All right, let's let tonight's performance be the best performance.
Yo, loving the green hearts, my guy.
Easy and crypto, my brudda.
We've come along the way to the end. Through the hard times in the middle. I have to celebrate you, baby.
I have to praise you like I should.
All right, all right, all right. whoops my back okay okay okay hold on
okay we're just gonna keep this growing
Let's Cheetos and Moji dance moves! I have to celebrate you, baby.
I have to praise you like I did.
I have to praise you like I did. Music video version. I have to praise you, baby, I have to praise you like I should All right, all right, all right.
I want to see who's doing the best emoji dance moves.
Easy and crypto, meta.tgm, dingus.
Please pay close attention to these tree gens, all right?
Whoever's doing the most, it's not just the most emojis, it's also style points.
We're taking style points.
If you're tapping with green hearts, if you're tapping to the beat, bonus style points, all right?
Meta, monthly, earth day, easy.
Let me know who's growing the hardest.
Who's doing the most and the best emoji dance moves?
Alright, alright, alright, alright. First we got a quick PSA. Quick PSA from the Gretas.
My message is that we'll be watching you.
This is all wrong. I shouldn'll be watching you. Oh, we're watching you. This is all wrong.
I should be back in school, on the other side of the ocean.
Yet, you all come to us young people for hope.
Repost the room to come up to the stage!
Back to engage to Winston DBT! All you can talk about is logic and politics of the entire economic growth.
How dare you come here saying that you're doing enough
when the politics and solutions needed are still nowhere in sight.
Right here, right now, is where we fall behind.
Right here, right now. Right here, right now. Right here, right now.
Let's go! Let's go! so Thank you. You think you'll hear us and that you understand the urgency.
No matter how sad and angry I am, I do not want to believe that.
Because if you really understood the situation and still kept on failing to act, then you would be evil, and that I just choose to believe.
How dare you pretend that this can be solved with just business as usual and some technical solutions.
There will not be any solutions or plans for some of this commandment of these figures there today.
Because these numbers are too uncomfortable, then you are
still not too much talking about to tell it like it is.
You are failing us, but the young people are starting to understand your betrayal.
We will not let you get away with this.
Right here, right now, is where we hold it now.
Right here, right now. Right here, right now. Right here, right now. so so Good morning, good morning, good morning, my tree gen fans.
Good morning! Good morning! my tree gen fam yo good morning yo yo yo yo yo

I think they're objectively wrong, bro
I'm joking. I'm joking. I'm joking. I saw some great dancing. I saw some great dancing Pixel on but you know if there's any answer other than me though, I think they're objectively wrong, bro
Great dancing. I saw some great dancing. You know what as you just said continue the green hearts I saw Ciprian bussing some moves there bro to be fair. That's my vote
But alright, I saw molecular get down with those style points
Ciprian had a lot of emojis. I did see the See now you thumbs it down. I saw you thumbs down during one of your dance moves, bro. That's like one of the worst
Oh, yeah, but you know, you gotta do the up and down like this
The Mr. Bean dance like just come on
Exactly, you gotta have a dad dancing
You're gonna be to that too
Okay, wait grow morning grow morning

That's well on the on the board. That's not me, okay?
He waits until I talk to him.
But, guys, real quick announcement before we announce the winner of this dance battle, okay?
Every single person who requests the mic is welcome to the stage.
This is an open book. You're all freaking welcome and we love you. We just have one little tiny request.
You've got to retweet that room fam. Okay. Bottom right. I even put it up at the top of the space
in our garden just for your convenience. If it's easier you all right once and if you're not doing that it's a bill L like you support Jimmy if
you love trees you're gonna be doing this chat okay so if you have reposted
in the bottom right okay and unite I'm checking your page here ain't got no
repost alright bro even quote tweeted all right okay great Okay, great. Great, great, great, great.
So that's the first thing, all right?
To come up, that's how you do it.
You just request and you repost.
And you're going to get up, okay?
I don't tend to end these spaces until we get to everyone.
Sometimes I'm here for like eight freaking hours.
But hopefully I'm starting at midnight right now.
Sometimes he's here for 60 hours, folks.
And Jimmy, let's be real.
You know, if you've been supporting tree gens up and down your wall,
and you've been supporting the community,
and you've got a cool profile picture,
let's be real, you're more likely to get up.
So support the tree gens.
Everyone's going to get up.
You're probably going to help quicker if you've got a cool profile.
Yo, I want all of you guys to get an amazing PFP.
Like, this ambassador PFP is going to be amazing.
It's their tree character plus TGN tokens.
But, like, some of y'all just started repping the Kingfisher's Media Access token,
which you got for filling out the interest form.
You get into the charm first when you try to join our ambassador program.
I love that you guys are just starting to rep that.
No one asked you to rep that.
I didn't even think that was, you know, a profile pic people would be repping, but-
And yeah, guys, if you have a .tgn in your display name, okay?
Let me, okay, we're going to get into this later, but yeah, there's some preferential
treatment. And also I'm doing my own due
diligence to support people who have got .TGN wallet address names and have it in their display
name. And by the way, you can win these in the loot boxes. No, you can't. My bad. That was before.
We're going to keep giving these out. Oh, actually, you know what? If you, okay, don't cross your fingers, all right?
Guarantee one by joining the ambassador program.
You get a .tgnft wallet address,
which guarantees you multiple airdrops,
but you get it, you know, even more over time
if you are, if you're representing the values on the TL.
Hey, Jimmy, just quickly,
I just want to say the back end.
Jimmy said to me, you know what?
Today, we want to get it moving.
We want to many people as possible. So Meta, with you know what today we want to get it moving more than many
people as possible so meta with all due respect we want to keep it moving so we are going to keep
it moving i ain't going to say too much today all i am going to do in the end i'm going to feedback
to you i love bro i actually love the banter i think we've had some of the most fun spaces that
we've ever done together like straight up we got to keep it moving as well. I get it bro. I get it
We gotta blend it we gotta blend it
But yeah, I just had like a couple complaints now people I I know how it is
But we're all passionate people we gotta get to the peeps and then we're gonna come back to the shenanigans I Yeah, man. You better lock in and grind up, baby. LZ, I see you.
Monthly, a day, I see you.
Jingles, GM, GM, GM to you, Wiltie.
You guys, yo, you know, if you are still down there and you want to talk, man,

You just got to repose the room.
You know, you got to like the room.
You got to comment on the room.
You got to bookmark the room, man, so you can send us to the algorithm.
Because, you know, it's for your own benefit too.
When you shield your project, when you talk on here,
and we are already like super, super supporting the algorithm, you know
They're gonna see you there too, man. So what the fuck are you doing? Get your shit together. Get everything tight. Let's fucking go
Grow grow grow is the is the word there
Evan Grom. Okay, hold up. Hold up. Hold up. Wait. Hold the phone, okay?
Hold up hold up wait hold the phone, okay
Yesterday, Gromunitree, you were in our spaces with a wizard as your PFP,
and you told me that you made a deal with Meta.TGN that you were going to rep.PFP
if he put .TGN in his name. I still see Meta.TGN in his name,
and what is going on with'm gonna lie trejan i'm gonna lie
i was literally as we speak looking in profile wondering about this situation you know what you
know what trejan you know how i am i'm not even pushy like you need to have a wizard or i'm happy
the only thing that's my problem is yo you ain't even repping a cool trim tree gens one bro
like fix that dp bro yeah we either it's a wizard or it's a tree gen whatever yellow yeah the side
whatever that art like pixel thing you got up now yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo
i gotta tell you this man you know i gotta tell you this because you need to hear this right now, man.
that, no, you are for the community, man.
You are for every fucking body.
That's why they call you the grow military, man.
And you just gotta centralize this, man.
You gotta make it feel everybody.
And I said, okay, I got i got the dice man let's keep the
fucking dice rolling man that's what you're saying right there baby jimmy and gro i'm we're actually
only playing because basically what it is yeah we've actually got some quite big news to announce
not gonna say it yet but i actually said myself to uh gro well he's got a different name but i
said to him listen bro i want you to work with each thing because i just love the energy however
you know if i wanted to you know jimmy i could be on the back and hey guys come
and work for me like a deal but i don't want to like be said i'm gonna help tree james i'm not
gonna post your people bro so i said to him listen bro i want you to have continue like a grimunia
account and you know when we do a wizard ting i'm gonna get you a wizard that's why he's got a green
wizard because he's like tree green wizard so then you can kind of add an also a personal account and to be honest bro even if i weren't gonna ask him to come and
do the things with wizards i already kind of i bet you agree with me jimmy he needs to have a name to
that energy bro like the groom you need great we know he represents that but i would love you to
have your own personal brand and you showed me i mean i saw what it is i think that's cool i actually
quite like i mean tell me see what you think today guys i think so it fits in one word quite a good name for this man would be energy
bro tree energy grow munitry community energy energy or with or with a tree with a tree with
a tree okay all right tree, with a tree.
Okay, wait, guys, we need to focus.
First of all, I need your nominations for the dance battle.
Okay, Gourmeta Tree, do you have a nomination?
No, I don't got a nominee right now because I got a million nominees. Easy has a nomination.
First, yeah, when you say, hey was taking notes first yeah when you when you when you say
hey easy watch the dance battle i get a pad and paper out and i start jotting down notes uh i know
i don't know i don't take exact amount of hearts but i do take notes and i am gonna first make some
honorable mention shout outs uh orion uhprian, Dingus, Young.
And then I'm going to give you my top two.
Yo, I thought molecular too.
Wait where did you dip up
We need a speech from now
Okay someone hit up Molecular
This app is hella ruggy bro
And then the second one you said Second place was True, true, true, true, true. Okay, okay. There's a new feature, by the way. Molecular no.
And then the second one you said, sorry?
Second place was Inborn Toin.
Inborn Toin with a tree gen, rocking a tree gen.
Oh, I'm born to win is that guy.
Okay, so I'm born to win. You win 42.0 TGN go I like that name too I just thought it was like
Cool like tribal name or something
I didn't see what it said
I didn't see what it said straight away
Hey gentlemen There is a lady on the stage.
Do you have any award speeches you want to give?
Anyone you want to thank?
Your supporters along the way that got you here to win the dance battle?
Well, I just wanted to start off by saying thank you
to everyone, especially Jimmy for hosting this space.
I mean, we wouldn't have a dance off without it, right?
So yes, thank you to Jimmy, Will of Web T
And I hope everybody's having a fantastic day.
And Jimmy, I thought of a new vocabulary word. I'll have to send it to you in a message, but yes. Thank you
You actually want to get these words in. You just don't let it leak on public here.
People can get some ideas.
Isn't it vocabulary tree? Vocabulary tree?
You can leak it. So here's the thing, Alright guys Opportunity is right here If you come up
Can you hear me right now Jimmy
Vocabularity Because there's a re at the end Isn't there Grogabularity okay is it not voc i've just been thinking isn't it vocabulary tree vocabulary tree
that you can fit both okay so just so you guys know um if you don't know but you got vote that's
growth so vote at the start it could it could be wait grow capulatory it's hard to say but i think
you can do that yeah but anyway anyway anyway yeah yeah no this is a good one because this is a good
teaching moment uh there are three criteria of the grocabulary, all right? One of them is does it rhyme, okay? Meaning one of the syllables of the word can be swapped out for grow
or tree, like liquid a tree or grow-tate instead of rotate. Basically, you're swapping a syllable,
making it rhyme. Okay, great. That's number one. Number two is does it slap? Meaning like does it just sound good? Like for some reason, like growtastic sounds good, but it doesn't rhyme, but it still works.
And then the third one is like can it grow the movement?
So like is it relevant to this?
Like not some like, you know, totally negative whatever, I guess, word.
Some things have been disqualified for that in the past.
So like is it meaningful? Could it grow the movement? And then does it slap
and does it rhyme? It's got to hit two or three. All right. Two out of three can't work for that.
All right. So, so, so molecular, are you sure you don't want to announce it? Are you afraid of
we're going to critique it? I have torn some down in the past. I'm like, no. But I'm sure it's fine.
Look, any attempt is good.
If you know it's fire, you should just share it.
And then you can message him on the back end.
You won't lose your points.
Yeah, you still get the points for that.
But do send me your wallet address regardless.
So I appreciate you for that.
Okay, guys. While you're down there and reposting to get up here on the stage, even if you're a listener, you got to max engage, not just in the bottom right, but actually with our
two other promotional posts.
See, we always make like three promotional posts for this.
Typically, it's an animation and then the OP.
And then there's the actual spaces post.
So what I've just done is I put all three of these, which each have competitions on them.
And each of those competitions are all the same.
And how do we know you've max engaged?
Because keep in mind, it's like repost bookmark.
No one can see who bookmarks what unless you've screenshot it
and then you drop the screenshot in the comments and then you get the final thing for a max engaging,
right? So you've got to go like repost bookmark screenshot, drop the screenshot. That's what we
mean when we say a max engagement. I broke it down in the steps there. So you can enter this
competition for another 100 DBT, which 25 different nft potential prizes okay um or uh you
can you can do that in the bottom right by max engaging uh and you can if you want to maximize
your chances uh keep doing that in the other uh other posts which we put up there at the tippity
top of the garden of the spaces all right so that's how you win super special
request super special request my my friend jimmy please uh can you throw the impact concert
um announcement tweety thingy up there in the garden so we can get him a thing on that
yes i i actually max engaged on i just checked i'm already max engaged on all the three that
are up there so grow might as well might as well throw the concert up that's gross we've got it
guys i can see we've got five requests as well you know just like a couple more can i just say i know
it's not just to get me followed by the way but i can see you're not following me a few of you so
if you're not following me you're probably not throwing the gramunity and you're not following
him and you're not following jimmy or me you don't Grimmunity. And if you're not following him and you're not following Jimmy or me, you don't have noties on for all of them.
He's mainly an L for you, because we're saving the world and making P out here.
So if you want to save the world, make P, come up here, show your stuff.
I'm even not going to talk much today so we can get around to all of you.
I mean, Jimmy's doing more than I'm joking, right?
But let's get around, innit?
Let's see what other people have to say.
I want to hear from Molecular, whatever.
I mean, new people, Monthly Earth Day.
Yo, wait, you said make what?
I'm asking you what you just said, bro.
I have no idea what I just said.
I was saying, I can't remember now, bro.
I already said it. I can't say it again, bro.
Okay, yeah, definitely follow,
I mean, the speaker panel. Definitely. Definitely follow. I mean,
I remember I said the people in requests aren't even following me.
So they're probably not following your community.
So if they want to speak,
I was saying you need to make sure you're following everyone,
hit the purple pill, and that will get you noticed that people I have brought up are people that
They look like that a good profile.
They look like they're supporting tree.
And they're the people I bring up,
Let's get everybody up here and let's get to the hands.
Guys, this is a chill and chill space.
We are talking a bit about the grow-alition today.
And we're providing an opportunity for literally everyone to come up and show what they want to show.
Whether it's your personal offering, something that you want to offer to either Tree Gens or any startup up here. I know Meta's hiring and we got a bunch of awesome
startups in the space. Or if it's a actual crypto token, or if you're joining and becoming an
ambassador of TreeGens, you can show us, you can get feedback, whatever it is that you want to show.
If you get six hearts after you show from the people who are in here, then we're not only going to give you a bit more time, but we're going to put whatever you want up at the top of the spaces, and we're all going to max engage with that.
To the top, to the garden.
Yeah, I'm just introducing people to the Lingro, you know, so they get the hang of it.
I like the way you think it is.
You're on Bass App, yeah?
You got your Bass App linked to your FarApp, yeah? Aw, yeah. You got your BassApp
linked to your Farcaster, yeah?
Like I've connected the accounts, yeah?
Check your BassApp wall real quick.
I want you to tell everybody what you see on there.
I'm a little afraid of doing this while I'm live. Honestly, my BassApp does say a million dollars. I'm a little afraid of doing this.
Honestly, my base app does say a million dollars right now,
but it's a bunch of vaporware token you can't swap.
Well, if you're from America and you can write an article,
you might be able to get yourself a million dollars soon
by doing that Elon article.
I can't do it because I'm from there.
But if you are from the USA and you ain't writing that article,
I don't know what you're doing right now.
I don't even know what you're doing.
Hey, you mean my Jimmy page or the Treasants page?
No, if you go into my Elon Musk page,
No, no, no, I want to know about him.
You were talking about Elon, bro?
I don't know what Dingus was saying.
talking to Meta. If Elon's not following now i was talking to uh to to meta um
i was saying if you want to get a million dollars right now you could go and do that article contest
and then he was like what page and i thought he talked to me he's on elon's page obviously
but yeah there's an article for anyone that doesn't know it's just a bit in your alpha
he's now wanting to focus on the quality of your content rather than just how many impressions
you know personal impressions on your own walls so because of that you know you need he wants
people to actually make their own content and this is good for us because you know you could
go and practice and have a go again that one million you know you might not get the one
million but getting good at writing articles is the kind of alpha i'm giving really you could be
going and writing stuff about tree gems planting trees and then you're going
to get rewarded by the community but you're also going to get rewarded by x do you see this flywheel
we're trying to create and then obviously when you start getting wizard articles and once for
other things and we kind of put charity in with as long as you link charity into what you're doing
in this space there is so much change we're going to be able to make like think about this when we
have a mint i could say you know two percent of that mint goes towards you know not just tree gen but the whole kind of movement as a whole or
two percent goes to a web four or two percent goes toward the cic that i'm spinning up to help war
victims with you know uh prosthetics and stuff like that and these privileged kids and stuff
like that these are things we can do so easily guys i've literally got a creality k2 3d printer
upstairs and i bought it you know just to get up to date because there's no point me buying big industrial one i can't even handle a
small one and do slicing and that i'm pretty sexy with it now i'm making some cool stuff so now once
i actually get the money and the funding which will be very soon to make the size i can literally
do like three four prosthetic legs at the same time send them out to places like gaza why are
we sending them money and stuff guys like not not not we shouldn't send them any money but we all know a lot of the money isn't necessarily all getting the right place
whether we start sending them you know medical stuff when we start sending them prosthetics
that's stuff that really helps the infrastructure and economy and then once that's a bit better and
you did that with a bit of money we can start building better structure there and then it'll
be easier to do that proper charity with the money because we'll know the people in place we've
trained them for years we've been around them we know they're trustworthy
that for me is like a real route to you know actual peace i think trump's going in a bit
heavy right now with the whole let's make hotels and kick you all out and you come back three years
later maybe like rah come on brother do you like some of the stuff you're doing but anyway yo um
i do want to get to met uh unite's hand that's been up for a hot
minute uh but just super quick on this topic it's a brilliant um opportunity to make an impact like
anyone who's feeling entrepreneurial out there you can 3d print prosthetic limbs my brother's
actually getting into this as well like dude in kenya really she we can link up on that one yeah
dude and all the designs are open source so like, like, you can just find those designs. Exactly, bro.
You can make prosthetic limbs.
Why aren't, like, governments as well doing this, bro, already?
Like, they've already got this stuff, man.
One of his team members in Kenya, like, father couldn't afford a prosthetic limb.
And he was asking him for money to pay for it.
And he's like, well, like, is there a better solution?
Because they're charging, you know.
A light bulb went on. He went, why don't i just send him one they're literally charging way too much for arms and legs bro and people can't afford it
you know for a good one it's like a couple of thousand like a few thousand dollars bro
man's like bro i just lost my fucking leg you think i got money right now
right now and it's bad enough bro and i'm gonna get mine back at least you know you could add a
fraction but i just don't think a lot of people realize how many people not just like trees like
just people in general the whole thing that all of us are doing right now like we are gonna help
so many people and the people we are helping, we're going to be helping them.
And instead, if we weren't here, the same kind of person but a different one will probably be scamming them.
So we're in the right place, I think, guys.
All we got to do, work hard and stay the course.
And Jimmy, we said we were going to be short and get the hand.
Let's pass this mic around.
Unites, what is up, amigo?
Good morning. Well, it's actually evening here.
So good morning to you all.
Good evening to any other one that is on my timeline.
It's actually a pleasure.
I'm really honored to be like up in stage in this um you know this space you know because i'm i've actually been around um for like a couple of times but
i didn't get the opportunity or chance to come up on stage you know and introduce myself properly
um i've been following meta here for a while which you 3gen yeah you
gave me a follow i didn't actually know much about 3gen but i just saw a follow from you and i was
like whoa is this like your verification i saw you around the big boys around here daddy we got
the big boys out here you know yeah yeah so i was like whoa an account like this following me just
like that so i was like surprised let me check out, whether it's like a scam or something.
And I just check it out and I hop into your space.
I got to learn much more.
And you were talking about trees that you guys grew in Africa, some parts of Africa and Kenya, actually, yeah?
All over, wasn't it, Jimmy? You've got people
planting all over, haven't you? Yeah, we have.
Kenya, Tanzania, Thailand.
mainly for our direct tree
planting that we've done just in a
decentralized tree planting rewards.
So literally anyone will be able to get the proof of tree app.
We're launching it on the iOS and Android store exceptionally soon.
Like it's basically ready.
The guy in Iran who was like handling it, unfortunately lost all contact to internet.
But he's coming back online and we're getting this thing finally over on iOS and Android, which is going to be dope.
We're basically, how this works is you take your phone, you film the LAN before you plant,
right? Within the applications. You can't just find something online, right? AI can make anything
nowadays. You have to film within the application. That's an important feature. Even if you don't
have access to internet, it'll save the video and upload when you gain access to internet. That's
another important feature because it's for like remote, remote areas, right? You film before and then you film after and it automatically captures your GPS.
We've an AI tool we've trained to count exactly how many trees were planted. And then our DAO
members, when you have stakes TGN, which is our governance token, has three core functions,
vote, verify, and grow. So for verify, you're not just earning a 42% APY, which you currently get on a
token that's, by the way, has been outperforming Bitcoin Ethereum and Solana for months consistently,
but also you're getting 5% of all of the ecological credits that we bring on chain.
So we're starting by tokenizing mangrove tree planting, and you get 5% of that just for taking
a couple boxes to make sure that the
planters planted them correctly. So that's how we're moving everywhere. Now, of course,
mangroves don't grow everywhere. They're by the coast of the equator. It's like 81 countries.
But if you're planting other types of trees, if you're not near mangroves, you can still get
retroactively rewarded. You get a video NFT, which can only be purchased with TGN, and you get 95%
of those rewards as well so um and
plus we even have a budget to buy them and we support the people we're doing that and uh so
let's grow um but yeah dude i've seen you around the space a couple times it's great to have you
up on the stage man yeah it's actually a great pleasure and i actually have some trees in my
house i have like um guiva tree the moringa i don have, like, guayba tree, the moringa.
I don't know if you know of moringa.
It's got a lot of properties, doesn't it?
Yo, that stuff's what's up.
There's all these healthy, you know, leaves and, you know, greenish, you know, things that are actually healthy.
You know, I actually do have that so um you know some
trees the trees are is actually an attraction to nature itself it brings out birds like early in
the morning bro before the sun comes out the bird sounds alone i love that sound bro another thing
yeah it'd be like different kinds of birds and you have a chance to see birds that you have never
seen before because i think that's why i fell asleep last night unite you know my tv i have this screen save and it comes on with the
birds i would listen to it for a minute bang you got it that just shows the connection to nature
doesn't it bro yeah exactly exactly i was wanting with three so i'm bullish on this yeah and i always
when i see i will hop into you know all your spaces and engage on it, you know.
It's actually a great pleasure.
And you were speaking of posting, making a video, like planting something.
It's actually similar to something on Deer Market.
You know, when you want to make a post, I see something like that.
Could you spell that for me, please? Sorry? Could you spell that for me, please?
Could you spell that for me?
I'm going to check that out.
