Yo, yo, yo, GM, GM, the first GM and Taco Tee Tuesday of 2024.
Happy New Year, everybody.
Hope everyone had a great weekend.
Hope everyone stayed safe.
Hope some of you guys made a bag.
There's a lot of crazy coins going.
They're going bananas.
There's this used car.
I don't even understand what happened, but it's going crazy.
What a time to be alive.
Don't really understand anything anymore, but I'm here for it.
Totally did not just wake up 20 minutes ago.
That totally didn't happen.
If I sound like that, I don't know what you're talking about.
I definitely can't tell.
You sound totally normal, like very normal.
Yeah, totally.
I feel it.
How are you?
Well, today, honestly, I'm feeling pretty good.
Like, this weekend was really nice.
Happy New Year to everybody.
I hope you all had a wonderful New Year's Eve.
I actually stayed up till midnight.
And it was pretty good.
Wait, did I run?
I can't hear Ash.
Okay, hold on.
Let me come back.
All right.
Pretty sure she'll be coming right back.
Hope everyone out here is having a good week, a good day.
Yeah, it's a crazy time right now, but it's awesome.
I'm really excited for this year.
I'm really excited for 2024.
Got a lot of big things coming.
It's going to be dope.
All right, round two.
How are we doing, Ash?
Can't you hear me?
Yeah, I think my Wi-Fi, like, cut out real quick, and it did that thing where it just,
like, blanks the whole panel.
So, shout out to Twitter.
That was so annoying.
But I missed what you were saying.
I'm sorry.
Oh, it's okay.
I was just saying, like, Happy New Year to everyone.
I hope you all had a fantastic New Year's Eve.
I stayed up till midnight, actually.
You know, I usually stay up till midnight, but, you know, like, this year I was really struggling.
So, I stayed, I pretty much stayed indoors.
I actually, for the first time in my life, I don't know why we decided to go play cricket
for our New Year's Eve, you know, like, thing that we did, like, before, you know, there
was, like, this cricket batting cage that came, like, to our town, and so we were like,
oh, this is really random.
Let's play it.
I've never played cricket before in my life, and I haven't played baseball in COD forever
for, God, nearly a decade, probably.
So, I came in there with very low expectations.
I hit five Sixers, which, for those of you that have never played cricket, a Sixer is the
highest points that you can get.
So, I was pretty, I was pretty good at it, but everybody else on my, you know, in my party
was not as good as me.
So, you know, I don't know if you've ever, like, been good at something, and then all
the people around you are really bad at it, and then you're like, you know, you don't
want to gloat, but you little, you kind of do.
So, you're like, yeah, fuck you.
But also, like, sorry, you know, like, I can teach you how to play.
I don't know.
It's one of those ridiculous things.
But, yeah, so that was my New Year's Eve.
Also, you know, I feel like everybody and their mother did this, but got some charcuterie.
That was my food of choice, because I'm obsessed with it.
My mom got me a new charcuterie board for Christmas.
One of those cheesy ones that have the married couple's name in their wedding year, which
I love, because I'm very basic like that.
So, yeah, that was my New Year's Eve.
What'd you do?
That sounds awesome.
Also, nice pun right there with the cheesy board for charcuterie, because you put cheese
Oh, I'm so glad you caught that.
That was a good...
Okay, hold on.
We're going to have to talk about the cricket thing real quick.
Like, first of all, what?
Second of all, what again?
Okay, so everyone's always like, oh, cricket's like the most popular sport in the world, and
like all this stuff.
And I'm like, I've literally never even seen it on TV before.
Obviously, I guess it is, like according to like how many people watch it.
But, yeah, that always throws me off.
I've always wanted to play, because like I played baseball like my whole life, and I
thought I think it'd be fun.
Um, but, so like, does it, is it like, you know how like when you go to a baseball batting
cage, like there's like a pitching machine for it?
It's very similar.
Like, very, very similar.
So, basically, when you go in there, it's very same concept as baseball with a batting
Um, you go in there, and you have like several different options for like the paddles you
can use to bat with, basically.
So, I chose like a mid-size, because I'm pretty weak, so, or else like I would have
chose like bigger ones.
Um, and so, there's like different levels that you can have them pitch to you.
So, um, what they do when they pitch, usually there's like a bounce.
So, that throws a lot of people off, because in baseball it's just a pitch, and you hit it.
Um, with cricket, there's like a little bit of a bounce.
So, you gotta time the bounce, and then hit it.
Um, and then there's different spots that you hit.
