Full Transcription
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. All right, all right.
Hello, everybody.
This is such an amazing Friday. I'm very, very happy that we are meeting again. And in what an incredible circumstances. All the charts are green. We are literally at the end of a crypto week.
dubbed it the crypto week because of the three bills that have just passed the u.s house they
are expected to be signed into law like possibly like within the next days quite frankly so we are
just like you know meeting at an incredible time and let me see if we've managed finally to get
everybody here on stage scatter how are you and can you hear me at all guys yeah comment loud and clear
lovely to have you amazing and i'm wondering if the scatter on the main account are are you there
and can you speak i'm taking this as a no um we've been having like some really really rugged Twitter spaces lately, but today we are failing for the third time to add a co-host.
So give me just a second. I am removing you.
Scatter, I think R, it's you on the Scatter account.
And maybe if you could try to leave and rejoin, we are just gonna add you again.
and rejoin. We are just going to add you again.
Okay.
And three, if at any point you do see the co-host invite pop up, accept.
Because currently we have no co-hosts, so it's going to rug us if my connection stops at any point.
It just popped up. Perfect timing.
Okay, amazing. And I'm sure that Scatter account is going to be back up at any time.
Everybody who has ever tuned into this space knows that I am the queen of getting rugged.
Twitter hates me. Elon Musk hates me personally with Vendetta. And eventually we always get
rugged. But we persevere
Okay, okay, well a moment of truth a moment of truth everybody scatter is trying to join
We've done it
I do not see you on stage as in I I do not see the account, it disappeared for me,
but I can hear you, which is all we really need for the intents and purposes of this space.
Perfect.
All right, everybody, now that we've actually gotten over these hurdles,
hi again.
Let me first welcome the speakers. So Scatter has just recently
announced joining Monad ecosystem on Testnet First. So maybe just via a brief introduction, guys.
Hi, how are you? And how has your day been?
Hi. Yeah, thank you for having us. Doing great. Very excited to talk today. How are you?
Absolutely wonderful. And R?
This is R on the Sc scatter account here like i can't no that's okay we have our uh we have our coo uh our chief
of operations and our uh design wizard three here with us as well oh amazing so yeah yeah we have
the full crew some of you here yeah more or less i mean you got a bunch of our um team in the uh
chat here as well we're all doing pretty I mean, it's kind of an easy day
for everyone to say that.
Like you said, charts are up.
NFTs are back, baby.
We're feeling good.
All right.
Well, if at any point
we are rugging again, everybody,
you can just like spam
the thumbs down button.
The reason I'm saying it is sometimes
like I can already tell
that we will be getting rugged today by the virtue of this joining, but that doesn't matter.
We are still going to power through. But if you feel that, you know, maybe someone is talking
over someone else, that person might just not hear the other person. So if you just
thumbs down emojis, then we will know that something is wrong. Okay, without further ado, I'm super, super excited and I'm going to jump straight into it.
Over the past weeks, I think one of the main topics on the spaces has been, you know, like, what does it mean for NFTs to be back?
And what types of infrastructure are actually needed for artists and NFT collections on the chain to be successful?
So this is precisely where I want to take the conversation today.
And let's start with, you know, what is Scatter?
Like I'm looking at your account right now, Twitter account.
It was created in November 2021.
The absolute peak start jumping board of the biggest NFT mania we've ever seen.
So tell us a little bit about your journey and what you do today.
Sure.
So I'll give you sort of the quick background.
So back in late 2021, probably about three weeks to a month before his twitter account was created um a uh famed artist political cartoonist
uh all around great mind stone toss uh launched his nft collection um which was called florks
um scatter didn't exist yet um as people who were around back then remember the general process was
every nft mint sort of had its own uh website as its minting
front end and you just went to the project's website and minted there um which is what flarks
did um flarks minted out to major initial success um raised something like i believe three million
dollars in something like six minutes it was a very quick sellout as a lot of nfts were then um and i wasn't
on the team then but the the flurks team was ecstatic very excited and then about
three to four hours later uh the collection was banned by openc because uh openc uh essentially
as we understand it deemed uh stone tossoss' humor and his politics unacceptable.
So in the wake of that, our CEO, who was on the dev team for that project, with Stone Toss' blessing,
set out to create a platform where Florks would be able to trade and Florks holders would be able to
interact with the secondary market
which was the initial purpose of scatter uh slowly we brought on a couple other collections that were
either having trouble with open sea or afraid they would have trouble with open sea
um and somewhere along the line it sort of became apparent that attempting to compete as a secondary
market uh was fine but it was sort of hard to break in there. And we thought we could do more good sort of as a launchpad, as a sort of cultural space
for these collections to begin rather than just to trade.
So we sort of pivoted from an alternative secondary marketplace to being a launchpad.
alternative secondary marketplace to to being a launchpad and then shortly thereafter
um linked up with uh remilia call the collective behind m'lady and um um
remilio and uh our first that was sort of our big first collaboration and the uh redacted
remilio babies uh minted on the uhatter platform, which I think was sort of Scatter's
debut for the world. And yeah, it's been sort of just taking it day by day since then.
Honestly, like that's such a badass backstory. And to everybody listening, this was not like a setup.
I literally just looked at the date that the account was created. And I anticipated you will,
you know, maybe join in with a little story about how you were inspired by nfts and you've built you've
been building ever since for the tooling sake but this this has been pretty pretty awesome
and to continue on this on this note like when you think back to like 2021 2022 and you think
back to now like think about right, what would you say is like the
major difference between these two separate timeframes for NFT specifically? Because,
you know, the way you started is very different from how NFTs operate right now.
So what has changed for Scatter specifically?
specifically yeah so obviously back when we started um and sort of for a few months before
that nfts had been really popping off right uh you can pretty much say you were launching an nft
and you were you know if you had any sort of following or any sort of cloud it was um
guaranteed to mint out everyone was launching nfts from you know people on crypto twitter all
the way up to large corporations and um but like the way you say like do you remember the times
when announcing like a black hoodie drop could pump your floor price by 50 percent
yes yes exactly so it was sort of uh the work almost did itself back then. And things have become, obviously, a little more subdued in recent years. But for us as a launchpad, it's almost, I mean, don't get me wrong, we would love it if everything was minting out and everything was pumping, but there are positives to it where like, you know, we're an artist first platform and our founders and our team really do care
about internet artists and providing internet artists a way to sort of trade in and profit
from their art that isn't just, you know, trying to sell commissions in the Twitter DMs.
And artists are always there, right?
