Full Transcription
Welcome aboard.
I now bring you our host, Die Revolution.
Good afternoon.
Happy Friday and welcome to the Community Communities Web 3 Space.
I hope everybody is well.
These weeks are flying by, it feels like, but definitely looking forward to tonight's space.
I've got a good feeling about this.
I think it's going to be awesome.
Definitely feeling excited about featuring Knuckle Bunnies and DeFi Space Donkeys.
We're just getting everyone up on stage now.
It does normally take a couple of minutes to get everyone in up on stage and everyone coming to join us.
But I do want to say a massive thank you to everyone that's joined already.
Thank you to everyone that shared out the space.
We appreciate you guys.
It's definitely going to be a great space tonight.
So thank you very much.
As always, I will introduce our co-hosts.
Then I'll introduce the rest of the team.
And then we will introduce our guests.
And I know our spaces are a little bit different to the spaces that most people are doing.
We like to try and do them a little differently for a multitude of reasons.
But we have two guests that we allow up to potentially 60 minutes per guest to break down their ecosystems,
their journey in Web 3, what it is that they're here for, their vision, them as a person and everything in between.
So without further ado, I will introduce our co-hosts who are just coming up on stage now.
First of all, we have the bacon sandwich.
How are we doing, Bacon?
All right, boys and girls.
How's it going?
How's it going?
How's your weekend so far?
I know it's only just started though.
Yeah, no, good.
It's good.
It's been a tough week.
But I think I've kind of overcome some hurdles in regards to career stuff.
So, yeah, really looking forward to Friday this week.
Really burnt out.
But here we are in my favourite place to be on a Friday night.
Let's go.
It's Friday again.
Famous quote.
Oh, and the quotes.
I've got a good quote.
Let's go.
Sorry, less ego and more let's go.
As said by Thy Revolution 2014.
Let's go.
I love it.
That's a great quote.
Whoever threw that one together, I like that.
I agree with that.
Yeah, who's that guy?
That ThyRevolution.Eth or something?
Yeah.
With a plus on his name.
Who's that geezer?
I've heard a lot about that post.
I'm going to have to look into that.
Great.
It's a great way to show togetherness.
We are sacrificing your profile picture or name.
I love it.
I think more people should take that one on board.
No, I'm just kidding.
How are we all doing?
We also have Tricky Buddha, who is our co-host and our guest for tonight.
So that should be an interesting one.
How are we doing, Tricky?
It's Tricky Buddha from Defy Space Donkeys.
Had to do it.
Had to do it.
I 100% didn't hear that about two and a half minutes ago when we joined the pre-space chat.
Right?
It's funny.
I got a call the other day and I was like, wait, do I do this?
No, no, no.
That's not the rules.
I only do it in social media things.
I don't do it on the phone.
All right, cool.
So, yeah.
But hey, those are the rules.
If that's not your voicemail, you need to fix that.
I guess I need to fix that.
My voicemail is like really normal.
People get it and then they don't leave a message because they're like, who's this Nick Lerman guy?
I have no idea.
Maybe I got the wrong number.
Yeah.
Nick Lerman.
I went, no, I wouldn't trust that guy.
But D5 is based on gears.
I'm like, this guy's going to land this plane safely.
I just know it.
But it starts off like really loud.
It's not like a buildup.
You know what I mean?
It's not like.
Yeah.
It's just impact straight away.
Definitely.
Definitely a Defcoms type situation going on there.
Yeah.
RIP headphone users.
Right?
Yeah.
Sorry.
Not sorry.
Can't help it.
I'm just happy to be here.
Good stuff.
Everyone retweet the room.
It's another Friday with the community of communities.
This is always a great space.
I have, I'm happy to see all the pluses, all the legends stopping through.
I see we got nobody down there.
Otis, Scion, Texas, Wolf.
Let's go.
Z3, Charlie, Trey.
Loving the PFP.
We got DeFi Space Donkeys account in the house.
I see Crypto Toe there.
We've got Dogman's Association and Knuckle Bunnies in the house.
Of course, our lovely co-host, The Bacon Sandwich and Thy Revolution.
Let's go, man.
Yo, how's everyone doing?
Crypto Toe, welcome, welcome, man.
It's good to see you.
Hopefully, you had a good week.
Tony, aka Crypto Toe.
Always working in the background, but he's here showing up.
Let's go.
Hey, hey.
Tony, I'm here.
Hey, buddy.
Hey, how are you doing?
Doing great, man.
I'm glad I didn't have to fill in for Tony this week.
That was quality last week.
Great impression.
It was pretty spot on.
He got that frequency just right.
Not guilty.
Yeah, some say that all Tonys across the world all emit the same frequency
and can just mimic each other perfectly.
But, yeah, I mean, I ring Tony about 400 times a day,
so I can definitely say that he's had a really terrible week,
and I'm glad I'm not him.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
It's like that orange cat.
You do like ringing me a lot.
It's kind of like orange cats.
They all kind of, like, share the same brain cells.
Well, I think with orange cats, they all share the same brain cell, singular.
But maybe Tony's has a little bit more connection, a little bit more capacity,
because our Tonys are really on point.
Just a little more.
Right.
Well, we got Doglins in here as well.
Yo, Doglins.
Christian from Stray Dogs Club, a.k.a.
Doglins Official, Shibu Society,
COC Master of Websites and Graphics.
How's it going, buddy?
How are you doing?
I'm all right.
Just chilling, relaxing.
While working, like a mad nutter.
That'll be what he says on his deathbed, that.
We love you, Christian, and we're going to miss you.
He's like, I'm all right.
I'm all right.
Yeah, I'm all right.
Don't worry.
Don't worry.
I'm all right.
I don't want flowers.
Don't give me flowers on my deathbed.
Can you record that?
Can we record that and put it in your will?
So that way, like, when your, like, caskets going down,
you just have it placed.
I'm all right.
I'm all right.
Just, um...
Don't buy me flowers.
Have a drink on me.
That's it.
All right.
You'll get the graphics on it.
When I'm gone.
Yeah.
Everyone's having drinks on Christian when he passes away,
thinking that he's covered the tab.
Yeah.
That's it.
Have a drink on me.
You've got to pay for yourself, though.
Then he might find out jokes on you.
Yeah.
Well, get on with it.
Come on.
Anyway, should we talk about Web3 or what?
Let's get on with it.
I guess we might as well.
All right.
We're here for it.
That's it.
Well, yeah.
We also have Knuckle Bunnies on stage as well.
We'll say a good hello and happy Friday to you guys, too.
How are we doing, gents?
Doing good.
How are you today?
We are doing well.
Thank you, sir.
I'm up here behind two accounts, farming some engagement,
see if we can get some more people in on catching both of our accounts.
I was looking on our main account today and did a little shadow ban test
because I wasn't seeing notifications from my other account.
And I don't know, maybe because we have the word death in our name.
I don't know.
So, anyway, I thought I'd pop both accounts in and say hello.
So, it's me on both fronts.
KB here.
Yeah, right.
Verified and shadow banned.
Thank you, Elon.
Yeah.
Got to love it, right?
Yes.
It's like, you know, death, it kind of is like as much a part of life as life.
So, you know, it's funny, isn't it, how it works?
Because it's supposed to be like a free platform, free speech,
but then it's, you know, showcased in the algorithm that, you know,
if you interact with shadow banned accounts or you say certain things
that you suppress, so how free is the speech?
So, basically, you're allowed to say it, but that's about it.
Yeah.
I mean, I don't envy his, I think, overall,
I got not too many bad things to say about Elon.
I think he's done an amazing thing for the space and for free speech in general.
You know, there's a lot of ins and outs and a lot of things that you got to figure out,
especially taking over some legacy code.
So, yeah, but it was kind of a, it was weird because I was like,
why am I not, I'm subscribed with notifications on to the Knuckle Bunny account.
Why do I not see it in my main account?
So, I was trying to, trying to work that out today.
But, at any rate, we're here and we're happy to be here.
Appreciate you having us.
Yeah.
Being on Twitter and being that this is a recorded space, I will say, I love Elon.
He's doing everything great.
And we're just going to move on with the space.
So, Knuckle Bunnies, welcome, welcome.
I appreciate you being here.
This is going to be epic.
I'm tagging some friends and sharing this out to some other spaces right now.
We've already got 11 retweets on the room.
So, get down there, tag some friends, let, you know, post a comment that's just to help the algorithm.
And, yeah, we're going to jump right on into it.
So, yeah, welcome, Knuckle Bunnies.
Let's pin something up top and hear like a little bit of introduction, who we got behind the account.
Just before we do, can I just mention, we've got KB trying to get on the stage here.
I've accepted his request.
It doesn't seem to be working.
I don't know if he needs to drop out and drop back in again in order to be able to get on the stage.
But, yeah, sorry.
I sent him a mic request, too, so we can try to get him up.
Yeah.
That's actually me.
So, I've got one account on my phone and one account on my computer.
The laptop one, for whatever reason, I've been noticing lately, it keeps getting kicked out of spaces.
Not kicked out, but dropped down for some reason.
So, yeah, KB here.
I'm rocking behind the Knuckle Bunny account today.
Awesome.
Awesome, awesome.
Well, KB, it's good to meet you.
Are you a fully doxed person in Web3, or are you just bloxed, blockchain documented?
Yeah, so just bloxed at this point.
Keeping it real, but keeping it on the low-pro crypto side, you know what I mean?
Gotcha, gotcha.
There's nothing wrong in that either.
I know that some people are always a little more dubious of people that haven't doxed themselves,
but we say absolutely nothing wrong with that.
There's a multitude of reasons why that may be the case.
And it's probably the safest way to use the internet, to be honest.
I mean, I think if we could all do that, then that would have been the preferable option.
Because I'm fully doxed.
I'm very vulnerable to a lot of things, as everyone can imagine.
So, yeah, fair play.
Yeah, I mean, I think it's important that people have freedom to kind of operate either side, right?
And I think that goes across the board.
I think when we're dealing with crypto and things of that nature, I mean, for me, obviously, within our team and key members,
we're all kind of open and doxed in that regard.
But, you know, when you're playing in the crypto space, as we all know, there are some nefarious characters out there,
and sometimes it's better to keep some of that stuff close to chest.
Yeah, everyone has different situations, you know.
You never know who's in protective custody or witness protection or has a crazy ex or, you know, you're just about to get rich and you don't want to be famous.
You never know.
You never know.
So, yeah, much love.
Good to know that, you know, still the DeFi world is out there and you use the word blocks.
So, you know, I'm happy because I kind of coined that phrase.
I was like, why don't we have a word for it?
I mean, that was a fresh term for me, but I figured, you know, I'll run with your vernacular on that.
I like it.
I appreciate going with it.
So what got you into Web3?
What brought you into the space?
So I'm an old school digital guy from way back.
I got a few years on most people in the space, likely.
I've been in digital media since sort of mid-90s, I think.
I built my first website around 93, somewhere around there.
So I've been playing around the space for a long time.
Had a digital agency for years that I've been running in Web2.
Did the whole dot-com thing back in the day when the whole dot-com craze was going on.
And we did the whole public company thing and had a massive development company back then.
Watched the rise and fall of that.
And have continued on with, you know, the digital agency side of things.
That's been my career pretty much my whole adult life.
And I'd been into crypto for, I don't know, for, you know, probably the last five, six years.
But I hadn't really jumped into the NFT space at all.
And we had a client, one of our clients in the agency was actually really heavy in the NFT space.
They actually had a publicly traded NFT investment company on the London Stock Exchange.
And we were doing a bunch of work for them.
And that kind of got me diving into the Web3 and NFT side of things and getting more familiar with that.
And sort of as I got my head around it and saw what it represented for digital creatives, I was like, man, this is it.
And, you know, it really reminded me a lot of, you know, the energy that was happening in and around the dot-com era.
You know, just like this crazy, irrational exuberance, tons of money getting raised, pump and dump, scammers, amazing innovation.
Like just all of this like crazy energy, right?
And so I wanted to, I learned best by doing.
So we wanted to jump in and, you know, dive in, make a bit of a pivot more into Web3.
And so that's sort of where Knuckle Bunnies kicked off.
It's something, you know, my kids are all very creative.
My oldest daughter is an amazingly talented comic artist.
And I've been in digital media, art and branding and design my whole career.
And we've been kicking around these ideas about, you know, punk rock, post-apocalyptic punk rock bunnies.
And we started sort of building out this idea around that.
And we decided to move forward with that and build a project around it.
One of the things I've always been big on is trying to teach, but not just teach,
but show my kids that anything that you can kind of think about and goals that you have, you can achieve,
but you just need to take steps towards that every day.
And so this is kind of a, was a working example of that, where we had an idea and brought it to fruition.
And a couple of years down the track now, we've got an amazing community behind us.
We've got a product launch as far as our NFT, as well as the physical products for our, you know, online shop and building a comic, all of that kind of stuff.
So that's kind of a rambling explanation of how we got to where we are today.
It's always a journey every time.
It's always a journey.
A hundred percent.
So, uh, who else do you have like on your team and how did you come together to really form, uh, knuckle bunnies?
It's knuckle bunny death squad.
Let me get the name right.
It's the knuckle bunny death squad.
Yeah.
So, uh, primarily the, you know, core main team, as far as the art side of things is myself and my daughter.
Um, also have, um, money bunny and cyber bunny that are working with, uh, us on the project from the, uh, agency side.
Um, they've been working with me for years there as well and, and bring a ton of value into the knuckle bunny world.
Uh, we've also got, uh, Dr. Green paths as our community manager.
Shelby is our lead mod.
Uh, we've got a bunch of other amazing community members that are also operating and helping us as, uh, mods.
We've got, uh, gob one, Nova Mark, uh, Taz devil, crypto sniper, bunch of, bunch of community members that have, have, you know, rallied around and, and help out with, uh, the mod side of things.
But as far as the primary, um, you know, key, uh, primary team members involved with, uh, art creation is myself and my daughter.
That's cool.
That's cool.
So how old is your daughter?
Did you say?
Yeah.
So she graduated high school about a year and a half ago and has been working with me full time and web three, uh, since.
So, uh, it's been, it's been really cool, uh, you know, watching her develop over the years.
I mean, she basically started treating art as a career when she was around 12.
She would basically draw all day, every day, uh, focus on, you know, learning color theory, you know, character design, all of that side of things.
And, uh, you know, so that was, I was also part of, you know, forming up the project.
Um, you know, it was around two years ago, probably a little over two years ago when we first got started and around that time there was projects popping off left and right.
And a lot of cut and paste roadmaps and everyone trying to, um, you know, what's your utility, what's your utility.
And for, for, for us, I really want to just focus this around stuff that we were passionate about, that we enjoyed doing, uh, and, and use that as sort of the driving force of the project.
And so we decided early on that, uh, we were going to focus on art as utility.
Um, and that was going to be, you know, what we are, we're, we're an art project, art and lore, uh, project, basically developing the IP around the knuckle bunny death squad, which is, uh, a group of post-apocalyptic punk rock rabbits living in a city called the burrows.
Um, and, uh, so we've been building out the lore around that and, and, uh, having a lot of fun with that.
We're currently working on a comic, uh, uh, we've got a number of comics planned, like a series planned for this, but, uh, working on our first comic at the moment.
And, uh, yeah, that's kind of where it all sort of kicked off.
That's cool.
It's, it's fun to see, uh, family teams, you know, uh, you know, you can trust someone if they're on your family team, you know, you got a little better communication.
Usually, you know, it takes a little bit of the ambiguity out of it.
Sometimes with web three, you know, you get people in different time zones and it can be harder to coordinate a team.
So, but that's cool.
Yeah, no, it's, it's been good.
And I figure, you know, anytime that you've got, uh, the opportunity for your teenage kid to be willing to spend time with you, it's a, it's a good thing.
So, yeah, it's, it's been great.
Um, working, working together with her and the rest of the team as well, building this out.
Um, you know, they, the knuckle bunnies is, you know, there, there's so many directions that, uh, you know, we can take this, but, you know, effectively IP, uh, building out the story, uh, the boroughs kind of consists of seven different boroughs, each of which have their own unique flavor.
We've got that motor city borough, which is like the mobsters, rockers, bikers, cholos.
We've got city gardens, which is our four 20 bunnies.
So that's all the Rastas, skate punks, hippies, uh, neon row borough with our cyberpunk, alien and disco raver, robo bunnies.
We've got Jabberjaw with the hooligans, steam town as our steampunk bunnies, uh, and then the underground, which is, uh, the goths, punks, hipsters, glams.
So we've got, uh, a wide range of stuff.
Um, we did our, we launched our first collection in September, uh, I guess a year and a half ago.
Um, and, uh, we were pretty stoked about being able to sell that out inside of 24 hours in, uh, in the depths of the bear market.
Um, that was kind of the initial foray launch, uh, for, for our collections.
And then we did, uh, we've done a number of, a bunch of other collections since then, but, uh, two primary collections.
So that would be the OG, which is sort of the keys to the borough.
Uh, and then last year we did our year of the rabbit collection, um, which was a little bit more, um, leaning towards sort of the comic style that we're working with, with, uh, the comics and stuff.
And then in addition to that, we've done, um, a number of other collections.
We did an art, art drop for our OG holders shortly after our first mint, um, you know, being art as utility.
We were always kind of focusing on trying to put, elevate art in the Solana space and put cool art in our, in our holders' wallets.
Um, we got a pretty diehard community of collectors and, uh, it's always cool getting new stuff out there.
Um, we've built out a whole bunch of lore around the, uh, the Knuckle Bunnies.
Um, you can kind of check all of that out as well as some of our other work on our website, which is at, uh, knucklebunnydeathsquad.com.
Um, um, and then in addition to the Knuckle Bunnies, we're, we're, you know, we're also operating as a, uh, art and design studio offering services to the, uh, Web3 space.
So we've done full collection art for a bunch of other projects.
We did the Baltics DAO, um, art, uh, their Gen 1.
We did a full replacement art collection for them.
We did the Soul City Poker Club Gen 2 art.
