Seven, thirty, two, I'm every body.
Hey, thanks for pulling up, everybody.
You're gonna hear it a couple times.
Hit a retweet, tag a friend, send a DM.
Let's really get this space filled up.
We got a bunch of cool people who are gonna speak for us today.
And we're gonna give that alpha and vibes.
And this show is sponsored by the Shrimps.
And we are gonna have some shrimps to give away.
So make sure you guys are commenting on that little purple button down there in the corner.
Sometime during the show, we're gonna announce the winner.
You're gonna get yourself a nice little shrimp, put in your collection.
And once you start shrimping, you don't stop.
Just saying, it's an addicting thing over there.
But we appreciate you, DZ.
You are the director of vibes.
Every day can be a better day despite the challenge.
All you gotta do is leave it better than you found it.
It's gonna get difficult to stand, but hold your balance.
I just say whatever, cause there is no way around it.
Everyone falls down sometimes.
But you just gotta know it'll all be fine.
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it ain't good, like I should do.
When it took a walk around the neighborhood, feeling blessed, never stressed, got that sunshine on my Sunday best.
Some days you wake up and nothing works, you feel surrounded.
Gotta give your feet some gravity to get you grounded.
Keep good things inside your ears just like the waves and sound it.
And just say whatever, cause there is no way around it.
Everyone falls down sometimes.
But you just gotta know it'll all be fine.
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay.
Feeling good, like I should.
You got me vibing as well, I'm listening to it too.
Hey, we appreciate everybody that's pulled up so far.
There's some stuff to give away, man.
We shrimping every day, baby.
Actually, I said I was only gonna do this a few times.
But, uh, this is, uh, Shrimplana made shrimp.
This is, oh my god, I knew it was gonna be a bad start.
But I had to say it, get out of the way.
I'm only gonna do it, like, once or more.
Only so I don't get fined by the shrimps.
It's part of the contract.
But, uh, nah, let's go get off with a little bit more vibes.
And, uh, let's get that, uh, that energy up.
We got a great show ahead of us.
Bunch of amazing people here today.
And, uh, looking forward to, you know, sharing some value.
And, uh, definitely spreading those vibes.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
It's such a good impression.
Shrimp on a big shrimple.
We're shrimply shrimping today.
That was probably one of the best yet.
My heart's racing after that.
That was a good one, dude.
Who needs to do cardio, bro?
Just scream let's go for 30 seconds and you're good.
Yo, that is seriously impressive.
And just, my God, brings energy up every single time.
I don't care what's going on.
When I hear that, it's like, that's go time for sure.
But welcome to Solana Made Simple.
We are simply shilling today.
And this episode or this space is sponsored by the shrimps.
And that's where the Shrimplana Made Shrimples coming from.
It's just a play on them being such an amazing asset to Solana as an ecosystem.
I think they kind of set themselves apart with their community standards and just the way
that they, you know, less talk, more work.
And they have a lot of things going on.
They've been building out all their animation in the series, making a lot of connections.
They have at least six whales that have came through in the last, you know, 30 days or
so and kind of swept them up and really, really made a big impact because I guess they kind
of see what's going on and they've been watching the work.
And, you know, shout out to them for, you know, being willing to, you know, supply some shrimps
for the community to get them out there.
So make sure you guys hit that purple button and then make a comment like hashtag Solana
Made Simple or Simply Shrimping.
Something like that would be cool just to make sure you got some kind of response in there
and we'll be able to do a pick, you know, a random pick through that at some point when
But make sure you guys get entered to win and get in part, to be part of the community
But today we got a couple of amazing projects.
Before we get into that, we have, like I said, DZ Ellis, the director of Vibes, and we
have Lindsay, the host that does the most.
And how are you doing today?
How's your weekend going?
You know, I've been feeling a little under the weather this weekend, so I'm just kind
And if I was to complain, no one's really going to listen.
So I just say I'm great every day.
Every day is a good day for me.
Honestly, like I wake up and I literally choose, like, even if it's not the best days,
I'll choose violence on the day and just kind of work through it that way and just kind
of put a little bit of more hard work in.
But sometimes it's just, it's always, well, not sometimes, it's always about winning the
day, waking up with the right mindset.
So I understand that it's not that easy, but if you just try it and do it, I feel like
So let's just, you know what I mean?
Yeah, it may not be easy, but if you try, it will be good.
But with that being said, you usually have some pretty good quotes.
Try to get the, you know, the sentiment and the vibe set off right before we get into these
projects, talk to the amazing people of this community.
So if you wanted to go ahead and go, you know, let us know what you have for the quote
I just pinned it up there for you guys.
Today's quote is, don't settle for what life gives you, make life better and build something.
And this is about, you know, really going for it, kind of honing in on what you deserve
and what you want out of life and not accepting, you know, less than or accepting a lesser version
You know, I think all of us in this room have a passion for Web3 and we're all working towards
And it's important to kind of remember, you know, we're really early, we're innovators
and just keep working, keep going at it.
Because when the next wave of people does onboard, the work that you put in now is going to determine
whether you are swooped up in that cycle of success.
So that's what I want to leave with you guys.
Yeah, I think that's an amazing quote to kind of set things off with that.
And I want to try to kind of touch into that a little bit more.
It's whatever you're working on, like figure out what that thing is and like continue to
work past that once you, even if you think you start to get there, because like getting
more, you know, opportunities doesn't mean you're necessarily there.
That's, that means it's getting you ready for the next level.
It should be, you know, immensely harder.
It should not be like, like, all right, I made it.
This is so much more fun now.
It should be like, I'm working way more than I ever thought I was ever going to work at.
And like, this is what true success is.
It's like going through that.
And I tell people all the time, take a step back, breathe a little bit, look at, look around,
like, these are those moments when people say, stop, smell the roses, like, look around,
look at what's around you, the people around you.
This is what part of your story is like next year.
You'll remember these times where you're showing up to these spaces, connecting with these
people or not connecting, or, you know, you're finding out stuff you didn't like, whatever
the case is, but like, this is part of the journey.
And it's like, don't, don't, don't get too focused on like what your goal is.
It's focused on how you can continue and keep pushing those boundaries.
Cause, uh, that, that's something that I noticed, uh, being in here for about two and
a half years, people, they work really hard to get to certain levels.
And then you see them kind of just slide off and it's like, well, what are you going to
Like all of these hard, like things to get to that point was to set you up.
Like, are you going to be ready for that next level?
Because it's, it's a lot more work.
Like, you know, trying to, you know, hold up, hold down two or three spaces is a lot, but
doing podcasts and doing reviews and stuff like that.
Like I, I wanted all that too.
I didn't realize like at first, like all it would take to get in there and the organization,
but I mean, I'm pretty good with time management.
So it worked out to my favor, but it still takes effort every single day.
And like some days, you know, you wake up and like, uh, like Lindsay's quote says, don't
settle for like gives you like, don't settle for the bad day.
Like keep going and like, keep working towards that thing.
And it's like, you know, it sets you on a path for success and whatever you do.
And, uh, sometimes I think it's important to kind of touch on that.
Cause we get so wrapped up in this world and there's so other things going on and like,
we just kind of miss it by like not paying attention to that.
So make sure you're touching grass, reaching out to people and, uh, you know, telling them
the same kind of stuff we're talking about here.
Cause I think it just, it's good.
It's a good solid foundation to kind of have on that one.
But, uh, thanks again, Lindsay, for sharing that with us.
I always love to kind of have those kind of, uh, you know, discussions at first.
I think it goes back to, you know, building a foundation around yourself, you know, surrounding
yourself with the people who are helping you build and helping build you up as a person.
And also, um, when I think about this quote, I even think about being solutionary, you know,
don't accept what is out there as far as applications.
And, and, um, you know, we're, like I said, we're so early in the space, there's so much
It's like, pick a thing and make it because there's no, um, there's none of these like
set companies like there are in web two or in corporate, in the corporate world, you
know, you can be the go-to for pretty much anything here.
So I was having a conversation with somebody about that.
It's like, uh, there's, there's like, it's been so much time that people are kind of setting
the standard of certain things, but it's like, there's a chance to grow and build on
anything that you kind of want to, but it's getting less and less.
So like the times now, like take that opportunity and try those things out.
And you know what I mean?
Cause, um, before you could use almost like throw anything up at the wall and people were
buying into it, but now it's like, what is the use?
What's the value for value?
I understand that like, um, yeah, like I'm a growth, like value investor at the, you know,
if you look at this on a, a more of a traditional level, like people you're buying NFTs and the
hopes that this project in this thing turns into a company that turns into a product and
you become one of the early investors.
That's what your hope is.
Or you're hoping to, you know, let the price run up or dump on somebody else and be like,
Like that, that's the reality of like what really goes on.
Like if you zoom out to like the 12 months, like think about how many people aren't here
at, uh, you know, you, you know, sold for a profit and they ended up got the bags.
Like that's reality of what really happens.
And, uh, it's okay that it happens because we all accept that getting into this because
of the beginning and end of each day, these are, you know, things that we were buying with
our own money, making our own decisions with.
And, uh, I don't know, I think kind of having these discussions within our community to kind
of bring up like, you know, mental warfare basically is like your strongest asset and
like having a solid foundation, like Lindsay says.
And that's why, uh, I love how she kind of does her homework to find things that are like
kind of, uh, relatable to, you know, where your mind needs to kind of be in this, regardless
if you're just collecting, like it's still, you know, where it's when you, if you're in
here a lot, you know what I'm saying?
So, you know, being positive, sharing that kind of, that, uh, energy is, you know, you
know, definitely how we like to start this off.
But with that being said, we have some amazing, uh, projects and people in here today, uh,
from developers, from, you know, projects getting ready to mint, uh, to, you know, other
projects kind of doing their thing and setting a standard with that.
And, uh, the first one that we have up here is armor X.
We got block asset in here, carry Barry.
Uh, he's a developer for our server with the, uh, organism, uh, protocol or bot or tool,
or the thing that just continuously grows into this amazing stuff.
I'm going to talk about today.
And we got nor AF doubt as well.
Uh, I don't remember who was in here first.
I don't know if you guys have any times that you got to cut out early, but if you do, uh,
send us a DM and we'll work with that, but I'm going to go with, um, what's it called?
I just remember seeing the big red logo up first.
So if you guys are up and ready, you guys want to come on up and, uh, tell us a little
bit about what you've been building.
I've been privileged to see some really cool stuff that, uh, you know, I told you it doesn't
leave the chats, but, uh, you know, I think you seem too much to be fair.
I think you seem too much may have to, uh, you know, take you out, but, uh, I've been
looking at it, man, I've been like, man, this is, this is, this looks like a lot of
I'm not much of a gamer, but this makes me want to be involved.
Even if you don't want to game, you know, you can still participate in the ecosystem.
Uh, there's plenty of ways for people to, you know, get involved.
I'll, uh, yeah, I'll, uh, I'll give you guys that in a bit.
Um, so yeah, my name's Ryan.
Uh, I'm the founder of Armor X.
Um, and what Armor X is, it's basically a blockchain project to create a population war, um, between the
good guys and the bad guys, um, sounds simple.
It's the battle is all the time.
Um, but we're doing it in a different way.
Basically, we, we want to scale as a community.
So we, we took a model that basically is a scalable population model.
Um, so basically an asteroid hit the planet.
Um, it's taken out pretty much most of life on earth, um, because it contains something
Um, and these are basically the enemies in the game.
Um, you, you start off with 3,000 remaining survivors, which are the elite, um, and because
they're having to abandon all ethics, because no children can survive on the planet, um, they're
having to use cloning techniques to basically create battle-ready soldiers.
Um, so the plan for Armor X basically is to have, um, fully customizable dynamic NFTs, uh,
so you can change absolutely everything.
And the thing is, the community will create their own art.
Um, so you will have a secondary market powered by X-Labs that basically allows you to change
So if you want to add your own style helmet, we were joking about it, but if you want to
wear a giant dick suit, you know, you could literally wear a giant dick suit.
Um, it's completely up to you.
Um, but yeah, that's basically what we've got on a low level.
Um, the game itself is built on Unreal Engine 5.
Um, I don't know if SMS wants to share some pictures.
I have leaked a short preview of the actual assets.
Um, but yeah, it's really exciting.
Yeah, I'll put the other tweet and drop some of that info, but I did put a, uh, you know,
one of your tweets from, uh, the, the account at the top there so people can kind of take
If you guys want to talk about this a little bit, I'll, we'll kind of just summarize
Uh, but you're, uh, it starts with to build a bleeding edge game, uh, ecosystem for everyone
on soul and there's several key components that could be implemented and, uh, you put
them on the custom built NFT marketplace and, uh, the artist driven customization.
Do you want to talk about the art on there?
Uh, kind of explain that.
So the art is made by, um, the, the guy who basically is a multimedia manager for Yule
They've just rebranded to WeGG.
Um, they're actually one of the biggest guilds for web free in the world.
Um, they started off in the Philippines and expanded from that to other areas of sea.
Uh, and they also have some UK based teams as well.
Um, in case anyone's wondering what my accent is, you know, it's, uh, it's UK.
So if you can't understand it or need a translator, you know, I'm sorry, Twitter's still early
We don't have a, we don't have a translator just yet.
Um, but yeah, the, the art is basically, we've, we've done it as an anime style cause it's
the one that resonates most.
You know, we want to see everyone getting included.
So anime, it basically fits East and West cultures.
Um, obviously it's very cultural overseas and in the UK and America, we've got, you know,
animes that have been dubbed like, you know, the, the famous ones like Bleach, Gundam Wing,
all these different animes that are actually coming over to Western audiences.
Um, but it's just something, it's art that speaks to people.
Like you can link the art if you want SMS.
I've also shown a lot of the art to people as well, like the sneak peek room.
I think there's more than sneak peeks in there.
I should have only posted two or three, but literally everyone knows what I'm doing now.
Yeah, I'm posting on the suburb right now.
I don't know if that's active, but I wanted to make sure I get that up there.
But, uh, the art I'm just going to put underneath that so people will be able to check it out.
It's a couple of different variations.
And then it has like one of the pictures where it shows you how you're able to customize all
the different assets in, in, uh, detail.
So you guys will be able to kind of see a little better visual representation of what
he's talking about there.
I was just going to say, if you think about games like Call of Duty and these skins that
they have, everything's cosmetic, even Fortnite, you know, that the thing is you go into this
system and you'll be able to see what skins you haven't unlocked.
It'll have a padlock on it.
And if you click it, it'll tell you how to unlock that particular skin.