Some couple of people come out and dare on something and when you it's like a challenge when you want to like get into the
challenge um you offer like either you should go in public to the public and pour one gallon of
milk in your pants and stuff like that you get uh 200 usd or stuff like that so when you want to make a
video you know ai and stuff that is all going around so you just hop in there and it will show
you um video um file like it's actually connected to the you you can you can create something out
of it you know you just have to when you do that video using that um um link should i say it goes directly
into their um server yeah right on are you right all right it's not you know what it's nice to see
um obviously i say you know shout out to you for the flowers and you know i've i've seen you on the
wall for a long time and for anyone that doesn't know sorry about that i'm a big pixel art maxi
i'm not gonna lie i got a couple of little reasons why
i'm not deep into the dojo and with eco however i know some really cool dogs you know i know some
big dogs out here yeah and it's nice to see that you know the communities are coming and interested
in you know finding out about what we can do for the earth and don't let me wrong i know some of
you dj's out there just want to make a big win and that's okay bro because we need people flying the
charts up but what i would hope well i would really hope because you know tree gens designing
projects i don't know exactly the ins and outs of how they've designed but i know for my own stuff
you know when i do charity stuff i want to make it so you know people don't even want to rug it
not that you're stopping them you throw they don't even want to and i would hope anyone out here i'm
not saying don't make your money make your money, but do it sustainably like the project.
As long as you sustainably profit take if you need to, nobody's going to hate on you.
Nobody's even going to look at your transaction and give anything.
If anything, you know when I see transactions that are respectful profit taking, I tilt my hat.
I'm like, you know what, sir? I hope you made a nice little profit there.
Because we want people to make money.
However, and it might seem a bit early to be talking about any kind of stuff you know but the better the better habits
you get as a community the easier it is for everyone and the reason i say that i've been
in projects yeah like with pop dog the first one i was in when we were all genuinely cooking and
everyone was happy right you couldn't even like the chart like there was no touching it from like
even when people tried to get out we used to laugh at bro. We'd all just go and eat it up.
And then whoever sold it, we'd track their wallets.
And you would literally see them later that day trying to get back in the chart.
And, you know, little did we know, I actually found out who some of them were at a later date.
And, yeah, that was interesting.
But anyway, I see you wear your hand up, Jimmy.
You never need to put your hand up in your own space.
Just tell me to shut the fuck up.
No, I appreciate you bringing all of your wisdom and experience here to the space.
It's meta.tg, and I appreciate you.
And Unite, if you could DM me that dare thing.
Oh, no, it's a bit of a reach.
We're nearly there, though.
I appreciate. I appreciate Appreciate Okay
And they have Max engaged
I'm just gonna to rotate you.
But last thing I do before I go to you, Unite, have you checked out our ambassador program yet, bro?
Go to the ambassador channel.
Check out all of the pinned.
We have five reward mechanisms for the ambassadors and they're the ones growing this Grow-elition movement.
Okay, so you guys know I'm the Guinness World Record holder for tree planting.
I personally planted 30,469 mangrove trees.
We're on a mission to get a billion trees planted in a day, and we need the Grow-elition to grow every single day.
every single day so that's one of the reasons why like every single time you tag people in the
So that's one of the reasons why, like, every single time you tag people in the comments, right,
comments right like if you bring someone up here like for example um i was just in here a second
ago uh yeah like several awesome people were tagged here they did live onboarding meaning
you try to pitch them on i mean you can't say that without way away has been going in at that
probably yeah you brought about six people up yesterday you got it
too bro he brought his sister cousin brother his dog everyone yes yes yes yes yes yes yes so so
also yeah i know you guys also brought did he bring yeah he brought everyone but think about
it this way you know how many how many holders is the right now tree gems do you know roughly
okay say there's a thousand six yeah guys to be
a holder you know when i'm set if i ever do have to sell my coins and move on yeah and i like the
community i will never usually fully rug my bag i'll always leave like just a dollar in there
and that because it makes a unique wallet and people big whales will look on the chart they
will see how many holders there are now a project of this size at 1600 honestly it's like crazy talk
guys like this is going to be way beyond that in my
opinion moving forward but imagine this guys and i will land the plane on this imagine if everyone
here now just went and looked in their wallet yeah you can go to soul incinerator or do your
own research look for a place where what it does is every time i'm not i'm gonna i'm gonna be quick
with this every time you kind of trade a meme it will open this account for you now soul incinerator
you can find it through Phantom App.
Don't get scammed with this.
You're going to be very careful where you go because there are some scams of this.
But if you go and check through Phantom App, you know, they're all verified apps on the Phantom App, yeah?
So if you find Sol Incinerator, you can probably free up.
If you've been trading a while, you might be surprised.
in a while you might be surprised i've got 60 70 80 dollars so whatever it gives you if you really
wanted to help the world imagine even if you just went and threw one dollar at the tree jens chart
on a new wallet now you would double the hold account and we've got what how many people are
over 100 people here now you could at least add a couple of hundred or whatever you know so anyway
these little things like this and tiny things that don't take a lot to do you know they help us
tremendously and the more we all do this the more we fight together and push the more trees we're gonna save and the better
we're gonna do you know let's grow a hundred a hundred a hundred yeah unite anything else you
want to say brother oh um yeah like um you talk you spoke like, giveaways. These few days, I've been seeing people, like, making posts,
pull-up, giveaways, this and that.
And you see a lot of people going through to that giveaway, you know,
But most of it is actually, I don't think they do that giveaways.
Oh, around here, they are happening tonight.
All you got to do is, you gotta do is haven't you
got a receipt section on i don't know if you are no yucky duck has but have you got one
they usually give the receipts live on the show that there aren't any receipts it's like transaction
live fun but for me did you know i don't know if it's angled on me or them but with my ones
i think there's a bit of confusion with tree gens as well oh you know what this is what it will be jimmy the confusion i've seen a lot of is when you get a top dgn dot tgn because
you are creating like my one metadot tgm that well i didn't create actually dingo so mk did shout
to mk uh but when you do create your one obviously you're creating it so they can't mint it for you
so a lot of people seem to be winning the airdrop and then they're not actually listening and going
you know to actually go to the education center and stuff so if you're not going to do that they're not
getting the nft and then they're going in the comments and they're starting to complain about
it and i even go down and try and talk to them and explain to them and to be honest as i always say
whatever you're doing in live good bad whatever someone is always gonna have something to say so
you know what i do we'll offer ducks back see you later but not to you i'm just saying that to the
haters bro not you yeah i think you're talking in general right you know yeah yeah yeah i'm talking in general
no that's what i'm saying i'm saying i wasn't talking to you i'm saying the people a lot of
the people that i think are complaining is because they're not quite getting the process that's all
i was saying not you bro so so bro here's what i don't know what you're saying yeah because i know
like on the timeline there are certain certain like, oh, Bitcoin reached
As promised, I'm going to be giving a Bitcoin away.
It's like, bro, these guys.
Yeah, you got to be careful of all that 100%, bro.
That's why I said I agree with you, bro.
What you do is you jump in the comment section, you tag Grok, and you say, hey, has this influencer
ever actually done a giveaway?
100, bro. Great advice. You can go to our timeline. You can see so many winners announced all the time, right? say hey has this influencer ever actually get done a giveaway have they actually ever 100 great
advice you can go to our timeline you can see so many winners announced all the time right and so
like um and and we're like great question though bro i mean i wasn't i don't know if it sounded
like if i wasn't coming back at you you know it's a great question bro i know you weren't bro but
that's that was the thing you clarified so like that's it bro i'm telling you if we all do this
not only do you get like top comments and some exposure a lot of time but like actually you're calling these people out and a lot of
people see it and hopefully they stop wasting their time you know but anyway we have a lot
thanks for clarifying though so we gotta just just real quick real quick as general safe practices
in web 3 you do not want to be chasing like uh twitter give for a free NFT or a few dollars because you will at some point, if that's your behavior, you will get your wallet drained.
It's not just like, oh, maybe it's basically a fact.
So you're way better off only interacting with communities that you're actually involved with.
And if you see some cool community that's doing giveaways, you can do just what jimmy said and check with grok but ideally you don't want
to be just chasing twitter x um giveaways it's it's there's so many bad um players out there
unfortunately that a lot if not the majority are scams and especially if someone tags you in
and they're like oh the get this uni
airdrop nah bro it's a scam you're gonna get drained you know while we're on this scam topic
what one of my friends got scammed not too long ago and i think i've told this story before so i
won't go in big depth but guys you don't even have to be fully like interacting swapping it to get
scammed you can literally have because you guys all see them in your wallets, don't you?
I've seen a friend, and I said to him, listen, don't even click on it, bro.
You have not won any magical airdrop from, you know, this, like you say, big companies and stuff.
And not only can it get your wallet scammed, guys, what's it called again?
There's a type of phishing link that you can wrap up now. And and i've seen two people get scammed with this very recently it's becoming more
prevalent all you have to do and click it and one of them is like m dot tme so it very much looks
like the telegram handle as soon as you click it guys it says realize not only can it drain and will
drain your wallet not only that it can triangulate your location within two meters and it can even
so guys be very careful because i remember when i first got told this alpha oh don't click links
don't click links we all think we're so smart don't we think i wouldn't click a bad link or
anything well i'm here to tell you someone that was on the space yesterday apparently got hit by
a link by someone that was in the room that sent it to them and they thought because they're also
guys like i said i don't care you know when people are a bit like suspect of me you've not really seen me crashing out on the
timeline have you well that's because i don't want to put people off being a little bit skeptical i
think in this space as a new beginner coming in here you should be a bit skeptical because people
are out here trying to take your money the last thing i'll land the plane on is remember guys
nine out of ten projects if you go and look at this this is literally legit nine out of ten will rug straight in front of your face and come on
pump and stuff like that so when you do find a community where like you said um what was his
name that just came off sorry i feel really forgetting his name atlas as atlas was saying
if you do get in a community and you actually see prizes being paid you're live in front of you by
people that aren't the team that in my opinion is
somewhere to lock in i would like to say like don't be going looking for a million competitions
bro because again most of them are scams aren't they jimmy and you're just going to be chasing
your tail you know 100 all right this is chill and chill we got to get to the hands we got a lot
of requests and i'm literally getting to every single person um it was uniteite. So Unite, we're going to bring you right back up here as soon as we get
to some more of these hands. So Darazo. Can I go off that topic real quick? Real quick.
Okay, this is an important topic. Don't get wrecked. Okay, grow for it.
Yeah, straight up. So like we were onboarding about three days ago, me and Meta, we were here
triangulating with this person, Maddie xr and uh so you know
she winds up sending you this like she's like yo you want to like do like an interview and meet
whatever like well when i saw that message oh my god if you just sent me a mass message
where she's like and then she like makes a post she's like oh i got hacked uh this is what happened
i'm like you're freaking right you got hacked man you're
just covering your tracks and trying to keep your show moving and so anyway i mean people oh yeah
we did say by the way i wasn't talking about her by the way i didn't believe that either i was on
about someone else but hey we're gone 90 of those interviews are scams for real yeah and so you know
what you got to do is you really like got to check these links and like, I've been, you know, people have said this for a long time, but like, I didn't even
interact with the link until I was on a public computer where I started inspecting it. And I was
like, you can, you don't even need hygiene into this. Yeah. You don't even need to click and copy
and inspect. If you're worried, just screenshot and then throw it into an ai and they will tell you basically if that link looks okay
or not i get invites to interviews um i mean multiple times a week that are a hundred percent
scam fake links um it just happens all the time you have just got 100 000 pounds from a long-lost
citizen that's died it's like yeah okay yeah, okay, mate. All right.
Now we're going to get to the hands. Super rare that he's going to explain.
Now we're going to get to the hands, and we're going to rotate more legends up here.
I see the prize on Solana.
We're going to get all of you beautiful people up here.
And if you're in the audience, just request that, Mike.
Let's get you up here because in the end,
the love you take is equal to the love you make and your network is your net worth. If you're
connecting with people genuinely and you're sharing what you're about and you're trying to
add value, then there are a hundred plus ways we can all support one another. So let's freaking
grow and tag people in the comments. If they both come up here to the stage, you try to onboard them live just for attempting,
you'll be rewarded in TGN.
Without further ado, Darazo.
I just followed you back, Broski.
I love the .TGN in your name.
GM, the speaker station and the listening station, GM everyone, GM everyone.
I'm really here and I want to know more about the project GF.
Yeah, and I think I spent almost two hours, like three hours to explore about what they are building and what they are growing yeah
i'm really like it and then i'm really glad to see what they are building yeah i and i think i'm
lucky already i will help i want to share and even i want to start my growing a
I want to start growing a nursery matrix
Yeah. So this thing is really, really good in the world
because, because everyone needs the environment to be green.
that's all. Thank you, thank you.
Bro, I was so excited for what you were about to say.
Was he about to shield tree gens or something else?
He was loving the trees, man.
About to shield it. That was open. All right, the... Something was coming. Something was coming. About to chill it.
That was open. All right.
Let's do the old off and on again.
69% of the time, it works every
time. I'm going to drop you and invite you back
up, all right? Drop you and
invite you. You were quarterly invited
back up. Everyone who gets dropped down
is also invited to come back up.
You can totally come back. It's not forever
ever. We just got to grow tape.
We got to give everyone the opportunity
because we are an open book over here.
We want to hear from everyone.
And if you have questions,
he said he wanted to know more about the project.
First of all, maybe this is just semantics,
but I call tree gens a movement,
And the reason my personal associations
with project is like some paper mache or some tree house you build over the weekend, right?
Like this is my life's work. We're already permanently tattooed on skin. And like,
we've been building this for years. Like I know, like, like most cases with these air drops,
we're talking about people chasing and getting in trouble with like, like, you can just send
your wallet address, they can send it to you, right? You don't want to click a random link.
And that's something you have to be very careful of. The only caveat, right? And I'm
sure you should still inspect and do those things that easy said, right? Screenshot, drop it into
AI. But also like really get to know projects before you even consider clicking a link. Like
what we've got receipts, like in our GitHub, you can see that's in our link tree. So in our bio, you can see a link tree
and within link tree, it's all official links.
unless they're a part of the link tree.
And in there, you can see that, yeah,
we've got a lot of real stuff that we've built
and is live and we're growing.
And the other thing, you know,
just to end that wallet hygiene segment
actually been to somewhere um you know any kind of dap that using decks or whatever you'll often find
that you have to give permissions in order to do that and you know many people don't even know this
that after you've done it you know a bit like cookies if you don't remove them they will just
stay there so they always have permission if they want to go and do xyz so as we said on one of the
last spaces you know i think it's good to remind this now and again.
As a, you know, weekly, few daily, you know, however thing, you should be going on and removing these permissions.
That part of wallet hygiene, don't get scammed this year.
Revoke.cash. Revoke.cash is a great way to go and revoke permissions that have been sitting in your wallet for a long time.
And that is also an emergency spot.
If you feel uneasy after clicking a link, you can go there really quick.
I always have a window open just down.
You know, I can just move my cursor down, click it, bring it up on my computer and revoke
So if you, you know, if you feel suspicious or if your wallet is being drained, it happens
fast. You can try and race it and get there to revoke. want so if you you know if you feel suspicious or if your wallet is being drained it happens fast
you can try and race it and get there to to revoke but the best thing is what we've been saying about
wallet hygiene is not to click any link that you aren't super secure with and to basically you know
uh have an ai check that out before you click it uh that's just general hygiene in these virtual
streets i love it brother and yeah i'm just gonna pull up something real streets. I love it, brother. And yeah, I'm just going to pull up something real quick.
It used to be called Join Fire, but now it's called Cerberus.
It's a literal wallet defender.
What it'll do, it'll generate your transaction,
show you exactly what's happening before the transaction is on a screen
that's in front of your MetaMask.
So if you're on a computer, this is something that's absolutely imperative.
I'm going to locate it and pull it up to the Jumbotron.
It's called Cerberus now.
And basically, it's just a firewall for your wallet.
I love all this alpha being shared here, guys.
We're like a mastermind of don't get wrecked in crypto right here.
We're going to get at ease.
Yo, Great was the first one in here.
The second I opened the stage, he was a...
Bro, and he even was, like, tapping green hearts.
Bro's even got a green heart in his name, bro.
Like, you're already a tree gen.
We got greatness in the house.

Mind on the matter, chestnut checkers, can't
I was getting stoked for that second one man
I was getting stoked for that second one dude
That was fire bro, congrats, well done man, well done
That was dope, that was fire. That was fire, bro. Congrats. Well done, man. Well done.
First of all, we need you to drop all your Tree Gen songs in the Toons channel of our Telegram, okay?
I got to play that next spaces.
We got to start with that, all right?
We got to do emoji dance moves to these Toons.
You mean going to roll into his city with the the tunes down pumping up windows down not the tunes down i'm super serious about this we are creating an album for the tree bro you know i'm
i'm thinking chameleon abba with our tree like they see me planting the tree i'll be sick bro
we're playing and they're trying to catch me riding the gentleman tree
You so much man, I'm gonna record that off your voice and get it done real quick. Let's fucking grow three James
Dude, anyone who's speaking on space, watch out.
This guy's a good writer, man.
Grave can just take your voice and make whatever the hell he wants with it.
Grave, hey, have you applied for ambassador program yet, my bro?
You know, I've been trying to get on the Discord.
I've not been able to do that.
I don't know what the fuck is going on.
Like, what are you trying to get?
We're focused on Telegram, all right?
To be honest, Jimmy, at this point, I think you need to deal with the Discord.
You should have that started by now.
So let's get it sorted and the people get the people what they want
Yeah, to be fair we did create a discord a long long long long long long long time ago
Right this court is way better than telegram fam. I
Factually factually telegram is good for me
Coins it's good for the odd bar if you ain't on discord right now
Trust me, bro bro what was the
mega alpha that you shared with those last faces you're in here for me who yes you yeah yeah but
the thing is what i'm saying is you have to know what those tools are good for so with telegram
it's good for that run it up it's good for some of the base they're good for ton but with tree
gens you got such a deep community if you're having discord you can lay it out a lot better
people can go through it it's a whole trust me anyway we'll talk on the back end there trust me you'll
see what i mean we're gonna do back end and front end so like so what you're saying is like the
major alpha that you shared was that nfts are actually a thing in telegram all right they're
getting traction number one okay number two they even have a blockchain like crypto payments are
it and by the way you can create your own mini apps very easily intel i mean straightforwardly
in telegram right did you go back and listen to that space because you seem to have loads
of knowledge on this one we can do paid raids giving other people's crypto away and having
their community cross-pollinate without like bro like what can you do on discord
you can't just so you get what i mean as well bro just so you fully get what i mean i'm in
no way saying this though like please genuinely make your case i would say i'm by no way saying
that telegram isn't good to have by the way what i am saying is for the community development
aspect the depth of it discord is good i'm not saying if or because
we have both and you i can actually show you how to have a wow my kids got a nerf going for a
burst and if he's hammering me with it for no one um i can show you how to make the bridge between it
so you don't really lose anything and then you have the best of both worlds but a lot of people
think it's either telegram or discord whether it there's things that Telegram does great, like we just said,
fast integration, the NFT marketplace, all this stuff.
But listen, guys, none of you here can tell me that Telegram is not shit
for keeping up with messages, for growing community in terms of, you know, the event.
Yes, you can get add-ons.
Yes, you can tart it up to be pretty.
You know, you can make a hooker.
You know, you can put loads of string on their thing, can't you?
You know what they say? You can polish a turd but it's still a turd yeah so
in terms of the communication aspect it's a turd in terms of the integration it's amazing so that's
why like i've got it right now that telegram is for our trading bots you got my leaderboard by the
way we call the 52x and a 50 oh id i called a 52 50X. I called it 54X the day before yesterday. So because of that, we still use it for the utilities,
utilitaries, but that isn't our home HQ.
Discord is because in Discord,
I mean, we're going to have our own platform soon.
I'm guessing you guys will.
That's going to be a lot easier to take grip off a Discord.
It's a lot more open source.
Ideally, you're going to have both's that it's basically when you have
enough like community crew willing to step up and be a mod and those things in discord you have that
on discord you can have a interview space a stage a show that can then be sent out directly to a whole different level isn't it it's a whole different
level yeah it's another level of organization so it ideally you have both because telegram's a
little messy but it has it definitely has its points but discord is a little bit more i would
say like and currently would you agree telegram is going to be one for the future like it's not
what you don't want to be out of that game because in the next year or two they're i think they'll do some big
ui upgrades because i'm trying to get us to be specific on what discord has that telegram doesn't
and and you said uh community calls and stuff like that with state okay well realistically
they're more like go on let easy i'll let. Yeah, you can do video. So you can do screen sharing to walk people through.
You can have multiple guests on camera.
So for something like an impact concert that we have tomorrow.
You can't do it the same, bro. It's like a room.
Yeah, no, I'm not saying you can't, bro. Listen, one second.
I'm not saying you can't do it. I'm saying it's less interpretable.
So have you not noticed how people like Rabbi and everyone that want to do a 24-hour,
they go and host it on Discord and then they stream it everywhere else?
Well, there's a reason for that, bro.
Because it's so interpretable, it's very easy.
Whereas if you want to get the Telegram integrations,
you have to start building things in, things can break.
You have to rely on external servers.
Discord is your server, bro.
That's why there's no lag why so quick why so clean
trust me bro i promise you with a friend now you are never going to regret setting a discord up
however you might regret only leaning telegram because you're basically risking are they actually
going to upgrade all the ui and everything and it is the ton and everything that we i said is that
going to grow take off is it going to grow i don't know maybe it will maybe if it doesn't
and you spend all that time just building a telegram and then you see these other communities
that have got like discord with 10 000 in the next 10 years they are going to be able to monetize
use that put it into its own little community where telegram is to me a chat interface you know
yeah i hear you bro with integration has been around for, like, over 15 years.
And it was built for gamers specifically, so it's very robust.
And Telegram is great for certain things.
And we've already got a Discord set up.
We just decided to not focus on it at all.
I couldn't help you with it, baby.
I figured pick one and, like, actually try to crush it on there.
And I think we've made a pretty good amount
of progress on our telegram since we decided to do that you know we went from like a thousand
you know what i think would be good to do bro you just literally where we've done it we just make it
a similar workflow so you know anything i post but discord is our main home because it is the
best community builder in my opinion and i don't really try to push people going on the telegram
unless they want to use the tools however if i go and post something in discord bang I'll put in telegram you just you're growing to
At the same time like there's no reason not to do it. You know
All right, we got a lot of requests. These are legends who have repost the room. We're gonna get them up here
So we got to get to the hands. All right, D B P dot T G N. What is growing on my guy?
wow it's been a while man
my other 3G and I see you all
well it's been one hundred of a week for me if you should ask me GM, Hes&C, GM, Dingos, Oxygen, Maya the 3G, and I see you all gone.
Well, it's been one hell of a week for me, if you should ask me,
because every network subscription service in my area just got fucked up,
so I've been trying to climb trees to access the internet now these days.
But nevertheless, I'm still trying to grow.
I'm still very much bullish on this space, and I'm not giving up on this yet,
because I know for sure this
coalition is something that gives the legacy for us all for our monkeys and also you can see
doubt you want to be that guy that in the long run lost man I don't want to be that guy I don't
know if you guys saw the men push yesterday but I don't want to be that guy I just want to be the
guy that stays with the movement and make something meaningful out of it by providing real life utilities to others so yeah the thing is i have a brother on the space right now and he's he's the one i want
to onboard but i don't know if i should do it now or later he's right on the space and yeah so has
you yeah who is it he's io a whiteyo. AY Sports is reporting the mic.
He's a sportsman. He's a dance lover.
What does DPB stand for if you don't mind me asking?
I just told him to preach that movement.
He wants to just speak more about his.
Okay, thank you for not making me say daddy that was that was hard to push through that bro
five times in space all right okay all right dpb.tpn is onboarding to five
has requested the mic. Much
love. I'm excited to go through this.
