Full Transcription
Do you want to start the recording now or do you want to wait until everyone loads in?
What's up guys?
Hope you guys can hear me.
If you guys can hear me, give me a wave or a thumbs up or something.
All right, beautiful, beautiful.
Just give it a bit.
Wait for everybody to load up.
What's going on everyone?
Welcome guys, welcome guys.
We're going to give it about five or ten minutes.
Just have everybody load up and then we'll start waiting for the Takashi Warriors guys to jump on as well.
The founder there.
So, hope everybody's doing great.
Sorry guys for making this one a little bit late.
We just wanted to try to change up the time, see, you know, and play around with stuff.
See if we get more listeners and more people joining in.
Guys, keep in mind, we've got to play around with Twitter a little bit, get used to Twitter
space.
We'll make this more engaging next time as well.
Guys, we'll give it another five more minutes and then we'll start at least our AMA and get that going.
Guys, anybody have any questions or anything to chit chat about for the next four minutes
before we start?
All right.
I just want to jump up here.
I'm out and about with the wife, but yeah, I'm here listening.
Cool, brother.
No worries.
I'm out and about with the wife, but yeah, I'm here listening.
I'm here listening.
I'm here listening.
Not bad. Just wanted to come in and say hi.
Good to see you. Good to see you.
Yeah, you too, man.
Just left VC, so I popped in.
Just wanted to take a listen, you know?
All good, bro. All good.
Thanks for joining us.
Oh, yeah, man.
I'm all for it.
Thank you. Thank you.
We're going to give it two more minutes, guys, and then we will start.
Start our AMA, at least.
And then we'll move on, hopefully.
There we go.
There we go.
The star of the hour.
Let's fucking go.
If you want to give us a request, bro, and we'll let you jump on up as well.
All right.
There we go.
That worked.
All right.
Hey, buddy.
Sorry, mate.
Sorry, I was a bit late.
I'm just hanging up some gutters and stuff on my pergola and lost track of the time.
No worries.
No worries, bro.
If we were going to do a quick little rundown recap of our AMA, and then we were going to
bring you up anyways and have a discussion with you in regards to what you're doing.
Perfect, mate.
With Takashi.
Go for it.
I look forward to hearing about the AMA.
Beautiful, bro.
Beautiful.
Thanks for joining us.
Appreciate it.
All right, guys.
Let's start this off.
As you guys all know, my name is Pete.
Lowe is here with us as well.
We've got Flan here.
We've got everybody else as well.
Takashi's in the house.
So this is huge.
Guys, we just want to do a quick rundown of a couple of things that we've done this week
in regards to just updating you guys on everything going on.
We did talk to the artists in regards to the upgrades that we wanted to do, the things that
were suggested.
At the same time, they're actually in our Discord, guys.
So they're actually watching our suggestions and everything that we want changed as well.
So they're actually on point.
Before I could even reach out to them, they reached out to us and said, hey, you know what?
We already know this and we're going to be working on this.
And we were like, okay, wow.
Okay.
That's good to know.
So art-wise, we should be getting hopefully our final revision this week or this weekend
or beginning of next weekend.
So we should get that sneak peek dropped as well.
So once that is good to go with everybody and we're cool to move on, we'll start working
on traits.
If you guys have any traits you guys have in mind that you guys would like, feel free to
drop it in suggestions.
Also, guys, there's a fan art section.
If you guys want to make stickers, stuff like that that we want to add to the new collection
or, you know, add to the server in general, get rid of all the Halo stickers, banners that
we can use for Twitter, stuff like that.
If you guys want to help out, feel free, drop it in there.
Sorry.
What else were we going to talk about here?
I'm just going to do a quick recap on what we were doing or what we've done.
Sorry.
Where is that?
Sorry, guys.
All right.
I think later on, CryptoFlan is also going to be dropping some sneak peeks on what he's
working on as well in the dev announcement section.
So keep an eye on that.
As we get closer to, you know, finishing up the art, we want to make sure, you know, all
our, well, not all our utility, but most of our utility is ready for launch.
So you guys can, you know, at least have some fun as we work on the remaining.
Now, the fun part.
So we're going to bring Takashi up here.
Let's go, yo.
And we're going to ask him some questions about his project.
He's going to give us some answers.
He's going to give us a little summary on what he's doing there with Takashi.
So whenever you're ready, brother, the microphone's yours.
Yeah, thanks, buddy.
Thanks for having me.
Always happy to sort of engage and get on the Twitter space or a VC whenever I can.
And pretty pumped to sort of announce what we're going to do together and moving forward.
And I think finding good, genuine people and good, genuine spaces out here and working
closely with them is right up my alley.
And especially being a D-Rug, mate, like Takashi is as a D-Rug.
And it really hits home.
And just grateful to have good people like yourself and Lo and Flynn and everyone like
that in Web3.
It's a great honor to be friends and soon partnering with you.
A hundred percent, bro.
It's a pleasure.
It's a pleasure.
Definitely is a pleasure.
You know, just, you know, we always want to stick with the right people in the space.
We want to push out the wrong people.
So, yeah, man, definitely, definitely moving forward.
We're going to have some fun.
We're going to do some big things.
And this is just the beginning.
Yeah, absolutely, mate.
We've obviously sort of together spoken about a lot of things recently.
And it's just great that, you know, these two spaces with sort of different niches and
different aspects of the way they go about it sort of working together will work really
well together.
And it's just going to be great.
Like with some of the stuff that I've seen and heard that you guys are planning on doing
with some of the tools and stuff like that, you know, that stuff that we're not doing.
And I know that will be a great benefit to myself and your holders and my holders at Takashi
sort of long term as well.
And things that will help people make money safely as well.
And that's, at the end of the day, that's what we're here for.
100%, 100%, bro.
And that also ties into, you know, what we're all doing is trying to make a safe space for
everybody to trade in, for everybody to have, you know, build a solid community in.
So, definitely looking forward to working with you as well, bro.
Yeah, well, it took me a little while in Web3 to find my niche.
And I'd sort of found my niche as a bit of an alpha caller to begin with, mainly in sole
projects, a few ETH projects that was looking at long-term sustainability with projects with
IRL revenues and returns that you could effectively gain utility from passive incomes and revenue
in that sense that you actually made money for holding your NFT.
And that's sort of what we've worked and based our sort of space at Takashi around.
Like I've sort of said to people before, like I'm not claiming to, we're going to be a D-Gods
or ever be at that value.
I've even sort of spoken about the D-Gods value as opposed to, you know, something like an
Alpha Faro's value who we're sort of partnering with as well.
That, you know, places like us, we give you some revenue, we give you some utility that
you will gain money back on what you've invested so that at some point in time, you're going
to be in the project still earning for free, so to speak, which I think is a big thing.
You know, there's a lot of projects out there on ETH and SOL that are pushing, you know,
huge, huge amounts of money in floor price and trading.
And, you know, the utility you're gaining from it is a picture to put on your Twitter
or your Discord.
So, you know, we're definitely not that, even though our art and the trade store and
things that we've got coming and dropping, it sounds like Monday is, you know, it's going
to be pretty exceptional as well that you will gain that sort of PFP stuff.
But, yeah, a way that you can actually make money, have a good community and hit both sides
of what's good in Web3 with obviously a good community and making money.
100%.
100%.
So, excuse me, your trade store is going to be live on Monday.
Yeah, we were hoping for it for this weekend, but unfortunately, linking up with the dev for,
you know, I had a four-hour VC yesterday going through a lot of stuff.
I wasn't able to sort of have time during the week to get that done.
So, we sort of finalized everything yesterday and that should be dropping Monday at the latest
Tuesday.
And I'll be sort of onboarding all the trades once that drops and we're going to have some
fun with our PFPs.
So, to begin with, we've got, I think it's mouth, nose, eyes, background and maybe hair.
I think we've got about four or five traits to start with in this first batch.
You'll be able to use all characters.
So, there's going to be sort of 10 sets of hair, 10 sets of eyes, you know, five or six backgrounds.
There's going to be a lot of different things that you can start to muck around with and
build out your PFP as you see fit.
So, that at some point in time, we're sort of hoping that the worst result from it would
be, you know, a one in three type PFP that you would have and potentially with the characters
we're going to have that you'll be able to sort of build your own one of ones that other
people, no one else in the collection will have.
That's pretty cool.
That's pretty cool.
Now, I've never done the whole trade swap thing.
I've always kept my NFTs in the OG condition.
But in this case, where your collection is just a body, which is actually pretty cool,
man.
That's completely different.
I've never had something like that where you can fully customize your PFP.
Yeah, well, like we felt that that was like a good way to go about it.
And we've had quite a lot of people that are pretty keen just to have a cool background
and just keep the mannequin type body as it is, as they're pretty happy with the way
it looks.
But look, I've been in a lot of projects and like yourself, I haven't done a lot of the
trade source stuff.
My Jelly Rascal Thor is really the first one I've done.
