Wait, freaking Danny is rugging me.
He's like, oh, like MySpace used to start at 1130.
And now they're like, oh, can you just push them back till noon?
Because we're doing Monday in the mornings on Thursdays now.
And we'll just end it and send people out.
They're still going.
They're just, they're still going they're just they're still going their apps i think it's on purpose what do you think bill what's what's happening here it is on purpose they're trying to
hoard the community i think that um the real ones are here though to be honest
they're like it's a covert mission they're like oh yeah just start it and we'll
we'll definitely we'll definitely send people over they're like oh dude but do that this time
and then we'll tell everyone to go over to your spaces like they're definitely not yeah and also
that is going to be spinning the wheel non-stop now it's going to be a full juice fest that just
like everyone gets a prize the The bigger wheel comes out.
Yeah.
Like now we start the real fun.
Dude, apparently also,
apparently Keone was roasting Steve on Spaces.
Were you watching?
Yeah, I did catch that a little bit.
He used the meme format where he's like,
you know, the car that gets like, i have a car and it got broken into and
then i saw the picture of steve and then they they left it or whatever wait wait the the the what
like the meme format where it's like my car got broken into dude it's a car dude not a car i love
how i didn't even need to do a punchline there because I was searching for a punchline, but my accent made it, so that's perfect.
The car.
We're good.
Dude, I love that song.
That song really set us off on the right.
That's great.
It's Steely Dan or whatever.
Yeah, nice.
No, no, dude.
That's Macklemore.
You didn't know that that was sent you Macklemore.
That shit dropped last week
what's that line where it's like i got bullied in the sixth grade or whatever it is now now that i
was gay
wait wait wait hold on let me see what i'm just like typing on Spotify Malcolm or gay When I was in the third grade
I thought that I was gay
Because I could draw
Dang it
That's aura farming
Before it even existed
To just open my set
Oh wait No actually that one was steely dan that's crazy steely dan made that one and
macklemore was the other people always get those two mixed up that's like classic they do i love
those were the original like they would get session musicians in and just drive them and
just make them do like a hundred different versions
before that was even a thing.
People hated them, but they got great music out of it.
Wait, what are you talking about?
Steely Dan.
It's Walter Becker and Donald Fagan, two of these producers,
and they'd get in the best musicians in the world to do their albums.
And then they'd just have a guitarist in there
and tell them to do it like a hundred different times.
And they'd be like, no, that was wrong.
You didn't hit it quite on the groove there.
Like redo it.
And they'd be in there for like weeks,
just like doing drugs and just like trying to get the perfect guitar tech.
That's actually kind of based.
Like I bet, um, I've always, I've, yeah, I've always thought,
I bet people don't do that anymore.
I want to be that guy.
I feel like when they make these Netflix shows, they're like, ah, yeah, fuck it.
There's no way.
Because they're just so like, oh, we have to flip a profit.
They're like, our budget's not low.
I mean, our budget's not high.
So we don't have time to be doing 1,000 cuts.
Yeah. And I'd be like,
oh, you know, it was a hard day.
You had to come in early.
Just go rest in your trailer for the next four days,
and then come back,
and we'll try it again when you're ready.
But I bet a Quentin Tarantino movie
is probably still kind of that vibe.
Yeah, I bet he drives them really hard.
Yeah, dude, he drives them real hard.
So hot. really hard yeah dude he drives them real hard so hot dude he drives them so hard
goals honestly to be driven that hard wait dude this is crazy because this is so ridiculous
because i'm about to order food and i'm on doDash and I want to get a burger from Five Guys, get a cheeseburger, and it's buy one, get one free for a cheeseburger.
And there's no way I want two cheeseburgers. So like I'm about to just, do you see my dilemma? Like, should I get two cheeseburgers?
Yeah, absolutely. Get two cheeseburgers and the hack, since the second one's free, is just delete the bun from the second one and put the extra protein on the first one.
Dude, it's already so many calories though. I think a lot of people make the mistake where they do too many calories because there's protein.
many calories because there's protein. Like, dude, if I ate, I think, I think I'm about to
have like 1500 calories in the meal. Like I don't think, I don't think I can add any more,
even if we want a better protein ratio, bro. I also read, uh, there was this like report and
it was like five guys, burgers and fries are the least healthy of like all fast food burgers
and ever since i read that it's i've been wanting one so bad so um it's just so greasy man when you
get the bag of fries and it's just half wet just disgusting i love it i think it's gonna make me
get two burgers good give the other one to intern brah he
needs some calories he's looking skinny uh i did i had some good intern brah bait uh the other day
he actually he did an ama wait actually spam we can bring you in this conversation um intern brah
did an ama and he said ask me anything i'm on the bus or something i'm bored
and i said who's more athletic you or intern and enter i thought i would spark a conversation
intern broad gate didn't didn't really answer the question like he answered it without answering
but spam what would you say who do you think's more athletic definitely intern um intern bra is a bit like the the spongebob character that's like
every morning i break my arms every afternoon i break my legs paper paper skin glass bones
yeah nice wait this thing is forcing me to buy a second cheeseburger i don't want you know that's funny
and in my area so i live in california and it's always either on doordash or uber eats
the one place that always has buy one get one free is shake shack and i'm forced to get two
burgers every time oh you know what i'm doing i'm getting a little cheeseburger but then paying extra for an extra patty but this is so
ridiculous because paying for the like the price difference between the little cheeseburger which
is just one patty and the regular cheeseburger which is two patties the price difference between
these is about two dollars and 40 cents but then it's three dollars to add the extra patty to the second, to, to the little cheeseburger.
