Transcript

Yo-yo, yo, what up? What up? Good morning, Good morning. GMG Wednesday, Wednesday Yes, Wednesday, April 10th, 2020. I'm going to do this 2024 thing all year long my way. 2024. Look at that. Another beautiful day to have a beautiful day. I mean, the sun is shining. Shine Paris guys. I have to say, when I'm in London the sun shines. When I'm in Paris, the sun shines. The sun is shining. The sun is following me around. Gotta love it, gotta love it. Gotta let the sunshine sun

shining. The sun shining. Anyways, I got my cohost in the house. I mean honorary cohost today. You know, we got, we got the the third leg of Canary Labs, the cork. I'm actually going to start calling you the cork. I like that. That's not bad. I mean, you really have a cock behind you, right? Move your head a bit. That's not the cock. It's. A duck. It's a duck. Is it a duck? Is it a real duck? Can you bring it on camera? I mean, Obi Cowley. Good morning, lads.

How are you guys doing today? Morning, morning, morning. Not bad, not bad. Market not great. But. We're bouncing though. We're, we bounced before the show. We bounce. We're going to talk about that. Market's not great. We did. We bounced. We bounced a whole $2000. On bass. Solana. Stop bouncing anytime soon, King. But we're gonna have to wait for this fucking. I mean, like I said, get. Get Solana. Get the fucking Solana. Get some Robbie Tussin. Get it some fucking cold medication.

Get some Advil. Let me tell you guys, I needed some of that this morning because the worst headache in my life, it is what it is. Anyways, we're gonna get into details of that, but anyways, anyways, so back to this conversation though, very important. Is it a duck? Like, what's behind you? Like, can you bring it? Yeah, it's. A French duck? No, it's fixed to the desk. It's a It's a feature of the desk. It's. Fixed to the desk. It's a French duck which I acquired about a decade ago.

Is it a real duck? Yeah, yeah, are. We going to get cancelled. Did you? Oh, it's. No, no. Did you kill A? Duck. Antique. No duck were harmed in the creating of that taxidermy or. Did you eat it? Because I had Foghar. I had Foghar yesterday. Fantastic. No, no, no, no. None of that stuff. I I had this incredible Foghar yesterday at cost actually the day before. Yeah, it was overpriced as fuck, but it was really good. I mean, it was a bull market two days ago, OK?

So I could justify having a 34 year old Foghar. You know I. Feel like I feel like at conferences if bitcoin's over 70 K people start to go crazy and if it's below, people start to get depressed. It was funny. It was funny as you're saying this, we're back to like previous all time high and like I mean last cycles attached like 69 K and this is like a bear market, you know what I mean? And things are bad. And we're talking about a duck. I mean duck really shat on

obvious hat. So it's good luck though. So it's good luck. It's good luck. It's good luck to have bird poop on you. Anyways today on the show today today daily market report. I mean we we brought geopolitical expert Benjamin Cowley on the on the show today that speak to us about more macroeconomics and then what's happening on that front and then of course my boy OV so we're gonna we're gonna talk about the markets of course as usual Bitcoin.

We got quite a quite a retrace I pull back yesterday but it seems like it was just testing you testing something whatever the lines say. I just follow what St. Pomp says on Twitter I went I actually follow also the duck guy they're they're pretty good traders so I I, I I just follow what they say and my boys so we're we're we're good we're back ish. So we have that, we have you know memes, alts, memes and dreams, you know, quite a pullback on all Solana ecosystem of course.

But we already went way over it like a lot yesterday over the over that and what's happening looks like we have quite a pullback, but that's obviously based due to the fact that you know Solana literally doesn't really work much. You have runes again hot topic, I mean very fair it, it's literally in bold capital red letters it says runes, hot topic. Sims must have a bag of runes because that it's in red and he does the topic, so he must have a bag of rooms. I'm obviously kidding.

I have a bag of rooms. That's what's up. So rooms are a hot topic. I mean, it's 420. It's coming. Having's coming. Rooms are gonna cook, say it every day on the show. I'm gonna literally shove runes down people's throats every day on the show. And I did on stage yesterday. Actually, I'm a fan. Anyways, we have that. And then last but not least, oh, an X copy. One of one sold for 2 million. Holy shit, Rahul. Paul is on a Bender. Is that Rahul?

Yeah, heard it for Al again. Is it actually? No, I'm. Joking. I don't. I I don't know. But I don't know that it is him. It could be we're going to go through the wallet on the show. We're you know what, we're going to go through the wallet show we're going to go and and and you know because you know we're going to be feds and go look at what's going on in that wallet on that. And then last but not least, we'll be joined today with today's show partner Tipsy, the Tipsy Company.

They'll be joining us to talk to us about Nova Frontier, their game that is. This is actually a gaming company that launched the game before raising crazy insane. I've never seen that in crypto. And then and of course as you know, the show is sponsored by fair site network, wallet coverage for drains, scams and more. But also Film dot IO, the world's most powerful decentralized film from making ecosystem Film NFTS. So check him out Film dot IO and Fairside Network.