So, in baseball, you can just hit it.
Oops, somebody called me.
So, with baseball, you can just hit it, and there's no specific like points.
But in cricket, you have different points.
So, like in some areas, you know, you get three points.
In some, you get four.
Or in some, you get like the highest ones that you can get is Sixers.
So, yeah, it's like the highest point of, you know, whatever.
So, that's kind of like the main difference, or at least the way I understand it.
Okay, cool.
It's, it does look really fun.
I was always the guy who chased like the really low, like pitches.
Like if someone threw me a curveball in the dirt, I was swinging almost every time.
So, like, I feel like I'm, I was made for cricket.
Like, bounce that ball.
I'm going to try and hit it.
So, I do want to give that a shot.
I had no idea that was even like coming over here.
So, I live, like, I literally live within 100 feet of like a baseball batting cage.
So, I'm going to have to put in a request for like one lane.
It's so fun.
Like, I had a lot of fun.
You just got to really get used to the bounce.
The bounce throws so many people off.
Yeah, I'm down with the bounce for sure.
Yeah, I'm super down.
That's usually like the way you were talking about it.
Like, that's me every time I go to the batting cage, I feel like.
Like, everyone always like struggles and like can't put the bat on the ball.
And I'm in there like, I'll like hit it once right-handed and then I'll switch like the other side of the, of the plate and hit it left.
I just like have fun in there.
Um, I always feel bad because most people are just like swinging for their life and just like not hitting anything.
Um, but it really do be like that.
But yeah, I'm, I'm honestly, dude, I'm so tired.
Like, I went out both nights.
I went to this rave called Forever Midnight, um, at the Los Angeles Convention Center, which is like, I didn't even know they did stuff there.
Um, and it was fucking amazing.
Like, it was so fun.
Um, it was such a good time.
Like, we had like a nice little squad of like, probably like 20 people.
And it was, it was a really good time.
Like, saw like Fisher, Green Velvet, um, Solomon.
Yeah, it was, it was Eric Pryde's.
Like, it was crazy.
It was, uh, it was nutty bananas for sure.
Um, but, but when that happens, like I ended up going out way later than I'm used to.
And since I've been back from, from Europe, like I've been pretty much like a 65-year-old man, it feels like.
Um, so I had to go out until like 3 a.m. on Saturday.
And then ran it back again and even later for New Year's Eve day.
Um, so yeah, that was interesting.
I think, I think I ended up getting home at like 5.15 a.m. the next day.
Oh, that makes me feel so boring, dude.
Like, I think once you get married, um, you're surrounded by other married friends.
And you just like, you just like become those people that don't stay out past one and then go to sleep early.
And, you know, that, that's where my life is right now.
The thing is, is I thought that would happen.
So like the last relationship I had, I thought that would happen.
But she was crazier than me.
And so we would go out until like 6 or 7 a.m.
And then she would never want to leave the afters.
And I was like, dude, we have to go.
Like, it's going to shut down.
Dude, I swear, the only time that happened, like the 1 a.m. thing, it didn't happen until I got married.
I swear, like me and him used to stay up until 7 a.m. sometimes.
Like, like we would be, you know, now, it's so crazy.
I don't know what it is.
Maybe it's like a mental thing.
Honestly, maybe, yeah, or maybe like something happens in the universe.
Like once you, once you do that, it's just like, boom, you have to go to sleep like way earlier or something.
It's like, it's like a thing.
Like my dad said before I got married, he said, you know, life is going to change in so many ways for you.
And when you get married and you're not even going to know until it happens.
And I'm like, yeah, right.
You know, it's only going to change like a piece of paper.
Or, but it really, like everything changes so weird.
It's like the weirdest thing.
And I can't even explain it to you.
It's just small things.
Yeah, that's awesome, though.
That's awesome.
Shout out to the universe for aging people instantly.
Or I don't even know what that would be.
Just like putting guidelines on your life.
Like right when you, right when you, right when that happens or when you get married.
But Rissa, thank you for coming up.
I appreciate it.
Happy New Year's.
How was your weekend?
How have you been?
Hey, thanks for having me.
It was okay.
I just stayed home, watched it on TV as usual.
I'm kind of a party pooper.
Hey, party poopers are fun.
I kind of, honestly, a part of me really wishes that's what I did.
Yeah, I don't know.
I just, I don't see the sense in going out.
But really, I don't, I've never went out on New Year's Eve, never went out on any major holiday like that.
It's just too much trouble in my eyes.