So you've got to think that you're not only earning, um, NFTs themselves, you're actually
unlocking achievements too.
Um, so the greatest flex, you know, Call of Duty is a really good example in Counter-Strike
because there were a 50 grand sale of one gun in there.
And this is an asset that's not owned by anyone.
You know, imagine if you could own these particular assets yourself, um, or even create these assets
Is this something you could be able to create and like put it on yourself to create your
own kind of, uh, skins and stuff like that?
How would you go about doing something of that nature?
So the way you do that is basically use a custom uploader that changes the metadata.
So it'll add new metadata to it.
And the metadata that's had through the splicing machine, let's say that you create a new skin
like a ape skin, for example, because there are chances of mutations when you, we're calling
it breeding, but obviously it's using a lab.
You put two, um, NFTs in the system, you then get a clone out and the clone has the ability
to basically take on the parent traits.
So it'll take on the traits from the parent and pass it down.
But the thing is you can also mutate.
So if you take in, I've gave people this example.
So people know this is actually a thing.
If you take in someone with purple eyes and someone with bubblegum trait, there's a chance
that the skin will actually become bubblegum.
So your skin will mutate to bubblegum.
It's just something unique.
You know, you don't really see that kind of stuff in NFTs, but the thing is, is people
add more and more will actually increase the metadata.
So people's traits can actually be one in there.
That's the easiest way to explain it, but we'll have traits packs as well.
So basically if you want a new eye, uh, eye set or anything like that, you can either
buy it on the market, um, or you can take a chance in a random lucky dip pack.
Um, these packs will be all over, but the market itself will be owned by the players.
So the people who own the NFTs, obviously you're a big believer in Fox club as well.
Um, you know, we, we do have a lot of advice from them.
Like for example, uh, Casper Casper is actually providing Onyx branding.
We did a partnership very early on.
Um, so expect, you know, a luxury brand coming out of this as well.
So not only are we touching on the web free aspects, we'll have the web two aspects as
I like, uh, I really like what you guys are doing with the, the gaming, the customization
and how it looks and some of the video.
I'm not able to upload that.
Uh, one of them that you sent me, so I'll figure out a way to share that, uh, you know,
later or if it may be, if I'm not supposed to.
You can share it if you want.
I'm not able to save it directly from my iPad.
Uh, so I can share with the community, but, uh, I'll be honest guys, I'm not pick up a
gamer, but this is, these are the kinds of games that get me excited.
I know it's kind of cause I'm nerdy when it comes to the NFT side of things and the tech
stuff, I want to be involved, but this actually makes me want to like play it.
Like, uh, uh, uh, for, for instance, this is a complete side note.
I did a review on the, the project, the heist, because I like playing the game.
Like it just, there's something about it that keeps me coming back and wanting to have part
of the project and armor X so far, everything I've seen and been able to find out it's, it's
given me the same kind of vibes and I'm, I'm not one of those typical people.
So I can imagine somebody that plays the game, you know, having a, uh, you know, background
to that, liking this kind of concept and the idea about it and having the, you know, the
marketplace, you know, um, available so you can, you know, get your own skins or get
somebody else's like, maybe they make something you like.
Um, but getting into the level of like how customizable they are, like when you say change
in the metadata, are there ways to make some that are better or more rare than others?
You can basically decide how many on that collection run.
So let's say that someone creates a trait.
The only way to get that trait in is actually to use someone else.
So that the ecosystem that we've developed, it uses three levels of professions.
So the profession that we've explained so far is something called the forge master.
So when you stake a survivor, you gain fate, which allows you to customize, um, and it
also allows you to do the breeding system.
But once you use your two survivors, the Genesis, the Genesis are burned, which reduces the main
collection supply, but you can breed up to three clones.
So these cloned NFTs are the ones that then can be farmed for a different token.
So they'll go out and they'll farm fuel or an alloy.
So these three different materials will be used with someone who owns a forge master's
hammer to basically create the armor piece as a blank.
And then someone can create the art that then pins onto that piece, which automatically
So the, the only thing we're obviously not having is things like antisemitic, um, symbols.
So we will check the work before we actually upload it.
Um, but pretty much other than the, um, the check, it's all automated.
So you can literally build this market in a creator's market itself.
The holders will take a share of that market.
Um, and not only the holders, it'd be the people who actually created the art too.
So this would be a DAO system that's run through the, uh, through the fate point system as well.
So yeah, it's really interesting stuff.
It's, uh, you know, this, this has been planned for over two years, if I'm honest with you.
Um, I, we're going to launch it on a different project two years ago.
Um, but at that time, you know, it wasn't really the right market.
So the, the reason I think that the market is right now is because by 2025, the overall
gaming ecosystem will be worth about 250 billion.
Um, and with anime as well, that's roughly worth about five to 10 billion at the moment.
Um, and that's expected to rise too.
So the fact that we're an anime project that you can customize all your stuff in, um, you
know, I'm not building a game.
I'm building a digital nation.
That's the easiest way to explain it somewhere.
Well, one thing I want to say like is, uh, your, your name, uh, armor X play armor is very
easy, memorable type of name.
The branding is on point.
Uh, like honestly, your logo was the one that popped out.
That's why I was like, let's just bring them up first.
Cause I remember seeing that as soon as they came in the room.
So like you're hitting some kind of things that I pay attention to that make you kind
of a little bit, uh, stick out of a crowd, not blend in with like, you know, cause there's
other people going with the same route, but what's going to set you guys out a little bit
And it's these kind of little, little details.
I know you want to jump in there.
Um, so the, the, the reason behind the branding, the main reason behind it is something that's
You say that you understand and you see the logo and you're like, right, I've, I've kind of
seen that somewhere before.
There's a reason for that.
Um, we'll, we'll probably reveal it further down the line, but to be honest, even though
it's such a simple logo, it's really complicated to how we develop that, you know, vector images
themselves are quite complicated to, to develop the, the built in a certain way for brand
identity and color theory.
So that there's a reason that you, you like that particular style.
Um, and you'll understand it psychologically further down the line as well.
You know, we might reveal it, but, um, yeah, for now we'll keep, we'll keep that bit
But I think the thing is the simpler, the better, to be honest, you know, you think about
luxury brands, Louis Vuitton, uh, Supreme, their, their style is very simple.
The thing is you, you understand that simple is premium.
You know, the fact that someone, for example, Nike, they've just got a tick as their symbol.
You instantly recognize it and you know it and you identify it as what it is, you know,
from, you know, any, anything people are wearing, you know, Nike and you know, knockoff.
So it's just making sure that people understand that.
Um, yeah, that's something that, uh, I've picked up by, honestly, I, I learned that from
doing graffiti is making a stamp and image of yourself that people in a glimpse, like
just the outline of your throw up is like a specific design that like all the lines could
Just like a blob, but as long as the outline's there, people would instantly recognize what
it is and like the repetitiveness of using that, putting it out there and then making
Like, it's like you, you, you guys hit that for me and it was like something that, uh,
not a lot of people look at, but if you look at something that someone that's trying to
develop, like you said, a nation, like a digital, uh, nation with these assets and it's
like pretty, pretty cool to see that on that level and how like, you're like, yep, that's
exactly what we were going for.
It's like, I like seeing, you know, my head was in the right spot when I saw
you guys and started looking into the project and the game, uh, and, uh, I'm looking at
It looks like, uh, you guys are minting on Monday.
While we have people here.
So we, uh, we're minting with Elixir, Elixir's launch pad, um, guys who run, obviously, uh,
the ovals, um, really good gang, to be honest with you, being speaking to Luke in depth,
being speaking to clutch.
Um, yeah, really cool people.
If you're not following clutch, follow clutch, you know, it's a really big,
big brain guy, to be honest with you.
Um, I think he's starting to trend as well on NS, uh, on NFT, uh, inspector as well.
So yeah, give him a follow.
Um, but yeah, the main reason we chose Elixir really is because we wanted to give, um, people
You know, we know that the project itself is, is really good.
I know what I want to do with this and I know the direction I want to take it.
Um, and the thing is, you know, everyone can contribute, even if you're not owning an NFT,
you still have a way to contribute in Armor X.
Um, so that X is basically the chromosome of, of life, you know, male and female, and all
of the genders are created from the X chromosome and Y chromosome.
Um, that's why we chose Armor X because it's basically representing that you need to protect
yourself, uh, which is what Armor's for.
And then X is obviously the genetics behind it as well.
The fact that, you know, these people are thriving, that they're trying to survive in
a climate that's dangerous, lethal, and the enemy is always evolving as well.
I think I've said too much there, but yeah, it's, uh, the enemy is going to be crazy.
Basically you imagine a learning machine.
Obviously we know that there's chess bots already in the system.
You know, it learns to play chess.
It might start off as a bad player, get a better player.
Think about that with an enemy, an enemy that changes every time you fight it.
It remembers how you killed it last time and it tries to adapt and change the play style
And honestly, we've got some crazy stuff.
Like if we can get the deal with kick streaming, um, we'll basically have, um, I don't know
if it's said, yeah, I will say it.
I can give a bit of alpha.
Um, so yeah, when you're on the hard modes, so the mode where, you know, you, you could
die, um, your NFT has a chance of being lost against the boss.
But before you do that, you do have to sign an agreement saying you understand that your
If you die, the rewards will be great.
You'll have a very high level of rewards from this.
I can't give you the specifics.
Um, but basically as soon as you click, yes, it'll start the kick stream on our channel
and people will be able to live feed and watch what you're doing.
So people will be able to spectate whether you kill this or whether you lose, um, and
yeah, your NFT will be lost, but we're not, you know, we're not completely wiping people
Um, your NFT will be burned into a DNA canister and then you'll be able to gain another DNA
canister to issue a clone again.
Um, but the way we've built the game, we've built in a way that it doesn't feel play to
win because, you know, I personally, I don't like playing play to win games.
I've played thousands of games over the years, honestly, so many different MMOs, um, and
we wanted a way for people to actually be able to recover quite quickly as well.
You know, there's nothing worse when you feel like you've lost all your progress and you're
like, Oh fuck, I've got to start all over again.
We're more than that in games.
So yeah, we, we developed a way for, so it doesn't feel too punishing.
Um, there is a way to get back on the ground and the thing is as well within the game,
you do have a chance of finding the DNA.
Um, so there is a chance of actually getting NFTs just from playing the game, but these
There's no way in the game to get any more Genesis survivors.
The first 3000 that are going to be minted tomorrow, there will never be another Genesis
What's the price for mint?
And where can we go mint from?
The price for mint was originally, yeah, I've put the price down.
If I'm honest with you, I've done one solve for whitelist and two solve for public.
So the reason for, a lot of people are asking why have we changed the price?
The main reason for me is how Solana is at the moment.
Um, obviously we've seen it bounce back quite quickly.
You know, it went as low as 12 and we're seeing it bounce back, which is really good.
But, um, I just wanted to make sure that as many people who are willing to want to get
into this, they're able to, and I didn't want people to feel like, you know, because
they're in a developing country, you know, some, some of the biggest countries at the
moment, to be honest with you, are like Nigeria, India, um, Philippines, these countries have
a, you know, a lower level, uh, of income.
So we wanted to make it more fair and a more broader range.
So that's why we reduce the mint price.
We just want to be as inclusive as possible, if I'm honest with you.
And the fact that people will be able to rely on their friends to actually build the armor
for him, you know, you don't want to walk about butt naked in a world full of monsters,
So you have to, uh, you have to make friends quite quickly.
There's, uh, only 50 forge masters as well.
So there's 50 forge master hammers.
Um, and literally they're the only people and the only people who ever be able to create,
So how do you get one of them?
Is that like you have to be a creator for that or something?
So we originally, we originally airdropped a Mizorji, um, giveaway rewards.
So we airdropped 50 hammers in total.
Um, there are 48 unique holders and the highest sale for the forge master hammer with 27 Solana.
And that was for a, uh, number 13 hammer, number 13.
So I think he bought it with lucky, a lucky number to be fair.
I like lucky numbers, you know, seven, 13.
I kind of like buying NFTs with those, those particular numbers as well.
I do weird shit with numbers all the time.
Like 68 is one of my favorite numbers.
And whenever I see it, it's just one, two, three, four, 20 as well.
I always try to grab the four, 20.
So do you have any, you know, related to like an ax?
Cause, um, that's like something that relates to me, just axes in general.
I have one tattoo to my ear as part of my graffiti thing.
Uh, I have an ax like canvas.
If there's any kind of ax weapons or cool shit like that, let me know.
The weapon system that we're going to create, the NFTs will actually hold the weapon as well,
but the weapons can only be found in the game.
So we're going to use an upgrade system.
So you'll have a very basic weapon, basically in the world,
not only our planet or the planets, you can find titanium everywhere.
So titanium will be the first metal.
So yeah, titanium is the first metal that you will have.
So all armors will be built.
All armor will be built from titanium.
Like Liz, who, um, is my business associate.
Um, she actually had a, an expert on metametals come in and actually give us,
you know, what, what metals would be found in other,
other places in the Goldilocks environment.
So planets similar to earth.
Um, the planet is called Aetona.
Um, and our people are called Aetones.
But yeah, it's, uh, there's a few Solana surprises as well.
Like we wanted to make sure that the NFTs had some recognizable traits.
So what, one is obviously Solana eyes.
So there's an eye style that you can get,
which has basically got Solana eyes, uh, in the collection as well.
There are 15 gods, um, which are basically,
they have a completely different eye trait.
Um, these will have a bounty on them as well.
So I'll, uh, I'll let people know on mint day what the bounty would be.
Um, but yeah, there's only 15 gods in the collection.
Uh, and the collection is scattered as well.
So literally every single trait can be found in any NFT.
We didn't want to create a floor based on rarity.
Um, we wanted, because you're allowed to customize the NFTs,
you could purchase a common NFT and it could have a legendary trait on it.
So how soon could like somebody,
let's say somebody listening right now is like likes the sounds of it.
How soon could they actually be able to play the game with an NFT?
Hey, like where's that projection?
So the game at the moment,
the demo will be ready on the 15th.
We originally built in unreal engine four because we thought that the web GL
program that we were using, because we're all DGNs.
We don't like downloading the XE files.
Um, so we want to stream it from a browser.
Um, so yeah, by the 15th, we'll have the demo ready to play.
So the first people who will be able to play it will be our Genesis holders.
Um, it would be the people who are tomorrow, just to be clear.
I don't know if we can get everyone on the list, but we'll try to,
but I think we'll probably keep it close to about 50 people.
Um, so we'll have about 50 people to be able to play the game.
The thing is the link will be there.
