Hello hello hello, I'm a simple Michael. Who's there?
Hello, hello, hello. Ah, the wonderful prey. How are we? It's me. I'm good. How are you? Yes, not too bad. Saying some familiar faces there. Bob, Miguel, Cursed, I'm Rick, and then we've
also got Rocco Commiso. So you've seen the Avatar, the Elder. Genuine Avatar, here's we got Dumbo FC, welcome, TC, Mu Jou D'East, I'm going to really put my French Lertest today. Boris
I think I can get that one right there we go. Welcome on and all. Right. Well, we're good started. Should we start? No, we're recording this, we're recording this. So anyone that really wants to listen then can play it back if they don't listen to this live.
Yeah, yeah, that makes sense. What's the topic? It's good to the topic. The topic of today are the troop cards. Oh, troop cards. I think it's a topic that like it's close to both of our hearts. We have worked
quite a bit on it together. So quite excited to talk to you about it. Wow. And have our first spaces together. It's this wonderful isn't it? Really is. Normally we talk about football or baseball I'm sure we will but these are these are these are linked and yeah as you said they've been a lot
time in the main kid but yeah we've tested them and they work and now we can share them. Okay so before we start I was thinking because I mean I know you're quite infamous and notorious on Twitter but for the people that don't know you
Who are you? Tell me a bit about you and your position. Oh me, I just, I'm just a regular guy that plays, it's fortunate enough to play a fantasy football game for pretty much 24/7 apart from when I need to sleep. So yeah, no, I think Twitter's just a fun platform isn't it where you can, you know,
You can flex, you can say what you want to say without any real recourse. I gave up on things like Facebook and LinkedIn years ago now. I'm playing a game, I find like-minded individuals playing the game, sometimes are on Discord.
sometimes on telegram, sometimes they're on Twitter, but the games that we play require access to information, and that information because of the way Twitter spreads information so quickly, yeah, being on Twitter, getting access to information, things like injuries, suspensions, transfer room, and things like that. Yeah, I think
It's probably the place do I like being here. Yeah, sometimes it's fun. Yeah, sometimes there are a lot of idiots on here, but it's it's almost a necessity I think for For what I do now, which is yeah, just playing fancy football on quite aggressive basis Yeah, yeah, it's part of the game so it's so rare
right that you're playing. Yeah so for those that don't know I joined Blackpool when it started in the remark 2021 was a year's old yeah it's 21 so just about 18 months ago now and yeah it's a collaboration of some really cool smart individuals that
Yeah, just keep an area to the ground listening at some very exciting things that happen in the world of Web 3. We're fortunate that we get to speak to some some pretty cool people through the connections that we've got. The ultimate goal is to deploy capital into games in the Web 3 in the Web 3 world.
and also become successful and being towards the top if not the very top of the leaderboards in these respected games. So we've got, say, people that go out and research the games from the ground up, we've got, you know, finance division that can help us to secure, you know, positions either in seed rounds or in large amounts of NFTs prior to games
going public and then we've got the ability to go and find and hire managers to manage those assets or if they come with their own assets, support those people to become the very best within the games themselves. I think we'd all like to see more games go on to become as successful as Sirir.
I think they're a lot in the pipeline that are close or edgy closer to being or potentially being as successful as Sirir. But to date, I don't think you know, on wrong standards, Sirir has been a front line quite a considerable distance. We have got some very nice positions in other games.
might be in early stage beta sometimes into alpha but they're not quite at the stage yet where they've got that reach that's a rare of gods and the user base and the daily transactions and the volume that's going through on their in-game assets but I think maybe 18 months to years from now and I hope in 18 months to years from now what
have a wider breadth in terms of the games, vertical managers like myself playing those games and they'll be a lot more freedom of choice for people that just want to play games, maybe not fixated on. Fantasy football or fantasy baseball, maybe they want some beat 'em up so different first-person shooters and things like this. There's a lot of cool stuff out there.
Hopefully, I see months, the landscape looks a lot different than it does today. Yeah, I'm pretty sure it will. Like, there's a lot of stuff being built. I guess it's also part of the environment that we're in right now. But anyway, we are talking about troop cards today.
