I don't know, I feel like we made some useful connections. I think it's necessary to come to IRL events to do that books.
Can you tell us what useful connections you made? I can tell you there was possibly one useful one. We don't even know if it's useful yet.
We don't even know if it's useful yet. We'll find out for lunch tomorrow. But, let's see, that's the only one that I could say was useful in any way. Other than that, I think you wasted a lot of time.
Do you think this is an away some a lot of time? Like IRL meetups and general-- Oh, I can't hear it. Repeat what you said. Do you think going to IRL events are just a waste of time?
Not all summer goods summer decent, but this one was Man like I thought one I thought Salana couldn't be hacked that's number one number two I didn't know there were hackers in Salana cuz I mean how could you have a hacker house if you're
protocols never been hacked. You can't get hacked. I don't understand this one. I really, really don't Alex. I think the best part was probably like the foundation part, the Salona Foundation. They had like at least 12 table set up each
targeting different markets. One was targeting gaming and other one was checking economics and other one was checking marketing. Each thing targeted towards what people like doing in web 3. I don't know if people are aware of what's happening but Salon is now giving out a ton of funds after fucking everyone over
So it has to go to those levels. You have to literally fuck everyone over for change to happen. So completely fucked everyone over. Now everyone's leaving salon and now they're desperately trying to get people to put stuff on top of their protocol to bring more people in. So I got to sit down with a couple of them.
And I was like, what are you guys looking for? And for the most part, this is more of the same dude. Like, not original thinkers whatsoever. It may be bearish on like what foundation invests in. I said, dude, you don't need to just build out all these products. We'll go in the fucking cherry HQ right now, build every single product you
one. No no one. All right hang on we're going on mute until we get we're going on mute until we get 100 comments, likes and retweets.
That's a bit aggressive there. On my space as I do 200 likes to under-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-#
Let me see. Yeah, you know what? I think 100's good outlets. Let me see. I'm fine with that. The event is still going on. I can just go walk in there with a muted mic and have better conversation. Anywhere on this speaker panel.
We gotta lay down the rules though, we're gonna do that.
We're gonna have to kick Pito off stage.
and uh oh no duke no duplicate comments please so don't if you're gonna sit in there commenting 45 times that doesn't really help that hurts and your account's probably gonna be shadow band so don't do that I recommend
If we get 50 comments of 50 repeats in the next 25 seconds, maybe we won't have to wait till it's 100.
man Frank he got my get into some shit after this event we told everyone we were Frank I was Frank
Alex was Frank and then we do let's say Alex say he's Frank I'll introduce myself as Kevin and the IQ the IQ I always say the IQ of what three it's got to be super low
That's why grifters grift so hard. Yo, the IQ was Salana. It makes it makes each maxes look like Einstein's like geniuses. Man, there are some dumb people like y'all
met Frank and you believe that I'm Frank or Alex is Frank how stupid could you be of course you're gonna get rug you're gonna click a link you're gonna get drained
What the...
We're at 46 comments, almost halfway there, then we'll start the space.
I just pinned a docks to the top of the space. This is a full docks. Check it out. That's
trank D got slumped, got laid out right outside of the Salona Hacker House and none of these Salona folks really helped them or anything.
Today, Saturday or Sunday in America.
Saturday, thumbs up, Sunday, thumbs down.
I saw about, I don't know, it's the, 450 people in this space. I saw two thumbs down. Those people are definitely salonafolk. I'm gonna go ahead and believe it's Saturday.

Yo! Yo! Yo! Much here! Big brother! What's going on, Bucks?
Can you, are we having technical difficulties still? Still have to, what happened? Not again.
Oh, what's going on?
Hello, Axie Sisters. Hello, Axie Sisters.
>> Hi, I'm a member. >> As the sister is currently having technical difficulties.
our microphone engineer, our sound engineers currently to get the Axis sisters mics working. Please bear with us.
I can't really hear. Hey Frank, where did you bump into Axie?
I was hosting today at the Salona Hacker House. I did a D-God and unit and dust and ordinals and BRC point deals that I have going on with VK Sharks that I haven't disclosed. I had a
performance today and Axi saw the performance when she was very impressed and asked me what my Twitter was and I told her I'm Frankie God and this is my Twitter she followed me. Hello Axi how are you today?
Our sound engineer will be right with you to fix, we'll come up with a resolution to fix your system in just a moment.
If I saw you walking around the hacker house the entire time, what are your thoughts on Salana? I know you've moved every collection off of the block
But I heard you're dropping a season three on Salana and then gonna be removing it to Arbitron. Is that correct?
I'll be moving over there. Wait, okay, money. So help me with the move. He's gonna be our new developer. Now, but bridge over.
