Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Звучит музыка. so ДИНАМИЧНАЯ МУЗЫКА This is the end of the day. so
Субтитры сделал DimaTorzok Music All right.
A little long time, no talk.
And I just wanted to say I appreciate everyone that came in here.
This will be the Skirpy public launch space.
As you guys know, a lot of you have participated in the invite-only launch for the past few months.
And, you know, that allowed us to really make the site a lot better and learn while we're working with you guys and fix the contracts and update the site and make it faster.
fix the contracts and update the site and make it faster.
So, you know, that was pretty priceless for us from a development standpoint,
where we were able to actually work with a lot of people at the same time and fix things and come up with new solutions.
And, you know, we've just became so much better as a company by just the past couple of months,
obviously running a marketplace and social media with thousands of people interacting with it.
So I wanted to just thank everyone in here for obviously participating. And it was really rough when we initially launched
invite only the site was slow. You had a save, then lock, then mint, you guys know, but yeah,
it's been a long process, but I'm very proud of where we are now. And if you guys go to
scurpy.com now, you'll be able to see the website's completely public.
So you'll be able to actually just post your links or go to scurpy.com and you'll be able to see the home feed.
You have to log in to see the home feed completely and access all features.
But you'll be able to see everything on the marketplace.
And, yeah, we hope this gives you guys a lot better experience, obviously, like sharing your work and talking about Skirpy.
And yeah, we're very proud of where we are today.
And I appreciate everyone in here that has been a success story or that has just started on Skirpy or that has been grinding on Skirpy.
You know, everyone has their own role and everyone, you know, works at a different pace.
So it's pretty cool to see an ecosystem, though, arrive from really nothing.
And the future is very bright for Skirpy too.
So if you guys are on Skirpy now, I promise you, you know, we aren't stopping anytime
We have some pretty cool stuff that we plan on announcing, um, hopefully in the next
week, something like that, new stuff, maybe new contracts.
Um, and then after that, who knows the, maybe the future of Skirpy's multi-chain.
You know, I always thought it was going to be multi-chain. I always thought that was best.
We want to get as many users as possible, as many collectors as possible, and be the hub across
all of the crypto blockchain. So I'm really excited about the future and just wanted to
start it off with that and thank everyone for even coming in here. Now, I need to figure out
how to pin. Can you still pin the spaces and it shows up
Because every time I keep doing that,
it's like a quote retweet, Villarica.
Can you still pin up the space and have everyone retweet it
or it doesn't quite look the same?
Or anyone, does anyone know?
I just pinned it up for you.
So it should be in the Jumbatron our space gmgm scripts
gm and yeah do you see okay wow see okay so you did it you're a genius but when i put text with
that it always looks messed up now so it used to allow me to put text and then it would show up to
space link does it not do that anymore i'm not really sure what it exactly you want to do
um but um what is there a specific post you want me to pin up yeah i want to do a fresh post like
retweet this you know we're going to give away 100 tezos all that but um i want to do that text
with the space but it's not letting me do it combined so i don't know via rica you host spaces
a lot so that's why i was asking her but But I think she's... Well, let me see.
I just pinned up your pinned post.
Is that what you want me to do?
No, but we got you working already, Anna.
Okay, guys. So if you're in the space
or if you don't know about scurpy you know i wanted to do a fresh one that's the thing that's
what's killing me here so you have to write a post yeah and then i go to the space copy link
but i put it in it looks like it's a oh yeah i guess it doesn't show it the way they used to
anymore i'm realizing oh whatever all right so i'm pinning this up now a new one I guess it doesn't show it the way they used to anymore. I'm realizing. Oh, whatever. All right. So I'm putting this up now. A new one.
We're giving away 100 Tezos after the Skirpy Public launch base.
I know it's not a million Tezos, guys.
I don't want that type of relationship with you guys where we just pay you guys money
because I don't have money like that.
All of my money goes toward developing products for you guys as the artists, for the collector.
So, you know, I never want to have
that type of relationship.
So whenever I give away money,
it's my own personal money.
And so, yeah, we're going to give away
100 Tezos after the space.
And obviously it would be awesome
and don't have a Skirpy account to sign up.
Or if you're in the space,
retweet that pinned tweet,
And I would love if we just pin up art
And yeah, let's get this space booming, Um, I want to make this obviously a successful launch
and I would love to talk to you guys about maybe new stuff and, uh, just updates about stuff. And,
uh, yeah, I love you guys. Thank you for so much for joining. I'm kind of speechless here.
I can't believe we've even gotten to this point. You know, it's been quite the grind, I will say.
Um, but yeah, I'm super proud of it. And Anna, you know, I know it's been quite the grind i will say um but yeah i'm super proud
of it and anna you know i know you were one of the people that were on at day one and i know you've
seen the improvements from the beginning we had no tagging you know it was slow every page took
forever and i'm amazed that people even used it when every page was super slow and we launched so
um you know it's crazy to see the progress i I mean, it truly is. I mean, here's to the gist of it, okay?
Look, I'm a huge believer is not what you say.
How you make others feel.
And I think it's incredibly important to highlight this feature.
Look, I know our personalities may not fit to everybody.
I don't want to please everybody.
But I do want to highlight one particular thing.
Anytime, way before you even launched, like I want to say at least a year or two ago when I got into the spaces when you were hosting and maybe you were co-hosting.
I don't remember. But to be honest with you, you always treated me or other people in that space with utmost respect, love and care.
Right. There was none of that fake BS. So to me, that speaks volumes.
So to me, that speaks volumes, right?
When you come in authentically representing who you are and how you treat others, that
Hence why it was incredibly important for me to go and support your vision.
Hence why I signed up right away.
Actually, the FaceTime and countless phone calls and all of that because
you know technically i'm not that savvy as you are sir but hey listen um i think uh you definitely
did the right thing by launching your own platform giving a a bit of a competition a bit of a
competition to object because look, object is probably
what the only platform that used Tezos.
And I mean, like I was wondering for the longest time, why is it, let's say ETH or Solana has
so many platforms, but not Tezos?
Like it would baffle my brain.
I always love when I have, what's the word?
Variety, right? So if it's not this, I can always go there.
And you know, it tends to be an amazing thing that you did. And I'm very happy to be part of Scarpy, to be honest with you. I do love how the platform operates. Yes, there were minor glitches
in the beginning, but hey, listen, Rome was not
billed overnight. So that's the way I'm looking at it. And hence why I never critiqued. I never,
you know, expected way too much from you in the beginning. So I think what you're doing and what
you achieved thus far is pretty incredible. And it deserves a round of applause to you for sticking around for
believing in your vision for making things happen for all of us because look at the end of the day
we're the artists right we're the visionaries we are creators you are the the brain behind the
operations and here we are only using the vehicle of scurpy to showcase our work and passion for what we love doing.
And, hey, connect with other people as well.
So I think also it's incredibly important to highlight that because of Scurpy, I was able to connect with other friends that I was not connected with before.
was not connected with before. So yes, I love that. So, um, I mean, I have nothing but gratitude
to say to you and others, uh, my friends who are here in the space, shout out to you all.
Um, it is Friday. I love TGIF. I mean, my day started really well, but Hey, listen, um, I know
I've been on delay on minting new art, but that's simply because it's me.
I'm taking my sweet time.
And I think I always believe when there's a will, there's a way.
Like when there's a time for it, I will be ready for it.
Believe me, I have plenty of stuff whenever that's going to happen.
But, you know, it also makes me very happy that people are engaging in the platform.
They're constantly minting new stuff.
And it's also very important to highlight that the way Scurpy highlights art,
first of all, it's a beautiful way, the way it looks, okay?
Because I don't like to see art being minimalized, right, in a sense where,
like, there's so many details and art and colorful variations, and I'm not speaking for myself,
right? I'm talking about all of you guys that have been minting art and providing this beautiful
stuff on the Skirpy, which is amazing to view. So, the visibility of it looks amazing.
I love the gamification of, let's say, you know,
the reaching the points or whatnot, you know, like mining points.
I mean, it makes it very fun and makes me want to go back every single day.
And it's like this thing in the back of my brain, like, oh, yeah,
I have to go do that thing every 24 hours or whatnot.
that we have trending hashtags which guess what freaking x always punished us for using hashtag
like what kind of a bs is that this is social media this is how it's supposed to be so if I
want to search for stuff I want to be able to search it by hashtag, right? So that makes it very helpful as well. So yeah, you, I
think you've thought out everything. And yes, I love the latest and greatest update that you
added the tagging situation, which I know everybody loves. Yes, they do. Yes, I love being
tagged in gazillion posts, but hey, listen, it is what it is. It's part of the Web3 experience.
But listen, Skirps, I adore you.
I love the fact that we both come from Brooklyn.
Sorry, not sorry, but that's what's up.
And listen, what can I say?
I wish nothing but the best. And I want, I want everybody to know that I am here for the long haul and not going anywhere anytime soon.
I've been in the Web3 for the past four years.
And I love the variety of adding Tezos in Scurpy, using Tezos.
And of course, you know, I think, like you've said, you've mentioned that more chains will be coming.
So whenever that happens, yeah, let's go.
You know, I'm here for it.
So I'm definitely not in a rush.
So whenever that happens, it happens.
So I think you are definitely a good listener.
And it's also very important to acknowledge not a lot of platforms give us the voice.
Not a lot of platforms highlight artists.
They just don't care and you do care you are created that you've created this platform for artists and
Hands why I'm here for it. So yeah, shout out to you scurps and flowers to you as well
Thank you and shout out to the scurpy team because you know, they're incredible
I work everyone does goes above and really, what one person can do.
So I just want to shout everyone out.
And also, to touch on a couple of your things you said, yeah, unfortunately, on Tezos, there's no incentive to build stuff, Anna.
That's why you said there's no rival to objects.
There's no incentive program for anyone to build anything.
So there's really no point to build anything, right?
You've got to pay for it all yourself.
You know, it's not a great thing a great incentive is for artists to be seen.
No, but no one's going to spend a million dollars for that, right?
Like that's where it becomes too expensive.
So a lot of these other layer ones, like you said, with a lot of marketplaces and stuff
and different things to do, they have incentive programs, right?
So you come there and build an app and it's used this many times right well airdrop you our token
right there actually has to be an incentive to keep or to have people come
and build on your blockchain so that's the biggest problem with it that's why
you don't see other application it's literally just basically object and
scurpee on Tezos because there's that lacks incentives you know that's the
truth so yeah it's really important obviously I think if I was to create an
L1 and I was the CEO of it right right? Like I'd be like, hey, we got to incentivize builders here. We got to have people come here. We got to airdrop them tokens for building, right? Like that's what I would be really concentrating on, but it's not my business. And I'm just building the platform that everyone uses, right? So for us, it doesn't really matter which blockchain, as long as they're on Skirpy, they'll have an awesome experience where you have a profile you could post right there's been over 200 000 scurps and then you have you know ideally it'd
be multi-chain and you have multiple options where to mint and buy sell and our user base would be
huge like that so for me that's that's always the plan but yeah i think incentivizing the l1 would
be definitely something that i would think about if i were them. 100%. It's all about, I mean, like I said,
we're the artists, we're the visionaries, creators.
We just want to be seen and heard, you know?
And I think you are definitely giving us the platform
I do my best, Anna, and this was always kind of my vision
for what Skirpy would be.
It's kind of a place that you could post.
You know, the messaging is not perfect yet.
That's something we got to spend some time on.
But the fact that you could post, message, group chat, and then obviously buy, sell,
and it's all in one place.
I just hated going to 25 different places.
So I'm just super excited that it even works, that it's fast, that it's scalable, and the
experience is pretty awesome right now. So I'm super pumped about it. What's up, Villarica?
I think you might be rugged. I can't hear you. Can anyone hear her?
Oof. Yeah, Villarica, we cannot hear you.
I can see your mic opening, but I can't hear anything you say. It's just mute.
I'll leave and come back.
Papa Scurp, what's up, my brother?
Long time, no talk, brother.
Good to hear your voice, man.
I'm just doing a poker stream in the other room, playing some poker with some people.
But yeah, man, I had to come in and support and say what's up.
And yeah, good to hear from you, bro.
No, I'm just actually downloading the app and I'm getting all set up.
But I showed up, so that's all that matters.
Yes, sir. And you showed up to this. You did everything, everything keith you're the man so i just want to say thank you and keith i
know you have a scurpy account we haven't gotten you crazy active on there yet but i promise you
like there's a slew of a ton of different artists from everywhere um and i think you'd enjoy it man
and you i posted in the comments i'm going to collect on scurpy today so i'll be a
little more active but even if i'm a little late but i'll go on there i'll collect a couple pieces
i like for sure oh yeah that'd be dope bro they'd go crazy um we love when collectors come i think
that's something we do that's different than a lot of platforms is we kind of showcase obviously
hey this collector collected a ton this person got into nfts like this you know and you know if
you collect the ton keith i'd love to do a collector spotlight where we write about like
how you got into nfts you know maybe be like i was an mma fighter and one day i saw these digital
collectibles online and found out you know the next thing you know i started hosting spaces
i think it's important that we tell the story of the collector as well as obviously support
the artist all in one place.
Hey, hey, can you hear me?
Oh, yeah, loud and clear.
Guys, I just wanted to say that I don't have enough,
so much time to speak, to be in the speakers, because I'm on my mom's birthday,
but I couldn't miss this such a
big day so Scorpio I'm so proud of you and I'm congratulate you with this
public lounge I want to say that you know when we had this when they get this
early access on the platform and we actually didn't know what to expect, but it's all about you like
Anna said we know you about more than
two years and we know you as a person and we had such a
Huge believing in everything that you are doing. So we I want to say that me personally. I was
absolutely surprised by the, in a good way, surprised.
Like I knew that you will do something absolutely new, interesting, but the result that you give us to artists, to collectors was absolutely incredible.
artists to collectors was absolutely incredible and the support the level of support from everyone just
oh my god it was it it was absolutely mind-blowing and i think it will be even better i i i have no
doubts about this so we uh launched already a few projects on scorpypy and like contests, like, I don't know, collective projects.
So I'm so happy to be part of Scorpy.
I'm so happy that we have this Scorpy account and I wish only good luck, only prosperity
and everything that you put in your mind about scurpy platform will be
realized so yeah congratulations and thank you so much thank you via rica you're the sweetest and
via rica you've been helping it helping me out with this for quite literally years so i just
want to say people that have been like testing before we even
launched it and all the invite only people.
this has been a long time coming.