I don't know.
Too many drunk people, man.
Like, like, I remember I went out and almost got hit by a drunk driver on New Year's Eve.
And the traffic is god awful too.
Like going, like I live close to downtown Dallas.
And the traffic is just a nightmare, dude.
It's like, so fucked.
Yeah, see, that's one of the major reasons why I don't want to go out.
Plus, I just, I hate being around a bunch of drunk people.
I really do.
Yeah, yeah, I feel that for sure.
I totally wasn't one of those people for two nights.
Nope, not me.
Never, nope.
No disrespect here.
I'm just kidding.
No, I know.
I mean, just when people get stupid, you know, it just irritates me.
Now, thankfully, like, so I, and this is going to sound maybe like just weird, but I always feel like I get those vibes a lot at, like, at the bar.
But when I go to, like, a rave, like, the vibes are always so good.
Everyone's always, like, so happy.
And, yeah, you just, like, you find, like, your pocket of people, I feel like, every time at these kind of events.
And then you just, like, everyone just, like, chills and vibes and kind of has a good time.
So I thankfully found, like, a really good pocket.
And, yeah, it was wild.
Like, it was, it was super, super wild.
But, yeah, what's been, what's been going on?
I feel like I, whenever I miss, like, these 48-hour swings, like, I know I miss a lot of opportunities when it comes to, like, making some money, maybe, like, trading a coin.
Ash, did, like, did you get into anything crypto-wise over the weekend?
You know, not, not so much.
I was kind of off my phone.
I missed the Steamboat Willie.
We had AJT on last night, the guy that is the co-founder of Truth.
And he did the Steamboat Willie at midnight New Year's Eve.
I was so sad that I missed that.
So that was, like, one recent play.
And supposedly there's, like, a token coming out associated with it.
So I would say.
Steamboat Willie?
Is that what I'm hearing?
Yeah, Steamboat Willie.
I cannot believe you haven't heard this yet.
So Steamboat Willie yesterday or midnight New Year's Day became, like, public domain.
So, like, you can now use it for whatever you want.
You know, like, it's, you know, it's pretty much, like, open season.
So the guy, AJT, he ended up at right at midnight, minted this project.
Sorry, I'm making lunch if you hear a bunch of beeping in the background.
So he mints this thing, it mints out, and then it went from, like, a $2 mint to, like,
God, it's, like, I don't even know how much it's worth.
It's, like, half an eighth, I think, now or something.
So it was, like, pretty successful.
And there was, like, rumors of a token.
I'm not super certain of that.
I don't want to, like, misconstrue anything.
So that I have to do a little bit of digging.
So that was one exciting thing that happened.
And Gordon Garner is buying in a tease again.
He's buying kind of a mix of Solana and Ethereum in a tease.
He bought for Ghana, and it went up immediately by 3Soul.
So that was pretty cool.
That was pretty cool.
You know, I don't know.
I'm sure some of y'all are familiar if you're on Solana, you know, if you're in the space.
You know, Volley from Magic Eden put out a list of 50 upcoming projects.
One of them I had pre-sale to, you know, the Undeads Project.
That one I've got a big eye on.
Super lucky.
So super excited.
I would definitely check out that list.
Try to get some white lists.
Right now, I haven't really been making a lot of plays.
Like, yesterday was a claim for something called less fees in gas.
The ticker is LFG, which is a great ticker, honestly.
And it's on the Solana blockchain.
And basically, what you do to claim it is you go on their website, and you can claim how much, like, basically the tokens that equivalent to how much you lost in gas fees when you were on Ethereum.
So for me, I found out, well, I kind of knew this already, but I found out officially that I spent over $50,000 in Ethereum gas fees.
It just, you know, makes you feel great about the decisions that I made.
You know, I thought I was one of the people that paid the least amount of gas because I timed it out pretty right.
But that's so not true.
I don't know.
I'm feeling pretty bad about that right now.
So checked my allocation.
It's not worth very much right now, but I onboarded a lot of ETH users to Solana, so that was really good.
Yeah, I don't really have any other updates, to be honest, if anyone wants to come up.
I know Gato's here.
Maybe Gato knows a little bit more news.
I'm putting a lot of pressure on you, dude.
What up, Queens and my King?
What is happening?
Dude, I don't know.
There's no news right now.
Like, honestly, like, I'm keeping it pretty low-key.
I'm just surfing all the discords for those free mints and trying to get whitelist for literally everything.
Because, yeah, I think, like, things are definitely going to cook.