You know Frank I really like what you're able to do guys, but I can't invest in China. If you move with it, Ethereum, maybe I'll buy one. Can you move him? And that he did. He bought just one.
I bought this one I farm living fuck out of it. Yeah, I get better and better than you Frank. I said do you guys and put a picture of a do you guys I? Sorry sitting in the nose, please watch me Let me ask you Frank. I was sitting on court side when I look like could you see my head from all the way out there?
Oh, we tried to zoom in and the zoom on our phones. Even unlike the full zoom.
We, uh, yeah, we just we tried you know we tried some things in the zoom on the camera. It wouldn't work. And, uh, uh, he, Eden was in the way. Uh, she wanted to sit up. Uh, her nose started bleeding.
That's for napkins and we still couldn't get you guys on the zoom. We zoomed in all the way and it was like it was just a spec. Yeah, like I saw you got the the funds raised to go to some more basketball games.
I didn't even think about that. You know, I just had these first-row tickets because I'm a famous Taiwanese rap star. But you gotta- What did you say? You're hanging on that, Frank. I like what you did. I'm gonna be dropping my own Bitcoin cardinals. I'm gonna be moving my defi-apes at every fucking chain I know.
And when there's a new chain, guess what? There's a new D5A and I'm gonna be there because you don't like how else am I gonna be buy these basketball tickets work for living hell no I'm gonna keep on liquidating on you dumb motherfuckers What a genius idea new chain new NFT So yeah, I've got this a lot of season
After we're up coming, I'm looking at sweet, woo-ee! I'm looking at Arbitram, give me! So I got a lot of things that I'm working on Frank and it's all inspired because of you. I've got to keep on launching on ETH and keep on transitioning to new blockchains because you know what they say? You can never be on just one blockchains.
There's liquidity everywhere you look around you just gotta look a little bit harder go to the next black chain when you suck up all that liquidity go to the next blocker, no value in return Actually, and when you want to fucking black chains you start going to fucking hotels and don't stop with the five stars
I'm gonna tell you how I get it in my life. You know you're up there. You're getting there Frank. I'm gonna tell you how I did it in my life. I go to these fucking hotels. The more stars, the better. All right, welcome. If you got one star, we're all signing me up. Why would I do that ask? Oh go ahead and ask me. Don't ask me. I'll give you the answer#
I'll tell you exactly what I do. I get that one-star hotel. It charged me $10 a room. I get my dumbass holders. $20 a room. I double my money on my holders again. So when you run out of blockchains, just know there are different ways to keep on liquidating on them. What's up, Frank?
Oh first of all, thanks for respecting the head.
I want to be as transparent as possible because I saw you guys were at the game My guys got jealous. I'm not gonna lie dude and K money was upset Red guy was upset so I went got a sweet room
one of our holders. I larped all over Twitter like it was like a D-God like use case kind of thing which we haven't been able to come up with yet and it was really the holder he said who wants to go to the suite and like we uh
We got together 90 D-gods and maybe a three-girl friends and we split that shit even with the girls. Like $15 each if you want to come so those were not project funds. Kevin would have never approved it.
I'm out of Taipei right now. You're watching basketball games. I'm building. What are you doing? I saw season three was coming out. You want to talk about it? When are you going to take my liquidity?
Oh, like season three is like man, it's just it's gonna be so special like a Taylor bring came on e and look up They saw the sneak peak that they'll tell you all about it
This is going to be something special like we're going to flip the board eights and We haven't been able to flip the mutants yet. We're nowhere near a dookie We flip doodles we flip
We flip the doodles dude. We even flip the clone eggs and they've gotten Nike We we came to polygon now and we're going to partner with the NFL Disney Starbucks. We don't even know where to start
Well, that's great, Frank. What's it going to take for you to come out to Taipei? I know you're a crack developer developing all sorts of things. Like all the products you put on on the blockchain, like NFTs, that do nothing.
I can see the need for more of these. So I'm really looking forward to season three more NFTs. We've got your ordinals. I was really excited for them. Your yutes. Now I can all under claim anymore dust. Can't dump them anymore. So what do you...
What it would take for you to come out the Taipei, you know, where people actually at the ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha#
I'm going to need plain tickets, hotels for 37 dudes, two girls, all expenses paid for 37 dudes and two girls. That number could go
up based off of need and we might need to bring more people. If my sugar daddy, my will, Poke Cubs, we won't need you to just pay for 37, it'll be like 25
I'm not going to be a big fan of the game.
and now we're ready to launch season three, which is not ready. I was on a call before that tweet and someone had brought it up as an idea and I thought it was such a good idea so I tweeted it but we haven't even started yet.
