the runway to learn something from scratch we got
homies here that'll help you along the way i know we got mm walk up here hey guys i'm just adding
people randomly so if you want to come up talk about anything you're building anything you want
to talk about this is your time this is this is our club time to just hang out and chop it up uh a lot of people joining us right now love to see it can't wait to talk to spend and uh
and uh lost later about a point i feel like something's uh gonna be cooking up that's
important to hear about but anyways let's let's keep going illa
yeah i love what the dude was talking about man like the more um i think that that's our that's
our competitive advantage right now is having members of the club that are just providing
everyone else with these tools man like this shit is incredible more and more and more people are
going to be especially in the bear market like other side is going to start to get really populated because we're not going anywhere obviously you know once you're in
crypto you're stuck because you know there's an another wave of insanity coming we've had waves
of insanity inside of the bear market inside the bull market i feel like the next this is something that I really think for real the next
wave of meme coins won't look like just like they say the NFTs the next wave of NFTs won't look like
the last I'd say the next wave of meme coins won't look like the last and I feel like people are
gonna be launching meeting coins inside of the other side like tied to experiences mark my words that's gonna be the fucking alpha
i can't wait man well someone do a time stamp we'll look back and see
it's there's a lot of stuff man we couldn't even predict that's happening right now with all those
new folks being added to the team i i really could imagine a lot of things are gonna start
to pick up steam real real quick there's just you know there's something kind of different in
the air right now i don't know if you guys feel it but it feels like a positive energy a lot of new apes on the timeline a lot of
new apes and mutants joining lately um shout out to lost and welcome apes and marav and and dort
all the folks holding it down uh you know doing all the tutorials about not getting scammed and
and new apes or new people in general, the space
try to trick you, try to take your, your prize valuable ape assets.
So shout out to the community.
I love welcome apes new website.
If you didn't check it out, go ahead and do it.
It's a, it's on the board, a yacht club page somewhere on there where you tweeted it, but
a new website is really dope with their, their welcome package.
Now that they're offering.
Something interesting that they're doing in Miami. Shout out Miami always trying to be,
you know, future facing. This guy Jeff Bezos is, I don't know if y'all saw it, he made a post saying
like he feels AI should be used to approve Miami building permits in 10 seconds.
That Miami should have an AI application that reads your building permit
and should give you a yes or no in 10 seconds.
Why does it take months and months and months to get a building permit?
It doesn't make any sense.
I might be new to Miami, but I feel like that has to do something with done to have a marriage i'm going to be uh
have a marriage made in heaven and uh i feel like we're super early on both definitely early
as fuck on nfts and now we're early again on ai so i've definitely been getting down on on ai man
shout out to baron for for help me uh two weeks hey, man, this is what I've been doing. This is what I've been using.
And boy, I've been off and running, man.
So if you're in the club and you're not
I suggest you start getting to it.
one of the things. This club is filled with
early adopters of all sorts of
technology in so many different ways.
So we all put each other on. Real quick, shout
board cuban i heard it's 305 day and they had a grand opening today for their third location
uh i don't know if you got to stop by yet illa or if it's close to you but i saw roxel posted
that he went uh i love seeing the stores like that expanding with their ip but man i haven't
made it out there has anyone ever made it to to board Cuban? I see it on the timeline.
I was planning to go, and then I had to do an emergency trip up to Philadelphia to Vincent so i am up in the cold but i will be heading uh and stopping and patronizing
um the amazing establishment when i return home and happy 305 dates to all my to all the homies
Didn't it launch like six minutes ago? 305 on 3.05?
Yo, what is this about the Pudgy Penguins getting sued for a trademark infringement by the Pay Penguin brand?
Like, what is happening right now?
Damn, son. Damn, son. What is happening right now?
The world is crazy in general,
but luckily we have this clubhouse and this metaverse we can all hang out with.
It's crazy out there, man.
But what are you guys building in here?
Anyone want to come talk about their project
that they've been working on?
Anything we should know about?
Dupes, I know we got other balls all the time.
Other games, I believe there's something coming this weekend.
I want to hear about the MML experience from anyone who's been able to do it.
I think that's going to be more lost in NGB.
I think Figgy just requested, so let's get him up.
Yo, what's good? perfect yo what's good can you hear me welcome yeah yeah we see you back there nice what up it's just everybody yeah we um we had a couple of updates on Other Side this week.
We were talking about it for a while.
It was making sure that we're able to bring that AI story into what we do.
And I thought it was pretty interesting, Karen, the way that you were talking about it.
