Welcome to web 3 buzz. I'm excited today
Most people are interested in this because all your PFPs are the topic the topic is NFTs
Looking forward to be able to talk about this. This is gonna be exciting because there's been like a whole bunch of crazy stuff
Happening over the last week
What was it teddies over the last what the 24 hours the founder basically?
he had a long hard journey of 11 days and then decided to give up on the project and
Tell his community you can no longer continue
Terrible stuff that not exciting at all. But yeah guys for those people that
Invested in that you guys need to be a bit smarter with those lifestyle lifestyle start style NFT projects
Not not the best ones to invest in but um, we've also had some cool stuff happening lately with is it ERC?
404s is everyone anyone know about this. It's like a cool NFT
Sort of like meta that started to arise and I feel like if there's projects that were perhaps
You know, maybe a little bit dead in the water
They've started to adopt this new protocol and basically like kind of like revival their projects
So a ding-a-ling post about it a few days back. I
Was actually on a space with the guy that
Created the protocol. He was in the space with Pingu from across the pond and he was basically
Talking about how he actually didn't sleep for like about three days. He just worked
Worked non-stop on the development of this this thing launched it and it's like
Yeah, basically like the one of the most successful launches of of an NFC collection now the guys done exceptionally well
they're like outperforming a lot of different projects on
Ethereum side of things anyway, but um, yeah
Anyway, that is a little bit of an update on the NFT side guys
I'm gonna keep this space so about 45 50 minutes today
I gotta jump and do another thing straight up this but I want to welcome my co-host ex-co-host
I don't know if it's Sarah or Jeff behind the account
But well, I'm sorry Fred. I always get his name wrong
Welcome and then we've also got some awesome speakers new and returning speakers guys
Let's just go around the room and you can yeah, just introduce yourself
We'll do a quick like feel like a quick 10 15 second introduction to yourself and then we can we can keep it moving
Gents Oh meta you go for it first
Hey guys, thank you for having us again. I'm Nobara. I'm the global coms manager for Gentsokishi
It's such a pleasure to see everyone here and it's such a pleasure to start recognizing more and more BFPs on the sessions
As I joined but for those of you who are not familiar with the game
Gentsokishi is a 15 year old 3d mm rpg coming from japan
We've been doing a lot of kind of UGC and land and sandboxing
Expansions onto the already existing content from the web 2 versions of the game
So make sure to check it out. You don't need to hold any NFTs
You don't need to buy anything you can just download it from the app store and just start playing straight away
All right, and then Mickel go for it done
Just 10 to 15 seconds introduction if you can keep it short. Yeah, nice to see you guys again ladies first. That's very sweet
I'm Mickel of Sedona web 3 game launcher. We're currently being acquired
Currently working at the crypto recruiters as director of the ecosystem. So if you have any higher stuff you're dealing with get at me
Nice all right third wave go for it
Excited to be here. I'm Ray. I had market development at third wave. We are a unified growth platform for web 3daps
Launched our market intelligence tool last year and launching our wallet intelligence tool this year
Which is gonna have a substantial impact around enhancing player engagement
Monetizing more effectively and retaining more players. So really excited to be here. Thanks for having us
Hello, thanks for having us on the space. This is Travis over at nitro league
We are a high nitrous high octane racing game
You can find our download on our website or over on game swift as well. Thanks for having us
Hi, thank you for having me up here. I'm jujuki. I'm the BD for IV alien
We're a gaming project launching on polygon a first-person shooter
Game with the intention of not just being a game boy brand as well. Thank you so much for having me up here
Hey guys, I'm Andrew Luban. I was seven year professional athlete got into crypto in 2017 most recently with pulsar.ai
We're solving discoverability across the NFT ecosystem. So lots to talk about today and super excited to be here. Thanks for having me
Hey there, this is Dan the founder of Arcus. We are working on an unreal engine 5
Ape ability shooter with a protocol called skill staking. And yeah, we we have something coming for your c4 for
Hey guys, yeah, I'm Sam ex-researcher gone full-time
Log screen game design and working in a black pool and basically we've been
Yeah, playing games at the highest level and we're a community of gamers that shares perks and rewards and stuff together and it's fun
Awesome and finally King Julian
Hello. Hello. I'm the founder of Masma
We're building the most globally consumer centric ultra app for web 3 ever made we're gonna be
Innovating the web 3 user experience for everyone
And yeah, I mean we're gonna be also as well having some fun and empty so definitely interested to join that conversation. Thank you
Awesome. All right guys, this is it. Let's get straight into it with questions
So first question is and this is just like personal curiosity
And I think everyone be like pretty interested to see like how things are progressing in the space
but always a good sign and way to tell what are the most interesting NFT utilities happening right now and
When you speak just simply unmute yourself when you've got a point jump into conversation
This is usually how we do it and it flows pretty well
So the question again is what are the most interesting NFT utilities happening right now?