And, you know, I didn't really have to sort of trade swap or do anything with it.
I was just a huge fan and I'm covered in sort of cartoon tattoos and felt that it suited
So it was my sort of long-term hold.
So that's what I sort of did and went down that path.
But we're doing it this way.
So, you know, when you get a one-on-one in the collection, you love it because it's a
one-on-one, but you might not necessarily absolutely love it.
Like it might not be the one you would like.
There'd be some changes that you would make as opposed to some other one-on-ones or other
things in the collection.
So what we're allowing you to do is effectively say, okay, well, Goku is my favorite character.
You might not get the light tan skin for Goku, but you might have the pink for Marjan Buu
and you can build out a Marjan Buu Goku together and still have something that you like.
And I actually think the mixed traits look better than the full-blown characters, you know,
like they've sort of been produced art-wise.
Definitely, definitely.
Well, when I, you know, started doing my own little DYOR on your project and when I seen
it was like a Dragon Ball Z theme, I was all in because I'm a Dragon Ball Z fan.
So, you know, that was like, all right, I get to actually make my own Dragon Ball Z PFP.
That's beautiful.
Yeah.
And the way we've been able to sort of do it is it's all hand-drawn art.
The art was videoed the whole way through, all the different aspects of it, building out
all the characters.
And yes, they're obviously similar, but they're not the same.
And by doing it this way with the trade store, there's not going to be a hell of a lot of
characters that are 100% them that would have been from a show and things like that.
But at this stage, we've got Dragon Ball Z, One Piece, Naruto.
We've got quite a few different characters so far and we're going to sort of build that out
as we go along.
But yeah, we wanted it to be nostalgic and fun and being that, you know, our space is
effectively a longer-term hold for some passive income and investment in a safe place, I wanted
to have something that was going to be fun, that would keep people interested, happy and
interactive moving forward throughout the project, why we hold long-term to all make money.
So, this seemed the best way about it and I absolutely love the way it's turned out.
I was talking and I had it on mute for a second.
I was like, wait a second, can I not be heard?
But no, I was saying, the art's definitely pretty cool.
I know other projects are doing the whole trade swap and the whole trade store idea, but
I haven't seen anybody yet do just a mannequin figure where you can just go in full force
and, you know, change everything and make it a one-of-one PFP for yourself, let's just
say, right?
Yep.
Yeah.
And by doing it, the thing that we looked at, we wanted to have, you know, I hold some
BVD cats and things like that and I'd seen their great stores and things and we sort of
wanted to, you know, same with Cyberfrogs, but we wanted to have that side of things with
the trade store with like a Call of Duty Fortnite type vibe where you can actually sort of purchase
items and build out your character the way you want.
So we're planning on having seasons and different things where, you know, it might be an Indiana
Jones outfit one-of-ones that, you know, you can put on any character.
It might be a Star Wars, you know, month or things like that where you can really start
to have some fun with the nostalgic side of things and we can really sort of, yeah, like
I said, we can sort of gamify it.
It's very interactive and it will be really fun to do.
And as those things start to roll in, I truly believe nearly everyone will have some form
of one-on-one at that point and we're even going to have some poker wins, some contests
and stuff where the winners will actually get to build their own one-on-one piece for their
item and work with the artists over at Fractured Apes.
Now that's cool.
That's cool.
Having a specific theme, that is definitely cool.
So just let me know when Superman month comes because I'm a Superman fan.
So I'll definitely be going for that.
Yeah, we'll definitely, I'll definitely make sure that someone else purchases it before
you get there, mate.
Oh, shit.
Another question I had for you.
I know you guys have the Founders Pass.
Could you give me a little bit of info on that and how that works?
Yeah, so obviously the Founders Pass is...
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Before we jump onto the Founders Passes, is there going to be a fee for the trade swap?
There's going to be a fee of 0.08 sold at this stage.
We were hoping to make it free to begin with, but with the plans, there's going to be a small
fee.
So per NFT, if you were to put all four or five traits on, you're looking at sort of
$8 to $10 at this stage to put them on.
And then as things come about, they're going to be tradable items.
So you can take items off, effectively stash them in your backpack, you know, in your wallet.
You can reuse items.
You can sell them.
We're not burning that item onto the NFT and it's held there forever.
And when you remove it, it's gone.
There's going to be tradable items.
So unfortunately, we couldn't quite make it zero as there were some fees with the trade
store itself.
And being that obviously in the bear market, we're making decent gains with our investments.
We felt that if we were fronting the costs on the art, all the trade store and everything,
it sort of took away from those investments and the income that we're going to have for that
passive stream down the track.
So that's good.
I'm pretty sure some people were wondering, that's the only reason I asked, just in case.
Oh, that was a good question, actually.
That was a good question.
I totally forgot to ask that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And through looking at the market and stuff, most places, yeah, there are some spaces at
the moment on sole that are charging, you know, sort of 0.4 sole and things like that
for the onboarding of trades and at the 0.05 for us that covers sort of rental costs, fees
and a few things.
That's sort of 0.05 to 0.08.
We're at the lower end of the market as we'll always try to make it cost effective.
And depending on what the fees are, as sole goes up towards the back end of the year
and into next year, following the Bitcoin halving, we can always manipulate that to suit a price
point so that people aren't out too much money to swap and trade.
Because at the end of the day, we want it to be cost effective, cheap and fun more so.
Like we're not out here trying to make money on it.
Got it.
Got it.
No, that's pretty fair for it.
That's a pretty fair price.
That's definitely a pretty fair price.
So can't complain there.
Good to hear.
Definitely can't complain.
I wanted my whole custom set, right?
So I'm cool with that.
Yeah.
And that's the thing, you know, like it's this being that it doesn't change too much where
you are in the space as to what you've done with your PFP.
If you keep it as a base level mannequin with no trades, no background, no anything, it doesn't
take away from your staking that will be coming out hopefully by next weekend.
It doesn't change any of that.
So there's no forcing of people to spend any money and trade swap and build.
It's all purely up to you, up to you, how many you want to do and what you want to do
with it.
100%.
Lo, did you have any more questions, bro?
No, I think we can go on to the Founders Pass.
All right.
So, yeah.
Let's talk a little bit more on the Founders Pass as well.
What are you guys doing with that?
How does that work?
Yeah, so the Founders Pass was an idea that come from Moorbears and CryptoFlam with the
D-Rug as a way that it allows spaces to mint them out and have some money come back into
the space after a D-Rug.
And our space lost about 1,000 sold when they rugged.
So it was nice to, I think we got about 250, 300 sold, somewhere around there at the end
of the mint.
And those Founders Passes are a percentage share in the business.
So we have 500 Holders Passes and each of them is 0.20% share of the business.
At this stage, the business is holding around 1,300 sold worth of NFTs and other items.
So that every Founders Pass owns a percentage of that at this stage and that we're all in
it together.
So there's no team founder that I don't take any money.
Everything that comes in is purely for us all and we all get a share of it.
That's pretty cool.
That's pretty cool.
And anybody can purchase these Founders Passes as well, right?
That's right.
Yeah.
So we've got the collection on Magic Eden so that you can get your return for what
your share would be worth on the sort of secondary market.
I've also got a few things written up.
So long term, if all things go to plan that when we hit some bull runs and our investments
have done well, depending on what the shares sort of get to, if they're not easily sold
on secondary, there will be ways to liquidate and burn your passes.
To regain your share if you wish to leave down the track.
So at this stage, they're a manageable price and they're easily sort of bought, sold and
traded on the secondary.
So we haven't had to stress too much about any sort of liquidating.
But it's definitely something that you've got to look at it as a business and as a holdings.
Some people have definitely sold too cheap already, even though I've told them plenty
of times.
But yeah, you do have to look at what you're holding as to when you're selling.
100%.
So we have some pretty big things that we're doing.
We're working pretty closely in the back channels with Alpha Faroes at the moment, which I've
been putting out some Alpha to people as much as I'm allowed to sort of list out at the moment.
But we've been working with them pretty closely.
And as I've spoken with you before, their Alpha is pretty close to second to none.
But at the moment, what we've been able to do with our funds is we have a daily, weekly
and monthly return on our investments.
We have a daily return on the rent of our Alpha Faroes, which are being rented out so
that other people can tomb raid for the people that can't afford their 12, 13, 14, 15 sold,
whatever their floor price is at the moment.
For people that can't afford that price, they can rent the Alpha Faroes and then they can
earn up to about 0.085, I think, a day.
So they're making 0.065 sold after the rent that we are gaining.
We're holding 100 of the LP shares.
And the liquidity Faroes, which are giving us, I think they gave us about six sold this
week and about four and a half sold last week.
And there's also, with the white labels and things that are coming, and I think they're
up to 120 at the moment, we get between 10% and 25% revenue from each one.
And that comes in a form of a monthly revenue.
So we're hitting at all three level points at the moment.
And look, to be fair, there's not many NFTs in this bear market that have either paid
for themselves or closely paid for themselves, and we're sort of still continuing to earn
long-term.