I also see Precious. I see Izo. I see
Rohit. I see JJ Webb. I see Marapata.

get them up here. We have full house
Salana. We want to hear from you.
Fries on Salana. And we and we're gonna rotate your broski
ay sport up here to the stage momentarily precious i saw you got rugged you were up here a moment ago
we're getting you back we're getting back don't worry we have not forgotten about you precious
we want to hear from the precious but uh fries on salami how are you doing amigro you've donated
ten dollars worth right yo gmgm guys so yeah we've only donated ten dollars so far with fries
um i only made a small donation when we first launched nine days ago
um i have been running a project on base called burgers on base
in five months with that project we have donated five thousand dollars
um we donate to saint j Jude to feed the children,
to No Kid Hungry, Children's Miracle Network Hospitals.
We do it all through the giving block.
Hey, DBB, bro, it's mid...
Five months on base, I'm still...
You're good, man. Five months on base, I'm still running that project, but I just can't ignore Solana anymore.
I want to build on the Solana ecosystem, and I want to replicate the success that I've had on base on Solana,
because I know there's a lot more volume, There's a lot more people on Solana.
All of the donations that I make are transparent.
So I post the links, transaction links.
You can look at my wallet, everything.
What success did you have on base?
Sorry to interrupt you, but you said about success on base.
What project did you have there?
So it's the handle is burgers on base.
It's a project called Burger Money.
So fries is basically a derivative of burgers.
What market cap did that go to, bro?
So it ran to a $400,000 market cap.
The creator of the base chain, Jesse Pollock,
actually bought some of it and he posted about it.
So it's doing pretty well.
Was that your first project or have you done other stuff?
This prize is my second one.
Showing up every single day for five months, supporting other people,
building a community, just being honest and transparent.
And all of the revenue that I generate goes to donations
so it's something I enjoy doing I like shit posting I like getting attention online
that attention and engagement turns into donations for hungry kids so it's a win-win for everyone
that is super awesome bro like this is this is one of the this is one of the things I love about
web3 is you will find every now and then some really, really awesome and genuine people.
And we, we bring, we bring them all here.
Like somehow they end up here.
And what I want to say real quick, my bad for interrupting, but I'm actually a doxxed
You can see pictures of my face everywhere.
I'm from Northwest Florida and I'm a crazy Florida man
I love doing what I do and thank you for having me. Yo, it's it's great to have you up here fries on chain. I
I don't know if you're comfortable clicking county links, but this is for one-on-one if you I've done a series more than 500 episodes
Something called max impact. It's all about empowering change makers to maximize their positive impact. This could be something cool to feature on it. So hit me up and let's Eve, New Year's Day. We are very consistent here.
And we bring a lot of people who love crypto and positive impact together here.
So I would love it if you could, yeah, lock in, tap noties, join here.
If you're consistent here in this space, I think you're going to connect with some really legendary people like Mayan, for example.
And we have an impact concert tomorrow for Monthly Earth Day.
It's our first impact concert of the year.
There's a lot of great live music.
At least four musicians that are going to be performing from Venezuela.
We got a few from the States.
Kind of planned in is a little after party where any of the tree gen
community that wants to perform sing spoken word whatever can come up and join in uh we're going to
touch on you know uh wallet security which is always part of the impact concerts of course
uh the focus is the tree gen community tgn getting a billion trees planted onboarding people so invite
your friends it's not just like the
regular shill and chill this is a special event awesome live music great speakers so
garden uh appreciate any you know support getting getting people to see that retweet like bookmark
max engage and you heard that right we don't plant a billion not a million a billion trees that's
crazy that's a crazy number and the fact that i already know we are going to do that is wild Don't plant a billion, not a million, a billion trees. That's crazy, man.
And the fact that I already know we are going to do that is wild.
And by the way, if you're just tuning in and you don't know how on earth we're going to get here,
it's definitely a multifaceted approach.
But I can read to you the 12 countries which have now confirmed countrywide tree planting days.
I'll have a tiny bit, please.
So I was at COP30, which is the United Nations Conference, Conference of Parties.
And I came there with a press badge.
And I interviewed these people as the Guinness World Record holder, interviewing ministers
of environment for the most part. And so far we have Bangladesh, Brazil, Nigeria in the house, Indonesia, Venezuela,
oops, hopefully, yep, Togo, Papua New Guinea, Ethiopia, these are the goats, Palau, potentially
Fiji as well, I made a little note there, India, Australia, and then Kenya. We got a really
good lead with Solomon Islands as well and all the Pacific Islands, which is going to grow.
We keep growing this thing. I got 11 at COP30. Now we're at 12. We're going to be even more
growmentarily. And just in Ethiopia, when I say they're the goats, these guys got to 714
million trees planted in one day as one country they united 29 million tree planters i
was there on the ground that's a lot of trees it's a lot of trees we did the first ever grow
olympic games competitive tree planting we're turning tree planting into a sport and uh bro
i i've even pitched this to the head of sustainability at the olympic games and the
dude loved it trees were they like different game modes or were they just who could plant the tree
the fastest i gotta get you the video um no we had tons of different games bro it's like we had like
blindfolded planting one hand plant teams like like first to plant this number of trees how many
can you plant i need to get involved in this one i really want to do bro we didn't we weren't able
to make this happen in like the pilot but dude i want to do like um you know red
light green light right but imagine like red light green light but every meter you have to plant a
tree and like if you're moving during the red light you're like you're screwed you know and so
you know i want to be a tree james i'm actually 3d printing myself a geometric mascot i've just
i've not done a custom on it it's actually you know the guy off of the squid games the boss guy i've done that but in white because i've got my white hat so i'm gonna
start doing be able to be alpha i'm gonna start doing live events and stuff but with my mask so

funny or just i'll try and some plant some trees into wild places like you know the cider hills or
i'll just do some crazy stuff with my mask on so i'm down for that let's get it cooking man let's freaking grow my we gotta get
costa rica on that list yes i'll go on holiday but yeah i'm in england so guys if you are from
a country okay okay first of all okay let's do a quick poll spam okay spam hundreds if you are
from one of those countries that I just read out, okay?
If you are, in fact, from one of those 12 countries I just read out, spam 100s.
Can you read the countries again?
Because I can't remember you said 12 countries, bro.
Bangladesh, Brazil, Nigeria, Indonesia, Venezuela, Togo, Papua New Guinea, Ethiopia, Palau, India, Australia, Kenya.
Okay, if you're from one of those, spam 100 you're not do a fist I fist if you are not from
one of those countries let's see his awake yo Jimmy what if I what if I was born in India but
I'm not from there technically oh we got really technical now I don't think it's that deep bro
you can go to both teams bro yo man where are you
damn i'm in portugal right now i'm i left in a few years ago i used to live in portugal
beautiful that month it is it yeah yo you should fight their big pine forest i used to love getting
lost in them portugal because you know they got like uh they did refi week over there there's a
lot of uh kind of regenerative finance people in portugal
anyway it's funny how you say because i was there when i was about nine but i always remember thinking there was so many trees in portugal like when you went in the forest and got lost like you
really got lost like you got a bit scared you know yeah okay i'm gonna grow tape people um
just because we got a let up brother who wants to do a live onboarding, AY Sports. Fries, please feel free to request the mic again.
I will get you right back up here.
I just have to grotate peeps.
And I'm physically incapable of grotating people who are a part.
Were you going to say something about the fist people?
Like how they can get their countries on board or something?
So, guys, if you're not from one of those 12 countries, all right,
hit me up in the DMs. All right. We need people on the ground following up with your minister
of environment so that they can follow. Now there's safety in numbers, right? We already
have a dozen countries doing this. So now to pitch your country and your minister of environment,
you know, if you're in America, just go to California's whatever people, because they still actually give a shit about the environment all right california still locked
in rest of america probably a lost cause right like this is the first this is the first year that
uh the states did not attend cop 30 in the 30 years they've been doing it um but but california
did like california showed up and um and by the big deal. Okay, wait.
Wait, who did let someone up? Damn it. I gotta get
Sorry, my bad. Sorry, my bad.
I'll leave the buttons alone now.
back up here, bro. I promise. Yeah, he was
my guy and he's been promoting it a lot.
But yeah, rotate whoever. I'm gonna leave the
buttons alone for now. You're good, bro. I appreciate your help.
But like, yo, Peter, I'm gonna let you up again just momentarily, okay?
Peter, we're going to get you back here.
We're doing live onboarding right now.
AY Sports is here to get onboarded.
Oh, EZ was a gentleman and he dropped.
Okay, well, bro, I don't drop partners.
We got shit to talk about, EZ.
Actually, you got to come back up here because we got to talk about this Impact concert and, like, the video spaces integration stuff.
Can I pop a quick announcement in?
We've already done 10 โ or sorry.
I think Jimmy just did 20 announcements of winners who are going to get both dbt and an
i'm gonna clip that and now we're gonna say the next five i want to go to your telegram community so that's going to be the people in telegram who are always there always showing up top five members
will get an ethereum based unstoppable domain but the fun does not end here i have too many i have
way too many polygon domains. So let's just
add another 20 to the table here. I will deliver 20 extra domains. So Jimmy, you can do another
round of two 10 packs of winners and I will deliver polygon domains to those winners just
to make a clarification there. And for the full 25 of Ethereum domains, those have been clipped
for the spaces. Let the other five go to your Telegram community.
Okay, I just posted this week the top 10 win.
So this is very easy to track.
I can give out 10 per week.
So let's do 10 before this Sunday and then another 10 right before next Sunday if we can, if you wanted to do 20.
Because this is a cool feature in the Telegram, guys.
You just do forward slash LB, all right?
And then when you do that, it shows a leaderboard.
And at the top, we got WizDead, RollX, then we got WayEye, then we got BlackCat.
So the top three get a share in 69 TGN tokens every single week.
But obviously, if you're spamming we're just
going to mute you so don't do that just engage authentically and uh normally it's the top three
that win but this week and next week thanks to dingus and daba and this amazing partnership
um all to all 10 of you get an unstoppable domain which is pretty freaking awesome sauce so big
shout out to dingus much love dingus let's grow. I think what we'll do is I'll use the average for what?
Or should I use the past all time?
What do you think I should use when I do the LB command?
Oh, I didn't even see there are options there.
I should do that for the reference.
Yeah, well, maybe we can see more than 10 then.
I thought we could only see 10 for maybe that's just for this week.
If you do all the time, I don't know.
Yeah, just think on that.
Let's say there's five extra.
The Unstoppable Domains total to your Telegram community plus the 20 that are going out.
Still, we give out 20 on Spaces here live.'d be 30 oh snap okay ethereum i got you i
got you bro and then wait wait wait the 20 okay yo i appreciate you whatever you want to do we'll
make it happen and i love it um i was maybe a little confused okay wait so you're giving out
okay wait but these these are okay the other 20 we've announced 20 winners, but we're giving them to random people of the 100 winners, right?
We're giving out $1,000 worth of DBT, 100 winners.
And then a random one gets an NFT, just to be clear?
Well, actually, I wasn't sure that's how you want to do it so
i was collecting wallets i thought that we'd do these these first 20 here but if you don't want
to do it like that we can just make it random so it actually is kind of like a raffle okay
i'm real quick um we'll collect all the ethereum wallets off of every single person who's won the
dbt campaign and it will be a raffle of who's
getting i have too many nfts i have over 10 000 nfts i will be sending unstoppable domains probably
even more than what i've already committed to other things too it's going to get fun i like that
it will be really fun to do some giveaways at the impact concert i know that we have azos finance
coming they will be one of the speakers in between the live music rounds.
And they're going to be having some sort of giveaway or competition for seeds, which will then convert into governance tokens at Azos, which is a partner here of Tree Gens.
You can have TGM to open a vault and take a loan of AZUSD.
You'll learn more about it tomorrow at the concert. But yeah, if there's any partner
communities that want to throw a little extra in the mix for the Impact concert tomorrow,
it's always a lot of fun to do some live wheel spins or giveaways at the concerts. Generally,
we do a bit of that as well. Yeah, beautiful. Guys, here's so many-
I just want to keep for solidarity. I'm going to give away, actually, the people you already
announced because I've already talked to them in the back end and collected their wallet addresses.
So for those 20 people that have been announced for the DBT loot box campaign winnings, you
guys are getting unstoppable domains from the Ethereum main net chain.
And I will be adding to that pool and that'll be for the randomized giveaway that we're
doing raffles because I've already promised to these people on the back end, I'm going
You guys are getting hooked up.
So for the past 20 people that got announced from Jimmy's space here, you're going to be getting an unstoppable domain from me today on the Ethereum mainnet.
And then we'll be doing a raffle system going forward.
Glad we're on the same page.
We really got to get to these requests because we got too many freaking legends.
We got Aura 101 and Amazing Space.
That request is just going up as well they
ain't going down bro grow zero x leonardo.tgn hashtag mob is an absolute goat like it's i was
right next to him when we launched tgn together and he made sure it was uh secure after we did
multiple audits but changed some stuff and wanted to make sure it was all super secure he's goaded
and then we got izo as well who's an amazing musician and and so many so many amazing people requesting precious jj 1107 404 okay so we're gonna get to live
onboarding here guys live onboarding okay so daddy playboy um dpp maybe you should retreat
do you think maybe you should do shellevator with some because there's a couple of people
have been on stage for quite a bit maybe we should do shelovator check because you got
them requests again more and more now ain't there you're a couple of chats down there now
i see you're zero actually you're jj you're pretty awesome or you got yo you got bro the
requests out here are better than your other pool or care or favorite space bro we are going to move
to the shillivator format thank you i forgot to you i decided not to use the shillivator
bro you messaged me before
and we love hearing you speak.
the ball's in your court,
Yeah, man, jam, jam, everyone,. Grow right ahead. Yeah, man.
Like I said earlier, like, yeah.
So, yeah, my friend is in this space at the moment.
His name is Hayes Sports, actually.
And he's been, I've been telling him about the growlation for like a week now.
And he's been saying like he wants to hear from both my mouth and the horse's mouth himself.
So, yeah, Hayes, welcome to this space place we are in the three giants grominate tree and what we do here we are not here is just to like
cut down trees or sap out trees from the earth or fruit trees or no no we are just here to like
plant trees that would make our environment more sustainable and the trees with plants mostly
the mango trees actually because that's like the natural fuel that mother health
gave us so that we could just absorb all this excess carbon in the atmosphere and just
make do with it in ways within its fields yeah so the 3gns correlation is just like a
a growing trigger of like-minded people that is just like all they are concerned about is how it goes to make this environment
habitable and also ways we can help by planting more trees like that's like the the the icing
that's not the cake like because what 3g does is provides a means by which you as a normal like
regular person that like like a culture or two actually, you are planting trees in areas.
Either you are being sent to do these officially or not, but you could just
take a video recording of you before you start planting and during the planting
session and when you are done and send it to the appropriate content through the AI
verification tool, like the proof of plants, we really want to verify it for you.
And if they discover that you are there by every tree planting rules at all you
get rewarded in hemgrow tokens like that's very that's like very crazy like you get rewarded like
nembo tokens which you yourself can use to like do many many things whereas could also get some
cgm token which is like the official coins of the ecosystem and all so you get many opportunities
opportunities by just joining this coalition and
just up in on these things because don't let me don't let me like to exaggerate i've been like
enjoying myself here i say so i wanted to be part of that great movement so i'm just like i just
involve yourself and get bonded real quick so yeah shout out to jimmy shout out to jimmy and
the red shout out to grodman tree i can also check out the ambassadorship like program link i think you should be in the
jumbo trombos i would still like post it up there for you to see it yeah that was this man welcome
to the growing tree yeah yeah that's grow my guy ay AY Sports, what do you think, bro?
From the city of Ibada in Nigeria.
It's exciting to be here, guys.
This is my first time here.
And my guy, Dad Playboy, has actually been telling me a lot about this movement.
And it's amazing he told me jimmy like two-time world record holder that is that is crazy
i can't believe it and gosh i'm just excited to be here looking forward to um the exciting
opportunities and um the fact that i is he introduced me to this and then I get to be a part
of such an amazing project. It's exciting for me and I'm looking forward to how I can participate
and learn from everyone here. So it's exciting to be here. So I'm glad to be here. I'm glad to be
here. Shout out to everyone. Shout out to Jamie. Shout out to everybody on space.
This is my first time here, and I'm excited to, you know, go along with you guys.
Yo, DPB has been onboarding him.
So you said you want to know some kind of next steps to get involved.
I would direct you to the TG. So if you just swipe one to the right
at the far left of our garden at the top of the space,
you're going to see T.me slash treejamfam.
Once you're in there, we have an ambassador channel.
So guys, there's some new people who are just tuning in.
Let me quickly break down what the ambassador program is.
So you are the face of the movement.
You're onboarding, you're growing the movement,
and we have five, mechanisms for the ambassador. So number one, just for filling out the interest form, okay, the expression of interest in this program gets you an NFT,
which actually has more utility than most of them out there. So this NFT gets you token-gated access to what's called the Kingfisher's Media Learning Center.
So this learning center not only teaches you about tree gens,
it teaches you about all kinds of really important stuff.
And when you learn about any of that and you take a little quiz, you actually earn impact tokens.
TGN when you learn about tree gens. All right. Now, if you're accepted into the program as well,
you also got our most limited edition NFT where we're going to launch. There's only 100 of these
ambassador NFTs that will ever be created and they will have future utility at our events.
We've already done multiple side events called Regenascence.
And so that's the next thing you get as an ambassador. We also have .TGN NFT wallet
addresses. So that's why DPB.TGN has the .TGN in his name, same with Jimmy.TGN, et cetera.
All right. And these wallets are going to get you multiple different airdrops. And if you're
representing our values on the timeline, we will be airdropping these wallets continuously over time.
Even if X is not doing social fire,
not allowing a lot of web scraping,
So you guys just report to me.
hey, Dingus did something cool for someone.
Yo, easy planted a tree today.
I'm going to be trying to do my own research
and typing.tgn and going through profiles.
But I've got a million things to do literally and um and i really appreciate you
guys to tell me and i could just send uh money to the dot tgn or we're gonna nominate someone
send a pot of tgn and just send it out as well and just like help me out with this okay so that's
another thing is your dot tgn um you're getting multiple airdrops i said so you're also getting
uh this insurance token it's uh it starts with an E and they're insuring nature it's another
refi token so that's pretty dope all right now lastly we're going to be
launching streamed social fi as you probably saw and I just mentioned X is
not allowing info fi anymore so but we're not letting that stop us what we're
doing is we're quickly pivoting to Farcaster and Base App, which by the way,
is an app that's gone from like 200,000 users to like 1.2 million pretty quickly.
And Vitalik's active on there.
There are tons of mini apps in there.
It's like web three native social media.
And you definitely want to be getting active on Farcaster.
I know people who have made like good salaries in
developed countries like purely through posting on this app and like the opportunities in there
are pretty next level. So get active on Farcaster and Base app now. You can build a following pretty
quickly and I'm sure EZ might have some tips for you. And we are going to be measuring the
engagement from real people on the Farcaster app and doing streamed social fire, meaning you'll be getting paid every single second for growing this movement.
And we're streaming those tokens out to you through a platform called PollanFi that we're launching where it's a partner of ours.
And the PollanFi platform is going to be measuring everything from Farcaster and Base app.
That doesn't mean we can't reward you for activity on this app.my it's just it's just manual okay yeah that's that's the
ambassador program go to the telegram t.me slash tree gen fam it's one to the right from the top
left of the garden and once you're there check the ambassador channel go through all the pin
ask me questions in there ask kingfishers media questions if you get stuck all right go ahead
jimmy i wasn't hurrying you up bro that would have been very rude all i was gonna say bro uh was just a little bit of alpha you know many little
tippet alphas here and there um you know sometimes when someone says like going out last time sorry
for getting my kids obviously for birthday today um you might have people like or you might think
oh i can't really be bothered to go and do that it's gonna take me 10 million guys the things
that you know last cycle honestly and i sat by and watched me because i'm not i'm
not gonna lie i'm not that big a airdrop hunter you know i'm only building trade and do my thing
yeah but the people that were doing it they were telling me to do it guys they were like yeah i'll
do it i did a couple of them but i didn't really commit fully to them i did a bit of them then i
got guys people printed on airdrops and i'm on about guys not people that put loads of money
in because most airdrops you know there's no nowhere to spend any money it's just effort guys some of the airdrops
last year i mean the linear one people had a lot of money on that you know there's at least five
or six airdrops last cycle that made people you know 50g 60g plus some people made over 100k a
million for i'm not thinking i made that from this one you know obviously this is more for the movement
of a sub but what i am saying because i're not pitching our own projects we're here to
try and make you guys level up all over get in with your main projects like here because not only
are you gonna you know potentially have opportunities here we're gonna say oh like
jimmy just said there's a farcaster out hey you know met is about to launch his new project hey
you know always got this space so this is how we grow guys we give each other the opportunities we help to progress each other we use our skills to benefit our friends where
they have their weaknesses or just not even weaknesses just everywhere they could do with
help if we can do that for one another we are all powerful more powerful because of it you know and
the last thing i'll finish on is you can never use your light to share light with someone else
and diminish your own light it will only only make it brighter, you know?
That's what's up, Lat Warriors.
Yo, so I really want to get through quests, like I said.
But AY Sports, do you have any questions?
I'm sure DPB can uh also answer questions in future
all right the rotation is commencing all right we're getting the okay it's happening precious

what is a woman what's the word woman womb man woman yeah get it
get it get it anyway womb i did not notice wait uh yeah different spelling but yeah i get you i
get you the womb man all right yeah but jimmy the thing is i'm not going to go any further on this
because it's a esoteric but the thing is is, with etymology, the sources of words, you know, they often came from Latin or many other things,
they were never usually spelt the way you look.
Like, if you look at government, gubermente, depending who you speak to, that can actually be a lot of a mind-controlled gubermente.
So it doesn't have to sound exactly like it.
And not all of these works, you know, some are reaches, but womb but womb man i would suggest actually is part of the etymology that a woman is basically a man with a womb is it not
so yeah anyway quite interesting tip big factory a couple more details there bro like
actually i was i looked into this when i was younger because i used to think i was crazy
but actually it doesn't have anything to do with
With each other I used to think when I was younger
I was like it makes perfect sense womb man
You were today years old when you just learned it
You unlearned it and we're back exactly where we were
I had a friend in high school
And I was like, yo, environment.
All right, guys, we need to focus, okay?
We got to get through a lot of requesters, and we're almost two hours into the spaces,
and we barely got into, like, two, three shows, dude.
Come on, let's get through these.
Yo, Touchgrass, how you doing, friend?
It's been a long time coming.
I think this is the first time I've been up here and actually directly spoke with you,
but we've definitely had a lot of connections indirectly.
I constantly see TGN on the timeline, which I always first think of Touchgrass Nation,
but I know it's really tree gens, but you know, there's some relations there. And then definitely
people just within your community as well, definitely tap into ours as well. So definitely
it's nice to meet you. My name is Sean. I'm the founder of Touchgrass and glad to be here.
You all have to definitely be the hypest community regarding
trees I've ever come across.
I ain't gonna lie, we don't touch no grass, bro.
We just be blading them, they're treating them, planting them, bro.
We come to touch grass like that, dude.
It's all good. In fact, bro, check your DM
right now. Check your DM.
We are the grass touchers, bro.
That's why I always tell people. Bro, we're talking about grass right now, bro. We touch it all over. That's what I always tell people.
Bro, we're talking about grass right now, Jimmy.
You're saving the grass too much.
We don't discriminate on how you touch it.
You can do it with your feet, your fingers, your lips.
You're rolling that grass, bro.
We got to find a way to grow lab rape, bro. Like we do touch tree. You do touch grass. Yo, so Touch Grass, I sent you a DM. We got to find a way to grow elaborate, bro.