This has been multiple years.
you're a superstar on Scurpy and this has always been the dream that
people can become a star.
And obviously Scurpy will scale.
you'll see some of these artists that right now maybe aren't crushing it
on Scurpy two years from now.
Scurpy is going to hopefully obviously still be around and that artist will be on the homepage crushing it, Scurby. Two years from now, Scurby's gonna hopefully obviously still be around
and that artist will be on the homepage crushing it, right?
Like who knows what the future holds,
but I know people like you, Villarica,
that have been here for years on ETH, on Tezos,
on all these different blockchains,
grinding with incredible art.
You know, this was made for you, Villarica.
And I know it wasn't perfect.
And I know it's not perfect,
but this was all made for you, quite literally.
I'm sure you guys can experience it and see.
It's different than the other marketplaces. That was always the goal. I didn't
want to make something like the other marketplaces. It was all the same thing everywhere I went.
Why can't we post or comment on someone's thing? What the hell? It's not even an option anywhere.
Right. So that was kind of the idea of it. And Vierica, thank you so much.
I'm actually, I can't even, I'm in debt to you for, you know, for life.
You've helped me so much, Viorica. You're the best
Thank you so much. They will go to listeners. I will be with you but and I wish you a great space today and
everyone who don't know about
For now, we should to check out this absolutely amazing platform to make your account and go on Skirpy because it's worth it.
Thank you so much, and I will stay here with you.
Happy birthday for your mom, Viorika.
Thank you so much. Thank you.
Oh, I didn't even hear you say that. I heard the dogs barking.
So happy birthday to your mom, Viorika. Go enjoy your mom's birthday.
You do enough at Skirpy. You get the day off, Viorika, all right?
Yes, but I couldn't miss this space.
I'm here to say that I'm super proud to be a part of Skirpy platform,
to have my account there, to have my projects there, my artworks there,
and to get all the support from amazing
people I'm so so grateful to everyone because you know so so fast the selling
of the projects so fast I didn't get to any platform to be honest so thank you
really it's it's means a lot for artists because you know it's a kind of inspiration for everyone kind of motivation and
when you see this real impact between artists collectors platform all together it's it gives
a lot of inspiration and motivation thank you via rica and i think you'll like our next update we push in the next
in a week or so or two weeks whatever we do I think you're gonna have a lot of
fun with it and you're gonna crush it with it but it's nothing nothing's
official we're working on it right now but the collab contract right where you
guys can actually collaborate and draw pieces together I think that will be
super fun so everyone in this space start thinking about that start coming up with some ideas because you know we're working on that right now I think that will be super fun. So everyone in this space, start thinking about that.
Start coming up with some ideas because, you know, we're working on that right now.
I think that's going to elevate Scurpy to a new level because people like you, Villariga, have such an outreach and have your own communities that it could be really, really fun to obviously basically deploy your own smart contract and have your friends mint to it and, you know, break up the cut however you want.
I think that'll just create a whole new layer of Scurpee.
And then you have people commenting.
And it's just, we have so many cool stuff in the pipeline, Villarica,
that I don't really want to say everything because I feel like people try to copy it when I say stuff sometimes.
So I'm going to keep some stuff tight to my chest, the cards tight to my chest.
But that's something I will say because that exists elsewhere.
But yeah, collab contracts is something that's coming.
Dark mode is something we think about.
Obviously, you guys really want.
So those two things are something that I think, you know, after launch would be pretty good,
pretty good announcements that'll get people pretty pumped up about, you know, two announcements.
And then from there, we'll see.
But that's where the next two things I'm looking at.
And if you look at the explore section on Skirpy you'll see that the collections used to not load if
you click collections it was like super slow and not load we fixed that that's
an update that before the space we fix so now they load so you can look through
the collections there so it's just gonna constantly keep getting better and
obviously Vierica you have a ton of collections and have sold out
collections and stuff so we're just to keep giving you that same experience.
I know I'm very corporate today, guys.
I've been waiting for this space for a long time.
And I know the price of crypto hasn't been doing great the past week or so.
But none of that affects Skirpy, right?
Like it's a creator economy.
This is a completely different type of thing than the rest of crypto.
The rest of crypto are just chains, right?
They're basically blockchains that you buy you hold or you sell whereas skirpy is actually something
you interact with daily some of the stuff you're doing is not even on the blockchain right like
skirping so I think it's a nice mix of web 3 and web 2 stuff in one place and that's what makes
skirpy unique and there's been over 200,000 Scurps so far. So you guys are obviously Scurping. And yeah, this is just the beginning. It's just two months. We've done over 100,000
Tezos in volume, 103,000 or so Tezos, 104,000 around. And yeah, I'm pretty proud of that number.
That's basically all gone to artists. We take a a small cut um and yeah that's a big number for uh you know cold starting a marketplace with no vc no marketing this is all
organic grassroots um so yeah we're almost on track for if you do that it's almost 500 000
tezos or so in one year for artists right there if you're on scurpee so if you guys aren't on
scurpee i'd recommend getting on it and that's just saying you know if we don't scale or go to
other chains and stuff so you guys are all super early and i plan on incentivizing my users obviously
it's gamified so everything you collect create mine you know long term i would be excited if i
were you guys you guys are in the right place the right time you guys know we actually have real
technology this is not uh you know some fugazi stuff this This is real. You guys interact with it.
And it's just going to keep getting better.
So you guys are all the 120 most loyal people in all of crypto to me.
And I would do anything for you guys.
But he won't get a haircut.
Why do you think I need a haircut?
I'm just kidding. You have beautiful, luscious hair. I'm just jealous.
No, no, no. Actually, how did you know? Because I just recently invented that one.
Oh, so you're a fraud flexing the fake long hair now, I see, huh?
Oh, so you're a fraud, flexing the fake long hair now, I see, huh?
Yeah, I still have a long one, but you can actually call it middle length.
Not short, not long, just middle.
Well, what's up, Alex? How are you doing, my brother?
You're one of the top photographers on Scurpee so far.
I mean, what's your experience been as a photographer?
Because we don't really have many photographers.
I'd say a lot of this stuff is digital art,
Yeah, like I already just told once,
and I can repeat it more and more and more times,
Scurpee is absolutely amazing platform.
You started to promote it and open it in a great, great time.
Like, the market was empty and we needed something new to have this push.
And like, the Tezos is very, very weak with platforms.
They actually basically have object and that's it.
So having something different, it was absolutely amazing.
And how you was able to create the platform
and to invite everyone to to use it collectors and artists
to try it it's a mind-blowing experience so I'm glad I guess absolutely
glad to join and yeah it was a really well good timing. And like at the beginning, there are bugs.
And you cannot actually put something into production
But you always go for us here to be responsive,
able to fix everything in time very fast.
Nothing. very fast i don't know nothing yeah i i'm i didn't see anything like this before so
it was great experience thank you alex you know you only have one life so you kind of got to go
all out so you know what i was always like i'm gonna release this i don't care what people say
or think because i was teasing this for years and people always thought it wasn't gonna come
they never thought it was going to come.
No one believed it would come.
They thought it was going to be a scam.
I wasn't going to release it.
And we just kept developing, developing thousands and thousands of hours until it was ready.
And then finally, obviously, it's real.
And people like you are crushing it on it.
So I'm very proud of that, Alex.
And I wouldn't change a thing. Literally everything, delaying the launch, to launching it, to invite only, to public, everything is, I learn as I go.
And people are like, well, how do you, people in real life ask me, well, how do you know when to do this or that?
I go, I don't. I just kind of go and you just flow with it and you try to make the best decision you can for Skirpy and the people on the platform.
Everything's with you guys in mind, right? That's always, obviously, you guys are number one.
Even if someone says one bad thing about Skirpy,
I try my best for everyone to make it as fast
and as good of an experience as possible.
But sometimes people still say bad things about Skirpy.
So I'll even go out of my way to like message people
and try to fix the problem for them.
I probably shouldn't do that.
And we do go above and beyond.
And our team is very, very small.
So we punched up a bunch and
we're going to continue to punch up a bunch because i still see this whole crypto thing
is very ripe for the taking there's a lot of opportunity in the crypto space that we're not
even tapping into yet so i'll if you're going to be very happy you were on skirpy day one that's
my plan everyone else in here as well i will not. We will not forget about our first, uh, 3000 users and invite only. What's up, Monomel.
What's up? Congratulations. Oh my God.
This is like a party. Oh my God. Uh,
congratulations for the lunch party. Um, you know,
I've been away for two months. Um, not really active in this space and i got back
and i saw it i see i see it oh my god a launch party public lunch oh my god um you are so
outstanding kirpi um oh my god you are so impressive. I mean it, I mean it. Because, you know, this is more, it's neat like you. The marketplace and you have a plan to do something like connect
with another platform maybe, right?
In fact, you are multi-chain from the beginning.
I mean, we need that in Tesla.
I big applause for you, Scorpio, for what we're doing for you in the community.
And, you know, I do really, really hope that Scorporpy will grow more and more,
will win, you know, give win-win solution for everybody.
It's only in creator, not only in creator,
but collector, DeFi, or, you know, company in web tool,
like, you know, right now, available asset, right?
This is so much exciting.
You know, Lily has an upcoming event for Fear Process,
and I do have a plan to mint on Scorpy.
So, yeah, let's go on fire.
That would be awesome. We'd love you to do that, obviously, go on fire. Awesome.
We'd love you to do that, obviously.
Monomel, that would be awesome.
You're going to the, which event are you going to?
Okay, so this is like an annual event from Lily.
Yeah, Tesla has been set down right now, but Lily is still there.
And Fearful Tesla is like a ritual in Tesla.
So we got many, many creepy stuff in there, mean on friday 13 so i cannot be the jump run so
if anybody interested with uh this event let's go mint and scurpee
hell yeah that would be awesome monomel and i love that you use scurpee obviously it shows up
on the other marketplaces as well so i like that you use obviously our contract creation tool and Monomel, I've known you for a long time and you are so sweet. You auctioned off that pigeon,
I think your bird, you sold it. And, uh, you know, I'm so happy that you're having fun. And
obviously, uh, you know, maybe some people won't make a million Tezos, right? But you're going to
have fun. Like you said, socializing, posting and finding out about people, make a little group
chat Monomel with a couple of your friends. can group chat on scurpee like obviously we need to
like dive deeper into the messaging system on scurpee and really make it user-friendly and
make it awesome and we're going to do that when we have a little bit more time obviously now after
public launch but do that monomail you're going to have a lot of fun obviously while selling your
art group chat oh my god okay i just found out that I can create a group in there.
Obviously, you know, I've been doing like education in universities for web free stuff and
NFTs. Oh, definitely. I will make a group like, you know, many education people, right? Lecturer,
You know, many education people, right?
Lecturer, students, who wants to know more about Tessos, right?
We haven't had many people make group chats yet.
People don't even know that exists.
Obviously, they're not perfect.
Like, once you make it, you can't. I think it's not that easy to like uh i think add after that people so we need to
really dive deeper into group chats to make it really awesome like x i think x group chats are
pretty awesome um but we have another part of the site that we haven't unleashed that we spent a long
a lot of time on it was called communities but uh maybe we'll think about releasing that feature as
well but that was kind of a discord rival type of thing on scurpee i don't know if you remember that
max maya but um it was kind of cool i do scurpee i do it's it's still a cool idea and i would love
to to see it on scurpee because now you can put people into groups but it would be awesome if we have like a you know a public site a public page
for us yeah yeah yeah we don't don't just put that on much about it don't disclose too much
okay okay wait wait wait wait wait let me let me tell you first congratulations you're king of the
world you're king of the world you can just sit now on the throne and just relax and watch the spaceship you've built just rock into space.
This is where we are now. Congratulations, man.
No, it's not rocking into space yet.
Today was like, I would say the invite only mainnet was like turning on the rocket's engines.
And oh my God, they turned on, right?
Like that's what that feeling was kind of like.
Now it's like, all right, it's starting to go up now.
Finally, now after two months,
it's the rocket starting to go up.
But now the hard work starts now, right?
Like now everyone could see scurpy.com.
You can go to it right now and see Alicia's work
or Lisa Martin's work right there, right?
Or Max Maya's collection on the homepage, right?
This second, you can go to scurpy.com.
Previously, you had to go get an invite
and it was a pain in the ass.
So now you can actually just sign up, use the site out about artists buy right there right so i think this is going to help scale users get more users and uh ultimately make more sales
right because you're actually more visible now obviously anyone your friend on x that didn't
have a scurpee account can now see your thing buy your thing so i think that's going to be a huge
level up for artists and people on the site so So I hope you benefit, Max. I hope everyone benefits from that.
We're benefiting 100%. It's growing. I never thought that I would be in such like a dense,
cozy place, just like Scurpy, where you have all the people are amazing, are loving, like they pour
you with love. And the amount of art that is concentrated there,
that you see, that you get exposed to, is just an amazing experience. It's completely different
from X, completely different. I call it my new home, and this is what it's going to be, baby.
How's it functioning for you? Is it fast? Is it good now? Or is it much faster than
obviously when we launched
let's say as a person who uses it like 24 hours a day on on mobile and on pc i have two different experiences and i love um there has been some some like issues but i noticed that with each update
like all of these would go away remember there was like when you when you're scraping something
and then you tap enter on the on the pc then it would go like two lines empty but now you just like do it
it's smooth you can you can put the hashtags you can just like tap the name or what do you think
the name of the of your friend and it will just appear magically this is amazing it has been
amazing before that i used to open tabs when I wanted to tag five people
and then go and copy the username.
And remember, everyone, I told you, Scurpy is new.
Just take the easiest username you can have so you can get tagged very easily.
And then we still have some people with 0x number 35554.
X number three, five, five, five, four. No.
No, I, I, and we don't even sell usernames. Right.
But we don't like when people use their name squad either, to be honest.
So it's kind of a, you know, a fine line.
Like we don't want someone taking the name Tezos and sitting on it. Right.
Like that's no good either. So we'll,
we'll absolutely ban you and remove you if you steal a name.
No, please, please don't understand me wrong.
I'm talking about, like, our family group that just joined in the invite only.
This is where you have the whole freedom.
And this is where you have the whole freedom.
I've always been Timmy my whole life.
I was so worried that my name would go.
