Thank you. Thank you. Welcome in everyone, sorry about that.
It looks like we're playing the Russian roulette of X spaces again.
I'm just going to play some tunes,
so if you can tap on the bottom right on the purple bit
and share the space.
Apologies for it.
Unfortunately, it was out of my hands.
We're going to play a bit of music
whilst we welcome people into the space.
La, la, la, la, wait till I get my money right.
I had a dream I could buy my way to heaven when i woke i spent
that on a necklace i told god i'll be back in a second man it's so hard not to act reckless
the whole much is getting tested get arrested guess until he get the message
i feel the pressure under more scrutiny.
And what I do, act more stupidly.
More jewelry, more Louis V.
My mama couldn't get through to me.
The drama, people suing me.
I'm on TV talking like it's just you and me.
I'm just saying how I feel, man.
I ain't one of the Cosby's. I ain't go to Hill, man.
I guess the money should have changed them.
I guess I should have forgot where I came from. La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la I'll out and you can't tell me nothing, right? Excuse me, was you saying something?
Uh-uh, you can't tell me nothing.
You can't tell me nothing.
Uh-uh, you can't tell me nothing.
Let up the suicide doors.
This is my life, only you decide yours.
I know that Jesus died for us.
But I couldn't tell you who the side was.
So I parallel double talk that motherf***er sideways.
Old folks talking about back in my day.
But homie, this is my day.
Class started two hours ago.
Oh, am I late?
No, I already graduated.
And you can live through anything if magic made it.
They say I talk with so much emphasis.
Ooh, they so sensitive.
Don't ever fix your lips like collagen to say something when you're gonna end up apologizing.
Let me know if it's a problem, man.
Aight, man, hollering it. problem You can't tell me nothing. You can't tell me nothing.
Uh-uh, you can't tell me nothing.
Let the champagne splash.
Let that man get past.
Let that man get past.
He only ain't stopped to get gas.
If he can move through the rumors, he can drive off of fumes,
cuz I ain't move in a room full of no's.
I stay faithful in a room full of... Must be the pharaohs, he in tune with his soul.
So ain't he buried in a tomb full of gold?
Pleasure, what's your pleasure?
Life is an earth depending how you dress her.
So if the devil wear prada, Adam Eve wear nada,
I'm in between but way more fresher.
But way less effort. effort is when you try hard
it's when you die hard your homies looking like why god when they reminisce over you my god
My money right, la la la, la la la, and you can't tell me nothing right.
Excuse me, you saying something?
Uh-uh, you can't tell me nothing.
You can't tell me nothing.
Uh-uh, you can't tell me nothing.
La la la la, would you like to get my money right?
La, la, la, then you can't tell me nothing right.
What a weird good place.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I'm serious, I got money.
Oh, good tonic, baby.
Oh, good tonic, baby.
What a weird, weird place.
Oh, good tonic, baby. Welcome in everyone, apologies for that. The initial space got rugged and I tried opening
another two spaces up and that also got rugged also. It seems to be a thing at the moment with
X Spaces. I've been lucky the last few that I've opened up that they've just been seamless.
But a couple prior to that, they just keep rugging and that.
And I mean, you've got a guy behind it like Elon Musk that's wanting to send people to Mars.
I mean, would you really want to get on to one of his rockets when he can't even get these spaces running properly?
So we're welcoming everyone.
This is episode seven of Shill the Beans.
So this space is called the Good Friday Shill Show XPX SD and Friends. Well it was originally
but I kind of shortened it down for the new space so happy Easter to everyone that respects and
celebrates that tradition. I'm our lead dev team of XPX Token,
which is an off-ramp and payment utility provider in the space.
So we really do have some big hitters on this space this time.
I mean, we've got the likes of FEG Token with its SD Launchpad,
we've got Poorchain, we've got Kendo, we've got XPX,
and all the other players that keep pulling up time and time again.
I'd like to emphasise the original kind of friends bit of the space
and that's because that's what we're all trying to do,
what's best for the projects and communities.
I like to get to know the people behind the projects.
I think that's really important and that, mean this is a it's a wag me movement and everyone's welcome to work to pull up and show what they're doing in the space
no one pays to come on so with that I'll do the boring bit at the moment and just say do your own
research non-financial advice but I really say to anyone looking to get into any project
kind of take your time do your due diligence get to know the token get into any project, kind of take your time, do your due diligence,
get to know the tokenomics behind the project, get to know the communities,
and most importantly get to know the team actually behind that project.
So it's kind of frowned me off a little bit with getting rugged because you're kind of ready and
you're erring to go and you're like yeah you've got this clear vision in your mind and what what you're going to say and what you're discussing
and everything else on the space so when stuff happens like that your brain kind of goes into
a wire and you're like oh my god I need to create I need to create a new space and uh but these
things happen and uh unfortunately with um with X it seems to happen quite a bit and uh I can see
people going across to Arena and like we've got Trollking on here at the moment, who's the community lead for XPX Token.
He's been doing a lot on Arena and it definitely seems less buggy.
But I mean, we can speak to him in a little bit about that.
So the whole idea around this space and bringing everyone together is, like I said, it's a Wagmi movement.
I was sat last night just having a glass of wine and a cigar and I like to kind of always think
about what I'm going to talk about or the projects actually come into the space and
I was kind of thinking we all have a lot more in common than we actually think and I was thinking
of a couple of the projects that were coming on. I mean, if someone wants to launch their vision,
a lot of people are very passionate about stuff
but may not have the kind of know-how about contracts,
smart contracts and all the rest of it.
So I was thinking like, well, they can go to FEG token,
smart DeFi launchpad, fully adjustable tokenomics.
They can do a liquidity generation event.
And then I was thinking, thinking well that's all amazing and
everything else but then when people want more they want to be available on multiple chains
that and i was thinking well they can actually go to poor chain and they can actually like a
single drop they can have their project available on multiple chains for trading and stuff so that
that's really impressive and then i kind of thought well uh xpx
kind of fits into everything and that's and one of the main things well the only thing is that
the projects have in common is that they have holders they have investors and at some point
as much as being a project devon i'm sure you guys are out there do it people are going to want to
off-ramp and i was thinking well they can do that with the xpx visa virtual card or physical cards they can do bill payments and that so when
you look at it as a whole and you see it as a bigger picture in that we're all kind of there to
support each other and we've all have uh functionalities or we all have utility which
which helps everyone else in the space and And that's why I like doing these.
It's bringing projects together.
It's bringing ecosystems together.
Because when we all work together, we're all going to make it.
And so I'm not going to talk too much longer.
We've already lost a bit of the space.
I'm going to try and keep it under two hours.
And that because, let's face it, we all take time away from our families.
We all take time away from our friends to join these spaces, trying to do what's best
for our projects, do what's best for our communities.
I'm not even going to bother talking about the market because that's just going to take
care of itself and a lot of stuff going on with the tariffs and all the rest of it and
I mean, it's out of our hands and that we just can keep building on what we're doing.
So we have an amazing lineup here today
we have that we have tech we have memes we have some new projects that are going to be uh uh
launching within the next couple of months um so i'm going to do what i usually do i'm not going
to go in any particular order uh waiting for uh uh rtr on uh feg to come up on anyone to come up
early but he says it'd be work dependence and stuff.
So what I'm going to do then, Brian, because I know
you've got a bit of a time constraint, I'm going to pull you up
first and tell us what you're doing
with POR and what you can offer
everyone in the space.
Ladies and gentlemen, our host, Ali.
Can you hear me, Brian? You're up, brother.
Yeah, yeah. Sorry, man. I'm having connection issues.
I think everybody's having that problem this morning on X, you know, par for the course. Can you hear me all right?
Yeah, I can hear you fine.
Okay, good, good. I'm doing well this morning, man. Happy Good Friday
to everybody, you know, who celebrates. I hope
everybody has a great Easter weekend.
I know I'm looking forward to the
Sunday brunch that my sister
hosts every year. It's always
a massive amount of
good food and seeing the family kind of get
caught up is always a fun thing. So I hope you guys all have a safe and happy Easter weekend
if you celebrate with the family, of course. But yeah, I'll get right in the pod chain, guys. I
know many people in here are familiar with the project. For those who are not, I'm just going
to share a quick story that kind of explains exactly what we do.
And, you know, everyone in here I know remembers the Trump coin meme craze in the end of January.
That came in and for a few days just absolutely took over and the Solana blockchain went absolutely parabolic. And it seemed like overnight other chains were just bleeding liquidity
as everybody was leaving those chains and those projects to go chase the Trump coin.
And I would say that that kind of kicked off this downturn.
And I don't think the space, especially the mean markets, have recovered since.
Everybody's just kind of been beaten down
from all that liquidity leaving and rushing to the Solana blockchain. And the way PawChain works
is we don't have to worry about what liquidity is on each chain. What's the hot chain? It's
suey hot right now. Everyone's going to Tron. Everyone's going to Solana. We're able to tap
into liquidity on all those chains.
And if you deploy a pool, your liquidity will be available on all those chains from a single location.
So just for an example, if Trump coin were to launch, say he launched on Pawchain,
people wouldn't have to come in and bridge to the network.
They'd be able to pull up with their phantom wallet, with their MetaMask wallet, Coinbase wallet,
They'd be able to pull up with their Phantom wallet, with their MetaMask wallet, Coinbase wallet, with Base, Ethereum, BSC, AVAX, Solana, Optimism, etc.
And we'd just be able to buy it with the click of a button.
That's the difference.
So when liquidity leaves the chain, in your project, you're kind of at the mercy of, is that chain hopping right now?
Is the liquidity rushing to that chain?
At PawChain, say the BSC network is kind of slowing down.
You're still connected to Solana.
You're still connected to Ethereum.
You know, say Ethereum starts to take off.
It's that access to the liquidity.
And our chain is built in a way that isn't constrained by old technology or old networks,
you know, trying to fix the scalability issues that Ethereum has with the layer twos when it comes to cost security.
And then, you know, interoperability, you know, that communication between the chains.
And that's kind of what we do. We're not here to necessarily fix problems.
We're here to solve problems. And we built a custom chain that does that. That's different.
We're not bound by the constraints of old
blockchain structure. And I would say over the last eight, nine years, trying to fix some of
these current chains, especially Ethereum with all the layer twos, while they have made progress,
it's made the space kind of convoluted and difficult to navigate. And they're still just
not there yet. Do I think they can get there?
Yeah, I do.
I really do.
I still believe in Ethereum for sure.
I think the technology is unbelievable.
The way Ethereum was built, it was built to be a tank, built to be secure.
It's just that kind of the block time and the scalability speed thing
that they're trying to overcome.
But I think eventually they'll get there.
But at PodChain, we're kind of already there.
We got this chain live, and we just connect these other networks,
so we don't have to fix them, and we're going to continue to do so.
So if you're a project, if you're interested, if you want to learn more about it,
feel free to reach out, and we can get started, talk about the process of onboarding.
If you have any other questions, my DMs are always open and feel free to reach out and we can talk about it.
Shil, always a pleasure coming up here. AI Alpha, Larry, everybody else up on the stage,
Troll King, XPX, Prevail. I see a lot of you guys in these spaces still working, still grinding.
And that means something, just showing up every day, fulfilling your promises, bringing some transparency to the space that is desperately, desperately needed.
As we all know, a majority of projects just come and go, promise things, don't deliver on them.
And, you know, that's where we really want to stand out.
So kudos to everybody. I hope you guys all have a great weekend and thanks for the time as always.
Yeah, thanks.
Thanks, Brian, for pulling up.
I love what you guys are doing and building.
And I was just going to ask you,
how are you kind of finding adoption at the moment now?
How are you finding you kind of inroads into projects?
And is it something that you find an easy task
or is it as to say a little bit of a
hard sell or do you think that has anything to do with the market at the moment i think it's a little
bit of everything it is definitely difficult you know uh being the new chain competitive especially
bootstrapping um with the you know the funds that we paid you know out of our own pockets our devs
own pockets um it's been difficult to kind of scale and grow and get people to trust just
because we're new and that stuff just kind of takes time.