So I'm actually paying like a 50 cent premium to get an entire less cheeseburger, which is, uh, that just shows that the market is not rational.
Right.
So, um, anyways, I think I need to like order this before i can actually pay attention but maybe
we can um maybe we can properly intro uh the lfj team uh we do have spam here hello what's up spam
mr uh mr mr mr monad games how um i don't know if anyone hasn't seen the monad games go check
out pipeline they posted it uh last week i think and you know they did cool cypher stuff sweet production if you haven't
checked that definitely do but one of the participants in the monad games was possibly
spam uh spam just reflecting on it how was it uh while shooting and then how how did you think the
rollout um and everything was for the launch of the video?
Yeah, no, for sure. Shooting it was pretty cool. We just like pulled up to this warehouse,
had no idea what to expect. Juicet did like a good job of just not letting us know
any of the events ahead of time. So like, as they came up and as we were doing them,
we were just like learning about it in real time. And then I
didn't know how like the full edited scene was gonna go like
the full video, but I was very impressed with what Savant was
able to cook up. And I think he clipped it really well. And then
obviously, yeah, like when we were all watching it together on
like the discord and Twitch, a little watch along was super fun.
And then the Cypher as well was a pretty nice touch.
People were going pretty crazy on that.
Nice. That's awesome.
What did you think about the scoring system?
What did you think about the scoring system?
Did you think it was fair?
Yeah, it was like, I don't know,
it was tough because it was like winner take all
for almost all the events.
And so it's just like, I guess it's true Ricky Bobby,
if you ain't first, you're last.
But yeah, honestly, looking back, I definitely should have just like full sent it and
ate the chip as well to just stack as many points from that challenge and then just
you know have to suffer afterwards um but yeah i was really surprised when uh
when danny pulled through and ended up winning it all. He had a rough start to begin and then just came back from behind.
Nice.
I love how you've adopted the Shiesty as almost your new persona
and your character.
It's pretty ever-evolving span.
Yes, it's some great character growth.
It really shows my my journey
through the web 3 space um but no i i love putting the the shiesty and the mog glasses on especially
with the the lfj chain which we may or may not be ordering a few more of um but yeah just repping
that and hitting up like live streams and stuff it's pretty fun nice that's awesome all right cool um yeah shout out spam uh we do have also uncertain funny enough
uncertain and i uh we like sat like next to each other kind of like one row behind each other on a
plane for a few hours and there was like he was sitting next to these ridiculous people who were just like so drunk and being like insane uh uncertain what's up do you remember that
that was what was going on there yeah that was that was wild and it was like post post bangkok
both of us just wanted to get the hell home you know a little bit of a hangover just tired whatever
getting on the plane and those guys they must have been eight to nine beers
deep each when they sat down and these guys what were they were they german
they were something something something it was it was a very you know just like you know you know
the german language just sounds so aggressive when they could be saying the nicest things to
each other they had no self-awareness at all.
They were screaming at each other.
They were wrestling.
You know what it reminded me of?
One of those viral Instagram, like that new combat sports
where the people are tied into their seatbelts
and they're forced to beat each other up.
And that's what it felt like,
where they were just putting each other in headlocks.
They were just being obnoxious, yelling at people that they couldn't put their luggage up in the bins when there was plenty of room.
But they were like, oh, just kidding, just kidding.
It was very weird.
The entire flight, they did not shut up.
How long was the flight?
I think it was three hours from Bangkok to Hong Kong.
And it was just obnoxious.
Yeah, I remember that.
That was hilarious.
Nice. Yeah, they were in their own little world. But i feel like it would have been fun to be with them oh for sure
yeah and you like somehow spoke german and like i also didn't realize that like they i didn't
realize you can sneak on that many beers onto a plane because he kept so they showed up piss drunk
they weren't ordering any beers from the hostess uh there on the plane
they were just kept they just kept pulling beers non-stop out of the backpack i just i was like
dude it's like that it's like that uh wade boggs episode of it's always sunny yeah just never
ending beers dude i guess also like um if you are just taking a weird flight, like, what was the flight from?
It was from...
Bangkok, Hong Kong, if I remember correctly.
Okay, yeah, Bangkok to Hong Kong.
And then you, like, speak German.
You're probably just like, yeah, I bet, like, nobody around us can understand what we're saying.
So you just feel like you can just kind of, like, you almost feel like you're in private.
So you're just saying whatever you want.
100%. Like, just like, like you almost feel like you're in private. So you're just saying whatever you want.
100%. Like just like,
we can be absurd.
100%.
Secret languages are the best at conferences,
I can confirm.