Because, you know, even when I go into, like, LA, I'm from LA, so I go to the meetup still about, like's happening whatever's new go to open claw meetup I'll still see a bunch of bored apes at like the open claw meetup I think
apes like by definition they ape into something like super early like they get into it and then
that's kind of what I how I build community out here that's what drew me to the club
and so I really do think attaching
what whatever we're doing to something that has as much momentum as ai but like doing it in a way
that makes sense for our world too like just doing it for the sake of doing it doesn't really make
sense but i've been pretty impressed with like what people are vibe coding and like the user
interface isn't that great yet it's only going to get better but we put together kind of like a minimum version of it and released it yesterday and there's been
so many people getting very creative if you don't have access to it um and you want access to being
able to build things uh just go onto the discord for other side and uh fill out a ticket we're just trying to like
funnel people through to make sure that we're scaling it properly otherwise we would just open
it up like super wide but it's still like in test phase we won't really like block people from
getting it but there are like man when we when we opened it up we actually hit the maximum amount
of like discord tickets like instantly like
a lot of people there's a lot of demand for wanting to like do vibe coding stuff and if you
haven't done it it's basically like you can prompt it like you would with you know like a chat gpt or
a clog or something like that and you take that snippet of code and we actually run that code
in other side and it's in the form of like 3d objects so
you see somebody had like a coliseum somebody built like a movie theater somebody built a
strip club like it's just whatever you want to build like you can build it here so that was a
pretty interesting thing to roll out i think from a strategic point of view it's really important to do stuff like that because you know i mean it's almost a over a year
ago now uh eliza was the first wave of things that came out that were like these agents that
you could like tap llms to but they could do more than that they could like hook up to your twitter
they could hook up to your email and then open claw is actually no not really different from
eliza it's just like it came out right when opus 4.5 came out, which is a model.
It's a really strong model.
And I think because a product is attached to the advancements of what's happening in LLMs,
when those LLMs leapfrog, the product leapfrogs too.
So you can imagine if we're attaching those kind of builder tools to natural language,
to inference models, then when those models get really good, so does other side with it.
So I think that's a really important aspect to this. It's like, where are you going to bet
over the next year? And we're trying to make it so that like the development of the product
other side is being catapulted forward by all of the capex that's being dumped into like AI right now around the world.
Like nobody has seen the level of like capital investment that is happening in the AI industry.
People still spending hundreds of billions, if not trillions of dollars on data centers and electricity.
Like we get to basically attach our product to that velocity.
So it was cool to see that ship and
then next week we're also gonna be shipping on uh thursday the next update for other side we should
have a new challenge in it new quests in it um and then we're also aiming to ship an agent api
with it as well and there's some cool tech stuff around that agent api i think if people have, you know, their open clause setups, they're going to be able to
attach it to this agent API and do some really cool things like get a lot of rich data from
other side to help inform, you know, what their agent's going to do.
So yeah, there's a lot happening in the world of other side, but I know this is also meet
And that's a cool thing too because we've been um diving
really deep in the byc and making sure that like we're laying out the next foundations for byc
2026 and we're reflecting on you know where we've been but we're also planning for the future a lot
um this week i mean the team has been working deeply on it pretty much all year but we should have some pretty exciting updates
for you in a second so forward to going through those updates with you um it's good to connect
with everybody you know on a weekly basis i think it's just good to stay in touch about like
what it is the team is doing if there's any questions we can try to answer them
uh get the knowledge out there and you know you know, appreciate you, Baron and Illa, for always hosting this stuff and making sure that people know what's going on.
So, what's up, everybody? Good to see all you apes.
Another great day on the other side.
Dude, you just dropped so much knowledge right there.
I was so curious about the mml world and how people join
and all that and i'm really just curious like when that becomes something everyone can access but
sometimes we just got to wait for good things to happen and let it be built in public and
right in front of us like you guys are doing all the time i love it
yeah everybody should be able to access it if you go to other side on xyz slash os vibe maker like
you should be able to access it but if you want the role where you actually can place mml objects
in the world you just got to sign up through discord and then just another thing just to get
the facts out there uh we have a limit right now of like 100 objects in the world um so we can
clean it up a little bit if it gets too crazy,
but like a hundred objects is a lot
because we're trying to test where that ceiling is
because like, you know, one object isn't the same
One could be way more complex than the other,
but there is like a limit to how many like polygons
So we're just trying to find the right balance,
but it is a good way for people to be able to connect and build and express their ideas or their communities
on other sides so yeah be sure to make it out there if you can't place anything go on discord
fill out a ticket and they should be able to grant you access to it
i was gonna say figgy with no spoilers uh where do you where do you see this in a year?
Now that we've got the cheat code, because now we've got so much firepower internally
under the hood, and now we have AI at our fingertips, where do you see this in a year?
Yeah, there's a couple different things that we need to do at the same time.
So, like, obviously the thing that we were pushing,
the thing that I said at 8Fest was around the clear comp for us.
Like, when I look around, when I look at where this platform is headed,
the velocity it's headed,
there are juggernaut incumbents in the space,
like a Roblox, like a minecraft like a fortnite that have not
been disrupted literally in decades and i think that there are builders there there are um users
that are interested in something new and i think we can be a new place for that but it is kind of
discovering okay at what level at what level does that UGC take place?