So in a way that it's created the sort of the sort of uh coming down of nfts has sort of created an
environment where fortunately we're able to um know that we're interacting with people who really
want to do it and they're here because they believe in their art and they want to sell art
um as opposed to sort of people looking to jump on the looking to jump on a trend and of course
you still have those but um the the upside of uh the sort of
pullback in nfts has been that it's i think it's sort of inadvertently helped us in fostering a
very dedicated community um of both artists and art collectors who are here purely because they
enjoy it and to whom the sort of uh secondary market and the the potential profit is great, but it's secondary, right?
Secondary in the other senses, and it's not the primary motivator for them. And that's, I think,
been a big contributor to our longevity. So the environment's changed and it's been very
different. It looks like it's about to change again. But in terms of that shift from when,
you know, you could pump anything with the vag terms of that shift from when you know you could pump
anything with the vaguest of promises to now where you have to get a little more creative i would say
it's been uh both a gift and a curse uh there's been good sides and bad sides to it yeah and just
to build on that quickly as well like reptile kind of nailed it but um one of the like secrets of
scatter is how uh i even hesitate to use the word lucky because it's not an accident, right?
It's just that our convictions ended up being quite well placed.
It's, you know, we're like a bottom up type approach to, well, you know, what role do NFTs play?
You know, what do they do with blockchain technology that is useful and interesting and valuable to people?
Rather than top down in the sense of like,
we'll just build a marketplace and see what happens.
Everyone involved with Scatter from day zero
has been very intimately connected
and involved with creators, really revolutionary creators,
or at least more revolutionary than trying to, like you said,
drop a black hoodie merch run to pump the
bottom line or whatever.
We've been very involved with all of these people and we've discovered, I think, before
anyone else, like what people are getting out of being creative on the blockchain in
the sense that, you know, you asked that question, Karma, how does what's happening now compared to what happened in 2021 or any other bull run or whatever?
Well, it's interesting from our perspective, because even at the bottom of bottom markets,
we still have had collections show up, mint out out of nowhere and build absolute cultural empires
out of nothing.
So we've been like on the one hand a little bit insulated
from the big ups and downs of the market.
We certainly feel it like everyone does of course,
but we've also had this first hand experience of seeing the sort of fun people are having with NFTs
and that the really creative things they want to do with them.
And that's always been a big part of what we do at Scatter.
We're really celebrating and nurturing the creativity
people are bringing to the blockchain.
Really love it.
And quite frankly, the way I have perceived Scatter
as like a third party has been pretty aligned
with how you see yourself.
I mean, there is a reason why this Spaces is titled
the artist's first
approach. And I think when I announced the spaces, I basically titled it first something like,
you know, the indie marketplaces, but it didn't quite sit right with me. But I actually want to
go back to this. That's how I feel about it right now. I feel like nowadays we are very much seeing
the stratification of different NFT marketplaces.
You know, there is like the big blockbusters, like the populist stuff, which is volume first, like, you know, OpenSea and Magic Eden.
And then we have the only other way to survive is to really go artists first, indie first, increase the discoverability and increase the artist experience, like the quality
of that. And I feel like that's the path you're taking. One of the features on Scatter platform
that I really want to chat about today, which when I was exploring it, you know, when we were
initially talking about, you know, bringing it to Monad, for which I'm very grateful, super excited.
talking about, you know, bringing you to Monad, for which I'm very grateful, super excited.
But I was really, really, and forgive me the awful pun, I was charmed by the charms.
Now, let's chat about what are charms. I think this is a very unique feature of Scatter.
I'm actually surprised other marketplaces don't have it yet. So give us a short TLDR on charms.
it. So give us a short TLDR on Charms. Yeah, so Charms is actually sort of a newer feature. I
believe it was introduced, and three can correct me here if I'm wrong, but I believe it was back
in March we released Charms. And it was sort of a natural progression from what we've been doing
for a long time. You know, part of how we've sort of managed to
cultivate and keep our community is that
if you mint something on Scatter, particularly, you know, a collection that we have a hand in promoting heavily,
odds are you will get free mints and whitelists for
all the other
for any sort of many future mints on the platform um and that's that's a result of
uh we we sort of take great effort to connect our artists with one another to uh collaborate on
things like whitelists and freemans um so forever back to scatters inception um there was always
this matter of um you know we want to give the new n NFTs, we want to give the old NFTs entries into the new NFTs that launch on the platform.
And as the platform grew, there sort of became this issue where there were so many things launching on the platform that, you know, people were having to sort of scroll through our massive list of collections and click on things to
figure out what they've got freemints on, what they're whitelisted on.
And it was one of people's favorite things about the site, but it was sort of cumbersome
to navigate and people would miss their freemints or not be aware of them.
And so, Charms, for those of you who don't know, is basically a notification system built
into the Scatter UI.
You can click on it and it'll show you any freements and whitelists that you're eligible for on the Scatter platform.
And the reception has been great and people love it.
Honestly, it was something people were sort of asking for for a long time.
So we were very happy to get that out there. And as well as sort of making it easier for users, it's also almost doubles as a promotional tool for people launching on the platform. Right. Like if you know a particular NFT and you know that what you're launching sort of jives with that,
then you're sort of able to automatically send a notification essentially to all the holders of that NFT that you're offering them a free
mint or a discounted mint so it benefits both users and creators greatly and
yeah it's been it's been a real success and the feedback's been great. Three might
have more to say on Charms he was sort of actively involved in the development.
Three? Yeah yeah I won't waffle on too much because he covered the big ones.
But Charms is kind of a, it's a bit of a darling feature for Scatter.
It was actually the first, I had a bit of a, dare I say,
hair brain blueprint for 2025, which is getting increasingly more exciting.
So we're about to launch a couple of new big things as well.
But Charms was like the first milestone in that one.
It's been very well received.
And the entire impetus for things like Charms,
adding features like Charms,
is asking ourselves the question,
well, what can Scatter do that nobody else can do?
And I say that at the risk of, you know,
really fearing our secret sauce here a little bit.
But that's one of our strengths, right?
Like we know we're different
and we know that our users are kind of different as well.
We've got a lot of very like intangible,
almost inarticulable specialness at Scatter
on both sides of the business.
And Charms was like just such an obvious way
for us to work with that.
We have this special network effect effect which I came up with the idea was mentally thinking of a sort of like I don't know if this
holds up these days but especially when I was younger and I'd go to like the the record store
after school and pick up cds and then like back then you'd kind of have to do some blind buying and you could kind of tell
that certain record labels were almost guaranteed like if you'd never heard of another artist but
they were on a label you liked especially if it was like a small indie label you could be pretty
certain you were going to like whatever it was if it has some cool album art or whatever you could
grab it and you'd just be happy every single time. Scatter kind of has that effect as well because when you launch on OpenSea, for example, it
is a very broad pool of things going on there, right?