And that's got nothing to do with floor price or anything else that sort of comes with
holding an NFT.
Now, there's some Alpha for you guys right there.
So your treasury is pretty much stacked, ready to go.
Yep.
So we've got, I think we've got 45 Alpha Faroes.
We've got 100 liquidity Faroes.
We've got about eight to 10 Cyberfrogs, which have got a nice pump for us at the moment.
We originally purchased them to access their Thor trading bot, which we may decide to use a
different trading bot at some point, pending what happens over the next month or so.
But yeah, we originally bought them for access and depending on your floor price at the time
as to what access it gives you from a USD standpoint to invest.
But their trading bot's doing really well.
I think the base one's about 10% to 12% a month it's making.
We're heavily involved there.
We're heavily involved in DeFi district.
And that sort of leads into part of one of our revenue streams that we're going to try
to hit on moving forward as one of their big things in life that they have done.
And some of the founders are earning extremely large sums of money with Arbitrage Airbnb.
That's part of their revenue stream for their business is that we're going to be doing something
similar that I'll be taking their course and effectively running with our liquidity, running
some Arbitrage Airbnb's IRL so that we have Web 2 and Web 3 IRL revenues to make sure that
we're sort of hitting our revenue streams on multiple levels so that we're not putting
all our eggs in one basket, which I think is pretty amazing.
Definitely.
That, you know, all that definitely sounds real interesting and real, wow, you know, that's
something else.
So, you know, just out of curiosity, as you're adding to the treasury, what type of projects
and, you know, what are you looking for to add in there, let's just say?
Yeah, well, the majority of times we're looking at ways to make money.
Pretty much, yeah.
So we're not really looking at a buy-sell trade of alpha and things like that.
We're looking at long-term sustainability.
We're happy to take a lesser percentage from a revenue stream than the quick buck.
You know, that's not what we're here for.
Our whole thing is to, our whole motto is to stop losing in Web 3 and help people be in
a safe, sustainable place doing that.
Where we can educate and help along the way.
I think a lot of people get sucked into alpha, get sucked into loaning, you know, against
their NFTs on Sharky and getting nullified there.
You know, there's a lot of ways that people are losing at the moment, not just being rugged.
And our whole space is really sort of pushing towards, you know, stopping that.
Yeah.
And part of what I'm hoping, you know, long-term with partnerships like yourself, you know,
working with Flann at the Moorbears, you know, Cindy at Fractured Apes and some of these other
spaces like Elf and Farrah's is that I would love to have an ecosystem of, you know, 10,000 to 20,000
holders, maybe more, that are all working together with different niches.
And they're all sort of, we're a one-stop shop in a safe environment with trusted founders
and trusted holders that, you know, we can sort of nullify, you know, all these hurdles
and all these issues that are in the market at the moment.
And just sort of build and continue to build and build it sustainably so that we're here for a long time,
not just a short time.
And also build those, not just your Web3 partnerships, but being an Australian, I'm pretty social, mate.
And I enjoy having a beer and talking to people.
And I want more of that in Web3 from our spaces than these sort of fake collabs and partnerships
that promise the world.
And when you get to a mint or when you get in a bit of strife and need a hand,
you know, they're nowhere to be found.
So that's definitely not what I'm after.
Well, that's the smartest way to do things, right?
Like, that's what you're doing is exactly the right path that you're on.
So, you know, keep doing that.
I'm definitely going to be holding on tight.
So that's for sure.
My NFTs aren't going nowhere.
Mate, that's good to hear.
You know, I hold quite a lot, which some people sort of questioned to begin with
about, you know, a founder holding so many.
But with us running as an investment in a business type space, I'm looking at more as
holding shares in a business.
You know, I'm not looking at it as holding an NFT and being a whale in a project.
You know, like mine will be always staked.
It'll be always locked up.
You know, mine will never get sold no matter what.
And with the plans and processes that we have, I don't see the point in ever selling.
You know, unless something drastically happens, you know, in the world that, you know, things
go to zero, I can't see how we're not going to keep progressing steadily on our path and
having fun along the way.
100%.
100%.
Do you have any, any rough ideas on, on the payout amount for NFTs?
Yeah.
So, yeah.
So that sort of comes with a sustainable level, I suppose I'd put it at.
Um, you know, I'd spoken to quite a lot of people and, and, uh, done some AMAs and a
few spaces and I said that it was probably going to be a three to six month sort of event
before we would start giving passive out.
Um, you know, like I said, we're making a reasonable amount at the moment, but what we're
trying to do is to hit a certain point, um, of holdings that when we've got those holdings
and they're working for us, they'll be, um, supplying enough soil that we can, you know,
0.5 soul a week is what we're aiming for as a passive per NFT.
So once we get to that sort of 200 to 250 soul a week, um, returns is when we'll, we'll
be looking to push that passive out.
And, and being some of the weeks that we've had from the, the LPs and, uh, rents and other
things along the way, we've had some pretty gigantic weeks that would have, um, there was
one that would have, if we had roughly four to 5,000 soul, we would have got about 500
sold back for the week, um, not including the, the daily rents and other things.
So it's definitely achievable.
Um, and as, um, like I said, the arbitrage airbnbs and those things start to come in,
it makes it even, even closer and even quicker.
So, um, we're just sort of all systems go trying to get to these points and, and as soon
as we get there, um, I won't hesitate in pushing the button so that we can start to get
that out.
And, and the way that we're going to get that out is in a play to earn game that we're going
to have built, it's going to be a bit of a, a street fighter type style game.
It's going to be pretty basic, um, but with obviously our characters and we're going to
have it so that there'll be two games.
There'll be a play to earn game and the other game will be a bit of a rigged play to earn
game that all holders will have access to that'll only come up for those wallets and
you will play to earn to win your revenue for the week.
So that's, um, that's where we're going with that.
Now that's, that, that's something I'm going to look forward to.
Yeah.
Well, it's a good, it's a good way to have some fun and in a nostalgic way, but it's
also a good way to, uh, beat the regulation laws and things with crypto by, you know,
just sending out money.
You know, obviously we don't want to be classed as securities or issues or things that, you
know, is happening with ETH at the moment.
So we want to make sure that things are sustainable and above board and something that we can continue
to have longer term.
You know, we're not just a flash in the pan.
So, um, yeah, it's, it's just sort of forcing, you know, I never force my philosophy on people,
but it's trying to force my habits, um, and my ways about, uh, the ways I go about things
in web three onto our holders so that, you know, I got into web three, you know, because
I loved it to begin with.
And it's an avenue for me to push my life and career down that path.
Hopefully as a ex professional sportsman that works pretty hard on the tools these days
as a tradesman, it's not sustainable what I'm doing with my body at the moment.
So I needed another avenue to either get off the tools altogether or start to subsidize
some days with a, with a wage and other things.
And by doing it the way I've done it and the way that we're doing it at Tekashi in such
a sustainable way means that you can actually bank on your returns and bank on your investments
on what you're doing.
Um, you don't have to be sitting there stressing about floor prices to sell things, to try to
gain an income because the income should be coming just from your, your wise and easily
choice investments so that, um, you can go about your day-to-day lives without having
to worry about your, your money that's going to be coming in.
That's definitely smart.
No, a hundred percent.
Definitely smart.
And that, that's, you know what, we, uh, we was talking about that a while back to, you
know, a major issue with, uh, projects nowadays is that they don't have a solid source of revenue
coming in.
Right.
And this is a big issue because once we hit another bear patch, what are they going to
Right.
People relying on royalties.
Look what happened.
Right.
Everything went to zero percent.
That's right.
So look how many projects died.
Right.
Just off of that.
So what you're doing definitely is very smart.
100%.
And, uh, guys, you know, again, underdogs in the market as always, but you know, I, I usually
try not to chase the hype.
I, I usually try to pick and choose, um, solid founders, big brains, as I would call them.
And, uh, yeah, that's why you're here, brother.
Thank you for having a good brain, man.
Smart brain.
Well, thanks, mate.
It's, it's been great to be here.
And, and, you know, like with the sustainable earning and stuff that we've done so far, we've
built ourselves up from a D rug to, you know, having 12 to 1300 soul worth of, um, investments.
And we've also given away probably 40 to 50 soul worth of NFTs through poker, mint incentives,
sweep incentives.
Uh, I've given away two ledgers, you know, like where, you know, whatever comes in that
that's there and I'm able to do it.
I'm always giving back to everyone and we'll continue to do so.
And, um, like I've tried to explain to people, um, to go a little bit easier on me at times
being that I'm doing 60 hours a week on the tools with a wife and a young kid and, uh,
and trying to run a project that I make nothing off, um, at this stage.
With no payments that, um, you know, we're, I'm giving a lot and we'll continue to give
a lot no matter what.
So it's a great place to be.
And, and I can't wait for us to partner up, mate, and see what the future brings.
Definitely.
Definitely.
I think we, we have a lot to sit down and talk about.
