right now yeah i don't uh i don't know man i really love the platform but
i wish they would get their shit together um kenny powers i was not expecting to see you today
yeah i wasn't expecting to be here either, but you know what?
What'd you do? Leave Lake Charles early?
Or what'd y'all do?
I got home last night at like
1-something.
Yeah, we left last night.
We were going to leave this morning, but we decided
to leave last night instead.
Yeah, so I'm here.
Nice. Okay, Well, good.
Let's go, dude.
Kenny Power showing up and showing out the day after the Super Bowl.
Would have never – would have definitely never guessed on it.
How was the – how was your – I'm assuming you watched the Super Bowl.
Yeah, it was fucking awesome.
I made some money fucking cleaned up on Seattle and some prop bets.
Yeah, made some money playing poker it was a
fucking good trip man i'm not gonna lie nice uh yeah i mean it was you know from a like fireworks
like point like uh you know a lot of scoring it was not it was not that type of game uh
i know that for fucking a fact yeah no i mean it was relatively it was a defensive
fucking battle uh but man i just it went the exact way i thought it was gonna go i was hoping
it i wanted to see mike vrabel um you know i wanted to see him get a win new england bro but
it obviously did not happen um all right i'm trying to leave and come back
uh but yeah a lot of people uh cooked on that but i mean seattle was like five and a half point
favored were they not four and a half oh okay that's still quite a bit. You know.
Yeah, yeah.
CJ Stroud, I mean, fucking Drake made with CJ Stroud version two last night.
He was, that kid was clueless on what to do.
Yeah, he looked pretty bad pretty much the entire game.
He had one good pass down the left sideline for that touchdown.
But other than that, man, he got shut down.
Seattle's defense is good. That's what the Texans
should have done to them. If C.J. Stroud
didn't have the worst game possible of any
playoff game ever a few weeks
back, we would be here right now, but
it's all good. What'd you make of the
a couple of commercials last night. You had
Coinbase and you had
Crypto.com's AI.com.
What did you make of both of those?
Yeah, the Coinbase one, I don't know.
I did see it.
It was kind of hard because we're at the DraftKings Sportsbook in the casino.
So it's like, you know, you got tables set up.
So it's like a bar with like reserved tables and stuff.
So we had a good seat in front but like they weren't putting they were putting the volume on but there was still music
playing in the background so it was kind of hard to hear uh the commercial looked pretty basic i
really didn't get a chance to like really watch it but uh yeah i don't know i hadn't watched the
coin i seen the ai uh the ai.com one but the coinbase when i missed it i hadn't watched the I seen the AI.com
one but the Coinbase one I missed it.
I hadn't went back and watched the video.
Kyle was saying it was
basically NSYNC.
It was an NSYNC
fucking karaoke
but it was doing it
with the writing.
Who told you that?
I thought you told me that.
Nah, I didn't watch any of this.
Maybe that was YG.
Oh, yeah, that's right.
I totally missed.
I missed the whole thing.
What were you doing last night?
I took the dog hiking in the frozen winter tundra.
We went to the reservoir that I usually hike around,
and it was so butt-ass cold that we just did a short loop
around the water surface on top of the frozen water.
I was doing my Jesus thing, you know, walking on water, you know what I'm saying?
And then I got home, ate some dinner with the wife,
watched some Winter Olympics, watched a good bit of the figure skating
because my wife's into that.
And then I started watching Fallout.
Oh, and i did also see
i gotta say i don't i don't care who won the super bowl the number one winner yesterday on
the internet was definitely that white woman on the subway but we don't gotta get into that
wait your wife didn't want to watch bad bunny uh my wife's actually definitely a big bad bunny fan
um i know there's like a lot of controversy around that. I don't get it personally, but yeah, whatever.
Well, I mean, I'll give you my take on it.
And I'm not a Super Bowl fan or I'm not an NFL fan.
I mean, I got I like, you know, I've watched the Super Bowl before.
I've had fun watching it.
It's enjoyable to watch, but I'm not like a big time football fan.
I do get like where the NFL is kind of at like a glass ceiling with their viewership.
So like, I don't know.
I mean, if I'm just going to be objective, you know, put down my American flag for a moment and pretend like I'm just totally objective here.
I could see why they might want to attract, you know, it depends on how you look at it, but it's either
the second or fourth most spoken language group of people on the fucking planet to view their
sport, right? A lot of these sports are international, you know, football or soccer,
as it were, is like an international sport that people watch all around the world.
Football, American football is kind of siloed into just America.
So the idea of attracting this entire Spanish-speaking audience
I think is a good idea.
I will say this.
Now that they've done that,
I hope they go fucking American as fuck next year
to, like, re-win back the hearts of their, you know,
their supporters for, you know, their entire existence.
Because I know a lot of people were pissed about it, but it's like, I don't know.
I mean, from a business standpoint, I find it hard to make the argument that it wasn't
a good idea.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, it's just a fucking halftime show.
It's like, people need to chill out.
Look, I mean, I get it, right?
It was in Spanish, whatever.
Who cares?
Who fucking cares?
It's a halftime show, bro.
It's entertainment.
If you're watching it for football, it shouldn't really fucking matter who's playing at the
halftime show.
I think it's overly politicized, obviously.
I mean, it's not that big of a deal.
But yeah, to your point of trying to expand internationally, there's going to be the first nfl game ever in fucking australia next year they had games in germany this year that
games in england next year they're going to have games in rio de janeiro as well in brazil
so clearly they're trying to integrate international games trying to integrate the game
worldwide so i mean yeah it's okay to have a fucking halftime show from somebody
from another country. I mean, like,
yeah, you're trying to expand
the empire, right? Yeah, dude.
Why should America have all the CTE, right?
I just, I don't think it's
that big of a deal. I don't fucking get it.
I mean, I like the
fucking hot bitches that were dancing
at the halftime show. That's what I like.
Well, let's go
i'll tell you what bro you go south of the border and some bad bunny comes on them
fucking them ladies down there be wild and when bad bunny come on you get that reggaeton music
fucking going down south of the border bro is wild i frequent columbia regularly and it's because of
reggaeton in the clubs because let me tell you something bro
if you want to see a spectacle go to columbia that's all i gotta say uh bag mafia what up
yo i just hope you guys will follow it's first time in the space let's go bro nice to have you
up here what's good hey you're the first rando that's come up on stage and not just yelled a
slur and then left in a while so So thank you for that. We appreciate your participation
Yeah, did you watch the halftime show what were your thoughts i don't fucking watch football
come on bro he watched his uh he watched his figure skating along with kyle uh
look say what you want but i was watching beautiful women in leotards fucking slide
around ass first yesterday while you guys were watching giant men play with balls.
So, you know, we take that one.
A football.
I'm laughing by myself.
My guy's contradicting himself.
I'm not contradicting myself.
You're from the South.
Any though.
I don't know who the host is.
Oh, an idiot.
Yeah, that's me.
Are you from Texas, Oklahoma?
Which one?
I'm from Pennsylvania, but Appalachian, Pennsylvania, not urban Pennsylvania.
Yeah, we out here in the woods.
How about before that?
Before, I was born.
I mean, if we're going to.
He's trying to dox you. he's trying to talk to you an idiot
i'm yeah i mean i was born i was born in jacksonville florida but i was only there for a
little bit i've lived in pennsylvania forever but nice to have you bro yeah dude this is a pretty
country panel i mean i'm pennsylvania appellation jesus is tennessee appellation kenny powers is Pennsylvania Appalachian. Jesus is Tennessee Appalachian. Kenny Powers is from Texas.
So, yeah, dude.
I'm glad Machiavelli's up here because, Machiavelli,
you were super excited about this Death Star shit, and I would like some clarity on why you were bullish on this Death Star
that's launching in an hour and 45 minutes.
Because you were fucking, I mean, short of...
You're all going to fucking die, Jesus.
You're all going to hell, Jesus.
The Death Star is going to fire off here shortly, brother.
What is so bullish about NFTs dropping 20%?
Brother, it's not NFTs dropping 40%.
I think that there's, yeah, 20%.
It's not like they're just going to buy them and toss them on the floor,
hoping that somebody scoops them up and trying to lower these floor prices.
Essentially, they've created a strategy that like gamifies this space and and utilizes
like kind of the the token strategy mechanic to have fun and kind of like poke the bear
across the way and i think that that's actually pretty fucking amazing
who's talking chest who's talking what
yeah yeah like make sure bag familia i am your father go ahead go ahead yes um no uh so i i just
i think that it's a great opportunity to you know have you know some fun right here and like listen
who knows if this thing's gonna pop
off right but you know you guys are looking at it's like oh they're lowering my nft floor prices
20 nah bro it's gonna be sold in their marketplace so somebody will buy that and then either keep it
or list it for floor or whatever you know what i mean um but i i think that this is there's some
fun to be had here and and honestly there's a
chance for all these other communities to form the rebellion and the rebellion goes and buys that 80
percent or 20 uh discounted nft and then goes and raises the price and sells it for 20 above floor
you know so there is some gamification here in the space that I think people aren't really like paying attention to it.
They just think, oh, 20% down.
All right, so hold on.
So let me get this straight.
So they buy the NFTs, and then they're listing them on their own marketplace, not on an OpenSea or Magic Eden or Blur.
The Rebellion.
The Rebellion.
Yes. Kyle. I just don't understand how they make any money is my I got this and I see gifted to me sorry bag mafia we tried but you won't shut the fuck up i don't i don't fucking know
yeah he doesn't even know what the fuck we're talking about um apparently you know yeah all
right so so yeah so it's gonna be on if it's on their own marketplace i don't give a shit
because that means it's out of sight out of mind the nfts people aren't gonna be here's the deal
let's say today that this thing is successful okay and you know i'm i'm gonna dump like six figures into it nothing
big you know just a little something but listen you know they go and they buy all 25 moon birds
and raise the lower the price of moon birds to one eth okay let's say all 25 moon birds get bought
then they get sold on the secondary, then they cycle back through.
I mean, that's just NFT warfare.