It's everything all in one place.
So there's no implicit relationship between all of those different collections.
And in fact, there's essentially no relationship between them all.
They're all their own thing fighting for top spot.
At Scatter, because of like just the intrinsic qualities of our community and our people,
they're like the digital come crypto native types.
If you launch on Scatter and you chuck a few free mints
to the collections that inspired you to launch on Scatter,
we wanted to A, make sure that the people
who were kind of paying that tribute were rewarded in some way,
and they're rewarded in the sense that everyone gets
a nice notification telling them, hey, check this out,
and it just increases that network effect.
So that was kind of the idea there.
We've definitely got a lot more of that kind of thing coming.
But, yeah, it's a very good example of what makes Scatter special, I think.
Yeah, and Acapella, I will go to you in a second.
I think you sent more emojis and reactions than everybody else in the spaces combined.
So I do know you have something to say on this.
But first, I wanted to say the absolute generational wealth I have fumbled by missing, not knowing or forgetting about the damn mints
I had access to um it's just mind-boggling so that's why I think this feature is a no-brainer
and also like in terms of discoverability I think it was punk 6529 or maybe Cosimo Medici they
recently posted a poll maybe like in the past 24 hours
and the poll was basically just a question like what do you think is the biggest value add
for like art collectors NFT collectors from the side of like the launch pad and marketplaces and
you know like tech is not really a mode like There are many options out there. But taste and curation is the biggest mode.
Basically, the discoverability was the outcome of the poll
was seen almost unanimously as the biggest value add of any potential platform.
How do you actually discover from the sea of slop more artists that you resonate with?
So definitely, this feature is something that I'm incredibly excited about
because it goes in that direction.
Your metaphor with the record labels was much better than everything I just went through,
but Acapella, what do you have to say?
I'm actually raising my hand to ask a different question on a totally different topic.
Well, in that case, I'm going to have to wait until the end of the spaces with that, okay?
Yeah, yeah, I'm going to wait.
And that sometimes happens when you have spaces where anybody can request to speak.
But going back to the main topic,
okay, we discussed charms,
we discussed the general platform functionality,
and this is actually what I want to drill into a bit deeper
for all the artists, all the project,
you know, CEOs to be and devs to be.
What is the launchpad part of Scatter?
And why is it special?
So the reason I'm asking is because we kind of like see many platforms
call themselves a launchpad, but their functionality
and the degree to which you can customize your Mint
is incredibly different amongst them.
So maybe if you could give all the artists listening to us today on Monad can customize your Mint is incredibly different amongst them.
So maybe if you could give all the artists listening to us today on Monad a breakdown of what they can do when they launch on Scatter,
that would be really useful.
Sure.
So Scatter,
we try not to sort of rush too hard into putting out features just to put out features.
You know, there's often, I think, at some other launchpad, some other marketplaces, there's this interest to sort of make sure you're on the latest trend.
sort of get make sure you're on the latest trend uh make sure you've got whatever's
immediately hot tense from 10 seconds ago out um so that you can sort of capture any of that sort of
uh fleeting activity as it happens and um that may be a strategic choice it may be because
you know people have their various sort of vc funders and backers who want to make sure they're
on top of things um we do have scatter has the uh luxury of sort of being funders and backers who want to make sure they're on top of things. We do have, Scatter has the luxury of sort of being bootstrapped and self-funded,
so we can sort of be picky and choosy with what we want to do and what we want to engage with.
So at every time we sort of ask ourselves, okay, we're going to donate,
we're going to dedicate resources to putting this, putting this feature in,
implementing this feature and then promoting it to our artists and our
users.
Is this actually going to make it a,
an easier experience to either create on the platform or is it going to
make it a better experience for users to mint on the platform?
Is there going to be an actual value add to the people who engage with our
platform every day by putting
this in. Because we are not interested in sort of dedicating dev resources and wasting
people's time implementing things that, you know, we might tweet about once and people
might be excited for two days. And then, you know, it's forgotten about in a couple days
time. So in terms of what's possible on scatter, there's obviously,
you know, you're automatically linked in with this sort of very niche, very interconnected
communities through functions like charms. But we are also sort of constantly observing and adding
new contract types. So we're about to roll out our new implementation of 1155 um randomized 1155s will follow soon
thereafter um and uh yeah there's we've got new new contract types cooking and coming all the time
um we launched a we had a uh 404 from stone toss launched back in december that was very
sort of cool and experimental and um yeah i mean if you
want to sort of get more i don't know if you have anything to say to that question uh three it's sort
of a broad question but um we're sort of very we're also sort of very open to white-gloving
things for people and and in the past people have come to us and said your site can't do this we
want to do this and now our dev team has sort of put it together for people uh you know
in in a very short period of time so it's it's really it is it is purely our interest to help
people sort of if someone has a vision and uh they're genuine and uh dedicated then it is it
is our mission and our our want to uh realize that by any means necessary yeah and that's kind of
exactly what i was going to expand
done uh quickly as well is it's another one about secret weapons right because we're so involved
with everyone who does anything at scatter um we have a couple advantages there so first and
foremost yeah um you know reptard kindly walked over some of the you know main things that create
that will benefit creators who launch on Scatter.
We've got some kind of novel contract types.
We've got more coming very soon.
The way we present and foster discoverability is a little bit different from other launchpads or other platforms in general.
We curate things in a way that's a little bit more about nurturing in a launchpad way,
if that makes sense.
But it's what goes on behind the scenes.
It's really the secret at Scatter, I think.
So a lot of people don't know this.
And we've actually got a few things in the pipeline that are going to make this a lot
more obvious to people in the near future, I think.
But one of the really amazing things, anyone who's ever launched a collection of Scatter
will be able to talk your ear off about this, if you launch with us you're probably going to talk to
our support staff right and i hesitate to even call them support staff because these guys are like
they're just total superstars right they're heavily involved in any collection any meaningful
or otherwise collection that launches on scatteratter, they're giving 24-7 assistance,
really specific technical help. But more importantly, when one of these creators that
we're working with and helping has a kind of crazy idea, we generally can't help ourselves,
but to go, okay, let's give it a whirl. Let's see what we can do here. So what we often do is we'll
experiment with some pretty out there things um in a bit of a like
a very white glove way we did a couple auctions very successful auctions we did the familiar
fruits collaboration as like a one-off thing we did the lady sigmata um auction as well and they
worked great but then we didn't quite see the value in the auction format as a general offering.
So we have these really unique opportunities to experiment and try really bespoke things,
see how they play out and see what the opportunity is like for the rest of our creators at large
before we really productize everything as well.
