We are live from NFT NYC rooftop of the public hotel. I'm sitting next to Coco the party a his brothers from all sorts of mothers and Even the same I think And yeah, we are we chilling Six is on his way up. Let me get you up here. Thanks everyone for joining in
I'm sorry if it's a little loud we you know we're doing a live from NNIC. We want to give everyone updates on everything happening out here and what's what's popping in the market I think everyone here is extremely happy about the market today. We are seeing green numbers we saw e-pix two thousand
And yeah, that should be exciting for everybody. I'm happy that everyone here has to show up early. Thanks for being here at 6 p.m. on the dot. What's up, six? What up, homie? I miss you so much. I'm excited. What's up? What's up? Man, I know y'all are a little ballin' out of control since the fucking market pump.
I heard y'all having a lot of fun, man. You know, I've been keeping tabs on a lot of y'all making sure y'all good in the city. They didn't the same without you, bro. They didn't the same without you. Right, though. We got plenty more. We got plenty more. You know, there's always going to be another chance, another opportunity.
I know Miami thanks coming around the corner Austin coming around the corner. So we're going we're going you know we're going party for sure You know it's crazy you got profits out here hanging out with other women not hanging out with me and I must have been must because you because you're
here and it's very sad you know like it don't feel the same profits out there having fun with other people I just texted her she better get in here and talk to us and explain herself but now it's a I'll tell you I'll tell you what it's been interesting so far I mean we've been here for a couple nights we got another night of plan ahead of us right now hopefully good
into the Steve Aoki event. We're waiting pending approval for that. Tonight we have a kid called Beast was able to meet no signal from our space last week. We have a lot of really fun. You know it's been fun you know being at the D-God Hotel. You know obviously we threw that party with them before and I'll say that yeah.
I haven't seen anything that's matched it yet. I mean, Buckets do an awesome party last night. We haven't seen anything of that. I haven't seen anything, honestly, from the quality of last year's NFT NYC. And I think tonight at the marquee, if we can get into that, see if it'll be okay, if that will probably be one of those.
one of those like I guess I'm high high dollar spending I mean even tonight maybe a king called beast I'm I'm really excited for that too because they uh they teamed up with Medoin our friends over at Medoin Riches-Skellhorn uh is one of the sponsors for that so I'm really excited to see what they got going on but uh I'll be honest with you guys there's been some real there's some down to earth deng#
I'm not going to lie, there's some really, really cool people in this ecosystem. And I'm more bullish on the people more than anything. I think that we're really going to see a shift in how events work in the future. And I'd love to see, you know, not only when Meditope has the collection and the ecosystem, but
really just just the collabing with with the other with these other event holders and providing an experience that would make somebody want to be there, you know, like maybe maybe it's an NFT drop in the future where it's like anybody that attended will get something of true value with actually like utility attached to it. I think we I think
I think the medicine will be the way to do that and I think that you know something that we collaborate with you on six and other other projects and people. And yeah, no, just having a blast, man. So I want to kind of rent it. Let's talk about the market real quick. You know, we have a Bitcoin, the coin sitting at a third
$30,359. If they're still holding strong with a 5% increase, but you're seeing the all coins. This is typically all coin time. So as Bitcoin dominance goes down, all coins typically run. And right now you have optimism. You've got doge. You've got a lot of stuff going on. And some of these, what do you guys think? When are we going to see one of those like 30
percent days or like a Shiba or you know what do we need to Elon Musk when you guys think. You know what I think it's coming I think what we just see today Elon's bringing finance and crypto into Twitter I think on the day that launches we're going to see some huge numbers let's go.
What do you think, what do you think, what do you think, what are you doing? What I'm doing, you don't want to know what I'm doing. I'm starting to strip club right now, but I'm being honest, you know, you know, I don't know how to lie, but what it is is, I don't know, bro.
when the market gets to pump and I just gotta be honest. Alright, let me just be honest with this. Let me crush everybody fucking dreams. We get happy when we get a little pump. It might be five.