So anyways, without further ado, why don't we get right into it? Oh, we don't hear it, by the way. Silent. This guy, I think. It's at least on the space, so it's OK. OK. Oh, you guys can't hear the the, the Jingle. Not in here, but it's on the space, so you're all. Right. Oh, I definitely heard it. Obi. Obi probably didn't even know it was his Jingle still yet. Mandel's not here. Obi. Talk to me. Talk to me. Talk to me about CPI. This morning, Market tanked.

And then we're back. What's going on? Yeah, CPI inflation came in at 3.5% versus 3.4% expected versus 3.2% last month. So you know, in isolation, a 0.1 percentage point increase versus expectations isn't like the worst thing in the world. But I think in the context of all the different numbers that we've seen in the last few weeks, in the last few months really since the beginning beginning of this year, there is some increasing concern that the Fed is not going to cut rates anytime soon.

And at the beginning of the year, we had anticipated six rate cuts that went down to three. I think that's maybe now down to two. The expectation for a rate cut in June is probably pretty much off the table now. So, yeah, it's not great for like the interest rate market, I guess because it means we're not going to see lower rates anytime soon. the Fed has to keep it high because it's fine to have all this really strong economic data that's good for the economy.

But if inflation also starts to tick up alongside that, that's where the concern really kicks in, especially especially with rates already quite high. So let's hope that it stays within this like 3, you know mid 3 area range for inflation. We don't go towards 4 or above because that would really start to cause be a cause for concern and actually would be a a situation in which we can maybe even see rate hikes. So let's hope we stick around the mid 3 area.

But yeah, it's not great. Interest rates had a big move higher. We're at 4.5% now on on 10 years. That's like a 15 basis point move higher. Twenty basis point move higher in the front end on two year. And stocks don't like the new stocks are down. Stocks are down about 1%. So yeah, not a great number. Crypto 4. Percent. Yeah, crypto is lower was lower in sympathy. I think we dropped to as low as 67.8 K on Bitcoin. We've actually retraced most of

that move. We're now back up to 69 K almost where we were. Bitcoin's almost back to unchanged, it's the number. So we really are seeing incredible strength in crypto just in that, you know, Despite that number, it's just another testament to the fact that crypto seems to just not really be correlated with macro right now away from ETFs. But the ETF flows also don't seem to be correlated with macro yet. But I think if you zoom out there will be eventually.

So yeah, that's that's where we are at right now. Not a great number, but I think it's nice to see that crypto is not getting decimated on it. And yeah, I wonder what would have happened if if we had a low number, how much we already rallied. Yeah, look, it looks like we're we're not looking that bad. I mean look, I I drew the same lines as my favorite traders or sorry astrologists in crypto. And so I, I, I that's what I did.

I I have the same lines. They call this apparently boys, they call this a bullish Pennant. It's it's just like a flag you know it's like that and and it looks good. I mean Cali, what do you think we liked it. I mean, it looks the lines don't lie. The lines lines only lie but. They're not lying here. We have this ongoing disagreement in Canary Labs where I'm like this inflation Bear and Ovi and Michael are this inflation bulls.

And once again, I was right. So you are, I mean, OK, so this is going to be funny because you are the bear in. Connection on inflation, I just think no, no. You're a bear. You're a bear. I'm never going to let go of what you told me at 22 governor in December. You're never getting over that or so November or October. That was. I forgot you didn't even. Remember what it was? It never even happened anyway. You are the bear.

It's, I think it's very healthy because Mando and Obi are like, I mean, Obi sometimes is a little bearish. She only tells people to take profits. I don't like that. But I should listen to him and that's why he's richer than me And then and then but you it's it's good that Canary Lab says, I mean, the third leg of Canary Lab is a bear. So I actually want to hear from the mouth of bear here. How do you feel about this market and inflation and all that good stuff?

There's never been a case in the history of the world where inflation just went up and then down. Oh, it's never a one time thing ever. Maybe it's like. Not since 2020, the famous 20/22/23. Event, we're not finished yet. We're not finished. We're not through it. So we don't know. But that's just, you know, I'm a historian. I enjoy looking at past, at the past and seeing what it tells us about the future. I just think. Isn't that true?

Like literally, literally pretty much any, not only only any asset, but just anything? Like nothing ever just goes up and not down and then back up again. Like, isn't that just like a cycle, even even human height goes up and then goes goes down? We mean human height goes up. I'm not growing. I I'm definitely not growing. Yeah. Exactly. You you grew, now you've stalled. And then as you get older, you'll shrink I'm. Going to get shorter. Yeah.

Seriously, we get shorter. No, it's like you actually get shorter. Yeah, especially after you die as well. You just you really get shorter. I would Google it, but apparently my keyboard's annoying. I'm sorry guys, I I I did bring hold on, I I brought a keyboard. I traveled with my keyboard this time. So let me maybe turn this on. So you're telling me I'm gonna get shorter than this 'cause I'm like 4/6. That sucks.