So that's been, yeah, like a real secret weapon.
But the main star of the show is just our
phenomenal support i think it's something no one else can even hold a candle to it's like if you
want to do something on scatter there are people who will uh go to the ends of the earth to make
sure that you launch a kick-ass collection that does as well as it possibly can
absolutely awesome and and someone in the in the comments has asked what does white gloving mean?
So I will just do like a one minute, you know, Eli 5.
So basically like to white glove something means to adjust it and customize it in, you know, ways that are normally not possible when you do something serially. So like a white glove marketplace would be you chat with the team, you determine the look, maybe you change the user flow entirely in some regards.
Basically, you input your design decisions into an existing product and it's being changed a little
bit for you. That's like what a white glove approach is. And it's very difficult to get it.
So really, really incredible to know that you guys are actually doing it.
And I think this is a very, very great opportunity for collections
which want that custom experience for their holders,
but are not quite able to get there themselves.
So what I mean in particular is, you know, we are right now in our
mainnet sprint on Monad. Like currently everybody's trying different things on testnet, but
mainnet is the big deal. And the disadvantage of launching on a launchpad, which I often repeat
to everybody asking me about it, is that you lose the ability of creating
a very special experience for your holders. Like very often the mint of your collection will be
what people will remember the most. And on a launch pad, it is usually just clicking, you know,
one to two buttons. However, if you do have a really good partner, sometimes certain amend additions are possible.
And it seems like in the case of Scatter, there could be some space here to make some white glove, like adjustable mints.
Yeah, so like a recent example of that, actually.
Just last week, we had Monokoro launch on the platform from our beloved partners over at Owakaki Connect.
Big shout out to Owakaki Connect.
And in sort of the interest of promoting that, we sort of had a Monochoro takeover of the site's design.
And there was a monochrome overlay on the site for a couple of days and a slightly different logo up and
anytime you open scatter you got a big uh mono sort of monochrome animation play across the page
um and that was really cool and the feedback on that was great so we're always interested in doing
those uh sorts of things for people and sort of um making mints even though you know we are a
launchpad we are you know one platform um we we
like to do what we can to make sort of every minting experience especially the big ones that
people are putting a lot of time and effort into uh feel special and and unique and memorable
because you're right um there's you know in the shift i mentioned earlier how nfts used to be
sort of every nft was on own website, minting itself.
You know, as things have shifted to Launchpad, there's the benefit that, you know, it's a little easier to not get drained now or rubbed because, you know, it's all coming from reliable smart contracts.
But something that's been lost in that is the sort of unique minting experience is built entirely around that collection.
So it's sort of always in the back of our mind to try and harken back to that
and maintain that while also reaping the benefits of being one sort of central platform launchpad.
Yeah, and it does give you a peace of mind when you're launched with platform launchpad. Yeah, and it does give you a peace of mind
when you're launched with a launchpad.
So, I mean, just to share my personal experiences here,
like once in a while,
I mint a free artwork for the community.
They're called MMs.
And, you know, it's free.
I earn nothing on it.
It's just for fun.
fun but i just have to let you all know if you've never launched an nft like you cannot fathom and
But I just have to let you all know,
if you've never launched an NFT,
imagine how stressful it is like i was just using you know like a free a free launch pad but i was
sweating i was like i i felt like the doom and gloom is about to happen i felt like it was the
last moments of my life and i was about to die of heart attack. This is how stressful it is.
And believe me, when it's already this much on the line
and you just pour so much love into art
and you want people to see it,
but then you have to delay
because you can't upload something.
It really is such a help for an artist
to have a very responsive partner
and Launchpad that will help you actually get you through this process.
So that is, you know, really fantastic.
If you're a team that doesn't have an experienced technical member, like going with the Launchpad will likely save you a lot of heartache.
I've kind of gotten to a point where I feel like the best way
is for majority of the mints that are, you know, like,
have been prepared for longer, are paid, etc.,
for them to be on tested launchpads, also for, like, security reasons.
And then the degen mints, the free mints, etc.,
like, that is the space to really explore
and just go completely wild with your mint experiences.
Actually, like, do you guys, like, I don't remember when the last time was
that I just participated in a completely degen mint.
That wasn't on MonatestNet.
Like, a proper degen mint that's just on some, like, sketchy website
and you have to use your hot wallet to not get drained
and then you get completely unhinged art. You like has anybody minted recently uh no i mean off of in terms of
just off of a a random uh dedicated website it's it's been a little while um but if if it's
unhinged art you're looking for where there's no lack of that scatter i'll tell you but uh no to your point yeah it's been a while and i think that is uh partially a result of um
platforms such as ourselves uh sort of just often being the the better and easier way to do it
and as well as i will i'll just add to what you were saying as well as the technical side i find
that sometimes uh working with us we're sort of able to uh help
people keep calm under the social pressure you know what i mean when you when you launch a project
especially if you've been doing um promotion and hype effectively in the run-up to your launch
if something goes wrong and you've got a delay or you know someone decides they have some problem
with something if it's your first project ever your first collection ever and you've got a delay or, you know, someone decides they have some problem with something,
if it's your first project ever, your first collection ever,
and you start getting, you know, sort of, uh,
mean or forceful or angry tweets in your mentions,
pressuring you to go this way or that way. Um,
it can be very easy to either a cave to that pressure, um,
and make decisions you might not otherwise, or B, um,
sort of just get paralysis,
get very nervous. People don't like me or no. So I think another purpose we sort of serve is
reassuring creators that they should, you know, follow their instincts and go with their gut.
And, you know, I think we're able to help tune out the noise sometimes for people who might not
necessarily be used to being inundated with demands and suggestions from all sides at all times.
So I would say that's another big benefit of the launch,
this sort of launchpad model for artists.
Yeah.
Oh, sorry, Free.
I was honestly just going to go on a tangent.
I keep remembering and, you know, fully agreed with you are on the scatter
account like i genuinely and deeply recommend every single artist listening to this to just
think or contact me and discuss which launchpad could potentially be the right one for you if
you don't have that technical support on the flip side if you if you are technical if you are a dev
listening to this like just go out there
and still create unhinged minting experiences because i'm about to tell you my most like fondest
memory of like the most unhinged minter i've ever seen so back like the year is 2022 i swear this
story will be short but the like the golden the golden bull run of nfts and i remember i love dj mints i just had like
a hot wallet on a separate like old laptop that i just used to mint everything that i could get
my hands on just for fun it was never ever worth anything i legit i'm the worst trader when it
comes to nfts but there was this minter you went to the page and it looked like an old Windows calculator.