I think the last couple of days have been very productive.
Definitely have been very productive.
They definitely have, mate.
Don't want to drop any alpha here right now, but guys expect something huge to come.
So we're working.
And with all, and with all that, you know, we're going to, we're going to see you guys
and your treasury with sort of 20 to 25 gen ones, um, which you goals will be out of stake,
which will be on a six month vesting, um, period.
That sort of staking protocol starts with 500 soul in it, uh, and through the investments
will top itself up daily, weekly, monthly for the six month period.
And our aim is to get that out to sort of hopefully around the 2000 soul mark by the end
of the six months.
So that, um, that will be your staking rewards.
We wanted to make sure it was, uh, uh, liquidity pool, so to speak, but the people didn't have
access to just liquidating it and zapping it like most projects do this way.
It sort of forces the six month staking and the more that stake and don't list, um, the,
the more sort of, uh, the more points or, or staking points you will have, uh, to gain
more at the end of it.
So, um, it's going to be a good little protocol.
It's going to be nice and easy.
And our project set up that if you want to be active and, um, gamified and really interactive
with your PFPs and stuff, you can, if you just want to have friends and stake and have
chats and not have to worry about the project too much, you can do that as well.
So it's, um, we hit on all sort of all levels and it's going to be a fun ride.
Pretty cool.
Pretty cool, man.
Definitely.
Now, just out of curiosity, what are those points going to be used for?
Yeah.
So we're, we've had to change track a little bit on the way I was going to set up staking
just that it was going to be too many layers and it was going to be too big a staking protocol
to implement for such a small sort of collection and small holder base.
It didn't really make sense to go that path.
So at this stage, we're looking more like a Utes and Degos type staking where, uh, as you
stake, you get a point per minute or something like that.
We're just finalizing that at the minute.
Um, and if you're unstaked to D list, obviously you're not earning.
So it works like a, you know, like a stopwatch.
Basically it's always going up as long as you're staked.
Um, and I'll see the more people that list and don't stake that the better the rewards
become for you down the track.
Um, where we're, we're trying to find a way to use, um, points for PFP type trait upgrades
for gambling in poker and that sort of sense.
And I'm also trying to bring in a, a gambling protocol with your PFP and your points where if you said,
all right, floor price is five sol, um, I want a 25 sol, um, NFT.
You can put your points and your, um, PFP on the line, play a game that's of your choice that
will have made, that will be of a sort of 20 to 25% chance of winning.
So the ball's in your court, you will play for it.
If you win it, you'll win the NFT.
If you lose, you lose your, your, um, your gen one and your, your point, so to speak,
which would come back to the project and we would burn the NFT, which would make our project
deflationary as well in the gen one.
So, um, we're just trying to find a way to make that work, um, without it, um, taking too much time,
cost and everything, everything that goes with it, but we'll, uh, we'll definitely get it sorted.
All right.
That's something definitely good to know.
So the, eventually the collection will be deflationary.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So it's a 1500 collection.
Um, and it's the same, obviously with the gen ones being at 500, that if people choose to
liquidate down the track, that will become deflationary as well.
But by burning them the way we're doing it with the, with the holders passes, all the percentages
in the business will still say the same from the people holding.
So it won't affect it.
But yeah, the, the aim is to, um, make the, the gen ones deflationary is I have a few
other ideas for a few little, um, mints, so to speak, but I never want our whole entire
collection to be over about the 3,500 NFT mark.
I don't believe that, you know, I like yours.
I think you're four, seven, seven, seven yours, which I like, you know, anything under
5,000, I like anything over anything up towards 10,000.
And I see it as a money, money grabber, cash grabber, and I don't see the point.
Um, you know, there's some of the mints going on at the moment where, you know, people are
getting, you know, two and a half to 5,000 soul worth of, um, of liquidity coming in,
which I don't see, um, I don't see what you need that money for.
It makes no sense to me.
Um, if I wanted to build pretty much anything in web three right now, it would be, you know,
a quarter of the price or less than what they're gaining.
So I don't see what they're building and what they're doing, uh, in those spaces.
So yeah, we'll always keep it nice and nice and low, easily managed.
Um, and it keeps a sort of a supply shock and keeps the value in your collection for sure.
Smart, smart.
So we're going to open up the floor guys.
Uh, we're going to allow you guys to jump up and ask questions.
We know sound like has already requested.
So sound like I'm going to bring you up.
Feel free to go.
Give me a second.
Okay.
There we go.
Huh?
Okay.
We're going to try that again.
I just invited you to speak sound like.
Yo, what's up?
How you doing brother?
I'm good.
Good to see you.
Bullish man.
You guys got your first space.
Congratulations.
That's hype.
That's hype.
Lots of courage to step up here today.
I'll tell you that.
Well, listen, just want to, just want to remind the whole room.
Um, I look at the low right-hand corner.
There's, they call it the bubble.
It's that a little deal with the, uh, it says six next to it.
That's how many times somebody has, uh, retweeted this room or left a comment.
And it's super big on a, uh, given, uh, Twitter space to, uh, to do a quick reset and ask you guys to please retweet the room because that lets people know that this is going on, lets your friends know that this is going on, your followers, etc.
And, uh, so that, uh, so that you can get more people in the room so that they can hear what's going on.
Uh, so kindly do that if you haven't yet.
And for those that have had it, uh, it's awesome that you guys did that.
So, um, the other cool thing though, that's hype.
And I know I can count on bot to do that.
You guys are recording this space.
That's super smart because, uh, that way people at the community who miss this, it's very easy for them to find it and, uh, get caught up on what's what.
So this is hype.
Um, heard a little bit about Takashi Warriors.
I, I just came in on this about 10 minutes.
I'm playing kind of catch up, but, uh, but, uh, love what you're doing.
And I love that last segment you mentioned about, uh, not asking for more than what you need.
Um, the project I'm involved with is known as a ticketry.
If I got a moment, I could explain the sentiments, uh, that I share with what you just mentioned.
I'm, I'm happy for you to chat, mate.
For sure.
Go for it, brother.
Appreciate that.
Appreciate that.
Um, yeah, our original plan was to go at a five, five, five, five was going to be the original, uh, uh, number of ticket trees.
And we talked about the whole matter and, uh,
I guess I should get you people not familiar with what ticketry is about.
I'll briefly talk about that before I could explain this circumstance.
Uh, what ticketry is about is, uh, event.
We allow event organizers.
So that's like sports teams and concerts and comedians, uh, anywhere live events.
We allow them to sell their tickets, uh, uh, as NFTs, but use NFTs to sell tickets to their fans directly at face value.
So it eliminates all unnecessary fees, uh, with an option for it to migrate into a digital collectible after the event.
And, um, initially it was believed that, uh, the target was going to be five, five, five, five for the collection.
And, um, the creator platform, which is available to the event organizers as that got shopped around, uh, because the platform has been built up and ready to go.
So a lot of refining obviously needs to be done, but, uh, it's not like we're doing, taking minting funds and then hiring developers and trying to get this all rocking and rolling.
Um, it's our philosophy.
That's not how you go about if you're trying to start a business, you got to, that's how I consider utility NFTs, by the way, is that they're businesses.
Uh, not that they're just communities and artwork.
It's community artwork plus utility.
There's that business side for you.
Um, and so initially we believe we needed five, five, five, five, uh, but then as we were shopping the creator platform, um, the, the potential clients got really excited over a specific piece of utility.
We decided to unbundle it and it's going to be something completely removed from ticketing that will be offered for people who don't even need ticketing solutions.
Businesses don't even need, need a ticketing to be used.
They can use this extra utility.
And we know that that'll be an additional income stream for the company.
And so now we reduce our supply to three, three, three, three.
And we had to reeducate our, um, community because they were thinking, oh, it's going to be five, five, five, five.
It's funny how people think about, uh, NFTs.
And it's like, it's really is a bad move to try to get more money than you need.
Like it doesn't, it doesn't benefit you.
And, uh, it's just like, it's just like, oh, my child just came in.
Um, it's just like, if you were starting up a real business and some company could offer you all this money up front and then they want a larger percentage of your business.
Well, that can get in the way of things.
I'm going to put it on hold for a moment, but I'd love to hear other people's sentiment and build on this point I just made.
Daddy life.
Love it, man.
I feel you there.
Um, does anybody else have questions?
Anything to ask, uh, ask or ask Takashi?
Feel free to jump on up as well.
I have a question.
Did, go for it.
Did Takashi Warriors, have you guys already minted out?
Uh, yep.
We've had two mince.
Um, we've had our founders mint, which was a 500 collection that minted out.
And then we just have recently, about three or four weeks ago, had our 1500 collection of our Gen 1's mints out, which are our upgradable traded, uh, PFPs.
Um, yeah.
So, you know, along those lines of getting as much as you need, my, we were sort of aiming at the 1200 to 1500 sold that we could have got from our mint.
Um, but I knew around the 700 mark was all we needed.
