Like heavy artillery, bacon sandwich, co-hosts,
The mental artillery, play in the week,
Ex marks our territory, stories unfold,
Shaking our narrative, no allegory.
Community of communities, we rise,
Big spaces, ours and truths, they disguise,
Fighting Saturdays, voices amplify,
Together we're strong, unities are gone.
Thy revolution, words like heavy artillery,
Bacon sandwich, co-hosts,
We're in the way,
Territory, stories unfold,
Shaking our narrative, no allegory.
Community of communities, we rise,
Big spaces, buzz and truth, they disguise,
Fighting Saturdays, voices amplify,
Together we're strong, unities are gone.
Friday's live with discussion,
Minds, actions, whining Saturdays,
Replay thoughts, aim, choice, rhyme,
From dark to dawn, follow the growth line,
Any spaces, inner faces the shrine,
Mental health is spotlight,
No need for stage five,
Communities, talk spares, keeping it bright,
And days to keep you soothing,
Toes, healing and nightlight,
Without collective strength,
You just ignites them.
The power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power of the power
Community of Communities, we rise
Picked spaces, bars and trees, they disguise
Eyes are at ways, voices simplify
To kill the worst song, unities are died
Thy revolution, words like heavy artillery
Bacon sandwich, co-hosting, mental artillery
Late in the week, X marks our territory
Stories unfold, shaking our narrative, no allegory

Together we're strong, unity's our guide
Friday's live with discussion

Good afternoon, happy Saturday
Welcome to the Community of Communities Web 3 space
I hope everyone is having a great weekend so far
I am super excited for this space tonight
I hope you guys are too
So thank you to everyone that's jumped in the room already
Thank you to everyone that's dropped down to that purple pill in the bottom right corner