Yeah, you always do that with,
you and your Italian mafia,
you guys just,
you're sitting right next to me speaking in English
and then they just switch to Italian.
I was like,
what the fuck are you guys saying?
Like, don't do this.
Dude, Davide, dude dude you have the best accent it's just actually incredible like i'm i'm always in awe when i talk to you
it's part of the role
makes people keep listening to you dude it's incredible wait bill monday what's up
you guys you guys are competing for the two
best accents on the on the on the panel right now uh yeah hey uh yeah but i don't have a special
language he has a special language right right wait can you speak some italian for us me no yes please do it i just busted out some perfect italiana ciao ciao ciao
the italian ads are also very active very very very talkative community dude uh do they
yeah italians love to talk you guys you talk with your hands you like to go to
dinner and sit down stay there for like four hours am i right what are some other classic
stereotypes about italians that are actually true gang mob gang mob stuff mafia stuff mafia yeah
that's cool mafia stuff pasta david david had like the biggest culture shock in i forget i think it was
monad madness in new york oh my god the pizza place oh yeah the vodka sauce that's a scam
yeah he's like what the hell is vodka sauce and i was like what like how is this not known
it was hilarious um wait okay so uh wait what do you think about the pizza in New York compared to the pizza in Italy?
All my friends also agree with my line that
New York pepperoni pizza is amazing, but it's not a pizza, and that's why we love it.
It's a different product, and it's amazing, and whenever I go to New York, I get two slices.
Oh, wait, so what is the...
Right, because do you guys like margarita pizza?
Like, that's the default?
Yeah.
Also white.
But Guarganzola, Quattro Formaggi is the best for me.
I love Gorgonzola and white pizzas over tomato ones.
Yeah, this is...
In the South, they like a lot of tomato.
In the North, they do a bit differently.
Wait, wait, so do you even call it a margarita pizza or is that just pizza in Italy?
No, margarita is just tomato and nothing else on top. Tome and mozzarella.
As soon as you add an item on top everything changes name and we all know names of these under of this 20 30 varieties
wait wait can you order an american pizza slice in italy they'll put pineapple probably but it's
forbidden i kind of want to go to italy and be like hi can i get a slice of pizza? Not a margarita.
I want the real thing.
You and Tunes, you and Danny need to do that content that goes around
where that kid goes to Italy and he cuts his pasta with scissors.
He goes and puts something in his coffee.
You videotape the Italians in the background just looking in blasphemy.
Yeah.
I love that.
I haven't been to Italy.
I think that's a good honeymoon spot,
kind of considering.
You got to go.
It's the best.
Italy is my favorite place.
Come to Etniana, Sanesquios.
What's a good underrated honeymoon spot in Italy? Nice. Come to it, Milano, some excuse.
What's a good underrated honeymoon spot in Italy?
I feel like, you know,
there's the tourist hotspot traps.
Davide, what do you think?
Where should we go?
That would be like kind of more low-key
that the average, you know,
mid-curve American couple wouldn't go.
I would say the islands around naples are very popular amongst tourists but no locals really go there
because they are very much tourists but tourists believe that that's the life in italy okay what
about how do i avoid what about flying into barari and going to Puglia?
Yeah, that's very that's very good for summer. That's what I do. That's what I do.
That's what I do. Enjoy summer, July, August, discotheques at the beach and everything like that. Yeah, my honeymoon I did
I went Croatia and then took a took a flight over to Bari
So it's it's facing the Croatia side And I cannot recommend Puglia enough.
It's where they hold the Red Bull diving competitions,
where they dive from the top of that castle into the water.
It's so sick.
I cannot recommend Puglia.
And it's kind of low-key.
They have a pretty famous beach and stuff,
but I didn't feel the crowds of Pitano and capri when i went there
you should go to the vatican city terms and just pope max like put on the cloak and just like start
chanting and stuff wait wait wait i'm asking the local specifically david where should we go for
real italian culture nice nice time. No tourist hotspot.
Luke, I feel like you're scared to say it.
You're like, dude, I can't say this on a spaces right now
in front of everyone or it'd be ruined.
Everyone will hate me, whichever city I say.
Yeah, come on.
Give me some help here.
Cheers.
Let's say going from the north to the south is,
the north is very undervalued.
People think it doesn't have much to do.
They'll say like Florence, Rome, Naples, beautiful places,
but there is a lot of tourism there.
Like Milan, Turin, Venice is a bit very touristy,
so Venice is also nice nice but very little locals.
Turin is a nice city, the king lived there for example. The Adriatic coast is very cool during
summer because only locals, no tourism. So also very nice to get real food that is not...
Is that the Adriatic coast?
Sorry, the east side of Italy.
So the Mediterranean Sea is the whole thing.
But there are the east and west side of Italy.
And the east side, as Certon was saying, the coast to the right side of the country is
warmer and still beach like the entire country and very good for a local,
local summer life where people live on the beach for three, four months.
See, I didn't lead you astray toons.
The Adriatic seaside is the, is, is the you astray, Toons. The Adriatic Sea side is more of the
path less traveled for tourists. Everyone typically goes to Rome, Naples, Sorrento,
Positano, Salerno. That's all on the west side. That's on the Mediterranean side. And so that's
the most tourist trap areas. Still beautiful. Wait, I thought the Mediterranean was the east side.