No, I just want to say that Scorpio is the most ready marketplace that, you know, connect with Web2 people. There is a social fight.
Anything, you know, will be in front in the marketplace.
And, you know, there is no more like this in Texas,
not a marketplace in Texas, right?
So, yeah, you are the most ready.
And I do appreciate and congratulations, man. Thank you. I think it. And I do appreciate it. And congratulations, man.
I think it's not even just Tezos.
It's across all the blockchains.
If you're an artist on Ethereum or if you're an artist on Avalanche,
if you're an artist on Base, you should be jealous that you're not on Skirpy.
Obviously, it's on Tezos right now, right?
So you should be very jealous because on Skirpy,
you have the ability to actually add your friends message group
chat post i think you have so many things you can't do elsewhere all in one place and obviously
super low fees and it just gets better all the time where the other marketplaces i feel like
they don't even tweet i look at the other marketplaces they haven't tweeted in three
weeks i'm like this is my competition i'm gonna eat their face off and give the artist the best
experience i possibly can they don't even care you know what i mean that's the truth that's how
i feel about it so yeah i'm just i think's passion. I think it's really just passion driven
I want to win more more than the other marketplaces probably want to win, right?
Cuz they're probably not gonna be doing this as much. What's up. How are you, sir?
Wait one second guys the electrician is here
I'm gonna go inside I'm going to go inside.
I was standing outside, ranting.
Hey, hello. I hope you can
hear me. Just let me know.
Okay, you can. Skirpy, it's been
such a long time. I mean, you were one of
the first people I met when I
joined the NFT space. I think it was
over three and a half years ago.
Even then, on those huge spaces that you hosted, you were speaking about Skirpy.
That first platform was so friendly and you were always the kind of person who had their emotions on your sleeve.
You would become happy, angry, all at the same time in those spaces, the same as you are now, but you're happy and unhappy.
Just want to come up and say congratulations.
I'm happy that you are the person in charge of this platform.
You know, after being here for so long, a lot of us are very skeptical about new platforms,
but because really you're one of the good people that has been here from the very beginning,
I'm very excited to be an artist on your platform.
I know you're going to do great things.
I know that you're community driven you are here for the artists you care you've proven that all these years a lot of the bad actors have left and you know it's more of a business place here
none of those hopes and dreams that we're going to make it anymore it's just like
a really really serious place to be as an artist and work and sell and
collect and you know make a name for yourself and I'm really really happy to be a part of that
Scurpee family I'm honored really so just want to come up say congratulations and I see a lot of my
friends are here and the majority of people who have joined Scurpee a lot of them are from a long
time ago so that also speaks for you that
we trust you and we love you and we know you. And that is very important that we believe in you and
the platform is going to, you know, just go to the moon. So congratulations. And I'll stay up a bit
and then I'll go down. I know a lot of people here want to congratulate you as well.
Thank you, Nana. And I appreciate it. Yes, i've been around a long time and obviously
sounds like you've been around a pretty long time so you know this is this is a long-term thing this
has not been like a month we're gonna pop this thing up get a bunch of people and sell it to
you know to coinbase or whatever like no this has been a multi this is my life my life isn't
my my life is personally tied to scurpee being successful. I don't own Bitcoin or Ethereum, you know, or a lot of Tezos or Solana, right?
So my plan is to make Skirpy as good as possible.
And, you know, that's why I think it's different than a lot of these other marketplace CEOs
I'm doing this in the best interest of the user.
I want you to have an awesome experience.
I want you to have your friends there.
I want you to be able to sell your art, keep the most of the money, you know, have an awesome experience. And that's hard to
make. And honestly, the cold start of just starting this in the beginning was the hardest thing
possible because we didn't know how it was going to go, right? Like it's hard to get people to come
and you have to pay money to create a collection on Skirpy, which by the way, I know it sounds
it's annoying. You got to pay three Tezos or whatever it is, but that helps keep Scurpy sustainable because we've optimized our contracts now where we used to just go to gas
and storage. But now since we optimize our contracts, we can make a little money every
time a collection is made, which helps being sustainable. And, um, you know, so I think that's,
that's also important that we find ways to keep the fees the same exact they were,
but we optimize solutions so that we can be more sustainable and we can last longer as long as possible. Because I don't want to be here for a
month. I want Skirpy to be here for 50 years in the NFT and crypto space. So it's kind of hard
to cold start scale, right? Because you have to deal with different things. People attacking the
site, people writing racist stuff, posting bad stuff. People can't let everyone have fun and
So I think that's made us enhance our security.
We got so much better about a lot of different things.
So it's been awesome, this whole experience,
from launching a real product and from being a Twitter space host
to launching this or developing this for many years with my team
and then obviously launching it
and having a somewhat successful launch so far.
So, you know, it's kind of a cool experience. And I hope it gives people some inspiration where
like, yeah, you can be a Twitter space host, grind, grind, grind, grind, grind, and then launch
something. It's totally possible. And that's the way I'd recommend to do it. I wouldn't recommend
like a flash launch. I think you build your name, you build your brand over a longer period of time.
So people, like you said, trust you, believe in you, know you. And that's super important, Nina. So you touched on a lot of awesome stuff.
Yeah, I just want to say, Skirpy, for people who are here and haven't joined,
do not be scared or anything. They have a wonderful help channel on Telegram and 24 hours.
I had problems like different hours of day and night, not big ones. You know, I didn't know the platform very well.
And I had questions about the contract.
And they will get back to you very quickly.
And they will put time and they will be very polite.
And, you know, nobody's bored with you.
They're there to help you.
So Onboard is a beautiful platform.
Like visually, it's very, very nice to look at.
And the works are seen beautifully it's very very
easy just have to you know at the beginning put some time read about the contract so you won't
get lost but overall it's a very very lovely friendly artist-friendly platform so this said
i'll say goodbye and i'll go down in a little bit well thank you nita and yeah when you create those
smart contracts you you're in full ownership of them. So I hope you as an artist also appreciate that. On Skirpy, when you create those collections, you fully own your art. You are not on a storefront contract, which is a shared collection, which you don't have ownership completely of. This is a complete ownership contract where you will be able to actually bring your art with you anywhere you want. It's a FA2 token. So it's the same standard that will show up on other marketplaces that allow it to.
So I think it's really important that you guys have complete control of your art.
You might say, screw Skirpy.
And you can still post your art elsewhere, right?
So obviously we prefer you sell your work on Skirpy.
That's how we pay for development.
That's obviously how we stay sustainable.
It's really obviously helps us a ton.
But if you don't, you have that, you're in complete control of your art
to do whatever you want with it.
So we do give you that flexibility.
I want to go down, listeners.
So, you know, I want to give in spot for another two up in here.
But I want to shout out to Olga. She is
my Genesis collector in Skirpy.
Thank you so much, Skirpy.
I will go down the listener so
everybody can, you know, reach you
Thank you, Monomel. Thank you, Monomel.
What's up, Mr. Wesley, a.k.a. Bruce Wayne of NFTs?
I'm doing all right. I'm doing all right i'm doing all right just lurking over here pretty also guys if you look at log out of your scurpy.com account and you'll see what it looks like what it
looks like for the person that's not on scurpy you could log right back in after but yeah log in

She wanted me to tell you. I keep trying
to bring her up, Maria. It doesn't work.
Okay, let's see. Hell yeah, you got
Keith on the stage. I haven't seen Keith in forever.
It's like we're in different worlds nowadays.
You're number one on the leaderboard you're the greatest user on the
platform so far you have been nothing but exceptional you're a stand-up person it's been
an absolute you know honor to have you on the platform man and i think a lot of people appreciate
you buy from them support them you know you've dropped a couple editions and stuff uh it's been
pretty fun to have you on the platform man you're You're the best user someone can ask for, man.
Couldn't ask for a nicer person.
Platform's a ton of fun, man.
And by the way, I don't support artists.
You've got to remember that.
But you have some amazing artists on the platform.
I think you have a good start right now.
And I can't wait to see you grow, bro.
I love the artists on the platform.
Sometimes I cannot believe how many talented people we have on the platform in such a short
It is stacked with talent.
So I'm sorry if you guys haven't been in Art Spotlight or Underrated Gems, but I will
do my best to try to get everyone in there.
And everyone shows up basically on the site now with the last couple of updates with the
If you scroll down, you'll see we randomly switch the categories every couple minutes.
So and recently in those categories.
And you'll see it keeps getting better, the marketplace.
It'll keep getting better.
But right now we're working on the collab contracts so that hopefully, Mr. Wesley, they will work for you shortly soon.
He thinks I'm kidding. Ha ha. haha yeah something like that we'll see we might be the 11th we'll see we're working hard
seriously uh if literally the next week or so it'd be amazing yeah yeah no we're working on
it right now we're uh we know that we're in the trenches we want to have a collab contract at nft
nyc i want to be in new york city and you know people there know scurpy and they're in the trenches. We want to have a collab contract at NFT NYC. I want to be in New York City and, you know, people there know Skirpy and they're using the platform and creating,
you know, collabs with it there. And that'd be super fun, super cool. So we want to do that.
Like we're grinding towards that, but yeah, we're in the process of it and we're pretty confident.
We write pretty awesome smart contracts, so we should be able to do it.
Amazing brother. Amazing. And i think that'll just open
up so much more fun like you can literally just have a space like collab with me any any artist
come through and just literally like just have 200 people in a day like collab with you and just i
don't know be creative with it but i think it could be really fun and any other and chas you
helped me out with some of the ideas behind it so i appreciate
obviously you as someone that's done collabs before uh obviously uh answer some answer some
questions yeah i mean it's a big part too i like being a part of the development i have years and
years and years of experience in that field building products and developing and everything
else so uh i actually like being on that side to be able to help you with that.
So anytime, man, you know, you know, you can reach out.
Get your ass up here, Maria.
I just wanted to come up on stage.
It's been already like three times.
I just want to say how much I'm happy for public lounge.
And my huge congratulations to your team who is working hard.
And thank you for doing this and for keeping in touch with artists,
which is very important, and for the space and for the platform, of course.
But your support is incredible. I think this is the strongest side of your platform that we can reach you out any moment and we can get help any moment.
This is really incredible.
And we tried some other stuff, Maria, with a Telegram bot that answered questions and stuff for problems.
Maria with a Telegram bot that answered questions and stuff for problems.
But honestly, the site just gets better so rapidly that some of the old infrastructure
gets kind of aged out and we completely replace it.
So it kind of becomes useless, the Telegram bot responses, because we don't have those.
Like, there's no saving, locking, minting anymore, right?
Like, now you could just do it all in one.
So, you know, stuff like that, Maria.
I hope you as a creator, your flow gets easier and better and faster. That's something that's important. I don't know if you've stuff like that Maria. I hope you as a creator your flow gets easier and better and faster
That's something that's important. I don't know if you've minted much recently
I don't think you've been mentioning as quite as much, but I don't know if you've seen it's just one one step now
I saw you sold something for a hundred tens of the other day. I'm like Maria can't even keep anything
to my collectors for this
I really appreciate this so much
incredible on your platform
that every artist can get
on other platforms it's kind of
because many collectors can't even see your
platform you just spotlight every artist this is really very valuable get there because just many collectors can't even see your artworks but on your on your platform
you just spotlight every artist this really very valuable
that's always been kind of the vision i always went to twitter and would see these different
faces but everyone was everywhere and i thought it'd be pretty cool if i could just see everyone
in one place um so maria obviously you've been the. You're one of the best creators on the whole platform.
You've been there since day one.
You've grinded through invite only,
through its flow, through the multiple steps.
So I hope you're happy with where it is now.
I hope it's faster for you guys too.
Like you don't understand like how much that means to us that,
like I know it doesn't seem like that,
But our whole life is that.
but our whole life is that.
So I hope it's faster for you.
That's really what we want, a good user experience.
It's absolutely an amazing experience.
And yes, I'm missing my artworks.
I just try to go more with open edition because it can stay longer.
And also, I will make another open edition, of course, since we are on public launch.
But I really try to keep it long, like one month open edition for people who will come with public launch can collect as well.
And of course, more one of one artworks are coming, which are also physical, and I'm sensing them away.
And with your platform, I just chose that way.
I just wanted, you know, I wanted something different
from everything what I was doing before.
I want to go exactly with physical,
because I want to make on Scorpio something
what I can give to people.
Something, how to say it, something what you can touch, like physical.
What she's saying, Skirpy, is that all of her physical artworks, that's all she's putting on Skirpy.
And people can get the actual physical pieces which i think it's an amazing
utility so i think it's super super awesome that she does it is completely unique that's why she
keeps selling out her things because it's completely unique from a lot of different
collections she sells the piece with the physical that's why maria you've been such an animal out
there you've been crushing it you sold that piece for for 2,000 Tezos. You have the, I think, the largest sale in Skirpy history, I think.
Shout out to the Russian speakers.
Shout out to the Russians.
Jackie, Villarica, Cosmonica, Nika.
I can't rename everyone off the top of my head.
Shout out to HODL, a lot of the collectors.
Let me go through the marketplace real quick.
There's also been, let me see how many transactions here in total.
I think it's total transactions process.
I think it's total transactions process.
I think it's been 15,000 sales around the past two months.
So very proud of that number.
Obviously, that's pretty awesome.
I can't believe it's been 15,000 sales in two months.
The future multi-chain potentially and all these other things.
Like there's going to be millions of sales on Skirpy.
So you guys are all so early um but i want to give a shout out to
picky chas wesley sam gad plant face ash mahesh mahesh has also been incredible i don't even
know if mahesh is here but mahesh has been such a such a legend collecting and supporting so many
different people and he's so talented as a photographer shout out to cry baby shout out
to crypt gem crypt gem's been with me for a super long time waiting for scurpee and photographer shout out to cry baby shout out to crypt gem crypt gem's been with me for
a super long time waiting for scurpy and just shout out to crypt gem he's absolute legend he
was a known origin top 15 collector but they went under even with 15 percent fees whoo 15 percent
fees i'd be rich they went under with 15 percent fees. So just to tell, just to show you guys,
like it's very hard to run an NFT marketplace. Like, especially if you're not open C getting a
10 million volume in a day. Right. So it's, uh, it's kind of, it's very hard to cold start,
but you know, if we can keep the foot on the, on the pedal and everyone could keep posting about
Scurpy selling your art on Scurpy, buying art on Scurpee. Scurpee will scale to an OpenSea type of level.