Like, when does user-generated content take place?
I was actually talking to a friend of mine who's a developer on Roblox.
And one thing she said is, so she's got like a fashion game on Roblox and does very well.
But she was saying, yeah, we put AI in, right?
Like, we have a prompt that's in there.
And you can design whatever clothing you
want because like there's this romantic idea of like everybody wants to be a designer
but honestly on a lot of these platforms when you look at it like over 99 of the users on instagram
they're not necessarily creators they're just people that want to like experience things right
and so you have to find the right level of interaction because like for
some people seeing that prompt is really daunting like maybe for a lot of people in this room you'd
be like oh okay like a prompt i know how to do this i'm really into chat gpt or claude
so i feel comfortable prompting my way to something cool but in that fashion game for instance
with a prompt it's it's like a blank piece of paper.
For a lot of regular people, that is a daunting thing.
Like, they don't really know where to begin.
And above that, if they were to install, like, here's a red dress, a blue dress, and a green dress,
and you can kind of, like, drag and drop, and it'll make different designs of that red dress, but it's a red dress.
That button gets 98% more usage.
Like, 98 to 2 is the ratio
of people that are generating content
with, like, preset templates.
And so there's some discovery here
that we have to do where it's like,
cool, right now you can go on the ODK
and you can get the full power of Unreal Engine
and you've got developers like Command Line
the return of bathroom blitz new upgraded it should be really cool there's some new maps that
are going to show up i won't give too much away but like bathroom blitz is coming back next week
on next thursday and that was built on the odk but not everybody wants to go all the way down to
the metal to be able to build in unreal the same way not everybody wants to go all the way down to the metal to be able to build in unreal the same
way not everybody wants to go down to a prompt so what we have to do is get closer and closer to the
format that people actually want to build it in and from what we're seeing with mml a lot of people
are pretty comfortable with prompts right so we have to fuse that with also this other deed story
that's happening the other side resource game that's happening make sure that all of those roads connect and that when we deliver something you'll see at the end of
the month we're working on an experience that combines a couple different ideas that each
thing that we ship is actually like knocking on three or four really important pillars at the same
time and so i'm i'm gonna be really interested in showing
you guys how that stuff connects together but that's what we're working
on so there's basically like the update that we had on Tuesday there's the
update that we're doing next Thursday and then we've got one more update at
the end of March that's happening which starts to fuse a couple different ideas
together I still think you know your question, was like, where are we a year from now? I honestly think like we can get really crispy and adventurous,
even on like three month timelines. Like we don't need to wait for like, where are we going to be a
year from now? I think there's interesting stuff happening like three months from now,
that now that we have the team that just joined us two weeks ago, and we're like,
picking up the pace, we can cover a lot of ground in a way no one else can.
So that's what I'm super excited about. I hope you guys are excited to see some of these developments too.
Oh man, that answer was perfection, Brother Piggy.
Yeah, I'm bullish as fuck. Instead of thinking about in 365 days,
think about three-month timelines about the things that will be dropping inside of other side.
I mean, that's what can happen
when you got all this firepower under the hood, man.
That's what I'm talking about.
Anyone else got any questions for Figgy, man,
while he's up here? Don't be shy can i just can i just say something um my daughter she also used to
design for roblox she uh designed clothes and she was hired by lots of people on roblox
but the difference is um with other side i feel it's just going to be the fashion is going to be so much more in the present rather than like, you know, pixelated or whatever. It's so much more
cooler here. So I don't, I feel that we're really going to get people coming over to
us quite quickly once they see what we're about and what we can achieve as designers
Yeah, 100%. By the way, it was so great to meet you in person the one
but all the artwork you're doing in real life is like really cool it adds
to the space so it was good to see you a couple weeks ago um you're gonna see an update in march
that empowers people just like your daughter like we are getting to the point you know when when you
actually look at the adoption that's been happening we've got a couple people making
really interesting games on the odk so that's one layer that's like the most intense layer
and then above that you've got mml which is another layer of creation but the one that's
actually like objectively caught the most traction in Other Side is avatars.
Like avatars are also a UGC layer and we have over half a million avatars available on Other Side.
And we also have, I think it's around 200 communities now in Other Side.
I think that form of self-expression is like one layer but then
there's other layers that we've been working to with like the voyager system for instance
that we're going to be rolling out in march and i think that is the type of system that
as we develop more and more features there's going to be more and more
kind of retention and stickiness on the platform for newcomers so that's totally the goal right
now is just like continuing building this network of things
that tinkers can play with,
that people who want to create things can play with.
And it's like all levels of creation, right?
So that's really what we're working towards.
And I don't want to paint that off as some faraway thing.
Like that stuff that's going to start happening this month.