You know, we both โ clearly both of our grow immunities love nature, right?
So, bro, we got to do something.
We got to figure something out.
I don't know if you're comfortable with Calendly, but boom, there it is.
Book time with me, and let's chat about it.
We got to go and touch some stuff together.
And trees and some nature.
I can see, you know, between tree gems and touch grass, that's the match made in heaven.
Yeah, that's the dynamic duo right there.
And I know, you know, what you all do with trees and things like that.
And we definitely have inspirations to do some environmental sustainability stuff as well in the future.
So, hey, like you said, match made in heaven, man made happy man we gotta make it work let's go elaborate on that yo um
this is some alfalfa well i don't know i guess that term is kind of like shared around a lot
i mean we're overusing alpha this is just some information i it's just info i take it and leave
it all right but um the yucky ducks is every single yuck pot, which is weekly, they're going to be planting trees with us.
And like Monthly Earth Day has planted trees with us.
And this guy, Meme for Trees, you've seen around here a bunch.
He's planted trees with us.
Like we just get inbound,bound you know stuff like this is
magically coming together jimmy you know i've asked you before but you didn't direct answer it
you know if someone comes now a project or anyone wants to come and you know plant some trees on
behalf of tree jens how would they go about it how much would it cost them you know how much time
can you just give us a breakdown on how people can come do that please sorry are you saying um
if people want to plant for tree
say like with my project with you know wizards and web4 if i say okay we've got a bit of a charity
part which we have and you know we legit can do this you know if we want to get involved with it
you know how can we go about that okay so you're saying if you're if your startup wants to plant
trees with us yeah we want to go plant some trees for you. We want to know how much money we need, you know, what kit or what do we need to do?
So before the launch of M-Grow token, we're charging only 10 cents per tree.
And that's like significantly cheaper than other tree planting groups.
And the reason for that is because we're planting propagules, right?
So we take these, they kind of look like sticks on mangrove trees and you stick them in the ground and they literally germinate in the ground. So you don't even need
the nurseries, right? Where you need like months of watering the trees before they are planted and
the plastic around them. And you got to transport them in a truck and you got to unload them. You
got to dig the hole and then you got to take the plastic off and you hope the plastic doesn't go
in the ocean, all this stuff, right? I'm tired already hearing that. You know what I'm saying?
Like with this, you take it from a tree, you stick it in the ground.
And they sequester more carbon dioxide and they help with biodiversity.
Like mangroves are an incredible freaking tree.
And that's why we're tokenizing them first.
I think I've mixed a bit.
Like what I mean is rather than, because obviously, you know,
for people that just want to go throw some money at a good cause, right?
Tree doesn't mean perfect for that, right?
Because the trees aren't going to come, you're going to give us your money,
well, the community, your money, we're going to go and make it useful, yeah?
But what I actually mean is, I don't know if you, you know,
I'm guessing you have, but I don't know how this looks.
For like, like I say, me prefer, if I actually want my project to go,
if I say, if I want to go to you, because I'm in England,
so I want to start doing this in England,
I've got a project, raising some money,
but I don't really know how to do it.
I want to hold Tree Gen's hand. have you got something in place like that where
you can help communities get the kit and the things and know the knowledge where they need
to go and do it you know have you got that yet or okay so now you're talking about the other side
of the coin right which is people being empowered to plant trees yes so so right now we've got like
a bit of a beta version going on with the app.treegens.org.
There was a bug that just got squished on that.
Basically, you need my help to come and make it perfect, right?
We've been building this for a very long time.
And like I said, all the code is open source.
You can check our GitHub.
But we're launching this with General Magic, and they've built a lot of really good UI, UX stuff.
I've already mentioned it in this call.
Like, hey, if you don't even have access to the internet.
What are the stuff they've done, Jimmy?
Because I don't know of them.
I'm sure other people don't.
Features like autosaving.
Like, if you don't even have access to the internet, like, it'll autosave the video and upload when you gain access.
Or, like, we have, like, social logins, right?
So, like, it's automatically creating a crypto wallet for you.
Stuff like if you're in a remote village and you have no idea about crypto, you can still use this stuff, right?
And so you go through, you're easily created a wallet, and then you watch a couple of videos or read a little bit.
We have it in multiple languages about how to plant these mangrove trees.
Then you go in, you do it, you film before and after, and then you start earning your tokens.
So this is coming very, very soon.
It's right around the corner.
So stay tuned. Stay locked in on it. This is going to be really bullish for TGN, like I said, because if you
have TGN stakes, you're not just going to be earning the 42% APY. You're going to be earning
multiple different tokens as well. 5% of all the ecological credits goes to our verifiers. I think
that's going to be very, very, very significant. All right. Legends requesting the mic.
Have not given him the mic.
Everyone, make sure you're following Touchgrass.
Touchgrass, please request the mic again if you want to come up and say it.
Unless you want to say anything else now, I'm going to have to grotate.
Before you grotate, touchgrass.
We've got to let his out of the mic.
I know he's rapping like Slim Shady at that mic right now.
He's ready to go yeah i was gonna say
give me uh give me 30 seconds and then i'll definitely you can uh rotate me out and i
definitely love all the the words here i gotta start writing these down since it definitely ties
into uh sorry touch bro i didn't know you weren't finished my bad yeah no no all good all good uh
so i just wanted to say i was just gonna bro, you're being too humble, bro.
I definitely was like, bro, you need to lock in with Tregeans.
I'm glad to see you here. Touch grass.
And I'm glad to see that you're going to enter the Shillivator.
He's definitely being humble right now. He's done a lot of things.
And I definitely want to.
We got to hear the pitch.
I keep forgetting about the shillivator, guys.
We're going to give you exactly 69 seconds to shill touch grass.
And, and, but here's the thing.
Here's the thing. If you get six hearts from the people here today, then you will be getting another 69 seconds.
And you can plant anything that you want up in our garden at the top of the
And let's all maximally engage with that.
I love reshared the space as well.
If you have reshared it on reshare it,
reshare it back in a hundred days.
I know you're all that transp trans by this amazing conversation but 136 comments for a space
of this size is not that great to be honest guys and we're usually really good at it so let's go
hit it i'm about to go and do five non-spammy spread out comment myself so if you can't do that
why come on support the trees yo i'm not even gonna lie man i'm touching some grass right now
Yo, I'm not even gonna lie, man.
I'm touching some grass right now.
What type of grass you talking about, Willis?
the grow munitry over there.
He's come to our spaces and help support us, too.
Definitely a good hype, man.
Yeah, I'm ready whenever.
so I can get another 69 seconds. You ready for it, Jimmy? Should we let him go, Jimmy, I'm ready whenever. Give me those 69 seconds so I can get another
69 seconds. You ready for it, Jimmy? Should we let him go, Jimmy? I think he's ready, boy.
He's goaded. Okay. All right. All right. All right. Here we go. Here we go. All right. He's
ready. He's stepping into the shillivator. We're going to the 69th flow. Imagine you have a whale
in the shillivator, all right, who is in there with you, and you
got to pitch him on this.
Well, good afternoon, everyone.
I'm the founder of Touchgrass.
And what we're really looking to do is grow a brand and tokenize the movement behind Touching
A lot of people say it, but who really does it and at the
end of the day we want to be a brand once again i keep emphasizing brand because we're not just
another meme coin or nft project we actually make a difference a portion of our nfts which actually
just minted out go to supporting kids and youth athletics so So we tell people to touch grass,
but what's the easiest way to get people to touch grass
and getting them to be able to touch grass as well.
So at the end of the day,
we're in an ecosystem that has a token.
And we just want to promote something positive for the space.
We want to leave the earth a better place
And we're going to do that.
And we're creating a movement to be able to do that as well.
So other people like TreeGens and everybody else out here that's building something positive for the world will be able to partake in what we got going on as well.
So definitely appreciative to be here.
We've been around for six months and super excited to be here.
All right. That is 69 seconds on the clock.
Okay, so EZ and Crypto is leading the charge with the green heart.
Same with monthly, Gorminitri, and Meta, and Izzo.
All right, so that's five. We're going to see one more from the audience.
I'm going through. Oh, yep.
And we got Philo from Mexi, who is giving you some love as well.
All right. Touch grass. You got
more time on the clock if you want to say anything else. And you can also put anything you'd like up
in our garden. For sure. So just to make this really simple, you know, what we're looking to
do is we're trying to really make crypto be something that can be effective. So we talk
about being able to affect kids' lives and getting them to be able to touch grass.
So when we say that, what we mean is we want to be able to reach out to our local communities,
local organizations, and bridge the gap for kids who might not have the funding to be able to continue to play sports.
You know, there's some different situations that could cause that, maybe single parent households,
whatever it may be, just someone falling on hard times but
we want to be able to make that change make an impact and directly have those kids be able to
get outside and touch grass i also hinted at the fact that we want to get into some environmental
sustainability efforts as well because i can't tell people to touch grass if there's no grass
to touch so definitely check us out man Super excited to be here as always.
Yo, touch grass. If you can swing through tomorrow, we're having an impact concert is the first impact concert of the year. Impact concerts is basically we mix live music in between speakers.
The focus is on public goods and, you know, social impact. We've been doing them for years.
We've done them for uh tree gens
with gitcoin last year we often uh align them with quadratic funding um giveth octon uh organizations
like that so it sounds like you've got a you've got a great project and maybe uh in the future
uh sometime this year we could we could do a touch grass impact concert that sounds pretty dope to me
i'm glad you're here love to see you getting more involved with the tree jam.
There'll be a lot of grass to touch there, bro.
Yeah, I'm always for it, man.
And if there's opportunities to be able to give away, you know, touch grass tokens or
maybe one of our grass toucher NFTs, always looking for opportunities to be able to spread
So definitely appreciate the hospitality and allow me to come up here and talk about what
Yes, please DM me. Much love. Give talk about what we got going on. Yes.
DM me anything you want to give out, bro.
And let's run something up during this Impact concert.
We'd love to see you back here and in the video broadcast.
By the way, just quickly on that note before we lose track of this.
We're doing video and spaces right um for tomorrow i was under the
impression we were just doing a spaces uh partially because we we haven't been able to
solidly connect um on on the back end uh in calls as much so since we've just been sort of texting
back and forth i've told the couple of people that I booked, uh, that it's just audio, but we could
try and swing it to video. Like we've got till tomorrow, you know, we've got a little less than
24 hours, but we could, uh, I can talk to Jose, see if his internet is stable enough. He is in
Caracas. They have had a little bit of internet challenges with everything going on, but, uh,
we can, we can try and swing it to video if you want to do the the broadcasting okay uh yeah look maybe right after the space let's see if we can just run a quick little test
it's a little like you know you got to make sure that we're just bringing the audio into the space
especially if like some of the people want to be in both it's like a it's a thing that we have to
handle all right i want to see some hands raised from the people on the stage. If you were trying to say something, raise your hand.
If you want to speak, please do raise thy hand.
If your hand is not raised and you're asleep on the stage, you best believe you're about to be grotated because we do have some legends requesting the mic.
I got to go in a couple minutes.
Okay. Much love. Touch grass. All right. Appreciate you, man. Let's grow. I got to go in a couple minutes. Feel free to drop me. Got to go. Okay.
And we'll chat in the DMs.
Mayan has got to bounce in a couple minutes.
So I'm going to prioritize the Mayan.tgn.
Bro, is today the last day of this 30% off thing going on?
Or are we got until tomorrow?
So basically, right now, it will be until the end of the week until
friday but it takes a couple days to for the money to get onto your account if you make it
so right now if you wanted to buy it yourself it would be uh slightly too late but
it would be slightly too late, but there are like,
the guy I was telling you about, the one who my father has known for 15 years,
the head of marketing, he obviously has quite a lot of money constantly on the account.
And so he offers like, you send him the money and he'll send you the code.
So it's with the discount because he can do that immediately but if you're not if you don't
want to trust someone on the internet like that which is a completely valid
thought then it is a bit too late for 30% discount but at the same time if the
price is 1.6 cents and it's currently
selling for between four and nine depending on the time, that's still a
great return on investment even if... Okay, then give people a rundown of what this is for those who don't know.
Okay, so everyone, what is Corsair exactly? It's basically a company that can recycle
any plastic. Like in Nigeria,
they recycle a lot of bottles, and in India too, and other countries as well. But this is any
plastic. They can take it from the ocean anywhere. And they recycle it at extremely high temperatures,
which means that they manage to make it in a way where it doesn't pollute at all. This means that
as they recycle plastic, they can generate plastic credits.
And this plastic, when recycled, turns into a few materials,
but mainly pyrolysis oil, which is sold to Shell,
and a few other materials that are also sold to other companies.
Basically, they manage to get revenue from selling this plastic,
and they get revenue from us because we make orders asking them to recycle plastic right now Let's say I made an order for a hundred euros. They would recycle
900 kilos of plastic over the next two years as they recycle this plastic they are generating carbon plastic credits, which are similar to carbon credits and
Because I'm the one who made the order, they send these plastic credits to me.
And I can then sell them on the market.
These are then bought by either companies who want to become plastic neutral, just like carbon neutral.
Or Corsair itself that uses 10% of their profit from selling pyrolysis oil to Shell.
They use 10% of that profit to buy pyrolysis oil to Shell. They used 10% of that profit to buy back carbon
plastic credits from the market.
last year it was basically the exact same offer where the price in the beginning of the year was one cent and
around 700 euros worth up till now for like a bit more than 3000 euros,
which is like a nice five X.
And this year it's about the same thing.
And the best thing about this is not only is it a great return on investment,
you're also helping the environment because you're making the world a cleaner place which
is extremely important with all the plastic in our world one of the biggest
problems currently and they have seven plants that do this recycling in four
different countries Thailand Philippines Indonesia Indonesia, and Finland. And they are planning to expand to over 150 factories, plants,
within the next couple of years.
And so it's going to boom.
And as it does, the profit that they get from selling the oil
will also increase exponentially,
which will increase how much they're buying back from the community,
which will maintain the price or even increase it depending on different factors.
So currently an amazing investment.
And I even last year, as the price increases, it increases by 0.1 cents every week.
So right now, if you try to buy it now, it'll be at if you try to buy it now it'll be at 1.6
next week it'll be at 1.7 cents etc and i last year bought throughout the whole year um so it's
not something that you and that's an opportunity that's missed if you miss like the beginning of
the year but right now it is definitely the best and so if anyone is interested you can dm me on x or um i actually created a telegram
i invited mk to it as well he joined up which was cool uh just to to explain everything and
to have everything written down so i don't need to explain it every time uh with a couple links
as well so if anyone's interested i highly recommend because I really do love the project and actually i'm super bullish right now because literally yesterday my grandfather
Who's uh, only invested into the s p 500 his entire life. He's like
If I was still in this project because I talked to him about corsair like a year and a half ago
He was like, yeah, you know,
I'm realizing that I want to,
that isn't just the S&P 500
and that actually helps the environment a bit.
Are you still in any of these green projects
that you've been talking about?
And I was like, you know, right now
is like the perfect time.
He was like, okay, I'll send you the money.
Cause I'm not at the age where I can figure all that out.
And so, yeah, he sent 3K for that.
So I was super excited to hear that because I've always been trying to get my grandfather
to invest into this because honestly, he has the money and he is always in the S&P 500,
which isn't ethical in any way.
And yeah, so very happy that he's always in the S&P 500 which isn't ethical in any way and yeah so very happy that is investing in the environment good on you bro I'm
boarding Gramps dude I that's actually smart way to go about it you just you
just do it for them and then like they deal with fiat cuz I've tried to
own board my grandparents bro I have and it's been such an uphill battle dude um and uh like you like dealing with all the wallets and stuff so it's
like but uh i had to do it for my mom for my aunt for my grandpa i've done it for many people
because they don't yeah not that generation yeah good for you bro good for you dude yo um quick
question here so they're selling the oil to companies like
shell and then i assume they're selling it to the consumer like is this stuff even sold at a premium
or because like what's selling it directly to the people who want to use like the petrol for example
and wouldn't because hyrolysis oil isn't usable directly it's the base material and so it's sold
at a dollar and ten cents per liter which is pretty high it's like in european countries
that's almost the price of petrol itself but it does have to go through a processing that companies like Shell can do extremely cheaply.
And it's extremely easy to distribute.
And they're giving a good price.
So they managed to get an exclusive contract where they will buy all the priorities oil for the next 10 years.
Which for a company like Corsair is very valuable because it's consistency.
Whereas if they're trying to sell it to the people,
which it might be better ethically,
and they might be able to get a tiny bit more money,
but it is also very hard for us people,
even or smaller, smaller companies,
And it would be more expensive to process it.
So they probably wouldn't even get a higher premium.
And there would be much less of a guarantee that everything they're recycling is bought,
which is important for a company like this because you need consistent revenue streams.
So when people say like you got this crazy return when you previously invested in it. And now they're launching another token. They do these tokens every year. And some people might be thinking like, well, that was previous year. How do you know this is going to do well?
Well, it sounds like from what you're saying that these partnerships that are in place are kind of ensuring the buy pressure of this token.
And right now, the token from last year, CSR25, the price hasn't gone down just because the CSR26 came out.
And they will continue buying back that one as well.
And they will continue buying back that one as well.
They've just now included CSR26 in it.
They've just now included CSR26 in it.
And as they increase the number of plants every year,
they can add the new token every time to the buyback program
without it affecting the amount.
And it would actually increase.
And they're also doing it for CSR, the base token,
And they're also doing it for CSR, the base token,
which was from before 2025.
which was from before 2025.
And so right now the price, for example, is,
I mean, I just sold for 6.7 cents
because you get 5% back in the first week,
5% of the tokens that you ordered basically.
And I sold those 5% at 6.7 cents.
So that's a clean six X and basically made back 5% at 6.7 cents. So that's a clean 6X
and basically made back 30% of my investment
from 5% of tokens, which is pretty cool.
it's obviously not a guarantee, right?
The price could go lower,
but I would say that the chance that it goes below, let's say two cents is extremely tiny.
And even that is a two X and in two years, a two X,
honestly, you're not gonna find like,
it's not bad for something that's based on real world assets
and the potential of it being an eight to six to five,
six, seven X, I think is worth it.
Can I jump in and ask something here, guys?
Mayan, are you like the main dev founder or are you in the team?
So this is a company that started in 2019, I think. And they're a
like $100 million company. I'm just someone who's in love with the project, and who really
believes in it. I know my dad used to like is the friend, like he's already known for 15 years,
the head of marketing. And I spent a couple weeks known for 15 years the head of marketing and i spent a
couple weeks with him and the head of marketing has been obviously to every one of these uh plants
which is why i trust it and love the project so much because i can actually believe i see it
from his videos that he's taken i see it and i know from the inside of the the company that
everything's working as it's supposed to and it's not just an elaborate scam or whatever
And so that's why I trusted and then talking about it, but no, I I am not affiliated
Like officially in any way, okay, no problem. Just just out of interest where you see I was I've got my kids now
I'm in and out, but it sounds very interesting. What's the project called again, please bro?
Corsair C-O-R. Oh, yeah. I remember you talking about him. I'm in and out, but it sounds very interesting. What's the project called again, please, bro? Corsair.
I remember you talking about it before.
I thought it sounded interesting last time as well, bro.
So Corsair Plastic Credit.
One question real quick to clarify.
So you would make a order, let's say, on the Corsair website,
and then you said there's a little delay,
like there's a little time before that's placed
and you receive your tokens?
Yeah. So basically, you make your order. It takes three days for the money to get there and then
you can make it. But then over the next two years, so right now they have obviously a lot of orders
from 2025 and 2024 that they're still filling out. And so right now you get 5% of the tokens after
the first week that you buy it, and you get another 5% after six months, another 15%
after the first year, and then 25% after a year and a half, and the last 50% after two years. So basically it does take two years for you to get everything.
But then no one can buy and rug real quick too.
So the idea of this is basically
if companies want to buy plastic credits they'll buy it over the
open market because companies and these boards they they can't write the the
whole thing in America which actually screwed out a lot of people with having
to prioritize investors money means that they can't actually buy like make place
the order for cheap on Corsair's
website. They have to buy from the market because they can't wait two years to get back their
credits. And so this is why it's a good investment for us because companies have to buy it more
expensive on the market and we can buy it cheaper because we can wait. Right on.
Thank you so much for bringing dope stuff in here.
I'm personally pretty bullish and I definitely want to make it happen and look into this
And I appreciate you and all that you do.
It's great to hear from when someone is like just genuinely passionate about something
and, you know, and is making a difference.
And I have to say the exact same thing for you, bro.
Your bullishness in every one of these spaces is insane.
And it makes me want to join the project so much, you know.
Hey, you applied for the ambassador program?
Yeah, looking forward to one-on-one, man.
Looking forward to that one-on-one.
Oh wow, you did not just say you're really excited
And you've actually forgot about it already
You're going to have to send him something
Hold up, that was a different
When you were talking about Coursera during our one-on-one
Yeah, because you said you didn't have enough time
To talk about the ambassador program.
I'm probably just going to shut up now.
No, we didn't talk about Coursera.
By the way, there's also a tree initiation.
There's more where that came from, bro.
Okay, how do I set up the one-on-one?
How do we set up the one-on-one?
Yeah, so there's a link at the end of the exam.
And then I also just dropped it in your DMs.
Yeah, Calendly is how you do one-on-ones. That's true. Yeah, you got it. Calendly thing. What's that? Is it the Calendly? Yeah.
Calendly's how you do one-on-ones.
I just know he's been dying to talk.
He's been in the back channels right now.
So sorry about that sound.
He's been in the back channels right now just saying, hey, I'd love to speak here.
So I just wanted to let you know, Jimmy, David.TGN whenever you get some free time.
He's up. Meta's all over it man that is all over that let's freaking grow much like what you said earlier i'm mainly leaving the buttons alone now but
you're also precious i only reason i brought you down the bike because i know you'd already spoken
it's that i saw david's uh so i do a part of that for pressing buttons but like i said if you were
tregen if you would chat you're gonna get a bit of preferential treatment now, bro.
We're getting to everyone.
We're getting to absolutely everyone who repost the room.
Guys, all right, let's get to these hands.
Oxygen has been here for a hot minute as well.
Or has been here maybe the longest.
Who's been here the longest?
First one to wave gets the mic what? First one to wave, guess the mic next.
Okay, Aura, I knew she was locked in.
Aura beat you by a millisecond, bro.
Positive Aura, how are you doing, my friend?
What's going on with you?
Yeah, I'm doing good ah yeah i'm doing good uh have we gone here any other spaces in the background today or are you just here today yeah
oh this is i think this is the next thing bro like three people's mics just unmuted that's that day
and it was we're just like hearing from people randomly and then they
tried to unmute and couldn't unmute dude like oh it's not just that i meant because or is that
busy every time you hear her she's that much of a hard worker all you can hear in the background is
you're like bro you're definitely in five of the spaces aren't you go and kill it
thank you so much tg and cg and trigence tg meter tg and the growing muni tree yes i got it right
today tg and every speakers i'm sorry it's not pride but i'm having good i'm having good
thank you so much uh first of all big
shout out to three james for hosting this space i respect to meta and grow muni tree
for co-hosting and keeping the conversation meaningful
my name is positive horror i'm a web3 educator, a space host, and a moderator.
sorry. I was trying to give hearts.
Your fat fingers in there.
Move over, bro. Carry on, Aura. We got you.
Too many hearts, dude. I messed up with the buttons.
Please unmute. Please unmute. Okay, continue.
Well, you know what I heard that title well you know what I heard that it says my work is
really about people just like three jets is about threes my work is about people
it's the one thing I've noticed them were free is this a lot of people they are
interested in we're free but they are curious they want to learn but there is one thing they get overwhelmed very
fast with the buzzwords ah okay down the fight they don't know they don't want to get involved
in that you know everything feels technical everything feels rushed and sometimes it doesn't
just feel uh welcoming so what i perceiveora, do is slow things down.