Um, recently we did the Degenerate Tiger Federation, which, uh, we're just waiting on that still to get revealed, but, uh, that's still, that's currently still minting.
Um, what else?
We did a collection for Valhalla Labs, uh, Trip and Ape Tribe, which, uh, has yet to get launched.
And then most recently we did the, uh, the Nobody Collection.
I think we've probably got a few Nobodies in the room here today.
So, uh, the Nobody Collection is, uh, uh, part of a project that we're also intimately involved with.
Um, I'm one of the founders of that with, uh, Echelon from Eagleverse.
Um, and, uh, we just dropped that collection.
And that one sold out real fast as well, which was super cool to see.
Uh, my daughter did all the, uh, character design on that.
And we collaborated working on, uh, getting that collection out there.
Um, that's in support of the Nobody Token, which is, uh, a token that was, uh, launched in conjunction with 15 other projects in Web3.
That all came together to put the initial LP together for that, uh, and then we're just, you know, forging ahead with that.
Each of the projects involved is all bringing their own communities and utilities, uh, to bear on, on Nobody.
And, uh, you know, kind of similar to what you guys are doing with this community of communities is, you know, really focusing on building a network of communities that are supporting each other in the Solana space.
I think it's, you know, massively important that we do that.
Uh, I've seen, you know, we've all seen a lot of phases, uh, in Web3.
Um, I'm a big, big proponent of collaboration over competition.
And I think whenever we can be lifting each other up and helping support each other, um, build stronger projects, stronger communities, it helps the space as a whole.
So that's something that we're very closely tied to as, as Knuckle Bunny Death Squad and the, uh, Nobody community.
Um, there's, uh, you know, obviously a lot of synergy in there and a lot of synergy with, uh, the, the other projects involved.
I mean, basically it came together, uh, from different projects that we'd all been palling around with, uh, over the last couple of years, gotten to know, um, gotten to know founders, uh, and, and it's communities that, and projects.
That have been building throughout the bear, maybe not getting the recognition or hype of some of the other projects, but are here and, you know, represent a ton of experience.
When you think about that, you know, 15 projects that have, you know, made it through the bear, been grinding for the last two years.
It's a lot of, uh, a lot of experience on what works, what doesn't work.
And, and, you know, I think everybody bringing that, uh, bringing that to bear for nobody is, uh, something that makes a pretty cool, uh, situation.
Yeah, absolutely.
It's awesome being able to build with people who you've known now for like a year or two years.
I mean, that's why I'm really pumped about the community of communities because we met on TikTok like three years ago.
You know what I mean?
And we've, we've been building here together.
So seeing people here building through the bear and then coming out of it on the other side, that's, that's what's up.
That's really cool.
And, you know, now we're meeting people in person and, you know, doing all these collabs.
It's just amazing.
Um, yeah, I mean, it's, it's cool, especially, you know, now we're getting into the, uh, we're, we're getting into crypto Christmas, Christmas season.
I always say crypto Christmas comes every four years and, uh, it's Christmas Eve.
So we're, you know, people are starting to have fun, uh, you know, things are a lot more green days and, uh, you know, everything's pumping.
So, yeah, it's, it's, uh, you know, it's been, it's been great too, because with, with E and his connections, uh, he's, he's got a group.
He's got a group of projects that he's been, um, working with, I'm familiar with, I do as well.
And so now those two groups are coming together.
Uh, we're meeting a lot of other projects.
So, you know, I think it's, it's, uh, I think that's one of the cool things I find about the Solana space is, you know, there's, there's a lot of hardworking people, um, that, that are trying to, trying to build cool shit.
And, and, and help support each other.
Uh, and I think it's, uh, it's, it's something, I don't know.
It's something, yeah, I don't know.
I I've spent some time on the East side, but I think, uh, you know, I'm, I'm a bit of a Solana maxi myself.
So there is something with Solana, you know, despite its shortcomings and, you know, it's, it's outages and stuff like that.
The community is there and the community is real on Solana, you know?
Yeah.
A hundred percent.
Yeah.
I was going to, I'm glad you said that because I was thinking about that, you know, cause I worked for a while put off Solana just due to its, um, shortcomings.
But then the more communities that we met that was utilizing the Solana, uh, network, the more I thought that it doesn't really matter what happens with the blockchain itself.
When you've got a community that's so diehard and so well put together and so supportive because, um, you know, a good community can overcome it.
Um, even if they move around together somewhere else that once you've got that, that solidarity and that togetherness, it's, it's just unbreakable.
Um, I mean, I've seen, I've seen something miraculous just in the last couple of days with Serenity Shield.
Um, they, they suffered, um, a breach in security, um, which is really surprising, really surprising.
Um, and you know, the, the, the community are united, they're together, they're, they're like, they're, they're backing each other.
There's no like nastiness or like, oh, you know, WTF and all this sort of stuff that they're, they're really rallying around the team and the community.
And it's, it's fantastic to see.
Um, yeah, I mean, I think soul's been through some, some rough stuff.
I mean, I think the, the FTX, uh, thing obviously had a pretty substantial impact on, on soul's price.
I think we've seen an amazing rebound from that, but like when, when we were first starting the project, I was looking at, you know, are we going to, are we going to launch on ETH?
Are we going to launch on soul?
Um, one of the things that was interesting, my daughter being an artist and in a bunch of art communities, um, she had a little bit of, um, she, she was a little hesitant to get involved on the NFT side of things initially, just because of the sentiment that existed within her art communities.
And there was, I think, largely due to, um, ignorance, uh, about what the NFT space was all about.
Um, but, you know, concerns there around copyright infringement around, you know, uh, eco impact, all of these sorts of things.
And, and, you know, one of the big ones, obviously being the, you know, Oh, what's bad for the environment.
Um, when we started looking at ETH versus soul, I mean, you look at soul and, and it's, it's energy footprint is, is negligible by comparison.
And it's, it's so fast.
The transactions are cheap, uh, the proof of history versus the proof of work.
Um, you know, just a lot of, uh, a lot of pluses as far as I was concerned.
Plus also being, you know, having a background in web two development, I found it pretty easy to, to jump in and start doing stuff on the soul side of things.
And so that was kind of what helped form artists or, you know, decision around going on soul.
But over the course of, you know, the, the last few years, I mean, I remember, you know, when soul first came out, I bought soul at like 28 bucks.
And I was like, okay, well, let's see where this goes.
And then it ran all the way up to what, 269, something like that.
Um, you look at what happened over the course of this last, 369 is what it topped out at very, very peak.
If you had like, you know, only play 0.1 soul sold at that point, but yeah, yeah.
Three, it was three something.
369.
Yeah.
I thought it was, I thought it was two six, two 68, two 69 all time high for soul.
But, uh, either way, I mean, it, it went, it went and, uh, and then you look at what happened since last bull run in soul, right?
The amount of development, uh, that's happened.
Um, you've got, uh, the Solana phone, you've got a bunch of sort of mainstream big partnerships going on across, you know, whether it's Google or the credit card companies.
Um, you know, I, I think when you track the growth of development and, and community in Solana and compare against ETH, I think, you know, I think soul is doing pretty good.
So I'm, I'm real keen to see what we do this bull run with a soul price, but, uh, yeah, I'm definitely bullish on soul.
I'm bullish on the soul community in general as well.
Yeah, very much, very much.
So I got a, we have a couple of good friends on soul and it's nice to see everyone building over there.
It's definitely good, cheap gas fees.
That's the, that's definitely the, yeah.
Are you guys primarily in ETH side or where, where are you at?
Um, we do stuff on Polygon, ETH.
We're all over the place.
Yeah, we're all over the place.
Chia, mainnet Z soon, I'm dropping.
But wait, what were you going to say, Rev?
I would say we're normally going towards, uh, Polygon, generally speaking, I think, uh, for the, for the most part.
Nice.
You guys get in on the, uh, the okay dogs, uh, mint?
No, I didn't personally.
I don't know if anyone else did.
No, we missed that.
Not aware.
We have to get them in the community.
Yeah.
Well, that was, uh, it's okay bears, which is a, one of the, you know, OG big Solana projects, kind of one of the soul blue chips.
Um, they've recently released the okay dogs on ETH.
Um, so that's kind of their, uh, chain crossover collection that they just launched.
So, uh, be interesting to see.
Apparently that's, so they, the mint was for artifacts and then the artifacts are getting revealed today.
I believe a little later on today is, uh, the reveal for those.
So it'll be interesting to see how that goes.
But, uh, yeah, it's been interesting to see some of the projects that started on Sol kind of branching out into other chains.
We saw that happen with the gods moving over to, uh, to ETH, um, and, and Utes on Polygon.
So, yeah, it'll be, be interesting to see what happens with the, with the dogs.
But, uh, you know, I'm not, I'm not, uh, um, I'm not in any way, shape or form, um, just locked in on Sol.
I just tend to like Sol, uh, personally and, and for our project, but, uh, yeah.
Yeah, that's kind of what we're like, you know, I love all the different blockchains for all the different benefits that, and, and that they bring in the different communities on different blockchains.
Um, and it's great that we can also be, um, interoperable as well.
Um, it sort of, it sort of allows people to fall where they want to be, but also enjoy everywhere else as well.
Um, you know, cause it is, I think cause there's a lot of people that will like, you know, like for example, like a Sol Maxi, which is awesome.
Um, but it doesn't mean you have to be against ETH at the same time, you know what I mean?
You can sort of just prefer one and use it and enjoy it, um, and not want to use other blockchains for the, for the negatives that they bring.
Um, but I was just going to go back to when he was talking about the, um, your artwork, if that's all right.
Because, I mean, I might upset a few people when I say this, but I think that the Knuckle Bunny Death Squad artwork is in a league of its own.
Um, um, it's outstanding, like league of its own, top tier.
I can totally see, and I'm so glad that other block, other community, um, other projects are able to utilize artwork created by you and your daughter, because it is phenomenal.
It's honestly top tier.
I absolutely love it.
I appreciate that.
Yeah.
I mean, it, we have a lot of fun with it.
I think, you know, for, for me kind of coming from a agency background and, and branding has always been something that I've been, you know, just really enjoyed doing and developing for, for a client side of stuff.
But, you know, bring, coming into web three for me, you know, you, you can only build so many real estate websites before you want to start bashing your head against the wall.
And, you know, you, you, you work on, uh, you know, and, and God bless them, love all our clients.
Um, but, uh, you know, I think web three and coming into this space, uh, for me really sort of helped reignite some of that creativity and some of the stuff that, uh, you know, inspired me from the beginning.
I went to film school, um, in the, in the mid nineties for 3d animation, uh, back in the day and, uh, sort of got my first start on, on things there.
And then sort of got into doing the, uh, web design stuff and built it out from there, but coming back and coming into web three and just being able to really free flow with creativity and have a lot of fun on that side of things.
And, and, and the fact that it, you know, married so well with, with my daughter's interests and skills and talents, um, yeah, it's, it's been awesome.
And I think, so just bringing that, um, you know, bringing that level of professionality to what we do, um, is, is always been important for me.
You know, we spend a great deal of time making sure that everything that we put out, uh, looks as good as it can be is super tight, um, clean.
And, and yeah, I mean, it, it, it's, it's a lot of fun.
Um, you know, when you, when you get to do stuff that you love doing on a daily basis, uh, it, it ceases to become work.
Yeah.
I couldn't agree more to that.
So with the comics, um, we had, uh, crypto comics.com come and chat for, I think it was, uh, a bit hour and a half at the end.
Um, and, uh, we, we really enjoyed their company and we're friends with, with people that have utilized their website and stuff before.
Um, so if you look to crypto comics.com, cause if not, we can, you know, link you up with the guys and you got, you guys can have a chat.
Yeah, definitely.
I'd love to, I'm always open to, uh, making new contacts and connections.
We'd love to, love to speak with them as, as well, for sure.
Um, you know, our plan is to do both digital and print versions of the comics.
Um, uh, we, we've, uh, we've been to a few comic cons along the way in various places.
And, uh, you know, that's something that we've always thought would be really cool, um, for, for us to be able to, uh, set up shop and have a, have a booth at, uh, at, uh, you know, one of the, whether it's local comic cons or, you know, um, in general, uh, to represent knuckle bunny death squad.
So that's something that we definitely, uh, are going to be doing is, is a print version of the comic.
Uh, obviously we'll have, um, the digital versions as well, but, uh, yeah, that'd be, that'd be great.
We'd love to, uh, get a contact there.
Yeah.
Well, I think with booths though, I think, I think booths are overrated.
You'd be far better off buying a bunch of tickets and giving it to a bunch of your mates to all wear the same t-shirt.
Um, it will have a far bigger impact than, than a booth.
Yeah, well, it's funny cause my youngest daughter is, uh, she's right into costume making.
And, and so that's one of the things that, uh, you know, she does, she's, she's 13, but she's just made some amazing, she gets on the sewing machines, just made some amazing characters, uh, you know, like full mascot style characters.
And so that's one of the things as well, uh, she's working on, we're going to do like the full knuckle bunny character, all punked out rabbit, uh, to show up at the, uh, at the events with.
So, yeah, I, I totally agree.
Like, you know, getting, getting people out there.
I mean, we've got a, a merch line as well that, uh, we've done, which, uh, there's been a lot of fun to work on.
Um, so we always, you know, we're always out there rocking the knuckle bunny gear.
Not very creative gene in you, aren't you?
I love that.
Um, it sounds like creativity just seems to like prosper in your household.
I love it.
I think it's amazing that your children are able to, to not only get involved, but be very skilled as well.
And you're able to not only live what you're passionate about, but monetize it, um, and, and collaborate with, with your, with your family.
I think that is, that is incredible.
That, to me, that is, if I was, I would bet money on your success just because of the way that you've built the foundations of everything that you're trying to accomplish.
Yeah, I appreciate that.
I mean, I think for me, my whole career has kind of been the pursuit of, of art and commerce, right.
That, that marriage, right.
And, and sort of wanting to be able to figure out, you know, ways to, to utilize things that were, you know, uh, that, that we have as skills and passions, uh, and, and to actually, you know, break that starving artist mold.
And so I, I think, you know, for, for me being able to take my background and experience in, in agency side and, and sort of work with my kids to, um, help them understand, you know, the business aspect of, of art, uh, has, has been really cool.
Uh, I think, you know, there's, there's so many opportunities out there really, you know, for us, you know, a lot of this project kind of kicked off, um, you know, during the early COVID days.
Uh, and so there was a lot of time at home, uh, we grabbed a couple extra iPads and, and just got crazy.
I mean, one of the things I did, uh, early in COVID, I, I used to do a lot of, um, what I like to call public art, uh, uh, involving spray cans and the like.
And, and so I, you know, I ordered up a whole whack of, um, uh, spray paints, uh, and, uh, you know, got, got going with, with having some fun with graffiti again.
So my, my fence, my backyard fences are just like completely covered, uh, and all these pieces that, you know, we did over the, over the course of, uh, COVID just having fun with that and, uh, getting, getting just, you know, it was really sort of a time to, you know, where we started getting back into like really getting creative and having fun with things.
And, and that's kind of where we got things going with knuckle bunnies and, and it's kind of proceeded from there.
But, uh, yeah, always been a big, uh, fan of providing my kids with opportunity.
Um, you know, you don't have to have, uh, lots of stuff, but if you have lots of opportunity to try lots of different things, uh, and, uh, and then the things that, that you excel at or are interested in, then let's push that further.
Right. And so that's kind of been part of how we've done things around the project and just in general.
Yeah.
But sorry, come on back then.
Uh, so there's, there's a guy in our community called, uh, rescue London and, uh, he, uh, does a lot of street art and, um, I drive a lot around London and there's some great pieces of street art, um, all over the place, uh, especially around the areas that I'm driving in London.
Um, so I, I, I really appreciate that sort of stuff.
Um, and yeah, some of his artwork is, uh, is, is crazy good.
And his project is, is built around, uh, trying to help feed people that can't afford to feed themselves.
That's cool.
Yeah.
I mean, my, a lot of what the, the knuckle bunny style represents is, is sort of stuff that, uh, you know, I, I was, uh, big into when I was younger.
The graffiti scene, punk rock skateboarding, um, you know, just all of those different influences, uh, motorcycle culture as I got a little older.
Now I'm, uh, I'm, I'm more in the biker side of things, but, you know, all of these influences sort of, um, bleed into, you know, the style of art that, that we're doing.
And, and, uh, yeah, it's, it's just been a lot of fun and been a lot of fun, um, working with my daughter and, and, uh, the rest of the crew on putting this all together.
And, and just, you know, one of the great things about web three is the opportunity to, to meet people all over the world that are all pursuing different creative, uh, and, and innovation, uh, pursuits.
Right.
And, and, you know, there's never been a time in history as well, where, um, artists and creatives have the ability to monetize, uh, their work and to be able to make a living off of, of doing art in the same way that you can right now.
And I, I think just, you know, this, this point in time, it, it was also for me really important to get my kids literate on crypto on sort of what this new decentralized economy means, how it works.
Um, that's another part of, of, of sort of what we do with, um, KBDS.
We've got a sub DAO kind of spinoff project called crypto crew, uh, which is comprised of a bunch of, uh, the KBDS holders.
And we did a small collection, uh, a hundred piece collection, a hundred bucks us a piece.
And all of the funds raised from that went into building a crypto portfolio.
And then, you know, we kind of meet every week.
We've got a weekly space on Wednesdays, uh, that we do for that.
And just talk about what's going on crypto, um, you know, sort of a learning space around, um, DeFi trading, all of that side of things as well.
And, and so that's, you know, been something for me with my kids that, you know, I've been, you know, trying to, to drill into them as well as, is, you know, understanding how that, how this decentralized economy works.
Um, and, uh, yeah, I, it's really cool, uh, seeing them come up, understanding and, and being involved in that side of it also.
See, that's, and that's what makes it brilliant, I think.
Um, and I know I throw a lot of flowers out there, but there is good reason, um, because a lot of things come from a very small, small, a few small things.
For example, like just your open mind and your character is enabling your children to blossom into the people that they're becoming with the skills that they've got.