It might be 10 oh it get a 10% pump. Oh, we're fucking nuts around here. I think we forget a lot of us just down 80 90%
We've been doing bad for so long that a little pump just gets excited but it's good. It's good to see the market going up. I still don't believe it. I still just be aware. Anybody that is trading, be aware of what you're doing because
We you have to realize there's a lot of people holding a lot of Bitcoin. It's a lot of people holding a lot of crypto if they don't it's going to If they start buying it's going to jump a little bit so you have to realize that you got to look at was Don't
romanticize with the idea of win a bull market do not romanticize with the idea or we're doing good now is all the way up and then fucking wreck yourself uh just just just beware if you're a DC ain't go ahead but pay attention um just just
I don't believe it. I don't believe it. I still feel like I'm not bearish. I just like that the market has been down and I needed to go even further. For the simple fact, a lot of people will be able to accumulate on a long term.
comes down to traders, you're going to make money on the way down on the way up. So it doesn't matter. So like me personally, when the market moves up and down, it really don't care. You know, I'm going to take my profits when I'm going to take my profits. But if I'm down, fucking 70, 80% on my holdings, fuck, I'm taking profits for it. You know,
I'm riding his wave until we get where I'm going. So that'd be the thing. And I'm blessed to be able to do that. So for those that just kind of enter in a little here, a little there, just be careful. Sometimes you gotta
unplug, go outside, breathe, go have a couple of drinks. It's amazing to see profits all y'all out there having fun unplug, go touch some grass, touch some ads, you know what I mean, do what is it that you need to do but enjoy your life. What you doing profits? What's up?
I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you. I heard you.#
sweaters and ski jackets and yeah I can't go shopping because I don't have enough room in the suitcase and now I have it I don't know how I'm gonna get a giant duffle bag from G-GOD with a glass boot and a towel and I'm gonna get that back to Florida somehow but the market is pumping
If you go buy your another bag, go pay the extra fee. No man, I mean, I'm down bad bro. I'm still down like 70% I only want to look. I'm just happy to see the green but you know you're right. If you haven't touched grass, you've touched some ass, you know that's probably a good idea. It's a great time to do that kind of stuff. What are you doing, property, touching#
Mm-hmm both both both. No you hanging out with that girl. I was trying to find out where the girl is at. I thought you were the the plug and yeah, you definitely weren't at the same parties with me
Yeah, just got to the big event, you know waiting some like juice to activate so I can get walking and then yeah, you know, I'm gonna see you in an hour. I can't wait Jesus profits the cops are coming for you. Holy smokes. So you're down the street at full force right there now
We're gonna have fun at Wolf Financial and then I think wherever the night takes us to either kid called B. Stay okay, whatever we do it all we have that type of a They're so close we can do both sick well, that's good to hear but I mean I just found six. We know it's the same the same without them Six is having fun, but it's okay
We're gonna figure out how to get to Texas right Chris yeah, we're gonna if Jordan doesn't climb me I'll walk start walking right now Maybe I'll just start walking from New York at this point. I'm gonna be honest with you in the sense I have everybody here Chris bro I'm scared I can't catch I would only really go for me
I'm gonna tell you all along, all your motherfuckers is in tech. You have to be a consensus like you have to be that's where all it tech all the bcs everybody to make the decisions that's where they go to is not I know it's not a quote unquote is
It's not as fun as the NFT event, as some DJs running around, fucking drinking out of shoes and shit and then putting it back on. You know, I know it's not as fun as that, but it can be, but the reality is when it comes down to anyone, this intake, anyone, this in the space, why would you not go?
To the biggest conference in in the country when it comes down to web 3 technology and all of these shit like dotted that is where the decisions get made So the same way as the satellite you might not go into the conference But they have events all over the place just like they do it
anywhere else and that's what the people is going to be when you're looking for funding, when you're looking for partners, when you're trying to see who has the next technology that's going to take over in the next five, 10 years, that's what they are. And we have to realize, I know a lot of us think like DJs in cities
even like me I'd be like man for last year I was like fuck that shit bro the fuck are we gonna do over there but and then we go to a lady and fucking get drunk I was like bro it's all we gonna do is fucking party Chris like yeah we working though we gonna work and then we party but when the party
never ends. And then when I keep it going, I don't care. I don't stop. I mean, we're going to go. So that is a problem. So we have to find a balance. I'm being Austin for consensus. You know, we can turn up. If you want to test them, they got plenty grass and everything else around them, motherfucker. Yeah.
Holy shit, I can't even talk up here. It's this Wi-Fi is in my, uh, this Wi-Fi sucks, but um...