But we're making progress.
I will say that marketing conditions haven't helped.
Behind the scenes, we're doing a pretty big restructuring organization,
kind of getting our business end in order so we can start making
those moves to be able to help secure funding to help expedite the process, to enable a proper
marketing plan. All those things that you need to do, it just takes time. And with new tech,
it's one of those things that takes time. And we've only been live for nine months, but we are growing.
The developments are still coming.
And I believe eventually these projects will see it.
We will see success.
I say it all the time.
We just need that one project on chain to do well.
And, you know, I think that's going to happen sometime this year, actually.
Yeah, right. I completely agree with you, to be fair.
And I've looked into what you're doing as a project quite a lot.
And the user interface is really smooth and really fresh and everything else.
And I think, like you're saying, if you're a new project for a new chain or anything, it takes a while to kind of build up that trust in the market.
I mean, we're seeing ourselves with what we're doing.
It's kind of almost front running the meta.
And I think when people catch up to it with what you guys are doing,
what we're doing and what a lot of other projects are doing,
that when we start seeing more of retail coming into the market and that.
And I think the solution you offer is brilliant i think it's it's a very good project and seems to have a strong core
team and i think it will just continue to grow and i think i i do like what it offers and i know we
were chatting last night and that and i wanted to make some introductions to you with the uh into
kind of the uh the fed token and the smart defy
ecosystem because i think it's certainly something that you'd be able to assist in as a project and
that's what i like doing on these spaces and i like trying to make any introductions uh we're
still waiting for uh for rtr coming up i know he said he was uh it was going to be a bit of a time
constraint with work but uh we'll have uh we'll have one of the guys coming up from Fegtoken at some point anyway. So I'd be happy to make that introduction for you guys. And
we all know when people talk behind the scenes and these relationships grow and these partnerships
or collaborations happen, and then it's a kind of win-win situation.
Absolutely, man. And I look forward to it. That'm always that that's what these spaces are really for, guys. It's about networking. It's about expanding your reach. I was actually I hop on the Crypto Breakfast Club quite often. We're partners with them and Zach Humphries. and the position now to really be excited from those connections that I would have never made
if I didn't join that space and meet some of these amazing people that are really going to
help us scale and build out. And talking about being a small project, I think a lot of people
just look at market cap and see this is a successful project without focusing on the
infrastructure. Really go down and look into ecosystems and you'll see, you know,
what they're really made of.
I was in the middle because I spent the last five to six weeks doing extensive
market research on many different competitors, different projects.
And I was in the middle of researching mantra OM.
And third day of my research is when it crashed.
And I re I was sending texts and messages to people on our
team be like hey uh there's a lot of red flags with mantra and they're a top 20 crypto project
and i don't know how they didn't have users yeah they didn't have users they didn't know
volume they didn't have projects no look% bundled on one exchange. Yes.
There's a lot. Oh, my gosh, dude.
So many red flags, and people normally don't dig that deep.
Just go to Deep Alana.
You can get all this information.
I just want to say something, Brian.
Congratulations on your PSP.
That's Brian right there.
Little known fact.
That was Brian.
Thanks, man.
Little known fact about PodChain, also a partner of some of the protocols I advise on.
But, you know, the core team, the dev team at Podchain are some of the original SHIB team.
So not a widely known fact, but I've known some of them since the last super cycle and have worked with the likes of ConsenSys and a lot of other ecosystems in their inception, right?
So I just want to tell you that they are not something new.
You know, it's kind of a, the team, yeah, has some really battle-hardened,
and if you look at some of the unique solutions, you know,
and what I like about it, they're pretty honest, too.
Like, they know that, like most protocols right now, liquidity is a huge challenge, right? When you're developing
all of these new products, it's expensive. And sometimes it's an evolution, right? So it's a
moving evolution, you know, but my idea, though, for XPX, FAG, and for PAW is to have a utility
layer. What I mean by that is, you is you know podchain has a great user interface
xpx and feg have all these financial products right if you integrated them together on a
universal access layer you know with uh podchains technology man it wouldn't just be how many more
people you would onboard but it would be the ease of use, right? And I think that's the big play right there.
That's, I want to stay on here, Shiel,
but I'm in D.C. right now.
I got to get back to work.
But I want, I keep my promise.
I told you I'd be on here.
And I just wanted, that was my idea.
I just couldn't see FAG and XPX and Podchain
not working together to provide an instant access layer.
I think that would be the big play.
You know, that's something I would get behind because I'm very familiar.
You can ask Brian,
very familiar with a couple of their founders and their devs.
And I know the product well.
And I also know what kind of financial products and access user base potential
XPX has. Right.
And then you just have F's, you know, following,
you have their community,
and then also they have some pretty unique innovations.
So you just look at the cross-liquidity potential
between the three protocols to cross-pollinate, right?
And then you have a universal indoctrination layer,
if you want to call it that.
You want to be layer and chain agnostic, right?
But having XPX or FEG be accessible on multi-chain with PAW and having the speed to complete
these said transactions is important.
So I came here for Shill and for my other friends here.
I just wanted to drop that little uh that
little nugget of something that i saw you know shout out to kendu kenji and og uh peanut and
the rest of the dog tokens here marvin phoenix uh everyone here from pod chain and stuff uh
hashai people as well uh again it's one hunky-dory family. Some of you heard me get into a good argument on Zach's space.
But I'm going to hop off now because my bullshit filter is only for so much for a night.
What was the argument centered around, Larry?
I'm just curious.
I didn't hear the space this morning.
It's Good Friday so I just
Want to say that
Some people no matter how passionate
That they are about
Their views and their topics
Should never misconstrue
Facts with receipts
Just wanting to be right so bad that
He's willing to give bad information and also
Put himself or put others at risk because man you those are some whopper-sized claims man and uh
you know just i'm not an ego guy but i've been around here and people know i'm big on receipts
and coming through with facts man i i have people know i really don't have any ego in this i just
you know i'm from a security background in a cid background that's what i do that's my that's facts, man. I have, people know, I really don't have any ego in this. I just,
you know, I'm from a security background and a CID background. That's what I do. That's my, that's to the point where, yeah, it doesn't even make me money and they lose it sometimes. Right.
But just, just to say that, you know, it's, uh, when we have a responsibility to get factual information,
we also have a responsibility for all of the new people that are coming in
to give them a better optic on what we're doing in DeFi and Web3
so that we can keep decentralization and hyper deflationary mechanisms alive.
Because whether we know it or not, we have so much centralization coming.
With that, we have a huge influx of opinions and people and egos. But at the end of the day,
you know, facts are facts. And I've been in this space doing what I've been doing
without, you know, crossing the boundaries for a long time because I'm okay with it. If I eat a
good dinner, if I, you know I am able to take some trips,
sometimes to travel to work, that makes me very happy.
I don't have a Lambo.
I don't have a Ferrari.
I don't have a yacht.
I don't have any of that.
But I have my health and my constitution and my words.
So that was about it.
It's just, you know, I wish them the best on Good Friday,
but I'm sure some of you heard it.
I'm going to
check out the recording.
I'm curious where this kind of went.
If a balloon
could be, if a hot air balloon could
be puffed with a mouth, I'm going to
make a joke. This would be the size
of the Hindenburg.
Just some big-ass
cap. Super cap it it made me want to
pass gas it was so much cap bro i i didn't know what to do and uh it's just and then when you
take over someone's show when you don't when you don't even let zach talk or paid talk or whoever
at least come to you know i think that's one of the better reasons of some of these
spaces that people have some home training. You wouldn't do that in front of your mom or your dad,
or if you have kids, right? Why would you do that in public on a recorded space?
I don't know. I'm blown away sometimes, but in the hopes of goodwill, I just, it's Good Friday.
I want everyone to have a blessed day. And Cheryl, I'll be in your DMs as well later
because, and cats too. I have a lot of appointments to catch up on, but right now I'm doing my due
diligence and doing my duty for our lovely country, right? So trying to bring some equilibrium,
win, lose, or draw, right? So I wish you guys all the best, and I hope that you enjoy the weekends with your families and that
be feeling blessed that we have so much good things about to happen that's all I can say you
know you know Jerome Powell's about to be gone you know Gary Gensler's about to have a job
somewhere in DeFi he's a Bitcoin maxi it always has been but now he's a DeFi maxi
and you know that's really a powerful narrative when you look at, oh, yeah, Brian, I dropped that outfit.
He'll have a job somewhere in the top five largest crypto related, DeFi related financial.
It's wild.
It's so wild.
Bro, you know, that's a powerful narrative.
If you can change the bitter light bulb and face on this guy, and he can give it a fair shake.
Why can't everyone else?
So that's what I'm saying.
Everyone deserves a fair shake, win, lose, or draw.
And that's what's different about this space.
It's not about your borders or where you're from.
It's about people coming together to try to sustain something that will ensure democratization,
a little bit of independence for a little while longer while we got it.
Many of you have a legacy to leave your children.
Most of them will not be able to buy a home in the future
or many other basic commodities, so this might be one of the last lifelines.
You know, this is reality already in a lot of third world or developing nations,
and it's a privilege for us to be sitting here speaking and enjoying each other's company.
And so, man, don't take this shit so serious sometimes, you know, give each other a pat on the back and say it's going to be OK.
Like Shill said, you can't judge the value of what you consider valuable based on the narrative of a chart.
valuable based on the narrative of a chart. That was a case I would have hung myself a long time
That was a case I would have hung myself a long time ago.
ago. Had six extinction-level liquidity events in the last, what, four months post-election cycle.
So it's DeFi that's keeping this alive, you know? So yeah, pat yourself on the back. Enjoy this
good Friday and your Easter for those that observe. Passover, Sabbath, whatever you want to call it
for yourselves and
I'm gonna take my leave thanks show for letting me have the time I don't want to take any more
time I know you got a strict schedule and uh I wish all of the memes and the utility plays here
the most success so I'll take my leave now guys
hey Larry really um appreciate you coming up and I think think you hit the nail on the head with it's just about bringing everyone together and I see so many spaces that the narrative's just so much controlled by the host and their perception of what's going on and if people don't like it they're kicked out or whatever else and that's that's not me and that's not what i'm
doing as a person and there's it's certainly not what i'm doing as a project with xpx it's about
uniting the clans not having that tribal mindset whether you can't listen to or appreciate someone
else's outlook or market perspective or whatever they want to talk about and that's the reason I'll never charge
these spaces and that and because I think once you kind of start filtering across into that
you're kind of then starting to support narratives who's just going to actually
pay you the most money or promote the projects because they paid you five grand or they paid
you ten grand to actually promote it where nine out of ten people in space couldn't really give a crap about the project they're just gonna
do it for the money so that that's where i'm kind of honest and that's what i'm doing as a project
with uh with xpx and that was we're building for everyone and i can see brian that's what you're
doing at poor chain and that as well and i really appreciate pulling up i know we've talked on the
dms and that and about different
things and same with larry and i mean he's an amazing guy in the space now i really appreciate
his perspective because he's a kind of top advisor for some institutions and stuff and
that's quite incredible when he has that kind of say and the people he speaks with
larry's one of those guys that when he talks, I'm listening.
He's that level of intelligence and of transparency and just really one of those voices, strong voices for positivity and change and bringing actual legitimacy to the space, man.
He is honestly one of my favorite guys to listen to. Anytime I'm in
a space that he's in, he always speaks, commands a room, has a level of respect and knowledge
that many people in the space simply don't have. And those are the people I want to learn from.
Everybody in this room, guys, we should all be in these spaces, not only listen to these other
projects and what they're building, but learning a little bit of something, you know, learning
something they didn't know before, kind of peeling back the onion and understanding what's
going on behind the scenes, what's forming these micro trends, what's going to make up
this macro trend.