And once we hit that mark, um, as most people that were in Takashi, uh, along the way, the mint incentives were pretty insane.
Um, there was a lot of free stuff given out because it was more about, uh, helping the ruggers and filling their bag moving forward than it was about making money.
And once we had enough, that's all we needed.
Um, you know, there was no point in, in, uh, ringing more soul or USD out of people than we needed.
So, um, it's always good when anyone can change track like that.
And I'm just glad that we're able to get to that situation.
Yeah.
Excellent.
Excellent.
Um, that is, that's very cool.
I'm going to go and, uh, check out your project, get more information about it for sure.
Um, and then, uh, yeah, so briefly, it's just, it's just some quick alpha for anybody in this space.
Um, and definitely if you hit that a little, uh, icon, you can ask them up here and speak.
Um, but yeah, it, it should be a red flag for you when you guys do your own research on a given project, it should be a red flag.
You should challenge why the collection is so big because, uh, because what we brought back to our, uh, our community, it became way better because when we went lower, then that means when it's time to do, should you, should you have a rev share and what have you, it's more per NFT.
So we went from five, five, five, five, five, our new collection is three, three, three, three, uh, which seems like fate because the name of our company is ticket tree.
There's a three in the ticket T I C K three T.
And the original name of the company was the three tree project.
So it was pretty funny.
We wound up with the three, three, three, three, uh, but, uh, I was, I was hyped when I learned that we had this opportunity to reduce the collection.
Uh, I was like us too, right?
We have, uh, with, uh, halo labs originally, uh, there was seven collections, including the halo horns.
Uh, we got rid of the halo horns.
Uh, we ended up with 8,000 and change and we're like, you know, that's just way too much.
We started shrinking numbers, shrinking numbers, shrinking numbers and trying to figure out, okay, what's, what's the best solution on where it's fair for, you know, holders as well.
Cause we're holders as well to reclaim their NFTs.
And at the same time, um, you know, bring more value to the collection cause it's a smaller supply at that point than 8,000.
Um, so, I mean, we gave the community a couple of votes, um, everybody liked the 4777 number.
Uh, we were cool with it as well.
So we went with that.
Yeah.
Which I think as well with those smaller collections, which people don't sort of think about when they're starting these collections or running these collections is it's, it's difficult to handle a community.
And depending on what price point you are and how many unique holders you have, like a 10K collection, you know, you might have 3,000 holders that you're dealing with.
And the team of mods and people that you need to, you know, be able to sustain that, um, when giving enough time to everyone and helping support everyone, I don't think people think about it in the beginning.
And then things can get too much pretty quickly.
That gets real overwhelming quick.
Like, yeah, and the, the FUD rolls in, there's a lot of different stuff to it that, you know, you know, the, the team might be on point and, and really good.
And, um, you know, they're getting flooded with FUD and, and all this stuff because of their time zones or when they're not available with work and all that sort of stuff, just purely because they can't handle the load.
And I think people do forget about that and, and it's more a money sign that at the start of it than it is a sustainability.
So any collection that I think, you know, retraces like you have with the, the ticket one and, you know, retraces from a, a seven collection group to one, you know, is the, it's the best step you can make moving forward.
A thousand percent.
For sure, man, for sure.
And again, like you said, it's, it, there comes a time where, you know what I mean?
Every, every project, every builder project will have that moment of silence.
I call it, you know, and that usually is when they're, you know, the founders are there building and, you know, communities doing their thing.
And then all of a sudden that explosion happens, right?
Like same concept as we talked about, as you were saying about cyber frogs, you know, I think they were building the Thor out for what, about five months, six months now.
Yep.
Right.
And now they just released it and sure enough, their floor just skyrocketed and they were down.
I think they were around nine soul, if I'm not mistaken.
And now they've pumped up to 17.
Yeah, they brought out their beta, their beta Thor, so to speak, and got a pump up to sort of 17 or so and then dropped back down to eight, nine at some point.
And now they've released their, their version.
And to be fair, their beta version was pretty amazing.
It's, they were hitting, you know, eight to 8% to 21% on their two lower contracts and their high contract was nearly 40%, obviously high risk.
But, but the numbers were huge and, and now that, now that they've sort of retraced that, got it quicker, got everything sort of tightened up.
Yeah, they're, they're pumped and I don't see them stopping anytime soon.
The, the, I get a lot of alpha on cyber frogs as the, the founder of alpha pharaohs, Timmy is on the team as well at cyber frogs.
So we get a lot of information from there and, um, he, he truly believes that the cyber frogs and alpha pharaohs will both be in the top five projects on soul in the next sort of six to 12 months.
So, um, there's still a lot more to come and, and these are only the, their first sort of steps.
All right, that was definitely like when I, sorry, go ahead, Lowe.
I was going to say there's a lot more to come.
Don't, don't, don't forget.
Wink, wink.
Wink, wink, nudge, nudge.
Yeah.
But it's, um, yeah, I think as long as we, we can all stay together and all stays a team and relaxed and calm and, um, informative, you know, like there's a lot of money to be made.
There's a lot of friends to be made, you know, where, you know, we're 13 years since, you know, Bitcoin dropped, but we're still so early in this space, you know, as people say, but people say it, but don't actually understand it.
And where we are right now, we've still got a long way to go in everything.
So, um, just strap yourself in and enjoy, and enjoy the ride.
Yeah, definitely, definitely.
Like, this is just the beginning and a lot of people don't understand that, right?
So, I mean, people say, oh, I miss Bitcoin.
I miss Bitcoin.
And trust me, you didn't miss Bitcoin.
This is nothing.
Right.
What, what it's about to do, what crypto is about to do in the next, let's say, five to 10 years, um, especially with, uh, regulations pounding down now.
Um, if you go back in history and see the same concept with stock market, um, stock market, I think was what, uh, as soon as regulations came in and actually cleaned the place up.
So, I mean, don't get me wrong, there's still insider trading and stuff like that in the stock market.
We all know that.
But, I mean, it's not as heavy, heavy as it was before.
And, um, it, it, it went parabolic.
It went parabolic, right?
So, and, mate, and people, people complain and people are worried about regulation and I welcome it with open arms.
The, the billions and billions and billions of dollars on the sideline waiting for the regulation, um, you know, we hit, you know, 69K with Bitcoin, you know, a two trillion market cap.
And we've got hundreds of trillions of dollars sitting there waiting to come in, you know, like with the Bitcoin halvings, you know, moving up towards 2030 when the supply shock really starts to come in, um, from a mining standpoint.
Um, and all this money starts to flow in, you know, the, the market cap for crypto could just be at ginormous levels.
And at that point, you know, think about what everything was worth at two trillion market cap and think about it when it's 200 trillion, um, you know, and, and, you know, people say that it's, it's not, you know, how can you even think about that?
But that's, that's genuinely where things are going to go when, um, retirement funds and hedge funds and all this stuff starts to flow into, uh, the regulated crypto space, you know, things are just going to be astronomical.
So we are extremely early.
We haven't missed Bitcoin.
You know, I, I expect, you know, a Bitcoin number of four or 500 grand at some point in the 2030s type range, um, because it's, it just makes sense.
It's pretty basic sort of math, the way it works.
And, um, you know, people laugh at you when you say that, and I'm not the sort of person to throw out stupid numbers, but it's, it's pretty plain and simple.
And if things keep going down that direction with regulation and the money inflows, then that's where it will naturally go.
So, um, yeah, I, I welcome the regulation.
I actually can't wait for it.
And I think the FTX, FASCO and the things that are happening at the moment is perfect because it will force them into the regulation.
Not saying that the initial steps of regulation will be right.
Um, but at least by getting that regulation in and that safety into the market, so to speak, allows all of that big business and big money to come in.
Um, 100%, 100%.
And that's the thing, right?
Like, uh, just like you said, I don't think the first steps are going to be the greatest, but I think that those steps are going to be crucial and needed in order to make the changes that we need in this space.
Absolutely.
Yeah, absolutely.
And we, we talk about decentralization and doing it on our own and things like that.
But I think decentralization is a pipe dream, um, and I don't think it's achievable, but a form and a level of decentralization is achievable.
And, and when we start to get that regulation matched with a certain level of decentralization, um, you know, the, both of those regulations and decentralizations together are really going to skyrocket the space.
And, you know, being in spaces like bot and Takashi and being in the right cryptos, it's just going to change people's lives.
And, and so many people around the world that have sort of shunned crypto and not got into it are going to be, you know, left in the gutter, so to speak.
Oh, you're absolutely right, man.
And, you know, not financial advice, but hey, we're, we're early, we're real early.
We might be, we might take hits now, but I mean, if you can hold on until everything settles down and everything, you know, everything, um, irons out the way it should, you're in for a real big run.
Well, and, and that's the thing, mate, we've got, you know, 15 to 20 third world countries around the world that have become crypto havens or using BTC as a major currency.
And, uh, whether they're third world countries or first world countries, there's a lot of smart people involved and these people are taking these small risks now.