So everyone can actually look at the title.
They just won't be able to log in unless they've got the details.
Um, and how do you get the game?
You can't now, you know, we're three months in.
Some are at the point where we're ready to mint.
So to be honest, we read,
we had 3,000 people turn up for whitelist and 120 projects collab across
And some are our partners at Bordy Apes, Solana Club, uh, DeWars.
If anybody was to grab one of those,
they're going to be able to kind of go watch the demo or is it open for the public?
Yeah, it'd be open for people to have a look at.
They can, they can look at it.
You know, people will be posting content anyway.
We do have a couple of content creators that we have lined up.
Um, again, I don't want to say who, but the demo is very short.
It's just a showcase of what it could be.
Um, but we continue to develop.
Um, to be honest with you, the same team worked on Foxcart.
Um, so yeah, there's a bit of alpha for you.
They're, they're correct and they're dope.
Oh, honestly, it's such a good game.
You'll, you'll see, but you know, I can't leak anything.
So yeah, I won't say, he'll say it's a Fox.
Um, I'm a Fox owner anyway, so you can't, you can't tell me off too much.
You've definitely given us, uh, more than, uh, you know, we can bite off and, uh, we do
appreciate you sharing this kind of information.
Uh, like I said, I'm not much of a gamer, but this has me completely, uh, intrigued and I
will be, you know, looking forward to minting and get myself part of it.
Uh, cause I like these developing games is kind of see where they go.
Um, so if you want to grab an armor as well, uh, SMS there, they're already on magic
So you can literally just pick one up from there if you want.
I think the floor price is roughly around seven Solana at the moment, but that's cause
the collection is so small, but we, we haven't really, it seems like people are just wanting
But tomorrow I think people will go crazy on them once you realize what they actually
Um, but yeah, I, once people realize what they actually do, you know, the fact is you,
you're creating armor for people.
There's got to be some level of reward there.
Um, so, you know, you can charge it, you know, we have said too much.
You guys heard the alpha right there.
Uh, there's definitely benefits to being early supporting, you know, builders that are really
doing amazing things out here.
Um, I mean, you can hear the quality behind the conviction and all of that.
I like what you guys are putting out there and definitely want to bring you back up, you
know, in a few weeks, see how things are going, see any kind of developments, updates
you guys got, uh, see how the demo has played out was, you know, the community's kind
I think that's awesome to kind of, uh, you know, bring that to light.
I think people like to see that.
Um, so looking forward to it and, uh, definitely share any alpha, uh, not alpha.
Give us the alpha, but, uh, any content that you have, once you guys release that kind
of stuff, share it with us, let us help you kind of get it out there.
Cause I'd like to see it personally.
And I know our community would probably be interested in seeing that as well.
But, uh, if anybody has any questions, feel free to come on up and, uh, ask now because
we are going to kind of switch gears up a little bit, but if you do want to ask any
questions regarding the game, uh, regarding the builders, whatever, this is your opportunity.
You know, you don't always have a chance to talk to the owners and the builders of all
of these companies, but, uh, you know, here we are right here.
So if you want to come on up, we'll give you a few minutes and, uh, we'll have DZ play
on some, uh, play some music and we'll switch things up a little bit and, uh, see where we're
I just had a quick question.
So you guys are on, uh, Solana.
Um, and when you're, I was reading through one of your tweets while you were talking
about bringing on, uh, like your other assets and avatars, is that specific to, uh, Solana
chain, uh, or is it going to be a potential for cross chain?
It sounds really, really exciting.
So the company that I work for is called mirror world and they developed a program called
What smart platform is it's an SDK.
That's basically a cross chain solution on EVM.
Um, so we, we can basically work on any chain.
We work on Ethereum, work on BSC, work on sewer.
We've started to integrate sewer now.
Um, so yeah, the, the good thing is in the future, the, the enemy might become, have you
ever played a game called evolved?
It sounds really familiar.
I think my wife's played it.
She's, she's more of a gamer than I am.
So the, the thing is that there's a, a way to play as the enemy on evolved.
So you play as the enemy and you're fighting the other players.
So wouldn't it be exciting if you basically had two blockchains against each other as
rivals in a population war and basically whoever died in the game would, um, reduce the other
So yeah, that's all I'm saying about that.
Can you imagine the war between Solana and sewer?
If they were a case that they were actually warring in the game, like imagine like a
Tekken style beat them up or something where literally if someone died in the game, that
NFT is burnt and it reduces the supply on that particular blockchain.
You know, I've said too much.
I'm going to put myself back on silence.
That's really, really cool.
This guy cannot contain all the offer.
He's just letting it all out.
But, uh, no, we appreciate you spending your, you know, your Sunday with us, given
us this time, uh, love hearing about what you're building and what you got going on.
I'm going to be, you know, taking a look at everything and keeping my eyes on your project.
And, uh, like I said, we'll bring you back up in a few weeks just to see where things
are at and, uh, kind of see where things are going.
And, uh, again, thanks for spending your time with us today and giving us all this information.
Uh, you guys make sure you're following, make sure you got your notifications on.
If you want to, you know, stay up to date with everything from, uh, armor X, I think
they got, uh, you know, bright future ahead of them.
They got, you know, good developers, good team.
It sounds like everything's kind of checked off and, uh, it looks like a great opportunity
to get in early on something like this.
So, uh, definitely a good one for sure.
But, uh, let's go ahead and switch it up.
I think we, uh, let's see who we have in line.
It looks like Narn AF, you're, you're next on the, just in the row.
I don't know if you guys have any time constraints, but, uh, you guys want to come on up, uh,
DZ real quick, got any music you want to play real quick before we switch things up, kind
of bring the energy back up to the top.
All right, let's get that.
Well, uh, we're set the room.
You guys make sure you like retweet, get some friends in here.
We got some other things to talk about.
So, you know, then go back and listen to, uh, you know, Armor X's kind of whole info
and, uh, you know, explanation about what they got going on.
But, uh, go ahead and play some music.
And then we'll hear from Narn AF.
I only got one thing on my mind.
You got me stuck on the thought of you.
You're making me feel brand new.
You're more than a sunshine in my eyes.
That, uh, definitely does it for me.
I don't know about you guys, but, uh, it looks like Lindsay's having some dollar
store internet problems over there.
So if she wants to come back up and, uh, see if we could bring up, uh, Armor X, she has
a question about your marketplace.
If you guys got another minute and I apologize, Narn AF, uh, just definitely blame it on Lindsay's
internet this time because finally I'm in the driver's seat.
I get to make fun of somebody's internet.
My dollar store internet is amazing.
Um, I don't know if Armor is still here, but I have a question.
Are you, um, are you talking to a gift card to go like down to Walmart or something?
I had a question about your, um, NFT marketplace.
And, um, I wanted to know, are you guys going to do, um, Solana NFTs only on there?
And, um, when's your, what's your projection for putting that one out?
So the, the marketplace is actually developed by the main company I work for.
Um, so I work for a company called mirror world, um, that developed something called the
Um, and they have their own custom marketplace.
If you want, you can, you can check out the marketplace.
If you type in marketplace.mirrorworld.fun, you'll be able to see that it's a fully customized
So we'll have our own API that we're creating, um, that basically allows you to look at the
Like one thing I didn't mention is the stats, like every NFT was born, they're not the different.
So a common might have different stats to another one.
Like there's a role between 20 and 49 on all the stats, which are five stats.
So you have, for example, look, speed, strength, uh, all these different, what we call project
And these project skills can be enhanced by using, uh, nanotechnology.
So yeah, there'll be people who can basically create augments that increase the power and
stats of your, uh, of your natural abilities.
Oh, and they'll be able to purchase the traits on the NFT marketplace.
Yeah, but you're not only able to purchase the traits, let's see, you can purchase the
So if you've got a player and he's the best in the world and he's, you know, level 100,
he's already onto his, um, yeah, I don't want to say that.
He's already onto his other things, um, cause he's max level.
Um, you can buy that player and all his inventory as well.
So when you actually go to look at the NFT, rather than, for example, going to, uh, Magic
Eden, Tenza, other markets like that, you can see the hidden traits.
So you can see the game traits.
So for example, it can pull in all the stats of what the NFT has, what inventory it has,
whether it's carrying 20 weapons, 30 weapons, whether it's a God, whether it's, you know,
finished all these different modes, speed modes.
So you can truly buy your, your player.
It's, it makes it very dynamic.
Um, so basically the, the NFT, the player, it updates over time in the metadata and that's
what changes the stats in your wallet.
No, no, it's the game data that's pulled in.
So if you're on that mirror world website, um, if you just click on any random NFT, you'll
So the two games from mirror world, um, and it also shows you the skills as well.
So you can see what skills it's got.
The, the other market as well, which we haven't explained is the whale market.
So what, what whale is, it's basically a backpack, but it's an artificial unit that basically increases
and grows as you, um, as you kind of like a, uh, how do I explain this without giving too
Kind of like, um, like a Tamagotchi kind of.
So imagine that you've got this unit on your back and it starts off small and it becomes
more intelligent over time.
Like whale is an abbreviation.
It stands for wing hybrid, artificial, uh, intelligence.
Wing hybrid, artificial learning, um, artificial machine learning, which basically means that,
um, it will learn from you.
So it learns different, how do I say it without giving too much?
It, it learns different skills.
So one thing that we've done and we took a lot of pride in is actually mapping, um, all
the armor to different texture modifiers.
What I mean by that is if you know your skills ready, you will be glowing.
So your entire character will glow.
Um, just telling you that your ultimate special is ready.
You're rewarded for aggression as well.
So if you sit there with your, with your sword, your claymore, just smashing the enemy,
you'll get damage modifiers.
But if you roll away or anything like that, you're punished for basically not being aggressive.
But then there's other play styles as well.
Like for example, if you're using a gun, you're a machine user, um, and you're shooting
the enemy, you, you're also a healer as well.
So you can change from shooting the enemy to actually shooting the player to heal them.
But obviously these are burst charges.
So you have to like holding the button, for example, to get a big heal off, um, or a small
heal so that because we want to save on the service space rather than hosting it as an
MMO, because MMOs are expensive, to be honest with you.
Um, we've created it as an instance game.
So what that means is people are able to host games for people to join and you can have
up to, we haven't decided yet, but it's either four or five.
Five players playing at once.
So you'll have one guy, for example, stood with a big shield and his job is literally
just to hold the shield button down.
But as the enemy hits you, the, the shield will obviously take damage.
So the stamina bar will go down for the shield.
But as you release, it has time to recover.
So people will be able to swap in.
So imagine you have two tanks on this massive boss, um, and that's hitting you like crazy.
You'll be able to step back as one guy and then throw another guy in.
But then obviously there's another person trying to heal.
There'll be, you know, the boss will whip its tail or, you know, throw missiles or I'm giving
So it is like the MMORPG style gameplay.
But we've kind of scaled it in a way that makes it easy to play.
Um, we don't want a game that's hard.
Like we want it to be easy to master, but difficult, easy to learn, but difficult to
You know, someone who's got 500 hours in the game is going to be better than someone who
has, you know, four or five hours in the game.
Um, but no one play style will be the same.
We're using procedurally generated worlds.
So what that means is when you portal down to the world, you clear the first room, for
example, the wave of standard enemies.
And then when you get to the boss at the end, they're, they're always different.
Um, the other thing you'll be able to find in the world, but we've not really announced
it just yet is like a pet system.
So there's a chance of finding pets wild in the grass, for example, or you might find it
That's a really good way of looking at it.
But the pets will be able to enhance your natural abilities as well.
So like, for example, if it's an affectionate pet, uh, all right.
I'm not going to say any more on that, but yeah, you'll have some pets.
And they'll, they'll fuck.
There's like a little cat, which is like blue with like glowing stripes on it.
And then, yeah, there's some really good animations and art.
I, sorry to hop on late and ask, but I was just curious.
You know, as many questions as you want, I'm, I'm an open book, to be honest with you.
You know, I've only ever been, to be honest, I've been too transparent from day one with
Um, well, no, we definitely do appreciate it, but, uh, I definitely appreciate it.
And, uh, definitely feel free to come back, you know, Tuesday during our other show, Simply
Feel free to tell us if you want to in there.
Um, you know, I'm sure we will not be paying attention to writing down any notes to, you
Um, it'd be a good time to talk more about that, but, uh, we do have our rep from the,
the shrimp and team maggot in here.
Just wanted to give a huge shout out.
Let him come up and talk about the shrimp real quick.
We recorded a podcast the other day, had a good time laughing pretty much the entire
So I don't know if there's any value other than us laughing at each other, but you know how
Uh, it's always been one of the best times with these guys.
So it's been an honor to be able to have them, uh, you know, sponsor the spaces all week.
And, uh, he just kind of found out they're doing it all week.
So let's give a huge round of applause out to them and come on up here and, uh, you know,
have a word with, uh, Solana.
Let us know about why we're shrimply chilling today.
Am I, am I shrimply, shrimply chilling now?
Am I, is that what we're going for?
Um, was that, was that Ryan on before?
I like literally just jumped in.
Uh, yeah, I thought I'd just jump in.
It seems a sponsor and it only seems fair that we, uh, jump in and see how we're doing.
Uh, what's been going on?
You want me to talk shrimps?
What do you want me to do?
Uh, no, we just kind of had, uh, Armour X kind of come up, had Ryan talking about the game
and that they're minting tomorrow.
Uh, we were just kind of going over, uh, all the ins and outs of that, asking some questions.
But, uh, I was telling the, uh, the audience here that the shrimps have been, uh, you know,
pivotal in this whole community aspect of Solana.
Um, that, you know, they're number one meme, number one jiffy guys in the game.
I mean, you type in, uh, D God shrimp come up, you type in almost anything you see shrimp in there.
And, uh, we're having a conversation personally, me and you talking about how some people in, uh,
you know, outside of all of this are seeing these kind of pop up.
And it's, uh, once it starts to get to that level of like meme ability, people, they start to relate
it to just like everyday stuff that you see a huge change in what the value of the shrimps do or mean.
And, uh, that's why a lot of these whales, I was telling them that, you know, some whales came through
and swept the crap out of them and, uh, you know, ran the price up on me when I wasn't paying attention.
So F those guys, but it's, it's fair game.
It's fair game, you know,
Shrimps are literally, uh, yeah.
Shrimps are more popular than shrimps on Giffy to be honest with you.
More popular than the actual crustacean.
If you type in shrimp, I'm pretty sure it comes up with shrimps as well.
So I'm pretty sure if you type in Pepe, we'll probably hit that feed as well.