And like on the calculator, there was like the two plus two equals.
Like it was pre-written.
And like the only thing you could do on the website was connect your wallet
and input the outcome of that sort of like equation,
which obviously like I input four and the website just like spat out like this was too
like mid curve of a take like we don't want you as holder of our collection and it booted me from
the website basically the only way to mint was to like get the answer to two plus two wrong and to
this day i think about this minter so fondly and i want to experience this again
yeah yeah and you know for anyone who wants to do those kind of things i should have mentioned this
in our feature and when we were talking about features earlier but we did actually i believe
shortly before charms uh roll out what's called our scatter api um so people can you know if they
want to make their own front end and they're they're perfectly happy
doing all that themselves they can actually take their own website and basically plug the
scatter factory contract into it and use the sort of guts and minting functionality of scatter in
their own front end so we do try to allow for that as well. And you can go, if anyone is interested in that sort of thing,
there's a blog post on the Scatter API on our Scatter blog.
So yeah, we try to be as flexible as possible
to facilitate any sort of experience
that people might want to cultivate.
Yeah, I'm glad you guys covered that
because I was going to say,
we're talking about like sketchy minting websites.
The first thought that comes to mind is like,
okay, thank God those days are over because it was it wasn't that long
ago we've all forgotten it used to be you would just load up like the dodgiest website you've ever
seen in your life and a lot of the time they were just intentionally terrifyingly dodgy uh you would
see a button that says connect wallet which um by the way is kind of insane that we were all clicking that button so, so readily.
People still do.
I know, I know.
And we use that terminology at Scatter as well.
I've had a lot of rants about it, but it is kind of endemic, like UX writing at this point.
It has a very specific semantic meaning, right?
But it is funny, isn't it?
Connect wallet, it's hilarious.
But yeah, like we had a lot of internal
discussion so on the one hand we want people who uh who want to have a very like simple launchpad
experience have the security of launching in our app and things like that predictable interface
and trustworthy interface to with but we know that a really important part of this nft culture is
just the craziest websites you've ever seen in your life so as uh reptile mentioned like we um do invest a lot in things like our partner
api doing really bespoke solutions for big collections doing some pretty crazy um custom
custom builds for example like if anyone wants to i think if you search for remilia fruits you'll
see one of our crazy uh like bespoke just cooked schizo websites it's like a website but it's all hand drawn for example
so we know that there's a lot of things for those sorts of things out there as well and we want to
support both of them oh my god i love to hear it bring Bring back Schizo Mints, please. Save NFTs, bring back Schizo Mints.
I was low-key expecting one of you to describe your favorite unhinged minting website.
So if you do remember one that's dear to your heart, like the 2 plus 2, 4 is to mine mine this is the time to tell the story
uh it's not exactly unhinged but i'll tell you a mint that has always stuck with me was
uh sort of way back at the beginning of nft mania at the beginning of that sort of nft hype cycle i
i minted uh forgotten wizards rune cult um which uh you know i believe they're still chugging along and
doing quite well for themselves but that was a really sort of incredible minting experience it
looked almost like a uh a nintendo game i'd never quite seen anything like it and i think that was
um the moment that struck me that nfts could uh be here to stay you know what i I mean? And that's where it really hit me,
that you could create these almost sort of...
I want to stop just short of using the word cinematic,
but I can't think of another term.
These sort of very kino, very memorable moments
through just the minting experience.
You know, whatever happens after that aside,
Forgotten Wizards was a big one for me.
I have fondly remember the mints of like youths back, like, because that went in a completely
different direction. That was like literally entire spaces of dgens, like talking for two
hours about like a circle jerk of how incredibly clean the website
is. Like the minting website was literally just like white background with black hover
pop-ups. It was like literally the most minimalist website ever, but people were just convinced it
was the second coming of Apple and Steve Jobs' vision. It's really, really funny. Like, I honestly could
just chat about, like, weird mentors for the entirety of the spaces, but alas, I cannot,
because we still have a few questions from the community to get through. So, by the way, guys,
like, if anybody here has a question, just put your hand up. But there were a few from regular listeners
who, you know, are either too shy to like really come on or they just wanted to submit them in
advance because they couldn't join us today. So the one question I really wanted to dive into
was actually like, what do you believe is the most important thing for a new artist to focus on?
So this is obviously a very broad question, but imagine you're a completely new artist.
Like you maybe have like 100 followers.
You've been a passive participant in different things in the ecosystem.
Like how can one actually kick off their NFT, their artistic journey?
And what would you recommend to them?
Like does anybody like here
on the stage wants to you know jump into it and also i can i can see that the scatter account
just disappeared oh no here you are here you are back back again uh yeah i'm here um i'll i'll
answer that briefly and quickly i i think for me um just having watched what's successful and what isn't, a good piece of advice, and perhaps it sounds trite, but a big part of it, I think, is not overthinking things. You know what I mean? I think people find authenticity very important.
um you know sometimes people uh you know they set up the twitter account for their project and
they've sort of almost there's almost these sort of uh blueprints or or copy paste formats for tweets
um that every new nft launch does and i think people sometimes feel like they have to post in
this way or that way and i think sometimes that can drive people away because it's like oh this is just another whatever mint so i i think um being
authentic um and you know post the way that your art feels you know what i mean it's about
cultivating a vibe and i think assuming uh you're a talented artist i think the rest often falls
into place and just uh on top of that uh you know uh get it out there. You know, don't be afraid to reply guy a little bit to people.
You know, don't be annoying.
Don't spam anyone.
But I think people are sometimes nervous about approaching bigger names or bigger projects about collaborations.
And, you know, the beauty of this entire industry as compared to others is that it's actually, you know, pretty easy to, you know, DM somebody with a net worth or a network that is 100x your own.
And the chances that you'll get a response and get some serious engagement are actually pretty good.
So, you know, cliche as it might sound, I think the biggest thing is really just put yourself out there and see what happens.
And I think if you're genuine and if you're authentic,
the good results will follow.
Yeah, and I'm a pretty firm believer
that it's like two really crucial pillars
to successful NFTs.
And say this is someone who got involved in this space,
like as an artist who felt very kind of abandoned
by the options available to artists
before NFTs kind of came along.
One part is actually pretty simple.
And it's one that everyone overlooks, right?
Which is play to the intrinsic qualities of crypto,
of the blockchain.
There's a lot of things that come with blockchain technology
that we just all forget about
because we get a little bit too excited sometimes
about speculating on all of these NFTs
and waiting for them to moon and everything. that's you know that is a part of
it it's a big part of it but uh there are some absolutely divine um elements to working with
blockchain for one is digitally permanent you know the provenance is built in um all of those
qualities are often overlooked and i'd strongly encourage everyone to work with those
in some meaningful way.