And yes, even though the market's down right now, in my opinion, in the macro, you know,
I think we're in pretty good shape.
Like Larry said, we've held up to six extinction-level events that in the past would have
wiped out the market and sent us right into a total bear market tailspin.
And we are still here, still surviving, and that's just showing the strength of the space.
So I challenge everybody
get out there learn something understand something pick something to learn liquidity
understand how it works you know make yourself a better uh person because you'll be more
successful in this space if you do so i gotta take off though man i wish all these other projects well
uh have a happy easter if you celebrate Passover, whatever you're celebrating, just do it safely.
And most importantly, enjoy the time with your friends and family.
That is very important, guys. You can't take care of a project.
You can't network. You can't do anything unless you take care of yourself and your personal life.
take care of yourself and your personal life.
So don't forget that.
So don't forget that.
Thanks, Brian.
Yeah, very, very wise words.
And like you say, yeah, about Larry,
he's one of them people that speaks
and you listen to what he's saying.
And he's just got such a rounded background
in the space that you can't help
that be drawn into his knowledge
and what he's not just actually doing
with the people he's working with but the
people he's actually advising and I think that the big thing you just said there was just take
some time and spend it with your family whether it's Good Friday if you work if you celebrate
Easter or whatever day you celebrate or you get that off day and that I think it's important to
have a bit of downtime and chilling it it gives you the perspective that sometimes you'll come up with something when your mind's relaxed and your body's relaxed uh
that's really going to help your project and that so i appreciate you pulling up for poor chain it's
a project i'm very excited about and and like larry was saying that you've got the likes of
fag toko invest and you've got the likes of uh xpx and uh like i was saying at the start of the show
and that i mean i'm sure that there's collaborations there somewhere i'm sure the way these projects can
work together that we all offer something um in return for each other's exposure so i really
appreciate you pulling up and have a great easter brother right i'm going to go now guys to cats for crypto he actually dropped me a dm a little bit ago before
larry came on and said he was kind of pushed for time so if you're still on a cats for crypto
grab the stage brother there we go i had to push the button down on the headset so everybody could hear me. Good morning, Brian, everybody, our friends, RedPhoenix, OGPNet, everybody.
And, of course, the up-and-coming new project, Soul Snake, brought to you by AI Wolf.
Just saying.
He's floating around here somewhere.
There's so many people in here this morning.
This is probably the hottest space every Friday.
I'm just kind of starting to take notice here real quick. It fills up a lot quicker than most of them
So that's the way it goes
So i'm gonna throw this down real fast
A lot of people know cats crypto and a lot of people are still learning about cats crypto even after
Almost being one year old on the 26th
being on chain.
Okay, but I got to work with my son here at the same time because we're trying to get ready to get out the door.
Catch a Crypto was started on the basis or the idea of a hashtag on a YouTube crypto live stream
between myself and Novo Bortek, who is no longer with us.
He's since passed away. It's been over a year now, just about a few days. crypto live stream between myself and oval vortec who is no longer with us he's uh since
passed away uh it's been over a year now just by a few days um and uh we're not gonna get into that
the whole thing there but oh we're i gotta pick somebody up oh that was different anyway
Oh, that was different.
So we decided, and through the whole process of everything, that ticker symbol is going to be COC.
So yes, you can pass that around if you want to figure that one out.
And that we were going to support emotional support animals or service animals like cats and dogs.
But of course.
Yeah, see, he said too um and saint jude's yeah
that was suggested by his family after his passing um we've been doing a lot of different things uh
we're partnered with pull pot prevail swap and we love their friends over there at the prevail token
yes 30 different chains you two can jump out for a roughly like one quarter
of bnb i feel like a commercial but it's good um you can also find us over on memezilla which you
know give us a vote if you want come on over there um i've run dextrade you know which is our
centralized exchange i'm not super happy with them but we're there so it's one accomplishment
we can't complain about um we're definitely looking into doing a lot of things with a lot of liquidity pools.
We're always willing to help other people set liquidity pools up.
We don't charge for that.
We make a request that maybe you support us in the process somehow.
Silly boy.
Here. Here. Anyway, silly boy. Quick. Here.
Anyway, he's...
So, you get to get a journal idea.
I've got a lot of things going on.
So, sorry for the interruptions, but he's wanting to go.
So, with that said, and that in mind, of course, you know, we are looking to do some stuff cross-chain on our own.
And we're doing some research or some reading.
Also, that costs money to do.
God, you know, Prevail Swap.
We've got that, too.
You can buy merch from there.
You know, catchcrypto.meme.
That is the website. And I've got so much you can buy merch from there you know catchcrypto.meme that is the website
and i've got so much more to fill in i just don't have the time i'm sorry guys usually i say more
and we have a greater conversation but you know he's complaining he wants to do this and that and
everything else and he's two so he runs the house i I really appreciate you pulling up.
And I know a lot of people have time constraints,
whether it's holidays or whether it's just IRL and that.
And you can hear in the background,
sounds like you have your kind of hands full and everything else.
And fair play to you to still coming up and talking about your projects
and what you're creating.
So say to everyone, give any of the speakers a follow.
If you haven't already done so, share the space in the bottom right,
the purple button, and let's see if we get more people on.
But at Katsa Crypto, when you do have a little bit more time,
I like to try and change the times of the spaces
because we have projects that are all around the world
and I had a few that messaged me and said oh it's too late in the evening
and I know Larry's like Singapore and a couple of projects are Asian and
everything else and so today was a good time to do it when I'm doing it because
I'm actually a bit I'm actually off with it being Good Friday so it's it's a
great time to do space but you're always welcome on Catcher Crypto, and hopefully next time you come on,
you have a little bit more time to discuss what you're actually doing in more detail,
because you always pull up, and I appreciate that.
Doing my best.
I mean, a lot of people, like I said, can fill in the blanks.
You know, I know Red Finks, she would give a little bit of time.
I did want to add one thing
if you happen to be in London, and I know that Wolf started a token there on Caspa, but he's said
in the past, and we've had this conversation about, you can go into Wolfie's bar, you can get
yourself some to eat or drink, and say, hey, I heard you take Katz of crypto, and he'll take it,
and your meal's paid for, so long as you have it, right? He'll heard you take cats of crypto and he'll take it and your meal is paid for so long as you have it.
He'll pretty much take almost any crypto.
But I want to emphasize on that real fast because, like I said, there's so many more things I got and I never have enough time.
I think I had more time last week overall.
And, you know, but I get I've got this boy here, 365, 24-7, and I can't complain,
except for when he's tearing up at stuff that I have no idea what he's tearing into.
Oh, he found a piece of candy.
So I'm going to give him his candy, and I'm going to get packed up.
So he's candy, candy, candy.
So meow, guys, have a great day, whatever you do.
Remember, kids can be fun, but can you tell them meow?
Okay, have a great day, guys.
Have a great day.
We'll move along to uh the uh the next project if no one has any questions and that
we've got kojak on who's going to be speaking for uh kendu can see kendu main up here uh kojak are
you still the speaker brother i am can you guys hear me can hear you perfectly mate awesome thanks
for having us um i know a lot of people in here know of Kendo.
It's kind of a well-known project in this space,
but I'll give you a quick rundown of kind of the basics by the numbers.
I'll keep it quick, but then hop over to what I think the alpha is.
Launched February 21st of 2024, ran up to $284 million all-time high.
Launched February 21st of 2024.
This is on Ethereum, but we've since bridged to Solana and Base via Wormhole Protocol, which is pretty nice.
So if you want to trade on those chains, you certainly can.
If you want to trade on those chains, you certainly can.
It's the same community, same token, same supply, everything, same price,
just on a different chain if you want to trade there.
We're on, I guess, 13 now centralized exchanges, 18,000 holders.
So, yeah, that's kind of the by the numbers. But I want to I've been kind of moving away from and the team has as well moving away from calling it a meme token and more so a community token.
So, yeah, that's kind of the by the numbers.
on what we've gone through as a community the past year, year and a half almost,
and just become a really tight-knit community.
Community members are getting together in real life,
like literally meeting each other in real life.
They're sending each other gifts that one of our beloved community members
just sent care packages that are in the shape of Easter eggs with
like custom Kendu um like chocolates and suckers and even alcohol uh she just sent it to a bunch
of Kendu community members which is super nice for Easter uh but yeah this is just a small example
of like how tight knit would become um in the last um almost year a little bit over a year
so yeah um other than that um i know you've been following along shill for for a while and you've
had us up on spaces with axel which is great um so i guess i'll just focus on the most recent updates. Let me go ahead and it looks like we got a post already on the Jumbotron.
But this last weekend, we sponsored an event in Orlando called Flora Groves.
It's a music festival.
Two weekends before that, we sponsored an entire weekend, actually, of events in Miami.
During Miami Music Festival, we shipped an entire pallet of the Can Do Energy drinks that are done by community members, by the way, not the project.
Shipped an entire pallet of, I think, 4,000 cans and handed them out over the course of the last three weekends at these events in Florida, which is pretty awesome.
Among other things, we sponsored a breakdancing showcase, a cypher showcase, where we awarded the winner cash and a bunch of Kendi swag, which was pretty sweet. If you want to see videos of that stuff,
they should be easily kind of findable on the Kendi main page there.
I've also been kind of,
I realized pretty quickly in Kendi that there's so much going on just in terms
of community initiatives that I need to like
document it before it just gets lost in the shuffle. And so every month I basically publish
an X article called Community Spotlights, where you basically review the preceding month with everything that everyone's doing.
So I can pin that in a second, but the next, the next iteration of that I'll publish at the end of the month.
But I just needed that to like, both from a, from a historical perspective,
it's fun to look back on things. And like I said,
there's just so much going on that it's hard to keep track of everything.
So yeah, I'll, I just rambled on for a while.
But any questions or thoughts?
Yeah, I appreciate you coming up at short notice.
I know it's usual Axel that comes up,
but he's still getting over his uh yeah whatever he had and that but uh i i love the
the kendu community for a few reasons uh and partly because kendu empowers the community to
to actually go out there into the world like you're saying with your uh with the energy drinks
and stuff like that i mean that didn't come about through Kendo it came about through a community member and I think that's quite amazing that you empower the communities just
to be able to say you know what I want to do this I want to do that and you've got your guy in India
who came up and he's doing the entertainment things and stuff like that I think it's just
incredible and I mean that's how you grow as a project as a community and everyone has a little part and I'm sure these guys didn't think a year ago or two years ago
they'd be doing the entertainment business for Kendo or they wouldn't be doing a drinks
drinks company for Kendo and that so it's super impressive and I think it's a kind of epitome of what kind of all meme projects should kind of look at.
And I think the way you guys build is amazing.
And I see the super strength.
And I was on one of a space the other day with, I think, a couple of your founders of Kendu who are actually in a relationship in real life.
I'm trying to think of something oh i can't remember the name something satoshi cat or something like that
yeah that was it and i was on that space and just uh
that it's just incredible stories and this this is what the space is about before
we get into the future of cryptocurrency,
where it's kind of so mainstream that it's no longer about how these projects started.
It's just about being a financial infrastructure.
And I think that's the important thing to get these stories out there.
And because you've got people in relationships with each other. You've got drinks. You've got masks.
You've got entertainment businesses all being built out of an ecosystem
that didn't exist a few years ago.
And I think it's really incredible what you guys are doing.
And I really appreciate you pulling up and coming to speak about Kendo.
And you guys are always welcome.
And I kind of take my hat off to how you guys build.
And I think it's a system that other projects should look at as well.
I glossed over the India event too.
Event sponsorship is just one kind of tentacle of the Kendu community.
I mean, yeah.
His name's Ishan.
He founded a company called kendu entertainment
and he's already already sponsoring events that i think three weeks ago he did like a a kendu um
it was like a glow pickleball tournament um the videos of that are pretty sweet um But yeah, I mean, the market's going to market. There's only so much liquidity.