Yeah well I'm showing french fries on my face right now for the first real outside of Chinatown. Keep talking, 60 out. Please tell us about your party man. I'm gonna get these french fries down so I feel better here. What happened? Pardon? Pardon?
Oh, man, you gotta tell me, fog it out the car, man. I'm trying to go. I'm muted. I'm muted. I have to take over here. Profits, we need to get shirts with sixes face from watching the guy do a shoey at the event.
In LA we need that like where he is literally trying to hold and his Hold it in like it just looks it's the perfect face. Let's get giant his face plastered on our chest and giant shirts like black shirts, which is just what just sticks its face and Where I'm too consensus? But that is a fun
I can mean right that bro it was my first time And it was and it was dope, you know, man. I ain't even go I ain't even gonna lie it was it was a great experience just seen a lot of this shit, but I don't see how you gonna take
You know what any D guys they're going to consensus let me know I will have brand new pair of shoes out the door for you to make do shoes It will be brand new you don't have to put it back in your feet. Yes, I will have yeah, that is true utility of a party. Yeah
So yeah, now we just throwing a low event. Yeah, we did you have to it was like my Facebook and I'm glad a car there because that's how I really feel like I couldn't believe what my eyes were saying. I'm like is this motherfucker really about to do that and he did that. It's legendary.
Hey, Provincy, what you in?
She's probably gonna chase down by the cops outside it. Nah, nah, I'm here. I'm here. I just didn't want to meet. Hello. How you doing? I'm blessed. Bless. Just with my friends hanging out. Thank you. Appreciate you. Well, we know we're six is heading to touch something.
But you know this is also a family family family space. Let's not forget and there's no financial advice here guys So and and six is cases right now. He's spending his profits And Koko said the same thing. I got Koko. He said the same way here He's doing what he's doing whatever want you to do
Here you go. You heard it from Coco himself. Do whatever everyone be like six is what he's saying. Shout out to Polkow in the audience. The man, the, the, he's not even a myth and shout out to Jordan. What's up Jordan? How you doing bro? Where you, where you're at? You're in the hotel about a few floors down, right? I'm a few floors down for me.
Yeah, I'll check them up to the roof here and have a French fry. We'll kind of fries. We're talking like sweet potatoes, shoe string, whatever. These things are like pretty skinny fries. In fact, yeah, I saw, I'm not sure you want to tell Pierre to be honest with you. The guy with the underwear hanging out is right behind me.
Six someone send you something you can't unsee All right, hey Chris. Oh, it's go on six No, go ahead. What your time? No, so okay, so I was out here with you last year. I don't know profits were you out here last year?
I think we lost profits to the streets. All right, all right. Well, what Chris, what do you see that's different this year from last year? And then I'll give my quick take. I think we're seeing more communities really, really strong community presence. Less, less big names from like
Emerging or like WebTube brands that are thinking they're gonna bust in I don't we're not seeing that type of stuff I feel like we're seeing a lot more like a lot more Holder based events outside of like the you know like what Buckets through yesterday for you know was Nakame goes into what we all called it but really that was a shell orbs
collaboration through a different couple different projects, but I'm just seeing I'm seeing more community community led and it and I'm very bullish and that's why I said of earlier is like I'm bullish on the people here and I think we're really solidifying more friendships of existing communities working together in the future for these going forward. I mean, the workflow was
Expo when I went there yesterday was the projects that were throwing the booths that they probably paid a new one from 10 to 30 thousand dollars for were extremely basic They it was like I don't know the auto show the auto show next door had like about a hundred X more people in it
All right, so if if we have 1% of the entire country owning NFTs we're probably in good shape. That's like 35 million people No, sorry 3.5 million people But hey, so so yeah, I think what kind of along the lines what you said would six said
One thing that I'm noticing is really, really high quality people here and as we're kind of, I mean, you asked when we're going to see the next 30% day, I'm personally hoping it's not for a bit because I want to see less volatility and just, I mean, slow and steady growth. We need to build this foundation
I think it's great that we shook out a lot of the weaker players and weaker parties and now we're left with some really quality builders and we're going to keep building together, we're going to keep growing these communities. We really see in that with all these different
niche communities, how strong they are. It's really admirable, especially given the last year that everybody went through. So I'm pumped to see where everything's going right now. And yeah, I'm really, really glad we're here. These events are still awesome. It's definitely way different than last year, but I think it's good. I think it's
what we all need. I'm excited to be here next year. I'm excited to go join six in consensus. I think it's at the end of this month and we'll just keep rolling. Yeah, and it's really hard to justify paying $800 to go to CNF, just NFT NYC. And when you can literally go next door,
and pay $15 to get into a car show and drive a Jeep up and down a giant like conveyor belt looking thingy. I just don't understand it. I gotta understand how anybody can justify this $800 purchase to go into a convention that I went into yesterday. In fact, I didn't pay. Everyone's basically handing out each
They're handing each other their their their land years and it's just like you just know it's you just know like you just feel for somebody like you pay it forward you know like it's like man save yourself $800 here and like it's be real like this this is not it's not sustainable like there's
You want the average person to come in they're going to the auto show next door literally and why you know My thing is like why not Parker Auto show why not create an experience between when you have two different conventions literally in the same convention center at the Javits and Create an experience where somebody when they use the test drives of the
these geeps, they get an NFT in a custodial wall or something. It shouldn't be split. Why not have it together and providing unique experience that no one's ever done before? What you think Jordan? - So NFTs have had such a bad wrap over the past.