This is very confusing.
I'm very confused right now.
No, the Mediterranean is the entire sea.
The entire sea that goes to Egypt, basically.
Okay, so I should go to the east side or the west side?
A car tour along the east side. And maybe like going back up on the opposite side.
It's definitely a road trip to remember.
All right.
Sweet.
Yeah, Bill, have you ever been to Italy?
Yeah, I did that road trip that he just recommended actually when I was 18. It was very good.
How do you...
I'm just so like...
I feel like everyone in the space is like,
yeah, just go to the fucking right side of Italy.
What do you mean? And I'm just here so confused.
It's not a confusing concept, though, is it?
Well, what if I was like,
just go to the right side of america like
that like what is that like upside down maps
dude i'm trying to like post like on a honeymoon it's not like a backpacking tour i'm trying to
like go to the beach somewhere and just like you know like drink wine and like freaking eat pasta
and pizza oh so you want a resort.
Is there a Sandals in Italy?
Is there a Tommy Bahama resort in Italy?
Yeah.
Somewhere I can get a real slice in New York.
Can I get an American resort in Italy, please?
Whatever.
I'm going to chat GPT my way into this shit.
Nice.
Cool.
All right.
Anyways, I also kind of want to go to Japan, just in general.
I felt like that would be a nice place nice uh place to go i mean pull up someone
from japan and then also while we're at it do we have any wedding planners do we have any
anyone that rents gazebos on this room is anyone familiar during blossom season
dude i'm trying to find a nice tommy bahama resort in japan
you know like a real is anyone familiar with the east side of japan is that the place to go
dude like just go to the fucking top
oh man spam have you ever been outside of the country
yeah dude i met you in Brussels.
I know, I know.
Have you ever been?
But have you been to the right side of Brussels?
No, I think it was just strictly in the ghetto.
Spam hasn't ever been on the right side of anything.
Except the curve.
Nice, nice. Oh, man. except the curve nice nice oh man um
anyways we do um i mean you know we're here for lfga so we probably should
attempt to talk about it at some point
about it at some point hell yeah they got lfj in italy the east side of lfj yeah you guys
they got lfj there yeah um we are just nice nice muted everywhere yes nice um all right all right Yes, nice. Let's do a little reset here. Let's assume no one knows what LFJ is and give a
little one-liner, quick little pitch on what you guys what we're doing here.
Davide, take it.
Okay, I'll do the honors. So, well, LFJ, what is this today and what's going to be?
It's a very interesting road up and to the right, because we want to go to the right
side, as we mentioned.
And we started as the one-stop shop, the one-stop shop decentralized exchange three and a half years ago.
On Avalanche, being the lead index on the chain from the moment we started to today,
and a long time ago we have looked into Monad, I think this point, one year plus, almost.
We fell in love with Monad and decided that Monad will be our next step for the vision that we are deploying and testing in production
on one side and also on the Monarch testnet today. So LFJ is today
all in one decentralized solution from liquidity pools
of simple 5050 pools to concentrated liquidity,
where we have built liquidity book, our innovative and unique
concentrated liquidity model, but discretized bin architecture.
People today know them are CLMM,
that we have created in 2022 ourselves,
and kept pushing and developing from then till today.
And what we have been shipping also in the past months
is the next phase of the LFJ future that is
going to be our leading core product with Monad going forward and going into mainnet,
which is the aggregator of everything users need, starting from offering aggregator of aggregators so any user can come on our
platform and swap not only with our liquidity pools but also all liquidity pools available
on the chain we cross match all all aggregators and our own LFT aggregator for the best rate
and offer that to the users at At the same time, we also have
on-chain limit orders, so any user can select a price target where a swap of token X and Y gets
executed via the aggregator, so always at the best rate. But at the target price, we are also developing DCA for the same.
We have on the homepage of LFJ, we have a token terminal where all the trending tokens
of the entire chain are constantly displayed based on a dynamic algorithm that shows the
newest trending tokens on the chain. And at the same time, we are
developing now unjust-released Trenches, which is a, let's call it MemeCoin terminal, which
allows users to find pre-bonding and post-bonding tokens traded anywhere and executed still via our aggregator of aggregator.
And at the end, the coolest product we are going to release only on Monad,
already now on Testnet, a full on-chain order book that is going to support the most efficient trading possible on LFJ
aggregated on our user interface so users that will make a swap will not
only swap with standard AMM pools but also swap on the liquidity or that is
available on our c-lob
and all of this in one single
UI that users can access
users of
Monad can access on
pandaria.lfj.gg
a lot of
stuff
that's the TLDR
we're shipping a lot of stuff
it's really fun because I think we get to benefit from best of both worlds where There's a lot of stuff. That's the TLDR. We're, you know, we're shipping a lot of stuff.
It's really fun because I think we get to benefit from best of both worlds where, you know, we get to test in production on the chains that we're live on now
with ultimately Monad being the end goal.
And then we also get to test on Testnet, right?