You see, I break Web3 into simple human conversations.
I create safe spaces where people can ask questions,
learn at their own space,
and actually understand what is going on.
I host daily spaces by 3 p.m west african time and my space is focused
on education onboarding growing and real community conversations no unnecessary hype just clarity
consistency and growth we keep growing so as a moderator i also have keep discussions focused
So as a moderator, I also help keep discussions focused. I mean, respectful and engaging.
So everyone feels hard. I mean, not lost. So I am open to collaborations and partnerships,
especially with purpose-driven communities like 3GENS. I mean, projects that care about
long-term impacts, not just just noise so if you are building something
meaningful and you want people to truly understand it not just hear about it i would love to connect
with you once again thank you three gents thank you merah thank you grow muni tree thank you to
other speakers talk thank you to all the listeners thank you all for really thank you
i'm gonna not like i'm not gonna lie jimmy you know you all know i got love for aura but halfway through that you're making me feel a bit emotional you're all
like i'm i'm really trying i could tell you tried so hard but not feeling well so i wish you you
you know even halfway through that i could hear as you were a bit happy you smiled you were
sounding better man so it's nice to see that dude Dude, yeah. Like, Aura's got a cold, and I think this was your best pitch yet.
Like, you went into way more details, and you did slow it down.
And this is when it's important to work hard, isn't it, Jimmy?
You know, when you don't want to work hard, that is when you get the most success, in my opinion.
When you want to work hard, it's easy, isn't it?
Especially if you pick something you like.
But when it isn't, you know, like, today for me me i'm not ill like you are unfortunately unfortunately i guess but you
know what so you have a little man got things to do but you know when you're still working hard
it's hard but we're out here doing aren't we so all right get better well soon and that was a cool
pitch very cool pitch let's grow aura positive aura one-on-one i i 101 i was in your spaces
earlier and it was uh it was a vibe
absolute vibe so yeah guys make sure you're locked in with aura let's get to more of these hands all
right um by the way tomorrow's an impact concert don't miss out on the impact concerts already
scheduled up there in the garden um but uh but but we're not stopping there you know uh on the
actual earth day see tomorrow is monthly earth day right every 22nd we're not stopping there, you know. On the actual Earth Day,
see, tomorrow is Monthly Earth Day, right?
Every 22nd, we're celebrating Earth Day.
But on the main Earth Day, April 22nd,
make sure you're locked in with Monthly Earth Day
because he's organizing Bass Forest,
which is going to be raising a lot of awareness
So we got to all take massive action on the main Earth Day.
But for every monthly Earth Day, let's do something.
It can literally be as simple as picking up one piece of plastic outside your place.
Like, come on, we can all do something, right?
But I'm pretty sure you guys eat fruit, you know, and fruit got seeds.
And you can germinate those seeds and you can plant those seeds, you know, and fruit got seeds and you can germinate those seeds and you can plant those
seeds, you know, in your backyard or on your balcony or, you know, in a community garden.
Like, you know, I feel like everyone can do something. And so let's all do something for
the world. And much love to Easy for organizing this Impact concert. I'm super grateful for you,
bro. I see we had Juan inan uh in the audience your dynamic duo
let's grow um i see a shout out quick shout out to regen avocado who i see down in the audience
awesome person as well avocado yo are you i feel like i may be wrong on this but region avocado
if you if you are a musician um we want to hear we want to hear your musical talents broski
i don't know why i got that vibe maybe maybe this is from the the from the let's grow live days but
um but yeah anyway uh all all you musicians i know there's a lot in here you know uh make sure
you're you're connecting with easy and just kind of line something up uh izo bro we got to hear from you man um so oh i see
regena vikardo i have just like modified if he's been at ages and he's a wizard but i just seen
regena vikardo's down there he's a real g that is some cool stuff as well aren't they jimmy
oh you're there jimmy hit me up in the DMs if you want to possibly, you know, jump up tomorrow.
We have a schedule somewhat locked in, but there will be space.
We're kind of going to open it up towards the end for a free-frawl.
Bring up any musicians in the TreeGen community that want to come in, you know, spit some bars, sing a song, play guitar, play the flute, spoken word.
Let's get to more people.
Yo, Regent Avocado, welcome back.
No, I'm just a karaoke king these days.
I don't know why I thought you were in Taiwan
Were you getting down with
over there? Taiwan! That wasn't
did. Dude, I experienced karaoke like I've
never experienced in my life, bro, and I grew up
in Japan, dude. I spent seven years in Japan.
They love it over there, don't they?
Bro, they get, like, Taiwan's fire.
First of all, it's like Japanese culture with a Chinese language.
But anyway, so, like, they have this karaoke.
It was like this massive LED screen, right?
And people are, like, you know, doing the thing where they pick a song and go up and sing, right?
Except you're singing on this stage.
There's this giant LED screen behind you, and it's doing all this crazy stuff.
And people are like giving you money.
Like everyone has like this currency.
Oh, you're a stripper, man.
Yeah, so they're like tipping the singer, right?
And they're like leveling up.
And like the singers are leveling up, but also the tippers are leveling up.
So they all have like this leaderboard point system crazy cool
Animations so people are just like giving serious money to these karaoke singers and it was like this fun competitive
Like I've never experienced money to move to Japan Jimmy. We might be missing out a trick here
Japan's like the goats of karaoke but like like Taiwan, that's what I thought.
Taiwan does it different.
they're like the Ethereum of karaoke.
That's a hundred percent.
how do we get our hands on your amazing,
Okay. Yeah. Thank you for bringing that up. You can just DM me. We're basically in between,
we haven't set up anything on our website yet, the Refi Cachulia website. So I'm just taking
like direct orders. So if anybody wants to follow and DM and basically we can ship like five liter containers, like that is the ideal size.
Anything lower than that, it's kind of like not really cost effective.
So if anybody out there wants to support our regenerative efforts.
Olive oil is a great way to do that.
And I think right now the real opportunity
is to tell the story of why this olive oil
is really different and really special
because we're growing it in a way that nobody else is.
And I mean, I don't know how i don't know what who the crowd is
here in terms of oh we want to hear a little bit i'll tell you what give it real concisely how do
you do it what's special what's different and what's good for the earth please bro we do want
to know yeah so most of the olives grown is in a monoculture and of course there's what's that for for lay people
i i don't even know i'm not gonna lie what's the monoculture in one type of culture is when you're
just growing one thing and so think of like an olive garden olive grove it's just olive trees
and most of the time if it's um grown industrially there's going to be a lot of chemicals, a lot of pesticides, a lot of fertilizers.
So, for example, in Spain, which Spain is the largest producer of olive oil, they're doing it in a very industrial way.
The trees that they've planted are very young.
that they've planted are very young. And so the taste shows up in the oil because the roots haven't
been established. The soil is not great. The trees are stressed. And then where we're at in Sicily,
it's a little bit better because we have like smaller family farms. So think of like under a
thousand trees. Anywhere from, you know, a family would have maybe 40
trees in their backyard, which would be enough to supply the family, maybe have a little bit more
for family and friends to sell to. And so everybody here is doing some like olive oil
business where they're they've got like, you know, friends germany or friends in france or wherever and so there is um this
kind of like uh i wouldn't call it a black market because it's just very um bespoke and so you want
to buy any olive oil bro yeah and so the stuff that you're getting from the store like and there's
a lot of controversies like you don't know if it's getting cut with like seed oil
from Morocco, like, you know, like there's some shady stuff going on. And so that's an olive oil,
bro. That's how bad it's getting, you know? Oh, it is. It is getting really bad. And so you really
don't know what you're getting when you order it. Like, like, forget the act, like the growing
methods. Like you don't even know what's in the container. And so, um, we're going like way beyond that. We're going way beyond
anything that anybody's doing over here, because one thing that we're doing is we're mulching the,
the branches that get pruned. And so right now, um, January, February is the key time for, um, pruning because you have to prune these olive trees back or else they get like really bushy.
The olive tree is actually, I think, technically a bush.
But so what we're doing is we are we're basically chipping and decomposing the branches on site.
So that's going back to build up soil quantity
and soil quality. Meanwhile, most people, because it's just cheaper and easier in the short term,
is they just burn everything that they cut. And then the other thing that's really critical is
in the springtime, end of spring, beginning of summer, when everything starts to get really dry,
they will go through with the tractor and till the land, till, T-I-L-L, they will till the land,
basically turning up the soil. And that kills all the microbiology in the soil. And that's what
creates, like the difference between soil and dirt is soil is alive because there's, you know, the whole soil food web going on.
So when it gets tilled, all that like dies, the soil turns to dirt and the trees suffer.
And as these summers get more intense and hotter, the trees start having more issues.
And so what we're doing is instead of tilling, we're actually cover cropping,
we're cutting the grass, and then eventually we'll start grazing. And so the last thing I'll just mention is that we are interplanting. So we're going from monoculture to
polyculture to centropic agroforestry, which means centropic means over time, it starts to
resemble a forest because we're planting more types of trees. And we are, and I had to double check this too. I had to ask
around, but to my knowledge, and I'm, and I'm pretty sure this is accurate. Our farm, Butterfly
Hill is the only farm that's growing both olives and avocado trees and tropicals in the same system.
and avocado trees and tropicals in the same system.
And don't you guys do something like recycling the waste from the actual pressing as well?
That is something we would love to do.
We still need to upgrade our infrastructure.
So basically our biggest blocker right now is we need bigger trucks.
We need actual uh what are they
called uh yeah we basically need the ability to transport more matter because right now we're
basically doing it very like small scale where we've got like a little hitch in a trailer and so
um even though there is a big um olive press right down the street
like it's a it's a big pain to to transport all that stuff so the next goal would be we would
invest in our own olive press which would be the next level up in our bioregional business
development plan hey bro you know why there's a bit of space there that's cool answer
you guys are doing some cool stuff this is a bit out of left field and it's half a joke and half
not right but you know obviously we've got like we all know you know the stereotypical the bees
are part of the ecosystem if they die everything that's another i'm saying it's a big important
part of it but we've all heard that before right now i'm just wondering right are there many other
because you guys are down on the floor yeah you actually see this you know this you know we just well a lot of us are just thinking about it
supporting you guys you see it right are there any other kind of key key animals that are part of
you know not just uh re-trying tree but replanting trees regenerating the the parts that you need to
work as a lot of farmer and you know the job is i would love to have like you know you get these
magpies and that people have them and they come back and bring silver well imagine if like
we could train a little bird that we knew all day like we just had a little tray of seeds and
you're just flying out and planting trees around where we live that would be so cool bro like could
we train a bird to do this yeah so to answer your question um there's a few animals that are really
critical um because there's already um a lot of like sheep and goat herding and and that is also a big
um cause of the like the the landscape fires because you don't know like maybe sometimes
they'll start a fire to uh the the the um well we all know how everything because it's a bit of a
weird problem isn't it because you got the actual industries going over there and destroying and taking the land so then the
actual people that live on the land up are having to take back more land to end up having their land
so you've got a really vicious cycle there haven't you like until you actually break that cycle more
people just kind of fighting over the land because the other side's taking the land from them is
crazy isn't it well this is more of the older...
I mean, there's a lot of things going on below the surface
where you don't necessarily know if it's just run-of-the-mill shepherds
or if there's, like, mafia involvement.
But there is, like, land disputes a bit.
And so we are in a centropic agroforestry system where we have
like very straight lines on the farm. Can you say centropics? Can you say that again, bro?
Centropic what? Sorry. It makes it really easy to do rotational grazing where we can be moving
sheep and goats through the landscape at like intervals. And so they're eating the grass and then that is helping to build up
the soil um the soil health and then also too on this some specific farm we do have a large
retention pond and before putting in the um this agroforestry site um a little over a year ago it
was um grain production and then like heavily chemical melon production and so once we put in the this
agroforestry system like all these bird species started coming back egrets
and so it's like a big hub of like bird wildlife and
also frogs and so next I want to get some some ducks and geese in the pond and
The issue there is like just having dogs not eat them.
You better make sure you get some quick ducks, bro.
Yeah, get some mean ducks.
We know some yucky ones, though.
We have got some yucky ones, if you're interested.
We have to get the humans able to respect other forms of life.
Because right now, most of the landowners are just caring
about the bottom line of how much money they have to spend to get that olive oil out the door and so
we really want to show that by having like stacking more functions into the system that it's actually
going to be more productive but it'll be more robust to be there
for longer right bro rather than the stuff they're doing now it might just give them money now but
it's quite a short time thinking isn't it yeah because if you have a fire coming through and
your farm gets burnt down then there's no there's nothing no one to help you whereas if you got that
eat that infrastructure what i said this about you know how i like to make links between communities because
and this has actually happened i said all this in the last cycle and people i think some people
don't yeah whatever but then there was actual time where some of our partner projects you know they
got really badly hurt on the chart and you know i was like yo guys listen it's actually a discount
for you let's go over there support our friend and bang we got the chart going again we move in the
other direction and you know i know that's a web 3 example but in web 2 you know there's no reason even each family you know in
my opinion families should be that for one another i said i'm not gonna lie i had a bit of an argument
with my neighbor this morning because he was like my car was literally like half a foot on a shared
path and he came out a bit not big way but i was like bro bro please i'm doing this bro and anyway
in the end i went out i told him to just go away then i come back out later and i saw him right and i went out to
him i'm like bro only reason i was a bit like that is because i've helped you out with so many things
bro yeah you know if there's a problem with your house you would get robbed or anything i will be
straight there i'll protect you i'll protect your family so brother all i'm saying is ease up on
that you know what they actually laughed along with me they're like
you know we didn't realize it broke down and did it now it can be easy as that can't it like
sometimes we can get into silly argument with people where we can just say you know what guys
why don't we all just help each other it'd be so much easier wouldn't it sorry jimmy
i do have to call the spaces here pretty soon and i want to make sure that everyone gets a chance to
uh to say something so let me pass the mic around real quick.
I have not yet really heard from Izo, but my grow host also has his hand up.
So Growmunity, did you want to say something, brother, before we get to Izo real quick?
That's the first time I've heard you speak, Sister Growmunity.
You must be doing the same.
Yeah, he's in a place you can speak.
All right, Ezo, grow ahead, buddy.
The community is actually here.
I've actually been with my son every single day for like the last six, seven months.
I'm actually been with my son every single day for, like, the last six, seven months.
He's going to be leaving for about three months before his mom comes out here.
She runs an apothecary called Keep It Spicy.
And so I'm going to be connecting her on the avocado grow.
I think that's something that she might be interested in.
But personally, I don't really shill this a lot because it's been in kind of like the
building stages. And I kind of get nervous to shill because I this a lot because it's been in kind of like the building stages.
And I kind of get nervous to shill because I know a lot of people on Web3.
I don't want to say a lot, but some people like they take ideas or whatever, blah, blah, blah.
But I'm in the I'm in a confident stage to where I'm willing to share.
So I run a company called Clouds and Crowns, which is everyone in life goes through rain or sunshine.
But we all have to climb our own personal ladder to get to our own crown.
In Arizona, I've done events, dollar shows, food drives, different things like this to
get back to the community.
And so I was heavily pushed into Web3 because I know there's not a lot of spaces for artists.
three because i know there's not a lot of spaces for artists so um beyond the token that i wanted
to launch which would be a tax token that goes into um the game that is in creation it would
also be staking for nfts and then also um we would do um giveaways kind of uh kind of like the plastic
kind of like the plastic a little bit, or it's not plastic, but the touch grass where
a portion of it goes to kids and youth that actually want to touch grass. But in our case,
it would actually be art supplies. So I know there's a lot of unfortunate kids who, you know,
they want to record music or they want to paint or they want to dance or they want to do these types of things. So I'm actually building a platform where people go over their
mental health as well, because I think that's also very important, whether it's like breathing
exercises or meditation, also a marketplace to where artists can actually sell or do courses as well.
So this whole ecosystem would feel itself.
And I'm looking for builders to help connect with like Raiders, mods.
First, you know, the foundation is way more important.
I think kind of like Meta said, like helping and building with other communities is very, very important.
kind of like Metta said, like helping and building with other communities is very, very important.
So I'm looking for, you know, different people who are interested into anyone who wants to learn
how to record more or do different dances or do different things. I have a lot of
friends and artists that, you know, do sound bowl meditations or all these different things. So
I'm excited to bring them into Web3. I know a lot of different gamers like i have a friend who's like
top ranked on call of duty another friend you know all these different things like me
yeah right uh i was i was a madden guy myself i was number uh what's that madden yeah for football
i'm not from the usa but i did try because i always thought it looked like such a cool game
and i had no idea what was going on bro yeah because you guys you guys have the other football you guys have the
real football that's why yeah it's a foosball soccer um so yeah no i definitely oh and i do
for the uh the discord thing so i also have had this conversation before i do believe discord is like the the ui or the
the look of it i can't stand it oh it ain't great looking it looks like it was made about 30 years
ago right i don't know i don't understand why but because it's made by a nerd and he's like
meant to be a server so nerd you know yeah and so i have a lot of uh i don't say a lot of so i have uh my nephew right and his friends
they all use discord right i know that the younger generation like they record is that
are they the age of playing like minecraft and stuff is minecraft uh fortnight and also like
other you know other discord or whatever but i do think that having one uh would be an addition
i do love telegram, personally.
I do love what they're doing in Telegram.
I do believe that the rush back to Telegram in the next couple years...
Oh, it's going to be dramatic, isn't it, bro?
So I do think having both would be beneficial.
I do also think that the way Telegram has ran for TreeGens,
like the way you guys have it set up, I don't see a lot of telegrams that organized so is there you know
could yours like I think you've got quite a violent perspective that riddle me
this thing because this is my feelings with it right like telegram very fast
very nice mean people already there that kind of stuff yeah the other thing
that really different for me you know when I wake up in the morning and I
realize I fall asleep on my phone and probably everyone's wondering who i am and i pop into discord
oh bro i'm not gonna lie guys i'm so excited to just drop that little gm in there because it's a
real community i know people are gonna bum bum bum and you know there'll be depth and i can check
back later and i'm gonna be able to see this and someone might have gone to build in a different
oh it's so nice bro i just love that feeling so for a real community like tree gens
that's why i kind of like that it gives that depth of feel it gives you an expansion like
you're walking i agree i i definitely agree i think the look of discord itself but you can
make it look better though bro i mean go and look at the wizard it's not not necessarily like the ui
but actually like having a discord in itself oh yeah is not is not a notable yeah
it's like you want to you want to see a telegram discord x github you want those main things even
if you go and look and they're not amazing as long as they've got them and they've got footfall
coming through it's another angle of free marketing to a degree isn't it absolutely i absolutely agree
um so yeah i'm just looking for uh builders for builders to help build. I'm working on some
investments and different things like that. I'm excited to possibly try to get some land this year,
which would be the first piece of land I've ever, I've had personally. I have people in my family
who has, but yeah, I'm just excited to kind of build and grow if I can. I want to pop something
in the purple pill. Is there, you know, just before you sign up, i can um i want to pop something in the purple pill is there you know
just before you sign up i'm sure you want to go one more time i did just want to give one kind of
backings to jimmy's methodology and where he's at because because i've had one and you know is those
kind of similar minded um what i did want to say is as much as we're here saying you know kind of
grab all of it guys what i'm kind of saying is grab all the handles yeah have them set up have
them like they did a pathway you don't want them turning up and it looks ridiculous like there's
nothing in here but all i'm saying is there is something to be said for focusing um the majority
of your pushes to you know single straight up for me i want everyone mainly to be on my ex you know
my exes and on my discord so if i choose that to be telegram i would
still have both but the main thing if jimmy prefers telegram and that works out better for
him and he partnerships it's not enough enough of a difference in my opinion to not go for it i think
discord better but that's my preference isn't it so if you are gonna make a choice all i would say
is you know do your research find out what's coming in the front like what tree jen said
Commit to it because there's what's the worst that can happen you transfer over to the other one, you know, so Jimmy
I definitely agree. I definitely think that the like for my suggestion
Reactivate the discord that you already have and then initiate mods over there and then just let the community go to where it's comfortable
but do the same steps in discord that you do in telegram and i don't know if you've seen a problem
before that you've got a lot more people in the community now well more eyes more people and
loads of people if you put up a post saying look we're looking for a few more mods now
we can't pay much can we plan in trees it's all going in you would have loads of people that would still come and help, you know
Absolutely, there's a lot of people
There's a lot of people that spend more time on discord on
Kind of like discord maxis and then
Telegram maxis and then there's people that go between more freely
But you do have a chunk of people and maybe that's earlier people that are more comfortable on discord
And they're not going to go to telegram because in 2019 they got scared and you know that isn't it because for me like i much i don't really
mind like you say but i know there's people that literally when we've just set our discord back up
i haven't seen these people for six seven months and i really like them too and then they just
showed up on the weather for you being there they said bro i told you i wouldn't go telegram you for real i actually thought yeah
no some people really are like that's stubborn you didn't want to go so for that reason like
is a very cleverly said you know in my opinion how i've done it i built them i'm pushing more
toward discord but if i weren't going to do that i would just have both put the mods in them and
like you say see where it goes the telegram the telegram might take off or the discord might take off but at least you've kind of a b split tested
them and then you can ask the community which one did you like spending the most time in and then
i would just keep one as like our telegram is literally for the trade bots it's for the leader
board and then everything else all general chat everything like that is in discord so because of
that you end up with two clean things you end up with you know you're on your telegram side and people that go there they
know it's you can be spam with trades it can be spam with the bots and whereas if you go to discord
you have a proper chat you're going to find out what's happening in the project i just think
having that kind of split workflow it means that you can design wherever they're and ending up if
i'm going to send them to this place it's because we want to onboard them in this manner it's got that info if you're going to send them to telegram maybe
they're more like my example they're more experienced they want to trade you know they
don't care what they're looking at they like that ui and it also means anyone that only likes
telegram they're going to go there anyway over spoke i think there's some good ideas for all of
us uh region of akagro i'm glad you came back up because yeah i i sent you my whatsapp let's get connected on there and um uh i won't speak anymore but just so you know that bulk
cumin bullish are both wizards and i did want to see bulk with it but other than that i'm not
on a tour um i um yeah i want to help this uh this avocado business get distribution and i know people that literally distribute um
italian food across the world including avocado so what kind of size project is regen avocado
because you've been a couple times you're on chat but i don't actually know that much of them i know
what you do but i don't actually know where are you at in the business you know have you are you
web3 fully integrated where do you mind explain it? Do you mind if he explained it? Yeah.
Perfect segue because, um, I just published an article. I pinned it to my profile.
Um, but I just run that out guys for him.
Let's run that up for him.
I, I think I, um, put it in the comments, but I'm not sure how to put it in the Jumbotron.
in the jumbotron can you pin that for him please jimmy because i can't do it so basically we are
Can you pin that for him please, Jimmy?
at the stage of planetary evolution where we are able to coordinate um at larger scales and
the goal here is that we have to create an economy that regenerates the ecology. And so I've been working over the past few years. Well,
I got my degree in environmental economics and basically realized that that system was broken.
And so since 2008, when I graduated, I've been on this path of figuring out what is the solution.
And so this has been a very long journey. And finally,
we're kind of getting to the point where reality is catching up to theory. And so what I am, I mean,
I'm a self-described bioregional developer, but that is like, it's a made up term because the job
doesn't exist yet because there's nobody paying for it. but it's absolutely what we need in terms of planetary
regeneration to be developing at the bioregional level. And of course, this is all nested and
fractal. And so whatever I'm doing, me personally in my backyard is like helping an aggregate to do
planetary regeneration. And so we've got to design systems in this nested fractal structure.
And so we've got to design systems in this nested fractal structure.