And, uh, during the intro, I did have to say we were, uh,
Shrimplana made shrimple.
That's what the sponsor said.
I can't say it and keep it together because it's just too funny.
Uh, but no, we definitely appreciate, you know,
you know, being able to provide a couple of shrimps to give out to the audience here.
Uh, so you guys, if you haven't,
I wanted to remind you the little button down there in the corner,
just go ahead and comment, uh, simply shrimping, simply shilling,
whatever you want to on there.
Just make sure you enter it in there.
And, uh, you know, towards the end of the show, just be in the room.
We're going to give that out to anybody that's in here.
If you need to leave, uh, like send me a message.
So if I do pick you, I'll see in that message that you, you know, you said,
Hey, I got to go, but I'd still like to be involved.
I think it's the fairest way to go about it.
Or we're just going to go to whoever's in the room.
But, uh, there are a couple of shrimp that have entered into the wallet and I will
definitely be going ahead and giving them out today.
Um, but with that being said, we were going to speak with Nara AF Dow.
I heard some really cool stuff in another space.
Wanted to give them an opportunity to talk about what they've been doing and what they kind of
So if you guys are ready to come on up, uh, I want to thank the shrimps again, uh, but
go ahead and let us know what you got going on.
Uh, I am the NAR father, leader of Nara's Fuck Dow.
Appreciate the opportunity to come up and speak with you and tell you all about my project.
Uh, we are a project and we are on a mission to share web three art with every town.
Uh, we have this amazing wealth of creativity, uh, that is happening within web three and it
is a very small segment of the population.
So what we're doing is we're pooling our members, NFTs with IP rights in order to monetize them
through print on demand, merchandise, branding, uh, developing it into a fully fledged, uh,
company, uh, all different aspects of, uh, the potential medium that you can create when
you're working in the digital realm.
Uh, because the metaverse and what we're living right now is the decentralization of
We all have the opportunity and the ability to go in and create what we want to create
in the metaverse, uh, and in the digital realm.
And that is where we are going.
We're going towards more experiences that are going to be a combination, uh, as well as enhancing
just our overall experience as humans.
Uh, so I hit on this idea of pooling and bringing together in the aspect of community.
Cause that was really what resonated with me in 2021.
Um, when I got rugged for probably the sixth time, uh, and I was like, well, okay, what
I bought it for a reason, uh, cause art is soul speak.
And there's a reason of why we are drawn to particular images.
Even if it's silliness, silliness is honestly, we need to have more silly in our life.
I like that you said that.
Cause, uh, that's something we kind of want to jump in and talk about is, uh, the relation
And that's what I heard about, like when you were talking about, I was like, man, this
dude really, he really does look at the art for us.
And like, yeah, there's a value of it and a tradability or whatever, you know, value put
But the fact that just the way you were kind of phrasing it and talking about it, I was like,
he really appreciates art regardless of the rug.
He wanted to find something cool to do with it.
And I think that that was what really, uh, stuck out to me the most.
I love that about, uh, which you kind of were putting together, uh, but I just wanted to
jump in real quick and say that.
That's where we are here to empower and educate, to give that opportunity for our members.
Uh, so the members can, uh, as far as the expectations of, uh, your participation, it
can be as little as steak and send me some wallets and we'll handle everything as far as in
the, the design and, uh, the marketing and, and the other aspects of, uh, of that particular,
And then, uh, we're set up to where all of our members share in sales.
Uh, we pump 95% of our operating profits back into the company, uh, half of it going to
And then the other half going to the operating entity, because we have two different companies
that we've set up for protection, as well as that.
This is how a company, this is, NFTs are a new way to start a company.
It's, uh, uh, kind of a variation on crowdfunding, but there is more of a resonance to the, uh,
the values and the founders and also looking at what it is that they've built.
We've, uh, uh, we've, we've, uh, we've been building, uh, for over a year is when I got
We launched at the end of November, uh, and we have been steadily growing in our membership.
We're up to a hundred members, uh, we, we don't do any kind of paid promo or anything
Like we want to find individuals that want to share more.
You, you have to have that mindset of wanting to share to be successful in our organization.
And if you don't want to share, uh, there are plenty of other options for you and that's
Uh, uh, but it really, the mindset and the, the energy of what I put into this project
is developing the culture of this business.
I'm looking at creating, um, every one of the letters in NAR AF have a very specific
Uh, I'll just run through those here.
You can read them, uh, up top in the nest as well as, um, I just love talking about this
stuff, but it's gratitude, uh, nimble, accepting responsibility, abundance, and
That is what we hold dear.
That is what we focus on.
We are here to support, to adapt, to embrace change, uh, equal opportunity for everyone.
Cause that's really what I see as a quality is it's equal opportunity.
And we now have that equal opportunity of being able to create our worlds, um, create our games,
have the fun that we want to tell our own story and put yourself into this character for
a little bit and just play around a bit and see what comes out.
Uh, the, the AI tools that are here now are so amazing to help with sparking that creativity
Like I've used it for helping me with like outlines and developing websites as a tool
to say, Oh, okay, here's, here's a few suggestions.
I'm still going to take it in my voice and go through and, and do it.
Um, but it's, it's just another tool that's here to help for those that aren't able to put
what's in their mind into a picture or if they have trouble getting their thoughts down in
a cohesive manner, it, it helps you.
So we are definitely embracing, uh, the AI technology and what we can do for both automated
Uh, that's one that I've been looking at.
Um, there's only one option that's really expensive and they only do like four items.
So I know it's going to get better, uh, uh, as far as in the, the ability for creating
And, and the, the grand vision of where I see this is that with the wallet registration,
the customer, uh, who is coming to the website answers a few questions and it will guide them
to the particular designs that we have based on whether they're looking for, uh, like a
silly animal character or whether they're looking for something abstract, uh, or looking for
a shrimp or they're, uh, looking for a fox, that's what they're looking for.
Or they want something that's going to make them smile.
It then comes up with, here's the potentials from what we, we have from our members and
you can pick and basically it's print on demand.
Uh, it's so yeah, go ahead.
What if I was to say this, let's say I'm in the audience and I was like, all right, I
want to make a picture of Magus PFP that says shrimply shrimping.
How would I go about doing that?
Magus said you would pay for it too, but that's just the alpha.
We, um, so we work with, uh, projects as well.
Just, uh, if there's any kind of partnership, anything that projects want to do, we love
So we help and provide all of the infrastructure in the backend.
We help through with the design.
You guys send orders over and we split any of the profits that we make off of it.
I'm very transparent in what our, uh, profit margins and what our pricing is for both my
members as well as for, but I mean, there's, there's profit baked in.
Of course there is any business.
So my question that goes to that is what I'm, I'm seeing is now as the NFT holder, I get
part of that profit sharing.
So like my role is almost like being part of like the business owner in a sense where
I have, uh, a part of that with it from the collection where I can hold that.
And are there any bonuses, multipliers, uh, levels of having anything that kind of tear
you up with your, your sharing, or is it like per, let's say, uh, what was the collection
It's a thousand NFTs and we've sold 25.
So like, let's say if I had 20 of them, I got 95% of each, you know what I mean?
Or whatever that divides it up by 20.
And we base it off of the card sold.
So the denominator is a two 53 right now.
So, uh, that portion is the more cards you hold, the more percentage you're going to get
Um, you get the biggest percentage when it's your items that are on the, uh, on the products,
which it gives the incentive for the members to be communicating through word of mouth and
telling people about repping their, their, uh, favorite, uh, merch, because we offer, uh,
So that's a very, very healthy discount for all of our members to be able to get what
Realistically thinking to me that this is something that you would find more profit and more opportunity
if you were to also, you know, reach out to web to like normal people, I guess we could
Uh, but like somebody, if they were getting like a baseball, a t-shirt for their team
created, that's something that it would make sense to me to use this, you know, cause at
least there's some kind of kickback for owning the NFT when it comes to the profit sharing
And since you can do print to order, it doesn't have to just be a local person or a local
You can, you know, upload work with this kind of layout.
I don't know what your capabilities are.
Uh, it doesn't have to be like a baseball, you know, uniform, like logo or whatever.
I'm just saying in general, it could be even, you know, uh, you know, a public works company
that just needs something for the county or something like that.
But wherever you get your, your shirts made or any, any kind of, um, item that like you're
saying, uh, this would be something that you could suggest to them if you were holding
it, you know, like, Hey, check this out.
This guy does this anywhere.
Basically, you know, load up your image, give them some ideas.
And then, uh, you spoke about marketing.
How do you guys help with marketing?
And, uh, do you use SEO or is it something that we'll just kind of explain that a little
Uh, so yes, we definitely use SEO on, uh, in all of the tags on our website of our biggest
marketing has been networking through collections and spaces and a collab center has been an amazing,
uh, partner, uh, that bring communities together also through, uh, NFA, uh, and, uh, sit over,
um, also with the crypto homies.
So that, that's our, uh, original partner and still partner on the prints on demand, uh,
We've added additional vendors to get other products.
Um, I'm looking into some of those more, uh, like smaller ticket items, but the things
that are really cool, like guitar picks and air fresheners and, and just stuff that is,
There's, there's so much, uh, potential out there and there's people doing great work
in production, focusing on sustainability, uh, hitting all, and, and, uh, this just in
time inventory and print on demand reduces so much waste.
So that's kind of what I like about it.
Cause with me doing the one-on-ones and kind of starting a one-on-one project basis, I wanted
to work with somebody and something of your nature.
I've talked to a few different people and, uh, there's a line of apparel and a merchandise,
uh, where you got to look at it.
Like, I don't want to stop at just nice apparel, but I also want the opportunity for affordable
merchandise that I can kind of put in like a gift basket, especially for one-on-ones because
And, uh, you know, that just means a lot more to the holder and my conviction and them
It's a value for value proposition in my eyes.
And that's why I kind of look at it that way, but finding something where it takes all of
I don't want to do that work, honestly, like I don't want to build a house.
I want to be, I want to be in a nicely built house.
You know what I'm saying?
Something that is done correctly.
And, uh, that's what I like with what you're doing.
Lean manufacturing is key in my opinion for, you know, a long-term sustainable growth with
high profit margins because it cuts down on the overhead.
So, you know, me running a business or running any kind of a platform, if I wanted to have,
you know, access to merch, I want you to be able to like, basically click the link,
click your size, click order, plug in, um, you know, how you're going to pay for it.
And that's what kind of, uh, at least my next question, uh, can you pay with, uh, crypto?
Can you pay with tokens or anything like that?
Do you have anything set up along those lines?
Uh, it's active as of, uh, Friday morning.
They're based out of Switzerland.
Uh, they accept, uh, a hundred different tokens on, I believe eight or nine different chains.
It does the, uh, it does kind of a conversion on the fly.
Also, if it's a token, that is not, uh, one of the, uh, the standards on their list, but
yes, we just added that ability to be able to, uh, purchase via crypto.
Um, so that, uh, is, is really big.
And certainly with, with you as, uh, running a project, we can talk about, yeah, it's, uh,
how we can collaborate because it's definitely is win-win of getting additional exposure and
And it's, we were in an attention economy.
So what I can do to, uh, get my message out.
I'm all about it because I, uh, I made that tweet earlier today, but, uh, my idea is to
have a place where people that want to support the YouTube channel where they can get merchandise
and kind of rock a t-shirt or a hoodie or, you know, get a coffee mug or something like
that, where they, you know, that's where they go for their news and their, all that kind
But I like what you got going on.
I like the whole concept.
And, uh, can you just, give us a quick background, um, about like you kind of like where you come
from, any business, any kind of, uh, education or something there.
So, you know, just a success in life, uh, kind of stuff, just kind of know who, uh, NAR as
fucked out, you know, is, and, uh, what's your name?
I just got, I want to keep calling you NAR.
Uh, my handle is my name.
Uh, my background is, uh, I have my, uh, MBA.
Um, I come from the, uh, legal cannabis market.
Uh, I've actually been in cannabis 20 years, 15 of it legally.
So, um, that is, uh, um, I opened three locations that were retail as well as, uh, cultivation and
handled that multi-site, uh, I was director of operations for the, their entire business
So I was that regional director.
Uh, I did that for a few years cause I've actually, I had the license, um, and we had
Um, um, I divested, moved up to Oregon, got in the medical cannabis industry here cause
it was shifting over to adult use.
So I, I'd led the charge for these two shops.
It was two retail stores that had basically zero policies and procedures cause Oregon was
Uh, that I came in and for switching over into adult use, you had to have specific SOPs
for every single thing that you were doing.
So I led that, uh, as well as doing all of the inspections and things with them.
Uh, after two years, I shifted over into cannabis consulting.
I've been doing that since 2018.
Uh, I have helped open, uh, facilities.
I've helped people with planning.
I've helped them with branding and, and, uh, development.
Um, and I have some, I have some recurring clients that I work with.
I also have something that I'm working on in, uh, ag tech, some crazy, amazing technology
for cannabis production, uh, that we are about that we're commercializing.
Like we, we have two research partners and we, um, are, are hitting the market with it.
So, uh, it's just, it's amazing.
I like where your head's at with this.
Yeah, no, I definitely like where your head's at.
I like, uh, you know, your background.
I mean, I just kind of curious sometimes though.
I wonder, you know, where people kind of came up with these ideas, what makes them tick.
And, uh, you know, just finding a little bit about the people behind the PFPs on a quick
basis like that gives us a little bit more conviction into, you know, is this going to
be a successful business and venture?
Uh, but yeah, I mean, you answered a lot of questions that I had.
I don't know if anybody in the, in the audience wants to come up, but I do want to introduce
Uh, he's a homie coming over to, uh, uh, Solana.
I think he's mostly from Ethereum.
He knows a little bit about it, but I give him a follow, you know, uh, he's kind of checking
out what's going on with, uh, you know, our community and getting, uh, you know, a feel
for what we kind of represent here with Solana made simple.
And, uh, what they're doing right here is a pretty interesting project where you can
get your merchandise and your, your business end on that end kind of met.
Um, looking forward to talking more about that, um, and, and seeing kind of where you're
Um, but what kind of, uh, successes that you have, what kind of projects have you worked
with, uh, in the recent past?
Uh, let us know, you know, kind of what we could see on that.
Uh, so we've been working with the crypto crew heroes on Polygon.
Uh, we have also been working with Seidel to help with, uh, supporting their merchandise.
Uh, we're going to be, uh, now that they've got all of the things with their, uh, they
ran into some contract issues, so they had to address that, but we're going to be, uh,
Um, we are in talks with a couple other Solana projects that I can't name, but, uh, uh,
we're always looking, um, at, uh, at how we can help to support and just take away that
aspect of having to think about it because there are a lot of moving pieces to it.
