carbohydrate uh how you doing today my man how you doing what's going on sansa hey oh
i'm not gonna do my sansa impression i i feel like i could have if i had committed
from the beginning but i I chickened out.
I'm good. I've been looking for the mojo for a long time now.
And it seems we've got some mojo here.
So let's talk about the mojo.
The whole planet. Just full.
full. Just
Just dripping.
I've just been
told that the reason
why Mike wasn't able to come out mute
was because he can't hear me.
And considering that I'm co-host, that
could be a little troublesome. And
considering one of the main people we're supposed to be talking to
today is Mike, also proves
a little troublesome. So, this is what we're
going to do. Brents, I'm going to ask you to do a little troublesome. So this is what we're going to do.
Brez, I'm going to ask you to do a little improv comedy
on my behalf
while I leave and come back
and then I'm going to check in with JYP
and Nam. Oh, God.
Yeah, you got this, dude. You know what?
We're not going to wait for you to check in with JYP.
Okay, let me just adopt my Sansa persona.
There we go.
Don't forget to retweet the room don't forget to
drop a like and a comment uh azuki azuki azuki beans beans beans uh yada yada space host jyp
how you doing man welcome to the space yo what's up man uh yeah you know You know, it's always exciting on Min Day and yeah, super hyped for this.
I know, actually, I've been playing this game for quite some time.
Like, I think I first heard about them from, I'm not wrong, Amazon, Amazon.
And then I got the, I think I got something from Amazon and then I tried the game because, you know,
it's like a auto chess game, right?
And I've been playing like TFT, if you've heard it or not, TFT is like a team fight tactics.
It's like the Riot version auto chess game.
I've been playing that, it's super exciting.
And then I've been playing Planet Mojo as well, it's quite fun.
Yeah, I'm super excited for this.
Awesome, dude.
I caught something about, you bought something on Amazon.
Is that right?
Yeah, it was quite some time ago.
They had this, I think, I can't remember.
I can't remember.
It was quite long ago, but they had something on Amazon.
And then you were able to redeem something.
If you were like, uh,
I think it was a prime,
your prime, uh,
account holder,
you're able to redeem a game asset from,
from to play in plan mojo.
So it was super fun.
that's cool.
We gotta love the web to integration.
Thanks. Thanks, thanks Beth Appreciate it
This is Sansa
I forgot Sansa transformed into a British humanoid
Look, real quick
Mike, please tell me you can hear me
Because if not
I just went through all that
And I can hear I'll think.
And I can hear Sansa also.
All right.
That threw me off.
You sliced it.
That threw me off.
Oh, sorry.
But this is weird.
What's happening?
I'm so confused.
there's no other better person than I have, would I have to have
up here with me. Brez and I have been friends
for basically a year and a half now, so it's
basically like having my little better up on stage.
Look, if you guys haven't
already, let's go ahead and go. Bottom right hand
corner. I know Brez already did it, but I'm going to do
a little bit more in official capacity.
Bottom right hand corner, let's repost,
comment, some questions that you might have. We're going to open it up for some questions a little bit more official capacity. Bottom right-hand corner, let's repost, comment, some questions that you might have.
We're going to open it up for some
questions a little bit later on, but
more so from the listeners as well.
Speakers are free to ask a question at any time.
We're just going to get through it. I'm going to kickstart
it off soon in a little bit, but if you haven't already,
bottom right-hand corner, let's repost, comment,
and bookmark. If you're too lazy to do that,
just go on top of my head right here,
click through there, it'll take you to the same place.
Whatever you want.
It's your preference. But let's get
into it. Loki, you shot your hand up. Let's go
over to you before we kick it off. What you got, my man?
Yeah, very boring
question, but I think many
DJs are like me.
We don't know how to read.
So can you remind us
how much time we have to mint?
Like how long is
the mint window?
Do you know that?
Yeah, Mike.
Let's start with that and then we'll
take this around too, you know, because
DJs don't like to read. So,
Mike, you want to start us off there and then
I'll take us off with the other the other question sure sure drop facts fact dropper hold on let me bring up my cheat sheet
so i have everything oh we love the tt we love the cheat sheet okay that was like the beginning
of a rap yo drop facts facts drop is that is that just me i don't know it's
just in case you were thinking about if you saw me in person you'd realize that wasn't possible
but um maybe you get lucky broken clock gets lucky twice a day um yeah so the main thing i
guess forgetting all the pesky details is start time is in about 45 minutes from now, 10 a.m. ET, and you have two
hours, two hours, 10 to 12 ET or three to five UTC for our international friends.
And then if there are any left, public will start right after that at 12.
One thing to note also, anyone listening, because there's been some chaos and people asking about
the list, and we are getting some more wallets added to the list right now this morning. So if
you weren't on there and were writing us Discord tickets, you still have a shot.
There we go.
There we go.
So you guys got the facts right up front.
That's why we're going to be stopping a little bit, a couple minutes before the space is intended to end.
Just so that people can, you know, the team can go take the couple minutes they need
to get everything ready if they already have it,
but, you know, just in case.