The numbers are going back up that's all I can think of I mean not really but it's I don't think we've come a long
Way from from last year. I guess is the point that friend make
Yeah, I think that's definitely true. I think that's partially because it's early in the cycle
I think it will rotate back into NFTs, right?
But I think hopefully what has happened and which is stepwise improvement this cycle is
NFTs not just as JPEGs right but as a unique business offering that for business are used as subscriptions
Content creators are gonna use with royalties, right?
Like that was always the promise of what NFTs could be is opening up new ways of operating doing businesses business
And I think you see some major players coming to the space with a fortune 500 companies or artists and celebrities starting to kind of
Dip a toe and really make a stab at how they can use this to to leverage their community and go direct to their consumers
So that that I think will happen this cycle and that's a massive upgrade from just JPEGs being NFTs right or vice versa
Yeah, I think that currently the ERC 404 is
Is pretty groundbreaking in terms of what what it can actually do and the applications it can have specifically to gaming
Like we're currently working on on something. I won't get into that side too much
but if we look at what an ERC 404 is and the RNG capabilities it has
you know anyone who plays games knows what loop boxes are and
This creates some incredibly interesting opportunities. I think that we are currently exploring
Within our game, but but yeah, I think that this is this is really something that's changing the game
And there are already a lot of devs working on some really cool stuff
To you like the the Yuga step right like all the
OG apes are out there tweeting that they're basically mad that you guys
Focusing on all this utility and like to go back to the vibes of what made board apes great to begin with and I think you
Know towards the end the last cycle we were having that debate with so many failed attempts at utility
It always was just about the vibes, right?
So is it like it's a big risk to try to add utility to a project because then there's a bar that you you're measured
Against right and even if you're successful a lot of this stuff doesn't even really matter like I'm I'm kind of anti
utility at this point like for just for NFTs not so much in gaming but for NFTs, but
I'm curious to hear what everybody else thinks
Just want to touch on that point with the gaming loot boxes
Is that I was reading a little bit about how it's reducing the the gas fees in terms of transferring?
like by like 50% and then like 80% in like
You know burning gas cost because they reuse token IDs. Did you have any more insight on that?
How it could be used in the games like that. Yeah, so so my background. I'm a smart contract developer
I've been following the latest updates on the smart contracts and there's one called the visible NFT 404
Shout out to the guys at gaslight and some other devs
But it is a really solid good implementation of the standard
One of the things I found super interesting when I looked up Pandora
Was the fact that people kept trying to RNG the the higher the higher tier crates, right?
And this is just a cool mechanism
Especially for for a gaming loot box, you know
You can have different tiers of a gaming loot box and based on you know
People are gonna keep trading because because people like trading Pandora's prove that
and and people are just gonna keep trying to RNG bigger loot boxes and
Right now one of the weaknesses with ERC 404 is that it can actually be predicted
But this this problem can be solved with chaining VRF
Which is what what we're kind of looking to explore and and you know, I think that a lot of other gaming
You know a lot of giving projects are gonna gonna do this because I think it's really cool
And that's due to the the IDs being similar so they can kind of predict that
Well, the thing is that when you when you break down an NFT
And then like maybe you you have a thousand tokens so you have one NFT now
Maybe you want to sell half of it, right?