Thank you, Figgy. way thing like that stuff that's going to start happening this month uh thank you figgy and it was so lovely to meet you too and i just want to say
yeah eventually there's going to be so much room for everybody like people don't realize how big
it's going to get i don't think and um that's why like this is just the beginning like you say and yeah thanks thanks for answering my
question as well yo can I ask a question for Figgy real quick yeah let's go let's go come on
yo yo yeah so really cool public MML world it's it's been quite a quite a treat to see people
jump in and share their creations and
You know see others enjoy them just like really instantly in real time. It's it's it's like
You know with the ODK out, you know, we know that's like you said
It's kind of more of a premier premium package thing, and it's like a larger thing to build towards it does take more time because it's more like
take more time because it's more like traditional game development.
traditional game development, but with this setup
But with this setup, you know, we're seeing people drop stuff like within minutes, you
know, just like by coding something and then putting it out there.
I'm wondering, is there maybe a point in time where there would be multiple of these public
And I guess what I'm alluding to is like, would it be possible at some point for someone
to like host their own public MML world for like their own events, just to kind of like be able to drop in something, you know, for a catered experience for like an event or something and kind of have like a private session for themselves.
thinking along terms of that of like at some point later to kind of have like a to be able to kind of
open up your own private MML world to like quickly drop something for people to stop by for like your
own personal event yeah that's definitely something I mean I think it's pretty clear that like what we
are testing out and laddering to are features that could be distributed on everybody's individual other deed,
but I think there's like a lot of scaling stuff that wants to be tested leading up to stuff like
that. But I don't think that that's a secret. That's like, it actually should be the opposite
of a secret. Like that is where we are going. And so if you hold another deed, like that's 100%
what you should be able to do.
MML is kind of like a support character in the world of Other Side.
I don't think it's like the main thing.
I think that the original story of Other Side that, you know, people kind of aped into is really based around these 100,000 worlds and the resources and the artifacts and all
That's certainly why i bought into it like i i love the storytelling and i loved the different the complicated rarity
aspect of it but fundamentally like what we are testing out now is just like what does resonate
with people so like when we do build this thing to scale and to go kind of like more horizontally
we want to make sure that the products we're building aren't just kind of like leading to cul-de-sacs but they that they test
things that give us you know the longest most valuable road for us and the long run so you know
i think that's where we're going tropical uh is like yeah you being able to like do these things
on your other deeds and there will
probably be like incremental tests leading up to that um but i think for now you know
you could still kind of do those things like i've seen uh apeco do some stuff i've seen other games
do some stuff where they just meet up in the mML world. And I think that's a good proof of concept for now.
It's not totally private yet, but it is a kind of designated place for people to be able to show up and experiment and do it as a group.
And I think we take for granted, too, it's like a really invisible feature of Other Side.
Just how many people can show up here.
The mass concurrency part of this, the social part of this like look around in this clubhouse like you wouldn't be able to do this on other platforms with like more than
15 people it would just and certainly not at this fidelity so like more and more as we build these
features and opportunities on top like really this underlying layer of like a lot of people
being able to show up at once
is something that's going to continue to differentiate what we're doing here versus
what anybody else can do. Yeah, well said. That's perfect. And yeah, not to fracture off at all. I
think the concurrency and like multiplayer people just drop it in is perfect. I guess I just have
this silly vision in my head for like the future
where like i was saying this earlier in a space where like it felt like you know websites were
such a like a tricky thing back in the day but now everybody has a website right like you could
even say social media like your own social media page is a website for yourself like an identity
online and i have this like silly vision in my head where like game development is getting so
like the like the bear of entry is getting lowered so much that it seems like at some
point in the future like i think everybody would have their own like you know game world as like
their own like form of website or something like instead of going to someone's site you go to a
link and it drops you into a world and it's's like that person's world. And they can like have a portfolio of their artwork
or like, you know, it's like a business card in a 3d form or something, you know, where everybody
can have their own world. And I see this MML vibe coding thing as like a gateway to like easily
constructing your own 3d environments to act as like a like a like a drop site for yourself
obviously we see 3js and these other things like doing really great 3d websites but with the power
of like you know odk and and mml like i think we're really like leveling up the playing field
here to make things interesting to where you know everybody could have like a face on the internet
or in a game world and you could have your own like 3d space and stuff like which is which is awesome you know to think about like we're getting there the bear of entry for
game development is like really lowering with these tools uh and it's just kind of making me
think of like all kinds of cool possibilities yeah i mean it's i think in the early internet
i'm talking like angel fire geo Geocities, like nobody, people
were discovering what a website could be.
And I think there are like games for sure that can be built here.
And like, that's one really big core.
But like, I was just looking at the stats today.
There's been 170,000 challenges played so far.
And then there's, there's also been like 20,000 bubbles that have formed.