Think to yourself, what can I create
that's going to take advantage of the fact
that these things are going to be baked into the blockchain
for all of history until the sun explodes?
There's some pretty exciting things
that can come from that line of thinking.
And then on the other side,
Reptide kind of talked about this already,
but having your own voice is the most important thing here. And I always have to say this with a little bit of an asterisk,
because we know that derivatives still go crazy.
They're probably always going to go crazy, right?
But that's kind of another thing.
But having your own voice and having your own identity is so important.
You really look at the fact that, you know, I mentioned earlier,
we've had explosive mints come at the bottom of
the worst markets we've ever seen that no one ever expected. And it's because what people are
investing in when they, you know, purchase, when they mint these NFTs, is they're investing in
your idea, in your vision, right? So if your vision isn't something they've never seen before,
right? So if your vision isn't something they've never seen before, it doesn't speak to them in
some like inarticulable way that only visual creativity can, and it doesn't always have to
be visual, you know, it's all very open-ended, then it's like you're really missing that opportunity.
And it's an opportunity that kind of only comes once in a lifetime, right? Because as we've seen
in the art world especially in modern
history things kind of get stuck a certain way so before nfts came along your only two options were
be one of the best artists in the world and be lucky enough to go work in the entertainment
industry so one of the dozen companies who will hire maybe a dozen artists each and that's it
that's your only real career option there if you want to be like a real big, big generation defining artist.
Or you go the academic art route, which has, you know, just gatekeeping upon gatekeeping upon gatekeeping and not the good kind.
So, yeah, play to the intrinsic qualities of blockchain and just have a voice and have a very deliberate voice.
Yeah. And Zane, I will go back to you in a second.
I really wanted to just piggyback off of what said what you said free um i actually used to work in the traditional art market in
an academia before uh sort of like pivoting to web free and i can very much like firsthand confirm
like the traditional path of an artist via you know like a fine art academy, which you attend not really to learn
something new, but you mostly attended to build a network of collectors, of people who will push you.
It is all gatekeeping all the way down, always has been. And it's actually like very,
very surprising to me still. And we've just done such a bad job of evangelizing NFTs
and this entire space to the artist community
because like they see NFTs as a plague
when in reality, like this entire web free space is the savior.
It is genuinely like the artistic retribution
and freedom to create with access to all the people who could potentially care about your art.
Instead of, you know, like 10 old pricks in your city that are going to, you know, circle jerk and buy whatever the latest critic is going to tell them to buy without any discernment or on taste.
So, I mean, obviously I'm going a bit overboard here, guys.
But like you get the the the the point like it is mind-boggling to me that the artistic crowd still perceives
this vertical of the digital world as something so scammy and inauthentic when in reality it directly aligns with their you know potential
new optionalities like yeah i guess we all gotta gotta do much much better when it comes to
to evangelizing the space i do think um on that i think also sort of going back to what's changed
between 2021 and now i think another benefit of this sort of die down and hype has been
um maybe not our academia just yet but at the very least the sort of average
non-crypto normie um whereas back then nfts were everywhere and sort of constantly
being uh put in people's faces no matter uh how good a project was no matter you know what it was or what it was doing
um people heard the word nft and there was sort of a knee-jerk reaction and it's like oh no nfts
those are scams i don't like those um as that hype has sort of faded away i feel like people
who are less sort of tapped in have more been able to uh look at projects individually and it's not
just this is an NFT therefore I
don't like it it's more what is this oh this is cool I do like it oh and it's an NFT so I do feel
like we're making gains in that regard which is very cool and I think I don't know if that would
have been possible if the hype crane had sort of you know kept running it at full bore as it had been. Yeah, I'm fully convinced that we will see, like,
we will see a full 180 when it comes to the digital art community.
And there very much will come a moment when we will feel vindicated
for all the hate we were getting.
But it's a slow crawl until then.
And God knows we have our, you know, like the NFT space does have its fair share of, you know, skeletons in the closet that are difficult to defend.
But, you know, we are we're entering towards this delight.
Zane, I want to go to you and then I want to hear from Lil Blue.
I think it will be really fantastic.
She's an artist and she's been growing in the Monat ecosystem recently.
So it will be lovely hearing from her
how this journey has been for her but zane you first yeah um thank you i think uh i just wanted
to drop a thing uh from what the scatter account said earlier uh what nfts like need to do in my
opinion it's kind of like returning to the fundamentals and the fundamentals of like nfts have always been like experiences
like uh use uh nfts as kind of like vessels to enable experiences it could be like physical
experiences it could be um you know social emotional things like um you know all these
meetups plushies these are like uh the things that should center around nfts and i think if we kind of like trace this
back to history at least uh like 2020 2021 if you look at how nfcs became like a meta
it was true experience you know people wanted to uh you know relate with their favorite basketball
players they wanted to have a feeling of having having some sort of like resonance with their favorite basketball players, although on-chain this time around.
So, you know, that part, that's like the power of, you know, blockchain, the fact that you
can feel like you have full ownership over these things, because the truth is, if they
buy like all of these cards, like in centralized, what's it called applications the marketplace can decide to like
just rock them or something they basically don't have self-sovereignty over their assets but you
know um they now feel the sense of like um ownership over like every uh stage of uh this
experience so i think nfc just needs to like go back to that route and you know be intentional about wanting to build slowly because
you know nfts are not uh readily liquid assets so you need to optimize um like its weakness is
also a strength in certain ways because you know the fact that it's not readily liquid means you
can now focus like you can remove all the parts that relates to always price going up and whatnot
and then just like focus on how can I enable the best experiences for my users how can I create
the strongest resonance and you know well what was I even about to say before so you remove this
culture of like instant gratification because you aren't like asking people to buy NFTs or like mint NFTs with the
hope of like oh you likely can sell this for several thousands of dollars but
you're like creating a culture where people are minting these NFTs because
they resonate with like the inherent culture oh I like this art oh I like
this whatever like there's a large like surface area so I
think my NFC is just needs to be like intentional and the truth is in opinion
I think NFC is that do take time and viewed hype or rather like viewed our
culture tends to like last to the test of time because things that are like
forged true you know real day-to day things. When things like turn upside down, these guys will still see.
Unlike when, oh, everyone is just excited because one person like shielded these NFTs.
One's price doesn't go up big, like everyone turns over.