If you go back and listen to the show yesterday, and Henry the Great came on to the Loki show, NFTs and stuff like that.
Yeah, I was listening.
He just has like this angst.
You know, he said some things that resonated with me very much so.
He said like, yo, we were trying to go the IP route.
We were trying to do the cute little plushies and the, you know, look at our NFT and it's more than just an NFT type shit.
And he's like, it wasn't for my community.
He's like, my community did not give a fuck about any of it.
We went to VCon.
They didn't care.
You know what I mean?
We did all of these things.
They don't care.
He said, but as soon as we do something degenerate, they all stand up and line up behind it. When we bought the second room never etched, they stood up and lined up behind it. You know, so like there's this overarching theme for them to where it's like, this has always just been who they are. And they've never really been able to step out of that shell and execute on it. And this is them saying, you know what? We fought off the FCC.
We've done all these other things.
We tried to go the pudgy route.
We tried to go the board A route.
We tried to do all of these things.
That's not us.
We are DGens at heart.
We are a bunch of Sith Lords, and anybody can catch this smoke.
You know what I'm saying?
I love it.
I mean, I get – okay, so so hold on i get the whole pep
talk thing behind it and uh it's funny and all that but what i don't understand is how
how does it make money like token works is buying nfts selling them above floor using the profits
to burn a percentage of the supply all that right like i get that i don't understand how the fly
wheel on this works i don't understand how it if it don't make money, it don't make sense. Right. So tell me how it makes money. Some people just want to watch the world burn, Mr. Wayne.
I wish I was on the Death Star team.
You know, I wish I was filling you guys in with all of the appropriate knowledge.
I am just an innocent bystanding Sith Lord over here just waiting to participate.
But like I said, I just think it's exciting.
I think, you know, it's a different approach to this entire situation.
And will it work?
I don't know.
You know, but let's see how it operates.
Let's see if they are able to acquire enough fees
that it actually does have an impact.
What if it kicks off today and they sweep the floor of Moonbirds
and lower the price down to one ETH?
That's crazy.
That would be crazy.
It is, but how is that beneficial for Moonbirds?
It's not supposed to be beneficial.
I know, but why build something that's a degeneracy like like this to
target oh listen it makes it makes communities band together and and start to work and and and
say hey this is our thing we're going to protect it and i think that you know we can't control
anybody this is obviously a free open market 100 this guy just yeah so but so this guy is taking
that right there and and he's flipping it on his back,
and he's saying, let's cook.
And, you know, let's say this goes as planned for them.
You know, we could see some interesting things happen out here
on these floor prices.
I think the rebellion should be
as somebody creating a whole other narrative
that just turns around,
and all the proceeds go to buy and burn the fucking,
all of the... So that's... that just turns around and all the proceeds go to buy and burn the fucking, uh,
all of the, um,
so that's,
You just stole my idea.
You just stole my idea.
Y'all just stole my idea.
what are y'all talking about?
I said that.
See how many people have this idea,
I did find it funny. Cause the one, the Kyle? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I did find it funny
because the one homie,
Alpha D-Gen,
he did ask the question
that I wanted to know the answer to,
which was,
is it possible to have to see this thing
turned on cyberkongs?
And he said, no,
cyberkongs and cryptopunks are immune.
So I personally think
if somebody launched something today
while this is hot, because to be honest, I don't think this works.
I think this is dead in a week and nobody gives a shit.
That's just my opinion.
But I think if somebody launched a similar thing that was focused solely on Cyberkongs today, I think it could actually be pretty lit because the whole space could turn around and give the finger to the fucking Death Star, which I think would be pretty funny.
I would rather get behind that personally. They want to outside oh sorry i do think this whole thing's interesting
i just don't think it's gonna work but i could be wrong i mean look i'm an idiot bro i've been
wrong plenty of times um i i also do think it i don't think it actually is as harmful as people
are thinking it is right i mean listing the nfts 20 lower is only going to look if the
market has already agreed on if the market has only already agreed on a floor price and all
of a sudden there's an nft that's 20 lower it's an obvious buy for anybody right it's just an
opportunity whereas the token works thing and captain said this earlier this morning this isn't
an original thought but the token works thing does create these kind of like glass ceilings where these this there's this thick ass layer of nfts all
listed at a certain price that now everybody has to get through and nobody's buying them
let's just be real nobody is buying them, they, they get enough fees to where they're buying their own NFTs at the 20%
I don't know,
I think like,
if a community is targeted,
that has been busting their ass to get the floor up to,
you know what I mean?
To like really build their brand back or even a team.
And then this is targeted.
it's all up to the token holders,
It's up to,
it's up to the voting.
It's exercise.
who proposes?
I'll definitely be putting creeps on the list today.
Definitely.
That's what I'm asking. Who puts the list together
of what ones to go
target? Because you can't leave
that to the voters because otherwise
nobody's ever going to agree.
There has to be like a poll
done of like five collections.
You have to lock up your Death Star in order
to vote, bro. You have to lock up your Death Star.
And I understand that part, but I'm saying...
Yeah, but your voting is only on the list of projects.
You're voting on a list, but who decides what projects go on the list?
Yeah, that's what I thought.
They're the ones who decide all of that stuff.
So they are making the decision of...
So any teams that ever pissed them off through the five years
could end up on this list. They're catching that smoke. them off through the five years could end up on
this list.
That smoke.
They're catching the end of that saber,
And they did,
he did specifically mention like,
they want to see certain metrics.
They want to see,
projects that have volume probably have,
not super small collections,
things like that.
They're not going after any duds.
They're not going anywhere where there's no liquidity. And liquidity and and and here's the thing is they're not automatically
dumping them into the bids either see because here's the thing because that's what would cause
the problem like if they were doing this and then like automatically just dumping the nfts into the
bids you know what i mean into the lower bids and stuff like that like you would you would then
create an issue and then the bots would gain control. And like they are actively thinking of a way to like evolve this situation to see how it's going to work out to see if it's going to, you know, be something. But it is. And he told us all at the very beginning. It is an experiment.
And, you know, we could all very well dump and eat in this thing and get back absolutely no return.
You know, that is a very possible outcome of this.
Is there any buyback mechanic or anything on the token or is it just up to people buying and selling as far as the token price?
The buyback on the token is when they sell those Moonbirds at the 20% discount or whatever.
That money is then taken and bought
Death Star and the Death Star is burned.
Okay. Interesting.
And throughout all the different messages to the fees,
I think the way that they plan to make up,
and I don't know this for sure, because I'm not on the team or anything
like that, I just, I love
the fact that he's gamifying this shit.
I love the fact that he's like,
yo, you know what, we need a rebrand
and fuck it, I'm gonna go all out on y'all.
I'm just going to go ahead and go full Sith Lord and do it this way.
And honestly, that's awesome.
We love a comeback story.
Well, Mac, but why are Cyberkongs at 1.22 now?
Like last week when we were talking about them, they were at 1.80.
Why are people dumping Cybertron's?
You know, I would love to understand that as well.
It's not really on my agenda, you know?
Yeah, I don't understand.
I'm assuming people within the community don't like it.
That's my only assumption.
Didn't they run up to like 3.5 ETH or 4 ETH right after the announcement?
I personally remember last week when we were talking about it,
I was like, CyberCon City at 1.8 looks good.
I'm looking at it right now.
It's at 1.225.
So down 17.5% on the day.
And then from a week ago, Ethereum was at 3,200.
You know, 3,100.
Yeah, that's a big swing.
So Ethereum was down 30% on the week as well. Let's not forget that. Yeah. Yeah. You know, 3,100. So, you know, 30% on the week as well.
Let's not forget that.
I'm not exactly doing a lot of volume either.
I mean, I'd scroll down a good ways to see them.
I mean, I don't know.
I mean, NFTs are not exactly lit right now in general,
but I'm scrolling a long way to get to CyberKongs on the day.
You know, like you said, it's an experiment.
Let's see what happens you know um
i'm definitely curious i mean it is interesting i just you know i can't quite wrap my head around
how any of this is gonna actually work out so it's just i don't know it's interesting i'll be
i'll be watching i'm interested to see what happens they've got my attention it's just uh
i'm not really expecting it to go well yeah um and and we shall see we
shall see i think that that's thing is i mean but there's you know this is uh we've come so far man
listen we're five years into really like you know we're almost a decade into the nft space but like
you know when you think about crypto punks and stuff like that but like really like for what we
know it is and after board i took off know, we're five years into this space.
You know, you have a lot of five-year anniversaries coming up this year, Borde.
You know, UGA Labs was formed five years ago yesterday.
You know what I'm saying?
So it's one of those things, like, we're still in this infancy, and people need to be experimenting.
People need to be trying new things.
I don't know how to make it more clear like if you don't if we don't if they don't do nothing nothing's going to change and we're still going to be 90 down and
we're still all going to be showing up talking about the same fucking circle circle jerk that
they were having last week right so i think that really this is just an opportunity to do something
different and you know we've seen all the other strategy tokens play out we saw wow go
their own way you know um you know there's just a different line i mean i know that heavy metal
is going to be launching their strategy token very soon um so there's that to look forward to
but like at the same time like you know i want this to actually succeed i would like to be i
would like to see the mechanic evolve to where it is somehow
profitable they are burning death rate at an exponential now and these nft communities got
to band together to protect their floor or whatever it is that's happening uh i just i think it's cool
but you know there is opportunity out here and um you know you either take it or you don't you know
yeah yeah it's gonna be interesting to see how
this plays out usually the stuff i can't wrap my head around ends up being really bullish i mean
like i didn't really get the whole token works thing right out of the gate and it was lit and
then by the time i did wrap my head around it nobody gave a fuck anymore but you know we'll
see how this goes dude it is uh like you said at least somebody's doing something you know at least we at least we got something to talk about today right yeah it's well you know mega eth is also
launching yeah they're live on uh open c alex yeah alex put a alex are you dialed in on mega
uh not really but i saw open c did that so i minted a few yeah in a couple of wallets what
did you i know they did the airdrop and stuff but i never got around to it i'm i'm not sure about it
but i do like this uh death strategy thing and i like the website and it's going to be interesting
i kind of see it as like the you know against against the bots and stuff like that, man. So it could be interesting. Yeah. These are Mint Block Zero Mega ETH X OpenSea.