And if all goes to plan, you know, they, they become one of the minnows to one of the, the mid-level holders of, uh, of wealth for these small little countries.
And, um, you know, it can nearly happen overnight once this regulation comes in for them.
And, and I hope it works out for them because, you know, we're all there with them and it's, it's going to be a fun and exciting ride.
And I think that's going to be the best part.
The ride will be as fun as the, um, the, the outcome at the end of it.
Yeah, we definitely, we definitely got, um, a roller coaster ahead of us.
So it's, it's going to be a fun ride.
Yeah, for sure, mate.
We've got all that sort of Bitcoin halvings, Bitcoin supply shock and things moving into the 2030s.
And we're also, we're also tapped out on, um, on the USD as the major currency.
You know, if you look at major currencies over the thousands of years, the currencies have been number one.
We're well overdue for USD to fall in the sense of, um, being the number one holding.
And I think it's achievable that BTC becomes the number one holding and then becomes the, the base level currency moving forward.
So, um, obviously I'm not the smartest man in the room.
I never claimed to be, but you know, you only have to look at basic numbers and basic data over the years that these sorts of things happen.
And if you can pitch a 10 on the right, uh, on the right horse, so to speak, you can ride it all the way to the finish line.
And that's, that's the goal, right?
That's the main goal.
Ride it all the way to the finish line.
Well, well, I'll ask you this question, Pete.
Like right now, if I said to you, USD was to fall this year, what's the main currency in the world?
What would you pick?
Sheesh, bro.
I don't know.
Cause everything falls right after.
Right.
So, well, that's it.
Whatever China has it.
Yeah.
I don't know the Chinese currency, the specific name.
The Chinese yen.
Yeah.
That's right.
Yeah.
I think it's yen.
Yeah.
But I can't see, I can't see the, the Western worlds approaching yen as the number one currency, um, without a major fight.
But, you know, I'm just sort of talking, um, purely from, you know, sitting here as crypto holders, USD holders,
AUD holders, myself here at, you know, the, the main sort of currency is USD, but I can see that there's only really one option that could overtake USD at this standpoint.
And that would be BTC.
BTC.
You know, it's a, it's a base form of wealth and digital, digital energy is Michael Saylor will call it, which I think everyone needs to, you know, watch his videos on what BTC is to fully understand it.
But, um, it's, it's, I'm, I'm purely so pumped and so bullish on the crypto space that I love these things.
Just, just sitting there spitballing and talking about it.
Yeah, bro.
Definitely a conversation that can go on for hours.
One, a hundred percent.
And on that, mate, I'd love to, um, I'd love to do some, a weekly space.
So I've been talking about it with Takashi for a while and, um, being my sporting background, um, I've been a high stakes NBA and NFL fantasy player.
Um, obviously love crypto and web three, you know, it'd be pretty cool if we maybe organize a weekly space, mate, that we, um, we talk about this stuff, which I think would be pretty cool.
Yeah.
I'm cool with that, man.
We do a little bit of digging and research for the week and then we just show off at the end.
Right.
Yeah.
I'm always happy to show off, mate.
I'm the first one running around nude when I've had too many.
Yeah, exactly.
I'm happy with that, mate.
Oh, man.
So, um, I did want to do a couple of giveaways.
Um, I did have a whitelist giveaway to do, um, for, um, what are we here?
For Puff Stars.
Sorry.
Um, Lowe, do you want to set up a giveaway bot or do you want to do it in a different way?
Um, would be a good way to do it.
I have 10 whitelist spots to go with.
I advise, um, we, we got a room here.
Um, anybody show us some reactions if you're interested in some and then the balance you
guys can, uh, put up as a, uh, as a raffle on, on the home site, on bot site, uh, on the
discord.
Yeah, I'm cool to do that.
So anybody here interested in some whitelist, uh, what was the, what was the name of the
collection again?
Puff Stars.
Oh, oh, shoot.
They were on, uh, I was on an awesome, uh, spaces with Puff Stars that was hosted by slip.
Who's with, um, with Stoned Ape.
Uh, but unfortunately they didn't record it.
So, but, uh, Puff Stars are cool.
If, if I remember right, they're the ones with the, in real life, uh, they got an in real
life store over in, uh, Florida, one of the vacate, like right on us one, like right near
the beach.
And it's, um, I can't remember which, uh, community in Florida, but, uh, Puff Stars, their, uh,
their hopes are to actually, um, become a, uh, franchise.
So that's what's happening in real life side.
And then they're sorting out a, uh, a, uh, NFT collection to, to expand their, uh, their
voice and get the marketing out.
And as part of their rev share, they're not doing a rev share because they're IRL, but
they're, they have a way of compensating the NFT holders by, um, by hiring you guys to
be marketeers.
So you will get a specific amount of money based on, uh, uh, retweeting or however, in
the, uh, in, uh, social media, how you might get the word out about the wonders of Puff
Stars.
So, um, I, I liked what I heard.
I don't know too much.
Everyone has to do their own research, but, uh, but you should know that they're definitely
out there and they're definitely grinding and they already have an in real life store
running for the past, uh, four to six months so far.
So they're doing really well with that.
Yeah.
So they have a merch and smoke accessory store.
Um, it's in Florida.
Uh, they're going to, their utility is going to be tasked to earn.
I know.
I don't know how that's going to work.
Um, I'm going to dig into that myself cause it sounds real interesting, but, uh, thank
you.
That's what it's called.
Pete, that's exactly what it's called.
That's the methodology for, uh, for compensating people because, because they're IRL and they're
in the U S they can't just be doing a red chair.
It's it'll, it'll ultimately come back and haunt them, but they absolutely can hire you
each as a part of the company and your responsibility is to help market.
And that's the task to earn platform.
Something to say, I would maybe say similar to tomb raid.
If you guys know what tomb raid is, I'm sure everyone knows what tomb raid is going around
like hotcakes right now.
That's a really, you know, smart platform to use for engagement on Twitter.
Um, I've used it many times with alpha Pharaohs, um, and made a little bit of money to it on
the side as well.
So definitely, definitely a pretty cool thing.
So, yo, I made a wheel, I made a wheel spin wheel of names.
So, I'm just going to spin and, uh, whoever wins.
And, and I'm happy to do a giveaway as well.
All right.
To make it easy, um, a number between one and 30, uh, which was my cricket, my professional
cricket playing number.
And if people want to put their, down in that little comment section down the bottom right
with that bubble, the first person to put the right number in there, I'll give them two
Takashi's, which would be about three soul worth.
Let's go guys.
Pick a number.

Pete, how do you want to do, how do you want to do the wait list giveaway?
I want to do it for everybody here.