And it could be so much, I think it could be even so much more
with the social media attached and other things to do in the future,
potentially on Scurpee, other products on Scurpee, right?
You see Scurpee AI, you see obviously maybe prediction markets,
you see a ton of different potential things that we can do
that are just super unique all in one place,
that I'm just super unique all in one place um you know that
i'm just super pumped about the future but uh also mr bane i want to give a shout out to shout out to
the aussies right there you got hedo shout out to hedo he's been a legend as well uh with the
retro toyland pfps i see him everywhere now i love love that. We got JT.
I don't know if you're here, but shout out to JT.
I don't even know if Brastian's here or even knows about this,
but Brastian just lurks on Skirpy, collects stuff.
Shout out to Lord Pirate. Lord Pirate's the man. Shout out to
Phoenix Crypto. Phoenix Crypto, the 14th ranked collector on Skirpy. Phoenix Crypto's got maybe
the biggest heart in the whole entire world. I've met her in real life at NFT NYC and she is so
nice. She will make you melt. She is so nice. You are like, I am. It is being like in the presence of a saint.
She's such a sweet person.
It's kind of tough for me to even be around because she's so sweet and nice.
It's actually maybe the nicest person I've ever met.
And then shout out to Hoddle at 15th.
Hoddle picks up a ton of stuff.
You see him lurking in the audience.
If you want to come up here, Trey, feel free to request up. Sure sure a ton of artists would love to hear from you uh you're always on scurpee
lurking in the weeds what's up chaz what is your deal with with lurking you got a thing with
lurking but i want to correct one thing you said uh he though was not the one uh the the toy van
that's actually stoner gabe or father gabriel right now actually no no i know it's his
thing he's rocking his pfp on scurpee as a uh i got you i got you i was shouting out the retro toy
land which is dope isn't it did you see did you come to my wedding you didn't come to my wedding
did you yes i did i came and then my friend came from behind me and scared me. Do you remember that?
No, I don't remember about your friend who's... Oh, my God.
I was like, hey, I couldn't miss this.
You know, he's a PFP collection on Skirpy.
You guys are all doing a wedding.
What the hell did I miss?
I'm like, I saw it on my feed.
So then I came and I started to say this and then my friend was coming over i was outside and my friend snuck up on me while i was saying that and scared the
shit out of me so badly because i was talking like you know busy but scared me to death and uh i
don't know you guys obviously can't see me but that's what happened i do remember
now but then you ditched us but it's okay my friend was there and then just like laughing
so badly that he scared me so it was i had to go yeah scurpee let's pimp up this space a little bit
i want to ask everyone on the stage and in the listeners to go to the pinned tweet now we're
giving away 100 tezos and post your art there for it to be displayed
And also look at the ones that I've pinned before.
These are incredible arts that are coming right fresh from Skirpy now.
let me see, Max, let's get pinning. I need let me see.
So if you're an artist in the space, guys, drop your art below.
And we're going to just pin up everyone's art that has replied to the tweets.
And if you collect anything, let's pin it up.
I think that'd be kind of a fun little thing to do.
Should we play like music?
What do we do for like 10 minutes and just have an art spree? I'm just kidding. But I think that'd be kind of a fun little thing to do should we play like music or what do we do like for like 10 minutes and just have a art spree i'm just kidding but i think that'd be kind of fun what's

if you have any questions about it. I'd be
Love it. I can't wait for more of these.
More PFD projects on Skirpy.
I'm going to give you guys, I hope,
a better and awesome experience.
At least you're the best.
You guys are making me smile right now,
Well, we're making collab contracts right now, so when we do that uh we'll see we got
to just we got to just finish this and then we'll we'll see what's next i want to do dark mode after
that i want to have dark mode here i think that's my next question one dark mode i want to see how
long it takes for him to kick me out of co co-host spot. No, not that long.
No, it won't be that long, I think.
I think that we just need to do collab contracts first.
Everything's coming, guys. We develop at a very fast pace, the best we can do.
We're humans, believe it or not.
Everything will get done.
Everything we want to do, we'll do eventually.
We've proven that we can really just build anything we want.
Listen, man, I'm going to tell you this, again, coming from this profession.
Building Web3 is not always the easiest, too. It's not like
most other coding environments where there's
so much information about it. A lot of stuff is very cryptic. You have to do a lot of research,
a lot of reverse engineering to try to figure out what these guys are doing, the blockchains are doing.
And also, when you're not getting as much love as you may want from certain parts of the environment, it's very difficult.
I got to say in the two months, Timmy, that you guys have done an incredible job of tying up so many of the, first of all, none of your
bugs are really that big, but getting the bugs out of the system.
And then, yeah, of course, there's small things, but like you focus on that marketplace so
well, the marketplace is running smooth.
There's not much on there that I can ever complain about.
I don't think there's anything I can really complain about.
I know next, after you get through a couple more things, you'll start working on the messaging and start working on notifications.
And I can see literally, you know, six months from going to the public beta, this platform being
rock solid. And I've got to be honest with you, that's super impressive to pull off with the size
of the team you have. I don't think people realize it. And doing it from your own pocket.
And you're correct. I mean, look at what places like Known Origin. I don't even know how long some of these
other marketplaces are going to last with just the way the market is. You are killing it, man.
I really think you've built a great ecosystem. So I do sincerely applaud you. I'm very, very
impressed with what you pulled off. And you guys have been a ton of fun to work with.
Yeah, we are a very small team.
It's important we punch up.
I don't want to be heavy.
If you're too heavy with expenses, then there's no point to run it.
You have to do it as efficiently as possible.
And I think because I've paid for it all myself, it, it allowed us to have to develop like, it's kind of like the
DeepSeek model, right? Like where the U S companies with AI, they spend a zillion dollars
and on these GPUs, which are like the NVIDIA GPUs that train the AI. So DeepSeek, which is a Chinese company,
had to find a way to train models efficiently
You know, because of, obviously, expense limitations,
we had to innovate and make our thing as scalable
and as efficient as possible.
So I think because we're not...
If I had $10 million, you'd probably burn...
I'd definitely burn way more money and be way less efficient, right? That's my point.
Because everything's coming out of my pocket, we run this thing so lean, so efficiently that
we're very proud of it. And yeah, obviously we're not profitable right now, but we're doing our best
to break even. And then obviously if we launch another change or if we strike a deal, whatever,
then yeah, Skirpy becomes profitable.
And then from there, we can add more developers, right?
We can add more team members.
I can't wait for that future of Skirpy.
And yeah, it's really hard to do without a VC backing.
But this is why I think Skirpy is the way it is.
This is why it's successful.
It's because I'm not being told by someone that knows nothing about NFTs, about how it should be built or what should be done, right?
Like they know nothing about it. So I the this is the way it should be done the people that are actually in it can
have a say right you you do spaces every night about nfts like yeah you should have a say max
maya grinds his face off 24 7 yeah he should have a say you know like i think this is the fairest
probably best way to do it
nah i love it man i love it you guys doing great what's up lisa let's see the mic open
hello hello i'm in barcelona in a hotel um lobby because the wife is so bad in my room
um i wanted to say hello because uh yeah i'm on my holidays but i thought uh it's really sad if i can't come to the
space but the time is very very good it's a european time that's always good for me because
i'm from europe and i just wanted to say thank you for this wonderful uh place you you made um
i'm so happy about it i haven't done this week much on scurpee but i'm
coming back on on the weekend and i'm going to collect a few pieces again and maybe even put
a new piece out i've already had an idea what to do so i'm really loving it. And it's just to see somebody doing their best
and doing so much for the community.
I mean, it's so heartwarming because usually, I mean,
I don't want to say anything against X,
but it's just about place and certainly work too.
But you're doing it from the grassroots,
it's just a different feeling.
Also, when you have a problem, you know,
I mean, sometimes I'm feeling that
maybe my account got stolen or something like this
and you don't have to worry too much
because I know I can DM you and you will help me you know that's it's
such a different feeling and i'm so so so happy that a person like you comes into my world and
does something like i always try to you know where a really good place to be so thank you very much
and thank you ches for collecting so many pieces and MXM2, Alexander, Celestial Boy, Maria,
and all so many lovely NFT kids and so many lovely people in here.
And you're so sweet and you're always on, Scurpy.
I see how much art you've been selling.
I see how active you are.
And you're in Barcelona in the lobby.
I know it's late, you guys, in the European time.
You probably want to go to the bar, hang out with your friends,
or hang out with your family.
But I appreciate everyone for even, obviously, you went to the lobby to the bar hang out with your friends or hang out with your family um but i appreciate everyone for even obviously you went to the lobby to talk and hang out with us so lisa you're the best and i appreciate it my boyfriend is waiting in the room upstairs but i i
told him i can't go come up because i will lose connection and then i'm out so I'm very happy to be here.
Tell them wait. Tell them wait.
That's awesome. Oh, that's cool. Why are you in Barcelona?
Just holidays. Just relaxing in holidays. It's a wonderful place.
You know, in Switzerland, where I'm coming from, it's raining a lot.
In Barcelona, the sun is shining all the time.
I mean, that's heaven for me.
It's a very progressive city, very open-minded city.
I mean, yeah, it's a wonderful place.
I could move here easily. Yeah.
That's a little bit different.
Germans don't understand us,
but we understand the Germans.
So that's the difference.
Switzerland is a very, very small country.
when they take vacation, they call it
holiday, just so you know.
She's on holiday right now.
They take real holidays too,my they take they don't take
like a week they take like months i know i know but usually it's like a minimum of two weeks unless
they don't call it a holiday i mean i mean we have four four weeks holiday it's mandatory your
your uh employer has to give you to those four. When you're older, you get five weeks.
I mean, we can't complain.
We really can't complain.
I always say I'm on holiday now.
We're teens away on holiday
whenever I'm from people in Europe now.
Even in America, I say it to people now.
I'm on holiday for a few days.
Lisa, you're on vacation.
Well, enjoy your vacation, obviously.
Thank you for coming in, Lisa, and being so active and being such a strong supporter.
Tell your boyfriend I'm sorry.
Skirpy personally said I'm sorry.
Yeah, I'm going to tell him.
He's watching his videos on TikTok.
He's just addicted swiping right now in the room.
Yeah, he's addicted, yeah.
And I'm addicted to Skirpy.
Yeah, oh man. I mean mean there's a lot we could do
too it's gonna be you might get him right
if we ever did like stories or
short videos like that we might be able
to get him on it but maybe not he might be
he likes sports he likes music
videos where you just can laugh
and food food videos he loves food
videos he's a good cook i can't complain yeah so he's actually learning how to cook something
nicer for me oh hell yeah sounds like you got a good deal lisa you get to just use right now? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
thank you very much again.
you know what I have to say?
Every platform, you don't really see the pictures, I think.
When you go on Scurpy, you don't even have to put the link in.
You just click the icon and you're already on the place of the artist
and you see the pictures and the the mint the pictures very very quickly so it's it's such a neat place it's not
complicated and it's neat and you see things that's very important for the
artists that we could see him quickly yeah so it's good
thank you lisa it means the world
holding my holding my heart right now lisa good good you're working very hard you deserve it
yeah what feature would you like to be added lisa um what picture would I like? If any.
Better group chats? We have group chats,
I wasn't invited into a group
Add Lisa to your group chat if you got a group chat.
How is that possible, Lisa? I love group chat. Add Lisa to your group chat if you got a group chat. Yeah.
How is that possible, Lisa?
It went so easy on X, but on Skirpy, I wasn't invited.
Maybe people don't like me.
The group chats are not perfected yet.
We haven't spent much time on that.
I'll add you to a group chat.
Who wants to be in my group chat?
Reply to my pin tweet above.
Skirpy is now open to everyone.
And I'll add a couple people to a group chat.
I want to hang out with Lisa.
You wore my heart. Lisa, I want to bring your theory into reality.
I wish you much fun in Barcelona.
Thank you. I don't see who is speaking.
He's playing poker right now.
He's here. He's playing poker.
Hi, Arjana. How are you, dear? Hi. I'm good. I will be really quick, but, Scurpy,
I wanted to congratulate you on the public
And I wanted to give you flowers because I'm new in the space
and just doing my Genesis, Tezos drop.
And I kind of DM'd you a couple of months ago and I said,
hey, how do I get a code and who do I need to ask?
And you were like, you know what, I don't do this usually, but I'm going to send you one.
And it just touched my heart.
You know, I'm from a traditional art world.
For the 10 years I've been a solo artist and I've seen how hard it is with galleries.
And, you know, it's not easy for artists to talk to someone directly and you were
just so amazing and then listening to the space here I can see how artists support each other how
they're there for each other I'm I've been really lucky to have found OneNow ArtDAO, and I know Chaz is one of the founders,
and I have made new friends like Hito,
and Maria was a visible violet with me.
I'm hoping to drop some of my art today or tomorrow.
Please keep an eye for it,
and I wish you nothing but the best,
and I hope to see you at NFT NYC.
I will be there, Archane.
We will get a picture, Archane.
I will hang out for a while.
And good luck to all the artists.
I'm so happy to meet you and hoping to be super, you know, busy creating and collecting on Scurpee.
And a PMYC soon too, Arcade.
Yeah, we're a little more than two weeks away, Archana,
and I cannot wait to meet you in person.
Your story is incredible.
You're just a super sweet human, and I can't wait to meet you.
And we're going to have an amazing time.
We have so much going on that week and look forward to spending a lot of the time with you thank you so
much Anzia one love art though means so much to me and I know to many many artists and uh scurpy as
a marketplace I mean as you know having the experience with x on instagram or all the social
places I think if artists need one thing is where there are genuine connections
and people who are actually real people
behind all those numbers.
And I think Skirpy does just that.
So truly, truly grateful for this platform.
I think I was going to say Zakalata,
but Arcana, I just want to respond to you
I can't wait to see you in a couple weeks.
Is it really two weeks away, Chad?
Two weeks and a couple days, yeah.
I'm feeling the pressure right now,
Where are you coming from,
Six hours? What is that? Five hours?
Six hours? Yeah, the direct
one is about five, and then
return is a connection, so it'll be
about six, seven hours together yeah
yeah so you got heart you're coming you got a lot of heart yeah i'm excited this is my first
nft nyc and i've tried the nft space like five years ago it didn't have enough courage to
go through with the things you know the bots attacking and the emails and things like that.