Are these soulbound tokens, or are they actually selling?
No, they're just like a free mint commemorative for the Mega ETH draw.
Does that go live today, Machiavelli, or no?
It's like the
I see BC Breads down there
in the audience. We should bring him up.
I mean, the
mainnet has to be live because there's literally
NFTs on OpenSea right now.
there might be the wrong bread.
That might be the wrong bread.
Yeah, that is the wrong bread that might be the wrong no yeah no
no no that is the wrong bread i was like yo let me put on a crypto mori
i mean open sea has these world computer nichians uh on their home's page their team has already
minted theirs i think so there's already some of these minted.
And then phase one starts tomorrow.
I'm looking at the X account.
It's not enormous.
There's like 7,687 followers here.
But this is the art that I was seeing the other day out of the OpenSea X account.
So I don't know what these are.
I'm not like shilling this. I don't know what these are i'm not like showing this i don't know what it is
but um it's just one of the few collections that are on open sea right now for uh you got shrines
block zero mega ethics open sea these little ship things uh i don't know what an infinity
infinity names bad buns there's like three other collections here.
But there are collections on OpenSea, on Meg ETH.
That Bad Buns, is that real?
No, that's probably fake.
It's got a blue check next to it.
On OpenSea.
I remember when OpenSea, I mean, this.
There's only 10 of these.
So, I mean, maybe people are migrating over or something, or maybe this is some limited run.
I mean, I have no idea, but OpenSea
put a blue check on it.
I didn't think it was live.
I didn't think Mainnet was live yet.
Well, I don't know how there's...
I don't know how people are trading.
Hold on. As of February 9th? This is just an E, though. well i don't know how there's i don't know how people are trading uh hold on uh as a february so it did go live today um i just haven't seen nobody tweeting about how much money they made
on their pre-sale and all that shit because you know what was it two months ago people were buying
maybe longer than that uh everybody was doing their pre-sale. Wasn't it?
Who was it that lost their pre-sale?
Was it ICOBs?
Who was it that lost their pre-sale?
We're talking shit.
I think it was ICOBs.
Yeah, I think it was ICOBs.
Yeah, it was ICOBs.
Yeah, I think it was him and Jake.
No, not Jakey.
Was it Kook?
No, Kook got the... Kook was the Monad. Yeah, not Jake. He was a kook. No, kook got
kook was the moment.
Kook got that
even if he had
the score of 400.
No, it wasn't nothing about ethos.
He literally went and said,
the only thing I'm doing with this shitty coin
is dumping it.
That's what he was...
Yeah, yeah, but on MegaEth,
he got the allocation despite having
a 400 score on ETH.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think we were just mixed up.
I think that was Monad that he got
his allocation taken away.
I think that was a while ago.
The bet I should have taken from all of them the location, Monad.
It's just showcase.
If you give the biggest wins to some influencers, they will dump.
I mean, okay.
How do you get these influencers to talk, Phil?
You got to get these influencers talking about your thing somehow,
and they're not going to care for that're not incentivized. Yeah okay but you can't incentivize your community the least
and then give it to all the influencers and then wondering oh nobody gives a care we have
80 transactions since last month on our chain. I mean look it's it's definitely a tough spot.
All the people yeah they fucked all the people who believed's it's definitely a tough spot all the people yeah they all
the people who believed in it i didn't believe uh since the beginning but uh um yeah all the
others who did they got and they gave the money to big influencers and yeah now they are where
they are well look to johnny my milandax aren't worth six dollars and 94 cents just because the influencers dumped all the
fucking community members dumped too buddy oh yeah yeah they did but uh it is also one of the reasons
because the team doesn't give a fuck about their community but they did uh for some
cloud on the timeline wow johnny's pissed off why are you so mad at them for this
not i don't care i just say that uh every project so who don't think their community
deserves the best uh they should get fuck off yeah i agree i agree it's a tale as old as time
right like people get mad whenever you know like a zeet or
like any of these info five platforms you can watch people that are community members freak
out when the kols come in and outperform them on the tournaments but like i don't know man at the
end of the day like if your community had enough motion to onboard the masses then you wouldn't
need a fucking info five tournament to begin with, right?
Like, you gotta incentivize these KOLs to talk about this shit.
And then, I mean, look, that's just the part where you get the attention, right?
But then you have to use that attention and actually onboard more people to offset the selling of said KOLs.
And if you can't complete that final step as the team,
then yeah, you're cooked, you know?
But I mean, the KOL ain't the problem.
The problem is that these teams were all hype
and no deliverables,
or at least no deliverables that anybody actually wanted.
But they could give these motherfuckers $10
and they would chill it the same.
I mean, we saw that with Info 5 people posting for months
They just gave them
some of them five figures,
six figures, airdrops
and they disappeared.
You could have...
They would post about
Even if they would get $500.
I have a question for you.
Are you a certified Zeke creator yet?
Yes, I am.
Let's go, Dijani.
Congratulations.
You sounded like a guy that was not a Zeke certified.
No, I'm okay with that.
I'm just giving my opinion.
I am still under review.
I hope you get it, Kyle.
I won't be angry if I don't. I only participated in one tournament.
Look, I'm not a fucking ex-timeline KOL.
I'm a motherfucker that talks on spaces.
This platform isn't really for me.
We had talked to Tully before,
and they've talked about how they would integrate, you know,
spaces and stuff at some point, other social media platforms. If they get there, then, yeah, I might be a good guy to, you know, have on here.
But I don't spend a lot of time writing tweets.
But then you have, again, the problem that you have all of the spaces out of some countries I don't want to name, which have hundreds of thousands of people which will just use keywords and they will farm the shit out of it with fake accounts.
Right, but Zeet was being pretty clever about fucking over bot and like the three by three group chats and shit like that.
They'll do the same thing with spaces.
I mean, anything that they integrate into there.
And I don't know about these other platforms, but ZEAT was very cautious about letting people game the system.
So, like, I don't know.
I mean, if they if they.
Yeah, dude, if they integrate spaces tomorrow, I don't think the fucking, you know, the Nigerian space where it's like, oh, gain 5,000 followers and rah, rah, rah.
Like, yeah, dude, those spaces are not going to be counted in anything for any participation on Z.
On Lurki, Lurki didn't have the success to point them out.
And they didn't reward spaces like the space from pingu and from rj but
they did with some of this nigerian space why didn't they reward pingo in them
i mean they got much less they get like a hundred or two hundred dollars
and basically they're hosts hosting every day
with hundreds of real people listening to it wow yeah yeah real people that actually buy stuff
right that aren't just there for engagement they were just they were just bought the fuck out of
their spaces and made a bunch of money from lurking yeah this uh nigerian and whatever yeah see that's
why i told you a while back i wasn't
with that i looked into it i talked to the team wasn't a fan of it um
yeah i mean you still could have made some money for yeah possibly possibly um yeah all good
um you got even with i how was the space called? Or how was this called?
Where you did have to type something
and they need to go to check to get some points.
Where you have been really excited about it last year.
Oh, yeah, that was...
The Animoca brand.
Yeah, that was the Animoca brand.
That was Stream.
And I think...
Is it alive? Right now it's not. No, that was an Animoca brand. That was Stream. And I think... Is that the live?
Right now it's not, but I've heard some shit that it was going to end up happening.
That's like they're bringing it back.
So I don't know what's going on there.
Haven't gotten any 100% details, but the Discord is somewhat still active.
And I think some of the hosts still actually are doing the stream drops.
But I haven't fucked with it in a while.
Stream drops was a good idea.
But it was clunky and I don't know.
It was a good idea.
They just need to hone it a bit.
Yeah, I agree.
Yeah, because people were able, like, people like YG, who's not in the audience right now,
YG completely scammed the system.
Yeah, he had, like, nine windows open at a time doing scream drops.
And, yeah, he ended up.
Not only did he game the shit out of the system, he also coined the phrase steam dumps.
And that's...
While pillaging the platform,
he actually was nuking the rep of the platform at the same time.
What a guy.
What an asshole.
Yeah, you can't build anything in this space,
which, yeah, some people will always uh make
better yeah yeah i agree um all right what else uh let me go to my bookmarks here um
because we had a bunch of other stuff that was going on five hours ago. Coin market cap top crypto fundraising last week.
Gold.com 150 million RWA all the way down to Kairos trade,
which I don't, I'm not familiar with that.
Says the most performant prediction market trading terminal all the way down
trading terminal,
all the way down to 2.5 million.
to 2.5 million.
One of them that stood out to me was relay that had 17 million raised.
and I don't know how many people on here use relay to do all their swaps.
If you're swapping anything on open C it's working through relay.
So I don't know,
you know, when they do their airdrop for relay
it's going to be interesting to see if wallets that are connected to open see if open see gets
some you know users actually get a um a little piece of action there do you think that happens? Anyone? Kyle? Kenny? The relay thing?
I don't know.
I mean, who knows?
On the subject of open sea swaps, I did just notice a minute ago,
they don't have any voyages up anymore.
I wonder if the participation has been so low.
They had some last week.
I did the one.
Is it until tomorrow?
I did all the ones that last week,
and they usually don't drop until 12 o'clock, the new voy one. Yeah. Is it until tomorrow? I did all the ones that last week and they usually don't drop until 12 o'clock.
The new voyages.
Well, I haven't been doing them for a while, so I don't know.
I just, I probably should.
I've been there for a little bit.
I had a little bit of money in coins and then suddenly I'm a hundred percent deployed into
JPEGs again and have no liquidity to do fucking voyages.
We have six days left uh for the end of
wave five their open sea foundation post said that you know they were they were their launch
their target launch for ticker c was march 31st so less than two months out from that not sure if
they stay on on, you know.
But these voyages are going to continue.
All this stuff's going to continue happening throughout it.