And, you know, bubbles is something that just gets used over and over like we're in a bubble right now these are
like these are pretty durable like there's both a social component that gets a lot of use and then
there's also yeah games and experiences that get a lot of use and um you know another another
interesting thing is like watching the stats on like how people are leveling.
Like right now, as of yesterday, we had 586 people at level 40, which means like you have to be showing up every day.
You have to be doing the tasks. You have to be like pretty committed.
And some of those folks are wondering what's next.
And we could easily like lift the level progression arbitrarily but i think what we want to do is
factor it into these other goals that are happening this month so that well it might be like the end
of this month or the start of next month but like what we want to do is have a new thing to work up
to and that has to be paired with like a new feature. So we're constantly kind of experimenting.
And I think it's through this, like,
we originally were gonna say like,
hey, let's just do like one release a month.
And, you know, in February,
we released something like every week.
In March, we released something almost every week.
So this is a really good pace for us to continue to ship at
and to find what is the, like to find the fun in all
of this like we have to test it because like people think that there might be a fun idea but
unless we test it unless we see people come together and try it out we don't know if that's
what actually people will want and i think by iterating this much we're gonna find and it's
not only us like that's the other thing
we're working on ways to get out of the way like we want like why should we be the only ones that
can make challenges like it would be great if like you guys could do that too like we're trying to
figure out ways that like it doesn't all have to come from yuga for instance and i think that
there's great communities that like i want to to throw a spotlight on. Like, I think like what Mibits is doing with football is exactly like, wow, that's so inventive,
you know, like they're doing this digital collectible and then you can play the collectible
and you collect the collectible in real life. Like that was such a well thought out campaign.
And I think there's a lot of opportunities for communities to be able to leverage other side.
You know, I wish, I wish we had other side in 2021.
There would be so many people leveraging these tools,
even though they're very sparse right now.
With every month that passes,
we're going to just do more and more stuff.
And hopefully that builds confidence
in people wanting to build together alongside with us.
So lots happening here, Tropical.
I think those are good questions.
Awesome, man. Yeah, thanks are good questions. Awesome, man.
Yeah, thanks for the response.
And we're definitely trying on my side
with the Renderpool and the Renderpool Hotel idea,
just getting people familiar with 3D,
with MML and even AI stuff.
we're definitely gonna bring in the hotel.
Maybe it would be like six, seven floors
of just like community members rooms
that they've built so far. We have a decent decent a good handful of rooms already on our website therenderpool.com and uh
yeah once we get a good building structure set up we want to feature it and do a big uh grand
opening of the hotel so everybody can come and check out everybody's rooms that they've created
in blender and ai by coding and all that so we definitely want to push the limits and see
what happens uh yeah man it's just thanks for giving us a space to just create and do stuff
you know originally the render pool hotel was going to be an odk experience but then the mml
went live so we were like you know what let's change gears and get this right into mml public
world as soon as possible so people can explore the rooms and share what they've created with like vibe coding, MML, Blender, and all that good stuff. So yeah,
man, thanks. Yeah, Tropical, I think we all appreciate what you're doing with, you know,
all of your experiments and the weekly kind of like render pools that you're hosting.
It's great stuff to see on the timeline. Appreciate that, man. We're trying hard. We're
trying hard, trying to get people to
look inward here and also the most importantly for me was activating the community from inside
like sure there could be the game devs that come from the outside that are already have experience
with unreligion that that is you know that is clear but i think there's something you know
really strong about when the community within activates because like look at the avatar system
so far you know everybody here creates an avatar puts it up whether it's vibe coded or whatever
and people want it because it's coming from the inside and so you know i guess this is just kind
of my attempt at subtly sneaking people into a 3d realm to uh you know what i mean just like
activate from within here build our own stuff build their own worlds and i think the community would be far more excited to see something come from within our own you know from in here yo
tropical i want to i want to jump in and say i saw you doing uh i saw you posted something about you
were teaching a class in spain a little bit about other side the other day you want to talk about
that for a second i'm i'm i'm very curious what that's all about.
Dude, I'd love to talk about it. So I wasn't in Spain physically, the power of the internet. I was just streaming myself. But if everybody here knows A, A-E is his name. He is an instructor
at this technical school and he got invited to teach some classes on technology and stuff.
And one of them happened to be a section on Metaverse and Web3.
Well, he came knocking on my door and said,
Hey, man, I can't think of anybody else.
Do you want to come up here and talk about the other side?
And so it was a three-hour course.
It was a lot of info, and I took up all three hours.