So it's like, you know, it allows us to fully battle test the product
so that come mainnet, everything is extremely polished.
And it's actually funny enough, when it comes to battle testing, we've seen that the NADs are the most rabid power users of our front end, more than we see in production on the chains that we're actually live on.
Our test net is executing anywhere from
1,000 or above 1,000
limit orders per day.
So the NADs love
their limit orders, and it's been really cool to see.
That's awesome.
A lot of cool stuff.
How have you guys seen the order book going on Monad
compared to other chains in general,
just from a performance standpoint?
I mean, there's a reason the order book that we're releasing
will be only live on Monad.
I think that in itself speaks volumes right like
we're not releasing it anywhere else um not i frankly i don't know that we can release it
anywhere else and get the performance that we'd be able to get i mean we're looking for that
centralized exchange experience fully on chain and you know we firmly believe that you know monad
is the place to do that frankly the, the only place to do that.
And there's a reason why we are deploying it only on Monad.
Yeah, that's awesome.
It's really exciting.
I think it's really cool, LF unlike, uh, like, I feel like there's a lot of, uh, older gen dexes that are kind of like AMMs. And then you have like newer, uh, newer gen, uh, dexes that are, you know, mainly
order books. Um, but you, you don't really see, uh, any of them taking the leap. Like,
I think you guys are kind of the first ones.
So I just find it really cool. Like, it's super ambitious of you guys to, you know,
just kind of evolve. Yeah, thanks. Appreciate that. I think that one of the main things that,
you know, makes our team special is that you, I don't think you'll find a bigger group of degenerates on chain that are, you know,
either farming new protocols, farming new chains, doing like as much in the trenches as possible.
Like every single person on our team, including all of our developers are so active on chain
that it's very easy to take new leaps and to constantly evolve because we
kind of see new trends. We are power users of every chain, every product. And so we kind of
know what we like and it makes it easy to evolve and take certain plunges because we are power on
chain maxis, all of us. So it's really cool. Like we have the most cracked devs, killer team.
It's just fun to be a part of.
Yeah, it's awesome.
And I think it really extends the community side as well.
Yeah, spam.
I mean, you're such a powerful force.
How are things going just like on the community side at LFJ? How are things?
lucky enough to make over the past couple of years joining us in the discord.
And then, you know,
recently we kind of altered our discord a bit to turn it into like a trading
and alpha channel. And so like, that's been absolutely killing it.
One of our, one of the guys,
has just been putting in like 10 X calls in the trenches.
So I've been, I've also been profiting from the community which
is always a positive that's awesome wait so you like try against them I was
gonna say profiting from probably wasn't the right choice they're profiting with
with with their community spam I love them off the backs of hard yeah I love
using my community as exit liquidity.
Oh god.
Someone's going to snippet that.
Damn it, spam.
Honestly, not even the worst
snippet that's out there of me.
That's true.
Especially after Monad games.
Oh yeah, was there anything cut from that?
I think they got all
the core jokes.
Some of the stuff that was mainly cut was the psychic.
One of them just aired out Danny.
Obviously, we knew the psychic wasn't really foolproof hitting it 100%.
So she just said some out-of-pocket things that got cut.
Like what?
Some out-of-pocket things definitely didn't get cut as well.
Because things got a little spicy at times, for sure.
Yeah, very much so.
It was also funny, right before I hopped on the spaces,
my brother was downstairs watching the Monad games for the first time.
Oh, really?
Yeah, I could just, like, kind of through my, like, thin walls.
I could just hear him laughing at some of the shit.
That's pretty cool.
That's awesome.
Yeah, dude, it was honestly, it was a great turnout.
Super great engagement. It seemed like a great turnout. Super great engagement.
It seemed like everyone loved it.
And then the cypher was kind of the icing on the cake,
which really got everyone super gassed up.
Did you try to solve the cypher at all, Span?
No, no.
I certainly did use it as an engagement bait,
just claiming that I had hints for it and that I'd be dropping
and then
I didn't have any hints so then I was just
going into another engagement bait
off of that
that was pretty successful
yeah seeing a pattern
nice
they kind of went a little bit nuts on um pre-balling which was funny because
they were like to to danny and intern they're like you guys are striving really hard workers
like you're an empath and in pre-ball and it was just like you steal lighters you're like
you know you're probably not going to make it like it was like why did he go so hard on him
yeah he definitely got it
the roughest. Him and Danny got it
the roughest probably by the
psychic.
We should bring her onto some of these
spaces sometimes.