Because you're willing to be open-minded enough to go and experience things that most people would just shrug off as, as, as worthless or wouldn't even entertain.
Um, and we don't know, like everything, just think of all the things that have come of the ecosystem that you're building and the people you've connected with and the artwork that you've created and the things that you've created with your family and your daughters and with how their minds and, and their horizons have been broadened due to this.
You know what I mean? And I think that hadn't you had that character and open mind and, uh, the personality that you've obviously adopted throughout your life, that, that none of these things would exist for them.
And they would just be getting a job and getting a salary and that's it. You know what I mean? Maybe trying to get a house and, or whatever, you know what I mean?
But you've really let them realize that the whole globe is there for the taking. Um, and I just think that that's kind of incredible.
Yeah. I mean, for me, I, I've, I, I realized early on that I, I didn't work well for others. And, uh, so I've pretty much worked for myself my entire adult, adult life, uh, outside of, you know, some, some jobs that a lot of people have when they're younger and restaurants and so forth.
But, uh, you know, getting past that, I, I, you know, I really enjoyed being able to do what I wanted to do. And, um, you know, and I, I think when, when you're also as a young person forced to make a decision between, you know, do I, you know, toe the line and, and clock, punch the clock every day and, and, you know, make that my life, or do I put some risk on the line and pursue stuff that I'm interested in?
Um, you know, that was kind of the, the path I chose. And, you know, I, I think I, I learned a lot of things. I made a lot of mistakes. Um, you know, and these are all things that, you know, as a parent, you want to, you know, try and give your, your kids opportunity to have as many experiences as they can.
But you also want to ideally, uh, help them avoid some of the mistakes you've made in the past and, and, uh, um, you know, fast track them on, on some of the success side of things as well.
So it's been a lot of fun for me as, as a parent, being able to, you know, watch my kids grow up and, and see their interests. And, you know, they're all different. They're all in different things. And my oldest son is, you know, he's all about driving. He's a drift car driver. He drives truck professionally. Um, you know, he's a little bit more risk adverse, so he's not as big on the crypto side of things, but at the same time, he's a creative as well.
He's a videographer and, um, photographer does all that side of things. So, you know, really just looking at, you know, where your kids' interests lie and, and trying to help encourage and foster that. And, you know, and for me, like I've always been entrepreneurial, so I'm always looking at things from an angle of, okay, so I love doing this. Can I make money at it? And then, you know, what's that formula? How do you figure it out? Um, you know, and so that's been kind of fun to sort of help them sort of adapt some of those mindsets as well around what they're doing.
Yeah. And now you're doing that for your community as well. Um, as you can start with the, uh, you know, the initiative you've just talked about where you've, uh, you know, created a hundred piece collection and started off a portfolio.
So I think that, you know, that's why I was kind of, I was asking, cause it's brilliant that that's the way you're looking at it because that's the way we all need to be. Um, and it must feel good as well.
Sort of, you know, always going against the grain a bit, if you will. Um, and just sort of being, and I said this to, um, to Echelon about just being unapologetically you because that's your superpower, you know, because no one else can do that better than you can.
And I think it's been so underrated for people to not be who God blessed them to be, you know? So it's great when I come across people like you that will just do the things that you want to do the way you want to do them, but are still a respectful person that wants to do it the right way.
And, and you want to raise your children, right? Where you obviously want them to aim for opportunity the way that you did help them sort of learn the mistakes that you made without controlling them too much and restricting their creativity, you know?
And so it's great to hear that you're, uh, that you've got great fathering skills in that sense. And you sort of adding that into the community that you've built and the project that you're creating as well. So yeah, huge respect for that.
Yeah. I appreciate that. I mean, I think for, you know, with, with everything, like for my experience, like I bring, I kind of come at things from my angle. Like I, I been in web three for about two years. I know there's people that have been in it much longer. Um, when we were putting the project together, uh, maybe we didn't follow what everybody else was doing, but I did it kind of based on my background and experience.
And I think that sort of helped us sort of form our own culture around things, but I'm also a big, big, big proponent of doing things right. You know, and when you, uh, run a business the right way, when you are working with your team members, the right way, when you're approaching your work product, whether that's art or whatever it is, um, you know, from a professional standpoint, then that tends to show, uh, across the board.
And, and, and, you know, I'm, I'm, I'm super proud of, of what we've built with, with knuckle bunnies, the relationships that we've made, the community that we've grown. I mean, our community is amazing. Um, we've got, you know, a really wide range of demographics represented in our, in our community. Uh, we've got young people all the way up to grandparents that have been into crypto for, you know, four or five, six years. Um, and, and it's, it's just been really cool getting to know these people, uh, over the, over the years.
The last couple of years and, and continuing to meet, uh, you know, new people through things like, uh, um, the nobody initiative and, and crypto crew. Uh, yeah, it's, and, you know, that's how we bumped into you guys. Right. So it's, it's awesome.
Yeah, that is awesome. And, uh, that's the great part about web three, like you said earlier, you know, there's that global attribute to it. And that's what we love about it is that you can just, there's no limit to who you can reach. Um, and that's why we,
you kind of really vibe with the, you know, the mindset of, of multiple communities all working together to lift each other up because we can make this industry even better than it already is despite creating an environment that everyone can enjoy being in, you know, because no one was harmed helping anyone else. You know, it wasn't like one project supported another one and then lost, lost something as, as a result. You know, we all just become stronger and more connected and like, you know, like doing these spaces, the amount of time, if I had a pound for every time,
two projects linked up on the back end, we'd be millionaires, you know, and we love that, that, that is possible for just being passionate enough to do what we do. And, uh, and it just, it's great to see these projects continuing on and prospering and, you know, showing love to each other. So yeah, we, we completely vibe with that. It's awesome.
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's, that's how me and he connected, um, see you down in the room there today.
What's up E? Um, yeah, we, we, we hooked up through other projects and in spaces. I mean, I've got a wallet full of, uh, NFTs from, you know, all the spaces that I've been in. I end up, you know, minting and, and, uh, picking up NFTs at different projects. That's always something that, uh, you know, I've always appreciated when, you know, I've been in a space with people and they're like, yeah, we just grabbed some of yours. And I'm like, awesome. And, and, you know, I always like to try and do the same. And, and so, yeah, I mean, you, you end up meeting so many different
people, uh, the result of, of running into E and, and being in some spaces with him, uh, we got connected and, and, you know, now we're down the track with, with nobody. And, and that's been another really fun thing to be involved with and, and, uh, opportunity to kind of, again, just grow the network and, and help support other projects. You know, we're, uh, between, you know, what KBDS is doing, what Eagleverse is doing. We've got, uh, Mr. Fun Guy from Clubhouse.
and rejected, um, and rejected, um, involved as well. And so, you know, doing all kinds of different cool partnerships and initiatives back and forth between all the different projects, um, and seeing the nobody token getting utilized throughout all these different, uh, communities, you know, it's, it's been, uh, it's been pretty cool. Great learning experience and, and, uh, a great opportunity to, again, just like, you know, grow our networks and, and help support each other.
Yeah, well said, um, and yeah, massive shout out to E and, uh, nobody community and talking and everything that they're doing as well.
Cause, you know, they've got a great, a great community and also host phenomenal spaces as well.
Always keeping it real and, uh, making sure that the people who are building are doing things the right way, that they're looking at things from the right angles.
And, uh, you know, people are learning from, cause this is more than what people see it as, you know, this, this industry is so deep, the tech runs so deep and it's, it's great that you can, you can sort of vibe with it on whatever layer you're comfortable with.
But, you know, the deeper layers that you, you get involved with, the more serious it gets.
And I think most people don't really see it that way until people humble them, uh, as, as a polite way of putting it, you know, um, because as you build a project and it becomes a brand and then people get invested and then communities grow around it.
And, you know, then it becomes a more serious endeavor that people need to understand how business works and how networking works and branding and how you conduct yourself and how you take care of your community.
And it, it, it becomes a more serious thing.
Um, but it's great when a multitude of different communities can enjoy each other.
Um, when, you know, we, like, like you said, with your wallet full of lots of different projects, NFTs, you know, everyone's the same.
And if you've got two projects that you really vibe with and they collaborate, it just adds to the excitement and to the hype of everything.
It doesn't split the hype in two when you think, oh, well, now I only have to, I can only vibe with one project.
You know what I mean?
So it's the whole mindset around that is different.
Um, and I, and I think that it's brilliant.
And I think that's what's made the NFT side of the space so powerful is that, is that urge for collaboration over competition.
And, uh, yeah, yeah, doing, following that mindset is really made all the difference.
A hundred percent.
I mean, I think that's, you know, that, that's one of the key reasons why, I mean, he hit it off.
Um, I think we both have that same mentality about wanting to do things right, uh, about supporting other projects.
Um, I think when you surround yourself by good people who are not afraid of working hard, you can achieve some amazing things, you know, and, and with nobody, um,
that kind of came about in, in the time when there's crazy meme coins popping off left and right.
And, um, you know, the whole concept behind nobody was to, to do something that was bigger than a meme coin that had a community behind it, that had a bunch of utility behind it.
And that was built to last.
Right.
And so you see so many of these meme coins have this, you know, big pump and then they drag the floor.
Um, you know, what we've seen on the nobody chart is, is, you know, some nice organic growth over time.
Um, um, a ton of time was spent figuring out the tokenomics on this, um, me and Eve and, and fungi and T money, um, worked a lot of hours on, you know,
trying to work out a, a tokenomic structure that would, you know, be able to be sustainable.
Uh, and I think, you know, that that's been born out over, over time here where, you know, we're over a half a million market cap now, over a hundred K TBL, um, and, and growing.
And we've got, you know, a bunch of utilities that are just continuing to get added to it as, as different projects start integrating it and using it in different ways.
So that's been a lot of fun.
It's been a lot of fun, you know, kind of, you know, it's for, for me, first token launch, uh, I think for E as well, but, uh, as far as like a, an LP based token, um, you know,
but, uh, we, we've been able to work with a lot of people that have great experience.
And, and I think that's, again, the power of it is, you know, when you look at, um, you know, the experience that I bring, the experience that he brings,
the experience that all the other founders, um, have both in their IRL stuff, but also in web three, uh, makes for a pretty powerful combination.
Yeah.
Yeah. And, and, and, and first of all, like the, the success of all of that is not only phenomenal and well done to you guys for the opportunity to get it to where it needed to be.
Um, but also if the blockchain is utilized correctly, um, we, we don't ever have to know who you are, um, because the blockchain never lies and you can check everything to make sure it is.
It is built correctly in a way that you can trust it, you know? Um, and I think that that's the beautiful part about it is that once people learn how to do those checks and make sure that they know what they're looking at or how to find, um, things that are, are ill just that they can, that they can get the answers they need to without knowing who you are, because that doesn't change whether people are going to play, play the game correctly.
You know, I mean, let's just look at Sam Bankman Freed. We all know who he was and, uh, that didn't stop him doing what he did. You know, no, no, was I able to do anything about it either. You know, you know, knowing his name didn't stop him doing what he did.
Well, that's it. Right. And I think every time something like that happens, it's a bit of a black eye for, you know, the, the crypto side of things in general. I think for me, that's, that's why it's always been important to do things correctly and work with people that have that same mindset about things.
I think that the more that, um, all of us as a web three community, regardless of what chain you're on, um, treat this stuff with the respect with which it's due. I mean, we're, we're looking at, you know, we're, we're, we're, we're on the frontier here, basically building a new, uh, financial structure. Right. And when you think about what, uh, DeFi and blockchain tech represents, you know, we call it web three. Uh, I've been around since, uh, pre web one pre Google day.
Online. Um, you know, so we call it web three now, but effectively it's just web, right. Uh, it's just web ushered in, you know, ushering in the, the new tech stack, uh, and the new technology, uh, for, for the, for the future here. Right. And so I think as we're all moving towards looking at bigger adoption and more mainstream adoption of blockchain technology, whether that be, uh, in business application or the financial structure or whatever, um,
the more we all operate as, as proper entities in the space and, and are focused around building proper things in the space and doing it the right way and being accountable and, and spending time figuring things out that, that need to have thought put in on it, that the better it is for the spaces as a whole.
So with that being said, I mean, one of the amazing things about web three is you could do that and you can do things right. And you can have a ton of fun doing it and be mixing it up with a bunch of cool people and be hanging out in Twitter spaces and on discord. Um, you know, from my background, like running a public company, uh, you, you've got this communication chain that you have to do.
And the information dissemination, it's a little bit laborious and you have press releases and all this stuff. Like one of the cool things about web three is you can communicate in real time with your community, with you, the people that have invested in you and in your project, uh, get feedback, pivot quickly. If you need to be agile and you can do all of these things and still conduct proper business and still be accountable and still be stand up and honest and transparent about what you're doing. Um,
with, you know, has always been really important and working with people that share that ethos has, has been equally important for me. And I think when you do that, when you work with good people who aren't afraid of working hard, you can achieve amazing things.
A hundred percent, a hundred percent. That's, that's what comes down to, you know, the people you surround yourself with and you will vibe and turn into those people. So Kurt, curate your vibe. Definitely. I want to say welcome to a couple more people to the room.
I appreciate everybody stopping through retweeting the space. I love seeing all the DeFi space donkeys showing up. Let's say real quick. What's up to a DJ Dave. I saw you jumped up on stage. Feel free to raise your hand if you have a question, but you want to say hi real quick.
Yeah, man. What's up? Hello everybody. Um, what, what am I buying? I heard, I heard coin and yeah. What am I buying?
All right. Calm down DJ Dave. This is a good place to learn. Yeah. We got a lot of, we got some good projects here. DJ Dave's a quick DJ. And that's for sure. Much love DJ. Glad to see you here. Uh, yes, we, uh, we have a couple of pin tweets up top. So everyone go there, show those some love retweet the room and let's say, what's up. I see we got Trey on stage as well. Welcome Trey. Hope you're doing great today. Love that PFP.
Today's been awesome. So far. Great guests for the first hour. I don't know about this guy for the second hour though.
Yeah. Yeah. We'll have to grill him. Make sure he's good. Appreciate you being here. It's getting grilled. Don't worry about that.
All right. And we also got peaceful trees up here on stage. Also rocking a really dope PFP. If I don't say so myself, how's it going? Peaceful.
It's going great. Just, uh, relaxing here on Friday. Got the day off. Thought I'd come in here and support the deep fast space donkeys.
Very cool, man. Very cool. Loving it. Loving it. And yeah, we do have a giveaway for the room. We're going to do a giveaway at the end of the space.
And we're going to do a giveaway. If you're rocking a DeFi space donkey PFP, you are going to win something.
So let's go retweet the room, tag some more friends. And yeah, this has been a great interview with, with Knuckle.
I have a question actually. So, well, actually two questions. I'm going to start with this one though.
What has been your biggest obstacle, um, getting into web three and doing what you're doing?
Well, I think if I look back early days, um, the, the biggest challenge, uh, was, was growing community.
You know, I think, uh, starting out from, from the, you know, I think a lot of people, um, especially going back a couple of years ago, you know, it was like, okay, I'm just, I'm going to launch an NFT collection.
I'm going to have, you know, uh, people are just going to line up for it. Well, that's not how it works.
And so I think, you know, based on my experience, just like how you build a community and the type of community that you put together is really important on forming the culture around your, uh, your project.
And, and, you know, I didn't want to just have a, um, LFG, LFG, LFG, uh, type of community. Right. Um, I wanted for, for people to be engaged and, and for, um, there to be some, some good communication.
But, you know, I remember trying to get to that first a hundred members and, and how hard that don't work to get people to kind of start paying attention to what we were doing.
Um, but it, you know, and I, I was on 24 seven, like someone popped into the discord. It was, it was like, you know, I, I made sure that, uh, you know, I was, I was saying hello personally.
Uh, yeah. And, and, and so that, that was a big piece of it. I think, uh, over time, um, just watching the community grow and watching other people come in and, and, you know, participate on that same level has been, been super cool.
But, you know, that was one of the things, um, I think, you know, especially early days to like dealing with, you know, the scammers and bad actors.
I think that was always really frustrating. I think when you're coming in, when you're new and optimistic about things and, and you're not, you know, I was familiar with like the, the, the crypto side scammer people and, and those scams.
But, um, there was a, there was a new level when you came into web three NFT world and, uh, first NFT I bought was a full scam.
Uh, uh, and then, you know, in running a discord, that was another thing. So, um, I, I, I hadn't had a ton of experience running discord.
So you're having people popping into your, your tickets and offering you this and that, and you, you know, feel like they're being legit and getting scammed.
So that, that was something that, uh, I know we've all struggled with in varying, varying levels, but it's, it's kind of almost funny now looking back and you see a ticket pop up and then you know exactly what that's all about.
It's like, yeah, no, bye. So, um, yeah, those are a couple of things.
I even had to just change the rules in my discord. It says, if you, it's a ticket and ask me for money or work without introducing yourself,
it's automatic rejection and ban from the server. That's just the rule.
Yeah. Yeah. We've got the same thing. Like it's posted right on the main support thing. It's like, we're not looking for chatters.
We're not looking for, you know, you to load us up with a robot disco discord members. We're not looking for Chinese whales.
We're, you know, uh, thanks for coming by. We hire mods from within our community and holders.
So, um, if you're interested in a mod job, feel free to, uh, become a holder and spend time in the community,
getting to know us and what we're all about, because, uh, outside of that, don't bother opening the ticket and it'll get closed immediately.
Yeah. And I think that, you know, that's really underrated how incredibly awesome what you're doing is.
And I'm glad that most people are doing that because once upon a time, they will, that will have been so successful for them to do that and get work that way.
But as more people, like you said, as more people conduct themselves correctly and more communities are operating in a professional manner,
that they're going to have such little success that they're going to have to adapt.
I mean, obviously we'd rather the, if it's obviously scams, we'd rather them not exist.
But if it's genuinely people thinking that that is a way for them to make money out of this industry, they're going to do it.
But if they realize that that's not going to be of any success and they've got to then, you know, you know,
change the way that they conduct themselves or find an alternative way to monetize whatever skill sets they have,
that that is the way to clean up the industry in an effective way that doesn't damage anybody.