Like, I would say probably, like, end of January, I'm thinking.
It'll get back to more NFT-centric, depending on how that Jupiter airdrop goes, for sure.
Um, yeah, but I'm just trying to mint whatever I can right now.
Yeah, that's wild, though.
Um, I know that undead one, I definitely want to try and get.
That one seems hard as hell, though.
Gato, you get that for having a noble?
And I think cats, um, which is a pretty cheap entry.
So, I mean...
And they just partnered with the D-Gods, like, the 10.
So, if you have, like, if you're in D-Gods X, like, with 10 D-Gods, you can probably get one.
Damn, well, either, I guess, treats, the options are either buy a cat or sweep 10 D-Gods.
So, options yours, King.
Dude, I can't even buy 0.1 D-Gods, dude.
What the heck?
Put that on me.
That was correct.
Actually, you know what the other one is, though?
Other than Crypto Undead, I think is going to really cook, is Joopy Cats.
It's, like, I don't know, there's some cats, I'll pin it up to all of a sudden, but it's, like, some cats, they're, like, talking about Jupiter.
I think it's going to be, like, the perfect time around, like, that Jupiter drop.
Oh, dude, I agree.
It's going to be, Joopy Drop is the fourth week of January, right?
It's sounding like something like that.
I think just, like, the fact that they're, like, called Joopy Cats or whatever is just, like, the biggest buzzword ever.
And that's definitely going to cook.
Like, very bullish, because cats are in right now.
Yeah, I got, like, a Joopy Wary Token 2022 dropped to my wallet yesterday, and honestly, it cooked.
Like, when I first saw it, it was, like, 47K market cap.
That thing ran to, like, 1 milli.
I was like, huh?
It's not even...
It's funny, dude.
It's really funny.
But it's also Token 22, so people don't even know, like, what to do with it.
Did you hold it?
I sold a quarter of it, like, at the top.
And now I'm just going to hold the rest, because I think it actually has, like, room to run.
I'm seeing people talk about it, so F it, dude.
I got it for...
Dude, honestly, so it's because of Jakey.
Jakey, like...
Jakey airdropped a bunch of, like, of his selfies to people on Soul.
I got a bunch of stuff from him.
I got one of his selfies.
Yeah, so you have the Jupyuary airdrop in your wallet, too.
And that's the one that pumps you.
You have to go to Fluxbeam to, like...
Oh, no way.
How much is it?
I don't know what it's at right now.
But yesterday, at, like, the top, it was just, like, 50 bucks or something.
Um, but still, like, free 50 bucks.
Plus, we got Draco.
I don't know if you saw Draco, but, like...
Oh, dude, I saw that.
Yeah, I think we got, like, 10 million Draco for just for holding the Jakey selfie.
So, shout out to Jakey.
Um, that brought...
Like, we got a lot from him so far.
Like, I didn't know he was going to, like, cook like this for us, to be honest.
I was just like, Aku, I'm going to hold this, because I love him.
Uh, he's, like, genuinely...
Genuinely one of the nicest people.
Like, every time you see him, like, he always, like, makes a...
To, like, say hello.
He's just, like, super nice.
And, like, I was just like, okay, cool.
I got one of the homies, like, JPEGs.
And then, yeah, we've got, like, six airdrops.
And I'm like, damn, this dude is, like, putting in the work.
Like, that's crazy.
Shout out to him, though.
And shout out to all these drops.
I mean, we got to talk about it, right?
We got to talk about this 2001 gently used car.
Have you seen Fast Steady's videos?
I mean, you have to have seen them by now.
Yeah, yeah.
Of course.
Like, of course.
Like, even throughout, like, all the chaos of my weekend, I was, like, seeing those videos.
And I was dying.
Like, when Mark...
When Mark pulled up and was, like, yo, I'm interviewing a gently used Honda Civic.
And it's, like, him with, like, his headphones on, holding the mic.
And, like, it's just so...
They're really, like...
I almost feel like, honestly, these dudes are, like, carrying that meme, like, super heavy right now.
And shout out to him.
I feel like I've seen, like, four people buy 2001 used Honda Civics right now, which is insane.
But, yeah, dude, I know one of our friends, like, did really well on it.
Pretty sure it hit, like, over three cents, which is, like, insane.
I got out, like, I had a little bit of it, like, a couple...
Maybe, like, last week, right?
And then I saw it hit, like, one cent five.
And I was, like, I'm out, dude.
Like, this is...
Dude, I saw it so early.