We already have everything structured, set up, uh, organized companies.
The Dow is an LLC in Wyoming.
And then I have the operating entity in Delaware.
So we, this is set up the right way for longevity because it is a company and we are running
I knew you, that's what you said.
I think it's just a building or some online service that, that I was able to do.
I was going to say, it's probably one of those big empty buildings fucking just sitting up
It's right in the middle of us, but, uh, that's, that's, uh, very funny, but, uh, I'm
taking a look at your page here on your Twitter, just kind of looking around for some links
Cause I want to make sure people know where to go to check you out.
But, uh, you know, you can follow the page here and then the website looks like is
There's the shop and then your regular website, right?
Yeah, I think we lost him.
I was just on mute the whole time.
Oh no, it was just on mute.
Yeah, everybody was doing the same shit.
Just like, wait, who's going to move first?
But, uh, just looking for some links to share to make sure people can get in contact with
you and follow up if they had any questions.
Uh, but we'd definitely love to have you back on in the next few weeks, see how things are
going with you and, uh, you know, see how, you know, everything's been going.
And I appreciate the opportunity and, uh, good looks to everyone.
And I'm going to hang out and hear about some more cool ass projects.
Uh, love to have you here and our support.
We definitely appreciate it, but, uh, we are going to go ahead and do a giveaway and
then switch things up a little bit here.
We have these spaces sponsored by the shrimps.
That's why you see the name, James, the top shrimp, Lana made shrimple.
We're simply, or shrimp, Lee shrimping today.
If you guys want to go ahead and enter real quick before I spin this thing up, hit the
button down on the, uh, bottom right-hand corner, little purple one, put a little comment
It gets you entered into this giveaway.
We're going to be giving out one of the shrimps.
I haven't even looked into the wallet to see which ones they are, but all of them are hilarious.
And, uh, you know, they're a great way to get into an amazing community.
And, uh, I mean, it's, it's a go-to for me when people say, which, which one should I
I'm like, well, it depends on what you look for.
You want to look for a good time?
I mean, shrimps, you can't go wrong.
So yeah, if you're trying to make sure you guys, if you're trying to make some money,
you don't fucking bother with shrimps, honestly.
Don't bother with that crap project.
The vibes are good, but no one's got an idea what they're doing.
I don't even know what's going on.
I can't even find the discord.
Once you get in there, you just, you're lost anyway.
Um, there, there is a page on there that gets a lot of activity.
Ironically, you want to tell us a little bit about that, Maggie, while we, uh, pull
Are you talking about the page?
You don't know what I'm talking about?
Should I screenshot this and share it with the world?
Is this the number one holder benefit?
When anyone asks me if there's any benefit to holding shrimps, I just send them the, uh,
the link to the NSFW shrimp content channel.
There's some pretty spicy stuff.
Um, maybe I'll pin one on the, uh, on the, not, not too spicy, but something up there.
I mean, it does say shrimply shrimp and they should know because I mean, we know how you
guys are over there, but, uh, give it a kit and blowing the quivering like that's enough.
I got this, this, uh, set up here for the picker and we got, looks like there's only 11 entries
If you guys want to get in there, I don't know how many people are still here, but you know
So let's spin this thing and get some winners.
Um, and let's see, I'm going to go ahead and do the draw now.
That shit makes me smile.
He doesn't even have a shrimp yet.
That's like the best part about him.
Playing some music for the, for the pick.
Sounds like a shrimp's playing that music.
I don't know what's going on here.
This has to be a fucking joke.
Is he even in here still?
Because you're not in here, right?
I can't believe he won again.
I can't believe he won again.
Dude, there's gotta be, he's gotta be cheating somehow, bro.
Maybe he made the Twitter picker.
I was just going to say, did he design the Twitter picker?
Did he press back forward, back forward?
Let's keep that beef running, brother.
I mean, delete that part.
Warren Contender's still in here.
I feel like you got something set up with this winning, because I've definitely given you
Warren, what's going on, brother?
Go ahead and send me your, well, let me check it probably in my wallet.
But you have won a shrimp.
I'm going to send that right over to you.
Let me see your reaction from you.
Make sure you're still moving in here.
Somebody pumped some life into a Warren Contender down there.
Deez, you got anything for him?
Hey, we got some hearts up in here.
I'm going to get that shrimp over to you.
Make sure we got a pulse in there.
But we're going to switch gears up in here.
And see what we got going on.
We got a couple of other people and another project to talk to.
Harry, are you available?
If you guys don't know who Harry is, you're going to find out right now.
But he's been in a couple of our spaces.
We've tried to record podcasts with him.
And my dumb ass used the wrong PC.
So it had a lot of technical difficulties.
But we live and we learn.
We keep the ball rolling.
But we got a lot to talk about with him.
But we wanted to bring him up so we could talk a little bit more about the organism.
It's the protocol that we have.
And we're basically, what he said, the OGs of the protocol actually helping develop and grow and build this thing within our server.
I'm very, very new and very inexperienced when it comes to Discord.
So let me just, you know, preface it.
This is completely a learning experience for me from the ground up.
But being able to have somebody, you know, that's a developer that understands the needs that I have.
He's making this even easier for the next person that's going to use this because you're basically going to be as like me, like not have to really know too much about it, enough to navigate and to implement this thing in your server.
And what this thing does, it analyzes, it takes data, and it tracks the use and the engagement from your community members.
And it gives you an opportunity to reward people in the way that you want to, you know, reward them.
It lets you kind of cater to the more significant posts or reactions or whatever.
But, Harry, I want you to go into it a little bit more.
I know that was kind of like a brief explanation, but come on up.
Tell us a little bit about your background and what led you to building the organism.
Started the Blockchain Club back when I was at university.
And after that, did data analysis for a VC fund.
I'm building Organism, which is a Discord bot that gamifies community.
So it sounds out there, but that's just the slogan to hook y'all.
But, yeah, it's basically for builders who want to create stronger communities.
As we all know, community is king.
All the most successful projects are engaging a strong community of power users, right?
But building a community is hard, right?
Like Discord kind of sucks.
People's attention spans are short.
And gimmicks just don't work to retain real community.
So I'm building – that's why I'm building Organism.
Organism, like SMS touched on, it allows builders to analyze their community first and foremost.
For some reason, Discord doesn't even provide good analytics.
So, like, builders are kind of left in the dark about the engagement in their community, who their top community members are.
So first and foremost, I provide you with that information.
So as a builder, you'll be able to see easily who your top community members are.
And then I give you token distribution tools to reward them accordingly.
And then I also give out for community members these – what I'm calling digital scorecards, which are basically dynamic NFTs that evolve as they create value in your server.
So it's meant to kind of create an experience for builders where they're – basically, they feel uplifted by their community, right?
Because community is either your biggest asset or your biggest burden.
Like, it can easily just turn into full-time customer support for DGens that are looking for a $20 profit.
But this is meant to, like, identify your power users and accumulate them.
And, yeah, I'll keep it short so we can keep it moving.
But if anybody has any questions about what it is or how it works, I'm open to, yeah, anything you guys want to know.
Well, what I'm going to do is we're going to paint a little bit more of a picture of this, how people kind of see this would work and what I kind of have seen so far.
All right, so let's say you implemented this into your server and you have somebody that's constantly, you know, active and responding and stuff like that.
They're your clear winner.
All right, so what they're going to do is they have a scorecard.
And when you hit claim scorecard, you're going to add a wallet as the user, as the member in the community, in the Discord or whatever.
But it's going to be a Solana wallet.
I believe it's only Solana-based, right, Harry?
Only possible on Solana, my friend.
Look, learning new stuff every day.
And I knew that anyway, right?
But we're going to put a Solana wallet in there.
And you'll have your scorecard kind of just airdropped in there.
So when you go and load it up on Magic Eden, you'll see SMS scorecard thing on there.
You'll see, you know, the logo.
As of right now, it's just like the PFP, the green one as the Your Bags NFT.
But as it goes on, what I'm working with now is developing different stages for, you know, as your scorecard evolves or you grow up in certain levels of points and stuff like that, your scorecard's going to grow from, you know, a little sprattling and then to or seedling, whatever the hell it's called, to like a little plant.
And then, you know, more leaves, more branches, and it just evolves and it grows like over usage.
So you actually have a dynamic NFT, like you're going to see it changing the more you use the server and are active in there.
So, like, that becomes something.
You know, we've talked about ways like, all right, well, what if you get to 100?
Would you get, would we be able to implement some way where maybe you get, like, one that's, like, gold or something like that?
And we do something special for the hundreds or something like that, just, like, as a milestone.
And also, like, it gives a way to implement, like, an artistic ability and, you know, value to it also.
Because as I'm making art, it might be something as a collectible.
You know, you were one of the first people to have the hundred.
You know, you never know where it goes.
But it's something that you can just say, like, hey, I've been part of this community.
You know, I've held on to these things, whatever.
But it's just, it just builds more than just joining up, you know, clicking likes and, you know, being in there.
Like, we like being in our, you know, specific communities that reach out to us or that we can relate to, not reach out to us.
I meant, like, more that we can kind of resonate with.
And I think that finding a way to give that value and to, you know, give your holders value or their members value, you know, is the best way to go about that.
And I think that tool is pretty cool.
Honestly, I think it's a fun way to kind of go about it.
Yeah, the scorecards are a really neat feature.
It kind of reminds me of, I don't know if people have had Mi6 in their servers, but, like, you'll get a random message.
They're like, oh, you just ranked up to level two.
But, like, that's, like, a super, this is basically an on-chain version of that.
So, like, as community members are creating value in your server, sending messages, receiving reactions on those messages, replying, helping other people, they're earning points.
You, as the builder, can customize that algorithm to say how many points they earn for each activity to, like, emphasize, you know, behaviors that are more important to you.
And then you get to create a visual experience around that as they level up.
Their scorecard, their dynamic NFT will evolve.
So, yeah, it's a really cool feature.
I know it's, like, a really simple thing, but, like, as soon as I opened up my wallet and I saw that pop up, I was like, oh, that's fucking cool as shit.
Like, I forgot all about it.
And then when I saw it, it just made me feel like more part of my own community.
I was like, all right, I got to get my score to the top.
Maybe I want to, you know, compete more because there is, like, a level of, you know, who's going to get to the highest point first.
And we have some people that are super active in there.
And, you know, I sit there and I figure out ways where, you know, I can like and comment on the tweets.
But it just makes it more, you know, involved.
And something that I personally was talking with Harry about is, like, he mentioned that you can reward people, you know, with tokens or something like that.
So I want to have, like, a challenge, like, monthly, the first person to get to 100 points.
And you can also see on the Discord or in the server, we're going to break down how you get your points.
Like, you know, one comment's this.
If you say, you know, GM, you get these many points.
If you react to somebody else's stuff, you get this.
Or reply to them, you get this.
So it'll break it down and show you how you get your points.
But the first person to get to 100, maybe you get one Solana.
So it gives back for people that are engaging.
And so we were thinking about doing different things like that as well.
And I think it just creates a fun dynamic that really isn't kind of touched on.
But I do see some hands here.
And I want to get to you guys.
I'm not sure if it was Maga or the Gnar father, whichever one.
You guys are probably paying close attention to that.
I honestly lost my train of thought.
Well, Maga, if you want to go on, we'll let Gnar think about it for a second.
This is, like, the sickest thing.
Weirdly enough, I was actually trying to do something similar.
But is there going to be, like, have you spoken with, like, Rave 3?
Are you going to, like, plug in to Rave 3, potentially?
That could be a sick partnership.
Right now, I'm working with just a couple clients.
I was kind of, and that's, like, intentional in a way.
Or maybe I'm just coping because I suck at marketing.
Like, I want to create, like, really tight feedback loops and, like, really make the product as banging as possible.
Like, SMS has been enjoying it.
If anyone's listening to this and fucks with the vision and understands how important community is and wants to strengthen their community and is willing to deal with, you know, a couple of bugs, then definitely hit me up.
But I will look into Rave 3.
Well, the only reason I say that is because, like, how we've just discussed it is more on, like, an individual project level.
But, like, the next, like, element on top of that is you can combine, like, you can have a platform that combines multiple communities, multiple cards across multiple communities.
And then there becomes, like, this competitive element as well.
And then you can bring in, like, a whole load of gamification on top of that.
And at the point where you do that, that's the point where you probably want to partner with someone like Rave 3 who kind of plug in on the Twitter side.
And then you can kind of plug in on the Discord side.
Like, honestly, this is something that we've needed in Solana for so long.
And it's the perfect chain to do it.
It basically fully integrates Discord with Solana.
So, you're able to, like, have these distribution rails and, you know, these scorecards, these level up, you know, visual experiences.
And this actually evolved from an idea of building basically NFT inspect for Discord.
But basically ranking communities and community members across the ecosystem based on all the value they're providing in the Discord platform instead of on the Twitter platform.
Because that's really where the magic happens is Discord, you know.
On Twitter, you know, every tweet has an agenda behind it.
And, you know, it's a public forum.
People are putting on their masks.
But behind closed doors, you know, in those Discords is where the real alpha is.
Like, you get the right community.
You find the real alpha inside of that.
That's where that intrinsic value is.
And I think you highlight it in such a natural fashion because, like, I mean, you could try to beat the system, but it's going to take, like, actual effort.
But if, you know, you implement this, people, you know, just being part of something by, you know, nature is going to, you know, benefit them.
And I think Mag is right.
It's something that's been needed, you know, for quite a while.
And, I mean, I love to see the connections and the possibilities that are kind of coming out of this.
But, you know, that's why we do it.
And that's why we kind of, you know, reach out to try to elevate the people in here and give them an opportunity.
Like you said, you suck at marketing.
I don't know, you know, much about marketing, but I know I can keep talking about this guy here that has this fucking thing called Organism.
And enough people are going to hear it, and we'll get it somewhere and, you know, start making this thing grow even further.
But I want to thank you for, you know, sharing your time with us.
If anybody has any questions about it, I see there's a couple other hands.
Feel free to come on and speak up.
Yeah, so is this a, is it a bot that integrates or is it replacing a bunch of other bots?
I'm very intrigued just because I know that I've piecemealed together applications from about six or seven different bots.
Yeah, just really curious on that aspect.
Yeah, it's a Discord bot.
How the flow looks is you invite it to your server.
It pops up a dashboard so you can tell them what to do.
First step is selecting which channels you want to analyze.