So I think it's brilliant that you do that. So fair play.
Yeah, a hundred percent.
And like one of the things for me that I learned throughout my career is that if you are trying to, you know,
get involved with some somebody or an organization or a company, or you're trying to get a job,
like if you can make yourself valuable and if you can lend value to that person or that organization,
and you can do that, you know, not with a, well, if I do this, then that sort of attitude about it.
If you just genuinely come and try and support and help and provide value, that gets recognized, you know,
and that's how I've always operated.
Like when someone comes to me and the first thing they do is they've got their hand out and they want something from me,
that kind of puts them back a level as far as my priorities to address, right?
But if someone's coming and they're like, hey, this did this thing, you know, I know you're not looking for it,
but I built this for you or this is something that I did that I thought would be cool or how can I help with this?
It's like, that's awesome. I love that.
And those people invariably have become people that are now ingrained in the project, right?
And so I think if there's a word of advice for anyone out there that's looking to get involved in Web3
and wants to make a career out of this, like find a project that you're passionate about
or that you enjoy the community of and then find ways to bring value to that community.
Find ways to help support the community and the space in general
because when you're doing that and you're providing that value
and you're doing things that help better the space, like people will take notice, you know,
and it's like anything, it takes a little bit of work, take some time, work on growing your network,
but do that by being a valuable person, providing value to the people that you're being,
that you're associating with and that will get recognized.
That is such the alpha right now, honestly.
Like that's a big ethos of mine, you know, create value and you'll get what you put out.
That's just huge on that.
And you're absolutely spot on.
And I see we got some more friends in the house.
Wild World of Dragons, welcome to the stage.
Hope you're having a great Friday.
Yeah, thank you.
Hello, hello.
And, Nicole, I just wanted to mention like what you were saying.
It also, how the community responds shows you who the community is
because I love to go in and share with communities too,
but I have actually had people from the community attack me and some of the other ones.
And, you know, if they're like suspicious of you being helpful,
those are communities that maybe you might not want to invest your time and stuff into.
But people like you that appreciate when you come in and just want it,
because that's really like us founders who are in here and want one through to go.
That's really how we want it.
We want us all to grow together and we want us all to build together.
So, if you do go into a community and you are giving and they respond negatively,
I would recommend you find the more positive communities.
It's just what I wanted to follow up with that.
Yeah, for sure.
I mean, I think, too, it's important to understand that, you know,
you can't just blast into a community and start saying,
hey, I'm doing this, I'm doing that.
Like, it's important to understand the culture of the community that you're coming into.
Take time to know something about the community.
I think if you come in just spamming with all the stuff that you're going to give them for free
off the bat, that's almost as transparent as, you know,
someone hitting you up in a ticket for a job type of thing.
You know what I mean?
No, I'm not saying you.
No, I'm not saying you.
Yeah, but that is definitely, you never want to do that in any community.
But, like, just take time to respond.
No, I get what you're saying, though, for sure.
You know, when you are getting a part of the community and they're responding
and you guys are just doing things together, you know,
just feel out the whole community, too, because, you know,
you want the entire thing to be positive and supportive.
Yeah, for sure.
I mean, that's the cool thing about Web3 is that there's, like,
so many different communities that you can get involved in,
and each one of them has sort of their own flavor and culture around it.
And you're not always going to vibe with every community,
and there's nothing wrong with that.
I mean, I've always said, like, not everybody fucks with our art,
but some people really, really do.
And, you know, you don't have to love everything we do,
but if you do, hey, come on in.
And, you know, there's something for everybody out there.
Find communities that you click with, that you enjoy.
I think if you approach things from that level,
you're going to also have more success because you're going to be in a place
where you're feeling comfortable and you like the vibe and the culture
of what that community's got going on.
That's going to be more conducive for you to be able to get involved longer term
anyway than if you're, you know, just involving yourself with random communities.
So take some time to learn about communities and catch the vibe and, yeah,
bring value.
Get into that community, start to learn what it's about,
figure out how you can add value, and grow your friends,
grow your personal community as well.
A lot of people come in here and just start with a project,
and, like, 1%, not even 1% of your followers are going to buy your stuff.
So how many NFTs are you trying to sell, and how many followers do you have?
Do the math real quick.
Just start adding value to a community you like and find the vibe,
find your niche, you know what I mean?
Launch next year.
Like, honestly.
You just love being part of the whole entry growth.
It's good to launch before the bull run, but, yeah, you know,
now at this point you've really got to focus on your community and, you know,
you don't want to just push things forward because we're all looking at people
who are building serious businesses at this point.
You can't just come in with a PFP project anymore.
That's not going to fly.
It's past that point.
It's difficult.
Well, yeah, and if you do, just be upfront about it, you know what I mean?
Just be like, hey, we're just making some fun art, and we're having, you know,
it's a PFP.
You know, don't expect that you're going to make a million dollars,
but, you know, come vibe with the community and have fun.
There's nothing wrong with being a project like that, but just communicate what you're
doing.
I think, you know, there's been – I've seen too many projects try and be all things
for everyone, and you're never going to succeed that.
Find a niche, find something that you're into that you enjoy doing, and then just work
hard at it and, you know, work on trying to attract like-minded people that get what
you're doing.
That's a business model across Web3 or the real world.
And try to get at least half of your artworks done or all of them before you launch it.
That's, like, a huge thing.
Get as much done as you can, really, especially, like, even with the PFP project.
Like, you need a community to really push it.
That's the thing.
Take it always back to community.
But also, I want to go to Dave's hand real quick.
So let's just go to Dave's hand because I think he had a good question here.
Go ahead, Dave.
What's up?
I got a question for you.
I got some weed labeled exotic 80s cocaine, and all I can find is a California
Genetics Lab made it.
I will refer you to my medical consultant after this space.
This is going to be a more professional space about our NFT projects for now, but that is
a question for medical time.
We will take care of it.
Okay.
And Knuckles, I got some DJing stuff for you, brother.
You ready?
Yeah.
What's up, bro?
Not much, man.
I like the art, bro.
I like the art.
Yeah, I appreciate that.
I was late to the space, so is the art like the main thing, the ecosystem for your token?
Yeah, so Knuckle Bunny Death Squad is a project, is kind of an art and lore project.
You can check out the lore side of things and a bunch of the other stuff that we're doing
on our website, knucklebunnydesquad.com.
We're also involved with the Nobody token.
Recently just launched the NFT collection for that in conjunction with co-founder E in the
audience here today as well.
That's a community of communities type of thing as well, which was a token that was launched
with 15 founding projects, all providing liquidity to get the token off the ground and then all
utilizing the token in their various communities and bringing different utilities to bear.
Growing list of stuff that Nobody is integrated with and being integrated into.
So yeah, holding one of those NFTs, you can stake that for Nobody token.
We had the staking live for that before we even minted out.
We've got a bunch of other stuff.
We've got a 3D Nobody character that's integrated into two of the Eagleverse games already.
There's a idle game coming out shortly as well, which will also have NFT integration and ability
to earn and play with Nobody token.
A bunch of other stuff in the works in regards to Nobody token.
We're integrating that with Knuckle Bunny Death Squad.
I've already done a couple of airdrops for our holders of Nobody token.
And with Knuckle Bunnies, yeah, we're working on a comic.
We're also providing art and design services, dev services to Web3 projects.
We've done collections for five or six projects now, as well as one-on-ones for everyone from
Stoned 8 crew to Zendragons, et cetera.
And yeah, so that's kind of quick and dirty nutshell on what we've got going on.
Okay, I noticed nobody launched quite a bit ago, and it hadn't died, which is great.
I mean, you've got a fairly solid holder base.
What are your expectations going forward with the value of the coin, and have you got anything in place to push it?
Yeah, so I mean, as far as the Nobody token, again, we didn't want to just put out another meme coin.
That's part of what was involved with bringing all the different communities into doing that.
A great deal of time was spent on the initial tokenomics.
So we had two rounds on that of pledging.
One was for projects.
One was for holders of those projects that could come in on the initial LP.
The project side of things, that was a vested token release.
So we had a bunch of sort of mechanics built into the tokenomics in order to sort of ensure that it was sustainable.
It was a $1 billion token cap of that $200 million were put towards the initial LP providers.
The project side of that was vested over the course of six weeks.
And then the remaining supply, which we call the expansion supply, that's held in a multi-sig,
and that's only released 10 million tokens at a time every time the LP actually increases by $5,000.
And so we tied the expansion token release into increase in LP.
But also those aren't just getting dumped onto the market.
So those are being allocated for specific things.
So NFT staking, for example, we had 240 million tokens that were designated towards NFT-related rewards.
We have tokens from each expansion that are allocated for marketing, for development, for community airdrops, et cetera.
So as the remaining supply gets brought out, it isn't getting dumped into the market.
It's getting actually utilized throughout the ecosystem and helping support that.
So this is just some of the things that we're doing.
But in addition to that, the fact that we have so many different projects that came together and are involved,
and it's an ongoing thing as well.
So we have an allocation for grants for both communities, artists, and developers that want to bring something to the table to get involved with nobody.
We want to continue growing the group of projects and people that are involved with nobody.
And so that's a big part of what we want to do going forward as well is help support projects in the salon of space, artists, developers.
And then in doing that, we're helping build the growth of the holder base for nobody token and the use case for it as well.
Yeah, it sounds pretty good.
I like it.
I really like the art.
I'm going to go check some of it out.
It's available on secondary, I'd take it.
And what's the price range?
There's a, I think there's only 20.
It was a small collection of $9.99.
Last I checked, there was only around 25 or so listed, I believe.
Still pretty reasonable, though.
It's, I think, somewhere around half a soul.
Last I checked, I haven't looked today.
But somewhere around half a soul, I think there was, I'll just pull it up right now.
It's N-O-B-D-Y on Magic Eden.
And, yeah, there's in and around 20, 25 on the market.
Those can be staked for nobody tokens, or you can start earning nobody right off the bat as soon as you've got one of those on Clubhouse.
And I'll just say, DJ Dave, make sure you're following E down there with the nobody.
He's got the nobody PFP with the red background.
Make sure you're following him, and you can catch more up on that token as well.
We're coming a little bit towards the end of his hour, and I have one more question, so let's just get right into it real quick.
I want to say, what's up?
We've got King on the stage and Zal, so we're going to go with King real quick.
Say hi, King.
Welcome, welcome.
I know King's busy in the background, too, so maybe we'll just go to Zal first.
All right.
King, keep working, keep working.
I appreciate you being here, legend.
Zal, how's it going, Zal?
What is that?
Oh, I see we've got some feedback, apparently.
Well, he's here.
He's here.
He's here with the duck.
Let's go.
All right.
All right.
So we're going to get this last question here for Knuckles.
Collaborations in this new year, what kind of collaborations are you looking forward to?
Or are you, I mean, I see you're doing lots of stuff.
So what kind of collaborations are you looking for?
Yeah, so, I mean, we're always looking to collaborate with other projects.
I think from a community level, you know, we've got a bunch of poker players in our crew.
We're doing some multi-community poker tournaments over the next little while.
One of the ways that I always enjoyed mixing it up with other projects was doing one-on-ones for them.
And so that was, you know, over the years became a bit of a calling card, you know, to our earlier point.
You know, if there was a project that I liked and thought was cool, I would, you know, just put together some one-on-ones for them and fire it over.
We're always open for art collabs with people.
You know, that's something that we do as a primary, you know, service from the Knuckle Bunny studio.
So if you're looking for art, definitely hit us up.
We can definitely help you out.
And, yeah, I mean, I think just partnerships and collaborations with projects in general that are, you know, helping to support.
I mean, one of the cool things with Nobody was seeing, you know, all the projects that are involved, like there's a ton of Knuckle Bunny people in there.
And now we're seeing that, you know, all the people that are holding Knuckle Bunny are holding all of the other projects as well and vice versa, right?
And so I think, you know, looking at ways where, you know, we can kind of collaborate as communities to, you know, whether it's in spaces, whether it's doing art swaps, there's just so many different ways to mix it up in the space with other projects and kind of help bring value to each other's projects.
So I'm always open to interesting and creative opportunities to work with other projects.
And, yeah, so if anyone's got ideas or things that they would like to talk to us about, feel free to hop into our Discord and hit us up.
Well, we have an interview coming up, but Rev, tell them about the book collab.
Absolutely.
Thank you, sir.
So, yeah, so we are working on a project ourselves, which is a community collaborative project, which is a physical and digital book.
And we're doing that to try and create something where all the projects that we want to collaborate with us on it can create one project that highlights all the projects.
So this is going to be a physical and a digital book.
There was a potential of 100 pages that was available to be purchased.
I think we've currently 41 have been minted.
And I think I can't remember how many it is that we've burned, but we're burning pages every single day until all the pages have either been burned or minted.
But the book project, we actually have a raffle going on right now.
It's 150 Polygonmatic to get a page in our book.
But we've actually got a raffle taking place, which is the tickets that is $15.
And that is taking place on our website.
And one person will win a page in our book.
And the website is communitycommunities.xyz.
You can also access that through my profile.
But the book project, the point behind that is to highlight the true value of Web3 and to showcase that collaboration is king over competition.
And it's so exciting to think of all the different projects that are already in this project and how amazing it's going to be when all of the communities are uplifting this book project that's got all of these amazing different projects in it.
And there's so many incredible projects in there already.
And there's so many amazing ways in which we're going to add value to this book.
And we're very fortunate to have the network that we have.
And we're trying to effectively utilize our network to get maximum exposure for as little barrier to entry as possible.
And one of the ways in which we're utilizing this is through the crypto magazine, which is the largest crypto publication in the world,
currently available in 23 countries globally.
And it's going to be featured in the magazine, which we're really excited about.
And we're hopefully going to be able to utilize some of our network as well to try and get the book in certain places around the world.
So if any projects are interested in the collaboration and you want to learn more, they can do that through our website.
And we've got lots of content that we've created around it.
I personally am a content creator myself.
Our whole team is really.
And we've made lots of content about it so you can get a better visual of it.
But just to help projects conceptualize it, if you're a founder or you have your own project or brand,
is that your NFT character would play a role in a story that we're telling.
And that's the exciting part about it is each project will have their own page,
which will have a story that is tailored to whatever it is that they vibe with.
So if you've got a project and it's in support of mental health, let's say,
that your character will, when traveling through the journey that it's going to go through,
it will highlight certain points in which it overcomes certain obstacles mentally to do the thing that it's going to do
without giving away too much of the story.
But, yeah, so that's basically the outline of the project.
Different projects that get involved can add whatever utility and value that they wish to as well,
because there's lots of different ways in which projects are going to be adding value.
And it's also integrated with the Hangry Animals ecosystem as well and the Hangryverse.
And anyone who purchases a page in the book will also get a CHET pass,
which is a membership pass for the Hangry Animals ecosystem,
which means that you get to mint one of the Hangry Animal NFTs on mint day,
which is on the 16th of March, which the mint price is around $50.
The membership is an NFT as well, but you also get a fully rigged 3D avatar of the CHET,
which is a character in the Hangry Animals story, which is a soldier.
But you also get IP ownership over that CHET as well.
So that avatar, you can use that in multiple metaverses and any metaverse that you can scan it into as well.
And there's a few other utilities along with getting a page in the book.
But if anyone was to get involved with the raffle and want to try the luck for $15,
anyone who does that in the space will also get a custom Doglins NFT created for you as well,
which is super exciting.
So, yeah, if anyone wants to do that, they can do that through the website.
And if you do so, we will make sure that you get a custom Doglins tailor-made to,
whether your project or personalized to your X profile.
So, yeah, no, thank you for letting me explain that tricky.
And if anyone wants any more information, you can reach out to any of the team.
But I just wanted to say, Knuckle Bunnies, that you guys have got an amazing project.
We love what you're doing.
The artwork is in a league of its own.
It's incredible how you're going about your business.
The network you've got is phenomenal.
You know, massive shout-out to E as well.
And the collaboration between you two and just what's unfolding off of the result of you two working together
and being so like-minded and a massive shout-out to Trey and E as well
for being the reason why you're here being featured by us today.
So, yeah, thank you.
Yeah, I appreciate you guys having us up for sure.
It's been great being able to connect and looking forward to looking how we can collaborate further in the future.
I'm on your website right now, checking it out.
And I love the book idea.
I'd love to get involved with that as well.
So, I appreciate you guys having us up and letting us talk a little bit about what's going on with Knuckle Bunnies and Nobody.
Encourage anyone that is interested in learning more to hop into our Discord,
DiscordGG slash KBDS for Knuckle Bunnies and slash N-O-B-D-Y for Nobody.
Yeah, come hit us up.
Great communities across the board and, you know, always open to mix it up with other projects.
So, once again, thank you for having us up and appreciate you guys.
Cheers, man.
I've really enjoyed spending the time with you.
You've got great projects, great people around you.
So, you know, it's destined for greatness and success.
I love it.
Yeah, amen to that.
And I'll make sure as well that there'll be posts pinned at the top for the remainder of the space as well.
So, if anyone wants to get access to the Knuckle Bunnies Discord or the Nobody Discord,
I'll make sure that there'll be posts pinned at the top so you guys can do that.
And I strongly advise you do it.
And also, check out the websites as well.
So, even if you don't think you may or may not get involved, always check out the website because you just don't know what is on the website.
It also helps the people who create these websites, you know, to get a bit of traffic through the website.
It makes all the difference in the world.
But a lot of these projects have grown so much deeper than – sorry, Bear, can I get feedback for your mic there, bro?
That these projects – this is why we do the longer winded spaces is because it's impossible to break down what these ecosystems are doing.
Everything that they've worked on, the network that they have, the people that they've got involved in their ecosystem,
and also what they're looking to build in the future as well.
So, just taking a bit of time to check out these websites and have a little dive deeper is a game-changer
and will help you learn things that wasn't able to be covered.
Yeah, fire away, brother.
Just one last thing I forgot to mention.
We do two weekly spaces.
We've got our Friday 4.20 space that we do every week Friday at 4.20 Pacific Standard Time.