And I was, like, how can you make a meme out of a gently used Toyota Camry?
Or a Honda Civic, I mean.
And I was, like, dude, this is...
Of course, like, I don't have the vision, man.
I feel like I, after all these years in crypto, I still don't have the vision.
Because I'm, like, dude, like, how?
How am I missing out on things that, like, I hear about it early?
And I'm, like, ah, you know, like, Goblin Town.
Goblin Town, before it pumped, I, you know, heard about it at 0.02, then at 0.2.
And I was, like, oh, you know, it's not going to pump.
And then, of course, it does, dude.
I'm so bad at this.
Goblin Town was a very interesting time.
And, like, I don't know.
So, that was, like, me, like, just joining, like, Twitter Spaces.
And I would be, like, oh, what's this one about?
And it would, like, I would join it.
And it was just, like, insane noises.
Like, I didn't know what was going on.
And, yeah, they were just, like, ripping.
So, like, yeah, that's crazy.
0.02, that's...
Man, I feel like...
I mean, everyone up here probably has their moments, right?
Like, where you miss, like, a bag just because of, like, oh, no, that's not going to run.
And I feel like now, it's, like, because I usually, like, that's my instincts.
And, like, there's no instincts or rationale here.
So, like, if I ever have instincts now, I just throw money in at it.
Like, at the opposite.
I'm like, oh, don't do this.
And I'm like, that means I should buy it.
Like, I have to reverse copy trade my own instincts, which is, like, insane.
But it's been working because I did that with 2001, the Honda Civic last week.
I was like, this is dumb.
And then, boom, I threw money at it.
And, like, it's effective.
So, I think, like, that's definitely a lesson.
But, yeah, I'm like...
I think mints are going to cook, too.
Like, I think end of January, like, we're going to see some great stuff.
I think maybe even, like, before this month just, like, might be, like, a fun month.
But I'm excited for Jupe.
And shout-out to Chris down there, man.
Like, I'm so Chris.
Like, his collection is doing great right now.
Getting some much-deserved attention.
I know he launched, like, Evolve, I believe.
So, shout-out to him.
He's an absolute legend.
And I'm happy to see him getting some success.
That's dope.
Um, come on up here if you guys want to come chill.
I see a lot of homies in here.
Poco, Clouds, Cardboard.
Hope you guys are all having...
Just name everyone and tell them to get their asses up here.
I was going to.
Thyme, Crispy, Blue.
I'm just kidding.
I'm not going to do that.
But I appreciate all you guys for pulling up and hanging.
Man, it's wild.
We're in 2024.
Like, what?
It really feels crazy that we're already in this new year.
Like, I just...
It's still unreal.
Although, I was writing 2024 on my, like, date sheet, like, way before 2024.
So, I don't know.
I'm just mentally ready.
Dude, I'm like...
I feel like this is going to be, like, one of the best years in crypto.
Like, maybe I have, like, a crazy amount of hope in.
But, you know, this really gives me...
Like, this era reminds me of when I first was getting into crypto and in a tease, like, in January of 2021.
And I had so much euphoria.
And I was like, oh, my God.
There's so much opportunity.
Because Doge had gone to a penny.
And I had bought it, like, 0.003.
Like, years, years before.
And I wasn't even into crypto back then.
But my friend was like, oh, my gosh.
There's a Dogecoin.
And I was like, oh, my God.
I love that meme.
I'm just going to buy, you know, a couple hundred of it.
You know, no big deal or whatever.
And then years later, I see that I'm, like, doing very well on it.
And I'm like, oh, my God.
Like, $200 became thousands of dollars.
Like, and, you know, now I'm like, damn.
Like, I'm literally...
I feel like every day I wake up and no matter how late I feel to an opportunity, there's always an opportunity to make money.
And that is bull market fucking vibes, dude.
Like, that's how it was.
And I feel like that's how it's becoming again.
And, man, I am just curious to see what will lead it.
Because usually Bitcoin will lead a bull market.
But honestly, a little part of me, maybe I'm, like, a little crazy for thinking this.
But part of me wonders if Solana isn't going to be the one that leads it.
Either Solana or Ethereum.
But, you know, could even be a sneaker with the ordinals leading it.
So, you know, like, instead of just the Bitcoin crypto coin, just, like, Bitcoin ordinals.
Because ordinals are having a really good moment right now.
Like, I feel like there's a lot of interest back into it.
Because a couple months ago, honestly, I've even said this publicly.
I wasn't very bullish on ordinals for a while.