And I kind of continued on the traditional path, you know, going to exhibits, showcasing and going to galleries and with 50% cuts and travel expenses and everything else.
And everything else, I mean, it's just, I'm not sure how artists can actually make a living with the current situation of the traditional art world.
So I think something like Skirpy, something like Tezos, I've just minted a few pieces, you know, for the last couple of days.
And it's, you can afford it.
It's really very minimal, takes minimal time to mint, minimal amount of money to mint.
But then all my hope with this is to kind of share my art with as many people as possible,
and in doing so also collect great art that I love.
Thank you for saying it so well.
And it's a hint, you know, from I was born in India,
but I've lived in the U.S. for about 20 years and in Germany for five.
So I'm not a young person by any means.
I love that we have people from everywhere, of all, every country, every age group.
You never know what you're going to get.
It really is just completely random at Skirpy.
And we have so many women.
In Web3, it's obviously super male heavy.
And I'm very proud of that.
It is really just primarily women. And I'm very proud of that. Like it is really just primarily woman.
And we have a ton of men as well.
So I think we have a great ratio of tons of great people.
great experience for a lot of people.
It's people from everywhere.
It doesn't matter what country,
no one cares about any of that.
At least we haven't had any problems with any of that yet.
So, Timmy, you ready for your
morning cup of Zaka Latte?
So, Timmy, I would like to congratulate you
with the public launch of your platform, Skirpy.
It's a really big event, I think.
And, of course, with your platform, I associated a lot of great things for me, like a victory in the contest.
And today, Chas said to me that work, what I meant on Scorpio,
will be shown on a billboard in Manhattan.
It's a huge event for me.
So I'm really happy about it.
So your platform is now like know, like a new way
about it. And I would like, of course,
share with you my emotion.
I'm super pumped for you.
Let me know when you see it.
Timmy, you should be there.
is right by Times Square.
I'm going to send you the address and you're going to be there.
I'll try my best. I have no idea.
I don't even know what day it starts or anything, but probably.
What – we're talking about Monday night.
Isn't it starting on Thursday?
So Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday?
NFT NYC is Wednesday and Thursday only this year.
They actually cut a day out, which works perfect for our exhibition.
Hopefully we should get a lot of foot traffic through
there. So anybody in New York, Friday we have an
exhibition. But that Monday before
NFT NYC, I think it's the 22nd
or 23rd, something like that,
90 artists. It's going to be a really
with all the artists. And Maria
many of the one love members are going to be up there.
So you definitely got to come hang with us.
So a lot of you guys are going to be on the billboard of Manhattan.
I imagine that Marie's going to be there to see it in person too. Something all the way over. I mean, that's, that's really cool. She is? Yeah. She's going to be there to see it in person too
Yeah, she's going to be there, man
She spent like a week trying to get her visa
She got stuck in the country to go get her visa
Have you ever been to Americaica it was difficult to get a
visa yeah it was difficult to get a visa and uh i'm so happy that i got it and of course i would
like to see you i would like to see you all there and yeah new york was my dream so i i really happy
about it i really happy about nft I'm really happy about NFT NYC.
Manhattan's like the coolest place in the world.
And your thing's Times Square is packed.
It's going to be the coolest,
pretty much the coolest place you can ever display your art.
That's maybe the coolest thing ever.
And have fun around there. You're going to be able to walk around and you'll see it is quite lively.
You will have people dancing, break dancing, it's crazy over there.
You're going to be like, this is something like I've never been to a place like this.
So it's very fun, Times Square.
It's going to be an eye-opening moment for Marie.
Like nothing else in the world.
I'm excited to experience her joy of seeing New York City.
I wish everybody could make it, though.
I wish it was easier for all these guys to make it.
There's so many I'd love to have there.
Just really, really happy, Marie, to have you as a part of the DAO,
to have you be a part of that Billboard exhibition.
I've seen Maria Ozer's artwork already.
I've seen Marie's artwork already.
It's going to be so dope.
And I hope that time will change and it will be easy to get Risa
and more artists could go to New York to see their work.
Thank you so much for giving me a mic.
It's a very big deal to be featured in Manhattan.
It's expensive real estate.
That's very expensive real estate.
So congratulations, Zaka.
That's a tremendous achievement.
That's something you put in your bio.
Oops, sorry, Zaka. Yeah, guys. Sorry, Zaka.
Yeah, of course, of course.
I hope that it will help me
Yeah, anyway, it's, you know,
I'm so happy and grateful for one last
doll for chas thank you so much it's our pleasure it's really an honor and i'm happy that artwork's
on scurpee everybody actually go pick a piece up it's still available marie yeah yeah it's still available, Marie? Yep. Yep. It's still available.
It's actually a really good price, too.
I just love how people are from everywhere doing different things.
Open editions, editions, featured in manhattan
physicals ai i mean it's just the range is crazy the talent is a is immense it's uh pretty cool
to see brain digs up here she's been helping me forever and she does some of the most unique
you don't know brain digs takes photos of like different what what is it with gems and stuff
brain digs glass glass glass and crafted glass
Very cool takes just these cool different images. It's just people are just do the most unique cool stuff
So just an honor to have everyone what's up brain digs?
Well, I just wanted I'm dropping in and out
But I just wanted to pop up and say congratulations to you and your whole team you guys have been doing an amazing
amazing job under a lot of pressure and
i'm uh thrilled to finally see it come to fruition and i'm really happy to be on it and um just
wanted to say thank you and hope uh everything goes as planned for you all and for us all
and i'm looking forward to um seeing a lot of faces on there and it's fun to see
people that kind of have seen in the old days pop back up into the into the space again so and
also obviously all the new people hope they will all do well on Skirpy and I'm sure they will. So thank you so much, Skirpy, for everything.
Thank you, Blaine. And you've been with me before we were even, I think, even doing any beta testing, right? Like forever, forever.
Yeah, I was trying to help out a little bit because I'm not super tech savvy and I was
probably a perfect person for helping you with that kind of stuff.
Cause I can find easily find the problems.
I've been around for quite a while with you,
You said you've been around for quite a while.
Yeah. Just been around, been around with you guys, with youged for a second. You said you've been around for quite a while. Then what happened? Yeah, just been around with you for a long time.
And back in the day, hanging out in spaces with you and helping you out a little bit early on with this project and through the beta testing and everything.
So I'm very happy that it's finally here for everyone else to appreciate.
here for everyone else to appreciate.
So get your friends to sign up.
So get your friends to sign up.
Yeah, literally anyone can go to the site now and see it.
So I think that's going to help a ton.
If you buy something, you could share right on Twitter, right,
or X, whatever you want to call it.
And then people can instantly, or if you're listing something for sale,
you're able to just share it on X and it'll pop right up
that little thumbnail preview.
People will be able to click it. And then if maybe they don't have a Skirpy
account, they'll be able to just collect from you instantly. Then bam, they're integrated in the
Skirpy ecosystem, right? They have an account now. It was super easy. I think the invite only part
was really helpful and important in the beginning stages of Skirpy. But now I want to let anyone be
able to sign up and use it. What's up, Chaz? I know you're answering my question. So invites are no longer.
Not right this second, no.
Oh, Braindig's rugged, but no, not right this second.
It's open to everyone, Skirpy.
Anyone can sign up right this second and sign up.
Maybe we'll bring back the invites in the future, but right now, no.
I like how anyone can see it.
Log out and check it out, guys.
If you're on Skirpy, log out and look at it.
You'll be able to see what people see when they're not logged in.
They basically can see a ton of stuff, you know, except you can't see everything, you know, on the home feed or you can't go to your, make a profile and stuff.
Obviously, you need to connect your wallet.
But they're able to actually interact at least somewhat
with a lot of the stuff and see it.
And then obviously tempting them to make an account
to access all the features.
So we're hoping that people see your artwork
that maybe wouldn't be on Skirpy
or have an invite previously.
And now they'll be able to easily sign up,
buy from you, interact with you.
increase interactions and sales and everything i would say i would think you know i agree it's
amazing and i like the way it looks i think it's uh pretty clean looking for someone that's not
logged in so yeah i'm very very proud of it and i hope you guys enjoy it obviously being invite only
was unique and it gave that foundation like feel but i also think that it's important that anyone can access it so you know
so we can actually compete on tezos tuesday and days like that with the largest uh marketplaces
on on tezos right like it needs to be open to everyone so uh this is the way to do it now anyone
can sign up on scurpy anyone can make an And, yeah, we prevent spam because there is a fee to create a collection.
So I think that, you know, this creates – that fee you pay when you create a collection helps filter, you know, quality content.
Like if it was just like a zero Tezos fee – and that fee doesn't all go to us.
That goes to gas and storage, right, half of that, sometimes more than half. So, you know, that fee also helps keep
the marketplace with quality art primarily, right? Because people actually have to pay a fee to create
a collection. So there's a lot of stuff that go into it. And I'm very happy that, you know,
scalability wise, it's fast. It's not egregiously expensive to run. It's giving a good user
experience. And we'll have new tools for you guys soon,
like the collab contracts, dark mode.
And, uh, from there it could be, you know, maybe new blockchains and stuff.
We'll see which direction we go, but you definitely want to be here mining every day,
creating, collecting, and just stacking points.
Cause one day, you know, with those points I'd like to, uh, potentially reward our user
So, you know, that's my plan. Give you guys an actual, you know, why would you I'd like to potentially reward our user base. So, you know, that's my
plan. Give you guys an actual, you know, why would you buy on any other marketplace when you can earn
points on Scurpee for creating, for collecting, you're able to mine, right? So I think that
this kind of incentive, I'm trying to incentivize you to use Scurpee over the other marketplaces
and get people, your friends or whoever, you know, obviously with the invite only we had to sign up and you can mine at a faster rate and stuff.
So I think the gamified ecosystem, you know, we haven't even started the season one.
You know, we have a lot of stuff that we can do and release.
So I'm just super pumped about it being public.
And yeah, so expect a lot.
yeah so expect a lot what's up uh bahar what's up dress and draw
What's up, Dress and Draw?
sorry for i's raising my hand but i need to go to my daughter's school in five minutes so i
just wanted to quickly say hi say congratulations with a public lunch we were waiting it's so long
it was um it was amazing because i heard a many artists like Scorpio was like a flat fresh air
In our space and we are so grateful for giving us this fresh air
So many emotions for this contest
Which called beyond the imaginarium. It was so active so funny funny, I mean in many ways. So just wanted to
quickly say thank you. And I wish it will be more successful every day. So looking forward
to be on Scurpy more, to create more. So that's it, my quick speech.
Well, thank you, Dress and Draws.
And by the way, I was not a judge on Beyond Imaginarium.
I had no involvement, no pullout.
I didn't even see the submissions, but I saw yours on the Marketplace.
And I don't know if you placed Dress and Draw, but that was personally one of my favorite entries.
But I have a few copies left,
Actually, I have two copies on Scorpio,
so feel free to grab if someone wants,
but yes, it was just a pure pleasure to create something,
because during contest, you usually don't think about the prize,
you just want to create something.
I just want to say, Timmy, your involvement in things like that is really critical.
And you don't see that with other marketplaces.
And I think the fact that you dive deep in with the artist, you are engaged, you are promoting.
By the way, that's the biggest value of the platform. Forget about the gamification,
which is amazing, but the promotion that you give to everybody and the visibility is really the most important part and that's where most of the other marketplaces have lost out because they
only promote the people that bring in the most money. They don't bring in, they don't promote the small guys.
And, uh, and I think that you've done an amazing job at that.
So, and Elena, uh, amazing artwork.
I'm so glad you were a part of that.
I was happy to be a part.
I was a judge, but I didn't vote.
I never, I'd never had time to do it, but it was a really beautiful, uh, exhibition
And just very proud of your work.
Thank you, thank you so much.
will be out. School, school
Have a nice day and space,
so love you all. Keep drawing!
I love your drawings, Dress and Draw.
I think they're very, I don't know.
And thank you for launching this Scorpii.
And really, I really love Scorpii.
And thank you for supporting and beautiful and amazing platform.
And after that, I have a question.
Two weeks, I have a problem for listing my artwork.
I couldn't list my artwork with PC.
I must list with my phone.
Yeah, you got to talk to us in the Telegram.
I know we've tried with help, but yeah, I
don't know. It might be a VPN issue where you got to change your RPC. We're not really
sure with you, Bahar. Are you on the old contract or are you on a new contract? For when I was my artwork, my listing is expired and expired and I wanted to list again, I
have this problem and for my new meeting and recently after mint with a PC I must list
with my phone. I couldn't list with my PC, I don't know. And I trying and a lot of message on a click round,
but my problem don't solve.
I'm sorry for this helping.
I hope, I don't know why my problem
it's going to be your region.
it's not an easy connection for you
It's more than likely something to do with that.
The fact that you can actually do it from your phone
At least you have the option and the ability to do it.
Definitely chat in the help group and the ability to do it but definitely chat in
the help group and and you know they can dig into it and see if they can try to figure out if there's
something additional they can do to help make sure that you're maybe on like a browser like google
chrome you know not that not like a telegrams browser make sure you're on like google chrome
something like that like a primary browser and see if it sure you're on like Google Chrome, something like that,
like a primary browser and see if it works better.
If not, you should be right,
you write us in the Telegram.
There's a way to see the error if you're on desktop
and then we can evaluate it farther
and see what the real error is.
So if you write us on Telegram, we'll try our best.
I know you said you've had this problem before,
but then I see you mint new art,
So it seems like it's just inconsistent.
Thank you so much, dear Timmy.
And thank you so much, dear Chad.
Maybe it's my net in Iran week for PC.
Mint or not list is very crazy for me and i have a lot of
artwork in a scarpy i i really for amazon for me because i 26 28 minting my painting on a Scorpio and more object
in the Amazon platform I really love.
And I wish best for you dear Timmy and your team
and have a beautiful time, have a beautiful weekend.
Thank you, thank you so much.
Dear Chaz and Timmy for response.
Try in the telegram also.
Thank you, Bahar. And your art's so beautiful. I love having you on Scorpio. Thank you, my dear. Thank you,
And your art's so beautiful.
I love having you on Skirpy.
I just want to let you know.
I see your art all the time.
I try my best to highlight you whenever I can.
and write to us on telegram if you can.
I know we're celebrating your opening.
I want to let you know there's a birthday girl on stage.
If you want to say happy birthday to Evelina.
I hope you're having a good one today.