But either way, when you do a swap,
if you wait and don't hurry up and just click your MetaMask,
you can read it right there.
I mean, it's Relay that does all their back-end swaps.
So could end up having a little bit of something there
for users of OpenSea from Relay.
And then Jupiter Exchange,
Kenny raised another $35 million.
They already have their token.
I mean, what are they raising for now?
No clue. No clue.
I won't tell you their app is nice though.
I do like their mobile app.
I've been using it more often over the past few weeks for just like trading
shitters and whatnot.
I do like it,
I don't know.
Who knows what they're raising money.
And then another thing I quote posted this, but yeah, I don't know. Who knows what they're raising money for. Yeah, yeah. And then another thing, I quote posted this over the weekend.
I seen Machiavelli actually posted it later in the day.
A lot of people did.
Machiavelli, I don't know if you're still here with us
or on 18 other stages.
I'm right here, Jesus.
Okay, cool.
This is rare.
Normally, you're fucking, fucking you know you're hosting something
else i i listen i know i got five things going on at one time that's the only way to gain to
keep your name in the mindshare around this yeah yeah exactly yep uh the express the uh
espresso foundation this airdrop what is this for so essentially um you know we were um granted access to this through the people at apeco i
believe simple farmers set up a deal with those guys and um they released if i'm not mistaken
they released like a couple of um products like uh mint.gg where you could like literally mint
like 3d objects for in-world use and rooms and stuff like that.
And so essentially, they're just an ecosystem partner, from what I know,
and they're going to be giving us a little bit of espresso as part of the drop.
Yeah, I mean, I was eligible for it.
I don't know how.
Yeah, I was too.
Did you all hold any Yuga assets or hold any of the partner assets
from any of the any of the drops that they were doing because i think they partnered up with a
lot of people i don't think ape chain is the only chain that they came to do this with yeah i mean
the only ones that you could actually see on there were like um was like you know obviously doodles pudgy uh um and then uh board apes you know stuff like that but
they didn't list they didn't have a list of any other brands that would give you those uh humanity
points yeah yeah well i actually didn't have to to do anything with the humanity points because
i chose to register a claim so like it approved me right up set me up and then
um i will i guess we're gonna have to kyc or whatever um whenever we do claim those or some
type of yeah you know so i just chose to do that all at one time instead of like you know going
through the the i i really didn't like that onboarding and be real with you the expresso
onboarding so did you do all the did you do all the proof of humanity no no i didn't not not i didn't even mint the nft free nft that i could
have minted to give me the proof of humanity because i just didn't like when i saw all the
laundry list of things that i had to click on to go attach and stuff i was like is there any way
to get past this i scrolled scrolled and says you can register when you claim the other opportunity was to register whenever you claim the airdrop and i was like i'll
just do that i'll just register when i claim the airdrop that way i get the airdrop and i don't
have to worry about the proof of humanity and then giving them all my data connecting all my
socials doing all of that shit like no thank you yeah see that was that was kyle's argument i went
ahead and did it because i didn't want to get caught in the
sauce. I tried it to an extent.
I connected my
MetaMask and my X account. I'm just
going to disconnect them because it wouldn't
read my Solana account.
I couldn't find this fucking
Compostables NFT. I have no idea
what that even is.
And then it wants you to
download a browser extension, too. And I'm just like, I don't know what this is and then it wants you to download like a browser extension too and
i'm just like i don't know what this is i'm not going to download a browser extension for some
shit i don't know what it is um i mean i hope it works out for anybody that was able to get in it
but you know what's i don't what's dumb is when you go mint the nft it only lets you it's like
letting you mint it through coinbase it won't let you mint it through your metamask
which is wild um but yeah kyle as soon as i said yeah you got to download an extension
like i could already hear it in kyle's voice that he was like disgusted by this
so yeah i just i don't fuck with stuff like that if i don't know what it is expressly right it's
got to be from a team that i'm familiar with if i'm going to be downloading fucking chrome browser extensions
and stuff yeah um yeah i mean i did it i got the humanity points i did my coinbase shit i didn't
give a fuck we'll see what it does um they said there was a million wallets that were
they said there was a million wallets macav, so that's a fuck ton of wallets.
So not sure.
This is probably going to be like a fucking cheeseburger.
But how many people
did exactly what you did?
Both of you. There's two people
here on stage that
were eligible, besides myself,
that got to that point and said,
nah, fuck this, I'll do it later.
Or I won't do it.
And then when you get to go to claim,
say you're seeing a... What if it's more than a cheeseburger?
What if it's like...
That's what I'm saying.
What if it's like...
But guess what?
It doesn't mean I'm not going to get it.
I'm still eligible.
I've just got to fill out my...
I know, but time...
Dude, it could be more than a cheeseburger.
I mean, look, the reality of this shit
is that the less people are willing to do this shit, you know,
the less pieces of the pie get distributed, right?
Your piece of the pie gets bigger.
The more friction, the bigger your piece of the pie, right?
So, I mean, it could be lit for you if you did it.
That's why I was like, fuck it.
I'm going to do it now.
And if I see somebody tweet that you know
i see some josh ong tweet and he's like i just got three thousand dollars from fucking esp or
some dumb shit josh i didn't i didn't want to be like machiavelli and end up
like panicking trying to hurry up and connect to my shit when the whole site's being overloaded um yeah and what were you about to say about uh josh young
to johnny oh god okay yeah better not be done bad i'm gonna kick you off the stage
oh whoa i didn't know you were on his lap like that damn i do too but i mean damn
yeah what what i want what what bro my wife has tomorrow birthday and i
just almost forgot about it i need to buy some stuff yeah dude you almost died yeah
that was a near-death dude did your life just flash before your eyes? Because you just had a near-death experience. Here's what you can do.
I bought an iPad Air.
I bought an iPad Air.
I bought no roses.
I bought a Toffee Fee.
I bought some Haribo.
And yeah, I need some cards to write some pathetic, beautiful thing.
You should have created her an abstract wallet bought
her a female bearish and said happy birthday that's what you should have done well she wouldn't
understand doesn't matter if she doesn't understand again it's wallet distribution yeah then i had
again to do all of this stuff for buying the agpa there yeah so she wouldn't accept the bear. Maybe not. Speaking of bearish,
if you staked, you just ticked over to your 20% bonus
after being staked for 14 days.
I did also pin the tweet from the bearish account
saying that the ZEAT campaign claim is near,
so I'm assuming we're going to get our bird token this week
for those of us that participated in the Zeet tournament.
Johnny, you should clean up on that.
I might be mildly annoyed because I finished 26th in that competition
and I should have done a lot better,
but it literally stopped reading my account at a certain point.
But it is what it is.
I still like the boys.
I'm still bullish on the bears.
You know what's,
what's good.
Machiavelli.
I'm kind of glad death stars going after moon birds first.
You know why?
Because they put out this bullish thing that like,
we're going to give you seven days.
No matter if you,
no matter if you,
stake on the seventh day and claim,
you're going to get the full month of tokens.
Well, on the sixth, three days ago, they extended it another seven days,
which I find kind of bullshit, you know?
So now they gave people 14 days because there's not enough stuff.
There's not enough NFTs that are nested is my thought.
And listen, honestly, if they would have kept them at .80 ETH,
I would have probably bought a few and went ahead and nested them.
But like you saw Adam come in and make a big sweep
and you saw all these people come in and just kind of like when ETH fell,
they tried to readjust for that price accumulation because of the token and you know
these market makers are working really hard to keep that sumbitch over 200 million yeah you know
what i mean um and so i just you know you're just gonna we're just gonna have to let spencer and
them cook and like i i think that they didn, they underestimated how many people would show up for this,
how they were going to produce the mechanic.
But I don't think that it's, it's by any means a failure.
And I think that there's some potential there with that IP.
And, you know, for all kinds of purposes right now,
they're going the penguin route, the Pingu route, right?
Maybe they're dropping their mechanic
Wasn't exactly the same and
And they're they're vesting or nesting
Is a little differently because
Pingo went for the all guts no glory
Where everybody got their hand in the pot
And then they let everybody leave and then
You saw that son of a bitch fall on its face
And then 10x and then
With market conditions and stuff like that,
it's largely ridden and stayed tied to the market.
So you can almost expect when we see these 20% gains, 30% gains,
and then we head back into either a bull trap or whatever we do,
we're going to watch Pingu react that same way.
Burb necessarily really isn't in there like that
because with their drop mechanism in there like that because with their
drop mechanism and everything like that like i don't think many people have actually claimed and
nested you know and so like there's this i don't know lack of participation um you know first for
as you know as large a base as their community is and how active I heard how hell the Discord was and stuff, I don't know what happens from here.
I think that maybe it would have been nice to give other communities that nesting period, but like, yo, you get this airdrop, but it's nested.
It's nested for three months or six months or whatever
it is, you know, so that they were able to distribute more of the token, have more people
want to participate in or feel involved. And then, you know, we could have hit those milestones at
three months, six months, whatever it was where there was unlocks. But the whole time their
community could have had the option of unlocking and locking the entire time but i you know we we saw
the speculators rush in as soon as there was a a little burp of a burp token and they came in and
they swept that floor they rose the price up because essentially they were going to do what
they've done every single time that a token did an airdrop and they were going to liquidate the fuck out of that thing and then move the fuck on.
And they didn't let that happen.
You saw a lot of these flippers and traders and stuff become community members for the next 24 months if they want to pull their money out.