That's for the Knuckle Bunny Death Squad, but it's an open space.
We're always happy to have other founders up, other projects come talk about what they're doing,
mix it up, vibe with the community, and learn about some other stuff going on in the space.
And then on Wednesdays at 2 p.m. Pacific Standard Time, we do the Crypto Crew Space.
That's where we're talking about all things crypto, kind of talking about the portfolio that we've been put together,
but also just helping people that are wanting to learn more about crypto, about trading, DeFi, et cetera,
tap into some of the expertise from a bunch of our different members
that all have a lot of good stuff to bring to the table there.
So, yeah, just wanted to mention those two things.
And then on the website tip that you're just mentioning, yes, 100% agree with that.
And also, if you need help with a website for your project, feel free to hit up the Knuckle Bunny Death Squad.
We can definitely help you with that.
You can check out our website for an example of what we built for ourselves.
You can check out the Nobody website that we put together for that one as well.
That's nobody, N-O-B-D-Y dot X-Y-Z there.
Yeah.
Anyway, I know I've been rambling too much today, so I appreciate you guys.
I appreciate everyone for showing up today.
Don't forget to follow everybody in the room.
Don't forget to, you know, just get out there and have a good weekend as well.
Always important to touch some grass from time to time, get to know your family again.
Anyway, guys, thanks.
Peace.
Peace.
Absolutely.
Appreciate you stopping in.
It's been a great space.
And this is a recorded space, so everyone get down there right now to that purple pill and just retweet the room.
Throw it back out there.
Give it some more love.
And check out some of these pinned tweets up here.
We've got a bunch of cool art and some stuff up top.
Definitely worth checking out.
So definitely check that out.
Also, I want to say what's up to Beer and Weed.
We got you on stage, buddy.
This is the community of community space.
I know we hang out every once in a while on these late night spaces, but this is our community of community space where we talk crypto and NFTs.
So we usually interview two projects for an hour, a little bit more sometimes or less each, and then we ask questions.
So if you've got questions for anyone, feel free.
And we try to keep the Jumbotron specifically for our projects who are here.
So we're just going to clean this up a little bit, but I appreciate you being here, man.
Much love.
Check out Beer and Weed's profile, and maybe we'll get you in here for an interview later as well.
He's got some stuff pinned to his profile.
You might want to check it out, fam, if you guys are into that lifestyle.
Bacon.
See you.
So who's the second guest, Tricky?
We've got Tricky Buddha from Defy Space Donkeys, I believe.
Yeah, so you've got these T's, man.
Talk about the T's.
Talk about the T's.
Yeah, absolutely.
So we have just actually launched our website.
DragonJuiceElixir.com is now up and running.
We are doing pre-orders, and we have an order form for our current supply.
The order form system should be up by the end of the month.
We are expanding rapidly.
We sent out $1,500 worth of elixir to cancer patients and autoimmune warriors so far this month, which is awesome.
Check it out there in the Jumbotron.
Just locked in the SEO, too.
So it's showing the art now on Twitter.
Let's go.
We have an amazing product.
We actually have three products right now.
We're starting with, we have an energy elixir, a sleep elixir, and then just a simple restoration elixir, which is all the base ingredients without a stimulant or any sedatives.
A daytime elixir we make is caffeine-free, sugar-free, chemical-free.
It's all natural herbs and a little bit of fruits.
We use stinging nettle leaf instead of caffeine for the energy, which is great.
There's no crash.
There's no heart palpitations.
I don't know the typical jitters you would get with caffeine.
And then for the night version, we have skullcap, which is a sedative, and mullein, which is a muscle relaxer.
So it relaxes you, gets you to sleep, and you stay asleep.
I used to get up like four or five times a night, and now I pretty much just crash and wake up in the morning, seven, eight hours later, and I'm good.
It's been amazing for my health.
I have Crohn's, fibromyalgia, cyclical vomiting syndrome, and migraines, and there's no cure for these things.
So I'm just usually living in pain and trying to, you know, bullish, just push through it, right?
And I've been here for two and a half years, pushing pretty hard, being that positive guy that you guys all know.
But the last five months have been an epic change for me.
My health has improved drastically.
It almost just feels like magic.
I don't even recognize the person that I used to be.
And I went through that for like 14, 15 years before finding this elixir finally.
And I wouldn't have even tried this because, you know, everyone tells you it's your diet maybe, you know, try this or that.
And there's so many things I've tried from so many doctors and people.
It's just I was burnt out.
But Amanda from Wild World of Dragons gave me this elixir, and immediately I felt decent.
And over time, it just built up in my system.
It seemed to help more and more and more.
So, you know, we've turned it into the – we've expanded the charity project.
We're now building it as a business.
We're going to tackle the pain market, the sleep aid market, and the energy drink market.
And we've got a product that actually leaves you feeling better.
It doesn't burn you out.
I'm super, super bullish on this and really happy to hear all the testimonies and just the love from the community.
We've got 90 ambassadors now that are pumping up the brand.
They're all going to be earning a 10% commission when we launch the site, and they can basically just give an affiliate link.
That's it.
They're not going to be handling product or anything.
They'll just be enjoying the tea and telling their friends about it.
So that's a little introduction to what we've got going on.
Definitely check out that website.
I mean, so there's a lot of knowledge and expertise that's gone into the creation of these teas, right?
Absolutely.
Amanda worked for over a decade researching all the different herbs and making the recipe.
And then when she met me, because I have Crohn's and I have a bunch of allergens, we really refined it to take out any possible allergens for gluten.
There's no nuts.
There's no mushrooms.
Even a lot of the fruits we've reduced.
There's no strawberries because there's a slight strawberry allergy out there.
We try to really just make a very safe, widely acceptable product now.
And it tastes a little bit better.
We've taken out some of the bitterents, which were good pain relievers, but we can make those in capsule form instead of adding it to the tea.
So the tea is a light, fruity, chamomile flavor.
I mean, it's herbal, but it's not as herbal as I would expect considering how much power it really packs.
So it's just a light, a light, fruity tea, and you can add it to your other tea pretty, you know, flawlessly.
I had one friend who added it to their chocolate milk.
We've added it to coffee beans and brewed it like coffee and made lattes.
Those were great.
We've added the elixir to milkshakes, to smoothies.
I mean, it seems very versatile, and people are enjoying it.
Yeah, this is actually, like, groundbreakingly revolutionary.
And I don't think that anything we say will ever do it justice because it's – I mean, you'll know more than anyone else that when you go through suffering, like daily suffering, sleep deprived, pain, aching,
and it affects your mental health and your well-being, and you have to fight through every single day with everything you have
because, you know, people don't really realize just how strong humans are and how – and what you can come back from
and how much you can actually endure every single day until you have to go through these things.
You know, like, it happens to us all, doesn't it, when – like, there's times in your life where you might need an operation
or you get really unwell or you severely injure yourself and it just wipes you off the face of the earth for a few weeks or a few months
and then you bounce back.
But some people are in genuine suffering for massive periods of time.
So for there to be something to bring not only comfort to that but help people bounce back from that is an absolute game changer, I think.
So, yeah, well done to you and Amanda and Amanda for a decade of research.
Yeah, absolutely. I mean, going through this for, like, 14, 15 years and then snapping and turning into positive tricky, you know,
like, people think I'm a little nuts. Yeah, I'm a little nutty.
I had to kind of snap in order to become this person, you know what I mean?
But I powered through it and now that's burned into my brain just how to be, which makes me feel great.
And then now I'm actually feeling great.
So, yeah, I'm super productive now and things have just accelerated rapidly.
I couldn't imagine, you know, doing anything differently.
I'm taking 75% less medication.
You know, the pain meds, everything, they don't normally work very well.
The pain is just completely managed now.
I mean, it is absolutely a game changer.
We're looking actually on getting some third-party recognition now for some of the medical attributes so they can make the claims on the medical side instead of us making the claims.
And we'll just focus on the energy and the pain relief and the sleep aid part.
The really obvious, you know, helpful symptoms or, you know, helpful situations that we can provide.
But, yeah, it's been a game changer.
I'm absolutely, I'm almost speechless.
Like, there's so much good that's come from this in such a small amount of time.
And I just owe it all to Amanda.
I really do.
So, thank you, Amanda.
I appreciate you being here too.
We always do these tea talks with Amanda every Tuesday from, we do it from 6 to, you know, 8.
Sometimes we go longer.
But tea talk Tuesday, that's Eastern time.
And, yeah, we just do them recorded so you can always, you know, check in.
We do the intro where we just kind of go over the basic products and then we do a deep dive and you can ask Amanda questions about the recipe, about the ingredients, you know, why we pick certain things.
And we're doing lots of really cool collabs too coming forward.
Like, in this next month, we got dog treats, you know, hip and joint treats, sedation treats for relaxation and for stressful dogs or for fireworks or transportation.
We have another one for digestion issues because, like, bullies and certain dogs have digestion issues.
So, we're just, there's so many possible collabs.
And that, we haven't even mentioned the cleaning products, the other skin elixirs, the makeup, the everything else that can come from this.
There's so many other elixirs we have on the back end.
And we're just starting with the ones that we know can really help people, you know, realize their life back.
And then, once they're feeling good on the inside, we can focus on the outside.
So, that's kind of how we're doing it.
You know, we're launching as a non-for-profit for the Smilebox Charity with Wild World of Dragons.
And then, also, as Dragon Potions Company to create all the dragon potions and the elixirs for general consumption.
Hey, guys, just real quick.
I missed most of that, Twiki, but I know you rocked it.
This is just Amanda, the Wild World of Dragons.
I rugged so hard and I'm back.
So, I came in on if you have any questions.
So, totally open to questions.
Yes.
On Tuesdays, they will stop by and grill you hard.
I told them about our Tuesday space.
I love those tea chats that we've done six episodes so far.
So, join us for episode seven next Tuesday and ask Amanda questions.
I love being grilled, guys.
It helps us stay on the ball.
Yeah.
I think everyone out there has a friend that can potentially benefit from this.
And what better way than having an affiliate link where not only can they help their friend, they can help themselves at the same time.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Exactly.
We all – I mean, the reality is we're all going to benefit from this.
Like, if you drink energy drinks, tea, or coffee, we have a better one.
If you like – if you need better sleep or you exercise too hard or work too hard or play too hard and you need that recovery, we got you.
Or just have just general life aches and pains.
We'll help you then too.
Who's not working or playing too hard?
I know I'm doing both.
Yeah, and one of the things I think that a lot of people are waking up to that I've – I mean, I've done decades of research on it myself is what we thought we knew about illness and disease and things that we thought were hereditary and genetic that can be treated and, in a lot of cases, cured through having the right things in your body.
The right nutrients and minerals and how hard-hitting malnourishment is when you're eating foods that just don't have what our body needs to have a strong immune system or an ability to cope with the everyday life that we live today.
And it's through things like this that once you experience it by trying it yourself and you realize, wow, I need to tell everyone about this because it's just so effective.
Like, you yourself, Tricky, you know, like you know where you were at.
And, I mean, it would be graphic to even try and explain it to people.
But where you are now, you know where you are now, but it's not something you can really show people through a space, you know.
So, yeah.
Yeah, facts.
If you guys want the camera roll or the details, come to the DMs because it is not a good topic of discussion.
Thumbs down from Rev.
Yeah, just spare yourself.
Crohn's is brutal.
Yeah, it was definitely a hard time.
And going through that for so long.
I mean, you imagine just having like five kids that get you sick for three weeks straight can really do a number on your head, right?
Imagine if that was like 14 years, right?
You might just totally snap and start coming into rooms like, defy space donkeys.
You know, like who knows?
Tricky.
Hey, so if anybody doesn't know, like I'm in the middle of moving, so I've been a little absent.
But while I was out there reading with people, like I met a girl that has Crohn's disease.
I was so excited.
I was like, oh my God.
They look at you like you're super insane now, right?
Because we talk to anybody.
I'm sure me and Amanda are the same too.
Like we talk to anybody and they, you know, everyone's got problems.
And we, you know, we dig and we get them to open up and they tell us about the problems.
And then we're giggling and grinning like freaking school kids because we know we can help them.
But it looks like we're like, you know, like what's that German word for?
For benefit from enjoyment of other people's misery.
You know, Froden Scheider.
I know.
It's so crazy.
We're like, yes, you have Crohn's?
Yeah, I'm so excited.
No one's been so excited about her Crohn's before.
Right, right.
Oh, you have back pain and leg pain and you can't sleep?
That's awesome.
Yes.
Try this tea.
They're all just like, wait, what's going on?
Well, I find the people that actually need it the most respond the hardest to it.
And so the light, the testimonials and the life-changing effects are that much more dramatic.
So I love helping everyone with it.
But people who are genuinely that like lost in pain and so hopeless with disability and stuff for years,
I'm just so excited for them, you know?
And I'm just like, just wait.
Yeah, but it's a funny one as well, isn't it?
Absolutely.
Because like most people are so wiped out that they don't even want to help themselves.
And that's like right across the board.
I mean, like us in Web3 have had our minds blown multiple times about how life changing this industry is on a financial level,
connectivity, you know, the way we've learned about the financial system, community, how much power we actually have together individually that are, you know?
And it's like when you find something that makes an impact in your life and you want to tell people about it,
they're just like, oh, I don't want to do that.
So I just want to tell your granddad to invest into digital assets.
It's like, oh, no, no, I'm fine.
You know, I'm fine struggling on 50 pound a week.
I'll be all right.
Well, it's like, no, no, this will change your life.
You know, you can benefit.
So, yeah, it's a really tough one to try and convince people that there's an alternative that's beneficial to them.
So, you know, I think you've got your work cut out on that side of things, I think.
So, like, I was going to ask, you know, like, you know, what have you got in place to try and help people see that this is a potential route for them to take if they're suffering or struggling?
I know you've got some testimonies, I believe, haven't you?
Yeah.
So we have lots of testimonies and we're starting to add them to the website now.
So you can start to check out that we have our first two testimonies.
Could you read some?
Could you read some testimonials?
So, well, I could tell you a couple.
We've got a couple in the space.
You might even want to step up and say something.
I can tell you.
I'm happy to share, too.
Go ahead, DJ Dave.
Let me hear your experience.
Yeah, I mean, I've had Crohn's for years.
It runs in my family or I don't know, the genetic stuff we eat, we were raised to eat or whatever.
But me and my cousins both have it really bad.
And I got on to see and it's helped mine 100%.
I mean, it's a different night and day.
I mean, if you don't have the problem, you don't have the pain.
So you don't have to worry about all that, you know.
And it kind of switches it off.
Not all the way, but enough to be bearable.
And my cousin loves it.
He's already been a tricky site.
He's going to order his own supply and start using it regularly.
And he loves the daytime.
He works weekends, a 24-hour shift.
So he'll do the daytime and work while he's working his shift to help keep him awake.
And it keeps him from having stomach issues and whatnot.
And plus, you know, it keeps his pain threshold down and keeps him awake and alert.
That's what's up.
And he's just started.
Yeah, he's been on it one week.
Yeah, yeah.
This is just the initial reaction is enough that you're like, I'm going to – I got it.
This is it.
This is the thing I need.
And then a month goes by and you're like, whoa.
Now that I think about it, my pain is not even close to the same.
And then two more months go by and it's just completely – I'm not even the same person.
So I'm super happy to hear that it's helping you and your brother.
And, yeah, this is just absolutely epic.
I still love the testimony we got from our very own member of the team who was going through some serious stuff, took the tea.
And the best part about it was this is someone who is going through chemotherapy actively.
And their comment was that they had more energy than they've had in 10 years.
And if that doesn't tell you something, you know, seeing the light perk up and just the hope from that, that alone, you know what I mean?
Because any kind of chronic illness, the fatigue, the brain fog, it just – it takes it out of you and you take it out on yourself.
And so when you alleviate that, it's not even just the alleviation of the symptoms, but it's that hope coming back too, right?
And, I mean, the power of hope cannot be denied.
Those chronic pain diseases are – they capitalize on – like – so just like our teas have a catalytic compound that capitalizes and builds on a better life,
the diseases actually attack your body a similar way.
So while it's attacking your intestines, well, now that your body's under attack, then it causes these other reactions,
and then those make you sensitive to other things.
And so it's just creating an entire system failure.
And that's why it just gets worse and worse and worse.
But with these, it's literally the opposite because it's helping your body deal with all of that that it's going through.
Your body stops creating the catalytic process of, like, breaking down and starts working with you to heal.
And that's about that month in when you really start seeing, like, long-term core changes happening.
You're trying to break the chain early is what you're saying.
Yes, it's a beautiful way to put it, Macon.
Cut it off in the past.
You know what's really crazy about all of that as well is that these are ingredients that we've known about for thousands of years that haven't been utilized for reasons we all know why.
And I've found a supplement myself.
It's not the teas yet, but it will be.
And I've been utilizing that for a couple of months.
It's got eight to seven minerals and nutrients in it.
And I've been suffering with chronic anxiety for over 20 years.
And that's caused depression, stomach problems, sickness, just feeling sick all the time, headaches, fatigue, brain fog.
And since I started using this supplement, after 20 years and being on medication for 10 therapy sessions, doctor sessions, exercise, nothing would touch it.
And all of it is completely gone just because I put the right things in my body.
Mind-blowing.
So I know that this will be effective because I've found something else that has completely turned my life around and I've tried everything.
Yeah, good nutrients go a long way and we are all malnourished.
But let me just – before we go to the hand, I just want to say this too.
Not only are our testimonials starting to go up, but we have the Smilebox program where if you are chronically ill, if you have pain, if you have cancer and you're going through it, or if you really have a lot of pain and you have a financial need, go to our website.
Fill out the form for the Smileboxes and you can submit yourself, you can submit a loved one.
And when we do our – when we get donations, or if you'd like to make a donation, go there too.
With our donations, we provide.
So we've sent out $1,500 worth of Elixir this month.
If we can continue to get good patients that we can help and we can continue to get donations, and then once we start to get the revenue from the business, this is just going to keep on growing and we're going to be able to help lots and lots of people.