year that I think they're going to have a really hard time just doing that to be completely frank. I do think that it'll be really interesting to see what happens when 8th fest finally happens because without NFT NYC, without NFT
FTLA without the actual conference bringing these companies, mainly that's what it's for, we wouldn't be here. They got to supply in demand and they got to justify what their prices are compared to the market demand.
I'm sure there are plenty of companies that are paying those high ticket prices and that's who they're catering to. I don't know if it's really for the average consumer. So it'll be interesting to see what happens over the next year. I'm really curious to see if communities can start to get people to flock to cities in the way that these
conferences are. I have high hopes for that. Honestly, I think a lot of what we do as a meta-top team and a lot of what we're creating here are these are these relationships to create those experiences in the future and I mean we're not an event planner company and that's not our goal as a tech company but like we might have
We're not the put on and strap on the boots and actually like do it because everyone has their strong points and a lot of these communities, you know, it's really cool to see board A if it's really cool to see the gods is really cool to be going to talk to a position in the I talk to a pharmacist downstairs. I talk to Pokey. I mean you got people it from all walks of
like that really deserve, that are setting this world, you know, setting these events and I don't, I don't think it really requires an NFT and YC. It just requires the projects to work together and this is how also emerging projects can get involved. I mean, like I said, none of the projects I saw at the NFT convention were
any names that we've ever heard of. I mean it was like what are you talking about? Like this here at NFT and my senior protocol okay? Interesting and it's like I feel like they're just they're taking like they're taking whatever liquidity they can to release events and I think that it actually might save a lot of money.
by communities working together and people, influencers. I mean, there's something I put on bearish on an FTE influencer, top 100, like who cares? I mean, what is an influencer doing for us in the space right now? Not much. And I mean, I'm friends with a lot of these people. I'm an influencer chat, and I'm not talking to any crap about them.
a lot of them in this bear market, the ones that are left, the ones that are still sticking around and traveling, they have a job and their life as an influencer is to create more and create an onboarding experience in my opinion that brings in more people and we need to give them good stuff to get behind.
Go ahead, it's a bit of a question.
revolve around not just their company but really whole communities of gamers and different types of things. So I think that that's potentially where this space is headed, right? Maybe not at first a single company holding something, but these projects, companies getting together and really formulating the space and pushing it forward.
Got it, we lose you.
Were you not able to hear him?
Yeah, yeah, I'm on the rooftop. It's actually better up here than in my room in my room. I couldn't even like it was connecting it out. So why do you need Wi-Fi on the rooftop? Because we're in New York and there is no service. There's no service here at all.
you five bucks you turn your wifi out on running 5G right now bro yeah but i mean i'm telling you guys i have not uh people are actually at this table that i'm sitting at that are not connected to the wifi i can't even get in the space right now Chris is down bad right he's got sprint he's got cricket or something don't you Chris
That's on the Samsung, but yeah pretty close Verizon here, you know, I think they're punishing us, you know, and they cut out their metaverse team that's on their Wi-Fi team. I mean, it's bad. Just just have Walker share his 5G out of the Wi-Fi deal.