And then the fact that a lot of them bought in at three, two and a half, three ETH, all of these things.
of them bought in at three two and a half three all of these things you know not very many people
got in at the point three when it ran up to point six and then it floated there for just a day or
so and then it just skyrocketed it went to the moon so to speak but so i i think that you know
we're watching i was almost a little karmatic too watching that situation roll out to where it was
like all of the sudden like all the all the grinders all the all the people who've known
this system and like yo this is going to be just like all the other times like yo that was
paradigm shift not at moonbirds and then what that floor went from three something all the way down
to fucking 0.8 0.7 actually yeah well that's just like i mean it was just priced where it was uh that for me the tokens up front weren't very favorable for the community
so um you know it didn't give you much of a liquidity moment and um but i don't think they
were trying to give their community the problem is with a giant liquidity moment is everybody just
fucking clicks the sell button twice and fucks off into the sunset yeah yeah but i mean but at the same point you should still reward your community especially the people
that have been holding but they but they are being rewarded they're just not being rewarded as much as
they all thought they should get rewarded for doing nothing other than buying a jpeg that's
yeah but i'm just saying up front instead of giving i get that but by rewarded you mean give
them a bunch of tokens
that they can sell and nuke the chart that's what you mean right there's gonna be you can't stop
those people from doing that you literally can by having it be a drip by having it be like it is
where there's a once a month there you get one 24th of the overall tokens and there's like a
little game where if you keep your tokens and you play the game and you use those tokens to
play the game, you can get more tokens. Like it's, it's pretty clever. It's just not what
everybody wanted, which was a giant fat fucking pocket of coins. Right. And I get that. I would,
I would prefer to have a little bit more so I could be rewarded one for fucking holding and
being dedicated to the community, but two, other shit did you buy this moonbird uh or
or being involved in this did you buy this because you knew that years down the line they were going
to drop a verb token and you should be rewarded because you bought no i've never been a fan of
moonbirds okay but i mean well so the only pixel art i like is uh people consumers in this
marketplace uh genuine undead everybody is a consumer in this marketplace.
It's just hyper-financialized.
And there's a chance for super community and collectability here.
And so people feel that things should be a certain way because of past metas and things that they've already witnessed or some of the foundations that these ecosystems were built upon with airdrops and shit.
But it's not like just because you participate doesn't mean they owe it to you. foundations that these these these ecosystem was built upon with airdrops and shit but like
it's not like just because you participate doesn't mean they owe it to you so i think that this is
just kind of a reality check for like who and what and how you're involved in things you know
what i'm saying for a lot of shit he said the thing cheese he said the thing i know i wasn't
expecting that i would have had the little fucking drum set up ready to go for you, but I didn't fucking,
I'll be trying to work it in this whole time.
just so you know.
Everybody's still caught up on,
how pudgy's got their airdrop and everything.
Some brands may be able to do that.
Some brands may not.
I am a fan of vesting but even getting a a chunk of the
fucking pie up front is still good um you know and i think they had i think they had more sales
when those tokenomics came out than they would have had they gotten a decent percentage at tge
people forget that there was plenty of frustration around the pingu airdrop then they would have had they gotten a decent percentage at TGE.
People forget that there was plenty of frustration around the Pingu airdrop, right?
There was plenty of issues with the claim site because people were able to claim and some others weren't.
There was a lot of 100% dumps that nuked the chart before some people could claim.
There was plenty of frustration around that whole thing, too.
Well, that's why Las said that come abstract tg
budgie holders will have the ability to claim their tokens prior to anyone else
look i'm a fan of lucas but that brother has said a lot of shit okay we'll see we will see
so is a lot of founders uh but i'm just saying that that's what his word was. He learned from the Blingu Airdrop. My founder said they were going to create a metaverse
and bring in FT's life, and they did.
I don't know.
I'm a fan.
I'm a fan of the other side.
Just a little reality check there for you.
Hey, he said it again.
Let's see.
What else was going on?
Did you see, before you Dijjonied me back to moonbirds as i
was in the middle of talking about bearish um since i got abstract on the mind i i feel like
the mauger badge came out over the weekend i know you got the mauger badge right i did too yeah yeah
um fun little game i'm a big fan onain Heroes. It's a great application of the IP.
And it's easy to get.
You just got to go in there, spend a, I don't know how much a key cost.
It was like .001, whatever the hell that is right now. Yeah.
I was actually going to stream this over the weekend on Abstract,
but I can't fucking stream.
So, and people are making money on this, bro.
Well, I mean, look, there is a rewards pool, right?
Yeah, there's 18 ETH in the weekly pool and two and a half ETH in the jackpot.
Now, look, let's be real about it, though, because this is like a similar thing to, you know, the first wave of OpenSea voyages.
We all got to be real about the math here, right?
So only 90, the rewards pools are funded by people buying the keys.
And only 90% of the people buying the keys is going into the rewards pool.
So on average, on average, if you are the average game player, you will be down 10%.
Now, that doesn't mean you can't win, right?
This is how gambling works, but everybody needs to realize this is gamified gambling.
It is fun.
It is cheap.
You do have the ability, if you're clever, to maybe outperform other people that aren't clever, right?
I think it's all just fucking chance.
There was a guy that put a video up, Lorenzo.
He put his video up.
His third game he played, he got a jackpot for 0.253 Heath.
Yeah, look, I mean, that part is chance for sure.
But, like, you can be more or less clever, right?
Like, when I'm playing the game and I'm going around
and I've got almost full energy and i
kill somebody or break a fucking vase or something and it's got energy in it i leave that sit there
right like some people just take everything they get right you got to be clever about it you leave
that sit until you're coming back through to go find the staircase to the next level you pick it
up on the way back when your energy meters down you know there's ways to move around the monsters and stuff that
will preserve the you know you can do better in the little battles with the monsters and stuff
like there there is some skill to it so there is if you're smart you can do better than people who
are not smart um but yeah it is fun i had fun playing it you know yeah i played it a bunch when
it was uh not financialized yet or during the early phase? Yeah, I played it a bunch when it was not financialized yet
during the early phase, and then I just played it once
just to get the badge.
I'll probably play it some more.
I've been playing a lot of Tolan Universe, to be honest,
because that game is actually a lot of fun.
I've played a lot of mobile versions of that game before,
so it's kind of fun to be playing it, something like that,
for XP on Abstract.
Yeah. Yeah, I put a tweet out because i changed kyle's mind finally about badges on abstract and that uh well i didn't
abstract finally fucking did uh about badges having an impact at tge um and you know maybe
they will but i that's been my belief the whole you know the entire time
um and there's still a lot of badges that people can go get and i you know if you're missing any
of these they're they're you know does it cost a little bit of money yes but like both gotcha
game badges you can still achieve those uh the badge, you can still get that one if you go buy the socks
and just rotate it amongst friends and split the cost.
The Myriad Grand Master Badge, $500 in volume, can easily be gotten.
The thing that really pisses me off, though, is that there's a few badges that are still being minted that were not supposed
to be one of them is the the coffee enjoy your badge and i remember that badge it was a long
time ago they did like some secret snapshot and the badge itself was that was supposed to be it like whoever had that nft on abstract got a badge and i went and looked
at the badge and there was activity on like people are still receiving this badge to this day and it's
like works do what i have a coffee from nft yeah but you but you probably had the badge from, like...
No, I didn't got the badge.
When did you have the NFT?
One day after the snapshot.
Okay, that's the problem.
What I'm trying to say is that people are still getting these badges,
and I don't know how they're getting them.
So I'm going to reach out to somebody on the team.
And if they say, oh, nobody's getting those badges, I'm going to say, to somebody on the team because, and if they say,
nobody's act,
nobody's getting those badges. I'm going to say,
you're full of shit.
cause I'm looking at it,
I'm looking at it on open.
you can see the activity.
It's fucking blockchain.
So when you go to that coffee,
enjoy your badge,
why am I fucking not seeing this thing?
When you go to that badge,
it, um, you can see the activity,
they're being minted every single day.
that I don't understand.
So, I'm going to try and get some answers
on a few of these.
if you can still get them,
that's, you know, know cool i think that's cool
that's you're missing a point i have the nft in my wallet so the nft the badge should pop up
is what i'm saying oh okay my bad it was there was a snapshot done nobody knew this was coming
and the reason i have an nft is because h, oh, here, let me send you one of these and you'll be able to get the badge.
But it didn't work.
So mine founder.
So that's what that's what I'm.
So that's what I'm trying to figure out.
I'm trying to get trying to get to the bottom of this to see what's what.
But, yeah, me personally, I do think these badges...
Right now, there's 44 badges in total.
Yeah, I wasn't on the right thing.
There's 44 badges in total.
I would try and go and get as many as you can.
Yeah, 19 hours ago, this person minted one of these badges.
Two days ago, two days ago, one month ago, one month ago, two months ago.
Like, these shouldn't be eligible for that. badges two days ago two days ago one month ago one month ago two months ago like these these
shouldn't be eligible for that damn i only have 21 of these badges so that's what i'm am i good
maybe maybe hey um while we're on abstract uh why don't you throw up my screen real quick i'm
gonna open this uh crypt toys cube i've been wanting to do this for like a week, and I kept forgetting.
But, man, I really like that guy.
What's the founder's name?
Will something?
Yeah, Will.
Yeah, Will.
I got to say I'm a big fan of that guy just because I got this cube.
I was hanging out in the abstract one-year anniversary space the other day,
and I won this cube,
but I didn't even have an account on this site, and I didn't know that you had to have an account.
I assumed it would show up in my wallet. Once I figured that out, I made an account,
and I reached out to Will. I just DM'd him, and dude, bro got back to me in like a couple hours.
And, dude, bro got back to me in, like, a couple hours.
He DM'd me back, got everything all set up,
and then he actually DM'd me again a few days later
to make sure that I got this cube.
I was like, dude, what a G.
Yeah, yeah, Will's a nice guy.
All right, open this bitch.
All right, well, let's see what happens here.
It looks like I got a first edition hero tier,
rarity unknown, collector unknown. Let's click the unbox button and see what happens here. It looks like I got a first edition, hero tier, rarity unknown, collector unknown.
Let's click the unbox button and see what
happens here.
Got the C spinning.
Let's see.
Hopefully it's something God tier.
Start your experience.
Continue. Yeah, it was a pretty cool
experience. Oh, shit.
Got somebody to make him out.
I like I can hear the audio
through yours because I have my laptop
muted right now. This is cool.
What is going on here?
I don't know.
Tap it. Tap it. Keep tapping.
I like this. This is kind of a cool experience.
Yeah, keep tapping it. Keep tapping it.
No, you don't tap it. You tap it and hold it.