And you, Degens, can go get your setup ready as well,
whether it's a laptop, desktop, whatever you got,
you know, with your 500 wallets.
But look, I want to get into this.
Let's go ahead and let's get this started.
Again, I'm just just gonna start this super
super simple uh mike you know again we've been going back and forth with this i want to uh we
jumped into the history of it i know we had that fireside fireside chat a few weeks ago but i i
want to start this off with let's jump into the early stages of planet mojo right um what was it even born out of
or from or inspired by so let's start there okay can you hear me any better i can hear you yeah
okay i was getting complaints i was too quiet so hopefully this is a little better now i put i put
in both airpods so I got the double mics.
All right.
All right.
So you want to go back to the beginning of Planet Mojo?
Well, you know, I think it all started, I guess.
We were making our last project because we've all been,
because we've all been, most of our team has been in games for 20 plus years.
most of our team has been in games for 20 plus years.
And we were, our team tends to, or I push them to new technology and gravitate towards that.
And so our last foray was in virtual reality.
And so we know a little bit about metaverses, if you want to call it that.
And we were working on our Sam and Max.
This time it's
virtual game started really hearing the buzz about nfts that led me to blockchain games
and trying to figure out what that all meant and sort of out of that started working on this creative idea um often inspired by things with involving nature and and technology
which is exactly what planet mojo is all about and um sort of coming up with this idea that
of a story really where you know and this was really in the craze of metaverse talk and all this stuff.
And sort of,
if we're going to live our lives in these different metaverses,
it's like, you know,
what if there was something that sort of still connected people to the real
Cause we don't want to necessarily all be living in matrix like bubbles.
And, you know, I'm sure the metaverses are going to be that good, right?
So we need something to remind us that we're still in the real world, hopefully, and don't
completely just let AI take over. But these are the things I worry about. And so out of this,
this sort of crazy idea came. And, you know, we're really still in the early stages of telling the
story. This mysterious planet,
really don't know a lot about its origins, where it came from. We kind of come into this story where
we meet all these different clans and the inhabitants of the planet and this
weird event happens. We don't know much about it. Something opens in the space above the planet this thing hits the planet and this
technological virus starts spreading and the clans kind of send scouts out to figure out what's going
on and of course they have their prophecies and things like this that have lasted for generations
and this is sort of the beginning of of these things starting to come true
they meet the mojos they start battling in mojo melee and sort of you know we'll be telling this
story through new games and new chapters and new seasons over time and new mediums, not just games.
And I think, you know, I'm dying to tell you the next chapter,
but it's really something that, you know,
is going to be revealed over time.
So that's a good setup, at least.
Tell us everything right now.
No, I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding.
So the ending scene.
The last page of the book Actually says
Real quick we got a hand up
So I'm going to yield to Brett
Brett what you got
I was going to change the subject a little bit
So if you want to talk more about the lore
I give you permission to do that
I'll just change it
Or I'll keep talking about that all day
Well I was wondering about your personal experience as a founder.
I mean, you know, you've gone through the process of marketing and community building.
And here we are on Mint Day.
I'm wondering if you could share, like, what's, you know, what's been your big takeaway?
If you could do anything differently, what would you do?
Maybe not do it Monday morning at 10 in the morning um especially when i've been in east denver the week before um yeah just been
definitely chaos still like looking at telegram as we're on the spaces but like it's all coming
together we have a great team great support great, great people helping us, Magic Eden.
And, you know, hopefully the way we've structured this, we really wanted it to be as fair as
possible. We wanted to have as few disgruntled, pissed off people, even though inevitably
that's going to happen. But just seeing some of the way recent mints have been structured,
But just seeing some of the way recent mints have been structured, we took some steps to avoid that in terms of making this guaranteed and, you know, giving people a window where they had time, hopefully, to mint.
And, yeah, it's all coming together. But, you know, it's kind of par for the course for Web3 or game development, quite honestly.
It always, you know, whenever we're releasing a season update chaos. So if you,
if you can't handle that, just get out of this space.
Flora and get out. No, I'm just kidding. Um,
before anyone starts taking that personally, uh, JYP, my man,
you got your hand up. Let's throw it over to you. What'd you think?
Yeah, I think I do have a question for you so I remember that it was think August 2023 that you guys announced like the partnership with
Amazon and then you guys are launched I think you launch something on Amazon I
can't know what was it but I remember that I found you guys through that
and then through the Amazon Prime membership thing, right?
So my question is like,
how did the partnership, you know,
like affected you guys?
Did it really like boost your exposure by a lot
or did it really not do that much?
Like I'm curious to know,
like how did the
partnership really like help you guys and also would you recommend it for our you know upcoming
web pre-game should they partner with amazon as well and if yes and how did you guys also
manage to get into like the amazon partnership yeah thank you question. Shout out to some friends I see out there, old time supporters. Yeah, the Amazon partnership was amazing. It was a unique opportunity. It took a huge amount of work for us in some respects just to marry their tech in with our login system and the way they wanted it done and to be secure and kind
of if you went through that flow you know what i mean right about linking your account and kind of
going back and forth from the game um but once you did that once it was fairly easy to to claim
you know the prizes and yeah it lasted for six months um we created over 100,000 new accounts just from it. We minted over 25,000 NFTs, which we knew was going to happen.