That was also the funniest
thing is like right when her time
was up and she was leaving,
all she did was mention that
she'd be sending over her invoice
and we all just started dying laughing after she left
making sure she got that bag was it like awkward but like was she like outside of the like was she
different off camera versus on camera uh no like still relatively the same i guess yeah she definitely changed her voice a bit
like in the video she kind of it's like a bit like soft spoken whereas like she she had a little bit
more aggression in her uh normal speaking voice but she was nice it was just kind of funny
that's awesome did she do other services because i'd always i'd kind of be interested in like
getting the cards done and like the moon stuff like what else they do a whole bunch of other
stuff right like psychics are generally like they do all the way we're not just the psychic stuff
right yeah i think she was also like a fortune teller and like the tarot card reader yeah which I've always like tattoos yeah which is always interesting
we need to get more occult stuff going on in the community and on chain somehow like real
tarot card kind of I don't know just whatever like that what's the thing where you get your
horoscopes and we need more of that stuff i reckon just completely insane but like kind of fun to get into yeah what's some news what's some stuff new stuff you want to see
in the community bill what do you what do you what what's grounding your gears these days
i'd like some occultism certainly uh deep law like the kind of thing where it's like people do threads on like conspiracy theories
like i'd really like to see deep ingrained conspiracy theories about like astroturfing
like manufactured kind of narratives like people questioning like what's going on i feel like that
would be fun um i feel like yeah just like driving weird narratives that like a group just puts effort into for no reason other than the love of the game.
That would certainly be something.
I'd like to see, like, I think it has to come from like a couple of people just riffing.
But like doing things that you wouldn't normally do, like, I don don't know creating a statue or something just because
it would be funny to do like things that are just funny to do and then you do them and it's hilarious
and you just get to keep on talking about how it's hilarious that you did that like that like
the og 4chan days where chain link community was running there and um actually funny how 4chan
turned out to be an fbi honeypot whatever. But anyway, but like the OG days where, yeah,
like Chainlink was just doing insane stuff,
like going out and like climbing radio towers or whatever it was.
And like doing things like that would be so cool to see.
And I don't know really how you manufacture that,
but I think you just have to like spend a lot of time riffing and then just
like, I don't know, crowdfund some money and throw some,
some stuff at people, like get the content of it.
Yeah.
What,
how much is that?
How important do you think it is for some of this culture stuff to be top
down versus bottom up?
Because I feel like,
I feel like a funny dynamic in crypto today is like
solana has a very like bottom up culture and then i feel like base tries to copy them in a way that's
like top down and then it just kind of comes across weird like with the jesse stuff um but
i don't know i'm just kind of curious like you're like, oh, I want to see people doing this,
but should you be the one that's actually doing it
and then people follow your lead or no?
Yeah, I think it is like half-half in that respect
because the community definitely follows the team's lead.
And so that's why you don't really see them
like super argumentative or like shilly on the timeline
and other people's comments and stuff
is because that's not really what the team
does and so they definitely do
follow what we do but
you almost need to just set
like these visions and
hope that people kind of like jump
into them so if we are
and if we do just constantly go like
we need to do something insane
like it would be cool to do
A, B, C, D, E,
and they're just ideas.
Then hopefully someone does like F or like does the next thing.
Like, okay, that's cool.
Let's support that.
Like everyone go follow this guy.
He's trying to, you know, drive across Europe in a van
and vlog it or whatever.
That would be really, really cool to do.
And I think we do have to kind of mention that that's something that we want people to do or that would be really, really cool to do. And I think we do have to kind of mention
that that's something that we want people to do
or that would be cool to see people to do.
Because they don't know what's possible
until you kind of set the boundaries of what's possible.
Yeah, I was going to say, I think, you know,
even kind of similar to how a protocol takes their community,
I think top-down sets the tone in terms of like, hey, you know, kind of similar to how a protocol takes their community, I think top down sets the tone in terms of like,
hey, you know, we'd like to see this
or just like ultimately tone setting,
but it's not sticky or sustainable.
In order for things to be sticky and sustainable,
it needs to be bottom up.
But the healthy mix between the two is key.
You also need a bit of a psycho like because if you're if you're just
like got five people chilling at your house or whatever and you're having some drinks and you're
talking about like oh what could be fun or whatever like you're probably not often going to do that
you're probably just going to like i don't have something to eat and go out or like go swim or do
whatever it is that you guys normally do like you kind of need one person that's just like yo guys we should go to
this abandoned like i don't know car lot and try and like i don't know find a car that works or
something like really weird um and then just drives that and then people are like yeah all
right i'll be down for that like it'll be at minimum just like hilarious and
at maximum we can get some like long-term memories out of this.
So more insane people probably.
Does anyone want to
volunteer?
I feel like we need an idea drive as well.
People just need to throw in ideas.
Bill, have you ever hosted
a space yourself? Yeah, I used to do
those Monday Mondays things, but they were just
very kind of
product talk.
Right.
Why is that? Are you going to
give me some feedback?
No. I was just a Give me some feedback. No, no, no.
I was just a question from the purity of my heart.
Awesome. Cool.
I was, well, we are, I mean, we're going to close things out soon.
Maybe, I don't know, any call to action for everyone listening from the LFJ side?
Anything to look out for?
Anything to check out right now?
Spam.
Take it.
Yeah, if you're on Monad Testnet just check out the site um and like the ui get to get some trades in
um get familiar with like setting bins um you know looking at the how the pools work and stuff like
that um and then you know if you're still active on other change with a lot of our products the
one click wallet and um the you know the limit orders and the new trenches um
new trenches dashboard i'd definitely go ahead and check those out get yourself familiar for when
everything goes fully live on mainnet yeah check out our discord kind of went through a whole
revamp that spam and the crew have been leading in terms of, you know, just more of an alpha seeking trenches style. So yeah, you know, if there's stuff to do on test net, there's alpha
to find, you know, go there, check it out, check out the community. But then also if you're live
in the trenches, you know, looking for the next 10x, whatever, you know, our token trading terminal
style platform, and what we will be bringing to Monad.