Yeah, it should.
And now all the shit in the background is going to light up.
All right, it's opening.
Oh, yeah, dude.
Splash of color all over the place.
Tap, blah, blah, blah.
I got a Pluto.
Oh, you got a plain-ass Pluto, too.
What does that say, right?
Why do you got a plain-ass Pluto?
I don't know what tap and hold blister pack to unwrap. I don't know what, uh, tap and hold blister pack.
I don't know, Matt.
It's not being done.
Uh, I'm going to tap and hold it and see what happens here.
Processing your request.
Uh, let's see here.
Look at bro dancing around.
Oh no, he's gold.
Is he gold? I mean, i don't know what this means but
that was all very cool animations let's go back to backpack and see if it says like
backpack rarity tear or anything um yeah it showed it up in the top right i thought it said it was
like hero and grail but i don't know what exactly that means. So let's see.
I've got Pluto, Mickey and Friends, Volume 1.
Crystal Pluto is a playful pup and Mickey's loyal sidekick.
He can be the brave protector as well as the scaredy cat in need of protecting.
He's up for anything until he finds himself in the middle of a wacky situation.
in the middle of a wacky situation he's totally unprepared for licensed by disney collection mickey
He's totally unprepared for.
and friends series mickey and friends volume one release single uh tier hero rarity grail i don't
know what the rarity scale looks like but that sounds good statometer 11 again don't know how
high that goes but cool uh packaging open this was cool total supply 575
this was a cool experience i gotta say i like that i like this site the only thing i don't like about
this site is you sign in with an email and then every single time you try to sign in it has to
send you an email with a code they need to do a wallet connect thing so i can just sign a transaction
and keep it pushing but other than that yeah i'm a fan uh i
wish i could see some rarity spectrums but i'm assuming grail is high right that's how grail i
mean usually means grail i mean it's the highest one i would imagine let's go all right um nice
good job bro see what happens if i go to the shop and see uh yeah see what the floor price these things are. So, Machiavelli,
I know you're not here.
An hour ago,
the Espresso Foundation
they are going to have
their Binance
pre-sale tomorrow, pre-TG
prime sale edition.
I think it's going at
$0.06 is where it's at.
And then one
other thing before we get to fucking
Jonah Pete here is
Zeet tweeted
it looks like creator markets
are coming on Wednesday.
Creator capital markets coming
this Wednesday. Look like zeep packs
are hitting the shelves this week so also made a post 10 minutes ago i have bent it up
um yeah let me go back to that and then we'll get a this is kind of weird how they have their uh
when you go to the shop and you go to their rarity tiers, they have them all out of order.
It starts with common, then goes epic, grail, legendary, rare,
ultra grail, and then uncommon.
So like should obviously be common and then uncommon and then rare and then epic. But as far as grail and legendary,
I don't know how all that's actually supposed to stack up, but nonetheless,
pretty, pretty cool. That was a fun experience. Nice.
All right. Let me a fun experience. Nice. All right.
Let me go over this real quick.
All right.
Step one, Tuesday, first round of 400 ZEET certified creators are approved.
Step two, on Wednesday, ZEET certified creator personal packs are released.
certified creator personal packs are released on step three next week.
Anyone can mint packs of creator cards.
Free mint.
Step four, the tournament begins.
ZEAT.ai is the performance layer for Web3.
So I wonder how many packs.
I wonder if you can mint like a pack a day.
Yeah, I don't know.
Jonah, did you ever get on ZEAT?
Are you a ZEAT certified creator?
I have no idea.
Probably not just because I have a similar, not similar,
I have a somewhat competing product.
So I doubt they would have me on there, but.
Happy for them.
Is AI clipping streams a similar product?
We don't just have that.
That's just like one of our main things,
but we have our own little agency
and deals can get done on our platform.
We do payouts.
We have an algorithm that measures.
We have all...
So the only difference is we're not...
You know, I think it's me personally.
Sorry, I'm in the gym and I'm fat.
Me personally, I just think it's a really bad move
to lean too hard into crypto and do packs and tradable shit for creators because
it's just like web 2 creators don't want to be involved in that at all like i've talked i talked
to so many real streamers and real video creators who are outside of crypto they just they're they
don't want the risk they don't want anything They just want to make good content and get paid for it, and that's it.
Yeah, but I haven't seen anybody from a Web2 brand come to one of these Web3 InfoFi platforms with anything.
Am I wrong?
I mean, I haven't seen, like, JCPenney try to do a sale on Kaido or anything.
That's exactly what I'm saying.
It's just, like, the market for this, it's just kind of, it's, like, too small.
Yeah, it's definitely web3 focused yeah it's
cool like i'm not anti-z i think they're doing cool shit i like i'm supportive i'm just saying
for me personally like the world is just so much bigger you know i want to i want to go after that
big world you know i even with doing like i could do more ai video and have a larger tam than a
majority of crypto just because like where crypto is today crypto is good enough to just make
payments and that's good enough how um how ai focused do you think most streamers have gotten
at this point i mean is there like outside of Web3 streamers, right? Like, classic Web2 Twitch streamers and whatnot.
Is that, like, are those guys getting super AI savvy right now?
Are they going to be interested in an AI clipping platform or even, like, know that that's a thing?
So they already use types of clipping platforms, yeah.
I'm not worried about that.
They just don't want to do it themselves.
They want some system to do it for them.
They don't want to know how to use it.
Like, they don't care if it's AI or not.
They just want a solution that's going to work for what
they're doing.
Interesting.
I don't know what just happened.
And we don't do just clipping. Clipping is just
like one of the main front-facing products.
There's multiple things it does.
Well, that's cool. I didn't even know that.
When do I get to sign up to be a
real agent creator? I forget what the name of your platform is. My bad.
Liveframe.
Liveframe. That's right. Yep.
I mean, just make an email and once we open that up, you know, we already have your email. So it's just a matter of like, if there's deals for someone like you and your audience, yeah, I'm sure we'll cover it.
Yeah, I'm sure we'll cover it.
Someone like me and my audience.
Oh, hey, man, that's dope.
As far as the Z thing goes, I'm pretty excited to see these cards.
I think what Z's going to do that's going to be interesting is when we talked to Tully, he, and I just said this earlier, but just because you're here now.
I mean, he had specifically talked about branching out to other social media platforms other than just X, right?
Also figuring out a way to incorporate like X spaces so that, you know, even the spaces community is incentivized somehow.
So, you know, I just, I agree.
Like just pay, you know, giving payouts to people for tweets on the X timeline that they likely have botted engagement on
is definitely, like, way too niche,
especially now that there's several competing platforms.
Yep. It's just how it goes.
So, you know, it's just...
I'm not bearish on crypto.
I just think that, like, the definition of insanity
is doing the same shit over and over
and not having a positive or valuable result and this is a bear market we gotta be gotta be trying
some shit and i think the card pack stuff is cool but it was already done by fantasy top
you know like fantasy top already did this well i mean i i get what you're saying but sometimes
you're just ahead of your time right
like sometimes you know sometimes you're early and i know we just talked about this the other
day sometimes you're too early right platform is really cool i think their ui is really good
i think their team is really good it's no i'm not bearish about them at all it's more about
the machination than it is the who they are anything like that i just we tried the creator card
stuff maybe they have something new that we haven't seen yet but i bet the creator card
thing was definitely like i i can't say that that was a flop it was there was a lot of volume
pumping through those creator cards before well in a bull market we haven't seen how these work
in a bear market that's true that's And Z, unfortunately, has the timing of,
they really got their platform
and tournaments kind of popping
right before Nikita nuked InfoFi,
which is very unfortunate
for the Z team.
I'm also, again, I'm biased.
And, like, I have my own,
obviously, mental issues, for sure.
I couldn't tell, Jonah.
That's what it takes to run a business but that's right
when pond posts a tweet and the pond's tweet is like i don't know why i'm in crypto i get nothing
good out of it i don't know it's kind of worrying you know i agree i think some of ponds's tweets
you know this is the guy who's running the entire business, or at least the visualization, or that's what people believe.
I get bearish sometimes, too.
But I think he's at a level where, even if that is true, I wouldn't be tweeting that.
I think that makes me nervous.
Yeah, when you're a Web3 founder, yeah, right?
It's like, and you know, I'm critical of Pons on this kind of thing, too.
I think he's a very well-intentioned, very smart guy.
Yeah, he's a good person. I agree.
But also, you know, when you're tweeting about how meme coins are all bullshit,
and I'm old enough to remember that you literally just launched a meme coin called Grind.
You know, it's like, I'm old enough to remember the tweet of
Grind will be the biggest meme coin on Abstract, right?
I'm old enough to remember the tweet of grind will be the biggest meme coin on abstract right i'm old enough to remember that yeah it's like and even that like okay it didn't work out but i think like when you
make a post like oh i thought a lot about this weekend and i realized i get literally nothing
out of crypto but here's my crypto company that i'm selling to you so you should use it you know
i think and again i did this during the gaming market i'm not i'm guilty of this so i'm selling to you so you should use it you know i think and again i did this during
the gaming market i'm not i'm guilty of this so i'm i feel like i have the ability to say stuff
like this is like you don't get any value out of doing that brother like you gotta you gotta you
know yeah using the timeline as therapy is probably not a good idea like the cool thing is chat gpt
has a therapy mode already
talk to that now well look again i i do like pawns and i've always been very impressed with the community and by the way i don't disagree with him from any of the things he says i just
think like yeah there's some people are in a position to say that stuff and some people
i learned my lesson last cycle there are no winners in virtue. Being virtuous and being true
and being the guy who tells it how it is, it does not pay, not intrinsically or extrinsically.
Intrinsically, you may feel you're right, but then you get depressed. Extrinsically,
not only do you look depressed, but nobody wants to do business with you.
And so it's just, if I have one thing to say about Z,
nothing to do with the product.
I think Pons just needs to start acting more like a crypto founder
and less like a human with a brain.
It's going to hurt him.
Good take.
I'm not going to disagree with that at all.