And so it's a huge amount.
It has an effect on those collections, which we understood.
It was one of the reasons we wanted to launch this ETH collection
to kind of have sort of a separated,
sort of different tier of digital collectible NFTs as well.
So, yeah, overall, you know, it's been was a great experience in terms of other Web3 games doing it.
You know, I don't know if people have checked the site or the state of it, but Amazon is actually sunsetting the entire program for um web 2 and web 3 games and so in
in you know we were really lucky to get that opportunity when we could in the other web 3
web 3 games that got it and if it comes back we're certainly gonna do it again but for us it was like
really like this amazing test run to fine-t tune a lot of our systems in the game.
You know, that let us get minting, working directly in the game using sequence.
And that led to now being able to mint directly in the game once you level up your characters to level 20.
And just, you know, a test really to onboard Web2 users who have no experience
with crypto.
And so as we now prepare for the global mobile launch, that was really like a huge test case
So overall, great experience for us.
I love it.
I love it.
And I want to say, I want to kind of jump a little bit more forward to this, Mike, on this note.
Given the experience that you guys have had so far in Web3 and just in general building,
and would you say that, would you recommend to anyone who is also looking to be a builder or founder,
would you recommend to them to be building one three gaming right um is it is it not for the faint of
heart is it is it not as hard as some people think or it's blowing it out of proportion
i have a feeling it's clearly one over the other but you know i have to introduce the second one
but what are your thoughts sir well you know i already told mark long my
my buddy who who you know kind of helped me get in here early on to to stop recruiting you know
our friends from web2 we we don't need more competition but no seriously like when i was at
dice and i see my old friends i mean i'm always willing to preach the gospel to people, but they're not
always willing to listen. And, you know, I did tweet about this the other night when I got home
from Denver, just like, just the amazing contrast I'm seeing, because I kind of live
in between those two worlds. Like if I go on LinkedIn, I see all my old friends from,
you know, Web2 Gaming and and I feel for them.
But it's a complete shit show right now. Right. I mean, just horrible.
The amount of layoffs. And, you know, I said this yesterday, literally on my LinkedIn stream, like someone is having a gathering at GDC, like in a little street corner where everyone's going to get together and scream to let out all their pain and frustration. And like, you know, again, I feel for them,
but you can contrast that with what the feeling is in Web3 Gaming right now coming from East
Denver, just the incredible excitement and optimism around this space and where it can go.
Hold on for a second how was he
denver by the way how how did you personally enjoy them because i'm i'm hearing like really good
things and some people are like you know he's forward from it but how how was it uh for you
yeah my first time there so definitely figuring it out um basically it was you know a lot of uber and
lift rides because you know i wasn't actually at that quote show i was kind of doing all these
events downtown and denver's very spread out but like it was amazing like the actual events i went
to just met some people some investors that you know i've known now for several years, got to meet them in life, got to hang out with my Animoca boys who I love seeing and always give incredible advice. the world working on new projects games but not just games you know very deep blockchain stuff
that i was you know trying to make sure i could follow as much of you know what they were doing
as possible um but also met some incredible people developing web3 games um i think riftstorm i met
the team they're from um Vietnam, possibly. Great guys.
So yeah, overall, it was great.
I love it. I love it. Well, next year, we'll have to make some room for you, Denver.
But I loved hearing about it. And it sounds like you met up with all the Cabal members.
So that's nice. I know Loki couldn't make it because he's a different Cab different cabal but you know there's a co-creation there just kidding don't worry this is not real this
is all satire for anyone start jamming oh my god there is a real cabal guys there's not there's
not it's just a bunch of people uh making up a nice little fun narrative but look i want to get
into this a little bit more um you know
mike what do you what do you want to see different this year in web3 i it could be specific to web3
gaming it could be web3 as a whole uh just just your general thoughts based off of what you've
experienced so far well you know i think we're in this cycle now. I think, you know, we see it repeated and mints and tokens and whatnot.
But like, ultimately, I think we're going to move to this next chapter here, right?
Where, I mean, that chapter can, that part's going to keep going.
It's a great way to launch projects.
It's definitely one of the things that drew us into this space. But, like, you know, if we're honest, there's really almost no Web3 projects that have brought this mainstream yet.
Right. Like and challenge me. Tell me I'm wrong.
You know, name them, please.
But like I think that's going to be the next step.
Right. It's like who's going to bridge the divide?
who's going to bridge the divide you know is it going to be a web 3 game that gets on a console
or steam that removes all the web 3 from the game i scratch my head at that a little bit to be honest
and that's why we've chosen you know path more mobile and and desktop to really lean into the
web 3 aspects because if we're ever going to bring people on board we can't hide
this stuff right that's my opinion it can be invisible it can be seamless but it can't be
hidden right you need the you need to be able to see it at least if you want to that's just my
opinion i love it i love and i agree i agree I think it's one of these things where we're in
this ecosystem where projects don't have everything ready when they're going to mint.