We definitely appreciate you legends
As always, we will quickly introduce our core team
And then we will introduce our amazing guest for tonight
Who is Thrive Protocol
And we'll dive into who that is in just a moment
Without further ado
The Bacon Sandwich
Happy Saturday, sir
How are we?
Hey, what's up boys and girls?
Yeah, I'm good
I've had a really busy day today
Really busy day
The pub have just started their festivities at 9pm
Reminded me that the space is about to start
But I look forward to tonight
I don't know much about Thrive
So I'm interested to hear from Matt to tell us all about Thrive
And what it's all about
Yeah, absolutely
Well, glad you are well, my friend
Absolutely looking forward to tonight
And yes, to be honest
I hadn't heard too much about Thrive myself
But in mentioning that we were featuring you guys tonight
I couldn't find many people who hadn't heard about them
So we were all the more excited to get on stage
Connect with them
And find out how we haven't seen you guys personally
But definitely looking forward to learning about
Why many people do know about you guys
And what it is that you guys do in Web3
But first and foremost
Matt, thank you for joining us
Appreciate it very much
And happy Saturday
How are we?
Thank you so much
Yes, this is Matt behind the Thrive account
Happy Saturday to you as well
Although in Web3
I mean, every day is a weekday, isn't it?
So, you know
We just, we work on the weekends
We work 24-7
But that's okay
Because we love what we do
So yeah, I'm doing great
And looking forward to chatting with you
About Thrive
And our $7 million
For impactful projects and people
Hopefully this conversation
Doesn't feel like work
So we can have a good, nice chat
Yeah, a million percent
That is absolutely the goal
But no, yeah
We are super excited
You know, I appreciate you guys
Joining us tonight
And, you know
I love the idea of that
Because community communities
We're all about
Impact, utility
Purpose, passion
And helping people find their passion
But also uplifting projects
That have a purpose
Beyond what it is that they've built
So that we can all work together
To help make a difference in the world
So the fact that you guys
Are built around
Helping support that
And also provide funds
For projects to be able to accomplish
That is super exciting
So yeah, no
First and foremost
What we normally do
Is we ask people
Just to give a brief introduction
To who they are
And a little bit about
Your project
I mean, this is a two-hour space
We normally feature two guests
For one hour each
We only have you guys tonight
So there's absolutely no rush
We can take our time
Dive into different things
Break down what it is
That you guys do
So if you want to give us
A brief introduction
To who you are first
Matt, first and foremost
That would be awesome
Yeah, absolutely
My name is Matt Carano
I am the head of content
At Thrive Protocol
And I'm a crypto OG
I've been in the space a long time
I've seen a lot of things
First, you know
Fell in love with Bitcoin
When I read the white paper
A long time ago
It took a couple times
To really figure out
The implications
But once I did
I was like, oh man
This is the way
And the reason why
It so much affected me
It's liberty technology
That's really what matters
To me most
Is a future of human liberty
And Bitcoin really represented
That for me
And I started working
For a Bitcoin ATM company
For a while
And then eventually
Found myself in Web3
You know, I was very early on
I was in the ninth ever ICO
I was part of the
Parity Multisig Wallet hack
That stole 47,000 ETH
From Parity Multisig Wallet
That we were using
It was a big exploit then
So, and then, you know
Been working
Worked on some other
Like kind of OG crypto projects
Until I found myself with Thrive
What happened was
So I was working for my last project
Until about December last year
Kind of got burned out
And took a few months off
Through a mutual friend
Ran into the CEO of my company
Daniel Jacobs
Brilliant guy
Awesome guy
We hit it off
Talked for a few weeks
And was like
How does this
How can we sort of
Make this work
And Thrive
Hadn't really marketed
Itself before
And I'll kind of explain
How that works
But in general
Like Thrive
Partners with top ecosystems
And they allocate funds to us
And in turn
We allocate those
To productive
And people
So we kind of market
Our partnerships
But we never really
Marketed ourselves
Daniel brought me on
It was to start
Doing that
We're kind of coming
Out of the shadows a bit
Which is why I'm on this
Like space tour
Going from space to space
All across this great land
And telling people about Thrive
So that's me
And then Thrive
As I mentioned
I'll just give you
Kind of the quick overview
We can get into details
So you kind of get a sense
Like I said
We partner with
Top ecosystems
They allocate funds
Through their treasury
Currently we have
As I mentioned
70 million dollars
That we're using
For impactful people
Impactful projects
Creating real value
And that's builders
But not just that
It's also creators
And promoters
Even participants
Basically everybody
Can take part in Thrive
And I'll talk about that too
If you're creating value
Then Thrive is for you
And how it works
We partner with
These ecosystems
As much as it doesn't
As much as it sounds
Like a great project
A great problem to have
These ecosystems
Hundreds of millions
Of dollars
I don't know
Billions of dollars
In their treasury
And ecosystems
That we partner with
Have included
And include
Just tons of them
But they have this problem
They have all this
This funding
In their treasury
And they have to spend it
In order to build
Their community
They got to spend it
On new technology
Or to attract great apps
To build community
They have to
If they do a bad job
Spending it
They're going to
Kill their community
Like if they're not
Getting a positive
Return on their investment
From the majority
Their treasury spends
They're going to
Kill their community
And you see that a lot
There's definitely
Barren bull market
Fluctuations of course
But like I've seen
I've been in here
A long time
Dows collapse
Become defunct
Or kind of ghost towns
They don't
It's really hard
To manage that kind
Of funding
That's where
Thrive fits in
We are vastly
More efficient
At allocating
Their funding
Than they are
And I know
That sounds crazy
But I'll tell you why
So say we run
Grants program
For a large ecosystem
And they would
Allocate the funds
Well we would
Handle all of
The process
Of finding the
RFP process
Taking the
Applications
Good at those
Like we know
In my company
From grants
I actually
Worked for
For a while
During Gitcoin's
Token launch
I think it was
I did all the
Content for
That launch
Back in the
So we know
How to like
Real value
And something
That Thrive
That no one
Contribution
That happens
Through Thrive
And when I
Say contribution
An application
For funding
A milestone
Submission
And we also
Do community
Engagement
So it could
Be you know
Some tokens
Cool things
What it is
After it gets
Through our
Decentralized
Reviewer network
And we call
Those reviewers
Eyes on it
The project
Were going
For example
There's like
Three milestones
And funding
Gets unlocked
They submit
Their first
Maybe it's
Like deploy
On mainnet
Or something
Are submitting
Their milestone
With proof
And they're
Then funding
Gets released
Then thumbs
It doesn't
Get released
And like I
Happens with
Every single
Contribution
Through Thrive
Goes through
Because of
Can ensure
Allocation
Ecosystems
That comes
Spent through
Something that
Is creating
And impact
Cool thing
Ecosystems
This partnership
With Thrive
Funding to
Of dollars
To allocate
Of thousands
Of dollars
That's still
Saying it's
But that's
Of dollars
After that
An advisory
Between us
What projects
Create the
Most value
For funding
Making sure
The allocations
That actually
Did something
Created value
The ecosystem
Is looking