Dude, my biggest reason for being bullish on Zed is the bearish team.
I mean, those guys are just goaded.
They're building products that are being integrated into all kinds of things.
They literally just yesterday had a big seminar for their community
to learn how to fucking code stuff with the Claude
or whatever the hell they were doing.
Undisputed.
There's nothing I can say.
Those guys are fantastic developers.
They even helped us with Frankie Go. They're they're great i like those guys a lot
well there you have it um let's see the only other thing i was gonna bring up today
cheese did you try the polar pair up thing no what is that oh well i'm glad you asked polar pair up is the fucking newest pudgy penguin ip
game on the abstract portal it's uh you remember well i tried to try it a couple times and i
couldn't get it to open i'm gonna try it again right now um but did you ever you remember back
on back in the fucking 90s you remember that game taipei that was on every fucking computer ever
where it was like dominoes
with Chinese characters
and you had to match two of them
and then they would go away
and you could work your way down the stack?
Oh, this is working now.
I think it's kind of like that.
I haven't played this yet.
while I'm fucking around with it here,
I'll go ahead and share this screen.
But yeah, I haven't tried it yet,
but it is the, uh, it is the newest app on the
abstract portal with pudgy penguin IP all on it.
And I don't think you have to pay to play it.
I'm not sure.
I'm going to try just hitting the play button here.
It's pretty loud as fuck for people.
Tap or click to move objects to your tile okay that's interesting
yo was that crystal pluto because i got rugged was that crystal pluto a grail like like a like a
dope pool or no it was just something regular i think it was dope but they have their
rarity in a weird order so i I think it's pretty high rare.
It's definitely, look, it starts,
it's got to be above common, uncommon, rare,
maybe above epic.
I would assume Grail is above epic.
Yeah, I don't know where it lands.
It's a Grail.
I mean, Grail is always the top.
Well, no, Grail can't be the top
because there's a, like, ultra Grail or something.
And then there's also Legendary.
I just don't know.
But any way about it, good pull, right?
So I'm pretty stoked on that.
So it looks like you have to actually match three things.
And maybe you have to avoid all these hooks or something.
I don't know.
Let's go to level two here.
Junk objects.
Beware, junk objects can hide mission objects.
And matching junk stinks. It also, junk objects can hide mission objects, and matching
junk stinks.
It also gives you less points.
Vacuum cleaner
instantly matches three. I should have played this
some before we tried to do this live on space,
because I don't know how it works.
I ate like a fucking pig yesterday.
At a Super Bowl party, or just hanging out by yourself?
Yeah, Super Bowl party. Hold on. Now, the biggest question, if we're going Super Bowl nice at a super bowl party or just hanging out by yourself yeah super bowl party i've been which
hold on now the biggest question uh if we're going super bowl here which fucking halftime show did you
watch jonah dude i've watched like the first five minutes of the of the real one and i was like holy
fuck our country okay once again biggest question which one do you consider the real one? None of them. They are both terrible.
They were both shit.
It was both horrible.
The fucking Charlie Kirk shit was the dumbest fucking thing I ever seen in my life.
What about Charlie Kirk?
We are Charlie Kirk TikTok version.
By the way, Charlie Kirk's dad.
It was the Turning Point USA.
I understand, but it's still his fucking brand,
and they're out parading this guy's fucking name everywhere
to lure people in.
But he was a good guy.
Yeah, I'm not talking about him.
I don't give a fuck about him.
I'm just saying that show was dumb.
Bro, one channel, Kid Rock, the 30th time.
Other channel, it's not even in English.
It's not even in English.'s not even in english and half of
the fucking imagery was about like ice protest and challenge of like bro fire fire roger goodell
yeah motherfucker yeah it was uh you know you had to see all the stuff prior so i'm not i'm
dude also puerto rico is a territory of the americas i'm very pro puerto rico but like bro putting out all these south american flags that aren't american and like
well look again and i was saying this earlier imagery is like sugarcane field
is it like bro like shut the fuck up i think ultimately like the mistake in my mind was like
how political bad bunny has gotten recently.
That was the miss.
The idea that they wanted to kind of market the NFL to an international community, I think is actually smart.
I think actually like targeting.
You can do that in a way that's still pro-America.
It doesn't, you know, you can do that.
Yeah, they're playing seven games.
I mean, they're playing a game in Australia next year.
So, like, there's games all over the world next year.
Nobody cares about Bad Bunny.
That's not true.
That is not true.
Lots of people love Bad Bunny, dude.
Lots of people, including me.
But nobody looks for a sport because of Raptor.
Bro, who cares?
There we go.
Let's get into politics.
We just got peed up here. here's a good thing it's 12 30 guys no no i wish we could turn the recording off
i just want to say um first off bad bunny is the most successful artist within the last 25 years
he was able to finesse a 90 10 deal with sony which has never been done before due to the demand
of his music.
Self-made, multi-multi-millionaire, came from a sugar cane family in Puerto Rico,
started making his own music when he was 15.
The pure epitome of the word the American dream is what that man is defined as.
Not only that, but what he does for Puerto Rico and a lot of other Latin countries,
specifically Cuba and Venezuela, is monumental. rico and a lot of other latin countries specifically cuba and venezuela is monu fucking mental the most american thing in my opinion is being able to put that man center
stage and say this is america because dude he he has an american passport right you're born and
you're born in puerto rico you get a puerto rican passport do they have their own flag yes but
that's also because Puerto Rico
had that flag before the creation of America.
Fucking Texas has its own flag.
Look, I agree with everything that you're saying, Pete.
I just think this is a...
The problem is that people have put this guy on mic
a bajillion times outside of his music
and he's made himself very politically...
Kyle, can you say you couldn't do a single thing in half English? Because you have songs that are half English. Kyle of you're saying you could do a single
thing in half english because you have songs that are happening it doesn't matter look think about
the what was the finish real quick yeah go ahead go ahead there is no now i got now i got fucking
sidetracked because of the language thing too i um what were you oh fuck all i was gonna say is
like dude this reminds me
of what was the movie
with the chick
the skinny
the artist
the artist without
perspective
passion and triumph
is nothing
so if the artist
can't stand on a platform
and speak their mind
they're no longer
and they should just
go back to the hedge fund
or they should go back
to the accounting firm
I don't think that's true
I don't think that's true the biggest most successful celebrities of all time
were before social media because these people didn't have a mic on them except for when they
were performing and that's when the biggest stars to ever exist and that ever will exist
were were prominent frank there will never be celebrities like Michael Jackson, like Tom Cruise.
Frank Sinatra, real quick, Frank Sinatra
spoke out extensively about the Vietnam War.
Elvis spoke out about World War II
and its atrocities.
I'll talk about Hendrix.
Yeah, I mean, okay.
There's some good examples there.
The biggest artists of all time are all political.
That's the point of being an artist.
Elvis didn't get political, Pete.
You're wrong.
I can show you the interview.
I can show you the interview.
I'll fight with that, but why does it have to be at the Super Bowl?
Why does it have to be where I want to watch football?
What the fuck?
My last point, Jesus, is the ice imagery thing.
There was zero references to ice.
All it said was America is the definition of these nations. Like we are
an immigrant nation, whether you like it or not, you know, that that's what our foundation is built
off of. And I don't think I actually think he's straight. And I agree with you, Kyle. Like,
does he say crazy things? Sure. But every artist does. And it's it for me personally,
it doesn't come from a performative nature with like, let's say, the Billie Eilish thing.
She's living in a $14 million villa in LA.
Bad Bunny still lives in Puerto Rico.
He does have a spot in New York City.
And those are the only residences he has.
And he's hands-on still farming sugar cane.
There's videos of this guy still working on the sugar plantain with his fucking mother.
Look, my only point is that
i understand both sides of this fully i 100 understand why the nfl wanted to use bad bunny
because he's literally the biggest fucking music celebrity maybe on the planet right now
absolutely i just think it's unfortunate that he made himself such a political hot button
beforehand right and you're right
though there is plenty of examples but i'm old enough to remember before roseanne was the was
the honey of the right i remember being a kid when roseanne went out and grabbed her pussy after the
national anthem and gave the middle finger to everybody and now roseanne's like the biggest
right-wing figure on the fucking planet and everybody loves her so like i i don't know man
god remember remember when the biggest controversy at the super bowl halftime show was when janet
jackson's tit came out when her tit flipped oh those were the controversies i could get behind
better times man good times and also michael jackson who said michael jackson didn't get
political dude he has four songs about palestine you know like this guy got very political yeah
maybe i don't know this is the
problem people didn't know them for their political views though you know that wasn't the point
people don't know bad bunny for his political views people know bad buddy for he broke every
stream people do this nobody knows bad bunny that's actually some big artist moon high that is just
flat out not true yeah you're retarded you bro. You are so off-base with Nobody Knows Bad Bunny.
It's unfathomable how you've come to that conclusion.
Bad Bunny is absolutely...
He is the number one streaming artist across the globe and in America.
I don't give a shit.
This was the first year that...
He's not the number one jukebox played song in Moon High's bar.
Yeah, yeah, there we go.
Artist of the year performed at a Super Bowl, like, within the same year.
This is the first time.
He also broke every touring record to ever exist.
Oh, my God.
So he literally is filling stadiums quicker than anybody else.
I'm not, dude.
I can't name you one of his songs.
There is a Croatia singer who has 600k people on his stadium.
Everybody's Googling stats about
Bad Bunny.
Who's got the best one?
Alright, hold on. Let's see what Cheddar
has to say about it. Yeah, I'm curious.
What's up, Cheddar? How you doing, bro?
Yo, what's up? Good morning to you guys.
GM, sir. Shit, I'm just over here
dancing my ass away. To some Bad Bunny?
You know? Oh, there you go. I'm translating over here dancing my ass away. To some Bad Bunny? You know?
Oh, there you go. I'm translating all his songs in English, but it's banging
though. But he has songs
that have some English in it. You couldn't do a
single half English song?
He said God bless America
in English. I'm a Bad Bunny fan.
You got it.
Yesterday or this morning, even more.