So I just really need to see more, you know, NFT like founders.
you know nfc like founders i think nfcs are really really hard like they are super hard to do
I think NFTs are really, really hard.
because it takes like so much commitment like to to create like a really good nfc collection that
can't stand the test of time so you know as a founder if you're trying to like do an nfc collection
you need to be like confident like that yes this is something you are willing to like follow through
to the end and this is something you want
to use to create experiences for people then whatever um comes out on top of that is going
to be like the value add oh the price goes up that's like a value add it's not like the core
what's it called it's not like the core um what's it called principle that you're trying to like
push so that's just why i think about it yeah and that cultural aspect
is something that really resonated with people early on i mean you know one of the reasons why
the pfps became such cults is because it helped you like easily recognize people that were like
minded on the timeline so like i mean even right now know, you can immediately recognize who is really into Monad on these spaces by, you know, the collections, you know, on Monad Testnet or like, you know, just the style, you know, from your Monad native artists.
So it's always been like a part of this like culture of self-identification and like self-ascribing yourself to a cult of one blockchain over the
other and identifying who might be you know like-minded like I've always seen PFPs as a
little bit of like a flag a little banner that you hold up to to more easily like you know signal
your social status and your social interests um definitely, definitely aligned with you on that.
And I wanted to go to Blue.
Little Blue is a wonderful artist in Monat.
She is building Monamour.
Do check her feed out.
It's like a very, very heartwarming, very, I don't know,
I want to see on the verge of unhinged and heartwarming styles.
But Lil Blue, how has it been for you in the first months of building and becoming an NFT artist?
To be honest, it has been quite frantic.
Zane said that the NFT founders should be confident and blah, blah.
I agree, but I am not like that.
I'm the opposite exactly.
But to be honest, I think the NFT founders should just be excited.
Like, believe in what you're doing.
You don't actually kind of believe it.
Like, there's always in the back of your head that,
okay, I'm going to fail and I'm going to fail and et cetera, et cetera.
But it's like, you just need to kind of believe it and
believe that you want to produce what you feel like should be out there and this is like the
main reason that I started I had the idea that this should be on MOLAND so for me that was
enough motivation to actually try to put a part of myself into it and kind of just push it out there and see
what happens like i'm not sure if it's gonna fail if it's gonna succeed or whatever my goal is
actually to when everything happens and it launches and everything i will be satisfied that I have created what I wanted and believed that should
be on Monod as an NFT.
So, yeah, okay.
So the last month, I think, has been a lot and too little.
Like you get, you never get to the point where you want to be.
Like you just create and create and the more you create and the more the more sleep
you get deprived you kind of get more creative or at least that's what happens to me like that
insomnia paranoia really works so maybe this is the unhinsed part you get in the art i don't know
but yeah it actually works and the more you work on it the more it works on you and it works back
and and it's really fun.
That's the conclusion.
I think the deal, the art of being an NFT founder and doing things is just fun.
You can just do things.
You can just have fun.
Yeah.
And I think when you actually do it, that kind of shows.
actually do it and that kind of shows and the great thing that i believe about nfts is that
it actually it's not about the art it's not about the culture that much it's just that
when you create something and that actually has an identity and a character and you kind of feel it
and that feeling kind of it's the culture of making groups of like-minded individuals.
Like the specific aesthetic attracts other people with a specific aesthetic.
And in that aesthetic, you kind of imply other, let's say, personality traits of something.
So it kind of glues together in a way you cannot really understand the mechanic 100% or why is that important.
But in a societal Web3 structure or whatever, it actually works. And I really like the way it
works, kind of works itself into, let's say, making a group of friends of like-minded individuals.
Yeah, back to that social identity, right? Like, like you said, like certain people are attracted by certain styles by certain traits. And, again, I think PFPs, like all these NFT communities, they've also flourished so hard, because being in crypto is in itself a pretty lonely endeavor.
lonely endeavor.
So what I mean by that is majority of people who are really into crypto,
they very often don't have anybody else like in real life that they can talk
about this passion to.
I mean, maybe some of you are really lucky and you have IRL friends who,
you know, like you can discuss the yields on the latest protocol with.
But for most people, it's just them sitting in front of a computer
and having to
find friends there and i think the reason what that you know crypto was so marginalized and
everybody was so scattered around the world for such a long time really helped build these like
insular niche communities because people were serving for their tribe
i think that's a good point sorry i was I was just going to say, I think, I think what you said is just then, uh, karma is totally true. And I just say, I think that speaks to the importance of, um, targeting crypto natives rather than, uh, you know, trying to pull in, um, you know, trying to be the NFT that's going to bring in bring in you know all the normies and non-crypto
people it's fine if you want to do that but in terms of forming a community i think uh you're
right it is crypto people looking for a community who might not necessarily have that community in
real life and i i think you know i've talked about this with people before and i think the
you can going back to the when nfts were big uh you can
compare sort of you know if you look at uh board api club and m'lady maker right uh board api club
took this approach of uh you know very much trying to get themselves in front of non-crypto people
um in front of sort of just you know everyday you know users who may be aware of
crypto maybe not and they did that through celebrities endorsements and this and that and
it brought them a lot of success temporarily um but you don't really see and and look i'm not i'm
not exactly tapped in with the yuga stuff so i don't mean to be smart to anybody but you don't
really see anymore an active board ape community um on the timeline on crypto twitter like you did during that hype cycle when prices were high
meanwhile uh the remelia team over at milady maker very actively uh you know made themselves
and pursued being a web3 native crypto native-chain native, however you want to put it, sort of extremely online community.
And I think that's a big part of what's brought them longevity.
And that's why you still see people Milady posting.
That's why you still see sort of these large networks of Milady's and Remelio's
building things and deploying and sort of injecting that culture into everything that they do.
injecting that culture into everything that they do.
Yeah, it almost feels like every single chain also needs a Remilio derivative.
And it almost always becomes one of the most favorite PFPs.
My mental model on this is actually that I think M'Lady and Remilio
became one of the edgiest, most unhinged spoke pieces and mouthpieces for very French opinions.
And by proxy of that, it's almost like all this edgy culture of being in Web3, which is becoming more and more mainstream now.
Like we are becoming pretty much accepted now. Like crypto is a new asset class now for everybody um but i almost
feel like the remelia and milady like are like carrying the banner of this very fringe very
hardcore culture where you know i'm anonymous like no one can tell me what to say um i will be you
know like as direct on the timeline as possible and they really managed to create and keep that
culture relevance in a honestly in a very unique way like i don't think there is a second
collection which is so incredibly inherent to the online cult. But yeah, Stuxnet, go ahead.
Do you disagree with me?
Hey, no, I don't inherently disagree with you.
Real quick, I just want to say thanks for having me on, having Scatter on.