And then you buy you buy up another half or you know different people are buying and selling but every time that you get
You reach that threshold of of those 1,000 tokens. You can RNG a new NFT, right? So
You could have different tiers of NFT and if you had good RNG systems that exist already on chain
you could just have like a cool different tier loot boxes and
Then you know the idea that I think works best for gaming is that then those can actually be burnt, right?
So then you create a deflationary mechanism for these tokens, too
And that's that's where I think like, you know
It can really be used as a tool for gaming projects for games etc to really add some value
That's cool within their game and leverage the tech
You see on the fourth RNG is just for anyone who doesn't know what that means
Well, like sorry about that, sorry about jumping right now
I was gonna say what I am like bullish on with utility and NFTs is
the way membership NFTs right now are tied to protocols and you could basically like earn back from holding some certain
like membership NFTs and also like
The integration of NFTs into gaming and metaverse as well
We could see a couple of that going around right now
If the island and you know the whole bunch
Where you could just take like different collections and put them into the whole ecosystem and get to use them
Just minting NFTs from a particular collection just because you want to use it on their platform
But like getting NFTs across the board and you know using them in the ecosystem. So that's also great to see
Just to add on to the 404 side
I think a lot of the responsibilities that come with adoption of 404 and applications of web3 gaming comes from institutional
infrastructure level plays
I think you know different gaming chains different blockchains being able to implement these technologies from a chain-wide level
Possess a really independent value proposition to a myriad of different games as a whole
We you know for our subnet that we're building out here our gaming subnet
Um, you know, we've been utilizing chain links BFR in a in a big way in order to you know, introduce loot box type systems
Create, you know deflation within games as well as offer discoverability to other new games
um, and the advent of 404 and being able to have you know,
A variety of different drop tables is a really interesting prospect from a you know chain-wide foundational perspective
Yeah, yeah agreed there agreed there like I think it also just especially with VRF
Like I think that that this is a potential to really be be an incredible use case
Four on chain randomization and then it could really just
Boost the actual transactions for that a lot if it gets adopted, but the stuff
That that's the whole thing
I mean like randomness calls through chain links VRF, you know, just us for example
I've been using it for well over a year. It's a fantastic way to gauge random, you know
Guaranteed on chain randomness, but being able to you know separate different loot tables to you know
How much in the way how many nfts are owned through 404 tokens is a very interesting way to be able to offer different tiers?
Uh to the individual users for you know, a you know chain that has you know
Let's say 10 20 different gaming projects all active on it
Guys quick reset of the room. I want to welcome our co-host nbe. Welcome legend. Uh, this guy's a champion
Like an og from from the start. How are you, bro?
Hello, everyone. Happy Valentine's Day guys and sisters
Let's go. I uh, nbe is obviously
Wearing a degod guys like this is like one of the most prolific
Nfts that we've seen at least in the salaana ecosystem and they've done a crazy bunch of shit to
Uh ink like encourage a bunch of uh, if communities to cross over into salaana with different things they've done with youth and whatnot
Worth noting those guys as like an awesome project in the nft space. Uh, four five give us a quick give us a quick introduction
Uh, and while he's doing that
Retweet the room. Come on guys. It is in your contracts when you jump into the speaker space to retweet the room
I want to see that retweet number go up bottom right corner. Press the comment button
It's the purple box and then press retweet and if the listeners could be so kind to do the same, that would be awesome
Appreciate you guys. Uh, but yeah thor fight jump in give an intro
Hello. Hello. Hello, everyone. Sorry. Uh, sorry
We're a couple minutes late here
What we're building is we're building a project agnostic gaming subnet aiming to be the c-chain of gaming
Uh filling up our subnet with a bunch of independent tools that provide a ton of value towards gamers and game games as a whole
We're trying to build from an infrastructural level perspective an institutional level perspective letting gaming projects focus on creating the best games
While we create a uh, you know open ecosystem that allows a massive amount of interoperability between different gameplay experiences
Awesome man, that sounds super exciting. Well done
Um, all right. So moving on to the next question to keep this awesome conversation going
Uh, and guys I like I I specifically frame these questions in a way to not only like create good conversation
But to also help educate people in the audience as to like what the latest in terms of like what's going on from
Thought leaders in the industry and to help them obviously make better buying decisions when they're looking to do certain things
So obviously topic is nfts and the next question is how are projects using nfts to grow their business?