So even if you can't afford it, go still when you want to check out that website and submit.
We want to help as many people as we can.
But Knuckle, I saw your hand up real quick.
What was that?
Oh, I was just curious what that revolution was.
Was that the Dragon Elixir you were talking about that you'd found helped you out?
No, it's a different supplement that I found about the Elixir.
So I am going to be trying the Elixir very soon.
Because I think it's going to have similar, if not better, effects on that.
But, yeah, I'm happy to.
I was going to say, Rev, I am committed.
So after this move, this next month, I'm committed to getting you guys a shipment over in England.
And we'll do a good size pack so that you guys can distribute from there.
Because we've got a lot of really big supporters over there that have been amazing through the whole process.
We actually did send 13 packages over there.
And they just didn't get distributed out.
So we're going to definitely try again with a more, you know, with you guys.
Because you guys are all connected.
And we'll definitely get it to each other.
And Amanda, I have a question for you.
Do you guys do collaborations with other projects?
Oh, absolutely.
So right now, I'm more the developer of recipes and all of the products and stuff like that.
This is where Tricky came into play.
I actually wasn't even developing this as a business.
I was just helping as many people as I personally could each month.
And he is much more of a business developer and was like,
I was actually trying to do a business on my dragon art so I could pay for more help, more people.
And so Tricky came in.
And after we connected with some really good, you know, mental health spaces and just energies and stuff.
And he was like, do you realize that if we actually do this as a business,
we can help so many more people, you know, like millions of people over the world.
And we've only been working on building it as a business for this past few months.
And it has truly been amazing.
We have already sent out so many smile boxes.
We actually did 11 smile boxes this month.
I did a sneaky one.
Well, I was moving.
So I just wanted to get all the stock either to him or out to clients before I had to move.
So, but it has been absolutely amazing.
So even though the business building is still pretty new,
the products itself has been over a decade.
And I did over 10 years of diligence building up this recipe and have helped hundreds of people with it.
So if I can, if we can help even more people change their lives and bring that hope back
and restore that vitality and restoration to a life to thrive again,
I'm all down for it.
So he's, so that's what I'm here to help people and help them learn about it and understand it.
Because like you guys were saying, you know, having people understand,
we do have some ideas, like we have some capsules that I actually love the stubborn people
because when you get the stubborn people to actually try it and then they see it,
then they're stubborn on your product.
Now, like we have someone like that.
And like, we have other ways, like if they just want to try it really easy,
we have some capsule versions that they can get just a kind of a sample of it.
And then once they try that, they want to try the full version because they're like,
wow, if just a little bit, only a third helps this much, how much, kind of like you, Rev,
you're using a portion.
Like if this much helps, how much is this much going to help, you know?
So yeah, it's been amazing.
And I hope I answered your question, Knuckle.
I kind of get a little passionate about this subject, if you can't tell.
Right.
If you think that other thing helped, Rev, watch this fine tuner and elixir just for you.
And I mean, like I was riddled with anxiety and depression before, you know, before this too.
So I know, I know this can't help.
And you're right.
It just creates the stomach pains and the headaches and then just one thing after another.
And then the system starts to fail.
So yeah, I'm super bullish.
I can't wait to get this like everywhere.
And also like, I mean, we're both real bullish on Web3, right?
What if, and this is a big what if,
but I'm looking at the idea of just straight up going into being a registered security
and then distributing NFTs to all the community members in this, this,
we know so many great projects and great communities,
but we could all,
they could all be holding a percentage of the company as an actual security
and be owners of the company.
That's a, that's like a potential thing we could do.
And this could actually be,
this could be,
it would,
it would be like,
I don't mind paying taxes.
You know,
you're only complaining about taxes.
It's just something stupid people do.
Cause you complain about taxes.
It means you got money.
If you got money,
it's not a problem.
So I don't mind being a billionaire and paying billions in taxes.
I'm totally fine with that.
I want to help people.
Knuckle did have his hand up a couple of times,
but don't forget before we go to drop the,
you know,
alpha of what we're excited about for our next collaborations.
Cause it's not just people.
And that's a pretty big drop.
Oh yeah.
you missed it.
I did.
I did tease that pretty good.
Yes.
Yes.
Yes.
But welcome.
Is it,
is it dog sanctuary?
we'll,
we are also,
yes,
I'm also talking to dog sanctuary and,
the good dogs club and popular.
And there's a,
got the state to stray dogs club,
dog.
There's a couple of dog brands that I'm definitely reaching out with,
because they all,
everyone loves to have,
you know,
good treats for their dog.
And if your dog's unhealthy,
then it's just,
you know,
a massive,
massive bonus.
I mean,
we can definitely extend the life.
Or if they're healthy and have the extreme anxieties and you don't want them on
antidepressants all the time.
Cause it's situational anxiety.
Yeah.
For the little dogs and for fireworks and transportation and all that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We did,
we did touch on that and I'm super pumped about that.
I can't wait for,
everything to get settled down next month and we'll go into,
to more production and then automation.
And then we can,
hopefully overload wild with so many orders that we have to hire multiple
manufacturers across the country.
I already,
my teenagers are all ready to help with like the actual packaging part.
So I do all the mixing and prepping and get it in the tea things and
they'll help get them in boxes and ship.
So we got that part down until we're overwhelmed.
And by the time we're overwhelmed,
we should be able to afford expanding at that point in time.
I feel.
What's the best way for projects to hook up with you in order to,
figure out a collab.
Yeah.
join my discord,
open up a ticket,
you know,
just tap in with me.
There's lots of ways to get ahold of me.
I'm around all the time.
You can DM call.
I'll,
you know,
DM me and I'll send you my phone number.
We can talk on the backend.
If he's not busy in a Twitter space,
that is.
I multitask pretty well.
You're also three Twitter spaces and on the phone.
Also,
you're welcome to come to the T spaces,
the T chats on Tuesdays,
because we also brainstorm ways that we can collaborate with other
communities and help each other grow together.
Cause it is an important part of,
everything that we do for both Tiki and I,
and why we love the community of communities so much.
We're all in here to grow the entire web three ecosystem,
not just our portion of it.
Love it.
Definitely tricky is the man to talk to about details.
Awesome.
We'll hit you up.
Love to see if there's a way we could,
work together with nobody and with,
knuckle bunnies.
Yeah,
absolutely.
I see lots of collabs coming forward,
not only for individual consultations where we can make custom
elixirs for people,
but for brands,
you know,
if you wanted to make an energy drink or some specific type of beverage for
your,
you know,
your people that doesn't have a chemicals and sugar in it,
you know,
sweetened with licorice root instead of sugar and not using caffeine,
not using harsh chemicals that leave you groggy or irritable the next day.
Like,
I mean,
there's,
yeah,
there's,
I see a lot of people trying to make custom energy drinks and it's like,
why would you use that company or that product?
Like we need to do it.
Let's do it.
Right.
We can even make this into a concentrate,
then put it into syrups,
make sodas,
juices,
teas,
lemonades.
Like,
I got to point out guys,
cause you know,
this is my full research development part.
People are starting.
Even the Arizona tea company has a healing tea where they add like three of the
ingredients.
So people are starting to do this.
We are just leading because we have the full compound in both the 20 to 40
ingredient mixes that have everything.
So people are starting to play with this.
Now we are just way ahead of the game.
So it really is a pretty amazing opportunity and I'm excited to be here.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I just wanted to do a quick shout out to knuckles as well.
Knuckle bunnies as well,
you know,
fair play for wanting to collaborate with people trying to add value to people
like this,
you know,
just says a lot about you guys and what you're trying to accomplish.
you know,
big love to you guys for that.
Sorry,
tricky.
I was just going to say,
it's,
it's going to be really cool to see all the different collabs coming out of
the,
of these different,
you know,
different types of beverages and stuff.
And I know that,
you know,
if we just jump together,
you know what I mean?
We don't need to worry about what the other people are doing.
Right.
Like,
yeah,
they're,
they're making drinks and stuff,
but we're already at the point where with our bulk purchases now,
we're providing these elixirs for cheaper than people could create them.
Oh yeah.
And they're just,
just starting at the tip of the iceberg.
Tricky is what I was saying.
They're like just at the tip of the iceberg,
like one or two of the ingredients,
like just the nettle.
Right.
Right.
Like they,
they might be able to just provide the energy,
the natural energy without the caffeine,
or they might do it with it,
or they might just have some mullein or some skullcap to add that,
that those effects.
But they're the underlying dragon juice elixir with all the different,
you know,
synergistic ingredients that create that catalytic compound that actually helps
to restore you and provide that array of nutrients.
They're not going to have that.
definitely not.
they're only doing like a couple of our bonus ones.
Like they don't have anything of our actual core ingredients,
which I thought was kind of funny,
but I'm just saying that secret recipe.
It's starting to get recognized in the big realm that these are valid sources.
So I feel that when we do go forward building the business,
like some of these places like the Red Bull and the Arizona tea company are
already researching down that area.
So to have something that's already 10 years old researches with,
researched with testimonials behind it,
like it's a huge win-win collaboration just right there.
Yeah.
I actually spoke to a Red Bull exec yesterday about,
but not even about partnership with Red Bull specifically,
even though that collab might be a possibility.
Look,
stay tuned.
But we were actually discussing the aspects of just outsourcing the research
and development to a couple of different countries to be a third party,
to make the medical claims.
So we could say,
you know,
this,
this,
this company says these herbs help with this,
this,
and this,
and this,
which we have.
Yeah.
We do have a breakdown on some of them.
Like,
there is a dedicated research on some of them that have stuff like the
flavonoids have been proven to reduce inflammation and pain.
So any of the ones like,
so they actually,
there is some preliminary research put into these already,
having it in a full research development and having the entire core structure
have a breakdown on like what percentage of flavonoids and all of the,
there's another word I can't think of that does a different part of it.
There's certain chemicals that are known to reduce cancers that are in
there.
So all of these ingredients are actually in there and have been researched
and stuff that having it in a entire compiled file would be a huge backup
point.
Well,
and certified by a research company,
like a medical research company is what it would be too.
So just be that extra,
you know,
a extra boost,
which would also give us the medical markets in those countries,
which would be interesting,
but also keep us safe from having too much regulation with the FDA.
If that makes any sense,
because we are just providing a dry tea product at this point too.
but we plan on going to full liquids.
we want to do liquids and gas stations and everything just to make it
completely easy for people.
And that's when we'll start adding different flavors and,
and complete,
you know,
we can put out a whole drink line.
that's also why we want to collaborate with some of these other companies
though,
to just to utilize their distribution network,
bottling manufacturing,
procedures and stuff and such.
But,
we're looking into all these different aspects and it's really cool.
Just seeing it all come together,
the community really vibing with it and just helping people.
I mean,
doing something that,
you know,
is like really adding value to the people around you.
not only with health,
but now we have the financial benefit to it,
right?
Like we're providing it for a third of what they could get it for.
Oh yeah,
for sure.
I regularly,
just for me and my family,
it's easy.
A couple hundred plus all of the transportation to get it to the five
different stores that we get all the supplies,
definitely having it at all is achievable.
But I mean,
I do love,
it really does make a difference having something that,
you know,
makes a difference in people's lives.
I feel at that point in time,
there becomes a responsibility to the recipe.
I do love.
I was working with children before we really started all of this.
And,
you know,
I loved what I did there,
but then,
you know,
COVID hit and I've never been tempted to go back because I feel that this
way we're actually helping so many millions of people versus the
limited.
I was able to help on my own,
you know,
and that's the same true with every dragon ambassador that joins us is you
guys have in a unique sphere of influence and only you can possibly
bring that hope and that light and that restoration to that area.
And,
you know,
for us of us,
for those of us who do receive the benefits of the tea and it changes our
lives,
I feel that there does kind of become a responsibility to try to pass that
on to the world,
you know,
share the light,
but you know,
that's each their own.
That's just what I personally feel about it.
Yeah,
absolutely.
When you find something that works,
it's like,
you're obligated to tell your family and friends.
I was going to say,
I'm not real quick.
Sorry,
I'll let you go first and I'll say this.
Yeah,
go for it.
Go for it.
Yeah,
I was just going to say,
cause it aligns with knuckle bunnies were saying earlier that they thought
that one of the accounts might be shadow banned.
And I just,
I took a look on the,
while I was just listening and I know what the issue is.
And I only learned it my heart,
the hardware myself because obviously we've all got different things that
we're building like this elixir and we want the world to know about it.
but with platforms,
especially like X,
it's important that we understand the algorithm and what they support and what
they punish.
and one of the things with this platform that really bleeds you dry is if you put
links on posts that take you off the platform,
that they will restrict,
they'll reduce your reach until you reach shadow ban stage.
and one of the things in the algorithm,
I don't know if they've changed it yet,
but they said that they were going to work on changing it was if you interact
with an account that shadow banned,
that it can affect your account as well.
well I think they fixed that issue,
but what I was going to say is the way around it is if you're going to post,
let's just say the dragon juice elixir website,
you create your post and then you put it in the comment section.
and then the only the comment will be shadow ban,
but it has no effect on the reach of the original post.
so if in the future you're going to post about your discord,
for example,
you know,
write,
write your comment up the way that you would,
and then drop it in the comment section below,
and then your comment will get the reach it should get.
And then the actual post itself will just be,
targeted and it won't have any effect on your overall reach.
but yeah,
I just wanted to throw that in there because I know it's important.
Cheers guys.
That's so funny.
So as you were saying that,
like,
so I went to knuckle bunnies thing and I was like,
I was thinking like he needs a good pin tweet.
And then I was like,
you know what?
I need to fix my pin tweet and I was literally fixing it.
What you were describing.
So I actually just fixed that.
but yeah,
absolutely good.
good alpha right there because,
they do not want you taking people off this platform and they punish you
immediately.
So yeah,
that's the alpha.
Put the links in the comments after you make the post and,
and yeah,
make yourself a good pin tweet with a call to action and a good photo.
photos play well.
If you could do a video,
that's also good.
But,
yeah,
good pin tweet because then I can also,
I like to just randomly go to people who I'm in a room with.
I'll click on their profile and I'll share their pin tweet.
Just,
you know,
give them some love.
But if you don't got one,
I don't know what to share sometimes.
So yeah,
that's the alpha right there.
we got Pete in the house.
Welcome.
Welcome Pete.
We were just talking about reviews and I know you were a skeptic just like me
and you didn't want to try it for it first,
but you finally did try the elixir.
So say hi and tell us what you think.
Hey guys.
Hey tricky.
Hey rev.
Hey everybody down there.
I can't see everybody,
but hello.
Good morning.
yeah,
I just woke up,
haven't even had any coffee yet.
And,
you can see the bounce in my voice.
So good morning.
Isn't it great to wake up feeling good?
Man,
I'm kicking myself in the butt cause I didn't even do my own nineties for so long.
And now that I am,
I'm like,
Oh my gosh.
Right on.
Right on.
Damn.
A lot of people in the house.
I'd really like to know your testimonial,
Pete,
if you could,
could you give us a testimonial?
Well,
well,
okay.
I had a very serious car wreck,
had a lot of pain,
since 93,
done a lot.
Like you,
you backed into a pole type of thing?
Well,
it was,
I got run over by a car on my motorcycle,
but anyway,
I just want to put it in perspective,
but anyway,
back,
back to you.
Anyway,
did the whole hydrocodone thing,
got off of that finally,
still in a lot of pain and I do some pain meds and some other things.
And about a week ago,
I started doing the nighttime sleep tea and it's been helping a whole lot.
I've been getting up a lot less at night and,
getting up right now.
I'm sitting here zero pain and,
I gotta get some coffee in a minute,
but I wanted to jump in and make sure I didn't miss any of this.
What was the alpha you were talking about?
Tricky.
sorry.
What was that?
What was the alpha you were talking about when I first came in?
the alpha.
I don't know.
There's lots of alpha here,
but,
if you are a D five space donkey and you have your D five space donkey equipped
in this space,
you get a prize.
Also,
I'm going to be pulling another winner from someone who retweeted the space
and tag some friends because I didn't necessarily say to do that,
but hopefully you retweet every room you're in and tag some friends.
Right on.
Well,
you're talking about some alpha.
I forget it.
Somebody about checking yourself or something like that.
anyway,
nevermind.
It's a recorded space.
You can always go back.
I'm not sure what you're talking about.
Okay.
Okay.
Anyways,
hello everybody.
I'm going to get some coffee.
Welcome Pete.
He just woke up.
All right.
We need your review.
I love it.
But it's,
it's great to see,
you know,
how it just helps all these different people.
And like,
I think it's so immediate,
right?
You're like,
sleep.
Awesome.
And then like a couple of days later,
what,
like seven days later,
he's like,
I didn't even wake up in pain today.
Game changer.
Let's go.
You know,
thank you for jumping on the spot there,
Pete.
And,
and give us a testimonial with,
with no prior notice.
I appreciate that,
dude.
Well,
and yeah,
I appreciate he was even barely awake.
It was great testimonial.
The fact that he was coherent before coffee without pain.
Yeah.
A week ago,
he was not that coherent before.
I wanted to do a brief,
just a brief overview.
Cause you know,
the,
the reason why we actually continued with the T's with my testimonial.
So I actually was legally disabled guys.
So I had,
I basically survived a violent childhood and my body just completely attacked
itself with autoimmune and early onset fibromyalgia.
And within three years of doing doctor stuff,
they literally diagnosed me that my body attacks itself.
And I was legally disabled because I was so sick.
Like I couldn't even stand for 10 to 15 minutes without the room spinning.
And within,
and I do,
I do have a deep faith and I had been compiling stuff cause I was doing my dog
grooming and stuff at the time.
I had compiled all of the information and I was just like,
Oh my gosh,
I don't believe that I went through everything just to be left here to
basically die.
And at that point,
like I really heard a strong confirmation in my heart that like,
you know,
it doesn't work if you don't use it.
And I committed that day to actually trying the very first original,
original recipe I had compiled over the past previous year.
And from that point in time for the following three years,
I did not put one thing in the pot that didn't,
I did not know exactly what it was and hadn't done all the due diligent
research.