And it's kind of like confusing because it's like, well, if you've been working for this long
on this, why isn't it ready? Or why isn't that ready? And this goes for tons of projects, even all the way back to 2020, 2021.
All these where they just straight up, they mint it out.
And give us three to four weeks to refine the art.
And you're kind of like, what?
Is it not ready?
But anyway, I digress.
Point being is, make sure you're able to show people these deliverables sooner than later,
Point being is, make sure you're able to show people these deliverables sooner than later, rather than just hoping that, you know, you can show up with the proof of concept and just pray that people like it.
But I want to get into it.
Yeah, it's hard.
It's hard to know who to trust in this space, you know, and like we even have people we've been around now for years.
We've done tournaments.
We always do what we say
we pay our our prizes and sometimes it's a day late instantly people will be like oh my god
they're scamming us and it's like you know there's so much going on but like it's important to sort
of find the projects i think that are trustworthy but it's really hard to figure that out in the early days
you know like pixelmon is a great one looked like it was heading for like disaster and like
completely turned things around it seems so like it's just really hard to predict
i agree i agree um and it's also hard to predict people's reaction to a potential solution or, you know, something that you're bringing to the table, whether or not they want it or ask for it in the first place.
And that's why our attitude has always been sort of the slow roll approach.
We want to be the tortoise, not the hare.
You know, and that's why we've taken
three years really now to release an eeth nft you know we didn't go in for a money grab this is a
free nft so it's hopefully not looked at as a money grab and we really are want to build something
you know and when we launch certain things in the future, like we've kind of waited. We've built a foundation first.
We've de-risked this.
We've built a game already.
Watch tomorrow after the Mint today.
There's going to be some major announcements.
So there's going to be some major things over the next few weeks.
We're just getting started.
This Mint is really the beginning of four weeks of of mojo march madness let's call it
mm-hmm those are marshmallows i love it i love it uh so i wanna i wanna dive into the next question
here as well uh mike and i want to remind everyone that pretty soon again for the speakers feel free
to bring your questions back as well um what what do you and or the team what are you
looking the most forward to with planet mojo right like i i know there's probably not a lot
that you can say in terms of the future but what can you share that you guys are looking the most
forward to um you know maybe spill some alpha i don't know up to you all the things i can't tell
you um that we're about to release but no i mean i think in
general like really completing this vision of not just having one game but having this
interoperable ecosystem having something for everyone in there um yeah like i think you know
very soon when you go to play.planetmojo.io right right now it just loads up mojo melee but there's a
reason you know we didn't call it just play.mojo melee like we we actually thought of this a long
time ago and very soon it's going to change and you're going to go there and there's going to be
a bunch of different options let's just put it that way and you know with our mojo maker on-chain
avatar system we've made that sort of also also gives the key or foundation to interoperability between our projects and the future of other projects and other projects collaborating with that and being let us use that for mojos different characters and
not just in games you know have that exist through all your social platforms if you if you want to
i love it all right let's let's dive into a little bit more loki kind of you know
he was like let's get into the mint in like the first five minutes. So now I want to dive into the mint a little bit more.
I want to get into this a little bit more.
I know you kind of hit the details, but I want to,
I want to start with this.
And then again, for the speakers up here,
if there are any other details that you might want to know about men,
please feel free to throw your hands up.
Or if you're in the listener sessions still there,
feel free to ask your question in the comments and tag me.
I'm not afraid to ask any, as long as it's not, you know,
tell us everything about the future,
which, you know, we all know there's a fine line
between transparency and mystery
that allows the project to keep going
with the speculation side of things.
And so I want to start with this mike right after mint what's the next move
right after mint well you know i think if people have we published a medium article yesterday which
talks um about what's going to happen to these NFTs. There is going to be a reveal in about a week where they're going to turn into
six different war banners from the original clans of Planet Mojo.
And these tie heavily into our collection tier system,
which already exists and we've been posting more info.
It's essentially our point system which for
our mojos and champions award you points for holding them but also playing with them and these
war banners are also going to be part of that system and have a bonus collection value to them
as well because they will not be distributed equally. This is in the Medium article
talks about the different quantities of each one. So depending on which one you get and how many
unique ones you want to collect, you can get a huge point bonus, which is going to lead to some
very exciting things coming up very soon. I love it. And for the Medium article, for anyone who
does like to read, you know, all five
of you in this space,
an article up on top.
And while there's 100 people in here,
I want to thank you guys for being here. And I want to
say, if you guys don't mind, go ahead and go
repost the space, bottom right hand corner.
Let's go ahead and do that. If you have any
questions you feel like that you want to ask that haven't been asked,
I'm about to go over to Loki because he had a hand up.
Then he took it down.
He's kind of playing my feelings a little bit.