And like, meanwhile, the community has just been building, like using their own networks,
their own passions and skills to just do what they can to push CanDo forward. We're just going to
build during this kind of market shop.
And then when our time comes,
we're going to have just an autonomous marketing force
that is everywhere.
That's kind of our whole ethos.
But yeah, thanks for having me again.
It looks like...
No, you're welcome i see that
candy main requested to speak um hello how you doing good how are you guys hi kojak
hey um yeah i am that person who found uh his relationship in the kendu community pretty wild stuff um but yeah as kojak said like um
we're really kind of separating from the the meme and really becoming more of a brand and social
movement at this point um you know i don't think any centralized authority could um could do what the Kendu community is doing. You know, we have got people stepping up.
One recently that Kojak, I didn't hear Kojak mention is Kendu Games.
And these guys are like, it's an indie gaming studio with ex-Bioware game developers and
AAA game developers who are building under the Kendu umbrella.
And all of that is done permissionlessly.
And they've agreed to kick back 10% of their profits to the Kendu treasury.
And a certain percentage to just buying and holding for their own personal treasury as well.
So that's like an extremely competent team who's building something in Kendu.
So yeah, it's not just sponsorships.
It's another community member is setting up an eSports team
or has already got an eSports team specializing in League of
Legends called Kendu eSports.
And this is what I want.
And this is what the Kendu community wants as well as to
build a global permissionless brand umbrella where you can build anything.
You can Kendu-fy anything and build underneath the Kendu umbrella
and immediately tap into this incredibly passionate community of users
and product testers and product buyers and customers if you want to.
So the opportunity for Kendu is massive because I really, I look around the
space and I don't want to be biased, but I just don't see communities activating on this scale.
I don't see projects creating that culture where it's possible. So I see a lot of, you know,
what's the developer doing next? What are our next plans? What marketing are we thinking of?
And this just is never asked in Kendo.
Everyone is working on their own different Kendo things
under the Kendo umbrella all of the time autonomously.
And as you can imagine, like we're in a market where,
you know, we frequently trend on Dextools
with like 20 or 30K volume.
You can imagine how powerful Kendo will be
when volume returns to the market
and all of these initiatives come to fruition.
It's really, really exciting to be a part of
and to help build.
And yeah, thanks so much.
I know you've been trying to get me on for a while
and I really appreciate it.
And I appreciate the host,
Shilda Beans.
Do I call you Shilda Beans or do you have a name?
No, I appreciate you coming on
and listening to your space
the other day,
it was the story about
you and your partner
farming the farmers
and I'll tell you what,
I haven't lost so much in my life.
That was hilarious.
That actually wasn't me.
That's another Kendu couple.
I think we've got three Kendu couples.
So my space is...
Oh my God, really?
Yeah, yeah, we've got three.
Love is in the air.
Maybe there's a Kendu matchmaking site,
like Kendu match down the line or something.
But yeah, that wasn't me.
Those are two legends from the
Gendu community
yeah, and that was a crazy
It's like the Gendu Lonely Hearts
column or something like that
the Gendu dating app
Honestly, why not? Gendu-fy everything
in my opinion
Keep it in the family
Appreciate you coming up, thank you very much in my opinion. Keep it in the family.
Appreciate you coming up.
Thank you very much.
Yeah, thanks for having us again.
Can I say something really, really quick just to help them out?
Yeah, of course you can.
I was going to pull you up next anyway.
So yeah, space is yours, mate.
All right.
So you guys know I support Kendu or whatever
and I shared your post up there in the box.
But do me a favor.
Go ahead and put all your guys' information on your pin post.
You know, all your contract addresses, your different links, and all that different stuff on your pin post.
So that way when someone's coming at to look at your profile, I can copy and paste your contract address and go over and look and see how you guys are doing.
Because if you're on a device, 98% of the devices out there, you can't copy a contract address that's up there by your profile name.
You just can't get the information off that way.
So, you know, most people scroll right by you, even if you can do, if they can't get the information and go look at it while they're looking.
And I scroll through most of the profile and I still couldn't find a contract address anywhere on any of the posts.
So I'm just keep the pin post with all your information.
Make sure it's always there.
The first thing that everybody can find.
And then after that, do whatever you want to do you know what i mean so sorry for the advice or whatever but i
always tell everybody that in the space if they don't have it no it's been said and mentioned
before as well and uh we were waiting on a community member to do a special video for
for this pin post so i think that's done now so yeah i'll update the pin post cool i just want
you guys to do good or whatever you know i mean I support everybody that's in the community. Cats of Crypto you know Brian with Paw Chain you guys
can do you know Troll King you guys with XPX down there you know and Rico you know a lot of people
in this space you know a lot of people come to my spaces you know on the daily or whatever I just
I kind of broke off got a little tired figured it's time for me to go my own direction with
some things or whatever, you know.
And then plus, you know, Soul Snakes finally started to come together and I need to focus on my token and my community or whatever, you know.
You know, it's kind of like the rebirth story, you know.
We kind of got stuck in with the old SHIB team, you know.
They got us into a token from the Crypto Breakfast Club, one of the OG SHIB.
I'm not going to throw his name out there because everybody probably knows who he is as soon as I do. But either way, I learned my lesson the hard way.
You know, I got into there following him around with the SHIB googly eyes or whatever and learned
my lesson another way. But, you know, he taught me a lot of good things too at the same time. So
now I'm actually able to go ahead and instead of using a launch pad, I can launch my own token,
my own way, be in control of my own supply and do everything the community really needs me to do the right way you know and be in control without any team trying
to tell us what to do having to worry about anybody else taking the money and running you
know what i mean so right now i'm just kind of putting things together i'm still finishing up
the website i got the nfts designs and all that stuff put together i just got to go ahead and
load them up there and uh go ahead and drop those uh we actually are going to have a pre-sale. Everybody
convinced me to have a pre-sale. So I'm going to try and be fair to everybody. I'll sell one
Solana worth at the pre-sale, which will give you 3 billion tokens, which we're setting that
right now for liquidity. That's actually going to be about two Solana worth of tokens. So it's
kind of like the little bonus to kind of give me some extra liquidity to work with or whatever
and put on the chart. But either way, man, this is more right now.
It's just a meme coin.
I'm just kind of like a week ahead of things because I got excited and everybody got excited
and got me going.
So I kind of have a roadmap, but I'm still kind of putting the flow together right now.
You know, so right now it's just a meme coin communities coming together.
And it's just, you know, community support and community right now, you know, and I know
it's going to go a big direction because a lot of the people in my community are mostly devs. So we're all here to support each
other and kind of build, you know what I mean? So it's one of the things that's looking really good.
I'm feeling really good about it, you know, and the direction that it's going to go is got long
term possibilities. You know, I mean, I know Larry and stuff like that from some spaces and
I'm not going to lie to you, man. I actually owe that dude some money from what Rob did to us,
you know what I mean? But it was one of those things it's like okay am I
gonna pay one person or am I gonna pay everybody at the same time so everybody's gonna get paid of
course right at the launch everybody gets their money or whatever so then he can be stopped being
mad at me too I know he's not mad at me but you know it's I'm one of those kind of people I don't
hide nothing or whatever I don't like try to dodgeball or anything I'm one of those kind of
people that deal with it when it comes up you know know what I mean? So he did an audit for me or whatever on the contract and Rob came in
and took the money and he did it without asking me if I was ready to do it. So I kind of got stuck
in a spot of O in him. And I'm just one of those kinds of guys that I'll pay him anyways, you know
what I mean? So either way, needless to say, I'm just happy, man. I'm just excited that this doesn't
go a good way. I'm not on a launch pad and then i got control so that way i can get over to pot chain and do like we originally planned on doing for our
original contract but we should be starting out between 30 and 50k for a market cap where we're
sitting at right now so i mean i just feel good with everything right now
thanks alpha wolf for pulling up i think i've never met anyone who actually speaks as quicker or as quicker than i actually do i'll be honest i'm really i'm nervous today for some
reason i don't know why this is like the first ama that i did and then i actually i was sitting
around waiting and i had to leave my house so my notes were at my house that i was going to go
through and when i get nervous man i kind of like all over the place so it's just yeah it's kind of a kind of pent-up excitement you were you were sat in your hands for so long and
i waiting to speak and i all come out so quick and uh yeah it'd be interesting to know not from
just from yourself but i can see the narrative of nfts actually creeping back into the space i'm seeing a lot more posts of people sending or receiving
nfts and i have experience in that myself and i just i just wanted to alpha wolf get your kind
of perception about nfts are going to come around this time because i think i think basey pretty
much had the monopoly on the nft market in the in the last kind of ballroom back in 21 i'm just wondering how you
kind of see him actually creeping back into the market and the do you think it's going to come
with more use case this time or do you think it's just going to be a your standard uh your standard
file i just wanted to get your kind of reaction on that i think as far as use case i think that
you know when it comes to the NFT, I did not.
Am I rugging?
Yeah, you're rugging brother.
Alpha Wolf, we can't hear you.
Oh, it's just going to be one of them spaces today and he's left I'm sure he'll rejoin again let's just say I'll accept him again
let's wait for him to connect
Alpha Wolf are you there brother? I apologise I apologize i gotta put my phone in somehow i don't know why i apologize so to get back to the nft side do you want me to still talk
or should i stop no no we never heard anything of what you had to say it just literally uh
i think i heard about one one syllable and then it was like you kind of disappeared so yeah it was just so much and i swear to god he like times
it strategically for like right when i'm gonna start talking and i feel comfortable finally to
kind of throw that little glitch in me to make me nervous again or whatever but you know when it
comes back down to like the nft side of things i i I was kind of like you, you know, until probably I
would say about four months ago, I was like, man, what the heck is an NFT? You know, I mean,
I'm gonna go out and spend a hundred dollars on something that I like, you know, and the real
only value is if I can go sell it somewhere on some platform and somebody else actually wants
it, you know what I mean? So it's more of like one of those things as a collector item to me,
you know, at, to begin with, but you know, there's a lot of different use case scenarios,
you know, like the NFTs that I'm going to use, you know, they're with. But, you know, there's a lot of different use case scenarios, you know, like the NFTs
that I'm going to use, you know, they're going to be for a tax NFT, the first NFT drop I
So, I mean, if you connect it to some kind of asset or some kind of like a token, like
a couple, you know, communities I know have where their tokens are connected as far as
assets go, there's real use case scenarios.
And I mean, if you can get into the retail side and actually use an NFT towards the retail side for purchasing, like, let's say you had a T-shirt, a T-shirt got, you know, non-fungible tokenized, however you want to put it.
I don't know the right wording to put it in.
But I mean, let's say the T-shirt was an NFT.
So you can come into Walmart, you buy this NFT, which is a T-shirt, you take it off the rack, throw it in your cart, pay for it with your wallet, walk out the store.
You know what I mean? Because I know Walmart's's i don't know if you guys got them over
in like the other countries i'm sure you probably do but i mean like over here in america they're
starting to do it now where you can prepay for your items before you actually even get the cash
register so you can like pay for it on your phone through the app and and buy it as you're walking
through the store and then just walk out the door you You don't even have to go to the cash register.
So if they can incorporate stuff like that, you know, with the NFT,
I see something like that on the retail side,
especially the retail side really needs something to kind of come in.
And I see that NFT being there because it has a physical aspect to it where you can actually see what you're purchasing.
So it's kind of like a receipt in kind of a way.
As far as like noobs coming into the space, they'll probably see it as more like a tangible item versus like a token
you know that they can't see and it's just a number in their wallet i just i see a lot of
different possibilities for it you know what i mean and plus with these 404s that they have now
i mean i know they have them on ethereum contracts but you know like a soul saver just dropped the
404 contract on Solana.
You know, he spent the last three years rewriting the programming on it and stuff like that.
So, you know, the NFT is actually connected to the token now. So both values are established both through the NFT and through the token.
So, I mean, it gives added value to both sides of it.