And, dude, I talked about everything, man,
from, like, Creation Abortive Yacht Club, First Trip, Second Trip, Project Dragon. three hours and dude i talked about everything man from like creation of board of yacht club
first trip second trip project dragon uh talked about i even talked about the sandbox board
you know prior to all of this other you know odk stuff uh but you know that was short and then we
dove straight into odk you know crypto rails with a ape coin ape chain um you know then talked about developing with odk talked
about the communities here other games you know talked about render pool uh cozy corner with our
movie sessions and movie nights and trivia nights just to kind of show a wide bandwidth of like the
stuff people are doing here games education and just like community retention by doing fun stuff
together and then at the end of it uh they
were so activated that they were like yo let's jump in right now and so the whole class like
literally jumped into other side and we played uh one of the challenges uh that was out just
outside the temple so we went in got them to play a challenge and then afterwards we got them to
claim a badge from op so these are people who have no
idea bro have never you know never seen any of this and they were smiling they were having fun
they were just like you know laughing you know like just like really entertained by the world
uh and and they claimed a badge they made an account you know and and they got that 0.18
coin in their wallets now, right, when they make
a new account. So it was a really great activation. I got to really thank A for putting that together
and stuff. But yeah, it was this thing in Valencia, Spain, they just shine lights on like technology,
projects, startups, stuff like that. And yeah, we were able to get a whole presentation for
other side in our community here. And I was really glad to do it.
And I was just excited to talk about everybody here and what everybody's doing.
The aquarium in Valencia, Spain, absolutely beautiful.
If anyone's ever been incredible.
And then also, we got Oregon Trail growing up.
And these kids get the other side to learn how to build amazing, amazing things.
How far we have advanced in computer technology.
And it makes sense, Figgy, what you said earlier, how can we really paint a year picture when it moves so fast right now in front of our eyes and with everyone contributing and developing and learning
how to push forward mml uh it's a very very exciting time ahead of us
hey baron you know what's crazy is um with every like every three months on other side
or ever since the ape chain um except in the apepe Chain, remember we saw Rita rise up and become a great leader.
Then we've seen Machiavelli and the other game scene.
And now we're in the era of Tropical and him becoming a leader.
So all of these people are becoming leaders in the space in their own right.
All on platforms and things that we've introduced to the club.
And I love seeing that we have. Those are the three thought leaders right there.
I mean, other games is a whole pool of thought leaders, but just like Rita and what Tropical Virtue is doing.
There's going to be a ton of people that come in, especially speaking on Tropical, that's going to come in and be influenced and taught by his train of thinking.
Me included. I'm going to be, I have an idea, a couple of ideas that I want to, I'll be DMing him about.
So it's great to see this come to our community and really have that feeling from 2021 that, that, that it's like that positivity, you know what I mean?
That wonder, that excitement.
I feel like our community may be one of the last communities on, in the space that are,
that really have this every single day.
We're optimistic and it's not toxic at all because, you know, we're living and breathing
So it's pretty fascinating. Can't believe we we're living it and breathing it so it's pretty
fascinating can't believe we're coming up on gotta get you almost man that shit's crazy
five years of doing this with so many homies like i look around and i see so many friends that have
been here since day one and so many new faces and it's crazy because i used to always say like
what's the club gonna be like in 10 years and we're halfway there man like this feels very surreal that this is still growing so fast and there's so much ahead of us but
man we've accomplished a lot in a short time just to take a minute to appreciate how fast
everything moves tropical go for it i know she cut you off then we're gonna go over to spend uh
and lost and talk ape chain for a little bit yeah i was just gonna say illa let's get you a booth or a studio
room whatever fits your vibe man uh you know let me know man i can uh i can whip up something and
blender for you or help you out with some ai assets but uh it would be cool to to you know
get uh even other communities represented in this like render pool hotel project so see it as like
space and advertisement whatever man this is not a a thing for money or nothing this is just
activation on a creative uh level to just kind of get our community to show up and you know have fun
and sneakily get them into working with 3d and mml without realizing it but uh yeah man let me
know what you want and we can whip something up
man no thing no problem oh you know i'm for sure hollering at your studio that's like a no-brainer
but i'm gonna i want to bring some ratchetness bro i'm gonna build a corner stove and some good
shit like it's gonna be hilarious we'll put it on the corner right near right right outside the render pool hotel
we'll post stuff out there i love it brother i love it
yo spin come on up to the speaking rug let's talk ape coin uh loss come on up
uh lost come on up man how you guys doing today welcome welcome happy thursday
man how you guys doing today welcome welcome happy thursday
gmgm thank you for having this up uh thank you for giving us a nice little space on the
rug come on lost come on lost come on scoot over here don't be scared uh don't touch me there sir
uh this week on ape chain oh my god i mean you know definitely gonna touch on some you know, definitely going to touch on some of the MML stuff.
Definitely touch on some of the community stuff on the ground.
But at a high level, Black Beard Season 2 rolled out earlier this week.
It will end on March 15th.
So this season is about 11 days long.
It's a new dawn in Blackbeard's Bounty.
In the first season, you had hunts that were curated, created by the ApeCo team.
And as you completed those hunts, you selected which communities those hunts went to.
They climbed up the leaderboards, XYZ, got rewarded. Good stuff.