You get shorter every day because of gravity and then you elongate at night when you lie down because it's a compression between your vertebrae anyway. Inflation is not just going to keep going down. I think the market got ahead of itself with like six rate cuts or some bullshit whatever was priced at the start of the year. And then that's come down and it's coming down, it's coming down, it's coming down and then it's going to go to zero rate cuts and that's where we are.

Yeah, it's it's OK. I guess. I guess. I guess I just found out that we got shorter. Yes, BL8, I'm wearing pants, bro. Don't worry. I've decided I'm going to wear pants now on the show, 'cause it's this freaking mirror. It didn't this screenshot to me going around in my undies because of the show yesterday. And it is what it is, you know, I was told I have a nice bump. So it's, you know, as I'm Persian, it's like that. Anyways, so that's that on the that's that.

On the, on the, on the inflation, the macro and all that boring stuff. Anyways, besides that, Solana's looking like it it hasn't bounced so much. I mean, Ovi, you were. That's what kind of the comment you were making. It's at 162. I'm looking at the timeline on Twitter and it's funny, we were talking about Canary Labs and Linda, you guys are back-to-back. I mean, it's me, then Ovi, then Mando on the timeline while Ovi's looking for an assistant.

So if ever, if anyone wants to fire a job, I almost quote tweeted you, I think I drafted it. This is a good job opportunity of being Ovi's assistant. I mean, I'm assuming. That it's not, I don't. I got loads of people who are like way too overqualified for what I'm asking for. Like this is I wouldn't say in my opinion this is not like an amazing job opportunity. This is like, I'm just being honest, like it's pretty boring

work. I just need some help on it and if someone is willing to do it and you know, please, please get involved. But I'm not looking for like really qualified people who have like years of experience in crypto. Like this is not what that role is. Oh, you're not looking for someone to DJ for you? No, this is a very boring job. The only the only benefit of this job is you get to speak to me, which isn't isn't even really a benefit if we're being

honest. So yeah, it's probably a drawback, so. You. Just want to say this is a this is a shit job. I just want to make that clear. This is a really shit job. Hold on, dude. And Despite that, you still want to do it for. Years to come. OK, hold on. I I don't see a world where you have an assistant. There's no chance. Like you're never going to hire an assistant. I I I may not even hire someone. I think that's why I said it'll just be an internship and see if it works.

But. I mean, if you want a summer internship, if you're at school, you want a summer internship and work for the literally the the, the, the fresh buy of DACA himself. I mean, this is a good job opportunity for you. You get, apparently you get, You get epic. You pay an epic or what? If if you're a uni student and I have a preference for people based in the UK because for obvious reasons.

But if you're a uni student and you don't have anything to do this summer and you want something to do remotely, then this could be interesting. I think that's like the kind of thing I'm going for. I might even just make it so it's like you have to be like a first or second year uni student or third year uni student. OK, well, look, if I mean Cali, you don't, you don't want to take this job. He's not interested. I I'm the reason he has to this is. This is to fill Cali's role.

Yeah, exactly. I I failed at my job, so now I have to hire a certain assistant. That's so funny. But anyway, so I was this is actually not what I was going to bring up. I was going to bring up what's right under it, which is Mandel's tweet. It's funny. So you're looking for an assistant. Mandel's buying Solana. See, at least one of you guys is doing a good deed. And for what it's worth, don't.

You shouldn't overlook the overqualified people will be because hiring someone that could be overqualified for that specific position could end up. I don't want, I don't want someone to come in with expectations like I don't want overqualified people. It's not I'm not here to like this job is not to. Why you? Make it sound horrible, like you Make it sound like you're a horrible. Employer. I'm trying to no, I'm going to be a great fucking employer.

And I'll do and I'll do my best and I think I'm AI would be like a really friendly boss. But yes, you're going to manage expectations here. I don't want someone coming with that, right? Like I'm going to fucking like, you know? Change your life. Yeah, exactly. Wait, what's that scene with Wait wait, wait. Fucking what's his name and World War? For what? You would give me a $70,000 check and then leave everything

right now. This is not one of the situations where someone's going to have leave everything to come and work Canary Labs under you and make like millions trading meme coins. Yeah, we're not hiring a Yeah, just to be clear, we're not hiring. It's not like we're hiring a junior trader. That's not the job. The job is like is an assistant. It's like please. Help me. Field my phone calls and all that kind of stuff.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, look, there's, yeah, I mean, UK preferred if you want an assistant job and first you're probably not going to find it in the space, but you know. This is just proof that AI is. I thought AI was going to steal all these jobs, but didn't. No chance. If someone could train an. AI can't live without an assistant. I would take, yeah, I would take that someone can train an AI of me. I can't live without an executive assistant.

I I cannot I cannot like even right now at events I know where I'm going after before who I have to meet where when how show this that it makes your life. It's like the biggest alpha when you own a company like to literally like have someone help with that OB so you you could use the help. I'm sure it's very bullish actually. OK, so bullish Red guy. OK next. So what I was going to bring up is Mando's tweet actually. And I'm curious what you guys think about that.