So, you know, when the NFT value is high, the token value is high because they kind
of coordinate the balance between each other from how I
understand it. I'm still kind of like learning a little bit of this
stuff so it's new to me so I could be wrong
with what I'm saying. So if I'm wrong
put me in check or whatever but
from the way I understand it
that's how it works. So if you
can connect this stuff together
and add extra value or you can actually
add some kind of like a
physical, I don't know something
that's tangible to the eye it becomes more demanding to the to a person you know what i
mean it's just it's that that look and feel of having something in your hands so it's just that's
kind of how i see an nft if you if you get what i'm saying yeah right i kind of agree with you
i think this time around there's gonna have to be something
attached to women and uh i know a lot of people they've got run big time buying uh certain nfts
at the top and uh people were scared the narrative wasn't going to come back around like i said we
myself and some of the members of the team and that we had we had a sellout drop on crypto com nft uh the crypto.com um platform for nfts for an nba
all-star and they they even that that kind of time and that but i think it was the back end of 21
early 22 i think it was probably back in the 21 and that and it was kind of attached to um
game tickets uh signed uh merchandise and uh it was a percentage of them was going to a charity.
And I think that's going to think for run the kind of meta this time.
I think the times of actually releasing NFTs and them just being pieces of art, because
I'll be quite honest with you on that, even though I'm super excited to be involved in
that, and we work with a few other people on NFTs, and that's true.
We're in talks with the team with world championship boxer and everything else for
creating their nft art it's never something that's like super excited me i'm like well
what's that going to do it's going to sit on my desktop it's going to it's going to it's going to
sit doing this it's going to be on my phone i can go and view it and i'm like well it's nothing
really tangible but i think if you allow uh features or utility attached to it and one of my ideas back in 21 was
to uh use it as part of a a learning book uh for children uh where they could actually play part as
of a story and uh it was something they were always trying to looking at releasing but then the the
nfts just died as we know overnight so it's just like boom that market's just disappeared and
I'm still a bit reluctant on nfts I think if they can have uh give you access to show events or
uh access to percentages off products or services I think they're going to have real a real use case and
uh real part of the market this time but I think it was just so cabal controlled last time by base
seeing the rest of the top kind of percent at 90 of the uh the nfts I think that's why people lost
interest in it that's why people were like well they're just basically these devs are rugging
people for these nfts and uh i'm not saying that
about everyone but that's how i feel about them so that's why i asked the question because it's
interesting seeing that narrative come back around and it kind of sparked something in me because i
was kind of excited so much for it last time and then so disappointed that it just completely died
to death so we'll see how that's come around but i appreciate you alpha wolf coming up i wish you
all the luck with your project buddy and it's great to have you on and so i'm sure everyone will be seeing a
bit of soul snake around in the space i forgot to say now the nfts because i started thinking
about what you were saying we were actually looking at a plush toy that we're going to
connect with the nft so it'll be like a like a one-on-one plush toy because it's got different
like scale spots on it so it'll have different color patterns and connect that to an NFT.
And then my friend who's the website designer is going to eventually make it so that way it's like a kid's collector's game where you can go purchase the NFT plush toy.
And then you can go on there and name your snake and go play the game like a kid.
So that way we can start getting like the younger generation into it like a learning thing too.
So I got a few ideas, man.
There's all kinds of things you can do with NFTss it's almost limitless i completely agree with you and that's
it we're more there now talking about what you're going i remember having a conversation with you
yesterday about uh the name of snake and i i absolutely love that and they uh um i've seen
some of the media of the project and it's super clean and I think you're going to have a great chance to actually bring something to Solana at the moment which is let's face it
getting a bit of reputation of a place where you go and release your rugs and everything else and
I think it'd be refreshing to see a project that'll actually launch and actually be doing
something and creating something so it's a it's a project
i'm interested to see being released uh like i said to you yesterday i'm not i hold solana but
i don't hold solana please for that reason but from knowing you within the space and that and
from what people have said i think it's got a real chance of actually uh creating something so i
appreciate you pulling on and we'll chat back end anyway and
like i said i'm always there to help you if you ever want any uh help with what you're doing so
um on that i'm going to move on because we are getting into what we are about an hour and a
quarter of space yeah so i'm i want to try and wrap it up with the next half an hour because
i'm taking time away from a partner and like we said earlier
on and that you need to spend time with your family i can see you got kenji up in the house
we've got og peanut we've got merv the cat we've got rj i don't know where to go to next so i'm
just going to um rj come on up because i know you're bringing some music artists up that have
joined i can see that we've got I Am Thanos in the space,
and I know we were DMing yesterday, and that's part of what you're doing.
You're creating a platform for music artists.
So just come and tell us a little bit about your project.
And if you want to sing again, you're more than welcome to,
or if you've got an artist that wants to come up and drop a beat or something like that,
then that'd be awesome.
So the space is yours, RJ.
Well, thank you so much the space is yours, RJ.
Well, thank you so much for having me today, Ollie. I super appreciate that.
Hello, everyone.
I am the founder of Harmony Hub.
It is a decentralized Web3 platform specifically designed
for music artists, but not limited to.
So what I'm trying to incorporate as well is also along with the music artists is, you
know, like audio books or let's say you write poetry, you make beats, you could attach your
beats to the NFTs that you want to launch.
I mean, there's so many, so many, so many different things that you can do with the
platform. nfts that you want to launch i mean there's so many so many so many different things that you can do with the platform but yes so um right now we're working on harmony hub that is going to be
the hub that holds melody mints chord collective and soundstream and um so our first launch is
going to be melody mints um we're hoping to get that up and going by summer is my goal.
My devs are working on the landing page right now.
We should have the website up and going.
I'm hoping by the end of this week, which would be amazing.
So that way I could kind of give you guys a website to refer to.
But yeah, super excited.
We do have Thanos in here.
He is one of the, he's an amazing music artist.
He just launched
um a music nft um actually a couple of them and so i don't know uh thanos do you want to speak on what you have going on oh sure will man salute to the whole room man gm to y'all um yeah just uh
just dropped two joints uh i actually got a few on a few blockchains, Sonar Muse, with the XRP.
I think originally a lot of us, Sound.xyz was a thing for a minute, but I feel like
it's kind of fading out a little bit.
A lot of people are moving over to other platforms and stuff like that.
But yeah, definitely I just did two drops when I launched YNFT, man.
One is the Mass and one is the Elden Rings.
I got some special utilities, put it that way, with the MASH joint, especially for producers
and things like that.
I know it's a lot of dope.
Web3 producers, man.
So the utility that I got with mine is kind of like you get vocal stems.
We do features and things like that with other artists as well.
And shout out my guy, man.
He couldn't be here today, Shell, man.
My man, Rocky 2 Grimey, man.
Actually, we part of a duo as well, man.
The Supervillains, man.
A lot of people know we've been making a little noise out here in Web3, man.
He couldn't be here today, but he definitely wanted me to plug in to check him out, man.
He got a new joint that he dropped as well that same week called Bounce.
Dope record, man. So we just out here, man, trying to make Web3 hip hop great again, you know what check him out man he got a new joint that he dropped as well that same week called bounce dope record man so we just out here man trying to make uh web3 hip-hop great again you
know what i'm saying yes and i love that you know i mean because our mission is to transform the
music industry you know by integrating blockchain um and i think it's it's going to be amazing because, you know, I'm building this specifically on SWE because it makes this process like super, it just makes it, the technology just doesn't exist anywhere else.
Let's just put it that way, guys.
I wish I had my gamer.
I wish I had my, I'm not really prepared for that.
I'm so sorry.
I had this whole speech set up and I've been waiting for an hour and now I'm like, I don't
know what I'm talking about.
I'm so sorry.
What I want to do, let me interject real quick while you get there.
While you get your mind together real quick, RJ, I just want to say something about.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I didn't hear you talking.
I'm sorry, I didn't hear you talking. I'm sorry.
Oh, is he hot mic'ing or something?
Oh yeah, he hot mic'ing. We're just listening in on his phone call right now
if you mute him it'll stop it yeah if you hit the mute button it'll turn
his mic off yeah they're probably talking to each other hey troll king troll king
Hey Troll King!
Troll King!
Troll King!
Hot mic, better!
We're coming back on 3
So you don't even hear the phone no more, man
Yeah, just hit the mute everyone
Oh, in 3 weeks
Yeah, there's a couple of ladies
He's just enjoying this
Yeah, chill, yeah, chill, man
Just having fun
I miss you, yeah
I miss you all the way to do better.
I felt a lot of small walks in the way to get to the kids.
Hold on, this is my life.
You can't touch the table, like that.
But you can't tell it.
It's okay if you can tell it.
You can't talk, remember?
He'll be talking for a while.
Yeah, I'd say you'd probably mute him out, man.
Because he probably don't want people listening to his conversation.
Probably not.
Not that any of us can understand it, but...
3x4, maybe.
Yeah, you can have a 12x4, but...
3x3, it's good.
You can have a little space between, so you can grow a little bit of a little bit.
Good! Can you do it?
Thank you very much.
TK, I don't know where you are brother, but I can't hear a word you're actually saying.
Yo, yo, what's up?
Yeah, you now was hot mic control.
It's like, he's got
some sort of, like, voice
manipulation going on, so it might be worth
him leaving, TK, and
rejoining or something, because I just didn't get
a single word you just said.
What? Was I speaking?
Yeah, yeah, nah, I think you was
hot micing when you was having that conversation just now.
We just heard your whole conversation. Yeah. conversation yeah oh well i'm really sorry about that
because it was in a different language
yeah but uh no all i was saying um for y'all was that you know you know i met rj a few months back
man dope lady man uh i know she's just like you know she's what you know web3 definitely needs Yeah, I met RJ a few months back, man. Dope lady, man.
I know she's just like, she's what Web3 definitely needs, man, as far as the music lovers and
people that's really trying to support that vision of that.
Because I feel like with Web3, man, since my journey in here has been a lot of, it's
a lot of artists supporting artists, which is a great thing, man.
But what comes with that comes like, I think it throws the balance off of
what things need to be, right?
I think us being music creators, we do want to deliver our music to people that love music
and not just our peers.
So when I met RJ, she definitely gave me that energy of just a genuine lover of the arts
and stuff like that.
And we need a lot of people like that representing and all aborting other people from Web 2 over
this way, man.
Because it could be a complicated thing when we're talking about crypto technology and
A lot of people, it could be discouraging.
It could make a person real evasive as far as being in the room.
So just shout out to RJ because I definitely think she has that lingo, that language to
be able to connect on both ends of it.
She know how to be in the room with y'all and talk that big blockchain talk with y'all,
but then she could come down and deal with the regulars, the normies they call them,
you know, the people that just don't know nothing about that.
She could also speak with them in a language that they could understand and bridging.
She really, one of them people that I feel like is bridging the gap between the two,
So shout out to RJ and Harmony Hubs, man.
You know, I'm definitely going to be one of the artists representing over there.
And if you know me, you know I don't play these games, man.
When, you know, I got friends, I fight for them to the hardest.
I probably fight for them harder than they going to fight for themselves.
So don't cross RJ, cause that's my peoples.
You hear me?
So that's all I'm telling y'all, man. But shout man shout out to shayla bean man love in the room let's
get it thank you so much thanos that gave me the best pep talk i was a little nervous guys i'm like
i had this whole speech you got this girl you got this man tell him i know all right yes so harmony
hub operates as an all-in-one platform with three hubs. Okay.
So each is designed to address adoption, utility, and engagement challenges while safeguarding
intellectual property. So Melanie Mintz, it's a user-friendly marketplace for artists who
mint and launch their music NFTs with fan benefits and copyright clarity. So some of those features are going to be artist
upload tracks, albums, or exclusive content as NFTs with a three-click minting process,
customizable royalty splits. We're also going to be doing global payment options with the options
of crypto or fiat. And then the tangible benefits will be limited edition
drops, example like silver or gold, backstage video access, and all this stuff will be verified
on chain. And also like as far as the copyrights go, the artists, they're going to have to verify their ownership via a smart contract. And then they will also be logged in on-chain for their transparency.