I don't know what he wants anymore.
It's like when you ask somebody, what do you want for dinner?
It's like, I don't know.
And then you're like, how about Italian?
They're like, no.
How about Chinese?
They're like, no.
How about literally anything?
They're like, no.
And then you just find out that they're just not hungry so loki i want to go to over to you uh any what's your question
and then again for the reminder uh for potential reminder for anyone that's listening uh if you're
not able to speak because you're listening to this like a podcast feel free to ask your question in
the comment section and tag myself so i know where to go and make sure i can find it loki my man what's your question so actually i want to ask when is it when's the
mint no i'm kidding um yeah uh mojo say you've wrote a medium but i cannot read so i think i'm
gonna miss on that part too.
I have a totally unrelated question.
Oh, I see Kermit on stage.
Hi, Kermit.
Because I know Eve Apple, but it becomes
BRC Apple.
So, who is Eve Banana?
I don't mean disrespect, but who is
it? Banana.
The questions that we ask of the fruits of on-chain ecosystem in life.
You know, he could have simply have picked an apple from a tree, Loki.
And it just turns out to be Bitcoin BRC related, you know.
And it's just, it's a tough thing. It's a tough thing. it just turns out to be Bitcoin BRC related.
It's a tough thing. It's a tough thing.
I've shot them all an invite.
I've shot them all an invite to come up on stage
Everyone's chilling today.
I thought he was serious with that first
question. Went mint and I was like, you literally
asked that 27 minutes ago.
But no, in all seriousness, I want to carry this over to the next step here.
Wanted to say, I think we touched on this slightly,
but are there any future partnerships or collaborations, Mike,
that you guys can hint on in the future?
You know, just a little bit.
I can hint.
I can say we're talking to some major eSports organizations
that I feel like that whole space is really, you know,
coming back around to Web3 and with sort of a different mindset and presenting
all kinds of exciting collaboration partnership possibilities. So yeah, that's one thing.
You know, I'll just say, you know, my background, we've worked with toy companies for 20 years Hasbro Spin Master
while we others so that's something um we're always thinking about as well and have a lot
of connections there um and uh yeah I think it's something that you know as we look at
wanting to grow the IP outside of games has always been something we've thought about.
At the same time, I've learned over my career, you know, be great at one thing.
Don't try to be too many things at once because then you spread yourself to things.
If you're great at one thing, everything else is going to fall into place.
And you're going to have a movie and you're going to have a movie. And you're going to have a comic book. And you're going to have a game, etc.
projects that try to do everything at once,
usually see those succeed in
my career. Just a little
advice. Facts.
Facts. And you know what makes me funny?
I mean, this is probably an old man thing,
Mike, you know, because I get called an old man a lot.
You can't beat me in that.
Well, according to the rest of the NFT space,
you and I are in the same exact boat.
So there's also that.
But no, no, no.
In all seriousness, it is funny when people are like,
we're going to do it all.
We got this. We're going to crush like, we're going to do it all. We got this.
We're going to crush it.
We're going to crush it.
And then it's like, sorry, guys, I'm burnt out.
I can't do this.
I need to hand this over to the community.
And it's like, well, of course we saw that coming.
So that is a great additional criteria for anyone to add when they're looking at projects in general and what they want to achieve.
I want to keep this geared towards
the mint, though. It's very
easy to get a quick side tangent
here, but we got two hands up.
Brad and JYP. So Brad, go ahead,
my man. What's your thoughts?
I'm just wondering if you need to take a
cholesterol check break.
I don't know what it is. I don't know
what you need to do
as the elders,
but check like
a heart monitor on or something or
just take a pulse
maybe to make
sure you're still going. The audacity.
The audacity. The audacity.
This is all I need
to still going and wake everyone up.
Nice little air horn
just to make sure everyone knows that
there is indeed a soundboard here behind
the screen.
But yeah, I checked
my cholesterol this morning. Joke's on you.
I'm doing just great.
Barely striving, but I'm doing just great.
you got your hand up.
I want to throw this over to you. What you got?
Yeah, I think I want to talk a little bit more about IPs in gaming.
I think it's quite interesting because for Mojo,
you guys have a very interesting IP, like the forest creatures and the forest characters and stuff, right?
So do you guys plan to use
to collaborate with other Web3
gaming studios to create
more games
to have their Mojo
IP in it? And also,
do you plan to collaborate
with other IPs
to have it in
future Mojo games?
Great question.
Yeah, I mean, that's something I'm very passionate about.
We were actually doing a Spaces yesterday afternoon with shrapnel,
and this came up, and I love those little chibi shrapnel characters
and just thinking of the idea of a little mojo decked out in shrapnel
gear i think people were might be into that just have a feeling so um yeah it's something we've
definitely talked about a lot like first we needed to sort of build the foundation we're still
actually a few steps away from completing the mojo Maker to where we want it to be, to have tinting.
And then also the individual parts can be separate NFTs, right?
So they're not just melded into your character only when they're on chain.