And then from there, you'll be able to customize the scorecards, customize the algorithm, you know, how many points they earn for each activity.
And then, yeah, create new rewards structures.
The rewards are really powerful.
You can set them on a recurring basis.
So, for example, every seven days, the top community members over the last seven days, you know, get distributed, you know, 10,000 of your utility token or whatever, a thousand of your utility token.
Would it be able to send NFTs as well, Harry?
Yeah, NFTs, any SPL token or Solana.
You just put the address to whatever it is and they're going to pull it away from there, right?
I set you up with a rewards address, what I'm calling it.
But whatever rewards you want to distribute, you just send them there and then I'll see, you know, what tokens are in there and you'll say what you want to distribute and how.
I just want to jump in real quick because I thought about that.
I was like, wait a second.
Because it'd be cool to do custom one-on-one NFTs and send them out to people without them even knowing, you know what I mean?
Just for saying certain things.
And, uh, you'll be able to just distribute tokens, right?
Uh, like pro rata, like those 10,000 tokens will be distributed to top community members accordingly.
Or you can be able to raffle, uh, tokens and NFTs too.
So, like, basically every seven days it raffles off and your community members' percent chances of winning will be based on their relative share of all the points earned over that last seven days.
So that creates, like, a kind of, like, chance, uh, gambling aspect to it.
Sorry if I derailed the conversation and just, like, completely popped into my head.
I was like, wait a second, let me answer this.
I hope that answered your question, uh, Narfather.
And then, uh, Maga, what's going on, bro?
Sorry, I have, like, millions of questions.
I could talk to you for, like, hours about this.
You only get one at a time.
All right, all right, all right.
All right, as many as you want to, brother.
First one is, like, what metrics are feeding into this?
Is it text-based and the reactions from Discord itself, or is it more than that?
So, right now, I'm tracking content creation and content curation.
So, content creation, I'm tracking messages sent, reactions and replies received on those messages.
And then for content curation, I'm tracking the reactions and replies that you're giving out, but also the reactions that you're giving out that are getting echoed by other members, right?
I thought that was, like, a cool indicator for, yeah, for content curation.
Because if someone puts a fire emoji on a message, that kind of flags it for the rest of the community.
And if someone comes along and sees that and is, like, oh, damn, he was right.
Like, this message is fire and echoes that fire emoji.
We want to reward that first person for curating that piece of content, curating the vibe for the rest of the community.
Magazine, these results, like, on, like, the interface in your Discord.
Because that's all you got to do is, like, click on it, boop, right there.
You don't have to go to any other websites.
You don't have to load anything else up.
It's super simple, super easy.
It's as, you know, shrimp-ly simple as shrimp-ly can get.
But, no, it's definitely something I would recommend taking a look into.
And I know it brings a certain character and a vibe to your community that's already existing.
I mean, shrimp's got one of the best ones around.
I mean, I'll be in there more just to harass people knowing that I can benefit some shrimp away.
And real quick to round out that question, a little teaser.
So, I'm working with SMS to implement this.
So, I want to have, like, mantra bonuses.
So, as a builder, you'll be able to set, like, certain mantras that if they include that mantra in the text, then they get bonus points, like a multiplier.
So, if they say, you know, GM or, you know, shrimps to the moon or whatever, then they'll get, you know, bonus points for that.
And even specific emojis, too.
Like, if you have custom emojis that you kind of want to encourage the use of, then you'll be able to, like, set that.
And your community members will get bonus points for that.
Yeah, we're talking about, like, having, like, a power hour type thing.
So, if you came in there and for the next hour, anybody that said simply shrimp-in, you know what I mean, that was in Discord, you're going to get double the points or some kind of multiplier.
Or you might, like, we were just talking about, like, the raffle idea, being able to take that, those specific, like, there's just so many cool ways that you can kind of reward back and build off it.
And these are just ideas, but these are super realistic, practical ideas.
It's about implementing them and then just kind of letting it go.
But, you know, I think that, you know, there's a lot of value in this.
And that's why I wanted to bring Harry up again.
We talk all the time, and I always, you know, invite him to be on the panel because I want, you know, people that might not have the community presence that they need to see these avenues and these tools that are available.
Because some people coming into Solana, you know, might wonder, hey, where do I go?
What's going to give me the most value?
Like, well, go to these kinds of places that, you know, build in the value by just doing what you, you know, naturally are already doing, not expecting anything else.
But, you know, it's for free.
I think it's an amazing thing.
But we are going to switch gears a little bit up here.
But I appreciate everything.
If you have any other questions, DM me.
I think we're going to be opening up a specific channel in our server for anything related to Harry or the organism or the Harry organism, which is kind of a funny name.
Should I draw it with little hairs coming off of it now?
But, no, we're going to be working on a lot of cool stuff, you know, within the server there.
So make sure you guys are taking part of that.
Lindsay or Deezy, if you can get a link to the Discord and post it at the top at some point,
I really appreciate that.
But we are going to bring up Block Asset.
They've been kind of being very patient.
But we've got a lot to talk about.
I've been, you know, a fan of them since literally day one.
I think they're my second NFT I ever purchased.
But I'm going to let you guys go ahead and take the mic.
Tell us all about yourselves and see what kind of questions we can come up for.
What was the NFT, by the way?
What was the first one you got?
It was, what was it, the blockchain?
It was like the Michael Bisping thing.
So I'll just give a quick intro as to who we are and what we're about.
So we're essentially just a marketplace for verified athletes and sports collectibles.
So we've been building now on Solana for over two years now.
So I think we're actually the longest surviving NFT project on Solana right now.
So we've seen it all, seen raps and downs and still here.
So basically, we've at least verified sort of NFTs, digital collectibles with a variety of athletes.
So, as you said, Michael Bisping there, sort of MMA, UFC legend, who's actually a partner in the company as well.
Everyone's got her in the same collection.
So Wayne Mooney, Muhammad Ali, who's a blessing of his family as well.
Hamzat Shamayev as well, who's a massive advocate of ours.
We love working with him.
Yeah, I think we've got over 40 athletes signed.
We're very well known in the MMA and UFC space, especially sort of content-wise.
I think we've got over 16 million views now on our YouTube.
We do a lot of documentary filming with our athletes, which does seem to do really well,
especially sort of top of the funnel onboarding of getting sort of normal sports fans involved into the project and into what we're building.
So, yeah, we're now really close to launching our full platforms, taking a while to all build out.
But basically, essentially, we're looking to merge sports collectibles, the sports collectible marketplaces, a multi-billion dollar industry, basically.
So we don't want to just limit ourselves to just the digital side of things.
So we're now looking to expand and see, OK, what can we do with the physical side as well?
So we've been working to sort of expand our platform so we can integrate that stuff as well.
So basically, if you are a sports fan and you want to purchase sort of a verified sports collectible, whether that's a digital NFT collectible or sort of a physical trading card, for example,
we want Broadcast to be the place that you go to for that.
So now they're a big sports marketplace, so Golden, PWCC, Fanatics as well, obviously a multi-billion dollar company, which has just taken over.
Topps as well, they're going huge on this kind of stuff.
So there's a lot there that we can dig into.
So, yeah, we just want Broadcast to be the place for sports fans to go to for sports collectibles, whether they're digital or not.
So, yeah, we're working some very cool ways to sort of integrate those physical and digital items.
So they can really complement each other as well.
So that's some cool stuff we're working on.
We're also looking at integrating athlete tokens as well in the future.
So we're actually, we're now partnered with Chiddies, obviously huge in the game, got a lot of huge partnerships themselves with massive sport clubs around the world.
So it's great that we're working with those guys.
So that'll be something that comes up a little bit soon in the future.
Yeah, so we've basically just, we've built our full platforms, like it's sort of completely friendly.
To non-Web3 natives, that's always been our sort of our struggle over the last couple of years.
How do we get these normal sports fans that just sit down with a beer and watch the MMA on a weekend to come and get involved in our ecosystem?
So, again, we've been around for two years now.
When we first launched, the tech that's available now was just not available then in order to do this stuff.
So, you know, just for the fact that they say, for example, when you set up a block asset account, you'll be given a custodial wallet.
When we started, you couldn't do that.
That just wasn't a thing.
So that's something we're going to have in there as well.
So, yeah, we built it out to be completely friendly.
There's no sort of Web3 target.
We just tried to stay away from that as much as possible.
Users are, again, provided with that custodial wallet.
Yeah, we've got all our Web3 tech under the hood so users can interact with it without even knowing that they're using it, essentially.
Let's say, for example, our marketplace allows users to sort of buy primary and secondary sports NFTs as well as the physical stuff.
So, like, for example, verified athlete merch.
And then the user is able to then buy those with credit card, Apple Pay, as well as sort of Ethereum, Solana, Polygon Wallets as well.
So we've opened up, even if you are sort of a Web3 native as well, that's fine.
You can connect to all of your Solana accounts and any sports collectibles will show up on your profile as well.
So, yeah, I think I've covered it all there.
Yeah, you definitely covered a lot of different aspects, took a lot of the artwork as well.
So, yeah, we want to give our users a reason to sort of stay on our platform in our ecosystem rather than, I know, obviously,
they're going to come and buy a collectible and we want them to stay as well.
So, yeah, we built out pretty much, like, just imagine Twitter, but with all of your Web3 activity in as well.
So as part of our onboarding, you can attach your Twitter, your Instagram, your Discord accounts.
So all of your social activity from all of these will show on your sort of your profile as like a super feed.
It pulls everything in along with all of your activity on the platform.
So if you're buying or listing or selling an item or taking part in a raffle or an auction, that will all come up on your feed.
So let's say, for example, like, you're on your Twitter feed and it will come up and say that your friend just took part in an auction.
You can say, oh, actually, I want to be into that, so I'll go and put it in as well.
So it all comes up on the feed.
Yeah, and this is all coming out hopefully early July.
We've been working a while on it now.
So, yeah, hopefully early July we're going to get this thing out.
Yeah, and try and onboard as many users into the Solana UK system as possible.
I'm not sure if you can hear me that well at all.
I'm not sure if Blockasset can hear me.
All right, if you can drop down Blockasset and come right back up.
I'm just waiting for you to come back.
But, no, they definitely got some cool stuff over here.
I shared something at the top that breaks down, you know, a lot of what they got going on if you guys want to take a read into it.
What originally got me interested in these guys was just in general MMA, NFTs, like with the fighters I liked I could, you know, relate to.
And there was a Muhammad Ali one.
So, I bought a bunch of these, held on to them.
I made, you know, a couple of Solana and that's when Solana was at like $200 and some dollars.
So, it was pretty cool to get into it.
And I saw the value that they actually had.
Let's bring them up as a speaker.
But I didn't know that they had like a marketplace.
I didn't know all of the other stuff they were doing until, because I kind of forgot about it.
And then I saw Darren Till and the content was coming out.
And I was like, this is really fucking cool.
And then when the Smash Brothers and everything was, you know, coming back around, it brought a lot of light back for me to actually pay attention to them.
So, they actually contacted me, you know, seeing what we were doing over here with Solana Made Simple.
So, I was really excited to kind of talk with them and see what kind of connection they had with like the MMA and bring in that fan base and that user base.
Because there's actually like, you know, there is UFC Twitter.
There's MMA Twitter where it's like that's all they talk and stuff like that over there.
So, I was excited to see that they're, you know, doing live and well.
And one thing I was wondering, have you guys like talked with sponsoring athletes or anything like that?
Or is it just like Darren Till and like, or all the athletes that you have NFTs of?
Are those the sponsored athletes that you guys have?
So, like we've got deals with quite a few athletes now.
So, like I think there's over 40 now.
We don't really sponsor them essentially.
Sort of like they come on board.
We do a collection for them.
And then like when we sort of.
Do they get royalties or something based off of the collection?
All the royalties are all on the same.
So, for example, obviously, to say for example, Wayne Rooney, he was in one of our previous collections.
Every time one of his NFTs is bought or sold, he'll directly just get a cup that will go through on chain for him.
And like essentially we try to like build relationships with the athletes as close as possible.
So, like you may have noticed we have.
The athletes will just wear our merch without us even asking.
So, like you will see them on like a UFC embedded and they'll be wearing our gear.
Well, I mean, you treat people good.
They're just going to want to do that naturally.
And like you guys, you've always gave that good vibe out there.
These fighters, I mean, you go to the gym and unload all the boxes and they give them all the gear.
So, like they'll happily wear and represent the brand for us.
That's awesome to make that synergy with, you know, some high-level athletes that they understand at a core what you guys are doing and what they represent.
They're young enough to see both sides of that spectrum because we are at a point where it's like there's some people that just don't get it, some people that are willing to learn.
And then there's the other that it's just natural to them to see it in that light.
And I really like – I personally love the whole idea of bringing athletes.
It's not just MMA and fighting.
You guys had every, you know, different kind of sport, all like the top, you know, Hall of Fame kind of people in there.
And I thought it was a very cool way to, you know, bring that world and that culture into NFTs.
But as far as the blockchain, I didn't know too much about it.
I'm still kind of learning and digging into it a little bit deeper.
What's the connection with Chili's?
What's the significance with that?
So, we've been working with Chili's, I think, for a couple of months now.
So, they have a little sort of like an ecosystem grant.
So, they've just released their new blockchain.
So, it's called Chili's Chain, for example.
And, yeah, we're going to start building on Chili's Chain as well as Solana with the hope of eventually releasing official tokens for these athletes.
The same, for example, as Chili's do for big sports teams.
So, I think Arsenal, Barcelona, PSG all have their own official tokens.
We're looking to do something similar with our athletes.
So, if it was like Hamzat Shemayev could release his own token, which you could then redeem for experiences and collectibles from Hamzat directly.
That'd be really fucking cool.
That'd be really cool to have that kind of shit.
As far as certifying it, what's like the process to make sure, like the collectibles and all of that?
Like, how do you guys make sure it's all authentic and everything?
My dog just burst into the ring there.
No, I was asking about, like, collectibles and stuff like that.
How do you make sure that they're authentic?
And, like, what's the process of going through that if somebody was to buy something through the exchange?
So, in terms of, like, making sure they are authenticated, again, everything's on chain.
And then it's just a matter of we have contracts with the athletes.
And, obviously, if you go in and see their promoting their collection on their Instagram, that's how you know that it is authentic and legitimate, basically.
I think it's quite simple.
I was wondering where that stem from.
GM, GM, what's going on, everybody?
I just want to – I just been sitting back listening.
And I want to let y'all know it's kind of like, you know, I get credit when credit's due.