It's Friday night, so you're not having that good of a birthday.
What are you doing in here?
I'm so pleased. I don't know. I'm'm just chilling i'm in a house in the forest but i just couldn't miss this space
well it's an honor to have you how old are you turning today 24 oh i'm jealous i'm 29 i wish i can go back in time being 24 damn you wish
yeah but oh my god timmy i i just realized i heard you once saying you were 24 so i know you
since you were 24 oh my god yeah it's messed up man well i don't know if i'd want to go back in
time and grind all that again
but i would like to get those years back that'd be great but then still have scurpee right now so
that's what i would like but happy birthday abelina and thank you i think that in the
other universe you're still 24 exactly i was way more reckless i was way more reckless. I was way more reckless when I was 24.
You know, now I feel like, I feel like, I don't even like, you know, there's a stat.
Like, I think it's 90% of people over 30 never sprint again in their lives.
I'm like, I don't want to be part of that 90% of people.
They never run full speed ever again when they get over 30, 90% of people.
this year in december 26 so evelina enjoy it yes i'm enjoying but i'm sure that most of you
will be in their 10 yes i'm sure but now i'm not really active because I injured my leg and I'm just looking at other people who are having fun and so on.
But yes, I'm also having fun, but very calm for now.
Evelina, don't be like Timmy and have like 15,000 knee surgeries before you're 30.
Okay, so just take care of your body.
What surgery did you get?
What surgery did you have?
What injury did you have to your leg?
Oh, it's not really the thing for the space, I think.
And moreover, I can't explain it in English.
I just had surgery on my knee like two weeks ago.
So that's why I was asking.
But I've had eight knee surgeries i get
hurt a lot from fighting so um it is what it is when you play sports you get hurt it is you know
that's just the risk you take oh my god i'm really sorry to hear that but of course yours is much more
serious uh mine is very very stupid i just fell on the stairs I just missed the step
that's not stupid that's not stupid I it's not bad at all mine is actually more embarrassing
than that this time last last time I tore my knee I was fighting Al Jermaine Sterling or
grappling with him wrestling and choking each other out he's he was the UFC champion and I was
wrestling with him and I tore my knee my My knee got stuck, a bucket handle tear. It was
terrible. Right. Uh, but that's a cool story, right? That's if you're going to tear your knee,
you might as well fight the toughest, toughest guy in the whole entire world. Right. That's,
that's, that's honorable. This time my girlfriend's dad was hitting golf balls and he's an older man.
He's like 70 or so whatever and I was gonna pick the
balls up for him as he was you know I didn't make the guy pick the balls up and I was like
jogging slash like walking and looking for the balls not even looking where I stepped and I
stepped wrong in like a pottle or I don't even know when the the tore my knee like walking so I got you beat oh my god oh no
but you know I think that it is a bit another case when you do some sports because before
I was a professional dancer and it was okay for me to injure something from time to time. But I knew that I can get it.
But when you leave, just your very calm life,
it is very, very funny and stupid.
It's the risk you take, right?
I have no pity for you at all.
I mean, you're sitting there fighting,
something you don't even have to do. Peace and love, brother. I don't ask for you at all. I mean, you're sitting there fighting something you don't even have to do.
Man, peace and love, brother.
I don't ask for any pity.
I've torn my ACL three times.
I've had three ACL reconstructions.
That's a major fighting sport injury that usually ends people's careers.
But I don't use it as an excuse.
I use that as motivation to want to come back and be the best fighter in the world right that that was always the drive
was like i'm not gonna let these people catch up to me like you know i'm crazy in the head like that
uh but yeah my body is made up my knees are made of glass i get i get hurt or break my ribs or
yeah it's kind of a rough that's why keith is a keith made of like uh what's the material i can't
i'm forget adamantium or something.
He's like 40 and still fighting.
I never heard Keith was fighting.
Some people are more durable than others.
Like, I'm really fast and explosive and very talented.
But my engine blows up all the time.
Like, my knees just explode.
Where Keith is fucking, is a Hummer H2 or something.
So we all know where Timmy's Achilles heel is.
Like I'll still be able to choke the person out,
but my knee might be torn after.
I hope you have an amazing day.
Happy 24th and have an amazing night.
Get out of here and go party.
She's in the rainforest. Let her enjoy the rainforest.
rainforest. Just a simple
Russian forest, you know.
A simple Russian girl with vodka in her blood she dances with brown bears
no one wants bears who said bears no one wants to be around no they're russian of course they
have bears man they dance with bears yeah we have no i know we have bears i live in america
they have real we have black bears they have real They have brown bears. Our bears are wimps. Yeah, we have
Oh my god, I don't remember.
There's animal that is in your garden.
Like moose or antelope or something.
very big, just like three
moose or something, you know what I mean? Or what do they call buffalo be like a moose or something. You know what I mean?
Or what do they call buffalo?
Like a moose or something?
I've never, I don't think, maybe, I don't think I've ever seen a moose. is it oh yeah yeah that's crazy i've never i don't think maybe i
don't think i've ever seen a moose
go to russia i'm on the way
by the way where are you on the way to i hear you walking fast
careful with that knee oh i moved i went to my front lawn
i'm sitting outside my house so if you want to assassinate me you got like 20
minutes to to come and get me i'm sitting outside my house so if you want to assassinate me you got like 20 minutes to to come and get me i'm sitting outside right outside
hello everybody sorry i was eating salad um first of all, I want to say, Skirpy, I just learned something new about you.
I'm a big, big fan for you to be doing that with Sterling.
Now I'm even more excited to meet you in person.
I fought Marab the round before that. No way. Oh, my God. We're going to have so in person. I was excited before. I fought Marab the round before that.
No way! Oh my god, we're going to have
so many conversations. I'm
really, really big. He fights tonight, by the way.
I have a shirt right now of Izzy
That's how big of a fan I am.
But the other thing I wanted
to say is, happy Birthday, Evelina!
Just to give you props and to say happy birthday.
Oh my God, you're all such sweeties.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart such sweeties. Thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, y'all. Thank you.
And thank you, Hito, by the way, for just being a super user and supporting so many people, dropping art, just being the absolute man.
I just want to say thank you for that. And that's dope, man. We'll definitely talk some UFC. That's my favorite subject maybe in the world to talk about.
Thank you for bringing that up.
I want to say a huge thank you to everybody who has been supporting my art as well.
Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.
You know, just as you appreciate when somebody buys your art, I'm feeling the same thing.
And I'm so, so grateful for, like like the love and support you guys give me.
And as you know, like any of that money just goes right back to any other artists, like
whoever I see that I just want to support, like nothing is coming back to me.
I'm not making any profits.
I don't have to say these things, but I just want to want everybody to know that like,
I love to see everybody's know that like, I love to see
everybody's works. Like, thank you. I'm so glad I came in at this time, like right when you started
Skirpy, because like, I'm able to take part in so many opportunities, so many things that
have like, you know, made my eyes so happy to see, to be able to connect with so many people. And also,
you know, as well as like introduce people to your platform, like I really like what you're doing,
you know, even though Dark Mode is still not here, but it's all love, man. At the end of the day,
like I know that it takes a lot of work in order to like manage something like this to bring it
to fruition. But because of you and the platform,
I've been able to connect with so many people
and get to see so much art.
And I'm just very thankful.
Thank you very much for supporting my art.
Like, it means the world to me,
but it's also just helping me be able to buy more
So much love and thank you so much.
And you're very fun to talk to, man.
You're a lot more than just your art.
That's why people also support you.
You post about other people.
You're a stand-up guy we love
having you in the community thank god that you got in the nft space uh three months ago or so
four months ago whatever it was you know perfect timing thank you we built this for years so you uh
you got to reap the benefits my man thank god i left uh crypto regular crypto you mean i've been on this for like since uh 2022 or 20 like yeah like the end of 22.
uh so i was coming uh in like the down of like the you know when like when the bear was happening
uh and i got to go through so many motions and stuff i've met a lot of like amazing people but
i've been having the most fun with art. Like art has,
you know, it's always been my passion. And now that I'm involved in it like a hundred percent
and being here with you all, like, man, I have had so many more experiences in like months
than I had in the four years of being in this space.
I mean, you're in some pretty fast times.
There's a lot of options, a lot of things going on.
You're thrown into the mix of it all.
You know, you got your four months.
It was really probably like a year or two in this space,
put you into Harvard, my boy.
Put you into Harvard, my boy.
I see HODL on Trey down there laughing.
Shout out to HODL. Trey, come up here and speak, man.
You only collect on Scurpy.
We don't ever get to hear you speak.
I think it's cool to hear the voice.
If you don't want to, you don't have to.
Should we add pokes on Scurpy?
I don't know, man. That can get dangerous.
No, it would be pretty annoying.
It would be pretty annoying, but at the same time...
They can literally just send a message.
Nothing's stopping them from sending a message.
That's the way you can poke at Scurpy right now.
I miss the poke. I loved poking people
on Facebook when I was like 14 years old
no it's true like chad says like sometimes i'm like trying to do some work in there and you just
hear but it's like yo can i like work because the scurpee was 14 was poking everything he could
big poker on facebook and you get poked right back and you poke them and they poke back you're
like what am i doing what is what is my life um they got rid of that feature after a while
but uh i always think about it i'm like damn it's kind of fun to do something like that
not poking but who knows i just think something fun like that anyway just uh thinking out loud
here father i see you father gabriel dropping one of the most, I would say,
iconic PFP collections so far on
Skirpy. I can't wait for more PFP collections and
projects and stuff like this. There's not many.
So, what's up? The gaming
It's a big day. It's a big day.
day. Happy Friday. Happy Skirpy
Man, where do I even begin where do i even begin let me just start off by saying i've never had so much success i'll just use a basic word there
uh success on any platform and i've been in the nft space for almost over four years now i've been on object open c
everything under the book uh there is such a strong sense of community and the people that
we know and love and have bonded with over time on scurpy that is nothing like anything else I've ever been on.
It's absolutely not on Object. It's absolutely not on OpenSea as far as I'm concerned.
And I love it. I love being a part of something new. I love being a part of, you know, the first
audience to usher in a groundbreaking platform. And, you know, it goes without saying, look around.
There's so many of us with this silly little project
that I started just out of boredom one day.
And I do want to emphasize the point that I did not ask
a single one of these PFP holders to put it as a PFP.
In fact, I didn't make a single Tezos off of any of them.
Every PFP that you see in this space right now was given for free out of the love of my heart for the people that I'm giving them.
And because of that, they've chosen out of their own kindness of their heart to to rocket and the
rocket they are we are i did a count yesterday official count is 21 people with either a
father gabriel i'll go by that now uh pfp or banner and literally i've been here so long never had
that kind of attention never had that
kind of success and i'm loving it i'm loving it and i think the best way to show my gratitude to
you scurpee to everyone else who is loving and supporting this fun little retro toyland
collection is to just go hard on it put that pedal to the metal and just make it the best
for you guys i i've always believed in community first uh with projects like this and i've never
done a pfp project before it literally came out of nowhere uh but now it's it's the talk of the
town we had a wedding which i remember you popped in uh earlier this week and
i swear to god not at least you remember at least you remember they didn't remember chaz yeah i
remembered i remembered uh but i think maybe we had a bit too much fun at the after party the
memory is a little a little fuzzy there but literally not tooting my own horn best space i've ever had the pleasure
of being a part of i can't believe i was a host of it it's the talk of the town of of the week so
uh you know i gotta thank chas and maria for you know being the two loving people uh that were you know put on on stage that day and we all were just
showering them with love it literally felt like a real wedding there were people giving them gifts
uh everyone came up a little speech telling them what does chas and maria mean to you what is your
favorite memory and it was just beautiful it was beautiful but but but but but but but but but if I may
if I may because there are two
really really really incredible
people here on stage with
me right now and I gotta talk about something else
because your boy Father Gabriel
oh thank you Hito you pinned it up
where is it that has an active link Oh, thank you, Hito. You pinned it up. You pinned it up. Let me pin up...
stopping at Glitch Bricks
things up. I don't want to be just
to really focus on having fun.
You want to work on your pimp team?
So if you're not ready for a full-on marriage like Chaz and Maria,
we got Glitch Gang Date Night.
If you don't know what Glitch Gang is,
that is my little independent community of small artists.
And what this is is a very simple game.
I start an open edition featuring an artwork of one of our beautiful members.
We have Stephanie up there, currently on the Jumbotron.
And we leave the open edition open for about three
to four or five-ish days,
of it all, we're going to host a space
where it's not like a typical
oh, tell me, what inspires you,
blah, blah, blah, type of
interview. It's going to be more like
or who's your dream girl, what's your dream guy? Or who's your dream girl?
What was your first kiss?
Things we don't usually ask in WebTay.
We're going to get down and dirty and personal with our featured members.
And if you scroll back one more, we aren't just doing women.
We are doing our handsome male members as well.
We got Hito coming up immediately after Stephanie.
So be on the lookout for that.
And we're going to be going back and forth between guys and girls.
So we start off with Stephanie.
And after Hito, we have the birthday girl herself,
the beautiful princess, Evelina, who will be joining us as our third featured Glitch
Gang date night guest. And the winner, the winner, the winner of it, because each open
edition is a raffle ticket, the winner will receive a one-of-one personalized portrait of them.
So you come to the space, you learn about them, you win the ticket, and it could be anything.
For example, Stephanie is a very proud Japanese, beautiful girl.
So if you want to take her to Japan or even a Japanese restaurant, or even have her cook a traditional Japanese so if you want to you know take her to japan or even a japanese restaurant
or even have her cook a traditional japanese meal for you i will create that in art form
same thing with hito you want to go to the brooklyn bridge you want to uh you know see
the statue of liberty whatever it's all up to you and i will make that for you uh as a one-of-one for the winners so
more fun on skirpy and i highly doubt that will be my last crazy idea on the platform so if you're
not following me there uh please do because we're doing some exciting stuff and before i give the
mic back just everyone who is rocking a retro 29 pfp i give you mountains and mountains and mountains
of gratitude never would have imagined i'd be you know having so many people with my art
as a pfp i'm incredibly incredibly grateful for all of you and you as well scapey thank you
for blessing us little artists with finally something where we can shine we weren't shining
on object no we were dull we were getting boring we were getting dusty over on object but then
like an angel oh scurpee comes in and there's life brother there is i almost rugged i almost
rugged holy shit my phone was overheating outside. It was like a thousand degrees.