They just kind of felt like they died out for a while.
And there wasn't much interest.
And now it's vamped up.
And it changed my perspective.
So, I don't know.
It's just there's so many new things that are happening.
Because back in the day, 2021, even though, obviously, Solana was still around.
And there was NFTs and all that.
I feel like it was less, like, maybe in my wheelhouse.
So, like, I feel like I'm just seeing all these NFTs from all these different blockchains do really well.
There's new blockchains I never heard of.
I never heard of Say.
I still, I don't have any Say.
Which I feel really, really behind.
So, if somebody wants to recommend some good collections, you know, that would be fantastic.
But, yeah, I'm feeling very euphoric right now.
Yeah, the vibes are high.
The vibes are definitely high.
I think for Say, I'll shoot you over.
I know, like, one of the homies from Soul Sniper.
He was, like, making a list for, say, mints, I believe.
So, I'll try and find his tweet and shoot that over unto you.
He was, like, putting together a whole, like, comprehensive list.
I, as well, am, like, really behind on that curve.
And I at least got to get the wallet going and get some.
You know, if you have an Ethereum wallet, like, I have trust.
And it works as a Say wallet as well for me.
So, I don't know.
It worked very well.
Or at least what I've been kind of testing it on.
I know there's other particular Say wallets.
But I don't know.
I'd rather use something I know.
Dude, I'm already down bad.
2025 is my year for sure, though.
Wait, how are you?
What happened?
The year of the dragon, dude.
This shit burned me.
Did you buy Draco at the top or what?
Maybe, dude.
I don't know, bro.
My man saw the Charfoo tweet and thought he was early.
The top is not in yet, dude.
I put the Charfoo notice on.
I was ready, dude.
Interesting.
That was your mistake, dude.
Come on, dude.
What the fuck?
I don't take accountability for my losses.
Yeah, that's a good point.
Don't do that.
So, I had an Uber driver on my way to my homie's house for the rave.
And he was like, how was 2023 for you?
And I was like, yeah, it was pretty good.
And he was like, oh, wow.
Like, Saturn was in, like, retrograde all year or something.
So, like, if you escape that, like, good job.
And I was like, all right.
Like, cool.
No wonder the beginning of this year was a total shit show.
I was wondering.
And then he was, hope you're ready for 2024.
Like, Saturn's leaving.
And Jupiter's coming.
And I was like, no fucking shot.
He doesn't even know how early he is right now.
Like, he's literally talking about the Jupiter airdrop.
Like, he doesn't even fucking know.
It was so crazy.
And he's like, yeah, 2024, 2025.
Like, Jupiter's coming into the area.
And I was like, this guy's fucking on point.
Like, he's talking about, like, phase one, phase two, and phase three of the airdrops.
He's talking about the planet.
Why can you give everybody an MVP trophy, though, dude?
Listen, you're not special.
If you made it through 2023 in Saturn, Gatorade, like, you don't get anything for it, dude.
Oh, you do.
You get Jupiter in 2024, dude.
I mean, like, I was literally so true.
I was like, dude, this guy, I don't even think he knows anything about the bull market that's coming.
And about it being Jupiter right now.
But, man, I was like, it was so hard for me to keep it straight.
Like, I was struggling keeping it all together.
But, yeah, I was, like, really, really stoked about that.
I definitely thought that was a good, like, foreshadowing of the two years to come.
Yeah, just don't be saying Jupiter, like, in person or in an Uber, wherever you are, either.
All right, I won't.
I think I could have honestly said it to him, though, and he would have been like, oh, yeah, cool.
I get that.
And he wouldn't have known anything about the coin, but he would have been down.
He definitely wouldn't have kept it straight, though.
Wait, what?
I don't know.
Cardboard, welcome.
Happy Tuesday.
How are you doing, man?
Pretty good.
And yourself?
I'm chilling, dude.
I'm chilling.
How was your New Year's?
How are you doing?
What you up to?
New Year's was good.
Just quiet evening with my wife for dinner.
First year, I wasn't hungover in about 20 years on January 1.
So that was cool.
Shout out to Jupiter.
What's that?
It's a shout out to Jupiter coming into the retrograde.
There's also another airdrop that's supposed to be, you might have to claim it.
It's Dimension with a Y.
And I think you get it for using Wormhole.
There's some collections that are getting it.
Madlabs, Pudgy Penguins.
I think it's a cross-chain deal.
So there's going to be some ETH wallets that also get it, and some other blockchains.
That's mainly why it came up.