But we can't talk about this is Cali. What are your thoughts here? Feels like a good time to buy Soul inflation freak out. Peak ticket fill your FUD patches coming next week. Chatter a fire dancer. Choose Rich Do you choose Rich Cali? And what do you make of the salon situation? Always choose rich and Mando is right. It's peak FUD, it's peak ticket FUD, it's peak like congestion FUD, it's peak like market FUD etcetera, etcetera. So for like a short term trade, I think it looks good.

I don't love the fact that this is meant to be like super quick, super usable chain and it's not quick or usable. It's not great medium term, but I agree it's peak FUD right now and always buy peak FUD. Yeah, yeah, feels like it. I mean we went down to $162.00 today on on bacon, I'm sorry on on, on Solana. So it's quite, it's quite a, it's quite a, it's quite a low print here. I don't think it's, I mean it was it was around this prices when last it was on in March, March 20th.

So it's been, it's been a few weeks, it's been a few weeks, it's been a few weeks. Anyways, Next up what what's going on in the market as well. So you got, I mean we got on the Solana side again, the fire dancer's getting closer. That's something that I think Manda was talking a lot about in Q4 because that's when it was announced. So we got Fire Dancer. I think there is a risk with Fire Dancer. It's this thing which is like

always in the future. It's like the million tickets per second, like the consensus node implementation, whatever, like there's this, there's always it's, it could be one of those things which is just always on horizon and and never comes, but maybe that's a good thing. It's like when the hamster has the little stick attached to its back and then it's got the treat that's also it's always like just in front of it. Maybe it's like that and maybe that helps the Solana price pump.

Yeah, I feel. Like it's not like that. I I'm excited for it. I think it's going to fix a lot of shit. I'm not sure we need a million TPS, but I'll take 10,000 and and and that's doing well. Kelly, have you, have you been, have you been, have you been navigating the base waters at all? Yeah, I I'm on degen layer three, man. I'm deep and. Oh yeah, you're you're D you like degen. It's true. You you took a degen trade, right? Of course, mostly for the name, but yeah, I think if anything

this pushes people to base. I still think the the like all you have to think for base to be successful is just that like it opens up decks usability to everybody that has the Coinbase wallet and that is like big for that chain. Don't overcomplicate it. So we have to think about with. That yeah, it's just the Coinbase wallet, which is actually really nice. Apparently. I don't use it, but I I heard it is like everyone. Solana, Solana. Like having issues.

Not necessarily bad issues, but having issues just makes that narrative stronger in my. Mind. Yeah, 100%. Like my normie friend George. I always mention him on the show. He's probably watching. He watches the show every day, I think asked me yesterday that two days ago for the first time. So how does this basting work? He's like, so it's because he's been trading shit coins on Solana and he's like, so how do I get bass? I'm like, oh, it's easy. It's very easy. Let me show you how.

So you let me go to You better mask and you switch the network. So. So it makes it, you know, it's not that hard and it's a UNISWAP. You all use UNISWAP already. So yeah, I mean they're they're killing it. I think the TVL, why does D Phi Lama not show $4 billion by the way on the T VL, Do you guys know why? It's just one point 46. What is it 4-4 billion though on? Base. Yeah. Where's 1.4? I I thought, I thought it was more, I thought they had a bigger I thought they had a

bigger TVL. Still not bad but the the volume over there is skyrocketing. So they're they're doing really well. So that's that's really what's been dominating the space at the moment And then that's that. I mean I mean Carly, while I have you here I kind of want to ask you I mean how is how is our geopolitics doing? How how how is the world? I I I don't look. Outside not doing the eclipse which is annoying but right. How did you? Did you survive this?

Yeah. Yeah. It wasn't even coming over Europe, so that's fine. Everything seems to have settled down in the past like few weeks. I don't know, like the tensions have kind of settled. Everybody seems less on a knife edge. I had the the lean hog situation in in West Suriname is is starting to kick off recently. I could have implications. For I could have implications for China taking over Hong Kong. Pause. Hold on, What are you guys

talking have? You have you not been following the pandemic in in the Middle East? There's a pandemic in the Middle East. Yeah. We're literally going to the middle. East in the Deep in the deep In the deep Middle East, it's the deep Middle East. So what's the deep Middle East? Because the Middle East is. Like lean hogs pandemic in the deep Middle East. Like in Dubai. A deep Middle East. A deep. Like, I don't know what that means. What's the deep Middle East

like? Please describe to me what the deep Middle East looks like to you. Iraq, Iran. Like the like the mountains of Iran, probably. Yeah, OK. That's right. We'd say deep middle. East like northern Iran, like that's deep Middle East, like the northern mountains of Iran, like we're just snowing Shit. That's the deep Middle East, all right. I got it. Anyways, so you guys crazy? You guys are insane. Anyways, so besides that, I mean

memes, odds, memes, and dreams. I mean, you know, I'm trying to look at the the hot stuff here on deck Screener. I mean, it's it's kind of like, it's kind of stale when Solano is kind of congested. I'm not gonna lie, it's a little and I it's a little boring, right? Like Solano's really become V casino. Like base is cool, but like feels like the casino's closed. You know what I mean? Do you guys get that feeling a bit right now? Totally.