And over the following three years,
I actually created the recipe.
We still use now within six months of being on the,
on the elixirs.
I was completely off of disability within three years.
I had actually,
it had actually reversed my aging to the point that I had to get a new license
moving into town because the computers could not recognize me as the same
person.
So that's my personal testimonial with it.
And I do have tons of testimonials of other people because I would just share
it with other people.
Cause they were like,
wow,
we are out here.
I lost like 80 pounds in weight.
I was like out doing stuff and like,
wow,
why what's the change?
And I was like,
you can try this.
You got to try this,
you know?
And over time I helped one friend that had had ovarian cancer for the fifth
time.
We've helped people with multiple fused net,
fused discs in their necks,
environmental allergies,
you know,
tricky.
We got to help with the Crohn's disease was way later on,
but we've helped so many,
I've got to help so many people with that with throughout the last decade.
So that was how it all started and how we got here.
So I love all these fresh new testimonials and us growing together as a
business because not really a super physically social person.
So my limit reach was quite limited and together we are reaching literally all
over the world.
That's my bit of testimony.
If I can ever help you guys with distribution in the UK or near London,
I can certainly help with that.
I mean,
I've got,
I've got,
I've got,
I've got a friend who,
who travels around most of London.
And if he's not going that way,
he can go that way.
So him,
for him to do some bespoke drop-offs for me would,
would not cost a lot for me.
Bacon.
If you and I can connect after my move,
I would love to,
I really,
we promised people in England and we sent 13 packages to England.
And so it's on my heart that those were not able to get distributed to over
there.
And I'm more than happy to.
It's my fault for not reaching out to Shane.
Trick has been telling me for,
for months to reach out to Shane.
And I just,
you know what?
It is all right.
We'll just get some to your door.
And at this point in time,
those teas are months and months old.
We'll do it with the fresh mix and the fresh stuff with the fresh grind that works even better.
you know,
those were when I was able to get them around here before we,
I burned out three mixers.
The new recipe is way better anyway.
So like,
that's,
that's all,
it's all good.
It's all good.
Well,
I mean,
what I could do,
what I could do is give you a list of postal codes that would be potential drops.
And then anything that comes up within that postal code,
I can,
I can arrange that and it would cost you significantly less than trying to,
you know,
distribute it in other ways.
Yeah,
absolutely.
So we'll talk on the backend and get that all.
Yeah.
Cause that's what I'd like to do is just send,
I'd send you the pack pre done packages that just need to be distributed within your area.
Because we want everybody.
I mean,
you guys are working on,
we have quite a few people in UK that want to help build the business,
but haven't even got to try the teas yet.
And I feel that if you guys are going to be behind the teas,
you could,
if you should be able to feel an experience,
which you're talking about.
Yeah.
I just want to say real quick that you have to try it.
Talk is cheap.
You have to try it.
You have to get people to try it.
And,
you know,
all this talk about how it works,
it's fine.
But the whole thing is you have to get people to try it.
So they feel how it works.
That,
that's what I was,
before you came in,
Pete,
we were just talking about this and I was actually referring to you.
I didn't say your name or anything,
but I was talking about how I do think that's why we have the different structures.
Like I do feel that the capsules will be a good introduction to a lot of people
because it takes a little more effort to do the actual teas.
And that's the hard part,
but just popping a couple of healthy pills,
people are a lot more likely to do for a trial basis,
I feel.
And then once they feel that percentage,
just,
just like nine out of the 20 ingredients help so much,
then I feel just like you,
they're more inspired to try the real full patented,
the full mix.
Yeah.
Cause that's a sort of sad reality that we're in,
isn't it?
That we're sort of accustomed to taking tablets.
Cause that's just the way that the people who control our medical,
industry,
shall we say,
which shouldn't,
it shouldn't really be an industry,
but sadly it is,
and is designed.
And we also live in a time where there's so much,
we don't,
we just don't have time anymore,
do we?
That's sort of like the world we're in,
you know,
the rat race or whatever you want to call it.
And to be fair,
Rev,
when people are battling so many struggles,
it takes up even more time because it takes your energy and your energy is,
gives you time for everything,
you know?
So they might have time,
they don't have energy to do it.
But if we start them on the capsules and give them just a little boost,
well,
now they have a little more energy to invest in the next step.
Yeah,
that's it.
And that's what I was going to say as well.
Like the,
the therapeutic side of,
working on your own health,
like creating these teas yourself to sort of,
you know,
put it all,
put it all together to do something that's good for you is,
is a beautiful thing.
And it's really therapeutic and good for your mind as well,
as well as your body.
but it's also,
it opens your horizons to what else can I do for myself?
And then you start looking into the ingredients and seeing how they help and
thinking,
you know,
what else could help with what,
what else,
you know,
and that's,
that's the,
the game changer for this.
And I think web three did it for us on a financial and a connectivity level and
stuff like this does it on a health level as well.
So I think it's amazing.
I love that Rev.
And it's so true because you guys,
what he's saying is so true.
Once we start down this path of health,
like I said,
when I compiled that for these ingredients on the internal ingredients,
it doesn't stop there.
We also have external ingredients that help you on an external from anywhere from
growing nails,
growing hairs,
soft skin,
more collagen,
like the anti-aging to environmental things like natural bug repellents,
because some people who are on cancer medicines,
they can't use deep certain people on epileptic,
medicines can't use deep.
So they can't actually go out in the world and enjoy a summer's night by a
lake because they'd be attacked by mosquitoes where we've got a natural
protective barrier that actually has been tested by the leader leading
neurosurgeon of all of up here in the upper Northwest because one of my
clients had a severely disabled child and we had to test all the ingredients
before it could be used on her.
And so,
so just like Rev was saying,
after you work on the inside of feeling better,
then you do go,
what's next?
And we have answers for that within the business as well.
We have the physical external stuff,
the environmental stuff.
We have the pet stuff.
That's what's next is expanding the health into all of these other areas.
So you not only do you feel good on the inside,
now you feel good on the outside and now you feel able to go out and conquer
the world all in a healthy way.
And that is kind of what's a naturally next with once you start diving into
this.
Exactly.
And just to,
you know,
let's just look at some real quick statistics that the most expensive
medications are for uncurable diseases and the top three biggest killers on the
planet are drug smoking,
drinking and prescribed medications.
And if that doesn't tell you that we need to start looking at alternatives and
looking at who we trust and why,
then nothing will.
But yeah,
so that should give you an eye opener to be honest.
So yeah,
taking this into our own hands is definitely the way to go.
Pills,
pills are just so easy.
And if we can,
and the reason why they're so popular is because they're cheap to make,
right?
People are just convenient.
They want to be creatures of convenience and cost is the issue.
So when shipping is cheaper,
when production is cheaper and all that.
Yeah,
let's for,
let's for,
let's force the world into busyness and then capitalize on convenience.
It's so cool.
Yeah.
Right.
You know,
it's such a,
as much as I hate it and it's,
and it's damaging on every level,
you've got to admire that they've been clever about how they've done this to a
point where most people don't even realize the system that they're in.
Red.
It's not the,
I don't know.
It's not the day though,
Red.
I don't know.
Whoa,
whoa,
whoa.
Lots of feedback.
Lots of feedback.
Hold on.
Let me just be everyone real quick,
but it's not the they so much as it's us.
It's all of us.
You know,
we participate.
We were a part of it.
You vote with your dollar,
you vote with your time,
you know,
with your actions,
your energy.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Well,
and I don't know if it's the same in the UK,
Rev,
but here in the United States right now,
as it stands,
a doctor legally cannot die.
It cannot prescribe something that hasn't gone through those rigorous FDA measurements
that are not considered an actual like pill.
Like they can't not,
you have to go to naturopathy to have natural healing.
The doctors can't even prescribe natural healing right now.
And it's a fractured system.
And it's unfair because doctors come in a lot of doctors,
not all,
we know not all,
but a lot of doctors do come in because they have a heart to help people.
And then their own hands are tied about being able to offer things that they
know can help if they're not approved through the proper channels that make
money for the FDA.
I've got a good example of that.
Actually,
frustrating.
I've got a good example of that.
So I've got a friend and he is a forager.
And he,
he finds things like mushrooms and funguses and,
and all this sort of stuff that have health benefits.
And he's friends with a few doctors.
And you know,
they unofficially refer people to him.
But he is the forager.
He would only work with people that will take the,
the prescribed,
the prescription from the doctor and,
but supplement it with what he can provide with,
with,
with his mushrooms.
He won't work with people that are like,
I don't want to take like,
you know,
their,
their,
their medicine.
I want to do it,
blah,
blah,
blah,
blah,
blah.
he won't entertain it because he doesn't want to do it.
He doesn't want to have the,
you know,
the sort of the blood on his hands per se.
But he wants to make sure that he is assisting them with.
Yeah.
That's a beautiful,
because in my personal opinion,
the reason why these elixirs work so well is because they treat the body as one full system,
not as a partition analyzed or organs or body parts.
And I feel that right now,
that's currently that the way the medical system is,
is it's fractured.
There are doctors have amazing knowledge and amazing wisdom,
but it is specific like organs and broken bones and damages and diseases.
As far as the overall body health,
that does seem more than natural path.
And I feel when you're able right now,
both of them are completely,
unless you find unique places,
like what you were saying about the doctor,
that one friend of mine that we,
her cancer,
she had cancer for the fifth time,
ovarian cancer.
Within three months of being on the T's,
the tumor had reduced by 60% and went from cancerous to benign.
And her doctor was so impressed.
And she literally still smoked her unfiltered cigarettes through this whole process.
The only thing she changed was the T's.
And so the doctor literally asked for the recipe,
not for himself,
but he had a naturopathy wife because,
you know,
those are the only people that can even recommend it.
So it,
it literally is just a fracture in the system.
And until we heal that fracture,
we're not going to have full all on health,
but doctors definitely deserve their due.
And,
and I never want to pour any hate on them,
but always uplift every healer out there trying to do their best.
Yeah.
Well said,
actually,
cause yeah,
cause it is very multi-layered and you're absolutely right.
Many people become doctors to help people,
but obviously it can only utilize the,
the resources that they have and also operate under the conditions that they're in.
so that,
that,
you know,
that for the most part,
the hands are tied.
I was just sort of referring to the,
the pharmaceutical,
the pharmaceutical side where it isn't a healer as such.
It's a,
a treater of symptoms.
You know,
I don't take headache medication and it finds the problem that's causing the headache and treats that.
It just,
it just eases the symptoms enough for me to go to the store and purchase those or go to a doctor and get them every time.
Whereas,
you know,
natural remedies and herbs actually give you body,
your body,
what it needs to heal.
It doesn't,
it doesn't even need to know what,
what,
what is the cause because your body knows what,
what the cause is.
And it will,
it will,
it will give your body what it needs to,
to find the problem and,
and heal it naturally,
which is obviously the best route I think to take.
So I think it is,
I think it is amazing,
and a great way to,
to do things moving forward.
That's a beautiful way to put it,
Rev,
because that right there is the core of the catalytic compound is that,
because everybody's body is different.
Also everybody's body needs slight changes.
we're getting some feedback.
okay.
so everybody's body is completely different and all of the core minerals that we
need are different.
And the reason why the elixirs are so great is because we get to offer people
the best at all times.
We slightly rotate different ingredients in the elixirs.
So your body is not introduced to the exact same elements every time,
thus keeping your body from maintaining a tolerance level to the individual
ingredients so that it loses its reactivity.
You,
that's like like pills,
pills have the exact same component every single time.
So your body gets so used to it that now it needs a higher one and all of
that.
anyways,
but that being said,
the catalytic compound gives everybody's body exactly to choose what it needs
from it.
And it has,
and with the different variations,
it gets,
it keeps your body from acclimating as well so that you always get a high level
of responsiveness,
no matter if you use it month after month after month.
That's actually really smart.
to have a,
a way of having a variance within the recipe was,
was also keeping the recipe.
so that people are exposed to different dosages.
So they don't get used to the same dose of the same thing all the time.
And it actually has another really good clutch use now,
because we use a seasonal blend of fruits that keeps the cost manageable and
very effective.
But also if you have a specific allergy to a fruit,
now we can give you the one that doesn't have it right.
If we,
especially if we can have like two or three seasonal,
but what,
seasonal blends like that we move forward.
Yeah.
But if you're,
I can't have pineapple.
Okay.
We got you.
I can't have strawberry.
Well,
we got you,
you know,
like whatever your,
your allergens are,
we can kind of move around a little bit,
which is cool.
I love that point tricky.
And because so what the combination of what red was saying and what tricky was
saying,
red was talking about pharmacists and how important they are.
And they are incredibly important because they help us prevent medical,
crosses that could be dangerous.
So we have actually run the recipe through many different pharmacies.
And what we've done,
we do actually the base ingredients and all the teas that we are currently have
available,
have no reactivity with medicinal components.
We do have,
this is where our consultation comes in.
When tricky talks about you can come in and we can formulate a unique
ingredient for you or your community or whatever.
We do have other ones like that have additional antidepressant boosters,
additional for men,
additional stuff for women,
additional things.
And some of these compounds can actually have some medical reactivity.
So we're only going to make them on a unique person basis,
not an open source basis.
And so that's why it's great for our business to have the safe version,
as well as consultating for anything that needs to be a higher level up.
So just a super simple example on that one is the fenugreek.
I had a pre,
I had a pre diabetes where I had all the signs for diabetes and I had gestational
diabetes.
And so I used fenugreek to manage my blood sugars.
And so I don't even have to worry about it.
And I have had no worries about diabetes for the past,
like eight years because I've been managing it with my fenugreek.
However,
if someone is already on insulin,
they should not have the fenugreek because it manages your blood sugars so strong that you cannot just have it in our regular dosages.
So fenugreek is one that is not in our regular base.
However,
if this was a personal challenge you were facing,
we can make in your individual solution.
And that's why I love having the base version that's safe for everyone,
as well as the ability to expand for individual requirements.
Yeah,
absolutely.
It's cool to have it customizable and just the potential is huge going forward.
I think we're going to do our NFT drop here soon on mainnet Z and we're going to make it.
So if you have a certain number of our NFTs,
you're going to get a consultation for a specific elixir.
So we can customize something for you.
If you're considered,
if you're worried about like allergens or a certain health issue or you're an NFT project or a brand that would like to make an energy drink,
we got you.
That's coming.
I was going to say as well,
Amanda,
I think you've fallen into the category of protect at all costs.
I think what you're doing is too good and the powers that be may not like it.
So I think we need to put you in the protect at all costs category.
So I appreciate that.
We must protect you at all costs.
I mean,
it definitely helps that there's other like herbal teas and stuff out there.
You know what I mean?
And that's also why we are saying like,
we want to help you with energy,
sleep and pain,
right?
We don't say anything else.
We don't promise anything else,
right?
We just,
we were helping with those three things,
which affect everybody.
And if you happen to heal from your,
your things because your body is doing better and has the ingredients it needs to fight off the things that it needs to fight,
then that's just gravy.
You know what I mean?
So hopefully we don't get killed,
but yeah.
I have had one or two doctors get upset with us.
I had a client that had a million specialists and all kinds of surgeries and all kinds of problems.
And she,
we healed her eczema,
her asthma,
and she lost weight and didn't need to have her foot surgery.
And the doctor told her to stop doing it because if she kept doing it,
they couldn't do surgery.
My pharmacist is actually really upset because last year I spent $16,000 on medications and this year I spent $3,000.
Just amazing tricky.
And that's only,
and you've only been on it for the last like four months now.
I think we're going to five now,
five now.
Yeah.
Just look how strong it's going.
Well,
so actually I think maybe I'm at like 6,000,
but like 16 to 6,000.
Come on now.
That's crazy.
I haven't spent $10,000 on tea.
So this is,
that's a savings.
You've only been on it six months and you've gone less than half of the teas for a year.
That's insane.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean,
like there's a couple of things I have to take daily,
like my allergy meds and like my stomach med,
but like I used to take an extra stomach med when I wasn't feeling well.
I haven't done that in months.
I used to take prednisone when I got into a flare with my Crohn's and I would take prednisone for
seven to 10 days and it would maybe pound out,
you know,
my thing in like 10 days to two,
three weeks sometimes.
Now I double up on tea and three days later I'm usually fine.
Like that's,
that's insane.
The amount of that,
it helps better.
It works better than the,
the pharmaceuticals.
That poor lady that I told you that I met that has Crohn's disease.
She has been down for almost two weeks with a flare up.
I just,
my heart just goes out to her.
Yeah.
and I totally understand,
you know,
like I was there for years,
years.
Oh my God.
Thank you so much,
Amanda.
I really owe it to you.
I am going to make you a billionaire.
It's,
it's in a recorded space.
Red Bull,
you know,
for me,
like I just want enough money that I can keep creating awesome things.
Other than that,
we just want to help people.
and I love Amanda's.
I love being a partner with Amanda because she's like,
you know,
maybe next year we'll get this up and running.
And I'm like,
all right,
websites up.
she's like,
maybe this year we can get a house.
Okay.
Yeah.
You keep your,
you keep your loft.
You keep your goals.
Just the timeline that you're selected.
It's just great.
It's no pressure on me.
I can easily fucking smash those goals.
Let's go.
this is going to be a huge product.
I mean,
okay.
Red Bull made 10 billion profit last year worldwide.
in America alone,
we spent 17 billion on pain meds.
Right.
And we almost did the same thing for sleep medication.
This market in just America alone,
we could,
we could be producing enough where we could donate 10%.
It would be like two,
like one,
two or three billion.
A year back to smile boxes,
back to people suffering from cancer,
autoimmune diseases,
people feeling like they're lost,
you know,
hopeless.
Now those people are reinvigorated,
you know,
gifted with that light and hope on those smile.
We can do that on those smile boxes too.
Tricky.
I'm excited.
So we decided guys,
cause we've been doing our smile boxes at a one month dosage because,
you know,
we were hoping at one month that somebody would feel well enough that they could
participate.
Well,
we decided one month they're still kind of going through shock that we call it
like the T like T shock where there's feels so great.