And give us a couple of examples
Um, absolutely. I mean i'm gonna jump in here and then i'll probably shut up here a little bit
The other speakers could talk my apologies everyone else
Um, but you know as us being an over two-year-old project that's implemented nfts and core elements within our ecosystem
We see nfts as being that um entry point uh in player ownership
And the way that we're going to be onboarding the vast majority of web 2 users
When we look at web 2 users
We see a lot of web 2 players really have the negative connotation towards web 3 nfts as a whole
Mostly thanks to last cycle. Thanks to the play to earn season. Thanks to the ponzi season that we saw from that
Um, and I think you know being able to utilize nfts and introduce web 2 gamers with the real value proposition of nfts being
True player-owned assets, um is the future I think web 2 gamers already, you know, intimately value, uh, their in-game assets
I think there's you know, multi-billion dollar side markets that are created for, you know, different schemes and different video games and things along those lines
It's the just the next evolution of being able to take those instances outside of that single gaming ecosystem into you know
A multitude of different games. Um, you know different gameplay experiences and being able to use those in-game assets for different gaming experiences at all
Guys question is how are projects using nfts to grow their business?
Yeah, uh, i'm just gonna kind of tap in you know
nfts agree with uh, everything uh thorify there said but you know nfts are also kind of uh
foundational layer for for like kind of your community for you know, kind of a fan club membership in a way in some ways, uh for
Some of these different projects, you know, um
They're they're obviously like, you know
With our game and a lot of other games their gaming assets their gaming pieces their in-game items
But then you've also got like the pfp collection that like just kind of visually
uh portrays you as you know vibing with a certain community part of that community kind of like your
country club membership, um of our new generation of our next generation digital identities and digital
Um kind of lives are so much more prevalent and important now than they you know, we're just a couple
uh decades ago 20 years ago or so, uh, your your gamer tag is usually your gamer tag across all your games your
You know handle is your handle and in a lot of ways people relate with a certain avatar skin or something
And kind of make that their go-to avatar skin within a game. So
being able to have that nft just can also kind of take that identity step to the next level where
When I see that pfp when I see that, uh
Avatar that that nft whatever it may be. I I immediately
Associate it with a certain person group
Um, or or even sometimes, uh, you know thought process
Just adding on that as well nfts serve as a fantastic value for your community to have a vested interest within your project
Um, you know nfts don't just apply to the profile picture or in-game assets
They can also apply within ecosystems as a whole for example our you know origin collections
Uh, you know are the sole source of emissions for a gaming blockchain's native gas and utility token
This gives our users the ability to you know directly be invested into the chain's future
As well as you know be able to weigh in on a governance for the future developments of our chain
Yeah, I would love to uh get some feedback as well because we're trying to actively do this right now with mass mob
Um, so we have you know, we have a dap coming out and then there might be a potential token and then a blockchain down the road
um, but I created this collection called, um meepies, um, which is the pfp i'm wearing right now
Well right now we're in the process of building up the community. Um, and then
Possibly doing like a kickstarter
Um, and so, you know early supporters kind of like, you know would pick up a pfp
actively making it like an investment opportunity it's more of like a e-joint queue pledge, you know by
and then you would receive a pfp and
From there on we would then offer the users like, you know, early bird kind of perks, right? So from all the way from
There could be early, you know an allocated, uh portion of the airdrop. Um, there could be
You know an access code, right? So, you know the you know mess around getting an access code. Um, you could get
Access to I don't know behind the scenes but the the the the the the projects
Meeting so you can actually like kind of sit in kind of like when you when you're seeing all these like, you know
You could maybe we might be throwing these parties where we think about these joining these ultra parties because one of our
angels throws like the biggest parties in the world like he just broke a world record in lisbon for 1.5 million attendees
And like owns all these ultra parties and then we were thinking about
You know, maybe we might be able to include tickets so that all these folks can go to all these events for free
Um, I don't know. So we're trying to just throw in some early bird things because not only like a kickstarter. Will it help us?