Like if you want to just have the separate costume as an NFT and sell that, you can do it.
So that plus an eventual SDK, these are kind of the foundational pieces I think for that and in the short term us just doing
Sort of partnerships one-offs collabs with other projects
I'm a big fan of I think it's nifty island and how they're able to bring in other projects and yeah
I'm all for this stuff. I
Love that and I'm all for this stuff. I love that. And I'm going to take this over to Master Jan in a second,
but I just also want to cover,
I want to talk about the war banners a little bit,
because I'm reading,
I'm going through the medium just a tiny bit,
just to see if there's anything that I feel that this basis should know,
since they don't like to read.
You know, I'm trying to be the clip notes for Loki over here,
because my
man went from, what man?
Who is Banana and
Apple on BRC?
There's a lot of ADHD
happening right now, so I got to bring it back in
My next question after
Master Jan, I'm going to hit on the war banners
a little bit, and I think some people should understand
why. But Master Jan, let's throw it over to you what you got yeah i just want to ask
one question i'm really wondering how the art is looking like and when would the reveal be after
the mint yeah the art is something i'm super excited about with these nfts these are actually our first artwork that we've made in
unreal engine for planet mojo you may be curious why we're working in unreal engine
there may be more news about that soon but these are the the initial war banner actually if you go
to magic eden site you can get a little hint of what it looks like now um at the launchpad site yeah it
just came out gorgeous just when you see animation and weather effects and everything it's incredible
and then yeah one week later the reveal is scheduled to happen those will be these individual
amazing looking banners folk 3d also in unreal with effects and yeah i just i
think they look awesome if you like 3d art and you know i think you'll be pretty stoked with this
yeah thank you and do we know when the reveal would be after the mint? Scheduled one week.
Your favorite project could never...
Sorry, I had to.
It's a classic joke that we all have to do at one point or another in time.
I just happen to be doing it a hundred times in a row.
But real quick, Banana wants to check in with us.
I'm not going to lie.
Banana, when I see that name, I immediately go to Dominions.
You know, so, like, I might just call you Banana at some point.
But how is it?
Like it, Sanja.
You know, I was listening.
I was joining.
And, you know, I was actually. I was joining and, you know,
I was actually busy translating everything
what you said in a Korean community chat.
I, you know, I couldn't just request it, you know.
I couldn't just avoid not requesting a mic.
I like your energy.
Once again, we recently did a great AMA with Planet Mojo.
And I know today was a mint party
and also mint is what you know about 13 minutes so I'm just keep typing
everything in live in our discord group channel yeah basically yeah you know we
are representing banana and Apple is representing search by and then once
again we had a great great AMA and I was just surprised that how he was keep dropping the alpha after alpha.
And I was like, damn, some of the information that we missed in our AMA.
I was like, this guy was hiding something.
What's up, bro?
What's up?
As I say, this is why they they got to stop letting me talk.
You guys got to appreciate these windows.
I'm just – soon there's going to be someone here who's going to have duct tape on their mouth.
Yeah, man. Once again, I was like, you know, I thought after the AMA,
we got like a very, very good, solid Alpas and a shares.
And this Twitter space is just full of the Alpas.
I was like, damn, what's going on?
You know, it's my fault, Banana.
You know, it's my fault.
I just, you know, I let Loki go first before I could start the questions.
You know, and it all went downhill from there.
No, I'm just kidding.
Real quick.
Loki, you got your hand up. What you thinking?
Hi banana nice to meet you
I couldn't you know stop me raising hand because I was like just typing every single thing in Korean
Which is not easy, you know, in a ride, live, like, you know, translating in my community.
Then I was like, damn, this guy has a super height.
And we've been hearing apples and banana, like a soup and chapstick.
I was like, fork and knife? No problem.
I raised my hand.
All right, guys, thank you.
I let you guys talk.
But thank you so much for the great alphas, dropping, dropping.
And it's like nine in the morning.
And thank you, Sanjan.
It was a great energy.
Appreciate it.
Thank you for coming up.
I appreciate you.
And I want to also kind of take this really quickly to a little bit more of a technical
question, right?
Which is a little bit more of what other perks and the benefits of minting
this. And again, I know
that this is in the Medium article,
but this is more for people who absolutely
hate to read, which is about
80% of the space.
Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. I had to.
I had to. I had to throw in the mechanical
lap with the air horn. It just makes sense.
But Mike, please please take it away.
You didn't read the fine details.
You get a private jet if you hold on it.
No, I'm just kidding.
Maybe someday.
But yeah, no, the credible utility with these, a lot of it's going to be revealed over time.
I already talked about our collection tier point system.
Let me just go through the utilities.
So first of all, the reveal of one of these six war banners, as we mentioned.
High collection tier value.
You get a bonus for owning two, four, or six unique ones.
It's going to unlock exclusive rewards.
And that's something I want to emphasize.
Can't say too much about it but exclusive rewards coming soon um also going to be eligible for in-game playable assets
that's skins mojo parts things like that future ecosystem benefits whitelist spots airdrops um
early access to upcoming games and tournaments. And that's just the beginning.