This is why casinos are open 24/7, 365 days a year. And if they're closed, everybody else goes to another casino. So I feel like that's the situation with Solana right now. But and and saying that as well like we have seen apart from a few coins the originality in the in these memes is like getting worse. Like your Pepe son of Pepe Blue, Pepe Yellow Pepe. The derivatives of the derivatives are just like just another kind of another reason for people to like stop paying attention.

And I think it's all about just keeping people's attention. So you need to go back to like original memes which are actually funny in my mind or and can like capture people's attention span or make them laugh or or whatever, but like. What do you what? What does Cali buy? What does? What does? Why? How does a How does a meme pass the Cali test? This is this is bad. What do you look for? I don't even know, but I've been rugged like two or three times in the.

Past I know you rugged me two times. Last week, not a good indicator on this. Callie sent me. I don't know if you saw that OV. Callie sent me two coins last week and both of them the liquidity drained 5 minutes in. And oh look, the balloons even agree, both of them rugged 5 minutes in. To your defense, you did send me a few 10 XS, but obviously we

all. Mentioned about I I kind of like OG Internet memes and that I feel like what I've learned is that those are the obvious ones which scammers know that people like, which is why they launched them. So there's like a bit of game theory here which I need to work through, I think. Me versus the scammers. Oh my God, I I love that. Listen, I I love. I just, I just, I I love. I love what I love. I love that the Kelly test is important.

The Kelly test is important. He's the last line of the fans before like, you know meme, you know. And if he doesn't like it, then be careful. Did you did you also cook with with Obi or what? I never ask you that. He was. Like I was away that weekend and then I came back and it was already like 10X or some shit. I tried to have a normal life and then I just failed. Generational. Why is Obi laughing twice? Oh, he's like, smiling. He's like, sly, like, he's like laughing about it.

He's, like, smiling. It sounds like one of these cases where Obi like. Told you, I said the dog was cute and that was it, I think. And then I looked again and it was generational. Wealth was gone. So there we go. Obi, did you try? Were you a good friend? Did you actually push? From I don't push people into trays other than maybe one specific trade right now, but away from that. What's the one specific trade? We're all in it. I won't say it, but but I don't like to, I don't.

I like and if it goes wrong, you don't want that on. Your Am I in it? Yeah. OK, fire. I've been so many things. Yeah, I don't want, I don't want, I don't want it on my conscience where someone's like, Oh my God, you're telling me to buy this and now it's lower, like. It's like that meme, right? The Kanye meme where he's like, you know, I have this, I don't. Know that I didn't. I didn't exactly buy whiff thinking it'd be fucking $4 billion, right? Like, I know, so you don't.

If everyone obviously, if everyone knew that, then then they would just like buy loads of it. Like, I think sometimes you just realize something. Sometimes the trade gets better as you get in it. And then, yeah, so. 100 percent, 100%, totally agree. And in other news, I mean then we're going to go to to the tipsy company. I see that in the studio. But in other news, I mean, look, I mean it's again. And when it's it's NFTS, it's only in Bitcoin right now.

Like literally, that's it. Like that's what the only thing that's doing really, really well is anything trading on Bitcoin at the moment. The runes are flying. Could have seen that comment. It's the most obvious trade in my opinion. It was Runes, even Rune Pops. Yes, you saw Rune Pops. I mean we talked about it yesterday actually that Don Solana was like going crazy. But the runes are going absolutely, it's absolutely madness on on Bitcoin right now. Let me pull up.

D Jens actually here so runes, runes, runes. It's just runes. It's literally just runes right now. Obviously it's the biggest narrative ever for that which is the Bitcoin having and they're all about to launch or you're gonna get your tokens. However it works. I I saw Juan said was listening on the show he's he's quite the guy for for for following what's happening on that front. So where's the flying It's all Bitcoin. I mean, Callie, have you been involved in the Bitcoin trade at all?

Look at this. I didn't love the initial way that they traded on like an Excel spreadsheet and then. Yeah, that. Was just like this whole thing's a joke and then just forgot about it. And now, yeah, here we are. It's all green like. And if I pull up like here let me pull up Solana, it'll be red, I'm sure. More red, obviously not too much red. Medlas are still trading above 120, so it's quite it's quite good. I didn't know Tensorians went down since 79. Wow. And then you have.

Pretty disappointing, right? I think a lot of people were pissed off about the air drop. Ah, OK. I saw, I saw people on the timeline, but of course can't follow as much when I'm when I'm not home. And the only thing that's green again is Milady's on it again. Another day. Milady's are higher and they're up. They're up 10 points, 24 hours. They're up 23 percent, 23.8% on the week. You have meme land. That's up. You have little pudgies. You have Sookie a little bit.