Um raise funds for you know, maybe some random activities or just early
Um, you know being part of that, you know, I don't know
It's just the way like you mentioned is the way for users to kind of have a early stake or kind of support a project
Um, but like, you know by no means are we saying hey buy this nft 10x or anything like that?
It's more of like a hey, this is just a token of our appreciation kind of thing
So we'll love it for sure
Yeah, I mean, I don't know if I would focus on trying to utilize web 2
You know fundraising mechanisms in order to raise the liquidity pools that you need
Um, I would look at you know offering a free profile picture collection
You know like you're talking about here give your users the ownership ability
Give them all the perks that you're talking about and then sell that on a presale utilize those presale numbers to be able to deliver
A lot of those perks to your holders while you're looking simultaneously, you know building out your lpe pools to you know
Ex-cohost has just quickly jumped out and made me aware that there's a few people that might not be able to hear the speakers
So there could be a little bit of a glitch guys. Just be aware of that
Um, so if you do speak maybe just like try better and do better so that people can hear you because it's totally your fault
Uh, not elons. Anyway, um guys i'm gonna move on to the next question
Um, I find that I always get like a myriad of different answers whenever I sort of raise this as a topic in different spaces
What blockchain narratives use nft is the best and why and try try not give an obvious answer
Try think outside the box
Yeah, andrew from the poster account. I I think
Solana is obviously making a very compelling use case for the consumer, right? The fact that it's actually practical now
To to leverage nft's whether it's community led or for an individual business model and that it's useful that
The consumers who are buying into that bottle are going to pay the gas fees for what they get in return
I think that's a much more compelling use case at the present moment versus
Where ethereum's at with outrageous network fees and you kind of get the feeling that you're just recycling money through the same
Solana has done an incredible job of making that more manageable and more accessible at the moment
I mean like i've been looking at some of the crazy stuff happening lately
Making it like this is just a post that I saw but I saw a transaction on ethereum
Where some some poor soul wanted to send 26.7 thousand and ended up paying 120 thousand in gas fees to send it
On ethereum which would just never happen in salana
Like you know to send send that much money in salana is like a dollar or a few dollars or something like that
Like how that how that works on that side of things, but you know
I definitely think that the the
Sort of like volumes that you do see on on ethereum, you know, like
Still still sort of a king there bitcoin did take like a bit of an increase as well. I think there for a bit
they had double the volume of
uh, I think it was back in december or january and like uh
Like as a as a whole blockchain for their ordinals, right? Which is insane when you think about it
Like I don't know whether that's sort of maintained or if that's jump back down again
But you know just interesting to note like where all this sort of like liquidity is at the moment, but it just shows as well that
There's an insane amount of liquidity on bitcoin for all that sort of stuff. But anyway pulling it back into the question the question was
What blockchain narratives use uses nft is the best and why?