They just try to accomplish everything in their life.
So we are going to move up to a two month for smile boxes.
So they've got that first month to just get over feeling amazing.
And then the second month to actually start focusing.
So I love that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We are.
We gotta,
we gotta nail it down.
I mean,
we've been sending between a three week and a five week supply to people
basically through the smile boxes.
It's been getting bigger and bigger,
but I think going to,
to a two or maybe ideally a three month supply,
I think that's really where it's at,
you know,
in three months we can really,
I don't want to say heal people,
but we can provide people with enough relief that they can really get back on track.
You know,
and I think that is just amazing on so many levels.
And to,
if I can incorporate this into all of our projects as well,
this is the,
like this could be the biggest opportunity in web three for our community as well.
If we can leverage it like that.
And that's how we're doing it.
We're not going to spend 300 million on marketing like Red Bull to make their 10 billion profit.
We're going to give away that tea.
And let the community push us up and,
and prop us up.
You know,
if you like what we're doing,
make a donation,
share our content,
give us a follow,
you know,
order some tea for a friend or for yourself.
Everything we do together is,
is how I want to do it.
I want to do it with the community.
I want to do it right.
I don't want to sell out to like a large corporation.
That's going to mess up the product.
And,
and I think if we're all working together,
then there's no stopping us,
you know,
then who are they going to take out?
They're going to take out me.
They're going to take out.
Why?
if we've got an ambassador of a hundred people,
and then there's an army behind them,
we can't be stopped.
I mean,
this has got real,
this has got real virality.
This has got real,
real,
real viral,
virality,
as a,
as a concept,
because like you say,
the more people who experience it,
they become advocates for,
for this thing.
And they,
they want to help other people.
And it's got a virality element to it,
where,
you know,
it could really grow really quickly.
And the people we're giving hope to are warriors who are fighting their best every day through the pain.
Once we take the pain away,
they get all that energy and all that fighting power to help change the world with us.
And when you see people who've been dealing with,
with stuff,
but still being productive,
get their fucking energy back.
You,
I mean,
look at my Twitter hours last year,
right?
Like you saw towards the end of the year,
how it,
it exploded.
And I even,
it was only a couple of months of being on the tease.
I had between my three accounts,
I had over 3,500 hours live in Twitter spaces on three different accounts.
And there was a period of time as well,
tricky where you'd actually been in Twitter spaces more times than there were hours in the day.
With that,
it was a 60 day space,
wasn't it?
He went to,
from having,
he went from,
being able to do spaces a few times a week to a few spaces at a time each week.
You've got such a dirty laugh about it.
I love it.
I had,
I had two times where I was recorded in different spaces,
giving the same speech on different accounts.
And that's happened,
that happened twice last year.
Not even planned,
just happened to line up with me being in the spaces.
Like,
that was so funny.
And speaking of the viral,
like Bacon was saying,
I feel bad sometimes because we get in some just random chats,
Tricky and I,
or somebody who knows Tricky,
we'll get in these chats and we'll just mention the tease,
just mention them.
And then boom,
the room blows up for a two hour tea chat.
Yeah.
Two hours later,
we've been talking about Elixir.
And I'm like,
I'm really sorry.
What was this space about?
And everybody's like,
don't be sorry.
We were asking.
But like,
I mean,
it kind of feels a little bad,
but I mean,
how can we also feel bad about sharing the hope with everyone too?
And I've gotten pretty good at being succinct with it.
Like I'll have a friend,
we'll be in a late night DGEN space,
you know,
just kind of hanging out,
having fun on a late night,
Friday night or whatever.
And,
and someone will say,
Oh man,
I'm doing okay.
I'm just getting some pain and blah,
blah,
blah.
And everyone just unanimously gets quiet.
They're just like tricky.
I'm like,
well I wasn't,
I'm not trying to shill.
I'm trying to hang out,
but yeah,
like,
you're right.
They need to know about this.
All right.
And then I got to go,
I go through the rundown real quick and then we get back to it.
Right.
It's almost painful to not say something.
Right.
We were in a space the other day and some lady was talking about her,
her disability pains.
And I'm like,
I hate to say it,
but you know,
yeah,
we were,
we were,
we were joking about it the other day.
someone was like,
my Meta mask is like,
is kind of like locked up right now.
And something like,
Hey,
tricky.
And then someone else goes,
Hey,
tricky.
You got an elixir for that.
And I'm like,
yeah,
yeah,
I got you,
man.
I'll send you some tea.
Okay.
We'll get your Meta mask fixed.
We got an elixir for everything.
Yeah.
That's it.
Well,
everyone's having a conversation.
You got tricky.
And Amanda's just throwing tea bags at people.
But no,
it's,
it's amazing.
and you know,
it's,
it must be even more amazing for you,
Amanda to,
you know,
how it all started to where it's at now.
And,
you know,
fair play to you as well,
tricky for,
you know,
expanding it the way you have and,
the community for being so willing to get behind you guys and,
really lift it up.
I mean,
we will have to bring this space to an end soon cause we have overran by quite a bit.
It was obviously well worth it.
I mean,
sorry to knuckle bunnies that came in at the beginning and have stayed all this time.
Big love to you guys.
I know it's been a very long time and you know,
this is what,
this is why people like you guys deserve all the followers in the world because you really do put the time and effort in and you're not just here for yourselves.
You know,
you're here to uplift the people around you and the industry around you.
And it's why it's why you guys will succeed because you've got that in,
in everything that you guys do.
And it's amazing.
you know,
don't just follow knuckle bunnies.
Make sure you follow his other account as well.
I think it's not in space now,
but it's just KB.
but you'll be able to find that for his main account as well.
So yeah,
I have a,
I have two giveaways.
I have a couple of giveaways.
First of all,
everybody here who's rocking a deep by space donkeys getting an NFT,
but also,
knuckle for,
for hanging out the whole time,
you send me your wallet,
you're going to get one as well.
And I pulled the winner as well.
the winner for the room was peaceful trees.
He was here most of the time.
and he,
yeah,
so he,
he tagged the space.
He re he was engaging.
yeah,
I want to,
I want to reward him for all the engagement that he did without us asking.
So I'm going to,
I'm going to do that.
And yeah,
much love to everybody for being here.
It's always a great space with the community communities.
I know we went late tonight,
so much love for everybody stuck,
you know,
stopping through.
So we have a great space.
I also wanted to say,
thank you guys for so much for letting us come up and geek out on the T's.
I just love what you guys do.
And of all of them,
the community communities has been one of my,
I consider you guys one of my home spaces.
I'm going to carry on speaking there,
bro,
but yeah,
we will.
I guess you can't hear wild there.
Yeah.
Well,
wild was saying she appreciates the opportunity and everything and absolutely much love wild.
We appreciate you stopping through.
you know,
this has been in a great space with,
with the,
knuckle bunny death squad and the D five space donkeys,
a little,
little bit of a little alpha.
so the D five space donkeys are a club for lovers of crypto and NFTs.
We started in October,
2021 at three dollars.
Now we're at 115.
You should have already scooped one.
Anyway,
that's it.
That's it for the D five space donkeys collaboration club for lovers of crypto and NFTs.
And we are really gung ho right now on wild world of dragons.
We've got that 3d mint dropping soon to our old holders and the new mint will be in a total 3d.
Absolutely beautiful.
But we are really,
really dedicated to the smile box charity and the wild world of dragons over this next six months to get that up and running,
to provide value to all of our communities.
And it's going to be a windfall for anyone holding a dragon or a donkey.
I'm not going to tell you anything else,
but you better go get you one.
do whatever you need to do.
I'm,
I over promise.
Sorry.
I under promise over deliver,
right?
That's,
that's pretty much my thing.
So I'm not going to tell you what's going to happen,
but when we hit milestones,
there are going to be some massive bonuses and benefits to the communities who are supporting,
everybody in the community communities,
but especially wild world of dragons and the defy space donkeys.
we see you guys supporting,
we see you guys showing up and that is not going unnoticed a hundred percent.
So definitely,
you know,
you guys are in the right place and I can't wait for this next year.
Not only do we have the bull run,
but we are launching a huge company that's going to absolutely shake up the medical sleep aid,
pain market,
energy drink,
everything.
The,
all the industries are about to just come begging to us for part of this action.
So let's freaking go.
back to you,
Rev,
play us out,
make us make,
let us know what we need to do to tap in tomorrow.
should we go around the room with some closing remarks?
What do you think?
Yeah,
absolutely.
We'll,
we'll go around and get some closing remarks.
Just a massive thank you to everyone.
and,
and,
just don't forget that we have the raffle as well on our website.
it is pinned at the top of the space.
If anyone is interested,
community communities dot XYZ forward slash raffle,
for the $15 tickets,
which are also NFTs as well.
so there probably won't be that many of those.
So they may have extra value later down the line as an NFT as well,
which would be awesome.
but we appreciate anyone that wants to participate in the book collaboration and just,
yeah,
thank you to you and Amanda and,
knuckle bunnies for tonight.
I just scooped one like 15 minutes ago.
You see?
Congratulations.
Appreciate it,
bro.
But yeah,
we'll move on to bacon.
If you've got any closing remarks,
sir,
speak now,
have a hold your peace.
Yeah,
it's actually a comment,
the,
the revolution made today.
it said,
less ego,
more let's go.
Let's go.
Love it.
Nice one brother.
But yeah,
Pete,
my friend,
thank you for joining us pre-coffee as well.
that's always a very dangerous game to play.
So I appreciate that.
I just want to say closing remarks and stuff.
Thanks for tricky.
And thanks for Amanda for,
you know,
bringing this stuff to my attention.
It's been really great.
And I'm sitting here the first time.
Well,
yesterday or the day before I woke up and I was in zero pain for the first time in quite a while.
You know?
you know,
and how long,
what's quite a while to you,
Pete?
20 years.
Wow.
So you were suffering from pain for 20 years just cause we were,
we were,
I'm sorry we were so late.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
We were so late.
We'll get there though,
bro.
We got you now and things are better.
And thank you for trying Pete.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to help you.
It is challenging this day.
And now I'm focused on helping other people with this because,
you know,
I mean,
I I'm the world's worst skeptic.
I don't believe anything.
Okay.
And until I see it.
and like my dad said,
whenever I came to something,
came in with him to,
with a project or something,
I said,
Pete,
put it in writing.
Okay.
And,
now that tricky is put up the website and everything like that.
And I've tried the nighttime and tried the daytime yesterday and,
or a couple of days ago.
And,
it's just great.
And,
and I just want to thank Rev and tricky for bringing me up and allowing me to
talk and,
and represent.
Thank you so much for sharing your story.
And I'm so glad you found something that helps you as well.
You know,
you've,
I love,
I've always loved speaking with you.
You've had a very incredible life so far.
I've been on many journeys.
You're a very open,
very open-minded person as well.
and it's,
I'm,
I'm,
it's good that you're skeptical because obviously we should be always.
And yeah,
you're a brilliant human being.
And I'm,
I'm,
I feel very fortunate personally to have met you.
you know,
keep being you,
my friend.
And,
I hope that the feeling's mutual,
Mickey,
the feeling's mutual.
Thank you,
brother.
I appreciate that.
But yeah,
so knuckle bunnies,
have you got any closing remarks,
guys?
Just want to say thanks for having us up here.
Been a great listening to what you guys got going on.
I'll definitely,
hook up with the,
the elixir dragons and,
you know,
we can chat in the background of what that,
but,
definitely see some,
some room for some,
collaboration there likely.
yeah.
And just,
anybody else who's,
into sitting through more spaces,
we got our space kicking off in about an hour,
the,
knuckle bunny death squad Friday,
four 20,
that is an open space.
So we're always happy to have other people come up and talk about what
they've got going on.
and then we also do our Wednesday space every Wednesday at 2 PM Pacific
standard time for the crypto crew,
where we talk about all things,
crypto and investing and defi,
and trading and all that good stuff.
So appreciate you guys having us by.
I've been great meeting with everyone and chatting with you all.

Work hard,
surround yourself by good people and you can get done what you need to get
done better than you'd expect.
Amen to that brother.
And,
yeah,
I'll stay up for that space.
So I'll definitely be there.

we grow together and show love to each other.
yeah,
thank you guys.
You've been amazing.
And,
definitely look forward to getting to know you guys more and more as time

sorry,
Christian has his hand up.
I don't know if it's Christian or Bacon first.
I'll let you two fight each other for that.
I'll fight him.
I'll fight him any day.
I just want to remind everyone.
Thanks.
Thanks for joining.
And,
I enjoyed tonight's space.
It was really laid back,
relaxed,
and,
I've got a glass of wine in my hands and I was really enjoying it.
Really enjoying that.
And,
if you want to hear more about us,
join our YouTube channel.
I've posted it in the comments.
we'd really like to have you join us and,
yeah,
we'll keep joining our spaces and I hope to see you next time.
Thanks for joining.
Bye bye.
Let's go.
Nice one,
Christian.
Yeah.
Christian is a legend and the police are one of the most humble human beings
on earth.
He did our website,
our smart contract for the book,
all the artwork.
he does so much in the back end.
The fact that he's got a glass of wine,
he should be working.
I'm just kidding,
but he does so much in the back end.
He's a legend.
So working as well.
I'm working them.
Always working,
working them.
That's how,
that's how legends do it.
And Hey Pete,
how did that website end up coming about?
Right?
Yeah.
No kidding.
what?
Two 30 in the morning,
you created the domain name and two hours later it was up and running.
And yeah,
no OCD for you,
tricky.
Right here.
here we are five days,
five days later.
We got 300 viewers on the site.
It's now mobile optimized.
It's about 10 pages long.
And there's a secret back page,
which is just like hacking the SEO algorithm.
If you want to know about that,
I probably should charge.
So yeah,
that's,
what's up.
Let's go just type in dragon juice anywhere or type in dragon juice,
elixir.com into a text or any social media.
And the full definition comes up the picture,
the image,
like it,
yeah,
it looks really slick right now.
I'm happy with it.
And thank you to tequila and a late night of being impatient.
I was just like,
I just need this thing.
Let's just do it.
And you know,
if you want something done,
right,
you got to do it yourself.
Sometimes I was waiting on a couple of different people to do things.
And it was like,
well,
I was going to have to,
you know,
tell them the words exactly anyway.
So might as well just do it myself.
Yeah.
So two,
two things.
One,
I want to go to bed now.
This is really late for me.
number two,
one of the things I think people are missing about the raffle is,
the,
the barriers are super,
super low and you can donate that to your favorite NFT.
so if you have like a favorite project or whatever,
you can participate in the raffle,
win the book page and basically give it away to you all to your favorite
community.
I love it.
I love it.
Do we have a winner for this week?
Yeah,
we're actually having a minimum of four,
four entries to make it a real raffle because if there's only two people
participating,
she's giving it away.
We've got loads of participants.
Don't listen to him.
We've got loads of participants.
Don't let him know.
Don't let him know how good the odds are.
I'm saying,
I'm saying that if there's a minimum of five,
four or five,
then,
then we're going to do the raffle.
That's what I'm saying.
Make it.
get,
get in while you can.
I'll go scoop a couple more raffle tickets so we can just run it.
Let's fucking run it.
I did scoop.
I did scoop one,
but I can wait till next week.
I can wait till next week,
I guess.
Yeah.
Well,
it was always tomorrow's day.
So if we,
Oh yeah,
there we go.
Yeah.
All right.
Everyone get your raffle tickets.
seriously,
a hundred,
$15 for a chance at 150 bucks basically.
Right?
Like,
yeah.
that's why we,
the,
the minimum should be like fricking 10 or 15.
Like it should be,
the minimum should be 10.
What,
what's going on here?
Mama five is fine.
The math is wrong.
Well,
then I'm buying five tickets every week.
Let's go.
All right,
let's go.
We'll have to record.
It's there.
I'm just kidding.
But no,
we appreciate it.
It does mean a lot that we get support from everyone and that people see what we're trying to accomplish.
and you know,
the goal for us is,
is the longterm vision of the togetherness and the community side of things.
you know,
we know we're in the right place.
We know that we want to always add more value than we take.
and we just have faith that on the financial side of things that will come in time.
if we provide the value that people feel is deserving of,
of a reward for the other side of that.
And that's where our mindset's always been.
And we've loved every second of it.
So yeah,
thank you everyone.
yeah,
I think we've got crypto tour.
have you got any closing remarks,
sir?
Yeah,
just,
another amazing space.
Thanks everyone for joining and make sure you're following everyone.
let's go.
I thought I was going to say for the love of God,
let me go to sleep.
For the love of God,
let's go to sleep.
Yeah,
definitely.
Only cause bacon months to pass the spare time.
It's only one o'clock.
It's only one o'clock.
I turned into a pumpkin at midnight.
You see?
Hey,
it's been a pumpkin for an hour.
It's only two over in Hawaii.
You know what I mean?
Like,
what are you doing?
It's one.
I am here.
Wait,
you guys,
you guys celebrate on time.
Hey everyone.
I absolutely love the space.
Thank you so much.
Knuckles.
I can't come to your space later.
I do.
I am in the middle of moving.
So we just jumped on here to support and,
you know,
get a little passionate.
You guys get me all hyped up and then I go work hard.
So I can't be there in your space today,
but after in about a week or so after the move,
things will settle down and I would love to come and support anybody else's
spaces and do what we can to help our whole everybody grow.
So thank you for this beautiful chat today,
guys.
And I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
Much love.
And thank you for coming right back up.
We got it.
So you could hear Rev and Rev could hear you.
Now it's good.
And yeah,
Knuckle,
we will definitely tap in more and we'll do that.
That tea talk Tuesday.
So we can,
we can really brainstorm.
But yeah,
Rev,
I appreciate the space as always.
We will see you tomorrow,
guys.
Play us out,
Rev.
I will do.
And yeah,
I still couldn't hear Amanda,
but I'm sure what she said was awesome.
But yes,
I will play us out and I will hopefully see everyone in the knuckle bunny space.
I'm looking forward to it.
Let's go.
You guys have been amazing.