And so a bioregional economy operates in this way.
And so bioregionalism has existed since the 1980s, and the permaculture community has
been developing this, but we haven't had the infrastructure to scale it until distributed
decentralized digital systems. And so my whole theory of change is that we can build
bioregional blockchain economies that taps into the entrepreneurial spirit, the artisanal spirit,
and we can actually create all of these really interesting businesses that are interoperable
with each other. Because at the end of the day, if I'm building
furniture or a boat or a house, all of this depends on the natural capital that is both
limited and abundant, right? Nature is constantly regenerating itself. And so I've just published
this article basically going through a 10-year business plan of what kind of businesses and what kind of
investment is needed to actually kickstart this economy. Because it's not just like a silver
bullet. It's not just one thing. This is like large-scale mobilization, but it has to be at
the individual level, right? Like,
I can't be creative for you. Everybody's got to bring their own creativity in a way that like
speaks to their special purpose and their their artistic talent, because everybody's an artist in
a unique way. So I've just put together this business plan most of like just as a, as a,
like just an exercise, right? Like we all have to get better at making
realistic business plans. And it's really difficult because how do we value nature?
How do we value community? Um, all of this, like government money is funny. Like inflation is
kicking in who knows like how much things are going to cost in dollars or euros or yen or whatever
at 10 years from now. And so I think the funny thing,
it makes it quite hard to even plan your business. Doesn't it regen, you know, with inflation,
when you think, geez, are we even going to want to afford that? Or is that going to be a problem
in five years? It does actually change your plans. Yeah. So what's real is we have to get really good
at accounting for natural capital. Right. So if I plant a tree, like I know that tree is going to
be there and I can kind of plan out in 10 years like what that forest is going to look like because I'm building in resilience.
So it's going to be able to both withstand drought, both withstand any type of like disease pest because we're building in biodiversity.
We are repairing the watershed, the biotic pump like we understand how nature works so we've got
to build our businesses like nature and we've got to be able to work together so
that my business isn't competing with yours and we're doing this in a way
that's holistically repairing the watershed in the bioregion so please do
go read that article it's a it's like 10 minute read but the goal here is just
to start working on on this practice of how do we make regeneration the most investable, highest yield generating thing on the planet?
Because all of these Ponzi's, all of these get rich quick schemes, all of these token games that have been playing in the blockchain space, they're going to zero.
And there's so many potential for investment
but we just have to work together and so that's uh that's the key ingredient is the the collaboration
and uh and that's why i'm here because this is a very collaborative space and i like sharing um
the the ideas here and like this isn't just ideas like we're actually implementing this on the
ground i wouldn't be here just talking bullshit this is like been a very long time oh we believe
that we've done the work um but now that we've got like for example we've done a two hectare
pilot project with the centropic agroforestry site so now we we know very clearly what our costs are. And so it takes about 10,000 euros to install one hectare. And we're getting that cost down. Like I said, we get the right tools, we get the right scale, we do things at the right time. We're able to do it a lot quicker.
We've got our own greenhouse. So that's like been a really great infrastructure piece where we don't have to spend so much money on buying trees and we can actually earn income from selling trees to people in our in our neighborhood.
And we're also doing like the permaculture and agroforestry design for them.
but also too, like we should be asking for a million dollars because we know like it's not just the agroforestry is one thing,
but, you know, we can be tying in tourism, tying in education, tying in all of these other business models.
And so in the in the article, I've basically designated seven key businesses, portfolio projects, and they all tie together. And so this is just kind of like
the first pass, first draft. But the goal is, you know, people can bring their own businesses to
this and plug in. And so that's kind of how it has to work. We've got our own issues on the ground
here where like mass tourism, overdevelopment, there was just like a huge cyclone that came and
like uh fortunately we're on the other side of the island but um on the east side of sicily
uh near catania that side got like really like heavily damaged but you know if you're building
your house on sand and the fucking storm surge comes like what do you expect is going to happen
and so i think these are just like it's going to continue to intensify, like, you know,
from ecological impact, but also like geopolitical, like, we don't know what's going to happen.
And so we've got to be like developing our circular local economies to be resilient.
You know, if the internet goes down, we got to have like backup, like area network where
at least we can communicate with our neighbors.
And so it doesn't have to be doom and gloom.
It's just you build for resiliency and grow from there.
But there's so much potential.
I mean, this is the the best the best news is that this is all like what we want to make out of it.
Right. We can we can bring in our intention and we can actually like manifest it and in a way that's bringing more life for everybody
and is like puking so I gotta sort this out real quick so I'm gonna be back. You guys, you guys I see you up here. My girlfriend just got super sick and is like puking.
So I got to sort this out real quick.
You guys, you guys, you talking.
I know Peter's had his hand up.
Didn't guess where you just stand, son?
No, I was just going to fill the air and make sure the room keeps moving.
He's had his hand up for a bit. And then, then you know raised your hand if you want to add to the
conversation that makes it a little easier for us to manage all right thank you uh i would like to
i have a question for regen avocado so i i've been listening in on your conversation but my twitter has been rugging a
little bit so but yeah i think i could still pick up a thing or two from everything you said
you said you're practicing mono um let's say mono agriculture and then on the long term you
you're hoping to shift to poly agriculture and that's like you're just planting strictly olives for the moment then
yeah and then I went through that the other farmers are doing the monoculture we've been
able to institute even a polyculture system with both the normal Mediterranean species like olives
and almonds and figs with more tropical okay hey real quick when you're on stage here uh just when use a walkie-talkie method so like
basically when you're talking real quick uh unmute yourself when you're not talking that way you
don't get reverb when other people are chatting beep beep copy over all right all right no problem thank you peter were you able to hear from
regen avocado they they are the opposite of doing monoculture um if you're able to yes i was i was
i was able to hear so my question now is from um the pinch actually been post on your ex i saw that and you're in
sicily and um you said it was either certificated i um land as essentially there's there's a bit of
challenges with the soil and you're trying to essentially bring it back to life yeah
and um from the list of crops you mentioned
because i did a bit of agriculture myself before i went to med school
there are certain crops that add nutrients to this particularly for soils that have
or already started losing its nutrients essentially the ones you said that they're
certified already so how exactly do you plan to
incorporate that into your agricultural system such that because from the list of crops you mentioned
they kind of take nutrients from the soil but that kind of also depreciates the soil a bit more further
than it already is so how do you fix the whole enriching the soil process? I just want to know. That's a
good question. I don't know if you're familiar with the soil food web, but there is a very
famous woman called Dr. Elaine Ingham, and she's like kind of doing the most cutting edge soil research. But basically, there's this whole soil food web that is bacteria, mycelium, anthropods, like everything is down in there doing the dirty
jobs. And so to your point of like nutrient depletion, we're not doing any like intensive
horticulture, like we're not growing veggies just yet. But one of the things that is really
important that we're doing is we're planting nitrogen fixing trees. And so we've got both
acacia selenia, which is growing really quickly. And that helps to like both provide shade and
a biomass accumulator because we prune heavily with those trees. So that's creating a lot of mulch,
because we prune heavily with those trees.
So that's creating a lot of mulch, woody material.
And the root system fixes nitrogen.
So there's like a micro rhiza that is helping to basically convert nutrients
into a way that the plant's roots can absorb the nutrients from the soil.
Because right now it's like super heavily
compacted clay. And over time, as we continue to bring in more nutrients and compost and do this
like chop and drop method, the more it's going to turn into like more softer, like more nutrient
dense that we could start to do more, um, more vegetable production.
Have you included biochar or do you have plans to, I know you mentioned people burn their, their cuttings and it would be more work, but if you could, uh, get some of those cuttings and,
uh, you know, turn it into biochar and add that maybe even a little inoculation, you could be,
uh, you know, speeding up that soil web.
Yeah, yeah, we did. We hosted a week-long event. Like, we kicked off this farm project with the week-long event in 2023, and we did do a little bit of a biochar situation. I agree that it's
beneficial. It's just, it's another process, and right now we're kind of like up to our knees and just like planting.
We've got two hectares and we're planting 1,000 trees.
And I think like somewhere between like 5,000 aromatic cuttings like bushes.
And so that's the other thing too that is really interesting about this installation
is that we've got a bunch of different trees, but we also
have this like a bush layer and full of aromatics, lavender, rosemary, sage. And so that actually
is a really big business potential because of the essential oils. And so just getting like a distillation machine and doing
that. We are kind of like our biggest, like I said, we're kind of like tools training and people
where we need to like dial in this, this operation because there's so many things to do. And,
and it's like, okay, what's like phase one, just getting these trees to survive and then planting everything. But we're also
doing this, like, I think probably the most critical point of this is that we're doing it on,
we're not even renting the land. It's just the guy who owns the land is just letting us do the
thing there. Nice. Yeah. And that's the other issue here about land ownership and speculation. And how do
we get to a point where, uh, we're stewarding as opposed to speculating. And so for me, like,
I think the only reason why this project has worked so far with this, like with this experimental
centropic agroforestry farm is there's three of us. Um, and we all bring something different to
And the other guy, the guy that owns the land, he's retired and he can't like be out in the field
working much because his, you know, he's got the body, you know, his body's breaking down.
And so we're all working together and it's a great practice on sharing and supporting and
humility. And like, you know, there's so many times that I
wanted to give up, but I'm like, you know, I, I, I want to see this to fruition. This is like,
this is do or die. And so giving up failure is not an option. And so for the first two years,
like everything we planted actually died. And, you know, we got like, you know, into arguments
and one of the two guys weren't talking to each other. And then eventually like, we, you know,
we got some grant money, more grant money, like keep on going. Like the community is the is the is the output, actually. And so by year three, we finally got the information from a course that was held. And one of the neighboring, like, we had to drive across the island to go to this workshop. But then we got all the key,
like the things that we were missing from our initial design.
And so that was like huge unlock.
and so we've just purchased another piece of land that resembles more of
And so that's actually owned by our,
a legal cultural association and it's an Italian legal cultural association. And there's like six people on the board. I'm not even on the board, which is the best part. I've totally decentralized myself, which is my whole goal is to, is. And so getting other people
into positions of decision-making,
some matching grant funds
from the Ethereum localism round.
And so in Rome in February,
there's actually going to be
basically meet the regions where they are and like, what pain points are they like experiencing
and then tapping into web three toolkit to like meet, meet their needs. And so that's,
that's going well. And then one layer up, we've got refi Mediterranean and we just wrapped up
So we're going to be getting like some matching funds there.
And what's great about that is those funds are going to be trickling down to every layer of the of the bioregional ecosystem because we've got about seven local nodes spread throughout
the Mediterranean, including ReFi Sicilia and ReFi Barcelona, traditional Dream Factory in Portugal.
And so everybody's getting a little piece of that.
The money is going to both the implementing partners,
the local refi nodes, and directly to the tree planters.
And so like we're banging on all cylinders.
It's just like, you know.
I'm so glad that you guys stuck through those first couple of rough years
And are you know making awesome strides um like to hear about the understory aromatics too
That's great for pollinating like you said another another possible source of some income
Uh, I see mk's had his hand up for a while and then maybe back to peter after mk mk. How you doing?
Hi guys maybe back to peter after mk mk how you doing hi guys good morning yeah what up mk man we had a late night last night didn't we man what's up bro
yeah it's a helping you man well like you sound still asleep bro have you just got up
4 20 but i got up oh that's a chad like that that's
a chad bro i have a question um you know we run a farm in china and we're collecting you know like
grass and stuff at the beginning which you know in one point i had to buy a saw to cut it through because it was impossible to turn
and then we we ai'd and you know china become quite hot especially on coffee on coffee production
and now we are collecting almost every day around 50 kilo of coffee grinds after they used it.
You know, the cafes, we have many and we still have many places to cooperate with.
So my question is, are you sort of thinking about that?
I mean, Italy is famous for espresso.
So, you know, we are mixing it with the sodas.
So it's amazing you know it's it's
it's creating amazing heat and it's you know which eventually we will use this compost to
to create a layer on top of our our um vegetable beds to to sort of silence the weeds
Are you are you considering or maybe you are doing it already? Thanks guys
Yeah, so that that was another question earlier of like how do we recycle the the organic waste streams?
It's just more of a matter of just getting a little bit more of a
Like workforce to do it and some infrastructure.
But, you know, this is a great story because I learned what I like the basis of what I
I actually learned because MK where MK is at, I actually spent two years working there
at a small boutique hotel and this like little small rice farming village, which gave me
the insight into how does an
agricultural society work, not just like from the farming perspective, but you've got to get the
whole community out there to plant the rice and harvest the rice or else everybody doesn't eat.
And you've also got all of these religious festivals and like a whole Cosmovision
installed in the operating system. But I will say the cool thing is, and I've included this in that
article, but Sicily is one of the few places, like not the only place that can grow coffee
in the EU. So coffee is definitely in the plan, shade grown and understory. And it, you know,
takes about two years to get to fruiting.
But I do have a lot of experience farming in the tropics, Central Latin America and Asia as well.
And so coffee is gonna be a big fun adventure
and there's already a producer in Sicily, Maretino.
And so it's just that nobody's doing all of this together. Even the avocado
farmers in Sicily, nobody's doing the integrated systems. And so that's going to be the big unlock
is growing everything together and getting those processes in place because everything has a time
and a season for everything. And so you can't like, you can't compete. If everybody's harvesting
grapes, like everybody's harvesting grapes, like don't even try to do anything at that time because that's what everybody's doing.
Same thing with the olive harvest.
So luckily, avocado harvest season is right after the olive harvest.
And the cool thing is that you can use the same olive press to make avocado oil.
And so like, boom, 2x the revenue right there like this is like the
game changer where you just get so much more production out of the land out of the machines
out of the communities and it's just like overall like less work and more time at the beach
ideally that's true yeah touch sand don't forget to touch sand peter uh also has i think has another question
had his hand up peter okay um actually it's not a question it's more of a proposition i was
thinking i mean trigen has um i don't know maybe you guys have a little of this before but trigen has plants too plants is it a billion trees and um
region avocado yeah you're basically planting um olive trees avocado trees and the likes
why not just i mean it's just a proposition here you sort sort of meet with Trigian. I don't know.
Whatever you guys can make possible.
You can do a video that would contribute to their space.
And essentially, you're helping them meet their goals.
And you're still doing what you love.
And from what I heard earlier, you still get to make a couple bucks just planting trees.
So it can be a win-win for you
just suggesting avocado where are you based at uh i'm in uh i'm outside of palermo in sicily
but to peter's point um so we actually had a uh a discussion about this a while ago because
the trees that we're planting currently we're using sylvie protocol as the kind of the DMRV,
both for the data collection and for the payouts. And so I think we kind of ethically, morally
decided to opt out of the double dipping. But I think that, and I've dedicated some avocados to Jimmy before, the media narrative I think is the big opportunity.
I mean, all of this is very experimental.
I think the challenge is there's a very competitive digital landscape
because there's like so many apps competing,
different chains, different
little niches. But overall, I mean, this is the other issue with this bioregional business plan
is a lot of these apps just need to be like open source modules that you can just plug in.
And so there's a lot of redundancy that hopefully over time will get sorted out. But I think that's
a great idea. And yeah, we, I got to, you know,
Jimmy and I got to put our, our, our little avocado and tree gin heads together and figure
out like, how do we, how do we get this to the next level?
Growlaboration, growlaboration. Love to see it.
100%. So many ways to growlaborate, you know, um, beyond DMRV, So many ways to growlaborate, you know, beyond DMRV.
So many ways to growlaborate.
And by the way, guys, I'm โ okay, you know what?
I was going to end the spaces because I have to kind of, you know,
But you guys, I feel like this conversation is moving so fluidly.
I love that you've stepped into the growhost role while growmunitry is slacking.
Now, okay, I know you're probably like, all right, add something really important. Hey, bro, Jimmy, I mean, I'm happy, you know, like easy i love you've stepped into the grow host role while grow munity is slacking now okay
i know you like probably like add something really important hey bro jimmy i mean i'm here
but you know because i'm in the background if you want to give easy the coast but i'm completely
cool with that bro uh well if anything i take it away from grow munity you can't even speak right
now okay yeah grow munity he tried to tell us he was touching on i mean the thing is though you
know if community can talk he is going to talk same as me
So he must have something he's doing
Oh he's doing something else with Graves right now I think
I assume you have while I was gone
I saw them in the context
I'm just here to celebrate
Yeah, very cool stuff happening
Thank you for sharing. Thank you for coming up and sharing
and putting all that writing together as well.
I see you with the Mycelium Network.
Mycelium Network on your profile.
Okay, I see you. the mycelium network. Mycelium network on your profile. Okay, I see you.
Well, I was happy to see the Octon round wrap up,
but it was a little sad to see some of the stats.
My guy, we need to change something.
Like, even with the Sylvie round, dude, it was 40 donors.
How many people made the round happen?
I would assume about 40 as well.
I don't know if this is a discussion for here,
but in my opinion, something is not working.
Of course, donor fatigue is a thing,
but this is not how we democratize.
Did you just say donor fatigue?
What are we talking about right now?
Good question. Thank you.
I switched context a little bit.
What I'm talking about is
impact slash public goods slash
real world goods slash like nature
and Web3 crypto blah blah
Oh, donut! I thought you guys were talking about donuts so i thought you were
talking about some mushroom donuts or something i was like wow i need some of these bro no no no
not at all that's not doing it anyway sorry the donut quadratic donut now we're in the room i get
you yeah so and then and then the the other aspect that i just want to um add real quick is with
octant it is technically still donors but what the people are donating is their rewards so meaning
the small donations don't even come from their own pockets it's like the cost is spending five
minutes or however long you want to spend and sorry i'm not going to interrupt you long civil
but this is what i would posit is a way we make really really big difference is when
we can make systems that are inherently pretty frictionless however every time there is some
kind of transactions and we can drive value to the causes so an example would be just an example
um say for example my project if we had our own decks something there that is actually generating
fees that could be a real world business.
Insert whatever clever way you know how to make money.
Once you actually insert mechanisms to make money, whether that's for charity or for profit, in my opinion, you make it a lot easier.
So imagine if I had a deck and then, you know, you have the little 2% fees you pay or whatever.
Imagine if every, if it's a tree deck, let's call it the tree decks.
Imagine if every single transaction, every single time it planted at least a few trees because you
know gonna be at least what a few you said it well how much did you say tree gens the other day is it
ten dollars a plant for those ones you have oh you're not there well anyway how much 10 cents
bro 10 cents so we say with 10 cents, every single transaction,
most people are going to pay like a couple of dollars.
You'll be planting each time you do it.
And it's not that hard to build these systems.
However, someone's got to be willing to do it.
And right now, that's us, the Tregenerates.
Yeah, I'm loving what we're doing.
I'm loving this chat too, man. you got some good people here bro so quadratic funding is amazing i was able to allocate my rewards which were like a few dollars and that turned into 0.48
ethereum um so the system is there is it bro do you want to explain to us how that works because
i'm i'm not that big into quadriding i'll be
honest i've no of it and i know some of the concept but i don't know that well could you
explain it to me bro quadratic funding i believe vitalik and maybe a crew of people came up with
this equation it's an equation and civil might be able to explain better i know that the more people that make small donations, the larger the outcome is from
the funding that's in said pool from the organization that has matching funds.
So through 10 people donating $2, you could get $2,000 towards your cause.
Whereas if one or two people donated like you know a hundred dollars it might
only be half that or less but civil go ahead take it thanks right right so real quick basically
where the magic so like how does two dollars turn into 200 is the question kind of and so the thing
is you don't just need the donations you also need a bigger matching pool fund so in order to make any of this happen
you need most of the time the round manager or whatever word you want to use to raise the
matching pool aka a pool of money where it's not totally clear where the money is going it's just
clear okay this is going in this broad direction of things and then a bunch of small donations or
maybe bigger donations a bunch of people more other people that were not clear at the moment where this bigger matching pool was
raised will decide where it actually goes and the round manager probably has some input on like which
projects even get into the position where they might get something from the matching pool but
um yeah so so that bigger matching pool also needs to be raised in some form or fashion.
Like somebody needs to go around, ask a bunch of organizations or whatever.
Like on Gitcoin, you can go to gov.gitcoin.co if you want to read.
A bunch of different small, big things that happen and coordination between DAOs and foundations and everything.
With Octon specifically, they have the advantage
that they have a huge staked amount of Ethereum
that's just from a foundation, from Godin Foundation.
So that was 100,000 Ethereum was staked,
and the yield is what is allocated in the funding runs that Octant has.
So that is the matching pool comes from the yield.
But I also want to open up the stage.
I feel like maybe someone else wanted to say something and been talking for a bit with this.
Yeah, raise hands if you want to add to this.
It's amazing that Octant doesn't touch their capital.
They were able to have a huge amount of ETH staked.
And so, yeah, what they're earning off that stake is used to then give into the pool that goes to these amazing projects that do have to get vetted so it's not just any rando out there.
Unfortunately, to me, it seems like there's been less visibility and activity in the actual rounds.
Maybe mid-last year, it seemed like there was a little more excitement, more people involved.
I don't know exactly why, but we do need to get this in the public forefront of mind because it's actually making an impact and a difference, making the world better like Tregen does. Regen Avocado, got a hand up for a bit. Yeah, so there is a lot that's shifting
within the grant space. I mean, just Octant specifically, they're coming out with V2.
So it's more of anybody can take the Octant model, adapt it for their purposes, basically have that staked capital. And then there's a lot more
composability in how people can designate where they want funding streams to go. So it's going
away from this periodic, quadratic funding round. There's also a lot that is happening around like revenue. There's this
thing called rev nets. And so that is similar to juice box. Some of you may be familiar with
juice box. Yeah, you're nay. But basically, it's juice box was famous for the constitution DAO where you can basically say, we've got a
project and we want to release a token and you can be kind of a part owner. What rev nets does
is you can basically set a price ceiling and a price floor and bake in like token buybacks.
And so if I say, I want to create a revenue a revenue token for olive oil, I can do that and
kind of basically set the parameters. So kind of like rug proof. So there's a lot of things that
are happening within like the grants converted to like yield like slash revenue. So I feel like
what's going to bring attention back is people actively like
cognitively making decisions that have some type of tangible reward on the other side,
as opposed to just feel good. Oh, I donated and this was the impact. So I think we're kind of in
that like metamorphosis stage. And so I think by springtime, this next evolution is going to become a little bit clearer.
And I know it's like, it's been a pretty rough grant season, like 2020, the end of 2025 was, was pretty rough.
And I think a lot, I think that's the global economy region.
I'm not, I'm not going to jump in for long, bro.
I just wanted to, you know, I don't know who this might help in your sector, but you know, last cycle I was here, you know, I say last cycle, I kind of think we're still in the lane,
just a bearish mark of that.
But anyway, the last couple of years when people were here,
to be honest, bro, there was a couple of projects here and there
that sounded like they were going to do something cool,
but they hadn't really done it and they weren't showing it.
There weren't really many charity projects about, bro.
There was the odd one, a couple did do a couple of things,
but, you know, it seems this cycle,
a lot more people are actually
leveraging the tech for things like that can actually be done with it you know as i say
regent avocado and tree gems are two two projects right here showing you that right now live in
front of you and i think this is i don't know you guys will probably know what it's called i don't
even know there must be a word so you know what's what's web three you know philanthropy called like
that's what this is right now and you know we're kind of at the pioneering forefront and i say we because
it's a family isn't it none of us could do what we want to do alone could we no one can go and
plant a billion trees on their own like even jimmy couldn't do that he did what 39 000
so we need a lot of people and we all need to be on so anyway as i was saying it's nice to see
there's some serious projects like regenerative arcado and tree jeds are really actually doing
what they say on the tin so you know big hats off to you guys and keep
on the right path trust me yeah it's there's been uh there's been plenty of uh you know
these these projects around for years i saw civil might have something to add to that i mean we've
been doing impact concerts during quadratic rounds for a couple years now that's awesome bro what i mean
though is like just i wasn't saying there's people about doing it but what i was saying is
in the actual go around the spaces see what's about you wouldn't see many projects are actually
about of course it would just be like meme is going to make so much more this is going to make
there weren't many people coming and saying yo can we get involved in a project not because it's
going to make you a millionaire like you've never been here and jimmy or even me even though you see how exciting i am i always be very careful not to be like yo come and get involved in my project. Not because it's going to make you a millionaire. Like, you've never been here. And Jimmy, or even me, even though you see how exciting I am,
I always be very careful not to be like,
yo, come and get involved in tree gems
because you're going to make bags of money.