We put it in production first and then we
slow roll it to Testnet just because
there's some infrastructure
requirements that we have
in order to push it onto Testnet.
We test our products, give us
feedback. We're more than
available and happy to talk to everyone.
Love the NADs.
Love the love for the limit orders.
Again, it's crazy that we've been processing
over 1,000 limit orders a day on Testnet, on Monad.
It's been really cool to see and keep it coming.
Awesome. Let's go.
Appreciate you guys. Really appreciate you all.
David, I'll see you in Italy next year.
Looking forward to us.
I'll just meet you on the right side.
How about that?
I'll just meet you on the right side of Italy.
If that sounds very true.
Oh my god.
Yeah, I guess we have Jungi.
Really quickly. What's up, Jungie? Hello?
Buongiorno.
Kind of interrupting a serious space, you know, kind of like, but actually like, there's a really,
like, you know, like, LFJ's here. It's not just some John W. Rich kid thing, but, um, yeah.
Nice. Awesome. Yeah.
Thanks, Jungie.
That was rude. Um, no, i just thought i'd come on in case
you wanted to talk about like the quetzalcoatlus or uh or any other like cretaceous uh period
animals what what are you talking about the quetzalcoatlus the largest flying animal to ever
live what where's that where this? What topic is this?
That sounds like a dinosaur. It is a dinosaur.
Not a dinosaur. It was a pterosaur.
They're different. Oh, God.
Sorry if I misinterpreted where the
direction of the space was going.
Oh, let's jump.
Oh, we have Zane here. no oh no hey zane how are you doing
what's up
i think i think i also start today with your music taste
yeah like how do you how do you find this my music are you serious wait you make them
no i mean why did you see my music you don't own the music
people like you know it's my identity of like my playlists you know it's like my music
all right share your best playlist
when i was in the third grade i thought that i was gay because i could draw my uncle
all right wait uh what's the backstory you do with the song?
That song?
Well, that's about Bill.
He literally gave the backstory in the song.
What do you mean?
What's the backstory?
Listen to the lyrics.
Yeah, like, is he actually, like, was he actually, like,
did he did in school and then he was gay or something?
Like, is he real or is just for giz?
You need to listen to the song and really digest the art and its medium that it was presented.
Fair enough.
Yeah, I had, I'm sorry, I had like just one question for the LFG guys. That's what actually came up. So is LFJ like a club deck?
Is that like the summary of what LFJ is?
LFJ is a decentralized exchange,
trading terminal, token terminal,
and an order book.
The order book is not live yet.
We will be exclusively deploying it on Monad,
but essentially you as a user will come to the lfj
front end and you won't know whether liquidity is being pulled from our amm from the other sources
that we aggregate or from the order book you just know that regardless when you come to us
you will be getting the best price zero slip is trades just ultimately the best price across the entire chain. All right, sweet.
So I'm trying to have this one-liner explanation for NFJ. So we can see it's kind of like a hybrid platform for everything trading.
Is that kind of like the way you want to explain this?
Well, as you before, we're asking if we are a club dex.
you before were asking if we are a club dex the answer is no nfj is not a club dex because for the
The answer is no.
past three and a half year we have been uh amm that's fully fully amm with liquidity pools we
are adding on alongside our tech stack of 50 50 pools, which are the Joby-1 and the concentrated liquidity
pools, which are the Joby-2, we are adding club decks alongside it.
So it will be one of our products, but we are not by definition, club decks, because RMM technology is already live and working,
and you can find it already on the testnet and seed liquidity pools.
So it's a premium, like, I guess, like a one line would be like a premium trading platform.
Because it's hard, it's hard to like, if we just still out to one line,
because the devs just ship so many products
and so many features
but yeah it's really just like all geared
towards giving like the best prices
for like a premium trading experience
do all like your TA
have like a screener
put all your filters in and stuff like that
and all on chain with like the
one click wallet
yeah one click wallet fast execution mev
protection um you know limit orders dca everything so i i like i like your one-liner zane i like that
thank you um so sorry sorry i'm actually bombarding me um so like when the when the club is actually
live on monad it'll be monad uh mainnet day one a hundred percent uh it's actually the contracts
are currently live as we speak on testnet um but you know we're still like fine-tuning kind of ui
stuff for people to actually use it so uh day one mainnet 100 um you know we are working on
some things in the background here on testnet as we speak all right so it's so is it going to be like uh spots based or boots spot and leverage it will not be a perp decks
i think that's all for me
if you have more shoot us hit me in the dm yeah I got you.
Alright.
That was good, Zane. I appreciate that.
Normally people come up and they just yap nonsense,
but that was actually a good question.
The so-pass pop nut.
Yeah, I'm trying to stop us
pop nut.
Nice.
Well,
cool.
I think we'll probably cut it there.