Yo books We think you think it's weird that we don't see a lot of like founders at these hacker houses Like you see them at basketball games and not hacker houses like their visions may not be is what I thought they were I give my vision was to like develop shit and call myself a tech company wouldn't like a hacker house
be like the Super Bowl for me like I'm going every single one of these things and not basketball games. Do you take that as like a spit in the face when you see like founders? And Vulture did it as well. He put himself in the front row seats. Yeah, but you can't you can't compare Vulture. Yeah, exactly. Put himself in the front row seats.
Boltura was flying first class while Boltura's holders were taking a greyhound boat so I feel like and the founders are gonna come out to these events and they're gonna come by boat the holders got to fly first class so
It's going to be a tough one, man. That's why you don't see them out here. There's no money to be made. Now, if they were like double charging you for hotel rooms and how to deal with the airline agency, we're instead of like your economy ticket being $400, the $800, then you see them out here.
Yeah, imagine dude we had like a founder that was actually dedicated to Cryptos like how to vision so clear that could be like yeah I see that cryptos are going to go places and with my vision I'm gonna actually speed that up and maybe other people benefit from it, but it's gonna come down to my vision and
I'm not going to go deviate into basketball games, I'm going to go to every single hacker house and share my idea with people that are actually trying to progress the technology. All this is a technological advancement of humanity, switching from beyond to crypto. Where did NFTs kind of tie into
that. Still I think it's still being tossed around. Everyone can agree with that. I'm not even going to talk about that. But what it what isn't being tossed around. Crypto will replace Fiat. So I think it would be very like inspirational almost as someone like, dude, you know what's really sad books? I look at these people at the hacker house and they look up to those type of people.
I'm just like you realize like they would not be anywhere without like you're the reason why they're at where they're at like just think myself like it's the whole narrative it's backwards you know the people that are actually putting the code on you know doing the art building the community all the ones that should be rewarded but instead we have people that are just finding
like this is what they're good at. So everyone's, they're very good at finding like nooks and crevices that haven't been tapped into and that's what they're good at. But are they good at like, no, no, they're not. They're, it's bad. They're good on taking on like, I guess you could say risk.
And it's disappointing. So I look for some founders to start coming up and just flipping these founders like with ease. The bar is so low. I mean when you've got my favorite founder posting non-stop basketball games on which he paid with the mint finds that were raised instead of like using the mint funds to like
to get back to the community and say, "I get back to myself. I deserve this." I look for like that, that's very low effort. It's just a matter of like someone like you books, for instance, putting art on a blockchain. It would be something that's similar or creating a meme token, creating a D5 protocol. I mean, you have all the resources around you.
The thing is, when I look at much, this is what I look at much, right? He did like 15 fucking projects and web 3 and counting. He really found them. He finds people to his found them. I think early days, he did found projects. But now he's more like an advisor and now he wants to tie
is face the things and so I think there comes power with that right tying your face to a product if it's a successful product I see it day in and day out even if it's almost an unsuccessful product I see it back by I see it time in time and time again and I'm surprised you have
not launch that product because of what you do, like the way you market shit, like share information, it's like it's very hard to even push back on that because like the advantage you get from for me being financially incentivized to support the other idea doesn't matter how great your idea you could be could perfectly write books
But if you are fucking with my bags, you're wrong. 10 times out of 10. I want my bags to go up. That's priority number one. So with that in mind, like you launching a product, it doesn't matter how the product does. It goes up, it goes down. I do, we talk to a psychedelics anonymous person. And he was being like, getting upset that I was kind of like, shitting on it.
like to. It's just when I got Boltrus in front row seat, meanwhile I got this person coming in at the hacker house adding value into the ecosystem. Meanwhile I got Boltrus extracting value out of the ecosystem. It's like the narrative
it's completely backwards at the moment. And now I got said, I guarantee there's going to be people in the space that will become better versions. That's what happens, right? He may have had progressions always just like someone's like a trailblazer for 10 feet. And I'm like, "Hey, thanks for trailblazing the 10 feet. I'll do the next 10 feet." And then boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom#
way it works. You can look at it and think of it like pyramids, like building pyramids, like hey thanks for putting that block down, I'll put the next one next one next, next, next, next, next. But right now, dude, when I look at the founders of the space, the biggest founders of the space, dude, dude, I wouldn't even want to buy an FTC in this. Like, I see even fucking founders#
I feel like disgusted, dude. I actually feel disgusted. Meanwhile, I look at people that are participating in the community, such as these hacker house events. Get no rewards. None, dude. I don't know. I think more, I think I would like to see more people that I believe in take on more risk because the people I don't
don't believe on take on so much risk. They take on so much risk because they don't give a fuck about anyone. They only give a fuck about themselves and that's how they're able to take on so much risk. So I don't want people that give a fuck about other people to take on risk. That's my message to you.