Because the reason is, it might be true,
but you don't want them people, really.
You don't want someone, in my opinion,
that's coming to your project just to make money.
Because if that's the case,
they're just going to be disrespecting your chart.
Every time you have a pump,
they're going to be pooing on your head and making money doing i've had it bro and it's very painful whereas if people
are coming like me personally when i go and buy a big bag of tgm which will be soon um you know i'm
not buying that in the intense i'm going to go then dump on the chart if anything i'll probably
use it to help market making the chart and you know when the time comes to let me be wrong listen
when the time comes a year two years down the year we planted loads of trees done all that hey maybe i want to you know along the line
take little bit here or there to pay for some toys for the kids or whatever but you know that's not
the driving force i couldn't care it could sit there i mean i've got tokens from last cycle
and they're obviously worth pennies now but i've got like a million of this 10 million that 10
bro i don't even know what happened with them bro i didn't even look at what's the once the
run was over i got you know my main big bags i didn't give a poo about the rest i
i've lost that much money i was like just whatever by that point like it didn't even matter anyway
i've over talked a bit all i actually meant to say is well done for actually doing what you're
saying and you know be you can just tell it's more serious like these people that are larping
they ain't talking about quadratic funding and telling you how it goes go on bro uh i i pinned in the garden uh octant a git coin give us brother those are
incredible resources about incredible uh projects i'm all over all of them i'm already following
projects I'm all over all of them already following and and what what civil said and
what we are talking about the quadratic funding when each can donate to different projects one
dollar and then you can get they can get 100x this is it kind of like match funding okay
and I agree I put one pound in and then it passed around and loads of other people put a pound in
so it makes our funding more?
Is that basically what it is?
I mean, you know, like Sivil said,
you need to have a matching fund pool,
you know, where all those funds will be, you know,
somebody has to grind to get those fans. But for us, sort of people who want to be part and want to support, that's the amazing
opportunity to support amazing projects.
You know, I met Jimmy and I met many, many people like Sevil
and I think as well Region Avocat grow during Let's Grow DAO spaces,
you know, where Jimmy and all the Will, Will Tee
and many other amazing people, man, were running spaces for two weeks, 24-7.
So you could actually communicate with people from all over the world
who are actually, like you said, you are impressed with Tregen,
And I was like so high hearing, you know, amazing, amazing stories
about actually impact, you know, people are doing.
But, you know, like, like Region Avocado said as well, that, that, you know, that, that this momentum sort of is, is going up and down.
You know, we are working constantly. Like I was fortunate enough to start our own farm in Dali, but, but to get funds and as
well to, to be able to actually do the work, you know, like, you know, because of the Swedish
Dali that we have fucking almost every day people coming, um, with, to, to make videos,
to make vlogs, to make, even we were recently in hong kong tv but so
fucking what you know i mean it's nice to inspire people but then you can't do the work and then on
top of that if if if your sort of turnover of economy doesn't really start yet and then you
you have to run the farm then everything you know it's like getting on the way with actually, you know, planting those trees, with growing those vegetables, with regenerating this soil.
So it's like you need so much resilience.
Yeah. And that's why here for me personally, I get a lot of inspiration, a lot of, you know, like power from all of you guys to keep on growing, you know, because it's not fucking easy.
but but like civil said man 40 fucking people i i even to be honest you know first of all i i i
have you know like quite difficult time financially but but you know i was donating in giveth in
gitcoin you know as well you know i i build up my gitcoin passport you know so it's a lot of like yeah anyway so so it's amazing brother that you
are here meta because for for me if people like you who are fucking serious who are not only pumping
and then eventually unfortunately dumping that that with people like you, we can actually spread this word
and then present those projects.
And then some of us, most of us can fucking donate $1 here, $1 there.
Okay, so I appreciate you saying that.
And I'm glad we got chads like you here, bro.
Because we need people all across the board, bro.
I imagine if you just had a room full of quants, right? Say if you had a room full of me, right? I'm glad we got chats like you here, bro, because we need people all across the board, bro.
I imagine if you just had a room full of quants, right?
Like, say if you had a room full of me, right?
Number one, you wouldn't be able to do a space because we'd all be talking over each other.
Number two, you know, one, certain people are just going to get bored of hearing this type of voice, you know.
Anyway, I don't want to digress. What I'm saying, right, is that one of the things that I'm working on with my project, web for ultraverse is making um making let's just call it launchpad for now making a launchpad
where to go and launch on it you have to be a genuine project right when you go on the launch
pad you have to sign up that basically i won't take this amount of much liquidity out for this
long so essentially just to mute everyone out myself by accident sorry um essentially you're saying you have to be you can't rug it to come on here and then on the
opposite side that means everyone who plays with or plays with who invests in the project they
can't be rugged because the liquidity will be found that's one measure you can do to make sure
a project can't be rugged now imagine when you could think about it this way imagine if tree
jen's not planting all the well not continue to plant all these trees everyone's loving it yeah can't be rugged now imagine when you could think about this way imagine if tree james start planting
and all the whatnot continues to plant all these trees everyone's loving it yeah everyone's now
throwing money they chart we're all you know rubbing each other's grass and whatever then
bang it gets rugged no everyone's going to have the hard feeling and it go away did it that would
never happen guys i'm just giving an example if that did happen not only has it done the opposite
of what was on it's damaged the cause then because there are people that were in that project
so that's what was happening all last cycle if there was any child that was what's happening
so what i'm saying this cycle imagine if everyone can have them warm fields but they can go and look
on the blockchain or they can speak to someone that knows how to and say yo bro can this actually
be rugged and they're like nah bro that that's locked up for
this long it can't what i think that does that then allows big institutions to come into crypto
because they can see on paper that they can't be rugged i mean it's crazy that we even got
institutional investment last year with how many rugs are about like there was institutions out
here getting rugged bro i mean i got rugged by the u.s president how
wild is that bro like literally got rugged by the president of those powerful that shouldn't be
allowed to happen should it especially not the little man because that's the problem it's not
really the big man losing the money that's why they're not really in crypto because they knew
it's still rug season but if we're not careful what we will do is exhaust the little resources
which is based on what crypto has been for a bit.
And then when it's time to really run with it and all this stuff developed,
who's going to have all the big money and be invested?
Them, if we don't take power.
So this is how we do it with projects like TreeGens, like Web4, Wizards, Dingus with Dabba,
Dingus with Dabba, D-D-I, Regen of a car.
This is how we do it, guys.
This is how we do it, guys.
In my opinion, this is how we actually build the future
between AI, crypto, and boots on the ground on real causes.
In my opinion, that is literally the quickest and most reasonable
and the actual most powerful we have to change the world
is with those kind of tools.
Now, it's been rug season out here since 2019 bro
um i see regen and peter got their hands up uh regen real quick and then we'll hit peter
yeah i i mean i don't really have much to add i think um everybody's kind of aware of the
difficult macro situation and you know we didn't get that uh big four-year cycle last year um like previous
cycles but i think hopefully the silver lining is that we were able to get better fundamentals
and like i guess this uh concept like you know the all of the meme we were way over inflated on price weren't we bro we were way over yeah all of
the meme coins the um the like that that took out pretty much all of the wind um but also too like
we've everybody's had to like really earn everything um there's been no well how wild
would it bro you had a whole like billion dollar dollar sorry to interrupt you i have got lag by the way so i don't mean to talk over you we've got a whole billion dollar funded utility projects
i've been in the work for like 30 years and then you've got like derpy mcderick face going and doing
20 million in front of it and he's struggling it's crazy bro that was never how crypto in my opinion
i mean i know it's maybe descent right but come on bro i don't think the guy who actually sat in a designer you know one day i'm having a black chain with little pictures
and monkeys and and they're gonna make it bro i know it is a community and everything but what
it does to me or what it did at the end of the last cycle it now didn't incentivize builders
incentivize people that could build and run communities quicker whoever could do it the
quickest with the most different iterations they made the most money last cycle. That's not how it should be in my opinion.
This cycle, I think it's different.
Those kind of pump and dump
schemes were kind of like
So hopefully that was like
We got that out of the way now, so next time...
Literally, bro. I mean, look around.
I'm going to tell everybody, be careful.
Be careful leveraging perpetual futures because that's the next cycle of liquidation.
If you want to be liquidated, go for it.
Bet and gamble on futures.
All the wallets and platforms are adding that, trying to hype it up.
Stick to the stuff that you know.
It's easy, isn't it? If you're going to do a future why not just hold that in spot like i know you
it's a bit longer and you're not going to get it straight away but at least like i'm not saying
yours is it sort of cx but at least you know you've got that position right and you know as long as
you got stop loss and a profit that clever it's quite hard to lose and you can strategize then
can't you easy once you are leveraging a thousand X because if this goes right, I'm gonna rich him. It doesn't you're all or nothing
So if you lose one game, you're done. Bye-bye game over ways if you lose two percent of your portfolio
You still have 50 chances to come back, you know, so that's the the mindset shift in my opinion
Exactly and people just don't maybe understand it
They get some, you know enter to win win $100 if you leverage out all your wallet. I just I see it like being pumped really hard. I think it's sort of that next meme coin cycle for liquidating the normies. Just wanted to mention that. I see Sybil's got a hand up.
Boomerang that back. I think that's Peter's hand. There you are.
Yeah, Peter has been a meta one, isn't he?
What up, the second Wizard?
Always good to see you, how are you i'm doing i'm doing good i'm doing amazing now gm to three gen dm to the co-host bingos mk shout out to everybody on this piece
um yeah i would have been on this piece um
since but my network was just fucking me up but yeah um yeah um wizard why are you lying you've
been over that yucky duck space i know you are bro yeah i'm playing bro i was there i was there
but actually after this piece i wanted to hop on the three games i know how many play yo we love our
lucky dog lucky dog lucky yucky dog yucky dog fan we love our yucky dog fan bro we want to be
out we all crop pollinating you around here loads anyway so how many playing with you bro cookie
bro how's your day bro what you been on with you know my day my day was pretty amazing yeah um i've
been working on building my team and yeah building with with the Yolkidocs. And yeah, I want to thank you, 3Gens, for the win.
And that's massive work for the community too.
So yeah, I'm just here to connect with everybody.
I'm here to cheer with the 3Gens as always.
So thanks for always having me.
Thank you, WizardFam. Appreciate you much. so thanks for always having me thank you wizard fam appreciate you my g that is a sick uh sick little duck by the way i do like the yucky duck art i think uh you know what guys i'm like it's quite funny because like i said i've
been around this quite a while last cycle i was just you know kept my head down dev called ask
i'm a deader but you know this cycle i don't know it's probably the first cycle where i'm not gonna lie i do feel like an experienced head where i'm looking at so many projects now
and i'm already feeling like not not thoughts wise like you know breaking it down with full
metrics although i look at that as well but you know just intuitively you're like yeah that
project's gonna do well or that project's not gonna make it and you know it's mad bro because
the projects i think really, really going to succeed,
it's either the ones that have got the learned experience and have adapted well from previous cycles, or the new ones that are the most up for, you know, just learning, developing,
advancing, because there is so much knowledge out there right now.
And there's so many different dApps, there's so many different types of AI.
Like, you don't have to be in this space for that long to make a pretty solid project however you do have to be willing to adapt and learn because
even the strategies of last cycle a lot of them are still transmutable and come over here however
there's still a lot of adaptations to what happened last time i really feel like unless
you're an art driven or like this a charity driven project i think you have to be deep with ai right
now or you got to be doing something new different um or you just got to be very clever with what
came before you know if you are a meme now i've got some memes still trying to say a full pure
meme i kind of personally think that that's gone now i don't think many serious investors are going
out there just looking for basic meme community with this and that. You know, they want to see a bit of integration.
They want to see, you know, the UI looking a little bit cleaner, you know.
I think they're going to want to see V3 memes.
And I'm excited to see what the next meme way is as well because it's not here right now.
I don't think it's still the old base of what we were doing last year.
But I think there's going to be new things coming.
Much like, say, text to image.
It was great. I've not even seen it
since but people aren't investing in the projects now a lot they're just because there's low
liquidity they're doing cookie cutters they're scamming people they're doing something i know
people not know people but i have seen of people that scammed one of my projects they were doing
at least five to six cto rugs a day and after they rubbed the original project they also rubbed the cto
because they knew how to move the liquidity around without people seeing it and then people
are still here okay so be careful tap in and tap in with the real project i won't over talk because
i see hands what up peter civil
peter civil are you still there yeah yeah go for it okay um yeah
um what up peter i didn't know what you what you said um meta i've i've um please hold on
so um sorry you make me laugh man peter's gonna be in a room yeah there'll be like
3 000 people listening and people like man if you just wait there
just gonna scratch my ass guys no no no no we're not we're not about 3 000 here it's just my mom yeah but yeah you you said something about um
the whole community was going into rugs with meme coins and the likes and i i resonated with that
and lately if there is anything it's it's usually a trend there is always a trend
if there is anything i've noticed from web3 and potentially Web4 and AI,
it's usually, as of now, tilting more into projects with utility.
If you want to spot ROGs, just look out for their utilities.
Many of them usually have no utility.
You just go into the project, you dig in for a couple of hours, you get pre-sales,
and that's just, you're rocked.
But for like projects with utility,
take for example, we've been on space,
it's going to say four hours,
and then we're having to talk about utility,
we're having to talk about the ecosystem,
we're having to talk about greenhouse plants,
helps benefit the world or at least the community at large and that is where you would know that
okay for some reason people would definitely definitely channel their resources into such
we're talking in short if this was outrightly accepted by, let's say, a larger population of the hurt geographical, let's just say people, if it was much more accepted, we'd be talking about fixing unemployment.
We'd be talking about fixing the greenhouse effects, solving global warming and so many things. Those things affect the issue as well, don't they, bro?
Because, you know, when you have, like we said earlier,
if you have an area with high unemployment,
and then, you know, they're sat there with not a lot to do,
but there's a load of trees around them,
it doesn't take a rocket scientist to guess what they're going to do
if they have a good job, isn't it?
Exactly. You already have something you're doing.
And take, for for example even them the
was it mayan or i can't remember the other guy with the old plastic that is that is another way
to get into the business but as we as we know everybody just wants that quick cash just flip
it and and then you're making multiple zeros and at the end of the day, they met with disappointment.
When you're looking on projects like that,
you just, you would be rocked for everything you have.
My brother is a victim and we're having to just rebuild
So yeah, I really love what 3Gen is building,
what Regen Avocado is doing.
And I wish I had not left Maya and Sue.
I would have really loved to connect with Maya and Sue.
But yeah, I'm happy to be here.
It's valuable, essentially.
And then probably when it gets to the shilling time,
I would personally, personally love
to introduce myself properly.
Thank you. As well, Jimmy, if you bring him up, you are going to have to stay for at least another two hours because he'll be bringing his whole family again.
You're going to have to onboard the whole family again, bro.
Of course he's good, bro.
Any community out there, they need their Weyers, bro.
His cousin was here earlier.
His brother's cousin's sister.
I don't know if he got a chance to speak because we didn't quite get to hear about it.
But good to have you up here.
I'm just coming into the space, which is so bad.
I haven't been in the space.
You're going to have to go repent for that, brother.
You are going to have to repent for that.
I know, which is why I'm planting trees or something, bro.
I'm playing with you, bro.
You're always out here grinding, bro.
You're topping the leaderboard in the PG.
I just wanted to pop in and say hi.
What have you been doing today?
Grimmunitry is the one talking the leader
yo have you two been touching grass together i'm not sure what's going on You made it on the leaderboard. Yeah, don't be supportive.
You made it to the top three for a bit, though.
Great time you're here, bro.
You made it to the top three, at least for a bit.
I don't know if you're still there, but I'm sure you can.
By the way, yeah, we're giving out 69 TGN and TG every single week.
So just do forward slash LB if you want to see where you are on the leaderboard.
Every post is a point, but if you're spamming, you get muted. So just engage authentically and get some TGN.
Peter, the shill time never stopped.
Like, you can always just show and introduce yourself.
It's show and show space.
And then I'm going to wrap here gromentarily, guys.
But tomorrow is going to be a big one.
We've got a whole impact concert happening tomorrow.
It's going to be a massive space.
And probably going to be doing video broadcasting as well.
I'm going to be interviewing another Guinness World Record holder,
the one who hugged trees for the longest.
She hugged trees for 72 hours, which sounds like.
I bet our arm was aching.
Is it, you know, like, what's the impact of that, you might ask?
I bet there's a big impact on our arm. She's in charge of the 15 billion tree goal of Kenya now.
She's in charge of the 15 billion tree gold
because she broke this Guinness World Record
I'm telling you guys, you guys gotta get up there and try
break some freaking records dude, it's life changing
bro, as soon as I broke the record
dude, partying with Ethiopia was like
easy, like they wanted a Guinness
record and weren't able to get one
and I come there with one on my phone and he's like
alright, fucking, how can we collab?
Bro, I'm telling you, it's light work.
You guys got to go break some records.
It ain't easy being a treasian.
If you want to break the tree planting Guinness World Record, I will help.
You don't have to pay Guinness what I did to get all these guidelines and da, da, da, da.
Like, I'll just hook you up.
gonna have that record for long bro bro tree jen so one thing i thought the other day and i did
digress again and forgot about it but how do they um actually invigilate like what what don't not
the whole thing bro but you know roughly like what represents like did they actually stand there so
and watched over you watched every single 39 000 go go in the ground. I tried to make that happen, man
By the way, that's an extra fee. I try to make that happen, bro
But dude like there was like a protest
They were like we do not want to watch 39,000 them trees, bro
Yeah, they wouldn't know well yeah see even that they wouldn't have even been there for the full 24 hours
We're gonna come for the first one and we'll come for the last one
Because like you have to stay you have to stay uh alert when you're keeping tally right you can't
be like you know dazed and confused so so like so every four hours the witnesses have to rotate
shifts and these have to be third-party witnesses i can never have worked with them in the past
and one of them has to be a tree planting specialist at all times. How many does that even exist, bro?
Plus, you have to film every single tree planted.
And, bro, I was out in the middle of nowhere.
It's a tiny little town with a tiny population.
Shimoni's by the coast of Kenya and Tanzania on the Kenyan side.
And I had to find all these tree planting specialists.
Like, dude, it was tough to organize everything.
But yeah, no, a protest broke out.
The official Guinness people weren't quite there, but it was insanely rigorous.
Like, I needed to keep multiple cameras on the tree planting at all times as well,
because the second attempt, you know, one of them overheated, fried the inverter,
lost several gigs of footage. It was corrupted footage um and and yeah it couldn't get verified so third
third time bro i was so over prepared um but you could also just hug a tree you know maybe break
her record i don't know do something break one man i'm telling you but that's a long-winded way
of saying we're gonna have some dope guests tomorrow. Sybil, go ahead, buddy.
I'd love to hear it. That's awesome.
Guinness World Record winner,
May, was actually just talking about her
the other week on our weekly space,
Swift transition. No, but actually, she was exactly talking about her and how the other week on our weekly space, NFTs for Social Good, Swift Transition.
she was exactly talking about her
and how she did do that in Kenya,
who hacked the tree the longest.
And Meta, I also did want to mention
If you ever are looking for people
to talk about this stuff in space,
we've been doing that every Thursday for about four years now um it's also pinned up at nft fsg it's uh yeah don't
really care too much about the markets and stuff but i mean i i do also get your point that's like
less like it's not like it's it's a certain waves of like sometimes you hear more people talking
about charity and crypto spaces and sometimes you hear less people talking about charity and crypto spaces and sometimes you hear less people talking about charity and crypto spaces.
When you're talking about broader
mainstream crypto spaces,
it doesn't mean that those things
and those people don't exist.
the characteristics of shouting
and needing to get on stage and stuff.
There's always like a certain visibility bias.
If anybody ever wants to see stuff,
I usually retweet things all around with 3 for good
and also have a Telegram channel, same at t.me slash civilmonkey,
same as here, where I share kind of broader info
and events coming up online and offline around people
thinking about blockchain and how to use it to make a difference in the real world and one other
point that I just wanted to respond to when you said we just needed people who who um want to make
it happen like for instance um like you said a dex trading thing where fees would be used to donate or something yeah it's important to have
people who want to do that um the other thing is also having the skill set to do it and the right
approaches as in like business heavy operational excellence i think oftentimes and also um human
capacity and ability to work with humans i I think those things are oftentimes very important factors to,
I don't want to drag it out too long,
I'm also more and more using decentralized social Farcaster lens,
but yeah, don't just need to use
one platform anyhow um good stuff uh good topics difficult to execute thank you all um yeah yo
civil are you are you cross-posting across those different channels like through like firefly or
anything like that or are you just doing it manually i'm not currently cross-posting
through firefly but i am but firefly actually you know um apparently also works for viewing
so i guess you can like if you if you log i think it's firefly.social if you log in you can both view
and post like from x and fagasta and lens and blue sky vitalik just mentioned that he made a
bigger post today about decentralized social.
I'll just mention that because I think it's important.
Farkas got acquired today.
Lens got acquired yesterday by other tech companies.
Farkas got acquired by Naina.
And Lens got acquired by Mask Network.
No, I've not really used Firefly, but I probably will.
I mean, there's also issues with cross-posting.
But yeah, theory should work.
Yeah, theory. I don't know. Yeah, I'm just curious if you had a good solution i've had some challenges around firefly but that's dope they're active everywhere man i gotta get more
active on all these different web3 socials um that's not even with three socials not not even
with three socials i mean like the thing is especially when we're talking about environmental stuff blue sky is just where a lot of people are going like many people are just saying
buy x i'm just not using it for many different reasons and blue sky is also pretty cool i think
like it's like you can actually use feeds like there's there's already feeds and you can also
program feeds on your own where it's like a feed about a topic, right?
Where you see stuff about a topic,
there's cool feeds about biodiversity
or ecosystem services or whatnot.
And you don't even need to follow those accounts to see it.
And there's like custom feeds
that for instance shows you stuff from people
or like stuff that people have liked
who also have liked what you've liked
in the past and which is like not really i mean it's kind of algorithmic but not really so anyhow
you can you can basically you can actually choose your algorithm what i mean many people talked
about years ago and it's actually working um on blue sky and i mean to an extent you can also do
that on fargaster on recaster which is what I would use for that, which is a client.
And there's more and more clients coming up, right? Like, Chrom for Fargaster
is now usable. It's just launched a few days ago
fully. Uno is still invite-only, but there's Degen app.
The client wars are heating up. It's not was i mean yeah i guess maybe it's was but it's just
yeah it's good alternatives um yeah so yeah and lens orb orb um for anyone's orb.club is the
lens is the protocol and orb is the client and i mean there's also more clients of course but
um yeah lens is the other thing okay so if i only use
if i only use lens i go to orb.club yeah that's the front end yeah yeah i think you can also
create an account there i think um yeah i'm not gonna tell everyone that everyone needs to go be
everywhere but it's interesting i don't know it's like and those i everyone that everyone needs to be everywhere, but it's interesting. I don't know. It's like, and those, I'll tell him you got to be everywhere.
Then you don't get anything done though.