Bill,
any last wise words for us?
This is quite a short space.
Don't your spaces normally run for a couple of hours
or something?
No, they run for an hour every time. Bro, are you
Last one was two hours, too.
Last week was
two hours. Maybe it just feels like
it's two hours. Yeah, last one
was actually two hours, sure.
Oh, wait. Well, they say time flies
and you're having fun, so...
Oh, shit.
I don't know.
Bill, we need some wisdom from you.
Why don't you just pull up more people and get them to get...
People are dying to talk to people.
People are dying to have their opinions be heard.
Right.
I have to go.
This is not just...
Where do you have to go?
Dude, I have to freaking...
Pull up the calendar.
Pull up the calendar and start reading it out
sounds just easy dude i ordered my cheeseburger
he's a hungry big baby he wants he wants he wants to munch
have you seen that guy that makes the burritos um he like blends up the burrito and then like rolls it and he makes a burrito of the burrito and then he like chops that up and then fries it and then like blends it and he makes the burrito of the burrito of the burrito.

Da-ha-ha, da-ha-ha, da-ha-ha-ha-ha.
Sure, I rustled some cattle and tended the sheets, but my main concern was rapping to the beat.
I don't bother nobody, I'm a real nice guy.
Kinda laid back like a dead fly
i'm talking here and now later for the cattle and rustling the cow. If I had a chance to do a repeat, you can bet your sweet bit me I'd be rappin' to the beat.
Da-ha, da-ha, da-ha-ha-ha-ha.
Que pasa, amigos.
Not a pasa, I see.
200 punks, well whatcha gonna do?
I got two sick shooters that'll see me through. That's 12 dead and 188 ball bears.
Da-ha-ha, da-ha, da-ha-ha-ha-ha. What I do on your tree won't pass for flowers either.
won't pass for flowers either.
Now, Curtis,
Boil Run DMC,
you haven't heard a rap
till you heard it from me.
I'm the baddest rapper in history
and there'll be no more
after me.

Well, the first thing you know, Ron's the president.
Again, folks said, Ron, move away from there.
Said in the White House is where you ought to be.
So he loaded up the Lincoln and he moved to D.C.
Washington, that is.
Politicians taking a sip.
Foreign dignitaries taking a trip.
High tax and plenty of cattle. Da-ha, da-ha, da-ha, da-ha, da-ha, da-ha, da-ha, da-ha, da-ha, da-ha, da-ha, da-ha. Now you see me in my movies doing my thing, but deep in my heart I've wanted to sing way down upon the Swanee River.
Far, far away.
are far away
Titwolo, titwolo, titwolo
I don't think that's your style
But I'll tell ya, pilgrim, I'm versatile
Aretha Franklin, Aretha Franklin
Aretha Franklin, let me rock ya, let me rock you
Aretha Franklin, let me rock you Aretha Franklin
That's all I wanna do, Aretha Franklin
Da-ha, da-ha
Da-ha-ha-ha-ha
Da-ha-ha-ha
Da-ha-ha-ha
Da-ha-ha-ha-ha Thank you. When I was in the third grade, I thought that I was gay
Cause I could draw who my uncle was and I kept my room straight
I told my mom, tears rushing down my face
She's like, Ben, you've loved girls since before pre-K
Yeah, I guess she had a point, didn't she?
Bunch of stereotypes all in my head
I remember doing the math, like, yeah, I'm good at Little League
A preconceived idea of what it all meant
For those that like the same sex, have the characteristics.
The right-wing conservatives think it's a decision.
And you can be cured with some treatment in religion.
Man-made rewiring of a predisposition playing God.
Oh, nah, here we go.
America the brave still fears what we don't know.
God loves all his children.
It's somehow forgotten, but we paraphrase a book written 3,500 years ago.
I don't know.
And I can't change.
Even if I tried.
Even if I wanted to.
And I can't change.
Even if I tried.
Even if I wanted to My love, my love, my love
She keeps me warm I've been on the low, I've been taking my time
I feel like I'm out of my mind
It feels like my life ain't mine
Who can relate?
Woo!
I've been on the low, I've been taking my time
I feel like I'm out of my mind It feels like my life ain't mine Can relate. Woo! I don't want to be alive. I don't want to be alive.
I just want to die.
And let me tell you why.
This other shit I'm talking about, they think they know it.
I've been praying for somebody to save me.
No one's heroic in my life.
Don't even matter.
I know it.
I know I'm hurting deep down, but can't show it.
I never had a place to call my own.
I never had a home.
Ain't nobody calling my phone.
Where you been? Where you at had what's on your mind?
They say every life precious, but nobody care about mine.
I've been alone.
I've been taking my time.
I feel like I'm out of my mind.
It feel like my life ain't mine.
Who can relate?
Who?
I've been alone.
I've been taking my time.
I feel like I'm out of my mind.
It feel like my life ain't mine. I want you to be alive
I want you to be alive
You don't gotta die today
You don't gotta die
I want you to be alive
I want you to be alive
You don't gotta die
Now let me tell you why
It's the very first breath
When your head's been drowning underwater
Oh shit, is this thing still on?