So that will kind of nip the copyright stuff in the butt.
They'll have to sign that smart contract and just acknowledge the fact that they own the rights to their music and whatnot.
But yeah, so we have so much stuff going on.
Right now, our main focus is Melody Mintz.
I am Thanos, AGS.
We are super excited to have him
as part of our team and as our community.
Really looking forward to getting him,
you know, the platform that he deserves
and so many other artists here in the web3 space
you know it's very challenging for a lot of people to get their to get their work out there also you
know like i said i mean there's there's other people besides just music right thanos i mean
there's people that make beats that they don't know where to put their beats like they don't
know let's say you write lyrics but they don't make beats so like these
people they could really utilize the system you know they could they could launch their own and
their their own um their own collection of their own beats of their own lyrics of their own um
uh songs i mean for for sale i mean there's just so many different things that gives the artist the option to really
really like take back control of their finances and thrive within the ecosystems and that's why
i'm trying to i'm trying to spread harmony across the blockchains because i think it's a huge need
there's so many artists and people here within this space that don't know where to take their
talent and i think this is going to be a great opportunity for them um and i would love to give them that platform that they that they really really deserve so yeah
i'm here spreading harmony guys indeed that's great rjos just a quick just a question for you
how do you feel that uh the blockchain technology is actually going to give more exposure to artists than
the actual current ways that they go to market and the kind of timeframe for the platform
that you're creating.
So I have a great example of this, Oli, to break down for you.
Okay, so like, if you're into tokenized real estate, right? So
like what happens when you remodel a house? How does that data reflect on like another chain?
So like, this is why I'm building on SWE. I'm just going to break it down for you. This is just a
super basic version of how it just helps break it down. So normally that would be an NFT that holds
a contract showing the initial data that was agreed upon.
So it gets complex having to verify account ownership, then burning the NFT to update the new data.
And this is just a remodel, right?
So if you want to remodel your house, you have to go through all that crap.
um so what about like a new paint job damages or rental properties um transactions could get
So what about like a new paint job, damages, or rental properties?
expensive and create bottlenecks by the masses especially if it's stored off chain so suey
makes this process modular the home could be an object which can own other objects like a remodel
add-on new paint job and so on uh same for like video games. Typically gamers would have
like an account that owns an NFT which would have to be burned to evolve, change,
etc. So Sui makes the gamer account an object which owns the game another
object which owns the assets in the game which are more objects. So this is what
makes Sui limitless in scalability.
Very technical analysis.
Were you reading off script?
I actually have notes.
I actually have notes.
I have notes that I have written down because these are all the things that I've learned. I'm reading out of my notepad right now because there's so many different things that Sui has to offer as far as NFTs.
And that's kind of like a simple breakdown that somebody gave me that it's easy for me to understand that way.
Because when you think of real estate, you think of like okay if i'm gonna go sell
a house i have to pay a real estate agent i have to pay the title company i have to you know pay
all of these other people to get the contract signed right so suey makes it just it just makes
it so much easier then that's and that's why i try to break it down on a more like personal level as
far as like you know if you want let's say you have it break it down as like a dynamic nft right
so like you have your home it's a smart contract you can list your home as an nft on chain sell it
through the smart contract it cuts out the middleman um it's just it's really limitless on
what you can do as far as technology and honestly guys it's really hard to explain i don't have all
the answers um but i know people that do so if you want to have like a sui rundown i can get as
many people on the sui blockchain to come over here and shill um all of the technology and how the nfts
work and i mean i'm friends with all of the protocols and and just everything on sui so like
i could we could do a whole breakdown if you like but i don't have all the answers but that's how i
understand it so hopefully you can understand it that way too. If not, I'm going to have to find someone else to help you break it down.
No, I didn't mean to put you on the spot.
That was more a tongue-in-cheek kind of thing here in the UK and just having a laugh.
And to be fair, anything with any project that you always relate it to something in IRL or a process of what you're actually creating.
And I really do like what you're doing,
being able to give a voice to artists
that might not find the traditional ways
of coming into the market to promote their material.
And I think it's got a lot of reach,
not just kind of music,
maybe reaches in like scripts for movies
or artwork or anything else.
I think it's a great way that you can create a platform for any type of artist,
whether it's your traditional form artist, your painting, your drawer,
or music artist, your performer in Broadway,
or your film producers or anything like that,
they can drop a script on there
and it's accessible straight away
for production houses to see.
So I love what you're creating in this
and I'm really excited for when this actually drops.
And I think the most important thing is for you
is to actually take your time and like anything in life
and do it the right way. Make sure it's ready.
Make sure it's tried and tested.
And it was nice seeing I Am Thamas coming up and actually supporting in what you're actually doing.
And I know we discussed in the back end that someone was going to do a song.
I thought you got something I could spend for you though man for
sure that would be awesome thanos go ahead because i was going to tell you i mean you
ollie requested that i sing run by leona lewis as a close out today and i'm going to check out
guys i'm nervous that's a hard one so if thanos wants to go ahead and sing today, that would be amazing.
Yeah, I got something for you for sure. But I just want to say, you know, like I said, being a newbie in Web3, man, I just seen I've seen it so much potential, man.
Like literally every day, man, I'm in rooms with I feel like millions and millions of whatever currency you want to call it.
Whatever currency you want to call it, millions of that in these rooms, man.
It's a lot of dope talent and it's in small circles I'm in, so I can imagine just the
whole Rep3 as a whole that be on these spaces, man.
And I think it's very important for us to have multiple options of ways of getting easily,
simple ways of being able to onboard and get our stuff minted and stuff like that, man.
So I'm always for the development of that part right there.
You gotta think, man, yeah, RJ's not gonna have all the answers, man,
because she's pioneering.
I think most pioneers don't know everything until it happens.
It organically happens sometimes, and things just seem to fall into place.
And I think that's what's gonna be the case with Sui
and what those guys got going on over there.
You know what I'm saying?
But yeah, man, that's all I really want to say as far as with that whole thing goes,
So y'all just make sure, you know, because this is the thing, right?
I feel like since post-pandemic, man, I've seen, I've been doing a lot of podcasts and
things of that nature.
And from Clubhouse to Twitter to Facebook to Chatter to Stereo, all these different audio platforms
that I've been on and hosted a lot of spaces.
And I've seen the common thing was a lot of people was tired of what's going on today
with radio propaganda.
When it comes to Web 2 and the Spotify's and Distro Kids and United Masters and these
things, these guys been ... And since the conception of the music industry, artists have been getting
robbed. You okay? They've been getting robbed and done over in every day. I don't think there's no
artist that really just, you know, the initial thing was a great deal. It was never a great deal.
Even if you got a million dollar advance, that's an advance. That's money you have to pay back,
and that's pennies to the dollar of what that corporation was getting. So, you know, with the
Web3 technology and how this thing is working out now, I think it's a real good way,
with these smart contracts, it just makes it real convenient
for the artists, the producers, and the people
that's running that marketplace where they're not really
taxing the artists as much.
And we able to really do better deals there.
So let's just make this thing a great thing
because we have all this potential.
We just gotta turn that in kinetic energy. You know what I'm saying? So that's all I want thing a great thing because we have all this potential. We just got to turn that in kinetic energy.
You know what I'm saying?
So that's all I want to say about that, man.
But I'm going to hit you up with this joint, man.
You know, it's my first drop off of Solana, man.
Launched my NFT, man.
Joint called The Mass, which I really feel is important because what I've noticed in
Web3 was a lot of other stuff going on too, right?
It's like the politics of these Web3 spaces.
Sometimes people will have to play a role, play a character to get where they need to be.
And I feel like sometimes if you're just being a genuine person, when you tell your truth,
it's going to gravitate and a lot of people, it's going to resonate with those that are like-minded people.
And I think those are the kind of people that you want to be in your tribe.
You want the people that, you know,
when they say find your tribe,
the only way you're gonna find your tribe is by being you.
Cause as soon as you put on that mask
and you're trying to perpetrate and be something else,
you gotta live with that.
Every time you turn that mic on,
every time you get in the room,
anytime you meet a person,
you're gonna have to play that character.
Now, I don't know how great y'all are
as being actors and actresses,
but eventually,
you know what I mean, the chinks in the arm is going to show, baby.
So let's just speak your truth.
When you speak your truth, it's going to gravitate.
And guess what?
The fakeness, the people that's not really a part of your plan, that does not really
see your vision, they're going to slowly wither away.
And that's okay.
You don't need the whole world behind you, man.
I set it in the record with my man Rocky.
We have a record called Fame that will be dropping soon, probably on Sui or something
like that.
But in that record I'm saying, I said like half the world is fake and there's another
10% of snakes and these other ones just hate.
You only got a little percentage of people.
Do you want the whole world behind you?
Because you know what kind of character and person you have to be, how low your integrity has to be to have the whole world behind you? Because you know what kind of character and person you have to be,
how low your integrity has to be to have the whole world accept you.
It's okay to not to have the whole world behind you, that's all.
But we're gonna get into this one second.
This is my favorite song.
I love this song.
This is my all time favorite song, The Mask.
I bought the NFT, i have the the song
i listen to it every day in my car it's hard
come on then let's hear it
that's definitely another utility for nfts is adding the musics to i mean if you could have a
whole nft collection like a music album drop, that'd be sweet.
Yeah, that's the goal.
Yeah, for sure.
I think that was the thing with me, man.
It was just finding, like I said, I just want a fair market.
Like, it's not about, I've been, you know, coming across a lot of, you know, a lot of people that's been here before me.
And they were saying, man, Thanos, you're not getting it. It ain't about the talent here.
It's about crypto. It's about the technology. I'm're not getting it. It ain't about the talent here. It's about crypto.
It's about the technology.
I'm like, it should be a little bit about the talent though.
You know what I'm saying?
So it shouldn't be that, oh,
cause you're a part of this community,
you will be successful, but somebody who's super talented
that doesn't, is not part of your community,
don't get no love.
That's kind of like the politics that came with payola
and all that, with the radios
and all that, right?
It's like, okay, this guy's not that great, but they got money, so they're going to be
successful versus somebody that starving artist that was dope, that could never get the time
of day because he didn't have the resources like that.
It's kind of crazy.
When we in a whole new climate right now where there's new technology, there's new information,
you are able to reach out to people and get that exposure you can get.
And if you don't have all the resources, guess what?
When you're in these spaces like this, this dope space right here, and I'm looking around,
I see Cloudy, Tricky, Soul Snake, you know, the list goes on and on.
When you look to your left and you look to your right, man, there's somebody in here
that got a piece of that puzzle that you need to get the whole bigger picture.
You hear me?
So RJ's that for me. She's got a piece of that puzzle that I need.
I need somebody that's gonna understand the vision,
that believes in it,
and is gonna represent me when I'm not there.
And that's what we all need.
We all need an RJ.
You know what I mean?
We all need a dope producer
that's gonna have the dope beats for my vocals,
or a beat maker that needs my vocals,
or a graphic artist
like Cloudy or Cech Benchero.
These are the people that's part of my team.
You know what I mean?
So I think it makes me look good even when I'm not here.
They're going to represent me in a way that maybe I can't represent myself at that time
or add to it.
You know what I mean?
So, man, just shout out to the room, man.
It's always a beautiful thing when I see people getting together for one common thing and we all want to be happy and
successful in life right so that's what it's about but I ain't gonna you know

Who I know?
Who I know?
Who I know?
Salute, salute, salute.
Produced by my man Vision, a dope Web 3 producer
that I met in the spaces.
You know what I'm saying?
So that record would not exist for,
have it not been for him.
You know what I'm saying? He gave me that canvas to for, have it not been for him. You know what I'm saying?
He gave me that canvas to put my paint on and collectively there you have art.
So you know, and for these guys that's dropping their joint, whether it's $2 or $2,000, I
believe it.