What I do think is important for my ladies in the space,
because like you're right, they do carry the banner and a lot
of us here met through this cult. A lot of art has come out of Milady's banner, but I think it's
really important that people who are coming into our space and into Scatter, look around, lurk a little bit, and that artists that do
exist within Milady space continue to launch on these other chains.
But I think it's really important that our people do it.
And I think that's why Scatter's history is so rich and that people should look and see
what's on there see the artists have
launched on there there's a term in the milady circles that we call uh mihad which is you do
see a lot of big collections on other chains come from artists that have launched on scatter there's
a lot of names i can't i don't really want to say because i don't want to give them too much spotlight
and people sometimes people get upset about it, but it is really important.
And I think that when you do see these other derivatives launch on chains, like that's expected at this point.
But I think it's really important that like I do see a bunch of artists that I know in the audience, a bunch of friends.
that I know in the audience, a bunch of friends. I love you so much. To them, I really hope that
I love you so much.
you guys keep launching with us on these other chains because it's important that we continue
to cultivate that culture outside of just what we know, right? So I didn't, I kind of naturally met
a couple of Monad people like Slow. I was just following him because I liked his art.
And then I hopped in his space.
You know, I talked to a bunch of people.
My PFP was already purple.
Like, you know, my hair, my shirt, you know, I was already like, I was like, oh, Monad
is stux coded.
You know, Monad told me and I got into a space and I talked to everybody and I talked to
a bunch of people and there's a lot of great artists. I'm, I'm so why I guess I think
I'm really bullish on Monad is, is there is such a rich push and culture for NFTs, which you don't
really get to see a lot of places, a lot of places, you know, they're pushing, um, you know,
liquidity farming and trading, and that's good and on its own right
but as far as keeping the pace and keeping that culture alive I do think that's where scatter is
at the heart of things so um I do want to say I love you to all my friends in the audience as well
and that's it you know that's my little two cents.
Thanks for having me up here.
Of course.
This was really amazing.
And, you know, oh, Slow, I see you unmuted yourself.
Go ahead.
Give some love back.
Love you, Stux.
Oh, I love you too, Slow.
Wonderful.
No, Slow, also another incredible artist incredible artist really really love his aesthetic very unique
very like you know chronically online um with a touch of existential crisis um that's how i
would describe it i don't know if you if you subscribe to this description slow
i'm now being the live critic here.
I'm just a mentally ill guy with a computer.
That's a very slow thing to say.
Also very slow coded, but no, this was really fantastic. The last, I know that we need to be wrapping up
and apologies to the community members
whose questions I couldn't get to,
but I, you know, like we need to let the scatter team go. So for today, the spaces will be over, but I will be get to, but we need to let the Scatter team go.
So for today, the spaces will be over.
But I will be getting to all of your questions in comments
and I will just do my best to answer all of them in writing.
And we can also touch upon some of them next week.
The conversation just took a completely different direction
than in some cases we anticipated, but it was fantastic.
And one last topic I wanted to sort of like chat or more likely like share my thoughts on is stux you said
you know monad is really growing the nft scene i honestly think nfts are very downstream from
organic active community like we've had so many chats about this on the team,
you know, like for me as NFT lead,
what is it that I should be doing
to actually get the NFT space in a good spot?
And I think the answer is like, you really can't force it.
Like you either have a very active community
that creates its own culture
and NFTs just happen downstream from that active culture.
And all you can do is, you know, get the right infrastructure in place, get the right resources in place, like, you know, educational spaces, places where we can come together like this.
we can come together like this. That's all you can do. Like you can't force it. And you either
That's all you can do.
Like, you can't force it.
have that, you have that active community that takes those steps, like Lil Blue said, you know,
you just have to do it. You have to like get the courage to become the artist, to, you know, do
your first mint, or you don't. And I guess we are doing all we can for the community that is here
and is so grassroots because it has been growing for so many years now that we are lucky we have this community we have the the collections
and art created by actual community members who care who have been here for years instead of you
know like a few like pseudo marketing agencies that are spitting out regurgitated slop, you know, before getting
on to the next every single couple of weeks. So truly, truly grateful and certainly doing
everything and anything we can to just give all of you guys the right tools. And feel free to
reach out to me at any point if you feel like there's something lacking, there's something missing, and we could be doing something better. In this case, I also wanted to, you know, big, big thank
you to the entire team at Scatter. You guys have been absolutely incredible to chat with, work with.
I'm looking forward to the first mint I can do on the platform, and maybe this is something we can
wrap the spaces with. When do you anticipate the first mint on scatter
on Monad Testnet to happen?
On Testnet, I'm not entirely sure
when the first thing will happen.
I can say, though, when Mainnet goes live,
we will have Monofuku Cafe,
which is an incredibly beautiful collection coming from some people we've worked with before.
That'll be launching on Monad on Mainnet day one is the plan.
So that's sort of our current big plan for Monad.
And in terms of testnet stuff, keep an eye on our Twitter.
Jump in the Scatter Discord.
It's discord.gg slash scatter
keep an eye out for things and we will
we're very good at getting the word out when things
are happening. So stay tuned
and also to any
to anyone in this space who may be looking
to launch on either
Monad Testnet or Mainnet
when it comes, I encourage you to
jump in our Discord,
get a ticket open,
and you can have sort of an open line of communication with our entire team.
We're all on Discord all the time.
And yeah, we look forward to hearing from you.
And Karma, thank you so much for having us today.
It's been a lot of fun.
Yeah, likewise, Karma.
Thanks so much.
We've actually already seen quite a few people trickling into
our discord so we strongly encourage anyone interested in that and doing something with
scatter to jump on in get involved the testnet has actually been a moment silently launched so
we could see our first testnet collections any day we've been blown away by the manad testnet
nft turnout in general so we're very excited to see what happens
but yeah guys if if you're bullish on manad and you want to have some fun launch with us over at
scatter we want to see your chogs we want to see all of your nads we want to see whatever you've
got we're going to have a pretty loaded day zero launch lineup i think because we've actually had
i'm not going to say overwhelming just yet,
but perhaps even an uncharacteristic amount of people
who are like do or die wanting to launch something big
the second mainnet hits.
So you're going to be in very good company
and everyone's going to be firing at all cylinders.
So come join us, guys.
Scatter.art.
The first few weeks of Monad mainnet are going to be,
I'm just going to say, you know, like dump your girlfriends, boyfriends, get some sleep in advance.
Because for anybody loving NFTs, I feel like it's going to be a true marathon, guys.
It's going to be such a vibe together.
And we're definitely going to be minting lots of stuff live together on these spaces.
So glad to have you on board, Scatter, as we sprint towards that.
And to everybody listening today,
thank you so much, guys.