and you guys are good to go
post proof
so far one person has come to claim it
where you at
where you at
Pete while we're going through the giveaway I'll ask you one quick last thing
what's your um what's your thoughts obviously we've had some dips with the FTX fiasco and things
now we've got the um
the the bank bankruptcy and people diving out of USDC like what do you think might the next few months might hold
NFI of course
uh bro it all depends on what happens Monday
Monday is going to be a determination on if the feds are going to step in and actually do the right thing
uh because it all falls back on them
it trickles down on them
right
um as they're squeezing and squeezing and raising interest rates they didn't quite uh
you know dig in deep enough to realize what's happening with banks
and uh
you know what's happening on their side
you know it all like I said a lot of people are saying you know
now again
NFA but from what I'm hearing
people are saying you know
Powell might get forced to resign
you know like
obviously there's certain big things that are happening right now in the states with uh
the re-election coming
stuff like that and I don't think Biden wants uh
you know so it's something like this to happen in the country during that time right because it's not going to be only one bank
you got um
and this again guys this is just my opinion right
uh this is just what I would
personally do even in a situation like this as a trader
now you're going to get guys that are going to be short sellers
shorting the banks
because they know if this if this particular bank is going down and
you know what
they didn't have any um
they didn't have any bad investments
you know I mean they were actually making good revenue
so for them to fall
it was really a panic right
on um
yeah well it's going to be interesting because
I'd been calling for quite a while that we would get to
around this point with the re-election that they would bring enough pain
to make them look like they were
had a hard stance on inflation and the things in the market
moving forward so that then they could
retrace that in time
to make themselves look good
from you know giving people back money
and things like that moving towards their elections
processes so um
yeah it will be extremely interesting to see
what happens in the next uh couple of days
and uh which approach
that the government takes with it
exactly
exactly and that's that's going to be the key thing
right if they're going to actually step in and say
okay you know what they might actually have to
lower interest rates now because of this
and this is like um
this is this is something like I said
monday is monday is the day that we're going to find out
you know what I mean
so I'm waiting for that
um apparently they're calling an emergency meeting
from my understanding as well
so this is this is huge
yeah and I think it's another big thing
you know like I've been
calling out ETH for quite a while
you know since they've gone to ETH 2.0
I've been telling everyone
um being that
I hold a fair amount of ETH NFTs
and people um
like Coquag and stuff that's in here now
hold a good amount
and letting them know
to be careful that
you know they firmly put themselves
in the security standpoint
um by changing the way that they do things
kind of proof of stake
and um I think
it couldn't have come at a better time
for ETH NFTs
and ETH as a blockchain
that this has sort of popped up
to really take that um
that spotlight off them quite quickly
that you know
if power was to
you know have to resign
and and everyone go into panic mode
and um
it would really help them out
a huge amount
yeah 100%
and also you know
lower the panic with the public too
because right now that's
the biggest thing right
everyone's trying to withdraw their money
you know and I
I don't blame people right
you're running big corporations
uh you know
you got to do
four hundred
five hundred thousand dollar
payouts on payrolls
you know
where are you getting that money
if your bank's going under
right
so now
you know
us in crypto
are laughing
at them
saying that
hey you guys
kind of like
took a dump on us
and in reality
your systems are failing
yeah that's right
yeah
but you know
all this stance
was to be to help the banks
and to help the government
by recouping money
and then a bank falls
in the
in the process of
recouping
it doesn't really make
a lot of sense
you know
from there
you know
makes them look like idiots
exactly
exactly
guys
whoever wins
by the way
go into their server
and there's a section
for us
okay
so just
post it there
what's the project
called mate
puff pastry
puff stars
I was going to say
I do love a good croissant
puff pastry
that's a good one
I've been in one of those
moods today
and I've been bulk trading
everything
I've been
NFTs flying in and out
of my wallet all day
we won't know for a few days
and tell them
whether I made good moves
or not
yeah
Pete
mooncake did win
yeah
you haven't said
too much
today mate
what's
what's
one of your
big catalysts
you know
I've seen you
wail into
you know
more bears
and other things
like what's
one of your
big catalysts
to buying
NFTs
what
what drags
you in
mate
into
purchasing
or minting
say it again
what's
one of the
big catalysts
for you
you know
what makes you
mint or buy
an NFT
in this market
like what
what drives you
to wail in
you know
obviously
there's something
like more bears
and things like that
that you've wailed
into
like what is
what is a catalyst
that pushes you
into
into the market
to mint
or buy
usually
I just
the founders
I don't
usually invest
projects
I invest
in people
yeah
you know
what I mean
I see
your work
and if
I see
the founders
that work
you know
what I mean
just a no
brainer
yeah
and second
second question
how did you
end up on the
blackjack table
before mate
the blackjack
oh man
that was
bro we went
up to
I took
one soul
all the way
up to
37 soul
nice
being the
degen that I
I lost it
actually no
I didn't lose
it all
I'm still up
five soul
it's okay
well a question
for you
having played
your blackjack
and things
like that
with
with
jellies
casino
thing
you know
gambles
coming out
with primates
making a
big casino
not just
casino games
actually making
genuine
casinos
is it
something that
would tempt
you into
playing
on them
I try
not to
brother
to be
honest
with you
because I
like I
don't
like I
don't
stop
like I
just said
like I
was up
six hundred
dollars
from
from eighteen
dollars
you know
what I
mean
so it's
good for you
if spices
and things
are running
poker
and stuff
pretty regularly
it's enough
to get you
interested
that it
keeps you
off the
table
I'll play
poker all
the time
because that's
like it
doesn't get
too crazy
in a way
you know
what I mean
especially
like tournaments
and stuff
yeah
I love
I love
I love
playing like
poker
tournaments
yeah getting
just sitting
at that table
especially
these online
casinos
like you can
just sit
at home
comfortably
in your
chair
smoke
you know
what I
mean
chill
like just
yeah be
comfortable
and just
bet a whole
shit ton of
money
which is
I have a
real affinity
with horse
racing
like I love
horses and
horse racing
like I can
sit there and
watch it all
day without
having a bet
I just love
what they do
I think
they're awesome
and but
it was the
same thing
that I had
a couple of
months there
where you
know you're
sitting at
home
everything's on
your tv
your playstation
your ipad
your phone
ads are
everywhere
you never
have to
leave your
couch
it's like
you're betting
with fake
money at
times
it's um
it's a
yeah
it's hard
and yeah
that's what
with the
with the
jelly rascals
and things
like that
I'm just
trying to
hold the
right ones
to get
you the
rake back
and the
potential
revenue
more so
than being
actively
involved
in the
casino
side of
because
I love
nothing more
than a
poker night
where you
know
seven or
eight of
your mates
are sitting
around drinking
and you've
got a
I don't know
if there's
any females
in the
space
but a
topless
bar mate
or something
like that
and you
you crack
a nice
bottle or
something
and you
rip in
for the
night
so um
hopefully
a lot of
people don't
get too
sucked into
it and
and lose
a lot
of money
but I
kind of
like the
idea of
sitting at
a table
wearing a
pfp that
you own
which is
your persona
so to speak
sitting there
playing it
it seems
pretty fun
so yeah
there's
there's
there's
one project
that's been
working on
that
already
I know
you got
some alpha
I got a
little bit
no um
it's uh
bone voyage
I know
they've been
I know
they've been
working
yeah so
they've been
working pretty
hard on
their platform
I haven't
really looked
into their
thing for a
while I
hold like
20 of
their nfts
but I've
just been
waiting for
their platform
to come
and are
they are
they bringing
a poker
platform where
you play
with your
your pfp
or something
so to speak
yeah
basically
because they're
just purely
poker aren't
they
yeah yeah
yeah straight
poker
just straight
poker
yeah
they've
they've been
I'm pretty
sure developing
for a good
few months
on a
decentralized
type
poker
platform
what's um
yeah
because I
always
considering
like
I'm interested
to hear your
thoughts like
I was considering
you know
I prefer
rather than
you know
rumbles and
things like
that in
discord
you know
I prefer
to play
a game
of poker
where you've
actually got
a chance
the the
the balls
in your
your court
so to speak
as to whether
you win or
not you know
you can actually
make some moves
and do it
yourself but
I was considering
instead of running
raffles and stuff
for high-end
nfts you know
I've obviously got
some decent
decently valuable
nfts that
do you think
running something
through bon voyage
with an entry fee
to play for
you know
like my legendary
rascal with the
the Thor pfp on it
you know
like if
if I was to put
something up like
that for a
prize pool
do you think
that would get
a pretty good
interest in it
or just say
yeah
because I
I'm trying to
use it as a
form
you know
say you and me
we partner up
with bot
and Takashi
I was wanting
to use my
high-end items
to get my
money back on
them so that I
can rebuy into
the market
but if you
make 40
sole on the
on the game
well both
spaces get 20
sole
and um
you could
potentially use
it that way
as a bit of
a revenue stream
for the spaces
that were involved
to to try to
push the
projects
I didn't know
if that would
hit enough
see how many
people play
poker though
that's the
that's the
thing right
worldwide a
hell of a lot
no no no
100% no no
for sure for
sure that
yeah I know
I know
it's just getting
you know
when I put up
a thing and
then have like
five people show
up right
no that's
exactly right
yeah like
it's
yeah
it was more
you know
you've probably
seen
I'm more than
happy in Takashi
to spend my
own money
for other
people
so if I
put my
balls on the
line so to
speak with an
nft it's not
the end of the
world for
myself but
it was more
just trying to
find a way to
um find another
revenue stream for
something like
bot and
Takashi that
um we could
all have fun
and and hit
hit some
game for
poker but
at the end
of the day
too like to
look at
what um
my legendary
rascal would be
worth with that
um decal on
it so to
speak
um it
some people
would change
their lives
you know
like yeah
that one that
that one that
you have with
the Thor is
it's worth a
pretty penny
let's just say
that well that
and that's what
I mean you
know like those
sorts of things
and not being a