Wait, wait, wait.
Dimension with a Y.
I can post their pinned tweet if you'd like.
Yeah, please.
I like the fact that projects and coins right now are doing like this.
We're allocating half for ETH and half for Sol.
I think it's a good idea to cross-pollinate and get that attention going in each ecosystem.
I saw that Crypto Undead as well, I believe, is doing that for their whitelist and stuff.
So yeah, I thought that was really cool.
I don't think we've seen that a lot.
People are actually taking a methodical approach to target both ecosystems that are trading NFTs.
So that's awesome.
Yeah, and I think this is not a shitcoin per se.
I didn't read into it too much, but it's more of a protocol.
And I think it's cross-chain protocol.
I'd have to read into it more.
I pinned it up top.
All right.
Cool, man.
Appreciate the alpha.
Dude, I'm pretty sure Solana actually passed ETH this month for like NFT volume.
First time in history.
Absolute ripping W.
I'd love to see it.
Ash, also RIP to your gas fees.
We didn't really like, we kind of just glossed over that.
Like, we, I don't know.
Yeah, it was a really painful chapter in my life.
And y'all just didn't even care.
Yeah, we're circling back to that for sure.
Not like, I just want to like say RIP to that.
I'm here for you.
Sorry for your loss.
We're going to have to make like a tombstone or something for all our Ethereum friends.
And like put the gas fees on.
That's crazy though.
I've only traded a little bit on there.
And obviously like, I think it's still like quite a bit.
But, those like wars that people were having like to mint stuff back in the day.
Or like when you hear those horror stories of people who was like, it was like their first mint ever.
And they didn't know about it.
And they were just like, alright, I'm just clicking this thing over and over again.
I don't really get why I'm not getting it.
And they were just like raising the gas.
Because I'm just like, man, that is like pain, you know?
But, you're here in this moment now.
Like, we all learned our lessons with this stuff.
And it's just wild.
It's wild to like, there was like a lull I feel like with gas fees for a little bit.
But like, I was trying to transfer out like 40 bucks.
And it cost like 40 bucks to transfer it.
And I was like, alright dude, I guess this is just going to stay over here.
It's just going to stay here for a while.
Like, what are we going to do about this?
Yeah, anyways though.
Clouds, what you up to, man?
What you been doing?
You got anything on your radar?
How have you been?
You got anything you're looking forward to in 2024?
Dude, I don't think you want to know my radar right now.
But, I'm chilling, bro.
I finally got to just chill, sit down.
After spending time with family.
And, you know, thinking of how to fucking execute this year already.
It's basically it, dude.
Dude, Solana's fucking going crazy.
So, I think I might have to jump into some of these NFTs before I'm too late.
But, I don't want to fumble into no, like, ordinary or anything yet.
Because I don't know shit.
Yeah, I feel like you've been on the sideline for a minute.
Kind of just chilling.
And, you're finally going to take that leap of faith and just, like, jump in?
Maybe you don't want to just dive in.
All right, cool.
I'm ready.
Let me know what you end up doing.
So, I will not buy that for sure.
But, yeah.
Happy New Year.
How's it going?
Happy New Year.
It's going good.
It's going good.
What am I looking forward to in 2024?
Kind of everything.
Low-key, I'm, like, overwhelmed.
But, also excited.
There's just so much potential in the space.
And, I don't know, I just was, like, really inspired by Art Basel and just meeting so many people and checking out their events and the merch and the brands.
And, yeah.
I mean, I definitely want to put out a lot more stuff myself and just, like, I don't know, work harder to be the very best.
I don't know.
Oh, that's awesome.
I didn't know you were at Basel.
Basel was such a fucking vibe this year.
It was so dope.
Last year was so...
It was still fun.
But, it was, like, I feel like because crypto was just in the absolute, like, shitty spot.
Like, no, everyone was, like, kind of pretending that they weren't even in crypto.
Unless you, like, knew everyone there.
But, like, if you're, like, talking to, like, people that were actually there for Basel, you didn't say anything about, like, having crypto involvement.
And, this year, everyone was just, like, yeah, I'm here for crypto.
Like, as well.
Like, let's fucking go.
Vibes were, like, super good.
So, I'd love to hear that.
I didn't even realize that, like, you killed it with, like, the branding and all that kind of stuff.
Like, your Pintui is fire.
So, like, shout out.
That's awesome.
Aw, thanks.
I'm, yeah, I don't know.
I'm working on being more visible, I guess.
I don't know.