That's just the beginning.
All right.
All right.
All right.
All right.
Now, real quick.
Everyone should be expecting to reveal one of six war banners, correct?
One of six representing
six different clans.
Ooh! Which clan
are you going to be in?
People might want to trade. They might
like one as opposed to another.
do again. They come in different
quantities. So some of these
are going to be extremely rare
like the claw haven banner that that would be my next question because i wasn't sure if it was an
even distribution among the clan so it's not nope nope okay cool cool yeah yeah there some of them have 600 each. Then Fergin has 400.
Supremist has 300.
And then the rarest ones, Croker, Kermit's going to like this, only has 80.
And the bear, because we don't want too many bears, right?
There's only 20 of those.
Claw Haven.
I like you, Mike.
You just dropped the Alpha.
You're just like, you know what? Take the Alpha.
The Mint's happening in 10.
It's in the Alpha. It's in the Medium article.
Well, that's the funny part. That's the funnier part.
Because it's in the Medium article.
You have plenty of DJs
who are just like, no.
I don't want to look at it. Don't look at me.
That's why we're here.
That's why we're here. This is the cheat sheet.
Yes, that's right.
The cheat sheet is the medium
article. I love it.
I love it. But no, in all
seriousness, I'm going to take this over to Breds in a
second. I want to remind everyone that
I'm going to start looking at the comment session for any
additional questions as well
So again, this is the time to go ahead and type your question in if you feel like we haven't covered something that you personally want to know
Press what you got my man
Hey banana nice to meet you
Thank you. Thank you pleasure. Nice to meet you all. And then yes, the realities. Yeah, we'll see how can I flip 80. Yes, let's start getting for that. LFG guys.
Planet Mojo, question for you.
What are you expecting out of your community?
What's your perfect community member look like?
What's the type of person you want to make your project?
Well, you know, I think in a perfect world, we want people who are committed to the project long term.
People actually, you know, like games and experiences on that side of it but
you know i'm not naive you know crypto has many different personas right i've always i've talked
about this a lot that just like in free to play like we have these different personas and i think
for this to work like you kind of need everyone involved, at least at this stage.
So I'm not going to sit here and be naive.
We just want gamers who just want to play games.
That's not going to make a successful Web3 project.
So I think we need that full 360 suite of everyone.
And I think the underlying thing is, like I said, the first thing is just more long term.
is, like I said, the first thing is just more long term, right? People who believe in this and
believe in our vision to grow something beyond one game that, you know, back to this ecosystem
and interoperability, something that is built that can take this to the masses again, because
like if we're honest, nobody has yet, right? And is really a team that's experienced with games, right?
To sort of believe in us,
just like we believe in you guys.
So that I think is the key.
Trust is the foundation under all this stuff.
I love it.
I love it.
Another thing I want to add,
this is straight from the comment session.
Again, speakers, feel free to shoot your hand up
if you have a question. We have about six six minutes left i might go a little bit over
um just for the sake of you know just uh again once once the minutes opened make sure everyone
feel confident uh up to mike as well if he's like no i don't want to be on here with mince starts
because i gotta focus it's all good we can do that too. This is just more of letting people know.
Again, I'm
more focused on making sure we get the questions out
for you guys. Mike, this one
got asked about 20 minutes ago.
I can't say the name.
Yeah, I totally butchered that, but it's fine.
Will secondary
trading be
frozen for an extended period of time?
Not that I know of.
This is going to be on Magic Eden's new platform,
so it's only going to be tradable there,
and our royalties are going to be locked in with their new platform,
which is exciting,
and one reason we were bold enough to make this a free
mint. But yeah, no, I haven't heard anything
of trading being locked.
So that would be news to me.
Love it. Love it. Okay.
Well, and then
one more thing. Well, this
one is a little...
I will say you might
not want to trade till the reveal, but you know, that was me.
Yeah, you know, got to get a little speculation going.
Sorry. You might be like, why are you doing the air horn so much? Well, you know what?
You know what? What would you rather? This? I mean,
it's not as fun. It's not as fun.
Someone take this man's soundboard.
No. No, no, no, no, no.
Bottom of my hand corner. Let's go ahead and repost
if you haven't already. Let's bookmark this. We're going to get
this going. I do have a question,
but it's a little bit more of a blockchain
issue rather than it is, you know,
Planet Mojo's thing. So
we can jump into that
question if you want, but we don't have to uh jyp you got
your hand up let's go to you first yeah i want to say two things i think uh i think bradson
do like a spacer together and call it bread i think it's quite it's quite funny and uh the next
thing is um so like the the banners will give up points, right?
So will these points need to have a relation with the token airdrop?
We haven't talked about any token airdrop yet.
He said he didn't say there wasn't a token
Look, I'm...
All I can say is
there's going to be definite
I don't want to say
the word value, but rewards
and things to come
associated with this
mint and holding these,
and definitely in combination with our other ones,
because, you know, sort of back to that question earlier, right?