This season, it's a little different. there are stats but there are no leaderboards
when you uh bull ape just sorry caught me off guard right there round one what was rewards
for individuals it was around 130 ape each for everyone that completed all of the tasks all of
the hunts that were available you received a little bit of ape coin and then you received a dang nft that would
have accumulated to that value of uh the leader the individual leaderboard a split up between the
200 or so folks that completed all hunts season two 95k up for grabs a bit different in terms of
the structure instead of us creating uh creating these hunts and curating these hunts we will be doing that we will have some
nice twists and turns here you might have seen a little monkey statue around the other side here
and there stay tuned but this season you yourself can create one hunt when you create a hunt you can
select the community that that hunt goes for that means unlike last season when you enter a hunt if
it's a hunt that's dedicated to a community you will uh all those completions will be tallied for
that community you do have the option when you create a hunt not to select the community which
then gives users the ability to pick a community of their own choice so a bit different but same
idea you're running around you're completing these
hunts you're either completing these hunts that are uh you know being created by the amazing
community members that are tying in lore that are tying in stories that are tying in fun and maybe
even some mini games some you know some alpha in their hunts so definitely take some time go through
blackbeard's bounty same offer is open as last season as it will be every season
if you're running into any issues if you're trying to validate a spot and you can't get it validated
open the ticket in the apecoin discord we'll check it out we'll give you the right location and we'll
make sure to bump you forward so you don't need to go through that minting flow over and over again
until you get it right um but yes lots of fun um foxy fam has a very simple hunt out
now go ahead knock it out um i'm pretty sure you you may possibly get a you know a little a little
avid a little wearable a little something a little something if you knock out a hunt and i know other
communities are doing uh the same thing so get in there start messing around and how do you position yourself
for these individual rewards play the game be creative be creative in your hunts be creative
in the way you play uh anyone else when you can't copy uh not too sure bull ape if you go to use
glyph.io should be able to grab that wallet very easily via the useglyph.io site sign in
grab your wallet and yeah just get in there ask us questions make those hunts i believe there's
around 50 60 hunts already um so get in there uh shout out to real us shout out to foxy fam shout
out to otters shout out to the crypto cats uh We've seen you guys getting in there, getting active, and we love to see it.
Outside of Blackbeard's Bounty, I mean, this week on ApeChain was no slow week.
If you missed it, tap into everything that Clutch Markets is doing.
Clutch Markets did roll out a brand new DEX platform where it provides a lot of what we've been doing across a lot of other platforms.
But the biggest key is these fees that you generate for a platform when you're swapping, when you're bridging, when you're making a trade, when you're opening up a leverage trade.
Those fees are being pocketed, rightfully so, to the platforms that operate the tools that you use.
On Clutch Market, now, when you load in, you pick a community,
you boost when you boost the community. That means all of these fees, all of these,
you know, funding fees, swapping fees, that you're paying, go to your backs. They go to buying the
floor of the collections that you are boosting. So, you know, I think it's a step in the right direction
in terms of having your bags work for you.
And if you're anybody like me,
you probably get wrecked when you open up a leverage trade.
I proudly get wrecked all the time.
And it's good to know that now if I do get wrecked,
even those fees, you know, go towards, you know,
pumping up my eight bags and my yugo bags across the ecosystem so
definitely check out clutch markets simple farmers cooking there's a lot of good stuff there
um and yeah i mean we also just earlier today had a space with the quirkies fam we are kicking off
our friday weekly uh other side activities with the quirky fam at 4 p.m. Eastern.
Very similar to what we've been doing with Me Bits and Chimpers.
These are going to be weekly games.
We're going to be taking over the side with Quirkies.
That's kicking off tomorrow.
This Saturday, I see MMWalks up here.
We'll be co-hosting a very special Foxy fam other side event with a chain,
we're going to figure out what's going on with Banny.
We're going to chase them down.
But a ton of fun playing there.
across the eight chain community.
appreciate everyone that's hopped into
the OS vibes world appreciate everyone that uh joined us on game time earlier this week and
ran through my obstacle course um you know please head into the other side discord uh roles have not
been expanded yet to my knowledge so if you are opening up the other side discord ticket sharing
your M uh your MML builds you are putting yourself in the best position to get added.
No one has been added yet, but I'm seeing all those tickets, so keep pouring in.
If you end up running into an issue where maybe you can't open a ticket, feel free to drop me a ping directly in the other side discord and we'll get that fixed.
Hopefully by the day-to-day, that's no longer an issue regardless.
But as always, use us as an open door. We are that open door and super excited.