Decon's a bit. Not really. Pudgies are still above 12 eighth, which is really good. I mean, pudgies, it's, it's it, right? It's really holding very well above that. Still even on par with with Bortip Yacht Club and then punks. I mean, dude, Obi, I don't know what you think about this, but I saw this punk trade just now. It's so nice. I love this punk. I always just think about this. Sick, right? I just saw that it's a fire combination and then an X copy

sold. For. $2,000,000 saw that on the before coming on the show. That's crazy. That is insane $2,000,000 X copy sale. We wanted to see if it's we need to find out if it's Raul Pal. I mean, you know, is Raul Pal buying up all the all the X copies? Oh yeah, I feel like you would know. I feel like you're the Raul Pal Whisperer. Are you the Raul Pal Whisperer? He's definitely buying some. Or is he definitely bought some?

You know what though? You bet your ass that Benny is in his messages trying to sell him a skull. Hey, Raul, if you listen to this, buy a skull, Lucy, shout out to Sam's crap. I wish I could at one day. One day. So that's that look. That's that really on the NFT front, things are selling, some things are not selling. It's happened on Bitcoin, yadda yadda. That's that.

That's really the big stuff. And then last but not least, I mean yesterday, I mean we're all advisors, but you had creator hood founder come on the show yesterday and looks like it opened pretty well. So that's going to be interesting narrative as well amidst a market that was red today that was some green this morning. So make sure you pay attention to that.

I think, I think if the social fine narrative is going to keep going, it's one of those air drops farming you guys are probably going to be able to to be rewarded on. But anyways, anyways, Anyways, with that, why don't we go to today's partner of the show. Let me get you up on stage. Let me get you up. Our humanity was on the brink of extinction. In the endless void, we discovered a New Hope for our survival. An unparalleled energy source. We've located the specimen.

Commencing analysis. What was that? Conrad. Conrad. We're taking heavy fire. We are deploying our forces. Defend the Dark novel crystals at all costs. Is that a hostile? What's it doing? The inferior race must be eradicated. Oh, that. That's a pretty cool trailer. Am I right? OV No. Yeah. That was that was pretty cool, I have to say. Like, I actually watched the whole thing. I was like, I was, I was looking at it like, holy shit, that's a fire trailer, Tipsy.

What's up, man? What's up, Penguin? How you doing? Yo-yo Faruq, how are you guys doing? Dude, we are good. We're good. The sun is shining. Our bags are not pumping. But we're good. We're good. And that dude, that was actually really cool trailer. I I have to give you some credits for that. It it was it was it was a lot of fun to watch and it's really cool and actually made me hella

curious. There's over 1000 people as usual watching the stream on video there's about 2-3 hundred people on on on on spaces so if you're not if you're not on if you're on video yet you can come and join us. I've posted the broadcasting it's posted off from a while we're we're live on Binance live as well and across the board YouTube yadda yadda. I mean tipsy coin tipsy company are are are joining us today and we have Penguin behind the PFP here that that has that is on stage with us.

I mean, Penguin. What's up, man? Why don't you give us a little introduction? What is? What is this Fire trailer about? Thank you for Yeah man. I mean, our approach was we wanted this to be cinematic, right? I mean, NOAA Frontier is the second game we are launching and this is coming up this month, later this month, this game is releasing. It's already been approved on the App Store and Play Store, free to play mobile game, you know, kind of intergalactic space combat base management.

We have now over 115,000 people worldwide who have signed up for the wait list. Oh, that's actually, that's actually pretty crazy. So I mentioned something before when we were talking about you coming on the show today. At the beginning, it's like you guys did the opposite of what you're supposed to do. You actually built the game before launching. You're supposed to not launch the game. You're supposed to not have a game built, and then you launch and then you build it, Am I

right? I'm just kidding. But so you guys actually broke the game already, right? Yeah, yeah, I mean this game has been amazing now for over 2 years. You know we we bought this game initially from a studio that ran out of funding because it is a high budget production and then we've been, we've been working on it additionally for about a year now. So it All in all, over 2 years the Tipsy company, I mean we have a team of 30 plus globally, right?

Self funded in this red free gaming space now for 2 1/2 years. And now approach is just really onboarding players here man. I mean how do you build a fun Bet three-game? It's as simple as building a fun game and I think a lot of projects often forget that. And you know they're here about being inclusive, building a nice community. Come and join us, man, this is fun in here. Yeah, dude. Fuck. I mean, I think. I think this is awesome. I love your energy.

I think I think I I love the energy. I love the energy. I love it. I love it. You're hyping me up. You're telling me So it's already on Android, right? And I believe it's coming on iPhone soon, because we already. So the game is releasing globally all at the same time on both platforms, on Android and iOS or Google Play and the App Store. We want to make this accessible for people. Handheld devices are the way to go. It's launching later this April.

But you know what we have really exciting is in six days from now we're launching spaceships. And you don't need to buy one to play the game because you're being given a free spaceship when you kind of join the game. But if you want something cool, it's not just cosmetic, right? We we understand in the world of NF, TS, utilities, scheme, it's it's not just a collectible. It's beyond the community, you know?