It's like a breath of fresh air to actually just hear people just talking about building, talk about new shit they got going on, really talk about NFTs, crypto, Web3 shit, not just a whole bunch of drama.
And rugs and rugs and bullshit.
So, I just wanted to say that it's pretty dope.
I like the Solana community.
I would appreciate that, brother.
It does get crazy out there.
But I would try to keep it fresh and keep it fun.
You got to keep it entertainment sometimes.
You know, with all the fuckery, too.
But don't get it twisted.
But it's just good to know how to go adjust.
You know, this time for this is going to get wild.
But it's still keeping a lot of value in a lot of people.
You know, you can still hear – like, you know what?
I just heard something crazy that people still use Discord.
Like, y'all motherfuckers are still on Discord.
Like, I was like, for real?
Because Discord, it gets just so crazy, bro.
When I first got into crypto, I told y'all I was Solana.
I'm still – I still got Solana NFTs.
And I'm in different chains.
So, I didn't know no better, bro.
I was in every – that shit is just overwhelming.
You're having a dope space.
We definitely appreciate that.
Definitely try to make sure the community is all having a good time.
That's what makes it easy.
It's like people want to be here.
It's not like we're asking anybody.
We just started this from the ground up.
And the white people came.
And they see the value where they go.
And it's like no shame on anybody.
We just do this because we like to.
And it's fun having these projects.
It's like – that's honestly one of my favorite parts is seeing, like,
the people that are still excited to build.
And they have that, you know, that fire.
And then, like, I'm going to have it probably regardless of what's going on in my life.
Like, I'm going to want to do something.
But seeing other people that are just still eager, still want to share what they got,
even when it's hard, like, those are the ones where I start to look at.
And I want to make sure that, you know, whatever kind of reach I can get,
I try to make sure that I include them, even if it's the developer.
Like, because not a lot of people know that the organism thing is available.
But if they knew what they can do for their community,
it takes so much legwork out of them.
Like, all they have to do is show up and be part of it.
And it just, there's a lot of cool things.
And definitely thank you for coming through and checking it out.
I've heard you in spaces.
And I'm like, he'd probably like kind of hanging out here.
And we keep the vibe, the energy up when it's needed.
You know, I grew up where community was, like,
the literally most important thing that you needed to be, you know, a lot.
Like, I depended on that shit sometimes.
And so, I try and make sure I, you know, pay it forward and do something here with that
because it works that way.
But like I said, is there anything else you wanted to kind of add?
I know you were talking about the Chili's thing.
So, if I was to want to invest into, like,
is there a coin or something I can jump into or at least read about?
So, we have our own token.
I think you can get that on just on Radium and Gate.
So, that would be sort of the main token.
Basically, the same as what Chili's is for the Chili's tokens.
That's essentially block is going to work the same way.
Definitely going to look into that.
But I've been definitely a fan of it.
I like, you know, all the content you have.
Is there anything you have coming up?
Any kind of athletes that are going to be able to have any kind of AMAs?
Do you guys set up any kind of spaces like that?
Because I know a person that holds spaces and loves sports.
On the athlete side, it's more normally Instagram.
To be honest with you, that's where a lot of their following is rather than Twitter.
So, anytime we do something, we normally try to do it on Instagram or within our own Discord as well.
I'm going to have to check that out.
I'd like to see, you know, see how that kind of goes.
Because I definitely like getting the opportunity to speak with these athletes.
The other day, I actually spoke with Anderson Silva in somebody's space.
I was kind of curious, like, if you guys did anything similar like that, and if you wanted to, you know, let's talk and set it up.
Because I definitely got a lot of, you know, conversation to have and see where they've made that connection of crypto and, you know, martial arts in general.
So, I think it's an interesting conversation.
And that's, you've answered a lot of questions that I've had.
I don't know if anybody in the room, you got any questions about Black Asset or the NFT side of things, feel free to come on up.
It's something I'll be looking closer into, taking a look at the token.
See if I can get myself a bag or two where things are down.
Not financial advice, but I don't know.
How do you guys feel about the market?
If you got it, it's time to buy.
I bought a couple things yesterday.
That's, you got to buy the dip.
I have huge conviction in Solana and what it is that we're doing.
And the community, the community is going to support.
Bro, I woke up at, like, 2.30 the other night.
And that was when everything was different.
People were going fucking buck-ass crazy.
I was like, boy, this shit's that cheap right now?
I was like, it was just, like, 20, like, two days ago.
Get the fuck out of here.
I'm buying some of this shit right now.
I grabbed, you know, a couple of this, a couple of that.
Everybody's, like, snapping.
I'm just reading tweets, like, okay.
That looks like a buy signal for me.
Let me go take a look at this chart real quick.
I made money on every buy I do by, like, looking at everybody's bullshit, fucking scared tweet.
Yeah, Matic dipped and then recovered real quick.
Like, I think it got down to, like, 50 cents.
It was 59 cents when I bought some of that shit.
Because, like, dude, everything dipped.
And everybody was like, oh, it's going down.
I was like, well, then I'll fucking average down.
It's all about the DC, man.
It's not like I put the whole fucking red mask in there.
But, no, I bought some of that.
I bought Doge because it was, like, almost less than, like, five cents.
I bought all those ones that you see take that crash and probably will recover within the next month or two.
Switch it to USCC if you're really scared.
Like, do what you got to do.
But it's take it off the chain.
Which I'm going to be doing tonight.
So I'm going to be putting some stuff in there just to kind of get a feel for it.
And probably put some content out because this is my first ledger.
And just kind of want to show my experience and my process.
I don't have a ledger yet, so I'd watch it.
Yeah, I'll make it super simple and easy to show you, like, click, plug, play.
And, you know, there was – we had a good conversation about that on our Simply Security on Thursday nights.
It's at 930 Eastern Standard Time.
So if you guys want to come through, tell us your experiences.
If you've been rugged before, if you've been drained, want to know how so we can avoid that for other people.
That's something that we would like to kind of discuss and kind of go over the fundamental basics of Web3 and digital asset security across the board.
It's super important to know that.
So at least if the friends or family members are asking me something at the actual barbecue, like, you know, how do you keep this shit safe?
You know, you can do this.
You can do this, this, this, and this.
Like, so they don't think it's a scam.
But that's, like, too much of a buzzworthy kind of word where people think everything you're doing is a scam.
Like, we've got to change the narrative.
We've got to be able to have the education and the vocabulary to give to people.
Otherwise, it just sounds like the same shit.
So that's why I wanted to run that space.
But we have another segment of the show.
Before we get to that, let's bring the energy back up.
Deezy, if you've got something ready for us, we'd love to hear it.
I don't know if you've got anything from some of the artists we brought up, like Tommy.
I know he's kind of a little bit laid back, but he might have some little hype ones.
Or if you want to play some of your music, I can go for that, too.
But after that, we have Lindsay Devsit.
She has a segment she likes to bring up about some tools, protocols, and cool shit that she's been looking up.
She always gets into those kind of nitty-gritty kind of things and shares it with us.
So let's see what Deezy got for us.
And then we'll switch things up and see what Lindsay's got with the dev side of things.
I'll play one of my songs.
This is Solana Made Simple, sponsored by The Shrimps.
So we are shrimp-ly shrimp-ing today.
Hope you guys enjoyed the show.
And I'm about to change the vibe up a little bit and see what we got from Lindsay.
I'm trying way too hard to stay in touch with all my loved ones.
And soon enough, they'll feel the love.
I know I'm gonna come up.
And, oh, do these hoes love us?
They rush us in public so much that I gotta be straight up ducking for cover.
I got enough back at the pad.
But I guess I'll allow another.
I feel the crowd thunder and I tower over others in talent, skill, and other attributes like attitude.
Action rooted, rapping in this booth.
Bees locked up in a cage.
He must be drinking the punch.
Maybe just some gin and juice.
Besides my grim widens with every boo when they say.
Yeah, I'll take the criticism.
Put me in the light and watch me glisten.
Hear my soul and all of my work.
Well, most of y'all the rhythm's mission.
I could have went through college, but that is not my mission.
To carve my own path into this rock.
The hypocrisy's ridiculous.
Locking up innocent citizens.
Funding people running for administrative positions.
And everyone on their lives in the pop that they pitch in.
And we wonder why people so depressed with life that they'd rather die.
Y'all need to change your frequency to one.
That's hot with natural medication.
Those pills that you're taking are made to dole your mind.
Money controls our minds and we're blind.
And I'm funneling all of my energy into this.
Helping to listen and making some differences.
Stuck in an industry filled with these wannabe's.
DZE pulling the rug from under they feet.
I can't be beat on the beat in the street or in the sheets.
You ain't quite seen anything like them.
I got deeper insight though.
Some think that he's psycho, but most think that he's tight, yo.
Load up my pipe and smoke, bro.
So you're gonna see what it comes to me.
My man is fucking talented.
I love hearing your music.
It's definitely cool to see that side of what you're capable of.
I wish we could see more of the kick streaming and some of the live video.
I like to tune into that.
It was always a good time.
I think you should bring it back.
I got a sick overlay from Fresh and I've been like...
Bro, you could connect with the Armor X dudes with that game.
They said they did some kind of live streaming shit with that.
It'd be something for you to tie into.
I think you should kind of try to connect them dots.
I think you got a good screen presence.
And especially with what you add to this being a director of vibes.
I think it's up your alley.
I'm just gonna say, you know, that's my take.
But that's my take, brother.
I wanted to switch gears up a little bit.
And first and foremost, I want to thank the Shrens for sponsoring this show today.
And the rest of the week as well.
Make sure you guys tune in to them.
We got Simply Chilling Tuesday nights at 9.30.
And then we have Simply Security Thursday nights at 9.30.
Both Eastern Standard Time.
I think it's like 5.30 UTC for all you guys around the world.
We're updating some of the graphics so I can share them out so you guys will have it.
If not, you'll just ask me again.
I'll tell you the same thing because it's not a big deal.
But we'd like to switch it up a little bit.
Lindsay looks into all of these different protocols, tools, bots.
Things are going to help you either on Discord or maybe your management end of things like
outside of, you know, the whole ecosystem.
Just kind of just for maintaining, you know, a little bit more management in your life on
Because I suck at it, but I'm getting better.
And I'm learning some stuff.
Take it away with Lindsay Desert.
So today I wanted to talk about XMTP.
It's a protocol to jumpstart messaging development for creators.
And what that means essentially is it's a protocol where they have a five-minute quick launch
app where you can actually develop a messaging service for your community using their wallet
It is multiple chains right now.
But unfortunately, Solana is not one of them.
Honestly, I think it's really cool.
Like being able to send messages to each other's addresses without having to use cell service
So you can sneak around, slide through DMs.
You just slide right up in that digital wallet.
Is that why we're taking this thing?
Imagine trying to give somebody your address out in the world, like reading it out to them.
Well, that's part of my rule set now.
Like if I'm going to talk to a lady and I'm going to be like, you got a digital wallet?
Well, you got to download this real quick.
And then I'll be like, here, let me hit you with this message real quick.
So it is MetaMask compatible.
I'm walking up the right tree.
It works with most wallet services that are wallets that connect with Wallet Connect, including
I know there's a bunch of them on there.
Um, but some of the cool features of it is that XMTP actually pays to store the data
So the developer, you as the developers don't incur any cost for hosting the messages.
Um, how it works is people.
So there's no transactions at all.
I could just send it right away, straight off the blockchain.
So there is the only transaction is that you, um, sign, you know, for ownership of the wallet.
So you just connected the same way you do like the first time, like the initial signing
Sorry, my dog keeps barking.
But, um, you know, it's really cool because if you both agree to send messages to each other,
But let's say you want to like blast out a message to a community.
If you send out a message that wasn't first agreed upon and sought from the other person,
So, uh, they also disencourage like spamming in that way.
I was wondering, yeah, I was going to wonder, I was like, how does it prevent that?
But that kind of just says like, it makes sense.
They're not going to want to pay to do that.
The gas on Ethereum, you're not going to want to pay to blast a bunch of people some
I mean, it just doesn't make sense.
Um, but yeah, I, I thought it's really cool.
You know, they have, I, the link I put there for you guys up in the, up in the messages.
It's, um, I'm curious, like the, like the best way and use case for it, but I'm sure
that there's a lot of different ways that I'm not even thinking about, but part of it
is like, you could do some kind of like for your community and like, if they have, cause
they have to have the wallet, correct?
They have to have the wallet.
They have to have an address.
They have to be able to sign ownership, um, to receive the message.
Like, I'm wondering how that comes up in the wallet.
Cause you could do something like for your community, for somebody, like a secret, like
winner or something like that.
Like, cause you have a hashtag list or a hash list of all the wallets.
You know, I also envision it as a DAO tool, you know, be able to have a giant group chat
with the DAO without having to refer back to discord.
Like the messages are directly in an app that you created for your community and that kind
of takes it out of any other application, which is, it's interesting, you know, for sure.
I mean, it was when you, you brought it up, I was like, what and why?
And that, that's what I liked about it.
Cause it made me really kind of like stretch a little bit.
Like I think like, how would this be implemented?
And like, what kind of fun ways could you use it?
Like what kind of use cases outside of the box?
Like that's what I really liked about these things.
Cause they question a lot because first thing was the easy one.
And the low hand fruit was backpack already has a messaging service within their, their
wallet and that, that shuts it down.
But I was like, that's there.
What can we do with this?
Who's using anything like this?
Because usually when you think like that, that becomes like, all right, this is what isn't
being done and we could use it.
It could be a lot of fun.
Like, even though I was joking, like, imagine if there was like some, and this is completely
crazy, but like, it gets to the point, somebody tries to do like a dating app service or something
And you are able to connect with people with the just messaging because they're part of
this app that you created, you know what I mean?
And, uh, it's like a private way where you can have a conversation and it's just on the
You know what, would that make sense?
I don't know if that's even possible, but it's like some kind of more personal.
It would be, you could probably develop like a chat based dating app with this protocol
because you basically dating apps.
You swipe right to approve, right?
Like if you were able to display yourself up there or whatever you wanted to display,
I'm just thinking outside the box.
It has, it has so many possible uses that you're right.
Where you're just like, can't even think of because we're not in the middle of developing
But if you are looking to offer something unique to your holders, like whether the,
the, whether your project is on a blockchain that's supported by this app or not, it's
an interesting thing to think about, to develop.
You may even be able to, um, you know, create some kind of like, I don't want to say rev share
because it's a really, it's a buzzword right now.
But, um, you know, some kind of return to your holders.
I don't think that there's a way to implement it personally.