But I heard what you were saying.
You're doing a new collection.
I like how you're gamifying your stuff and making it a different experience to build community.
like that's what's making you successful is you're doing it differently than most people.
And I think you should keep doing super unique stuff like this.
And Timmy, so you know, I built a utility for Stoner that is integrated with Skirpy where he can do his raffles.
Literally just puts in the URL of his token and it goes and pulls all the wallet holders.
It has a shuffle tool and then it has the wheel of names.
You can literally say spin it and then it pulls up the winning wallet
in which they can click a link, brings it right to the Scurpy profile
so they can see who it is.
I had this tool before for another platform.
It didn't integrate with yours, but I created a whole new one yesterday
just so Stoner could do this.
And I'll even send you the code Scurpy in case you ever want to utilize it inside the site.
Oh, that's awesome that you did that.
And I'd be the first community-made thing on Skirpy, to be honest,
like a tool integrating with Skirpy.
So that's awesome to hear.
I think you're going to like some of the stuff we have planned in the future
Like developer-wise, like if you're a developer, you're going to be able to the stuff we have planned in the future on Skirpy, Chaz.
Developer-wise, if you're a developer, you're going to be able to thrive on Skirpy in the future.
We have some stuff we got to do.
But I think that, yeah, I won't talk about that right now.
But that's the future of Skirpy.
I look at Farcaster and seeing some of the stuff they do and uh i think we have some pretty cool plans with some some stuff i don't want to talk about that right now i will give away too much
damn it i'm trying guys i'm trying my best basically i'll just say you potentially will have a totally new use case for your NFTs that we haven't seen anywhere else that you'll be able to do.
And that's very vague, but it's something that's completely unique that we haven't seen anywhere else that we're thinking about.
And it makes sense and I think would really change almost NFTs. So we'll see.
This is something a couple months out and I don't even know which blockchain we'd even do it on and stuff.
But yeah, like you were saying also before, Jazz,
about an hour ago, you were talking about developing on Tezos and stuff.
And yeah, also AI doesn't help you that much on Tezos.
There's not a lot of, you know, hasn't been trained on Tezos,
you know, versus like Solidity.
So it's helpful, you know, but it's trained on Tezos, you know, versus like a solidity. So it's, it's helpful, you know, but not, it's not like it's, it's overly helpful.
I mean, I've searched, I wanted to do a blind mint on Skirpy, not Skirpy, on Tezos.
And I searched forever to try to find anything.
And basically you have to write the code if you want to do something like that.
So I know the pains that you're going through,
and I want to relay that to everybody here
Yeah, and Nico knows he was wanting to do it himself,
And it was like, it's nearly impossible.
I mean, it's not impossible.
We could easily do it if we just spend time on it.
But it's time and energy and resources
that we could be spending on making the site faster
or this or the collab contract.
But no, we're very proficient at writing smart contracts.
I mean, all the smart contracts work.
But yeah, I would like to add more.
And I think that that's going to give the artist more tools.
Like if they could just deploy potentially also on other blockchains like bam one click and you're on
a different blockchain x blockchain or y blockchain whatever you know that that'll open up a whole new
world for artists where they can actually maintain their art control of their art on different
blockchains all in one place you know now and listen the reality is when you have a product
so people understand this when you have a product like, you need to have a roadmap that goes out a year or two.
You need to have continual excitement, continual additions.
You can't just push it all out in one shot and be like, okay, I'm done.
Have fun and expect it to do anything.
It'll be exciting for the first moment, but then it will start to fade away.
So you need to have new features.
I'm sure they have a massive list.
Timmy has a massive list of feature requests.
And all those features will come.
And that's the beauty of being a part of this so early.
You guys get to experience that and be the first to use it.
And I think it's really awesome, Timmy, what you guys are doing.
And, yeah, we're going to get to everything.
You're going to have dark mode.
You're going to have the collab contracts right so you know maybe other block
chains and stuff so that's what excites me is the future of scurvy other things
like you know maybe potentially token creation tools right on scurvy you
create your own token right and with your collections their prediction
markets who knows which direction we go with it but I do know everyone's really early
because I don't we don't plan on stopping building anytime soon and we've proven like we can build
real scalable really you know good products so you guys are seeing it's gamified so as long as
you're using scurpy you're earning points and I hope that we make this the largest application
in crypto and everyone in here is uh you know rewarded for being an early user and user of the
application so that's that's the plan you see the vision you're number one on the leaderboard you
know we're we're no fucking joke we're uh we're ready to go we're hungrier and it's community
driven it's uh completely unique the whole scurpy story and ecosystem and the way it works and i
don't plan on you know uh changing a thing i like the way how everyone has kind of a say and everyone
tries their best you know everyone gets shown it's going to remain the same i haven't for one
second sold out ever so i don't plan on it and i plan on just keep moving forward and giving you
guys an awesome experience so that's it it's just going to be continue to get better faster and you
guys will continue to only have more features you know like i'd like it on your profile if when you
look at created or collected you could just filter through your collections right there.
You're going to just become so spoiled in the future.
You guys don't even know.
You're going to have such a great experience.
We just haven't had time to actually concentrate on these small little user-friendly stuff.
Because the blockchain, like you said, is hard to develop on.
You have to make sure it's reliable.
And every transaction is there and shows up on the marketplace and it's tracked.
And we give notifications for everything social and blockchain wise. So, you know, we had
to make sure everything is good and security, right? Like you have people that always try to
attack the site, right? Bad things on the site. And there's a lot to it, obviously managing. So
I think this, the past couple of months, the past two months and two weeks or so has given us a
tremendous learning experience where we now
have a lot of stuff in place that we didn't have. So I think that was the best thing we ever did was
do the invite only stuff because that made us have to figure out how to scale better because
things were heavy and how to change this, change the SCIRP system, change the contracts. We got
so much better. So I'm very excited about the future
because we only get we just keep learning and keep getting better and better and better so
um and chas that's dope that you made a tool that that obviously people can use i'm sure that's very
useful for a lot of artists a lot of artists can gamify their mid so let's say share it with them
man scurp it scurp it,000 plus Scurp so far.
So, you know, I can't wait till a million.
Damn, I didn't realize it was that many.
People Scurp doesn't cost money.
People are always like, you should have it cost money to Scurp and have it all on chain.
I was like, no, that's not the way to do it.
The way to do it is, in my opinion, it shouldn't cost money to Scurp.
Everyone should be able to socialize. But yeah, when you interact with the blockchain, like a marketplace, buy, sell, prediction market, token creation, all that stuff.
Yeah, obviously that should be on chain.
But the social media part of it, I don't think you should pay to post.
I think everyone should be able to sign up and use it.
And if they want to get involved in the crypto experience, then you start integrating with wallet connected stuff.
I'm not sure how many users we have that are email only, but that's something we need to be
better about is probably getting more standard users, right? That aren't maybe so crypto heavy,
even though that's the user we want. Like, I think it would be also good if we could find
another niche somehow user-wisewise in that Web2 world.
Now, that might be comic books.
That might be collectibles, physical collectibles.
There's a lot of different ways that Skirpy can go about our future here
because I'm really into comic books and collectibles.
If you guys don't know, that's my business that I run or used to run
primarily was sell online collectibles.
So I'm really into, obviously, online collectibles. So I'm really into obviously physical collectibles
like the rare Wolverine comics
and Hulk comics and Spider-Man comics.
So that's the future of Skirpy I see potentially too.
So I don't really know which direction we go.
All I know is it's publicly open.
Anyone can sign up, anyone can buy, anyone can sell.
I think the user experience is pretty good now
and the future is looking
you know pretty pretty sharp so if you're on scurpee it's only going to get better and people
like chaz and max maya uh people like father who just completely opened up a whole new world of
this week with a wedding uh maria the top creator arlick and top creator, Hedo, I would say, influencer slash artist. He's a mix of a slash UFC addict.
Like, he's kind of like what we want on Skirpy.
Someone that collects, that has a voice, that posts some art.
That's like the exact user we're looking for.
So it's pretty cool to see the different worlds all in one.
I know this has been a couple hours here.
And anyone else that wants to say anything or ask anything. And then I guess we'll wrap this up in a
Influencer, brother. I gave you the influencer title. I don't know. That's not a great title.
Some people don't like it. I like it. Influencer title. You're our Sean O'Malley.
I just never thought in my life. I never thought in my life i never thought in my life
somebody would ever call me that's hilarious it's your 69 centimeters detail that's what does it
let's go that's what i wanted to hear yeah baby no let me stop
who wins tonight he though sean omele or marab
I like Marab too, but it has to be Sean.
I need Sean to be back there, baby.
I think Sean O'Malley is going to win.
And I've also met Tim Welch at the Jiu-Jitsu World Championships.
And I told him the scale was off.
It was like seven pounds off the scale. I've never seen a scale so off. It was like rig off it was like seven pounds off the scale
I've never seen a scale so off it was like rigged seven pounds off I cut all
this weight and the panel was set so anyway I told him that at the hotel so I
have a slight connection this film out a very little I just met Tim Wells for
like three days in my hotel
that's amazing no I really I really want sean to win um but you know marab is a machine bro like
i don't i it's amazing how he can keep up like for so long and just be you know at the
oh he's got skalau uh but yeah like it's just crazy that he can like keep fighting like even
in the last rounds like if he was like on the first round there's a way to beat so there's a
way to beat him like the way to beat Murab is you have to be able to like
counter-wrestle him and take his back.
So if you could take his back, if you take his back,
you could prevent him from constantly exploding
and keeping that pace on you.
You could hold him there for three or four minutes at a time
It's boring, but that's really, if I was coaching,
you know, Sean O'Malley probably can't do that to him, but
if I was training a fighter, the plan for
Merab would be we'd have to take his back and hold
him here for long periods of time.
That stamina, he can't use all that gas.
want a good old, you know,
old school Sean O'Malley punch
to the face, one hit knockout,
That's what I'm hoping for
yeah I think Sean O'Malley is gonna knock him out that's my prediction I think
it's gonna happen I believe I'm sure no one in the space gives it gives a crap
all right I'm gonna go that's a listeners because I'm taking the train I love
everybody thank you for having me up here and let's go All right, I'm gonna go down to listeners because I'm kicking the train. I love everybody.
Thank you for having me up here.
I want to say hello to Arlequin.
Happy birthday to everyone who had or have too many birthdays lately.
And I would like to say thank you very much to Scorpio and to Scorpio's support.
Because actually a lot of platforms have problems from time to time.
It's really painful, but it's not so painful when support answers very fast.
I think it's the most important thing because Scorpio working, I think, all the time.
At night, sometimes I think that nobody sleeps.
And it's really cool cool and respect for this thank you yeah scurvy runs 24 7 there is no five days a week it's 24 7 julia
yes we don't mess around we gotta make you sales julia we don't mess around
We got to make you sales, Julia.
Yeah, actually, for the last time, Scorpio is the most active platform and very loyal.
And it's very cute and it's very cool because for me, this platform is very welcomed.
So, and this in tweet, thank you for this.
It's to all people who work very hard,
as Scorpi, as everyone on all platforms, every artist.
It's about burning out that we shouldn't forget
to improve our minds, refresh it, and don't press ourselves very hard because sometimes it's very important to have rest.
And I think when you have enough rest, you can make more cool things so i hope scorpy is is okay because it's real i'm
uh it's really surprising for me how um how hard support work because it's very cool
i'm surprised very much and thank you for this no problem and yeah I think
it's important that we do our best to respond to you but also Julia we've
fixed the minting flow a lot of it so that's helping us not have to have it
there's not as many problems now obviously you're not having to save lock
mint and our whole minting flows on the back end.
Everything's gotten smoother now, so there should really be almost no issues with it.
Very rare there's any issues.
So I think that's helped us a ton because that stunk for us, you know, having to respond.
And then if the collection wasn't showing up, having to import it in, right, that became very – that hurt.
Then we weren't able to develop, like you were saying.
We were just working on fixing that,
not actually developing stuff for the future.
So now we're able to actually worry about the future.
So yeah, you're right, Julia.
And I love having you on Scurpy.
You have some of the coolest.
You're actually on the cover of Scurpy right now, Julia.
But you have some of the coolest,
coolest art I've ever seen.
You know, I'm one of your biggest fans.
Yeah, actually, the platform
I like it. Thank you for this.
your beautiful art there, Julia.
It's something else. You have some of the coolest art on the whole platform.
You sold a piece for, I think, a thousand Tezos, right?
Yeah, thank you for creating such amazing space.
I think that's the second highest sales,
Scurby, if I'm not mistaken, on the platform.
She was the reigning queen for a while.
And so well-deserved, too.
Her artwork is absolutely incredible.
The detail, the energy, it's incredible.
Love, love, love your artwork.
And you can get her additions.
Her additions aren't like Zillian Tezo.
It's like the one-on-one.
He snipes them. i snipe them the one-on-ones the one-on-ones i can't afford because i got to pay my developers julia so i'm sorry but i try to grab those additions on my personal account
when i can picky picky's got a thousand tezos he must own like bitcoins or something what's
picky doing right now he's buying her artwork that's what he's doing right now probably is picky's always
collecting he's he is uh number two collector right now i think on the platform so it's cool
to see like you know picky came from avalanche picky was an avalanche collector so you know we
get collectors from different blockchains and from different ecosystems all in one.
And, you know, it doesn't really matter which coin they use because Skirpy is gamified.
Right. Ultimately, they're, you know, maybe potentially trying to farm Skirpy coin.
Right. So it's pretty cool to see people from different blockchains.
Yeah, I tried to convince Picky to come to New York.
I tried, but he's complaining about the border.
He's saying it's hard for Canadians to get down here.
yeah, they want to search our phones and shit.
They're just going to find tons of Bitcoin.
I don't even know if he has Bitcoin.
Like if you travel 10,000 more cash,
like it's, it's, you have to, like, declare it.
Like, what do you do for Bitcoin?
You got, like, 50 Bitcoin in your wallet.
Well, that's the beauty of Bitcoin is it's, you can't.
Like, you know, you walk to the super, not the supermarket, oh my God. You walk through the airport, you get sniffed by a drug dog, and you get your bag checked for the cash.
They're going to ask you, what are you doing with this $20,000 in cash?
Whereas, you know, you could walk to the airport with a billion dollars in Bitcoin and no one even knows.