It's it's essential for playing and it's it's important for for earning, harvesting rewards and just having fun, right? Fuck yeah, definitely. And now you're watching some sneak peeks of the game, baby. So yeah. I love that dude. You got me hyped. I I'm not going to lie. You got you got me hyped up. I like when founders are hyped about their own shit. I don't know. I I I I think it's so fun, dude. So what? This is the gameplay. I'm. I'm not a big gamer. People know that. I'm.

I'm good at FIFA or school, actually. Ovi, do you play FIFA? We should play FIFA once. I feel like you play FIFA. Been a long time, but yeah. Yeah I feel but you never lose FIFA. FIFA, the furthest gaming I've gone through and Sims always makes fun of me. Fortnite. That's like my full range of gaming was through Fortnite and maybe Monopoly on the iPhone once but but but this is this is a pretty fire game. I mean run me through it. You guys already built it. It's already launched.

So how does this all work? Like you you're you have a sale coming soon of course for the for the spaceship and then what Like what what's going to go down? Talk to me more about Nova Frontier. 100% So when you think of it, you know from a web free perspective, right, investors, players to buy NFTS in hopes to use it. You know, we're telling you there are spaceships you can get on this wagon early and you want to join early because #1 spaceships are limited. And you think about it from a

traditional NFT mindset. People are like, hey, 10K supply is big in today's terms, but when you think about the game, half a million or you know, two or three million players, what are 10,000 spaceships in comparison, right. It's it's, it's highly limited and these spaceships can be used in this game. It is as good as what you see. The graphics are completely sick. I mean, my grandparents are asking me how they can get their hands on this right? And in the 60s and the 70s?

Jesus, you know, you see, you can almost feel like a pilot mustache in your palms. Baby, you want to get your hands on this game the moment it launched. Dude, I I I can't get over how far your energy is right now. I wish you were on video. Dude, I I this is fun. This is fun. And so you're that when you say your grandparents hitting you up, kill me, dude, I love that. I freaking love that. I hope they're proud of you, man. You're you're building some cool

shit. So you have, so you were saying you're building a game for Web Two that has a Web 3 component. How's that been for you? Actually, I'm kind of curious because like you obviously have 150,000 people on a wait list, which is fire, honestly, well done, Gigi. But you know what? What do you. You know what what, what's your approach here? Like, do you have a Web 3 angle, which is the 10,000 spaceships that are coming out soon and you're getting, I'll check it

out. The website I'm sharing now is Nova Frontier, for anyone's curious. Nova Frontier, FRFRON tiar dot IO there's everything there. You guys have a wiki, you you know you can secure your early bids, there's the races, human alien AI which by the way like really cool looking shit. And you have the this is the supply and everything. So what's your approach to this? Yeah, that's that's a great question for all.

I think the Web 3 gaming market is such a small pie of the overall gaming segment and we all know how big the game industry is, right? It's bigger than music and Hollywood combined, but how many players are actually on board in the web free gaming space? This float notion of web three games being complex, needing an investment in NFT to to partake in, or requiring a crazy amount of learning curve before you can actually get your hands on the game. Now we we want to disrupt that notion.

We want to change that float perception because a web three-game should just be as fun and should just be as easy to play as any other traditional mobile game out there. So our approach being a mobile you download the game, you create an account with usual credentials, you know username, password, e-mail address, 0 connection. If you want to connect your wallet to amplify your gaming experience, you do that on the web app that will be launching.

If you don't want to connect your wallet, no big deal. I mean, you still enjoy full gaming features 0 restrictions and that is the way we can win the hearts of the traditional web two game. And we're doing a lot of onboarding in the web free gaming space by the way, a massive part. A massive chunk of our community comes from the web 2 space every single day. Mind you we're spending 5000 bucks on Facebook and Instagram ads with gameplay footage of Noah Frontier.

All your timeline every per day. You heard it right? Per day we have anywhere from about thousand 2000 people from the Web 2 space coming to our community, joining the wait list, inquiring about how blockchain works, what C phrases are, what meta mask is. Because now they are just so fun they can't wait to get their hands on our frontier. And this is the approach. Game first, NFT second. Blockchain is a by the way saying it's supposed to be a

background thing right? So focusing on the game right And here you know as a creator of of of the game developer, we we want to build a community and community is everything, right? We we've listened to feedback before the launch and that won't stop. We built this game for you guys. That's sick. OK, again, love the energy. And so I'm I'm looking at spaceship right now. It's called this one's called quail or quail or and then there's a bunch of them. So why?

So if the game is web too already you can put play. Why should someone buy a spaceship? Like what? It's 200 bucks. Seems affordable to me. Why would Why should someone spend 200 bucks on your product? Why should someone buy a spaceship? Penguin, Tommy. Yeah, great question there. So spaceships are from $200 onwards and that's because of the early bird pricing where everything is slashed by 50%. So like with every game, right, you want to elevate your gaming experience.