I probably wouldn't just because I don't know, like it's Ethereum based and I'm more
on Solana, but I think that it's interesting to find out different ways to use the messaging.
Cause like somebody obviously thought there was a need for it.
They created a, uh, a customizable use for it, you know, like that, that's kind of big.
So it just makes me question it more.
Like what actually could you make?
It works on BNB, Ethereum, Polygon, a few other, a few layer twos on Ethereum.
But yeah, this is the thing I'm thinking though.
Like what would I ever contact somebody via a Solana address for one to donate or pay
something like if it was like a one-on-one artist to, to contact somebody that had an
asset in that wallet that I needed to like, yo, let me give you this offer.
And then the other thing is Solana has a similar thing from the Foxy, um, protocols
or whatever you want to call it, the Foxy suit.
Uh, but they have like the Foxy send.
It's something where you create this little NFT and you pay this really small transaction
fee to send them a message.
So like they have it, but you don't have to have an extra app.
So then it's on the chain.
You don't have to have an app for that.
That's where I'm like looking at it differently.
Like how do you, does that bring a presence of web two into this?
Like, all right, if it's an app where they can get into it, do they need, how easy can
you get them a wallet ID?
A private key and everything set up.
If you wanted to use this to onboard people into web three, I think we'll not use it
too, but have that ability because like, you want to make sure that you had that ability
to scale and like grow it at that.
You know what I'm saying?
I guess, um, it's the same thing.
Like you would have to have some kind of tutorial in the beginning to teach them how, but one of
the, one of the projects that we, um, had on last week, I was really impressed with
their information because right in their website, it was like how to make a wallet, how to do
And, uh, I can't remember which one it was, but, um, you know, that's how people will
learn to do that for now.
I mean, that's the best way that's how I learned.
And when I go to the results of like the best performing videos, it's usually the how
It's not as much as the niche, like, why is this so cool to you, Sean?
It's more like, what can you make me be able to do really easily?
Like, that's like the best stuff.
So, uh, like I try to sprinkle that in a mix of them, but, uh, it's definitely the, like
the thing that I try to pour into and everything we do.
And as a group is educating the community is the most important thing in my opinion all
Like making sure that, you know, this, this place is growing and learning something.
And if it's not like, well, then we're only going to stay right here.
The wheelhouse doesn't get any bigger at that, you know, and we need to keep stepping
But, uh, bringing something like that, the other use case, I'm so sorry.
Bringing up what you brought up, uh, it's something that I personally probably have no
interest before, but it makes me think and just kind of wonder, cause at some point
maybe that's what our community is going to want or need or have a use for it.
Or maybe we can figure out something to build at a hacker house for somebody else and create
some kind of sass like that.
Technically we don't need, but it's, it's something that we, we could create.
And it's just, I like thinking that way.
You guys know this right now.
Another, another use case I think of when thinking about, you know, developing something
with this app is being able to communicate with your community and signing ownership
to an address that they know is yours as the developer, you know?
So it eliminates the, um, I guess, instance of somebody like scam messaging your community
because they cannot message unless they sign as the wallet, you know, unless they use that
So as long as you, yeah, it's like another, I feel like it's a bulky way to get there
just because it's like a bunch more steps, like, cause there's other things that they
can use, but I agree with you.
Like solanomadesimple.sol is my address.
If anybody wants to send me anything that you can send it right there, you know, not that
I'm not saying like I want anything.
I got some alt coins for you.
No, no, don't send me anything.
I'm just saying it's like your, your point of like having an address like that.
Well, I like the SNS, sir.
I think that's what it's called.
Should be SMS be much cooler, but we'll have that discussion later.
Um, I like that they have that, uh, like that service up.
So I have somebody, I forget who it was.
They gifted it to me and they were like, please don't sell this like somebody for this, whatever.
I was like, I'm not going to, you gave it to me.
And I'll just leave it at that.
So, but, uh, I got that one and it's like, I like having those because I don't have to remember
all those other keys to now, like there's some things that don't accept them yet because
like they haven't integrated those like names.
But I think if I'm right with this, uh, like at some point the communication between wallets
and stuff like that is going to be that way.
The only thing that challenges that is like when I got drained, I had to switch all that
It's like, yeah, that will work.
But what happens when somebody, you know, gets scammed by something that like, or whatever.
Like what if they lose access to that wallet or used to it?
And like some of the names that people pay for are more expensive than others.
Like I personally wouldn't bet more than like 20 bucks on one of them because like, yeah,
at a principle, but, uh, you can transfer them really easy.
It took nothing to do it, but it was also the risk of loading up any small amount of soul,
which I was ninja in my way through that little while, like getting everything I could out
Like a little bit of here, like transfer.
Like I was wondering if the dude's sitting there watching me, I'm like digitally giving
Maybe you could have, if you use this protocol, I would have to wait for him to like download
Like, Hey bud, uh, download.
You can send pictures too with it.
I mean, there's a lot of things.
We're not even going to talk about why, but I think about, I've walked into group chats
recently where I was like, what the fuck is this shit?
I mean, hopefully they do release on Solana at some point.
I know it's kind of, um, Solana is one of the tougher chains to develop on if you're starting
But I would also see it being as like a companion, um, to something like Harry's discord bot,
you know, where we communicate.
The only thing about that is the, uh, the backpack while it has the messaging service literally
And it's like, it's almost one of those things.
Why create something that already works like perfectly?
Um, the backpack wallet, it's like all of your wallets in one, right?
You can load up like a wallet to it, but it's just like fandom.
It's like another, uh, like, um, what's it called?
I can't even think of the word right now.
Attachment or whatever in your browser.
And it just loads up where it has like your NFTs as your currency.
It has, uh, like a messaging chat through there.
Um, and then it has like the ability for, uh, programmable NFTs and things that come out
and there's, I don't know of any other than like stuff that you cannot do now because it
like doesn't allow it with this, with what the technology they built into it, like certain
things you can't put it on.
Um, but, uh, I mean, the point of that conversation is about the messaging is built in there.
Like if you have that, you could just literally just go do do do.
I think it's more about integrating it into like something else, you know, um, if you
create a social media platform, something like that.
I see what you're saying.
It has both Solana and Ethereum wallets and yeah, it has that, uh, messaging built in.
And it's, uh, it's just, yeah, it's, I think wallets might be trending towards cause it's
I saw someone tweet about this.
Uh, but like most wallets right now, like you open them up and it's like, boom, you're
hit with the USD value of your assets.
And it's like, dude, is that really what we want to, especially with all this securities
talk, is that really the kind of like mindset we want to encourage?
And like the first, um, thing we want people to see, like, it would be cool if like we opened
up our wallets and it was like our collection of like all of our collectibles and all the
communities we belong to.
And then yeah, our messaging system or like, you know, all of our messages that we're sending
the goal right here, like, am I not wrong in thinking this, that some way, somehow all
of this is going to trend to one thing.
We need one app that shows all your assets on every chain and you can communicate like
you can on Twitter with it.
Like it has all of that kind of like in one place and then it has its own chat rooms for
Like if you're part of this type of NFT, there's all of these underneath that umbrella.
And then this one, like it's going to be broken down.
Like, I don't know how many people remember AOL, but like, if you understand how AOL broke
itself down, it's like, if you broke NFTs down from, all right, you have NFTs and then
you have these groups of NFTs and then these groups of those types of NFTs and then like
a wallet name that, you know, you can integrate yourself into by buying or if they're token
gated or at least viewing and being part of them by playing or whatever the case is.
But one simple fucking thing that loads all of that up and like also has a place for
content creators and like these conversations and these live shows to happen, like that
needs to be all in one, one thing.
And once somebody does that, that's, I mean, that's where it goes, I think.
I didn't mean to jump in there, Harry, but that's kind of like, is there anything that
that kind of is like where like the backpack and wallet idea would go?
Cause then like your values it's on there, but your communication and the networking and
everything is like honed into one.
I mean, it's just a, uh, it calls for some thought because wallets are, uh, the interface
to all of this, uh, magical web three stuff.
And it's like, if that's like the interface, you know, do we want to emphasize the USD value
of the assets that you're holding or do we want to emphasize like all the stuff, cool stuff
that you can do on chain?
Um, and, uh, yeah, backpack also has, uh, usernames, which is a really cool, uh, feature too.
So like, it's just like Venmo or there I go talking about assets again.
It's just like, uh, like Twitter, like you have your usernames, right?
So like now, instead of sending assets or collectibles to X, Y, Z, ABC, you know, you're just sending,
you're just sending messages and collectibles and, you know, on chain data to Harry.
So that's like a cool, like little, um, like UX, uh, upgrade I think is, is due.
I think that's kind of trending, like a, an app that people can use where they, they don't
even mention NFTs and like, they get in there, they get this, you know what I mean?
They get one of these things and they're not going to say they got this.
You had your hand up anyway.
You don't want to bring me up.
No, I was just going to say that, uh, all it takes is for Elon to do a small integration
on the backend where you could go and just like paste your wallet address for each corresponding
Kind of like, uh, um, what was it?
The domain service back in the day.
Um, I have one, I forget what it's called.
I don't know if you guys have ever had one of those, but all it was.
No, I haven't, but it's just like, I have some of those.
It has just like a huge list of all the assets.
And then you just paste your corresponding wallet address in.
And I mean, he could probably do that relatively easy.
And then if you send something, then it could like automatically go to the appropriate address.
Like, I feel like that shouldn't be extremely hard to set up.
I think HeyWallet had something similar to all of that set up that interconnected like
Twitter, but like got shut down.
I have, I have very little on HeyWallet.
I've played with it, but it was only for SPL tokens.
I got a big head billion on HeyWallet somehow, and I don't even know how to get it off.
So I just, it sits there and never, never, ever land dying.
I sent your shrimp over, should be shrimping its way over to your wallet right now.
Good luck with anything that comes with it.
It is not financial advice to hold on to it or do anything with.
Go get part of the Discord if you're not already over there.
I have a good time with them.
But no, this has been a good conversation.
Got to, you know, talk with you guys about everything.
But if there's any other questions about any other projects, feel free to hit us in the DMs.
And we'll talk about them, see what we can get together.
I don't know if you guys had anything else you wanted to add.
DZ, if you had anything lined up.
I think we need to get DZ Daily Dose back up, whether you want to do it on Chillin'.
But, I mean, that might be a good time, too, because it just brings up some conversation topics.
Maybe we can work on that.
But for me, I finished another review on the heist, telling you guys a little bit about why I like playing the game, why I bought back into the project just to hold on to it.
I think it's going to go up in value for sure.
But I do think it's going to go up at some point.
And they got a really cool game.
I got about $5 so far from doing the missions by just, like, clicking and plugging.
The value of it's been pretty flat.
I mean, you can trade it between high nines and low twelves if you're looking for some scalps, if you're looking to trade it.
So take a look at the charts if you're into that kind of stuff.
Mainly, I think it's fun.
They got really, really good artwork.
I think that if they were more of a BFP project, they'd probably be doing even better.
I'm going to probably buy, like, three or four of them.
Just do the missions because if I can get some of these 10Xs and, like, that's basically what it is.
It's like a risk-based game where you send your assets out there, and there's not guaranteed you're always going to come back with stuff.
But you have multipliers.
You have things that could take it away, or you get sent to jail.
Or there's one with the Federal Reserve where you go to, you know, quote, unquote, rob that, and you have a chance of actually losing the NFT.
It's called getting wrecked, and you could actually have it burned.
But it's a very small chance, but it could happen.
Probably won't happen because I don't go there too often.
It's just, like, one of those things that I didn't think I was going to like, and then I started playing it.
I was like, man, then I sold the thing.
I made a little bit of profit, but I was like, I'm not having fun, like, playing the game anymore.
Like, that was fun just to, like, go in because there's different times and all that kind of stuff.
It's on the YouTube channel.
Going to be doing a little bit more with some streaming stuff coming up pretty soon.
Just trying to figure it out.
Every time I've tried to stream something, something's gone wrong with, like, the video or, like, the setup.
So it's been a lot of fun learning the whole process.
But it makes me laugh at myself half the time because I'm like, motherfucker, like, I didn't turn this on or, like, didn't turn the audio on for another thing.
But it's always a work in progress.
So what I'm saying is, guys, like, don't get too hard on yourselves.
Like, when I first started implementing some different changes, like, I was completely overwhelmed.
Now I'm just like, all right, this isn't enough.
And it should be, all right, relax.
But now I'm like, no, no, no, I can do this.
But that's just the kind of person I am.
It makes this stuff a lot more fun for all of you guys, I'm sure.
But with that being said, guys, I'm not going to take up any more of your Sunday.
We are going to get back together on Tuesday, 930 Eastern Standard Time.
Hit us up if you guys ever want to come back on here or if you have any projects you think I need to take a look at.
I'll be more than happy to talk with them, get some of the founders, even if it's a musician or an artist in the space.
I've been talking with some different people in that area as well, looking for a time to get a one-on-one only artist, like the bear marketers.
Like, they're crazy bubble-eyed things.
But I'd like to learn the whole story with a lot of these one-on-one artists because I think part of your bags and anybody that has that, like Lindsay's, that's part of the, like,
I can kind of create a one-on-one collection based off of that and continue up to 100 and, like, keep it at that.
You guys will have your own literal community within, you know, the whole Solana Made Simple within your bags NFT because there's only going to be 100 of those.
And they approached me and kind of mentioned it.
They were like, yo, what are you doing with it?
I was like, oh, it's just kind of like the precursor to the big collection.
They said you should definitely do the one-on-one thing.
You know, you've got a community right now.
So it got me kind of pumped.
I'm going to work on some of them tonight.
I got another project with Uftown Smokers that I'm going to be working on a banner.
I did a Mad Labs banner and that I actually changed mine because I really liked it.
And I was like, well, fuck it.
I'm going to go with that thing anyway.
So I'm rocking out with that.
But, I mean, that's pretty much all I've been up to.
Got some podcasts coming up this week.
We're going to be talking with Hello Moon and somebody with WalletGuard.
It's a security protocol or tool with your, you know, your wallets and stuff.
So we're going to be learning a little bit more about that and try to get some more people
involved in the security conversations from that industry.
I'm not the best with it.
But I don't want to be the person that everybody learns from because I could, you know, be
telling you something that makes absolutely no sense.
So I don't want to be that guy.
So we're definitely going to be digging in and doing our homework to make sure that we
are dotting our I's and crossing the T's with that because I think security is one
of the most important things that we get correct or correct in now.
We're going to kind of bring this kind of stuff out to you guys.
But other than that, thanks again for joining us today.
This has been Solana Made Simple.