We're doing it right there,
rewarding different types of personas,
like our players and people who hold these.
That was kind of the point of, like,
letting people kind of jumpstart into our ecosystem with these.
So, yeah, you're seeing it playing out.
I ain't just talking shit.
He literally said it.
He's not just talking shit.
Even now that's going to have fun translating
I don't even know what that looks like.
if you guys haven't already,
feel free to jump into the comment session for quick questions. There was a question saying, why did you choose ETH? Because mainly there's been a little bit of an issue of gas fees being a little bit higher the last few weeks. is not one of these things where it's as simple as switching blockchains almost right away,
at least from what I imagine on the back end.
But Mike, do you guys have a reason why initially,
why you chose ETH to be the blockchain for you?
Well, the game's on Polygon.
We've had lots of NFTs on Polygon, as I talked about,
what we've done with Amazon Prime
it was very unique and there were incredible pros about it bringing the game to the masses but it
also you know gave us collections with tens of thousands of nfts in it and so for this we wanted
to just sort of move to eat to start this new chapter in Planet Mojo. As I said, we're about to unveil
so much new stuff, literally starting tomorrow after this, and want to just have sort of a clean
break. And with Magic Eden and what they're doing with their platform and ETH and royalties,
just seemed like an exciting opportunity. i think we're the first or the
second game to launch on this new platform so we're the guinea pigs but yeah we we don't mind
that it's exciting i love it and it starts in about a minute um i mike just just for real quick
in general you know uh kind of you can... You should make a sound effect when it
starts. I give you permission.
These guys are... You need a bullhorn
or something.
Some people might have
left because of that, because, you know,
someone...
Hopefully they left to go in.
Yeah, hopefully they left to go in.
Mike, just a triple
Triple, triple, triple check here
Link should be live
If not already on Magic Eden's Marketplace
Just very quickly, just want to double check
With you on that
It should be live right now
Of course I'm on the spaces with you for the last hour so i can barely
keep up with all my messages but yes uh that is the plan it should be live right now someone check
someone check for the love of god i'm doing it right now yep it's live all right perfect i am All right, perfect. I am also going to check on my end as well just to go to Launchpad.
And, yep, it is there indeed.
All you guys have to do is connect your wallet if you haven't already.
It is minting now and will be for the next hour and 54 minutes and 10 seconds
and counting as we speak this very moment.
So go ahead.
Go to Magic Eden.
Switch to the side of things, and it'll take you straight to Planet Mojo.
War banners right in front of your face.
Very hard to miss.
Guys, I hope you've enjoyed the spaces.
I know we went through a lot of questions.
I know we went through a lot of questions.
I hope you guys got the information that you wanted out of it.
And if it isn't apparent already, if you missed this or you missed the part where you were looking for, go read the Medium article.
I promise.
It's super short.
It's not like most Medium articles where it's like five pages long, right?
It's actually short.
It's just super easy.
It's right there in front of your face.
Mike has to go take...
Believe me, we're in games. We know people don't want to read.
But Mike, I appreciate you so much for letting me co-host.
I know we had a little bit of a rocky start with me.
You and me not be able to hear each other.
But I'm glad we got that fixed.
And I really thank you for answering the questions in the way that you did.
Because again, I think it got people excited
there's not too much mystery and just the right amount of transparency
which again is an art in of itself
so guys again if you haven't already it's a free mint
if you're whitelisted you should be able to go
public starts in about again an hour and 50-ish minutes,
give or take a couple minutes if you haven't checked it out on Magic Eden already.
And just a reminder, Mike, you said it's exclusively trading on Magic Eden, correct?
There you go.
So make sure you are looking at Magic Eden's marketplace only because that is where it will be.
This is the world we're moving into.
Get ready. I think this
is going to become the norm.
Guys, this has been
a phenomenal spaces. I hope you enjoyed it.
We're going to get into it. I hope you
guys have a fun minting experience.
I'm about to do it myself as well
in a little bit. Mike,
any closing remarks from you, my man, before I start the music?
I just want to say thanks to you for being an incredible host, as always,
all the other speakers, everyone for even showing up on a Monday morning.
We're never doing a mint on a Monday again.
So I appreciate everyone who came to this.
And, yeah, it looks like it's going great already,
so everyone get on there
and look forward to
seeing what everyone gets.
Thanks again for coming.
in the first couple minutes already
minted. We love to see it.
Love it. Love it.
Guys, if you're whitelisted, go for it.
Go grab it. Let's get it.
If you're waiting for public, good luck to everyone
waiting for public. We're going to
get into this a little bit. Mike, thank
you. And I
love how you're like, Monday morning, we're
never doing this again. Well, you know what?
Especially right after Eat Denver.
I feel you. I feel you.
Conference is different. But guys,
we hope you enjoyed today. You could
have gone to any spaces this morning
and you chose to come to this one.
We hope you got the information you wanted
and we will be seeing you again very, very soon, y'all.
Much love.
Thanks, y'all.
Bye, honey.
Bye, banana.