I got to take this advice too,
You should be everywhere.
please. Yo, does he know he's unmuted? I'm good. I'm good. I'm on 3J's face.
Yo, does he know he's unmuted?
Bro's talking about us, but I don't even know.
Bro, Wizard, you're hot-miking, bro.
Oh, bro, with either me or the other wizard.
Guys, Deepa is up here on the stage, ladies and gentlemen.
Hi, everyone. Yeah, oh my gosh you mean it's so good to be on your show after i don't know ages i guess welcome deeper what's the pirate flag about by
the way you're a pirate deeper oh yeah i'm i like being a pirate it's like um it's uh it's all for good by the way so it's raising the pirate flag for good
um yeah but it's so good to hear everyone like i used to be a regular not a regular but pretty
often i used oh by the way jimmy what happened to your um public goods um saturday space i used
to be a regular on that. Oh, snap.
I hope you all come to the Impact Festival tomorrow, Deepa.
I don't know. I stopped doing it, and then I posted in the public nouns telegram,
like, yo, should I bring it back? And no one said anything.
I'm like, all right, well, fuck that.
I think it was really valuable because what you did was a roundup i think you did a roundup of everything that was like happening and what
funding is available like it was like a news uh hour news hour you know like like just announcements
after announcements so i think it was really cool yeah yeah it was a cool thing we shared a lot of a lot of amazing opportunities
um through that um but uh but but yeah you know we could we could we could reinvigorate that in a
new form right deep what do you sorry to interrupt you jimmy i thought you were done i was just gonna
ask deeper watching bells so i do apologize i'll pass it back to you. You're good.
We do have to hear about that, Deepa.
So for people who may not know me, I was part of Web3 since like 2021.
Did like a deep dive into Impact House in 2022.
Published a book, podcast, lots of articles.
published a book, podcast, lots of articles, like raised funding on Gitcoin twice for the book and everything that we did.
And we had a DAO ourselves. So we ran as a grant writer, which I experimented with the Gitcoin grant round.
Then like a lot of people come from emerging markets and English is not their first language.
And but they are applying for Gitcoin grants.
goal was to really see if AI can enable them to like, just go from like, the very thought of what
they want to do to a polished proposal that is quick to read and understand for donors. And so
I did this AI grant writer experiment in 2023. It really worked. 50 people like I didn't advertise
it much. I just tweeted about it. And 50 people used it. That was a good sign that people,
it's like a valuable tool for people. All they had to do was describe their project
in nutshell, like as a blurb, like as a tweet, basically just like, you know, need money to raise,
to educate refugees on crypto wallets. That's it in Turkey, maybe. And the AI wrote like a really good one pager on what your goal is,
what the outcome will be, how you intend to measure the outcome and all of that stuff that
the donor wants to know. So that experiment was pretty successful. And in 2024, I launched a full
on AI powered product for grants. It's called grantorb.com. For the longest period of time, our AI was
optimized to write winning grant proposals. But recently, we introduced grant search as well.
So we have an AI agent who goes out on the internet. It's very different from search.
It's pretty agentic. You just set up your profile, like where you're based, what you do,
what your registration status is. If you have one, and then I'll just hunt grants for you and keep sending you
those opportunities. And then it's very easy from there on, I'll create a template for you and AI
will create like a grant form on grant orb that resembles the actual grant form. And then you just
describe your idea in like two or three sentences and it'll write the whole proposal out for you.
So you don't have to do like everything gets done in like less than five minutes.
It's very gentic, autonomous.
Grant hunting happens while you're sleeping.
So you don't have to like sit in front of your laptop.
When the AI is writing the grant, you don't have to be in front of your laptop.
You know, you can go do something else.
So it's winning grants as well, you know.
It's winning grants, that's the best part.
Like, it won a grant for a very small school in Canada,
from Canada Post Foundation, a $25,000 grant.
And that school had never written a grant before.
The principal doesn't even know, like, anything about grants.
Like, they're running a school.
their thing but they needed the money and uh sorry to interrupt you i'm not gonna say much can i just
draw everyone's attention to the way deep has just kind of explained that this is what i'm telling
people in my opinion in 2026 these are the kind of things that seem so common sense that is like
literally like why hasn't anyone done this yet but grants basically
writing a lot of stuff in a form what is ai amazing at deep has seen that what's she done
she's gone spun it up leveraged into charity i think it's gonna do great it sounds like an
amazing thing now all you gotta do is go out and get it in the right hand get in front of the right
people have you have you already had some good success with it deeper who's used it so far yeah
that's what this is a success story.
Like somebody, oh, there's a non-profit that's like writing it out,
like Toronto-based non-profit.
They attempt every grant that comes their way.
They don't say no to any grant.
They just actually recently said no to one grant they don't want to do
because it had 30 questions.
Writing it out was not a problem.
They were like, is it worth it?
Because for $5,000, the of toronto is going to make them do so much uh evaluation reporting they literally writing was not the problem they knew they have grant or
you can tell when governments don't really want to give them money they're like right you got to
do a double back flip triple around there come around you got to pray on one foot for five years
and that will consider putting you to the next round. 30 questions. 30 questions is easy.
Grantor can do it in like five minutes.
But then she was like, I need to then take these answers and put it in the form.
You know, like the city of Toronto, you can imagine like the government forms are even like the software system.
That's why when you go to the interview and like, can you now write your job experience?
You're like, bro, you've got my CV.
Do you really need me to write that?
Anyways, you know, when you're dealing with like software,
crappy software, they sign you out like 10 times.
Then you have to sign yourself in.
That customer for the first time said no to applying for a grant,
but she hits every grant that comes away that grantor sends her.
And she's been winning multiple grants, multiple grants.
So that's the most amazing part she literally takes five minutes
sorry to interrupt my victory siren because you're doing so great so I do
apologize cook stop to cookie but that's great to hear that
Forecaster got acquired I didn't know that like i was one of the early users i haven't used them for a long
time but i was one of the early users i've heard a lot about it i've still not even been myself on
farcaster but i'm hearing some very good things after i've kind of caught up in all the dev in
i think my two things are going over to telegram checking this whole ton thing out and uh and you know this
farcaster because everyone's talking about this is what you should know in my opinion guy this is
what we need to do is explore you know you have your home base at tree gen the wizards and whatnot
and then a little bit of exploration but you know that for me that's how you can kind of mitigate
your risk you find solid communities that you can have big bases in and you know that's how even you
know traditional portfolios are on that they don't people are saying i'm gonna go 50 50 percent in memes
and all bro there's not many people putting all of their money memes unless they're real degens
so don't look all the exceptions on your timeline or the lenders and this because most of them people
i'm telling you bro they made their money through scamming people they didn't end a legit project
in their life they wouldn't even know how to run one i've been on farcaster for like two and a half years now and it's a great platform
although uh the wallet just went crazy it's showing balances of like hundreds of millions
of dollars so uh they're like coinbase when it does right yeah oh my god seriously wow
brother you know when that first happened to you, I know you did the same thing.
You thought you'd made it.
You know, I didn't think this would happen to me.
I had at least 150 million.
So it weren't even too much.
I had loads of coins at the time.
I thought, oh my God, this happened to me.
Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God.
And then when I actually tried to do something.
Can I ask a really stupid question?
Like, are these coins being used for anything?
Like, say, once you get coins.
They never exist there, Deepa.
So it's just showing you that it's got X amount.
But can you use these coins within the app?
They actually don't even exist.
Then why am I collecting these coins?
Right now, it's showing Ethereum.
Like, if you have, say, $10 of Ethereum over there, it's showing your Ethereum balance at like $680 million.
Yeah, like it's for historical purposes.
I collect them for the fact that I can remind myself that I did a really stupid thing that day.
I even keep it on my home screen.
A little wallet thing that shows me like you know here's my
dead coins remember what you did don't do that again you know right if i had one the other day
it was another day this was last cycle and uh pardon any women in here but it was called
shark with titsh yeah and it rugged and then uh you know i didn't see nothing from a usually i do
cleanse my wallet but i've been a bit lazy in this wallet and uh this wallet was pretty much empty it was just a graveyard like you said your graveyard wallet
i'm doing some of the projects and then uh i just see this little number pop up like this wallet's
gone from being your naught point naught whatever to like you know 50 dollars i'm all something here
so i didn't check the wallet out and uh you know sharp with t's again we'll call it now it started
popping and i guess that's a bit of alpha for you guys like cleanse your wallet but if there's anything that might be cto'd you know it might be worth having
a dead wallet that you just send you know rubbish coins to because it ended up rallying back and it
went up to about 350 dollars and it only be worth like one dollar before the rug so uh yeah that's
my answer to you guys the fluctuations can drive you crazy One moment you're like an instant billionaire, the second moment.
You're eating ramen again, bro.
You better put that steak down.
Anyways, I was curious about Zora.
That was a hell of an airdrop.
Because I know all about it.
So when you get coins there, are those coins usable?
Can you use those coins to do anything?
You're talking about the creator coins there?
Yeah, so it's all about liquidity.
I mean, right now I have $50 of tokens that I made that I can't move.
They technically came into existence because I created a piece on base network
and then it minted like a billion tokens about it.
And then they technically have a value,
but I cannot swap them out because there's no liquidity.
And I just posted up top here,
it's just a base wallet that I have.
which is two funny names to have a rug.
But that money is not actually there.
It's completely ethereal and made up. So basically, do get creator coins but they are totally useless it's only
if someone is buying and you start creating value then liquidity starts getting in you know what it
is right i think the way you think of it rather than are they useful or not you could have right
for example you could have a utility coin right and by holding that utility coin it
gives you access to this oracle or something like that right now that could have an inherent value
or use or whatever and that could go in the real world but you know if you're looking at it just
from an investment worth point of view any project is essentially only really worth what the liquidity
pool is like you know a project can have a market cap of 1 billion but there isn't
1 billion value even in that coin because the liquidity pool is probably going to be like 100
million so if you rub the entire coin that's why when i say you know i left three four hundred
care on the table last year the actual project was as i say was 3.7 million but i couldn't take 3.7
million even with most supply control because the liquidity pool is smaller so to make it simple
anyway because you know for lay people listening all i'm saying is when a project has had the
liquidity taken out of it all you are then left with is you know the token asteroid with no inherent
value be like wasting what we've got in real life we went away from the gold standard which the gold
and the different assets back the money and that's when we can be in situations like this with coinbase where it can be an account and it
could just say you've got a trillion dollars it's like they say you know we're in trillions of
dollars of debt who are we in debt to at this point is it aliens well it's because the way we
do accountancy you know a lot of the accountancy humans do is crazy bro like none of this makes
any sense like it's been plastered you know that
gift where it's like fixed it boom and you're putting a plaster on the massive like vial of
water yeah this is that kind of situation with our finances and really guys you know the stuff
i'm thinking of in my head and when i'm like bro i really actually think i'm going to change the
world right now it's because i'm really i i feel like i'm just like letting my mind not have them
limitation oh you wouldn't be able to do you. You couldn't do that. Now, when I think about something like global hunger or anything like this,
it's a big issue, isn't it?
And, you know, to walk around and say, I could help solve that.
People are like, you crazy, bro.
People are trying to do that for you.
I don't care what no one's tried, done before.
I know he loves this speech.
Thingy banner that did the four-minute mile.
Then the year after, how many people did it like bro that is so real it is i mean it is really real but honestly guys
there are things that we could think oh maybe that's a bit big i couldn't do it i'm here to
tell you we're gonna do some massive things this year and uh you know let's pass it back anyway i've
talked quite a lot let me shut up oh no so basically i just still want to get a handle on this because i created
my zora account and i published something uh and so i did get some creator coins what is the
utility of the creator coins all right so they represent you as a person and each post each post
is usually creates its own coin as well but you want to get down to your like base, like profile market cap.
It represents like you and like anybody who buys into that token is basically saying like we back you and we think you've created good content.
We want to see more. Like what I did is I just got on the base app.
I make art personally. I used to make art for Daba. Now I do a little bit of different things for Daba.
I just started posting up my art up there and seeing like, don't know what's gonna happen here and some people started collecting
it i mean like not like a lot i got 18 cents on one piece of art that means somebody tapped it
18 different times for a penny um you know it's like it's a really interesting way to gain exposure
so it has nothing to do with money in a lot of ways but but you can't buy can they also buy using actual usable money like ETH, for instance?
Yeah, people can trade for your creator.
But the thing is, you get, say, there's 10 billion tokens and you get, I don't know, 100 million.
But even if somebody buys your token, you can't necessarily extract that right away.
There's some kind of curve
where you're getting a certain amount of availability
Now, I'm not in love with every post being a token
plus having a creator coin.
I think they should have just gone with a creator coin
that represents all of your...
It's so messy, I hate it.
But it's an interesting experiment. It's talking about yeah we're talking about base i'm talking about
yeah zora and base base uses zora like protocol for their tokenization of casts um or what do you
guys uh actually think this whole thing because i mean if i'm honest i when this first
came out the first thing that came to my head with that is gimmicky as like who really cares
about her but you can tell me if i'm wrong what where do you see the utility in it
i see the utility in the fact that there's this massive scam in america that's like fraud that's
been going on that has to do with like uh people getting money that shouldn't be getting money
minnesota stuff and all that yeah yeah i'm sorry what was your question sorry bring me back i was
saying with this whole thing of you know tokenizing posts and all that like far what do you actually
think the point of it is i personally it does it does create a sort of social support graph on the
blockchain which is like kind of the useful part
to me uh but i again i would have liked if they had made you make one creator i make easy sorry
sorry just before we move on sorry either i won't get your point um what in what way though do you
think can you explain to me how you think it's a social graph and they're not that the way they've
linked it to a token and liquidity why you need that to do it well i mean you wouldn't necessarily there are other like on farcaster
basic you sort of own your social graph with these tokens you can see on the blockchain like
who has supported me okay i'm I'm going to drop them.
I'm going to airdrop them all this really cool photograph or piece of art I made or this jingle or song.
So you know what wallets are supporting.
Yeah, see, I do like that.
It's also a way to support that person too.
Like you say, like this guy who is uncovering all the fraud people just started buying up his
token because they're like this guy's awesome he's doing awesome things let's just i just kind of
want to keep seeing him do awesome things you know yeah i do like that yeah okay i get it a bit more
now you put it i like it i do you see what actually i'll caveat i thought i do like it however i just
kind of think that how it's been done so far they have maybe kind of been a bit gimmicky with just
folks or where they said it brought like a whole suite where this was part of it we've got a social
system we got this that that but then again you know maybe that's the shit we can do it's really
it's really confusing like confusing for most people and i think they put uh they've added
this confusion on purpose so that nobody can ask
and figure it out and just
I doubt they did on purpose.
I think they probably overfitted.
Is to onboard newbies into the space.
So I think this was definitely...
Incentives. It's incentives.
people feel instantly rich.
Doge, for example, the first time it was posted as a meme, like, happened on a Web3 social media where every post is tokenized.
You know, or, like, one of these, like, actually viral memes and not just, like, necessarily calling it a meme, right?
Like, yeah, but would it ever be posted there first?
I mean, like, I think, like, they'd have to definitely work on, like, the, you know, the meme proliferation.
I know there are, like, some good channels that are dedicated to that, but, like, I don't know.
I mean, it's still growing, right?
I think that's the thing.
You know, launches the, or does a post, somebody else builds up the project and stuff.
They just sit there like, oh, they're going to build it up, but I own the post.
And then, you know, does that kind of of stuff happen or is that kind of accounted for
i don't see that happening in the space at all we're like what like you know somebody has a big
horde of the post and then they just dump it on their people mostly this isn't even about money
when i'm in the base app i'm in there like absorbing media there's just like people with
videos people making music people just like this is a. I mean, we've been talking with a lot of different communities about
censorship and how like Twitter is like shutting things down, making the social fi not even
available anymore. And so, you know, I was talking with, we had Rez up here from the UK, the MC,
and he was talking about like, you know, how he wasn't even on the base app. I said, you know,
you don't need to have base assets to check this thing out because it's really not about the assets.
It's about the fact it's a social media platform
that you can get yourself out there.
And all you need to do is have a crypto wallet.
You don't need to have a following.
And there's just like a, you know,
if people put out media that people like,
they're going to start collecting you
and you get some visualization that way.
And just real quick for clarity,
So BaseApp is the evolution of the
Coinbase wallet app, and you can do a bunch
of stuff in it, and the social side is
entirely the same content that you can
see in other Farcaster clients,
client that's called Farcaster that used to be
All confusing, but that's how it is. warpcast was the testing thing by the way when you're done
could you also share who acquired uh farcaster if you could share some details about that as well
yeah for sure um just one one quick thing on the on the zora token stuff so it is regular
erc20 tokens on a bonding curve so you can in theory do whatever you want
with them like other erc 20 tokens um like for for buying and selling you do need a liquidity pool
i would assume that there are ways to manually um add to the liquidity pool i'm not sure but i would
assume that's very possible.
EZ might know more about that. And of course, Jimmy has also done more with liquidity pools than last year and James and more people in the space probably. But yeah, so naturally how it
would build, of course, is through more people buying it. And also, Meta, just real quick,
the social graph, no, you don't need people buying your post, but just by having the on-chain wallet addresses and how they're linked to
Fargastar accounts, that gives you social information that's on-chain of who decided
to buy a token, right? And that's a social graph. It's not a following or follower social
graph, but it's a social information on chain who who bought which token at what price
and how much and whatnot um nana bought fargaster nana has been since very early on on fargaster
like yeah since two or three years ago um a provider basically of tooling and infrastructure
for developers in the fargaster ecosystem so So meaning most mini-apps in Farkaster,
which have very clearly contributed to some of the traction that's there
that's at least meaningful and more meaningful
than another decentralized Web3 experiment.
Still less meaningful than other non-Web3 decentralized social media experiments.
Farcaster wouldn't be where it is. And also, many of the
existing clients also use NENA
technology and tools and SDKs
So, yeah, that's what NENA is.
I've also pinned up something where it's linked in the comments.
And also, they have similar investors than Farkaster.
And that's why this happened, because Farkaster did raise like $150 million two years ago or something.
Naina only raised less than 20 million.
So Nena buying Farkaster is like,
Farkaster didn't raise the money.
which is a company behind Farkaster.
And yeah, so whatever money it was like actually paid
And it's also literally an announcement
from like three hours ago.
GM Farkaster on Friday will be
one place. It's a show on YouTube as well
Rish, one of the founders of NENA, will
speak about it. It's also
on the YouTube channel. GM Farkas will be recorded
and available. It's happening on Friday.
open. Lens was built by Mask Network yesterday. Mask Network has nothing to do with MetaMask.
And actually, also funnily enough, one of the people behind Mask Network, Suji,
is also very involved with Firefly. And Suji is also an investor in Naina.
Yeah, so cheers. And and also there's no currently available
bridge between lens and farcast as two networks um but there are bridges existing between mastodon
and blue sky so that's cool to see and let's hope there's something coming from lens and
farcast but i guess with firefly is something at least but yeah it's pretty cool to see all the
clients honestly maybe like eight functional clients right now or something at least so that's pretty exciting pretty dope yeah maybe this
acquisition real quick for anybody who's who wants to just use farcaster on the phone and doesn't
want to use the base app because it's financialized or something recaster is literally an app you can
go and you can even you can even scroll farcaster without without logging in. If you download Recaster in the App Store or Play Store,
Android or iOS, it just actually works on the phone.
Just call it Recaster, and it's not financialized.
It's fully focused on the content, and it works.
Interesting stuff going down for sure.
Maybe this little action will bring a little bit of action back to the markets.
I did just want to mention on the whole Zora coin thing, I was able to pull out, I don't know, this was like six months ago.
I pulled like 10 bucks out of my creator coin, which was like, you know, whatever, 10% or something of what I will be allocated.
Like just because I was like,
oh, it says I have like $900 worth of value,
but it's all locked up and basically fake.
So I'm gonna take a few bucks while I can.
I think it was like 10 bucks or something.
And I think it's kind of experimental
I don't think it was delivered in a super smooth, you know, way that's easy to understand for normies and stuff.
But it was maybe a spark in a moment of time and maybe they'll be able to refine it.
You know, the whole base app is basically using the Zora token stack to do their thing.
They've just opened up public, what, a month or so ago,
and I've had a couple million people come on.
So there's interest there.
There's things happening.
Yeah, it was about 1 million that came through the base app,
and about 1 million before.
So there's about 2 million users on Fargaster.
There's about 40-50 million users on
BlueSky just for some scale um threads signed up 100 million people in one day I mean obviously
that's people who already had Instagram accounts but um yeah and there's actually there's another
thing that um in Farkaster in the Farkaster app um so yeah the app that's called Farkaster that
used the same app that used to be called Warpcast you can now bid on casts so if if the creator of the cast um enabled it someone can
just start a bid and then the cast basically becomes an nft like like you were saying jimmy
if like doge happened on like as a meme origination point happened on a social platform
then then the original thing could more easily
be be tokenized the the casts are not directly on the blockchain but if you bid on it there's
like an nft that gets created and then there's a 24-hour auction that's live and so people can
bid on it and the interesting thing for me from that is um the entire um amount, the final highest bid, let's say it's $5,
creator of the cast, whoever
And then that's it. It's done.
There's no token, there's no trading.
And with the creator coins,
of someone's creator coin,
the creator maybe gets fees,
like maybe 5 cents or something from the fee.
I mean, yeah, technically there's like a fees thing
but one of the issues that I have with it is,
yeah, there's just a huge discrepancy.
If you buy a certain amount,
a lot less goes to the actual creator, right?
Which is one of the differences
to how Patreon or Substack, for instance,
also work and like other direct support things all right um yeah yeah i believe it's a minimum
one dollar bid to start to buy a cast on farcaster and again you get an nft like representing that
cast you wouldn't necessarily own like if you bought a cast because there's dope artwork you're not necessarily owning that artwork um so that's i think an important
distinction as well yeah it's like supporting that artwork and like also saying like um you know
being a part of it and that artist can then now track you actually which was a really cool thing
back in the og days of nfts it was just like you get i mean still actually one of my like old oldest wallets i can't even touch because
there's a bot strap to it and i accidentally entered it into a malicious code site and removed
all my nfts before the hacker could do anything about it but um i don't know what my point was
be really careful out there, guys.
Yeah, a lot of history in some of our wallets, that's for sure.
Sorry, EZ, what were you just saying?
I really wanted to go off that.
I was talking about the buying casts and not necessarily owning the art, but, you know, supporting the creator.
And then I was just saying that there's a lot of history in some of our wallets.
I mean, I've got community coins from like early 2019 that, of course, went to zero because I diamond handed forever, but I wanted to support those communities.
So I've got a lot of just blockchain history since, uh you know late 2018 is when i first started interacting
with uh web3 we didn't even call it web3 it was just blockchain or crypto um social media and that
that the platform i started on was called scent and it was based on the ethereum uh blockchain
and you could give tips in ethereum and there were like leaderboards for the tippers they were called cedars it was i mean it was amazing i met a lot of great people that i'm still
very close with to this day and what's cool is what you're saying is this is nothing new we've
always been doing this we've always had these little communities creating their little pockets
of coins i remember the guy who sent me my first crypto ever he sent me um to ether and was just
like here i'm like what the heck
this is money and one day he's just like I got all these shit coins man you got like a wallet I
can send them to like I just I don't mess with ether I'm on bitcoin and just like you know I
just got this wallet of like no liquidity just coins that you know he just invested in because
he was like spunked about the community at the time like you know back in 2019 we didn't have
these whole creative profiles the chain was
clunky things barely worked and we were just like dollar and a dream that sounds cool let's see where
that goes and so no i really appreciate your input man you're an og you've been around since
since the trenches the true trenches
the true trenches let's grow man impact concert tomorrow hope to see you all there it's gonna be
dope impact concert is tomorrow it is 4 30 in the morning i've just been keeping the spaces going