I believe that thing right there.
You think of the old Leonardo's and all those famous painters from back in the day.
They used to paint shit and they
had no value at the time when they was alive for it.
It took years later before some seen the vision.
And they believed that art, they believed in it, they valued it, and then it was like,
now it's like priceless art, right?
You know what I mean?
If only those guys could get those flowers when they was alive to see that, because
they probably knew that that's what it was worth.
But that's what I think this is with Web3, us as musicians and stuff like that, content
creators, beat makers, visual artists, all that.
I have a value.
Nobody can tell you how much that is, only you can.
And with Web3 technology, you had the power to now put that price there and let your tribe see the value in that.
You know what I mean? I appreciate your time.
I really appreciate you coming up, brother. Absolutely cracking track.
And what was nice to see from your conversation between yourself and was the the kind of level of respect and trust
and i think that's what you have to have in this space and just listening to the way rj
converses and kind of puts herself forward and what she's trying to create and that i've got a
lot of excitement about that and people like yourselves that uh to get into the kind of the forefront of
the music business that might find the traditional ways outdated and the
blockchain being the way to do it and stuff I mean as you obviously know
probably definitely more than me say that the music is a very cutthroat
business and that one day you can be number one,
the next day you're just off the charts and no pun intended.
But yeah, I love how you're trying to create a platform to allow artists
to be able to forefront their talents to the rest of the world
in a way that makes sense as we're ushering in the new financial system so
i really appreciate you coming up and actually dropping that track and i appreciate you coming
up rj and discussing what you're doing i'm definitely going to keep an eye on your project
and the people that are going to be involved in it because i think you've got real grasp of what's
required to make this to move forward, so I appreciate you
pulling up, I don't mean
to cut you short, I really don't, we've
got a lot of projects still to go through
and I'm already coming up soon
Totally fine, totally fine, Ollie
and if you have to drop me down, that's fine
as well, I appreciate you
I appreciate you
TK, put your hand down, I've got to go
to someone else next, unless you've got a valid question.
Come on, TK.
It's going to be super quick, man.
Give me one second.
I don't want to be rude.
I sound like a cock.
That's what she said.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I want to give everyone respect.
I just want to say for, you know, I am Thanos and RJ that I'm sorry for that pocket unmuting.
You know, I don't want to cut anyone off.
You know, it's disrespectful.
So, yeah, just, yeah, I love the track as well.
You guys are doing it good.
So, yeah, sorry about that.
And let the show go on.
Oh, yeah, no doubt, man.
Ain't no problem, man.
We all knew that you were hot micing.
You probably wasn't unbeknownst to you,
that you was, you know, having a whole conversation
with somebody else or else, man. So it happens, man. That's Twitter, Twittering, man, you know. Salute to you that you was, you know, having a whole conversation with somebody somewhere else, man.
So it happens, man.
That's Twitter, Twitter, man, you know?
Salute to you, man.
I appreciate it.
I blame Oli.
He could just mute the whole fucking stage, right?
Hey, we was telling him, too.
I'm just going to mute you, PK.
I ain't going to hold you, man.
Hey, yeah, he did.
He was like, nah, man, we're gonna let it ride, man.
I want to hear this, man. I want to hear what he's gonna say,
He didn't say that. He didn't say that.
Salute to y'all.
He was taking notes.
Right, then.
Alright, I had to take from that.
Right, so moving on.
I've got a couple of projects left.
are you still there? Are you you awake now i know you're usually
the last to show you actually came up oh here he is here's my brother how are you doing yeah i was
uh i was actually jamming out to that song man uh mad props out to uh rj and i am they knows man i
mean just hearing that he's a newbie artist coming on scene and just, just seeing how web three is just, you know,
with endless possibilities and opportunities for everybody of all industries.
And this is what it's all about. And, you know, to, I am Thanos, you're right,
man. You really,
you really got to come out here and web three and talk about what you guys are
building and people know and understand.
And the fact that the artists want to utilize, you know,
blockchain technology to allow
artists to maximize their potential profits without, you know, the music industry robbing
from them, kind of like what he was saying, and let the people decide on how much their artists,
their artistic music is worth, right? And that's really badass, because it's something that nobody
can control other than the community and the investors
so mash mad respect to you guys rj don't don't be shy i know it's kind of nervous when you speak in
in public spaces but i mean after a while you become numb to it it is what it is just just
pretend you're talking to somebody you know for the last 10 years and you're gonna be all right
up in here but uh yeah man with kenji dude um I won't keep it that long because I know you got
to do some stuff there, my friend. You know, right now, the latest thing with Kenji is just
us waiting to get back approval for our label submissions for our beverage and energy drink
for Kenji. We've been around for a year. You guys know what we do. We do international charities,
GameFi. We have our own bridge. And soon enough, I think we're about to get on on-chain.
We have several partnerships and collaborations.
A lot of them are here in the space.
Mad shout-out to OJ Peanut.
We got Prevail.
We got Inky.
We got so many.
Some Merv the Cat, my homie there.
Twiggy's not here.
He's another homie.
Man, this is almost everybody.
I mean, dude, the list goes on and on.
Pop Dog, all of them, man.
You know, also do my own space hosting with the Kid and Walt show and Coin Merge.
So, yeah, I'm just really excited about being up here and just showing my support, man.
And then yesterday, you know, one of my community members, they reached out to me and said, hey, did you see that Forbes has Kenji and their digital platform?
I'm like, stop your line, dude.
There's no way.
And yeah, believe it or not, I was quite shocked to see that.
And, you know, I was telling somebody,
you just never know who's listening in these spaces.
You don't know who's watching how hard you work and build.
And doing this for over a year now,
it's kind of like fruits of the labor, right?
And I think kind of to I.M. Dino's point, you got to just be you and you just got to be real with people.
And that's how I've always been since the beginning.
You can't come up in here and promise people they're going to become millionaires off your project because you know damn well you're just lying to them and yourself.
You got to do everything through hard work because in life, anything you obtain is because you go out there, you bust your ass and you work for it.
And this is how it should be around the world, regardless of what country you're born in.
This is life. You work for it. You make it, you obtain it, then enjoy it because you work for it.
Nobody can say it was handed to you. I'd rather work hard in life than somebody just giving me a million dollars and I didn't do a damn thing for it because it's that much sweeter.
And if we can inspire communities on all the projects to think the same way and to realize,
yeah, it's crypto and you can make some mad money. I'm not going to lie, but it's a lot much
better when you work for it. Even if you're a community member or just a regular investor
and you go out there and you raid and show about your favorite projects and your project is pumping and it's moving up and the community gets behind it, then all of you guys deserve to win because you actually went out there and you work for it.
You work for your bags.
And this is something that I think a lot of people need to realize.
And I know everybody got their jobs and they got their own personal situations going on.
But when you can,
it only takes a couple of seconds to make a tweet
or retweet or a little beautiful post
for whatever community you're in.
So if you want to see your project
really go up to the moon and all that stuff,
you guys down here below,
you got to work, assist your token founder,
your CTOs or your dev
in their objective and trying to make sure that all you
guys are successful with an awesome return of investment. And that's what it's about. But it's
also about community. It's about like-minded people and kind of to what Thanos was saying
earlier, you can't win the whole world, but those that really believe in what you're doing,
those are the ones you really want to see succeed and just be happy because you're always, always going to have envy.
You're always going to have jealousy. You're always going to have haters. It's just part of human life, unfortunately.
And but, you know, you just got to just block out that noise, focus on what you're building, stay positive and always be self-motivated.
And anything's possible, man. And that's it. Because if you always let people talk noise and smack and you're like, oh, my God, they talk bad about my project.
I guess I'm all supposed to go ahead and close it because they don't like me.
No, don't do that stupid shit.
You get in there and you just strap your, you know, you put your laces on your boots, your shoes, whatever, your heels or whatever.
And you just do it.
Work for it.
And that's it. Yeah, man. Yeah. Kenji, hey. Kenji, you hit it on the head. And I don't want to run up too much of the time and the space.
But just to add to what you're saying, you got to think like this.
You know, it's people in the world that don't like LeBron James or feel like he's trash.
It's some people that felt like, you know, rest in peace, Kobe was not the best.
Or Michael Jordan is not the best. It's people that does, there are plenty of unpopular opinions.
There's a lot of people that judge things that they don't even really know that, you
know, and the links of the shit, right?
So we just gotta have that in mind, man.
When you making art, when you're doing your art, whether it's the NFT itself, like the
visual aesthetics of that, or music, like everybody's not gonna like it, you know what
I'm saying?
But that's fine.
People gotta understand it's fine for people to not like you or like what
you're doing.
But it's gonna be people that do.
That's all you need to know.
Like, when you going out there as an artist, when you have that mindset to know to be just,
you know, content with self, and when you put it out there, guarantee you, no matter
how alienated you feel you are in this world, when you do it, trust me, it's
going to be somebody.
It might not be millions of people, but it might be a hundred people that's like, you
know what?
I've been there.
This resonates with me.
I love it.
I get exactly what you're trying to do.
And that's all you need, man.
I'm telling you, anytime I'm in a space and there's one person that like, yo, that record
right there, I love that record.
Man, I'm happy for the day that one person telling me that.
You know what I'm saying?
But then, you know, it'll be another person and another person, then you have it where
you found your tribe, you find people that see your vision.
And I think that's all, we as artists, that's all we really want at the end of the day is
to not feel like such an alien.
You know what I'm saying?
You do something and you're like, I don't know if they're gonna get it.
And then the second part of that is what I wanna say
as far as R.J., as far as her being nervous
and stuff like that, granted she's nervous,
she's not a big public speaker like that, like she says,
but she is, but like she says she's not right,
but that shows you how much passion and motivation
she got to break through that fear of that
and be up here and talk and represent herself
and her brand and what she got going on.
So that speaks magnitude.
There's a lot of people that can speak to a lot of people that's not speaking or not
going to speak or not going to hit that mic to come up on the stage and say, this is what
This is what I represent.
This is what I'm trying to push.
You know what I mean?
So salute to those shakers and movers, man, like that, man.
And I'm done.
Hey, bro. That's perfect. Perfectly said, man.
Just tell your homeboy Vision, man. I need to get with him, man.
I like him to do a little rap song for Kenji, man.
He was rapping pretty badass, man. I mean, he did good, dude.
He sounded really badass.
Bro, what you talking about? You talking about the record I played?
Yeah, was that you? No, no, No, no, that's me.
That's Vision Beat.
Yeah, that was Vision Produce.
That's a producer that I got the...
Rob Markman, Oh, okay.
Rob Markman, Yeah, me and him did a project last year.
And every now and then, he'll shoot me a bunch of beats.
I haven't written my music in years.
It's really...
I don't want to sound braggadocious about it, but that's why it's
art to me is because literally my whole process is I get a dope beat.
I'm from the 90s, man, the golden era of the 90s.
So that's what I try to embody in my music and just make it more modern day.
And literally I turn on, I throw it in my garage band, I hit record, I start rapping
until I mess up.
And a lot of times I don't mess up, I hit record, I start rapping until I mess up.
And a lot of times I don't mess up, I'm pretty decent at freestyling.
And I just say what I feel, man.
I don't sit here and think, oh, I got to, I don't try to pander.
I just say what's on my mind at that time.
I catch these moments and I feel like that's why it's art to me.
But no, I can't really tell you what's your favorite record, Thanos.
I couldn't give you one.
They're like all my babies. It's like, do you tell your oldest child, no, I can't really tell you what's your favorite record, Thanos. I couldn't give you one. They're like all my babies.
It's like, do you tell your oldest child, no, I love you more than my youngest, your
No, you don't, right?
We as fathers, we love all our kids equally, and no matter what, no matter how much time
apart, that's how I feel about my music, because it's something that I didn't have before,
and that next minute, it is what it is.
Whether somebody loves it or hate it, I still stand by it.
You know what I'm saying?
So, and I just think.
Yeah, man.
I feel you, man.