It's, like, a confusing space, like, how you present yourself and, I don't know, partner with people and whatnot.
So, but, you know, sometimes we have to flail around and figure it out.
Yeah, it's a lot of flailing for sure over here, but it's a good way to get attention.
Just flail around, throw your hands in there, and just, yeah, people will come.
So, if you build it, they will come, for sure.
I don't know.
That was dumb.
But, yeah.
Time, anything on your radar?
Like, what you've been up to NFT, coin-wise?
Like, anything that you're, like, super hyped about in the coming month?
I don't know if there's anything.
I don't know.
There's so much happening right now.
I would consider myself cross-chained, so it's a little overwhelming just seeing everyone's ecosystem and learning about, like, it goes so deep, like, every single chain.
For some reason, I've been hearing a lot about SEI, so might do some research into that.
But, obviously, the Honda Civic, that thing, that's been a bop.
That's been really funny to watch.
But, yeah, other than that, just, I think, kind of, like, the standard top coins on all the chains, obviously, do a lot of volume and get a lot of attention.
So, but as far as, like, next month type fives, I don't know.
Just the SCI thing on my radar, I would say.
Okay, cool.
Thank you for that.
Yeah, I need to, I need to definitely check it out.
Like, I'm going to make it, I've been, like, such a salon at Maxie, I feel like, for, like, a year and a half.
And I've done, like, some ETH stuff and, like, some Bitcoin stuff.
But I'm going to, like, really make a point for 2024 and 2025 to, like, get out there and do more on other chains.
Like, it's really, like, my main thing.
But it's so hard because I feel like there's just, like, so many opportunities and, like, the vibes are just, like, so dope on Seoul.
But I also get stuck in my own echo chamber.
So, like, I just need to, like, get out there anyways.
And I think, like, like, Basil for me, like, I've met so many people from, like, ENS and, like, Kraken and, like, all this, like, all these different chains.
And I feel like it gave me, like, a lot of exposure to that side.
So, like, I definitely needed that.
And I'm excited to, like, yeah, just dive down that rabbit hole for sure.
Definitely recommend time if you have it.
Like, checking out Jupiter, seeing if, like, you are, like, eligible for that drop that's going down, I believe, like, end of this month.
I think that's going to be, like, a one that really cooks.
Maybe not, like, instantly, but it definitely will cook at some point.
So, yeah, shout out to that.
I think it's going to be dope.
A lot of opportunities for sure.
Ash, what are you feeling like?
What are you feeling like?
I know you said you're feeling, like, euphoric.
But, like, what's, like, the top thing that you're looking for?
Man, that's hard to say, honestly.
I guess, like, I've had a lot of good opportunities lately, just, like, on a personal note, you know, with a lot of different, like, contents and, you know, things like that.
And I feel, I feel like I'm just, I feel like I'm really going to come into my own, you know, like, like, I feel like the first year I was in crypto.
So, I was still, like, learning.
I was kind of erratic.
I had no idea what I was doing.
I was mainly focusing on shitposting.
Last, 2022 was, like, a year that I spent, like, really kind of learning more, making content for the first time.
You know, at the end of the year and starting to realize a lot of different things about people, myself, 2023, I did a shit ton of content.
I made some partnerships, did some pretty notable things, like, on a personal level.
And now, this year, I feel like I'm fully prepared for everything.
Like, I feel like I'm hitting on all levels.
And that's what I'm so excited about.
I mean, I don't mean to, like, brag or anything.
I don't really feel like it's, like, braggadocious or braggadocious or whatever.
But, I don't know.
I'm just excited, like, about another, like, fresh year to finally use all the things that I had built up over this time that I've learned about this space and put it to work.
Like, this is year three.
Like, today, literally, oh, I got to post about that.
Today is the third year that I have been in crypto.
And it is pretty, pretty awesome.
I think we lost treats here.
I was going to say, Ashley, you should brag away because you should be proud.
You're out here at all the events, like you said, pushing out a ton of content.
Like, don't, yeah, brag about yourself because I feel like I don't hear a lot about specifically what you do.
Obviously, you do content creation.
But there's so much more to that.
I know, like, the back end to all that is probably, like, goes super deep.
Seems like a common theme here.
But, no, yeah, I don't know.
You should do, like, a giant thread or, like, I don't know, try to post, like, maybe more behind the scenes of, like, oh, I had, like, five meetings today.
And this is how I manage things.
I don't know.
Just, I'm proud of you.
Kill it, girl.
Oh, my God.
I love you so much.