I mean there's no doubt like oh, go ahead
No, no, no, sorry. I've spot spoken enough. Go ahead
Yeah, I was just going to add I mean to to have the problem of scalability that ethereum has
It's a good problem to have and salon is not at that point yet
so that accounts for some of the reduction gatsby, but I still think in the same way that
salon it used bonk and took a lot of the meme coins and the nfts kind of the memeification or the attention element
Of of those pieces and brought that in and applied a lot of strong utility, um to those same attention grabbing mechanisms
I I hope they're going to learn the same lessons from ethereum and they're benefiting from the fact that their
Third mover in this case and they can scale hopefully and maintain those prices
I think the salon and use cases are very interesting. However, I do think the future is going to be more evm focused
I think the way that avalanche is, you know
Taking a look at the way that we you know interact and you know, bring in nft technology into a wider
applicable space through the modular design of subnet technology
Um as well as the interoperability to all other major evm chains, um is really a separation
I think that's why we're seeing a lot of these
Uh more traditional web 2 gaming developers look at being able to launch in a web 3 capacity on avalanche subnets
Um, also why we're seeing, you know more real world institution real world assets from institutions venturing into avalanche nets
Um, I think you know, I love solana. I think salon is a great chain
But I do think um having a massive amount of interoperability by chains built uh built under the same evm framework and sub structure
Is really valuable in terms of giving a cross chain pollination standpoint towards uh, you know
Nft collections and games growing larger audiences
Yeah, just just want to pitch there, uh, I couldn't agree more there's uh, there's so many things we can do with nfts
Obviously solana is is doing lots of excellent things
But it's important when we look at evm to to consider the amount of chains, uh, you know, ethereum is extremely expensive
But there are so many incredible use cases, uh being done for nfts one super fresh one
Uh is battle tech they're actually releasing a subnet and they're doing some pretty cool stuff with nfts for players, especially for e-sports
Uh where players can essentially, you know sell equity of themselves and then the people who invest in those assets
Uh monetize them through through the revenues that they win playing tournaments
And this is pretty cool. And the fact that these are all you know
With evm you can do a lot of things
Uh just because of of of the way it works the way you can program assets, uh, and it's really cool
So, uh, so yeah, let's let's let's keep the evm narrative going because it's really it's really good
I'm enjoying some of these answers guys. This is angles. This is awesome. Um,
I think I want to like get a little bit sort of specific
Uh in terms of like the question that was trying to ask I think I think it's not necessarily the blockchain that I was referring
To it's the narrative so when I look at when we look at narratives usually like people talk about what are the top narratives that are
Going to be working as the most popular in this next bull run or whatever it is, right?
And gaming and ai are two narratives that uh are going to be super popular in this next
In this next bull run. So everyone says right?
Um, there's like a there's like a whole list of different narratives
Guys, if you can you can go check them out
You can see what we're talking about up here in the speaker panel, but in terms of narratives
Let's let's say this what applications?
Uh are like I guess the most let's let's say look at it in the future or look at it like right now
What what applications are going to be the most popular or are the most popular right now across different narratives?
So whether it's gaming whether it's ai
Whether it's uh, rwa's a real world assets or whatever it is and and yeah, let us know your thoughts
I think sorry i'm going ahead
Let me know if i'm if i'm getting people because I can't see who's speaking so don't hesitate to tell me uh someone had
A mute first. Um, but yeah, basically i'm all about gaming. Obviously, I think there's going to be a whole lot of narratives
But um, definitely the gaming ones is is going to be a big one for one simple reason. Um, it's been tried before it fails because
Gamers, we're just not ready for that and you can understand why it's all been focused on speculation
It's been focused about yeah, you're going to be a billionaire by buying some nfts and I think that all
Altogether just just not work with it. This just doesn't work with the uh, the gaming community
so interoperability and everything that's been said before, you know the the
evm compatibles and interoperability that you can do
With nfts and the fact that you can own your own collectibles and so on it's yes something that it's easy to understand easily easily
But the games that are going to be working and are going to be
I think successful over the next few months years
Are going to be those who are going to be able to put those elements in the background and going to be able to
Bridge the game design with with the technical, uh capacities of uh of the blockchains
So what I mean by that is actually having some active blockchain game design going on and not simply just say oh
I'm making a game and there's some nfts on top of that game
Which nobody really care about because let's face it when you're playing a game
You don't care whether it's an nft or if it's a server from your
Uh favorite game producer
But the the reason why we would do that and it would bring something to the players in if it's if it brings traceability
Path as gamer and then some interpretability between other games and also things that you can do that improves immersion like, you know
Higher stakes like being able to lose your nfts if you if you go in in hardcore, uh mode
These also will bridge with ai and and i'll stop with this because I think the future of gaming at some point is adaptable gaming
I think back in the days for the uh, the um people that are of my age and played all the mods from um
From half-life basically from from the unreal engine
You probably remember things like left 4 dead and left 4 dead was really clever in using ai already back then
So the game was adapting to the way you were playing
Um by making it harder if you were playing better and and vice versa
And I think once we bridge all of that together
so your traceability as as a as a gamer experience and the ai to actually tune the experience to the way you play
Bridge all that together in in a shared experience and why not some sort of metaverse in some ways
Then yeah, I think the future is gaming lie somewhere there and once people understand that
I think that's going to be the narrative that's going to be quite successful
I totally agree with sam there. I I think you know even adding on top of that
I don't think the responsibility that comes from you know
Finding ways to have different in-game assets be interoperable with each other or up or the responsibilities
Of these individual games. Um, I think the responsibility really comes down to chains themselves in the way that we develop these
You know blockchains in order to uh, you know offer very clear direct value towards gamers and gamers games as a whole
Um, you know i'm looking forward to seeing more, uh, you know standardization practices coming out for a model design for engine design things like that
Uh that allow you know blockchains like us to be able to go. Okay, we have you know, 20 different games on your chain
We have 20 different collections here
How can we allow different collection items to be able to be used an individual and other game experiences?