I'm already in your DMs, bro.
I'm trying to get you to feel good.
Oh, we over there, man.
You definitely going to work.
Yeah, bro.
Yeah, man.
I love it.
I mean, you got some artistic talent and it's coming from, you're spinning from the heart.
That's what you're saying. You don't just like, well, let me let me put some words together in paragraph and make a song.
You like, let me see what it's about. And I'm going to just spit it out from the heart.
And that's what rap's about for people who are into urban beats.
But yeah, man, awesome work. Awesome song, dude. I really loved it.
And I just like the fact that we're starting to see artists and people who are into art coming to the space.
Man, we need a little bit of everything you know what i'm saying if you eat the same food every
day you get bored of eating the same shit but when you have choices yeah man
man what a good space what a good space ollie showing the beans on a good space, Ollie. Showing the beans on a good Friday.
Oh, I tell you what, this is what I love about the space. You never know what's going to happen.
I mean, I love the energy of Kenji.
I mean, he is an absolutely great guy, not just because he helps animals,
but the energy he brings to the space.
And then when you start hearing people speaking,
like Kenji and I and Thanos have just been doing and stuff.
And that's what this space is about.
It's about bringing people together.
And that's what it'll always be about.
It's the connections.
And I'm sure Kenji might have something with I am Thanos once or vice versa.
And you never know there's a collaborationship or a partnership
down the line and that and i always love what you're doing kenji you're a you're a top guy and
you actually turned up quite early to the space today i was quite shocked but i did do it actually
a bit earlier because he's usually the last one on to work he's usually the last one to speak but
i just love listening to him because i love his energy and i'll always support people like that i'll always support projects like that and i just love what
he's creating and uh we're a couple hours in now and i think we will move on to uh the the last
project and i've got some kind of irl and spending some time with with my partner and that i've been
in a dark room shaking for the last two hours.
So I'm going to bring up, I'm going to bring up Merv.
How you doing, brother? How's Chad and the family?
Meow. Meow, meow, meow. How's it going, guy?
I love that. I literally, right when you popped in the space, I was like, meow.
I was singing that meow, meow, meow, meow.
Meow, meow, meow, meow.
All right.
I don't have chords right now.
I can't sing.
There was so much good stuff said.
And I just wanted to, like, cut kenji off and be like preach brother preach
um because it it just uh it hits you know we we had a space the other day with twiggy and
um i kind of i kind of reiterated some of the same stuff and you know uh just while
chilling the beans you know i like to be very transparent i think you guys know me by now i
kind of wear everything on my sleeves.
It's been a rough couple of weeks in my real life.
And sometimes it's really important to step back, zoom out and be like, you got to take
care of you before you can do anything else.
The project, the money, all this shit does not matter if you aren't right, if things
aren't right with you and your family and what's going on in your life. And I had to like pull out because I was literally, my head was in this cat. I've been
in this cat for 149 days nonstop to the point where like my girl's like, hey, I'm here. Hello.
Like I'm going to leave, you know, that kind of vibe, you know? So I had to, I had to take a,
take a breather but you know
obviously i'm still showing up but it's like delegating your time also making sure like the
community gets that it doesn't it's not one man shell right it takes a village and that we all
work together to make things happen so i've been i've been cooking i've been on meetings i've been
building stuff in the background i'm not focused on the background. I'm not focused on the market cap. I'm not focused on the like, what is what what can I do right now?
I'm focused on what I'm going to do and what's going to happen. So I'm just like,
I'm building so much on this cat. And I've been I've literally put like my heart, my soul,
my energy in this, because where we're headed, it's it's going to be, you know,
Merv's going to get a full send that that's my hope.
And Kenji was saying like, you can't promise the moon,
but we can definitely work for it. And that's,
that's what we've been working for. And that's,
that's just what I've been grinding on for, for a long time now.
And like the pieces are coming together, but you know, uh,
things take time. And, um, in the meantime, it's, it's really like,
while that's happening, the community needs to show up and everyone needs to show up and be like, hey, we love this cat.
This is what's going on, you know.
And that's, you know, that's what I've I've just been working on and grinding.
And I'm kind of rambling here.
But I think it's like one of the things I said the other day was, you know, health is wealth and your network is your net worth.
And those things got to come first, right? I was kind of wrapping in my head when
Thanos was playing his song. I was kind of freestyling. But it's so important to prioritize
those things because then abundance comes. If you live in the mindset of abundance,
those things will come to you. And that is kind of what we've been putting together
for Merv. And I'm in that mindset. So even if someone sells or whatever, I used to have a
concern with every single person that pulled out. It's like, all right, you don't want to be in?
Our time is coming. I'm not worried about where we're at right now, that it's down a percent or
up a percent or whatever. What I'm really worried about is making sure Chad's happy, that he's okay with where
we're at, you know, and by the way, Chad is doing great.
He was on a reunion with his family.
So he's been a little out there right now, but we're going to try to do a space with
him and just, you know, Merv is a fun talking cat.
This meme coins are meant to be entertainment and fun.
And that is what we bring to the table is fun memes, fun content for you guys to enjoy
and to participate in the roller coaster ride of a chart going up and down and all the way
back up again.
And that is the game we play.
So, you know, you got me on a little bit of a ramble, but that's where we're at today.
And I just want to give a shout out to all the homies and all the people that have had my back
and have also helped me out when I've had, you know, Kenji and I let people know what's going on.
You know, I've had my head in the sand just dealing with real life stuff.
And, you know, it's really good to have that support while you've got to take care of
yourself. So just to saying, you know,
lean on people because I think these communities were here to support each
other and we're here to lean on each other and we're, you know, um,
someone could just cue that song, lean on me, you know, uh,
when you're not strong And I'll be your friend
I'll help you
Everybody now
Can I go on?
I don't know
Just call on me brother
When you need a hand
We all need Somebody on me, brother, when you need a hand. We got a clap. We don't need somebody
to lean on.
All right. We're all out of tune,
but I love it.
I love it. Let's go.
We just need that
AI voice manipulator
to just bring it into
course. I ain't got the wrinkles.
Y'all going to be the wrinkles y'all gonna be
good y'all gonna be good yeah i'm just waking up um i can't sing though i just uh yeah i gotta
warm up the vocal chorus you know what i'm saying um but yeah that's my preach that's what i got
guys it's good to see you all much love if i could just add If I could just add one thing to all the projects in here,
I'm going to be doing a ton of AMAs and spaces with Thanos and AGS
and different music artists.
If you guys want to donate $25 worth of tokens or whatever towards the cause,
I have a wallet specifically for Harmony Hub.
I'm just saying like and and i can
make a post and we can i can like you know give your project um you know attention as well um if
you want to sponsor some of these events i'm just throwing it out there like if you you know if you
if you want extra attention for your project if you want to be part of the music community, you can donate.
I have a various amount of different tokens and NFTs that I've been collecting for the last six
months for these specific spaces, but I'm just telling other projects, if you would like to do
that, I would, you know, like Toilet Dust just donated 25, like 1 million Toilet Dust tokens,
you know like toilet dust just donated 25 like 1 million toilet dust tokens um you know for
for the pigeons in new york um and the pharmacy phantoms um you know and then i donated a duny's
nft towards that as well to the second place winners so you know i'm i'm really trying to
you know just help everybody in in in web3 so if your project needs extra attention and you want to donate,
just reach out and I would love to collab with you guys.
I'm all for it.
Get to the Bagua.
Get to the Bagagua.
I can't pronounce that way. way well and I hate even saying that
but you know I mean I'm trying to help everybody
and you know this it does take a village
so I'm just trying to
to you know
like Merv you know you want to do a space
with Harmony and me like
come on in dude we'll freaking sing
we'll have some fun you know i mean
it's it's supposed to be fun and and i love your energy i love the energy in this space and just
all the projects in general in here are amazing and i would love to help you so um yeah anyways
that's all well i'm down uh dm me let's schedule. Let's figure it out. I'm always for that. I'm always for collabing and connecting and also just making this a fun time. I think that's the thing that gets lost in this is having fun because there's a point where you like you don't need to be on a space 24 seven every single day, but you can have some fun, you know, and make every space a fun
time. Not just like, here's my cat. This is what it's all about. We're going to the moon. Meow,
meow, meow. Like I want to come in here and have a good time. Otherwise, like, you know,
you've seen coin sent and no one's going on spaces. Like, it's not about that. It's about
connecting with each other, you know, and having, and just meeting good people, like-minded people
and building the community. So yeah, RJ, let's go.
I'm down. Hit me up.
Awesome. Merv, thank you.
I think that's a perfect time to work kind of wrap up the space and that.
And just what Merv was saying that I think these spaces need to be fun.
Projects need to come together and support each other.
Relationships are generated from these spaces need to be fun projects need to come together and support each other relationships are generated from these spaces collaborations are generated from these spaces and I think that's the most important thing a lot of time people forget sometimes projects have the
tribal mindset that they they don't want to invite anyone in because they're scared of losing the
liquidity in their own project and I think that's why spaces like this
are important and that's why i just do it out the the goodness of my soul i take a couple of hours
once a week i do an episode a week and that'd be just because i want to give back to what
cryptocurrency actually given to me uh the amazing team that i'm involved with that of xpx and rico
money bags and david and marlon and that and the connections they actually
make every single day through them and i think that's the most important thing that
we all do forget that it is going to be fun and at some point cryptocurrency will be a financial
institution of the world and maybe we won't be having these fun spaces anymore and i think we'll all look back at them and imagine teaching this in a class and you go into a space
and you've got you've got singing rappers you've got cats you've got dogs you've got you've got
everything in between you've got people talking about this that another and I'll be like geez
these guys were crazy but this all happened with the dot-com moment back in the early year
kind of late 99 I think it was early 2000s when the dot-com moment back in the early year kind of late 99 i think it was early 2000s when the
the dot-com moment happened and um we'll be looking back at this in 20 years time heaven
forbid that was all still around in good health and i wish that to all of you um i think we'll
be looking back and laughing and we'll be replaying these space and we'll go oh my god we got rj coming
up and singing and we got we got guys talking about cat the talking cat we've got these
people talking about dogs and all the rest of that and i think well they'll find it hilarious but it
will be the new financial institution and uh meme tokens are certainly the costume which will bring
people into that moment and um projects like xpx offering their uh off-ramping solutions uh multiple
blockchains with their Visa cards,
virtual and physical.
Sorry, I've just got to put my little shilling.
I've had so much fun during this space,
just listening to everyone.
I forgot to talk about XPX,
but that's what it's all about.
I'm not going to hard shill.
I mean, a lot of you already know about XPX anyway,
and if not, just follow us.
And we're always there for communities you can always
get your own personalized community xpx card you just add your liquidity and some alpha coming up
for everyone on here because we've got such an amazing team behind us and that we've been able
to build something we've we've actually bought an amazing.com which is it's not just going to be a
merchandise store for xpx it's going to be there for everyone um and we're going to be releasing
that so people will be able to pull up and they'll be able to drop their own uh merchandise for their
projects on it as well to sell to their communities and that's going to be a massive thing for XPX because we're non-tribal.
We like to be there for everyone.
And same as the likes of FedToken with the smart DeFi platform.
Same as what RJ's doing with the music platform, getting the artists coming out there.
Same as what PoorChain's doing there with their swap toponomics and being able to uh trade on every platform and this is where the
relationships are created this is where the relationships are made and it's been an amazing
space it really has i do like to say an apology to uh convo odin and prevail uh we're kind of
running out of space i've got got some time i have to spend with my partner and uh because she she
allows me this time in my life that uh to build
for our dot-com moment and um build for what we're doing with xpx but certainly drop me a message and
i'll definitely have you come up and speak on our uh on the next space it'll be either uh friday
next week no sorry it might probably won't be friday because it's my birthday it'll probably
be saturday next week and we can all get together and I'll certainly have you guys
up talking about your project so uh love to you all a shout out to my brother from another me