Lost, I mean, we also had an amazing Gold Sky webinar today where, you know, you in a quick 35, 40 minute session, you can get inside Alpha from Andrew from the Gold Sky team on, you know, indexing on Ape Chain, leaning on the gold sky tool set to be able to you know maybe
populate some info about your community maybe populate some info about you know things that
you want to know about what's going on on a chain all that is available through the tool set at gold
sky and they've been incredible partners if you ping anybody on the team they should be quick to
respond and yeah lost let me know my dog i rambled there for a bit but i
know i had to miss something what's going on you smoking of course you did fine eight
of course you did but i never say of course you did that every week you fucking nail it but this
week i'm saying of course you did but it's because you're such a humble fucking guy bro like you
built eight disneyland in the mml and it fucking highlight of the week
for a lot of people i think they saw they saw what you built they experienced it you know some people
have been been exploring and jumping around playing around with what you build and yeah i think that's
a highlight for a lot of community you're not you know somebody that um and and this is this is you
know i i me spend a lot of us are not people that are traditionally animators or illustrators or with those technical skills.
But now, you know, here in less than a week, we've gone from, you know, total ignorance.
I mean, I knew absolutely nothing about deploying.
I knew absolutely nothing about MML.
Absolutely nothing about deploying assets in any world. any world never done anything in Roblox
I mean maybe like I don't know fucking 20 years ago I put some roller coasters up in roller coaster tycoon that's about it but now
you know we're building trains we're building rockets we're blasting off the planets and
Sven has a fucking a maze built around his ape around his his IP in less than a week.
You know, I mean, and I think that that's going to be the case for a lot of people.
You know, we're working a lot every day. We support the community.
We love to be here with you guys. And I think there's people that will have a ton of creativity, a ton of energy, a ton of time to unleash once these things start to roll out more.
And I already see some of the cool tools
that the community is building specifically
Shout out Frosty's and Creator and the open page.
There's almost a list that starts to go on
with different tools that different types of creators
or different types of, you know,
people that maybe you're not thinking about themselves as creators will start to, you know,
start to become that. And yeah, Blackbeard, I saw the questions about Blackbeard's bounty in the chat. I would just add a little alpha. I would say since the apes are here, since we're in the
clubhouse, maybe some folks are tuning in from outside of the club. I would just add a little alpha. I would say since the apes are here, since we're in the clubhouse, maybe some folks are
tuning in from outside of the club.
I think there's like a thousand people on the fucking stream right now.
I would say season rewards this time, they're going to roll out a little sooner.
I would say don't wait until the end of the season.
Yeah, there's going to be surprise mechanics.
You know, there's not a public leaderboard.
You're starting to see the story unfold.
And I think maybe after the, you know, we wrap up here, we could maybe step maybe just 20 feet forward from where we normally take our picture.
And something new has actually popped up here in the swamp.
So Blackbeard was sort of sucked into this world, this other side with us.
But it seems like he wasn't alone.
Yeah, there's something new just outside the club and actually all over the nexus and the swamp that seems to have appeared.
So maybe we could check that out when we roll out.
And there's also a recap that's pinned at the top of the ApeCoin page.
There's 101 things going on in the community
and in Apecoin and Apechain
and here on the other side and IRL.
And just a small look at some of the high level things
there pinned on the Apecoin page.
If you missed it in February,
that's up there for you to catch up.
And maybe just a note on the AI stuff.
And again, shout out to the community.
We have a tool from a company called UniBlock.
You can search for them on X and you can scroll the A-chain hub account and find one of the
tweets that was shared there.
And they created this, it's called the MCP and essentially they created a way for people
that have built and are building AI agents to access ApeChain data directly with
So that's something that's cool and I'm sure we'll start to see, I know for a fact we're
starting to see more and more partners popping up with these tools and we're going to start
to see more of this agent economy starting to kick off in ApeChain.
Coco sent us a note today and was up on the stage and said
uh i don't know if you guys know coco he's an ape he built this platform called a church and it's like an arcade he said that people got agents in the ape church rolling arcades uh arcade
slots plain slots playing blackjack just just in there you know losing money just like the rest of
us um so the the economy real. The economy is real.
And shout out to Simple too.
He also put together a book of skills,
some of them for the on-chain activity,
But yeah, if you're not following Simple Farmer
and you are interested in AI,
you definitely need to correct that.
He's one of the affiliated accounts on 8Points.
You can find him super, simply and um yeah just shout
shout out to all the all the communities i mean piggy just said it you know it's not far out
it's happening here every single day staple staple crypto brands ip that everybody's familiar with
some that some some ip that's brand new and that nobody's familiar with are spawning up here in
the other side and then finding a home with the apes and the codas.
And not just the, you know, not just the avatars,
but now we're starting to see experiences
in full coming to life, these unique models and items.
So yeah, shout out to everybody
that's building something cool
and shout out to everybody that's here.
And thanks for getting up to space, Baron.
And if we, yeah, if we could maybe get a picture,
but it's very ape-ish very it's very ape-ish it's very ape-ish it's it's only like
25 feet in front of the entrance at whenever we're down here no we're for sure gonna go uh let's wrap
it up guys appreciate everyone coming out here one question i want to do this i said i was gonna do