And how do we introduce more ecosystem-wide tools that provide, you know unique and exclusive value strictly towards the gaming niche?
I I think the future here is we're going to get more and more, uh, you know bogged down in the weeds on the niche
State of things and we're going to allow niche developments to really capture the market
Yeah, I think at Pulsar we're obviously super bullish on artists and creatives or athletes or anybody who has digital content
It's always been a super hard problem is how do you compensate artists music et cetera for art, right?
How do you compensate that and i'm still bullish. We're still bullish at Pulsar with the royalty model
I think last cycle didn't catch on the nft is there's a few and again shout out to solana that it looks like they're going
Reintegrate, uh royalties as part of the minting process
But allowing people to be paid for their unique contributions in this case artistic guys
That's a massive unlock and something that I think would would really be a game changer
So we're obviously as a company betting and making big moves on on that future
But I think it's a reality that might come to pass this cycle
Yeah, um, we've thanks for that
We've been doing some some research on on gamers recently
And we think a big narrative is going to be the combination of web 3 and ai on on anti-cheat
One cool thing that happened recently. I saw uh world coin
They announced that they'd they'd be working with e-sports players
Um on on essentially using an orb kind of like a hardware
Eye that you place in front of your computer like a webcam
That basically uses uh artificial intelligence. I believe
To to verify it uses both ai and web 3 using zero knowledge proofs
To essentially verify that the person is real. Uh, and and we've been doing some sentiment analysis on
Specifically, you know e-sports gaming and stuff and we're seeing that. Yeah, like uh, there's there's an increase in cheating
you know games like poker for example that makes money, uh and
And uh and gambling, you know, these these are things that online are already really suffering
Uh to ai bots, etc. And we think there's a real need for this kind of tech
That is super interesting right like
I've just thought of like a bunch of problems with that but at the same time like invasion of privacy. Um,
And like you've got an orb looking at you
Um, first of all, like, you know, where's where's the security around that? Like how does that actually connect to?
I guess the software that you're using
Does that bring like bring more like exposure to like your private life?
In terms of then like being able to cheat the orb. I feel like that would be
uh something that you could actually do with things like deep fake technology and
Just being a thing and hackers being able to move their way around that with even ar existing and whatnot
Like my mind's yelling a million miles an hour from like just stories that i've heard and things that i've read which I can't
Put exact technicals behind and I probably sound like an idiot to someone
It's actually that actually knows what they're talking about with this stuff, but that is like
Bizarre and and super interesting at the same time
Like, you know when I hear e-sports my ears prick up because like obviously, you know
Game and gladiators we we actually own the third best e-sports organization in the world
And so thinking about those guys like being on it on a central stage
I guess like in terms of when it's real competition and things like that
That's not something that it's like it's a lot harder to cheat, right?