dick about it
like I'm not
wealthy by any
means but
like I do
okay you know
like winning
something like
that would be
amazing and be
such a highlight
of my day but
it doesn't change
my day to
day but
some people
that I know
like um
megaman and
and some of
these people
in my space
like if they
want something
like that it's
actually life
changing for
them life
changing yeah
100%
and it's a
it's a way
that um
that spaces
can obviously
get some um
some revenue
and some income
in but also
help change
people's lives
you know like
a lot of
people have
said to me
they've wanted
to buy
rascals and
and uh
and um
taos and all
those sorts of
things and never
been able to
so um
yeah just
trying to work
out ways that
we can win
and other
people can win
as well
i i might
have an idea
for that
i might
i look forward
to that
is that going
to be another
two-hour vc
between you
and me
oh man
hey at least
there was a
lot of
information
being put
down on
the table
so that
was definitely
good
we had a
vc for over
an hour
yesterday and
i think um
the only five
or six
words i
spoke were
how fucking
bullish i
i couldn't
say anything
else but
those words
i think for
most of it
oh man
that was a
definitely a
good conversation
definitely a
good conversation
yeah and
mate this is
the thing i've
been trying to
push this a
lot and i
don't think
people use
this tool
enough you
know i'm
in some
amazing spaces
and people
don't use the
vc for what
it is and
100%
yeah and
that's a
great thing
you know like
like more
bears and
flan over
there like
the bloke's
accessible every
day and he
would do
anything to
help you he
gives you more
information
educates you
like like he
takes you
through so
much and
and just the
spitballing and
ideas and things
that you can
have in those
spaces you know
like if i've
got 10 minutes
on the way
home i
literally jump
in you run
a few things
past you he
gives you
amazing information
and moves you
on and you
go all right
mate i'm done
and he goes
awesome mate
great to talk
to you you
know and
and half the
time he falls
asleep with his
computer and
things like that
while he's
talking to you
but you know
what you can
gain from that
vc is i think
second to none
and and people
really are missing
the boat with
that
oh it's it's
it's definitely a
lot for me i
love vcs i
love vcs it's
a lot um not
just easier i
guess it's
better um
communication
in that sense
uh text a lot
of people get
lost in text
you know i
mean so uh
depending on i
always say
depending on
someone's mood
at the time
that they're
reading translates
to how they feel
towards it right
so uh voice
chats definitely
uh i i would be
number one on
for that so
yeah well i
think you know
i had these
chats with my
son at the
moment with
youtube and
all the other
things that sort
of he does
and things
that are
happening in
the world
and the way
the world's
going with
the so-called
social media
it's taking
away that
social aspect
of life and
the keyboard
warriors are
really running
in and i
think that we're
really missing
the boat with
information
education you
know not just
the friendship
side of it but
i can tell you
from vc talking
to flan and
yourself and
other people the
things you learn
uh are massive
and you know
some of the
stuff that you
know has been
spoken about
in the last
week or two
are nearly
life-changing
type events so
you know those
sorts of things
would never have
come about if
you're not on a
vc or a twitter
space or things
like that talking
so i think people
need to make sure
that they're well
aware of those
things and make
sure they don't
miss the boat
100% and you
know what that's
that's definitely
what it is right
it's that network
you want to build
and if you're just
going to rely on
text you're you're
never going to
reach you know
that level of
um let's say
friendship right
that is you were
saying as well
you know i mean
like to be
escalated to that
partnership level
right so um
yeah definitely man
voice calls voice
chats um 100%
plus that's why i
said this this
week i want to
hit twitter space
do our ama
bring you up here
next week we want
to bring up more
bears so hope
you guys listening
there you guys
are up on the
stand next
wow that's so
slow yeah sorry
matt i pushed
push wrong button
it took me to my
other twitter account
and dropped me
down but um well
matt i'll look
forward to the the
more bears one um
and you know i
enjoy talking to you
and stuff like that
but talking to
people like flan
that have been
eth miners and
eth devs soul
devs you know
like there's so
much information
that people can
give you that you
know a professional
cricketer like
myself that's now
a tradesman laying
timber flooring you
know like like this
world is beyond me
you know in web 3
sometimes you know
so i stick to my
niches and things
that i'm good at
but when you talk
to those sorts of
people that can
offer you that sort
of information like
it's amazing to
listen to
well knowledge is
power i always tell
people that right
and learning you can
never stop learning
every day is a
learning experience
so you know i
always tell my uh
my wife too you
know like i wake up
in the morning and
pretend like i'm
stupid because i know
later on that day i'm
going to learn
something to make me
smarter you know i
mean so just keep my
mind open to
information you know
it doesn't matter
which way it's coming
in no and that's
right and they say
that as you learn
things things get
pushed out of your
brain and the 15
years of playing
professional sport
partying and
training and there's
probably quite a few
things i can forget
and move on from
which my wife would
be happy about as
well i'm sure but
um yeah it's always
it's always good to
upskill mate and i
can't wait for the
day that i can
subsidize a day of
work um with
web3 and i can
start to do some
courses some dev
work you know start
to learn some of
these things from
people like flan and
and do some of
these things because

and open a ticket
uh you want to
go to your
How are you doing, brother?
I'm good, sir. How are you?
I'm good. I'm good.
Where are you driving to today?
I'm driving to New Jersey.
Oof.
Yes, sir.
Nice.
Yes, sir.
Mass.
Mass, you are the next winner for the waitlist.
If you do want it, please join the Discord and open the ticket.
So, Pete.
Mass, join in, bro.
With Takashi, you just kind of hold those NFTs and you get passive income.
So, my IQ level is kind of low, low.
So, you know, in that sense.
I think the idea behind it is he wants to build a solid treasury
and utilize that treasury to give rewards back to their holders, right?
But, of course, what he was saying is that he wants to build it first
and then start distributing.
So, it brings value to the collection as well.
So, if someone wants to trade the NFT for a higher floor price,
they can as well.
You know what I mean?
Right now, he was saying people are trading it for, you know, really cheap.
Which, I mean, to be honest with you guys, what he has in there right now
is pretty solid projects, right?
That's right.
So, they're definitely not going nowhere.
Yo, Pete, hold on one second.
Your mom's holder account, you won one of the waitlist.
You do want it.
Please join the Discord and claim it.
That's a real...
There, guys, join the Discord, open a ticket,
and I'll drop you the information.
That's a real account?
Again, that's your mom's holder account.
What the fuck?
What the fuck?
Oh, my God, the names these days.
It's a good name.
It's a good name.
It is, it is, it is, it is.
Most definitely.
So, I'm waiting for Mass as well.
Um, GB.
You as well.
And GB, and Mass, and your mom.
Yeah.
So, what Takashi was saying about, uh, putting 20 souls together and playing poker.
So, I mean, do all of you guys play poker?
Yeah, like, he wants to have a poker, he wants to have a couple of poker games, like, with
the communities, right?
Okay.
And just bring communities together.
Like, that's the whole point, right?
Is just to bring everybody together.
I mean, that's a nice idea.
That's a very nice idea, you know?
To bring in more, more players, more, uh, communities to win NFTs and also play poker.
At the end of the day, everyone wins, right?
Yep, exactly.
Exactly.
That was some very hot, good alpha news from, uh, sounds like, though.
Uh, cutting down the NFT collection and, uh, making, making it form a new meaning.
Yeah, definitely.
But, um, they're, they're, sorry.
So, with Ticketry, you can, they're, uh, given the option of changing the actual NFT, which
is your ticket, into, uh, you know, whatever specific highlights you want from the event
or, uh, players or, you know, whatever it is.
Or, you could burn it too, right?
Yeah.
But they're giving people incentive to say, hey, you know what, you can actually change
this with the metadata.
It'll be like trading cards.
Exactly.
Exactly.
Same, similar concept.
Yeah.
All right.
No one else is coming in to claim whitelist.
That's not.
What do we got left?
Uh, six.
It was mass, mass, mass, your mom and GB, they don't come forward, I guess.
So, uh, who didn't win that's still holding that's still around.
Um, setral?
Give one to setral.
All right.
We got heart and soul.
Here we go.
Here we go.
Sorry, guys.
I should have specified that.
There we go.
There we go.
Your mom or GB didn't come forward, maybe they'll win.
Shale, are you here?
Give me an emoji if you're here.
All right, if you want, you can join the bot Discord and get yourself a whitelist.
So, the Puffsters, they have an in-real-life store in Florida?
Yeah.
For what?
I didn't really look into it, to be honest with you.
Yeah, I looked into it.
For what?
They have an actual pot shop.
Nice.
Pond?
Pond shop?
Pot.
Pot?
Oh, shit.
Where is legal?
Yeah.
So, they actually have, they sell merchandise, cannabis.
So, revenue stream is going to come in from there.
So, all you got to do is market them?
Well, I mean, they're, they, I don't know what they're doing to market themselves, but
they have a prime location, apparently, from what, in their past space, people have heard
as well.
So, you mentioned their way of earning is stats to earn, right?
Yeah, exactly.
So, you might have to do a tweet, right?
Like, again, it's like Tomb Raid.
Like, everyone has Tomb Raid pretty much in their Discord server now.
Okay.
So, whatever it would be, they would probably load it up, and you would do a tweet, for example.
And in that tweet, you'd get paid to do it.
Okay, understood.
All right, guys.
If there's no more questions, we will close down the space at 11 o'clock.
Mm-hmm.
All right, guys.
He's been in the space for a long time, so.
All I heard was passive income and I'm ready to join.
Yeah, I got about 25 of those passes, I think, I think 25.
I'm just waiting for some of that share to come in.
So you have 25 founder passes or 25 Takashi mannequins?
Well, both, because if you held the pass, you got a one-to-one airdrop of the body.
So I have 25 passes and 25 Gen 1s or 21 of those, like, or 25 of those bodies.
Damn.
Okay.
Well, if you want, stop the recording.
I don't know if you can, to be honest with you.
Let's see.
Let's see.
Adjust settings.
Oh, it's all good.
We're going to jump off in five minutes anyway.
We'll jump on in our voice chat in the server.
Let's see.
All right, guys.
all right guys we're gonna close this down uh we will do a random space probably in the middle
of the week as well uh we'll start doing more spaces uh get more people on board