Yeah, no, I think I mean none of us here can predict the future, but I think I think we can what we can do is help change the future and one thing I You know I talked to the guys about all the time is I think we need to we need to set an example once we have a selection to
people can recognize us by and we can uh you guys stop please I'm I'm gonna be trying to run a Twitter space thank you um sorry I got brother's dick ring um yeah we uh we we got it I think that there's a really good opportunity for for for
a collection like Meditope, I think it's going to be us to really disrupt and bring these other and be that what we tell each you know what we say about our companies everybody is we want to build the infrastructure in the road and I think that might have to do in an an IRL events too. I mean I'm not
I'm not quite sure what I'm supposed to do with this double bag in my room, but I definitely wish I could trade it for like an NFT because it's actually cost me more money to probably get this stuff down to Florida than it is if I just had like an NFT like that I could just floor real quick.
So I heard through the great vine a couple of days ago that you were actually really good at planning how parties. So maybe we switched to a gathering company instead of a tech company because we have you. Yeah, man, I'm, you know, I figured a worst case scenario. I won't go home.
So I'll just plan weddings. Plan weddings. Yeah. Sounds like exactly how I joined the Web 3 as to plan weddings. OK, so Shelley and I are going to hire you within the next year. I'm guessing-- I know I was sending the hook. I was waiting for you to say that. I was sending the hook ready for-- you guys are going to be my first wedding couple.
Can not wait. What's our budget? 100 grand 200 grand? Or do we need to get Richard's killer in response right? What's the deal? Can we wait till afterman and then I'll tell you what the budget is afterman? All right boys. Yeah, no Chris I just want to come back to one thing you said
because I think it's really prophetic actually. It's where I think the space is going. We can talk wedding planning later for you guys. But I genuinely love the idea of using technology to empower communities because these communities are built on tech to begin with. We're taking some of the most
Revolutionary technology that all of us will see in our lifetimes with everything we're seeing with blockchain smart contracts non-fungible tokens zero knowledge proofs everything that's happening here and We have we've used it to build communities. That's that's really what's happened with with PFPs and Twitter and everything going
on. Now we're going to go to this next evolution, which is using technology to take those communities to the next level. So it's building communities based on technology and furthering them with that technology. So it's way more than a collection. It's way more than any one project. It's way more than any one product.
And yeah, Chris, you really love what you said. So it's gonna have a man in anybody that really believes him, man, it's hope like just be a this real life. We have a lot of friends now. We have a lot of people in this industry. I just looked pain money and leave earlier today. They are big advocates of us.
He wants to meet up with us at some point. So outside of these web three people shoving alcohol all down their throats, yeah, we've been making a lot of headway with people and people are recognizing us, seeing us more often. And when we give them something to get behind, I have a feeling that it's going to be a snowball effect.
And from there, we just, we can finally do our jobs and provide to the people, provide to the communities. And I don't think there's a better group that we've assembled than us. I mean, between Jordan Walker, crypto medic, and so.
Down to even J-Cluck, shoot Music Eye, like Joseph, our CIO, we're ready to rock and roll and I think none of us want to get to make closer than our team and we just we can't rush things we just gonna make sure that I think that we're putting in this we're putting in the legwork we're gonna do something
around providing an experience already and setting that expectation for people that they are going to have a team of real mofos, real MFers out here that are ready to go to work for the communities and called to be at our own. All righty. Well, on that note, I appreciate
You'd post in this medic and and Chris and Enzo and Stefan Walk you're up here. I see Polko in the audience Coco. I know you're up there cap and Z all these all these awesome people and I have a dinner meeting I got to run to yeah, let's let's sort of down
know we all got to get rolling. So yeah, our special edition space from NFT NYC live. Appreciate you all. We're going to have some awesome speakers next week. And I can't believe this is our 43rd episode already. You guys are awesome. Yeah. So next week, next week we have a chance to potentially
doing a clone X take over or even potentially a D gods take over. We'll figure it out, but I think that you know, let's give the I think the D gods will need about a couple weeks to detox themselves. I mean these these I'm efforts can drink. I don't hang out with too many of them, but you know, they're they're here and full force. So
I love you guys. Thanks for jumping in here. Stay tuned for next week. We'll have some really good speakers and lined up once we get back into outside of the Expo mode. And yeah, soap talk 43 is a wrap. Thanks, John, for hosting this. And let's all have a great rest of your Thursday and an awesome weekend. See you guys next Thursday.