Like you you you're actually watching people on a live on a stage at a venue in a location
Like i'm i'm sure that it'd be like impossible to sort of like
Go in and cheat and especially when you have different adjudicators there and things be surprised though. There's there's things
Gamers that get hacked that like for example, they've had mods
integrated into the mouse for them when they connected the mouse into the
Their computers they would get hacked. I mean they would they would start hacking. Oh, yeah
Like there's so many pro players that are getting exposed
like just like right because there's you know, there's so many different ways you can you can
You know execute some type of a mod or something and then just helps them with that like headshot
Like if you played, you know
I played csgo quite competitively like back in the day and just like
You would be surprised like it's in every game actually that there's there's there's if you search up on youtube
just search up pro players getting exposed and they're like in the actual thing and like
There's some people they think there are people like this security or I guess whatever
We'll like walk up try to like pull them away and like they'll like shuffle to grab whatever they have
That was like cheat or something like that. And yeah, just so embarrassing
I wasn't even aware of that
Um guys, I do know that there are some speakers having issues hearing other speakers
Which is a little bit unfortunate and i'm guessing that there'd be some listeners in the space as well
That'll be experiencing the same thing. So, sorry about that guys
But uh what we are gonna do I did say that at the start of the space we keep this one of the short ones
So we've had three four main questions which have been all answered spectacularly
Uh in true fashion of like what you guys are capable of and I love just having these conversations with you guys
So, uh, just because there is a little bit of that technical difficulty and plus I do have to go talking another space
We're gonna wrap it up here guys
I would love the speakers to sort of just maybe if you like just tell us about anything that
People can look forward to from things from the projects here that you represent and then we can just wrap it up right after that
poster.ai again is the site we're launching our pfp which gives you
Access to the site and is an nft with utility for the site
So very fitting with what we spoke about to get again today and shortly after there. We'll be launching our token

That was really good. Hey, thank you so much for having us
Yeah, I didn't say a ton either. Sorry guys. Y'all are too smart when you start talking about like token stuff
It's just like right above my head
but um what I have going on at the crypto recruiters, I need five companies and three contestants who are
Actively looking for jobs in the web3 space to come on like a show for prizes next wednesday
So if anybody's interested, it's going to be like a mock interview on stage. I think it's gonna be really fun
Just hit me in the dms. I'd love to have you. Bye. Thanks gaiman
Hey, thanks game for putting this together

Giving a follow to everyone up here on stage
If you're into racing games if nitro or something you want to check out head over to our website

No nfts or tokens or anything needed. It's open for any and everyone. So thanks again, man
And thanks for everyone that was up here. Great convo
Thanks for everyone for uh providing other great insights. Um, definitely gets a little very technical when we start getting like the you know
Um, so with mazmo we're going to be actually going to be launching probably one of the most
Uh advanced web 3 platforms, uh to the space using a abstraction cross chain. Um, we're building a lot of proprietary stuff here
Um, we're already 10 times better than any decks. I mean any centralized exchange five times better than any decks
Meant three times better than any wallet. Um
We're a seedless infrastructure. We will be including the first insurance ever on a non-custodial wallet
It's email password. You can recover it your family can recover it. Um
One click purchase any token from any exchange without any gas fees all stable coins
It'll have its own twitter discord coin market cap
Exchange, you know wallet everything built into it. Um, so yeah, we're looking to basically help onboard the
Mainstream media or not mainstream media mainstream market
When when that comes so if you want to join on the wait list, etc
I would love to you know, kind of share our pfp's
So so figuring out the pfp stuff, but we'll add some utility or whatever the community wants
I guess I'll go yeah. Yeah. Thanks for the invite guys. Um again work with blackball not gonna
Shield the project much but rather the event so we're going to be doing so if you guys are in paris

But yeah, thanks for your time all and have a great uh while evening in my case. I don't know for you guys. But uh, cheers
Damon thanks for having us uh some technical difficulties over here as well

Um, so thank you for having us on
um, you know listeners make sure to follow these guys you definitely know what they're talking about and uh
Yeah, we've got wallet intelligence as i'd mentioned going to be dropping within the next a couple weeks
And so something we're really excited about if you're a dap developer
Looking for more transparency to you know
uh uncover unknown player value across uh, you know your your users or looking to find
Um, you know your best customers in regards to wallets across the ecosystem. Uh, make sure to give us a ring
Thanks again for having us
Thanks for having us guys, uh great great talking to you all and thanks for the opportunity