I was vibing last night, dude dude i can't understand a word he said
i can't name you one of his songs but i was stoked bro it is the epitome of america it's not a leftist
no it's not shut up literally you don't understand america okay we are not
we are not a spanish-speaking country okay we are like 30 percent of the
countries yeah hold on everybody calm down this is exactly my point and this is why i can understand
this is why i keep saying i can understand both points at both sides of this in a big way right
your average nfl viewer is a fucking beer-bellied jort--wearing, fucking Appalachian hillbilly, right?
And they don't like that kind of music.
So I understand.
Let me finish my point.
I understand why your average NFL viewer is, on average,
I'm not saying everybody with no exception.
I'm just saying, on average, I understand the reaction from your average NFL viewer. But you also have to understand that the NFL is, the NFL is like one of the only sports that's only the US gives a fuck about. Nobody outside
of this country gives a fuck about the NFL for the most part. There's a few exceptions there too.
I know I'm speaking in absolutes, but it is the reality for the most part. They are trying to
garner an international audience. And whether you like it or not spanish is like one of the top it's either
the second or fourth depending on how you quote the stat most spoken language on the fucking
i think trying to compete with soccer is such a losing battle you might as well just lean into
america because you're not gonna fucking compete with fifa no no fucking shot bro yesterday
manchester united played against uh manchester city played against Liverpool,
and 600 million people watched the game.
And by the way, Jonah, it's not the case that people can only watch...
600 million people didn't watch that game.
Hold on, Jonah, to your point,
it's not the case that people can only watch one sport either, right?
Just because people internationally prefer soccer or football as the
rest of the world actually calls it that doesn't mean that they can't also watch american football
that you can watch more than one sport so when when the little kid goes mommy mommy i want to
watch football is the is the little is the mom in spain gonna be like uh mijo is it the soccer or
you mean like it just it doesn't work. I mean, I get it
It's just as easy as calling it American football, which is what they
In Mexico now like they're in in their high schools. They're including it as a sport now
It's crazy like actual cities in Mexico if you get that far in life, right? No
You make it old enough to get to high school and you
like can compete in sports and stuff yes you can play football with shoulder pads now it's crazy
they're actually adopting it um there's this dude and i'm not gonna go too far into it but there's
this fucking influencer wide receiver he's mexican as hell he lines up against everybody in america
he tries to like yeah it's the funniest thing ever. He'd be like, shout out to Mexico, all this stuff and stuff.
But he competes.
I don't know.
I don't know what to say.
All I know is that when my family sees football, American football, they still say gold when they score a touchdown.
So we support.
Let's go, dude.
It was an agenda pushing thing.
It was a come to America.
30 million people came in in our country you know
unvetted so this is the democrats new slogan we are together this is their whole plan this is
their whole entire plan and if you don't see it i don't know you're ignorant to i have all entire
mass immigration of people coming here we do not want to become you know this is literally trump's
america right now like if you think if you think that this is a political ploy by the u.s government while the literal trump administration is in the
white house and you don't think that this and you don't think that this is about the nfl selling
and making more money like i i don't know man i mean you can call me ignorant all you want i
won't call you ignorant just because you disagree with me but i do got to say like in my mind it it seems pretty obvious to me that this is about the NFL wanting to make money and tap into an untapped market of viewers.
That's just how it seems to me.
No, look, I mean, they all like soccer.
They don't like football.
They don't.
It's not a lot of American football.
I mean, dude, when I was growing up, motherfuckers had basketball jerseys and football jerseys. And depending on what season it was, what people was rocking in the hallways.
You know what I mean?
I'm just saying, people can't watch more than one sport.
It's just a part of mass immigration is what it is.
This is all part of their little plan.
It really is.
Doesn't matter.
In two days.
79,000 people showed up in Madrid to watch the NFL game this year.
70,000 people showed up in Berlin to watch the NFL game this year. 70,000 people showed up in Berlin to watch the game in Berlin this year.
86,000 showed up in Wembley in London to watch the game.
So I wouldn't say nobody outside of America cares about football.
Just saying.
It's a global.
And it'll be bigger this year.
So, I mean, that's why they.
They're doing, I think, seven or nine games next year overseas.
So let's get to Cheddar real quick.
Honestly, it's probably nothing to do with the sport.
It probably has to do with the fact that now everyone's fucking gambling,
and it's really fun to gamble on football.
That's true, too.
It's like gambling on a game that you attend.
It's like, hey, it's Sunday.
Do you want to go to the pub, or do you want to bet $1,000 on this random American team
and yell at the screen?
All right, bet. Let's go. I think it's as simple as that honestly yeah i make it fast and
easy too go ahead brother um it's exactly that it that's exactly what it is they are on this um it's
not even a political agenda it's literally the nfl just losing its way because it's fucking
football is low-key just only supported an america type shit, but we support everything else
They're just trying to get that shit back in viewership and yeah, exactly
We've been playing more games out of the country in the preseason that we have in the country
And those have been getting more views than like our american-owned games
I think we're selling out more games in other countries than we are in america
So I think it's just a revenue thing not even a political thing. I think they're just trying to make some money i mean if you come to a city with 10 million or 5 million
um people who live there um a lot of people will come to watch the nfl i i will definitely next
year uh watch a game if they johnny but i don't think that stat is 100 true because california holds like
how many millions and they still don't sell out a stadium i think it's just people imagine watching
a football game but you have to watch you have to watch a soccer um or anything else here people go
to the sports and watch it it's always full i just imagine just like the cutest little blonde
swiss the girls at the concessions of the oh you want a zee chocolate i have zee chocolate I just imagine just like the cutest little blonde Swiss,
the girls at the concessions.
Oh, you want the chocolate?
I have the chocolate.
Do you then watch the football?
Dijani, next year. Stop, I'm going to come.
Next year they're playing in Melbourne, Australia, Paris,
which that one could be dangerous.
Three London games, Munich, Madrid, and Rio de Janeiro.
Oh, and four hours away from me.
And Mexico City.
The Munich game, they haven't announced the team yet.
In Australia, one of the teams is the Rams in Paris.
One of them is the Saints.
Nothing for any of the other cities except
Rio de Janeiro is going to be the Cowboys
against somebody else.
They've only announced
three teams so far playing.
I mean, the NBA does the
same. Every year they go
to Europe, to China,
to Saudi Arabia and play
games. Yeah, but I think that's that
offseason shit, right? That's the shit that doesn't count. No,. Yeah, but I think that's that off-season shit, right?
That's the shit that doesn't count.
No, even seasonally, I think.
Imagine playing outdoor football
during, like, a Saudi Arabian summer.
Holy fuck.
Fucking hell.
Going to Dubai at 140 degrees outside?
Yeah, but they have a stadium, which is closed.
So, technically, they can play it.
It doesn't matter.
It's still fucking 100 degrees in your house
but you did have it right though it's only for the off-season thing because they're not going
to not play at their home games you know exactly they lose too much they lose like i've seen the
thing they lose like fucking millions of dollars each time a game's not played at their at their
facility from what i hear i hear tickets aren't even what pays the bills it's like everything
else concessions yeah like
fucking gear and all that stuff it's not even ticket sales so no one's going there they're just
hoping you know what actually is saving the nfl the fucking streaming services i forgot about that
that nfl pass yeah yep yeah and you know created most of that in the beginning was mark cuban
he that's how he bought the fucking,
that's how he ended up buying the Mavericks.
He sold at one other computer company,
but he also created a sports streaming site.
And that's how he ended up buying the Dallas Mavericks.
So yeah, it's pretty fucking wild.
But most of the time, yeah, they're making their money from,
they're making all their money from all the concessions.
That and all the jerseys and all that.
My brother and his wife and them were just sitting courtside for the Dallas-San Antonio game.
And those seats right there are like $12,000 a piece if somebody paid for the seats.
But then you got to pay for some of the
other stuff that comes with the seat you know and all the food and all that shit but they get lucky
and just get the seats for free so um but imagine that people that are actually paying that shit
it's fucking nuts you know pretty wild stuff um all right uh kyle do we have anything else is that it kenny you got anything
i don't think so there's a uh there is a competition for if you want to make a video
playing maze of gains i just saw that tweet a minute ago i think there's a prize pool of like
a thousand bucks for like the top i think 17 creators or something i don't know if you want
to play some maze of gains and make a video we're only paying more than that for you to become
clippers on our platform, and it's free.
Just join us.
Oh, God. I was like, how are we going from 100K from Twitter to this 1K?
Look, I'm just talking about a
niche fucking community that I like
that has a little internal thing going on.
That's all. You guys don't got to hate.
Hey, if you ain't interested,
you ain't got to shit on it, brother.
I'm not hating. I'm trying to get customers.
Shout out to them.
Yeah, but you can also go to my partner, Toshi.bet.
You just go, Jesus.
That's right.
Yo, shout out to Man.
You see he won $100,000 for the Grop contest?
Yeah, that's pretty good.
I'm a little fucking bitter because I thought I was really close,
but I fucked up the voiceover.
Your video was pretty good, though.
I just fucked up the voiceover.
If I had a few more hours, I think I would have hit top five but min's was better it's true
30 i think he had like 38 000 views at the time the post ended or 40 000 oh really well he also
said that he was sharing the money with people so that's yeah yeah that's 100 why but either way
like i was saying you have until the 13th.
Go find some fucking random people, onboard them the Toshi bet,
have your girlfriend film the shit, make it funny,
and fucking put it into the post that's pinned on Toshi's platform,
and you can win 10 Gs.
And the odds of winning are, like, really good
because there's a lot of shitty videos that people have put up.
So I'm telling you, you can make some money.
This is for Toshi Bet, you said? Toshi Bet.
All you do is make a video. Oh, my bad,
bro. I was dogging something else. Yeah, no,
don't dog Toshi Bet.
I fucked with Toshi Bet. I thought it was something else.
Yeah. No, so
go do that. There's a lot of money to get
fucking given away, right? There's money everywhere
in the space. Go fucking get it
I got money sitting in these fucking folders right now