That's why people say it's really good for drug dealers and stuff, which they're not wrong with their argument.
wrong with their argument, but at the same time, there's many use cases outside of that, right?
But at the same time, there's many use cases outside of that, right?
Like, let's say I want to buy a comic book collection today in New Jersey, and it's $7,000,
right? But my bank limit is $2,000, and it's 6 o'clock. They won't let me take out more than that.
I call them up. They go, we can raise the limit $1,000 more. Now I got $3,000, right? I still
need $4,000. I have to ask someone to take my money out that's insane so it's nice that with bitcoin i could just instantly at any time send a billion dollars
right and no one's going to question it or have any control over it so i think that there's a lot
of use cases for bitcoin unfortunately there's no incentive to spend bitcoin right because everyone
holds it it's very finite uh so there's just no incentive to spend it so i love bitcoin with on scurpy one
day too that's something i think about like damn that would be awesome then again i think about
like there's no incentive to spend your bitcoin who the hell is going to spend their bitcoin
i do i buy art unfortunately i've spent all my bitcoin but you know the only gotcha is and it's
a very important point is you are your own bank, though, right?
So you need to secure, you need to be extra careful.
And there's a reason why banks do that type of stuff, is to limit the risk for loss.
But it is really amazing being able to send money to anybody anywhere in the world instantly and not have to go through anybody else.
So, yeah, that utility is massive.
Yeah, I mean, there's negatives.
Like, your house can burn down with all your Bitcoin.
There's definitely some negative things that can happen.
So, if you have everything written down on your ceiling somewhere
and your house burns down, that would stink.
I don't know if you ever heard this story from Senrug.
We interviewed him, and he's just talking about how he's been
rugged out of not like a couple bitcoin but literally tens of thousands of bitcoin he's
been rugged out of can you imagine that type of thing i mean i i haven't been rugged out of it
but i i used to own two percent of ave like uh maybe like seven years ago or six years ago.
I don't know if you know Aave, but I owned 2% of the token supply at one point when it was a $2 million market cap.
That's the worst trade I've ever made in my life.
We all have them, brother.
I don't know if anyone has that one, though.
Yeah, well, life goes on.
We got Skirpy now. now yeah you know what exactly i remember buying ave
when it was like a third of a penny and it was called eth lend it was before they rebranded
and uh the founder or the ceo whatever was young he was like 25 or 30 whatever something like that
looked like it at least and i remember being like i don't want to have 40 grand in this i'm like i don't even this kid looks like he's my
age like you know and uh i remember like selling it and then abe became such a success story such
an expensive coin such a cannot believe rebranded uh so you know what i was right thinking it was
the you know something that had potential. I just didn't hold.
So I always tell people to buy crypto.
You've got to diversify because you want to build like a million dollars in one thing or $10,000 in one thing or $1,000 in one thing.
All you need is to just put $10,000 in like 10 different things and just hope one of them is an Aave.
I mean that's just way better.
You have to go long term.
You have to go long term.
You have to hope one hits
and think it's going to be
the one is not going to hit.
I have a list of all the cryptos
great investments for the future.
and now it's like $700 or something. It's the only one. You only needed 10 of them, terrible. The one I liked, Binance was $5, and now it's like $700 or something.
You only needed one of them.
Yeah, I mean, I don't know, though.
I think that AI might come out with new use cases for crypto that no one's even thought about yet.
Like, there might become the ability to like, who knows?
You think about like the compute, maybe pay for it with Bitcoin somehow.
But you have to think there would be some new utility of the crypto somehow, some way with AI maybe.
yeah i mean it's out there for sure all right before we get completely nerdy and put everybody
Yeah, I mean, it's out there for sure.
to sleep with nerd talk i'm gonna say hello to nico
what's up brother so long man i know i've seen you requesting my spaces usually when i'm closing
them down but i'm really glad to hear your voice, man.
He's currently in the bath.
But no, we're doing well.
My sleeping pattern has changed a little bit since we've moved because now I have to get
up a lot earlier to get up to school.
So, yeah, no, it's changed a bit.
So I kind of figured I'd come in at the end of your spaces.
And I also just want to congratulate Skupe
for getting this platform up and going.
It's been something which a lot of us
who started out with you have been anticipating
Big kudos to you congratulations
for getting it off beta and onto public um i wish you all the success um little man is also on your
platform uh he's got actually two clabs minted on your platform um one guys owns and the other one is minted as an open edition so um if anyone is
into naughty robots definitely go check it out um but not otherwise be here we're doing our thing
building out um got a lot of stuff which is in the works and yeah developing his ip um something
which i will never stop doing.
I will keep on pushing my little guy's art out there for everyone to see.
I mean, he has honestly just keeps on going from strength to strength
It's like an unstoppable little 10-year-old force
with a super proud dad who will be his biggest fan forever ever how's the hot sauce doing
dude it's actually doing really well surprisingly i'm blown away by the response that we received so
no it's doing really well um i think we've sold close to 400 bottles already. So, no, it's doing well.
We are doing our first donation off that to autismresearch.org.
And then we'll do another donation
to St. Jude's again as well.
So, no, it's actually, it's doing really well.
I've received really good feedback.
Apparently it does not burn.
It's kid-friendly. That was the whole idea. So, Apparently, it does not burn. It's kid-friendly.
Like I said, better than expected.
You have to send me a message and where I can find it
because I definitely want to try it out.
I will definitely hit you up on Telegram.
I'll send you the official page where you can actually go and buy it.
And FYI, we do accept crypto payments.
It would not be a free, friendly service if we didn't.
Let's go. The best way to buy ingredients.
Let's go. You and crypto.
So good to hear your voice, man.
You've been around forever,
You've been around forever, Nico.
You've been around for how many years?
No, bro. You have to raise your game, yeah.
I have been a little rusty.
It's been a while since we've talked, to be honest.
So, you know, I know you've been grinding for many years now on different blockchains,
You're one of the hardest workers in the whole space.
So, you know, the truth is it says only Caden on the screen and you have to click it.
So I was like, is it fucking Caden?
Yeah, man, you're an absolute legend. You've been working super fucking kaden no it's nico um yeah man you're an absolute legend you've been working super hard i know it's a grind it's not easy it's getting
older uh is he still passionate about it does he still love it uh dude he has not stopped um he is
actually just my kiddo is like a energizer bunny he just goes um no he's not stopped he's still super passionate
about it he's actually created some mind-blowing stuff um over the last years since the last time
we've actually spoken um he's still into his robots uh they are doing phenomenally well um
you mentioned avX earlier on.
We are big AVAX supporters over here.
One of his most successful collections actually launched on AVAX last year.
It was 1,500 piece collection, minted out underneath three hours.
And I think secondary, at one point, depending on AVAX price,
sat close to a million dollars in turnover on secondary.
So he's still doing his thing.
He's creating. He's actually created all new gamified collection,
which is a build and burn, which will be live shortly.
Dad just needs to finish scanning all the stuff
because, unfortunately, he does physical stuff.
And it's a lot of work scanning all the paintings
and starting getting all of it together.
But no, he's still doing his thing.
In fact, he's grown more and more passionate about it
It's become a lot more than just a communication tool for him.
It's now how he expresses himself.
He does literally so much.
It's mind-blowing to see how far he's come.
And it's awesome that you put so much energy into it to help him.
So congratulations on the success.
You said you did a million dollars in secondary billing.
Dude, listen, I'm a firm believer anyone can do it.
It just takes a very, very hard work ethic.
I mean, like you would know, I mean, you pull the launch in your own platform,
it's doing super well. There's phenomenal volume
on it. I think it's probably doing almost to
where Object was doing when it was really doing well
and i think it will surpass object most likely um but no listen anyone can do it you just need to be
willing to actually put in that work that's the thing the key is work it's hard work always
pays off it's as simple as that well yeah the work is the hardest part of it all right like
the drive to wake up and want to do it
you know that's there's something to that you know i like a lot of people are sitting comfortable a
lot of the marketplaces and platforms are very comfortable and the nft space has not evolved
in a couple of years now so you know that's what drives me is like this this space is ripe for
innovation there's so many things that we should be able to do that we can't do, and we're going to keep doing that. And it's an honor to have you, Hayden. I mean, Nico,
Jesus Christ. I called you Hayden with a Y. My brain is destroyed. You know what, your
name messes me up because I click it. I click it, and then it says Christie's because you're
what? Christie's auctioning?ing yeah dude the little man is actually
his second auction is now coming up with christie's um he's curated by christie's made possible by job
i mean there's no other way about it but no it was mind-blowing he had his first auction
last year december um all the funds went towards st jude um so now he's he's an official curated
christy's artist he's doing his thing like i said i mean um he's just not stopped he's
keeps on going going and i will keep on showing off my little one to literally everyone who's
willing to listen well that, that's dope.
And it's an honor to have you.
I'm going to talk to a couple more people
I know the food master you were requesting up here, Lizzie.
And also, Max Meyer, I know you dropped a collection today.
If you want to pin that up, man, pin it up.
Feel free to pin that up.
And guys, look through the pinned tweets.
Max has been pinning up everyone's response
on all the art tweets, all the drop your art tweets so look through them if you
collect anything let us know um but yeah what's up the food master hello hello Timmy hello Charles
oh I couldn't miss uh from this space uh I uh I'm so happy for Scurpee that is launching.
We know each other since very long time, since when? 2022? 2021?
I was in the old Scurpee.
In this one, I am not yet able to be so active as I want because it's not that I'm not working, I have minted something from here to there but nothing
nothing significant so yeah I I want to to do more I I just love this social. I was able to follow all the people who were following me because I had more than 100 followers and I wasn't followed back.
I follow all the people back, all the friends. I know that they are supporting me every day and they are saying they are there for me every day.
I have a lot of people having the good words for me and I appreciate this a lot.
And I will do all my best to be back at 100%.
Yeah, very very very soon so yeah congratulations again and
well thank you food master and thank you for obviously using scurpee and being super involved
i know you said you've been around away a bit, but solve this stuff in real life.
So, you know, always get situated in real life.
So handle that stuff in real life,
and we're always, you know,
you'll be able to jump in a space anytime.
Chaz has them every night, this guy.
Even the 30-plus ones I see.
So Foodmaster, thank you for using Skirpy.
Thank you for being here.
I know it's a Friday, and you guys could probably be doing a lot of other things.
So thank you for obviously spending the time where you live.
Thank you for obviously spending the time where you live.
And even hopping in here for a minute.
I know you could be doing a lot of things right now, Food Master.
You're in Rome, Italy in my Twitter space right now.
Yeah, I'm sorry because, you know, usually I'm not so, maybe I seem, I don't know, lazy or without will to do anything because I'm speaking like that. But yeah, I had some really hard, not very hard, but yeah,
like unmotivating, you know, issues.
So I'm trying to do all my best to to pass through all these moments and I'm I'm working
each day I didn't stop to work to produce a lot of AI I created.
I'm doing, I don't know if it's a new style,
but yeah, I created something new in the past months.
And I have loads of stuff to mint. I have only to decide where it's better to mint and how also at, I'm having a Rome gallery where we had a beautiful
activity and I'm exhibiting some of my painting, not painting, some of my
photography there and I have them for sale. So I'm not totally inactive.
But let's say I'm not 100% of my power,
Well, stay hungry, Food Master.
Yeah, I'm doing my best to be 100% like I always was.
Yeah, life never put me down.
Yeah. it'll get better it'll only get better yeah yeah yeah I yeah I'm looking forward to to be able to
make more you know to to make more friends to to be able to know better because I there are a lot
of artists I don't know well or I I don't have yet a good relationship because I didn't have time to look well to their art. It was not an ugly thing, but a nice experience that till last year I collected loads of stuff.
I really collected a lot, especially on Tezos, and this year I'm not able to collect it anymore. to think to other primary important things.
And yeah, I hope to be able to make a reserve again and start to collect.
But collecting was really an amazing experience
because it helped me to get more closer, you know, with a lot of artists.
I organized an exhibition in December in Rome, an IRL exhibition,
and we did very well with the collection of objects on Tezos.
We sold a lot of works and I want to now I want to
reactivate that I don't know if it will be another collection or will mean yes
I'm trying to do my best to be active yes in the in the limits of my uh possibilities now but uh i need this
uh i need the connection with the people you know is the is the thing that i i miss uh more than
everything because i i wasn't able to be connected like um like i was before but uh yeah I think we'll come back. I am optimistic.
Well, come hungry and just, you know, be active,
comment on people's stuff.
If you sound like you want to be here, it goes a long way.
So just sound like you want to be here and that'll go a long way.
Yes, I was always here from march 2021 i never left even if i i had
ups and downs as everyone has but i never left the space and this is already a very important thing
for me i don't know for others but for me it's very important yeah absolutely but if you need to take a couple weeks
or a month or two months it's all right don't worry yeah so um that's it congress again and
i'm with you i'm trying to to build uh every day bit by bit and I promise you I will meet other on scurpee
okay thank you so much congrats again thank you all right guys i have to go to the doctor at one so
last speaker our lizzie what's going on lizzie i'm at the doctor standing outside like a weirdo
you're right who starts an nfc marketplace right i'm a little bit of a weirdo. What's up, Lizzie? Hi, dear Timmy. Hi, Chess. Hi, everyone, my dear friends.
Today is a mementos day, beautiful day.
Congratulations on the public opening for all.
When I first came to the platform and I did not understand anything at all. Timmy patiently helped, supported
and inspired me. His attention and participation made me feel part of something important and new.
open in my browser, when I hear that sound and I frantically start looking for the Scurpy tab, I always have it open.
I remember Timmy said that you should experiment on Skirpy.
Maybe try new styles or new tools to create art.
I have always painted with oil and watercolors paints.
But a couple of days ago I started to paint with gouache.
thank you so much. Thank you to everyone who supports me. I'm not a by their works and try to be part of this amazing community.
I wish Scorpio a rapid grow and let's grow together.
Thank you for your attention.
I love your enthusiasm for obviously just you just sound like such a lovely person.
So thank you for everything, Lizzie.
And congratulations on almost being sold out.
I love that piece you created.
It's just beautiful piece.
Put it in the art spotlight and well deserved.
And I love the script. I love when they come with the script, Chaz.
You know, Lizzie's English is getting really strong.
And it's good that she does profit before she comes in.
And she's doing an amazing job at speaking English.
Lizzie, great, great job.
I love you very much. Thank you so much yes i was so tired um