If you're having fun, you know, you want to stand having an age, you know, just better stats, attack, defense capabilities, having something that looks cool. I think that means a lot to a lot of players when they're having fun. So if you look on the right you can see the different stats of the spaceships and and as you maneuver around different ships they all feature different stats and Faruqi. If you actually Scroll down a little bit you can look at the spaceship in in high res 3D, you

can even rotate around here. You just give it a few seconds, zoom in right there, play around with it and you look at all the spaceships loading in super high definition. So this is our approach by building a fun to play game, building free to play, but you want to get your hands on a spaceship because it also has a potential investment Games and you can buy a spaceship using card or crypto right? So these base shapes are digital assets. They're collectibles are there you go.

I think it loads right now this so you can. Zoom. There it is. And. Yeah, and Zoom, Zoom. Zoom it in, zoom in. Look at the attention to detail and this is sick graphics. And mind you, building, building a game with this level of graphics for mobile, it's on a different playing field, man. You're working with devices that are a lot smaller processors, graphic capabilities, not like PC. So exactly you got it. Zoom. There you go. Look at that. That is insane.

I mean you can just think about how this is going to look and feel like when you get your hands piloting one of these. Now having said all of that, it's very important to note that no one Frontier is not a pay to win game. You can have the best ship out there, but you need to be able to pilot it. You need to be able to control it with micro level precision. I mean single flights in games, right? There is no cruise control here. Maybe you need to be able to pilot your ship.

It's fine. This thing is fine. It's fine. That's cool. Like the kid in me right now thinks this is fire. Oh, would you like these? Are you you, you, you didn't you always want to have a spaceship as a kid, Like you know, like little boys playing with spaceships. You know what I mean? We could buy very own spaceship. Not on the in the fucking metaverse. There you go. We're all going to be Little Elon masks, aren't we? Yeah, you know what?

That's a great way to put it. We're all going to be Little Elon. I love that. I love but I I, I think this is cool. Just just your excitement about it makes me excited about it. So there's there looks like. I mean I'm going to share the screen again. I was zooming in and shit like for the people who were not watching on video like it's actually impressive. I have to say it's actually impressive the the the quality of of your stuff.

So there's 6000 comments, 200 bucks, whatever that is in ETH, now it's and then it's on. Is that on Ethereum by the way, Is it, is it? Where are these assets? Where are these? Assets. So great question right there, Farah. I mean the different perspectives on NFTS, the different chains and so on. I mean earlier today you're talking about Bitcoin ordinals and kind of stuff. But hey, look, and the other day we should embrace web through

gaming. It does not matter which chain your asset is on. I think what's important here is utility. Then we go down the route of the assets being mintable. So you buy a spaceship. It's a digital collectible. If you want to mint it, go ahead and mint it. It's a free mint. You just pay to guess. If you see value in minting it because you want to trade, or you want to keeping your wallet, or you want to gift it to your friend and family, by all means.

But if you don't want to mint it, then don't you still enjoy full features of the spaceship? But yes, if you do mint it, come into your question. It is on the east main net. Yeah, I mean we're not, we're not Maxis at all here. It's doesn't really matter. It's the acids. We're the acids. You're not Maxis. You're you're not here the Penguin either, Are you Pharaoh? I I got to get one. I mean, I like Penguins. You know, we were talking about pudgy Penguins earlier and then

you got your own Penguins too. So you know, we like the Penguins on the stage. Well, all the Penguins. We like all the Penguins. Like, your photo actually is funny. Have you ever seen a real Penguin? Yeah, I have. But not in not in their natural environment. You never been to Antarctica? Nope. Me neither. I think something something Mandel we've gone to. I'm pretty sure Mandel on this issue, I've been like, yeah, I've been. He's like, yeah, I've probably been.

You know, I should have checked when I had his passport. Anyways, so that that's pretty cool. Listen tipsy bro. Look. What where Where can people find out more about you. I mean you're on stage right now on the Twitter spaces. Your account is the the the the the account obviously your your your company's account Sorry tipsy coin. So TIPSYCOIN, tipsy coin, Some often name I guess, and So what? What? What? Where do you want? Where should people be directed to? Yeah man, thank you.

I mean just come and join, join our acts, turn on notifications, join the Discord. It's really important. Now our spaceships are launching 6 days from now is a game of demand versus supply. Demand is, is, is, you know, through the roof. Ultimately the game is free to play, right And you guys are going to be able to get your hands on it later this month. And like you rightly pointed out, right, we we have a different approach.

It's it's a game first approach. It does not matter from a project standpoint how many spaceships we sell. It will not detract from experience. You buy a lot of NFTS that you form or you want to be involved in communities only to realize that projects do not build. They make promises. They never really deliver. So I I like to say we stand out this way and hey man, this group of Penguins here right in this company. We are so funded so we stay true to our values.

We are passionate and in this fashion. You can't lie through it, right? You feel it when you're in the room. You feel the energy. Come and join the community. I'd love to see some familiar faces. Did. Let's go. I mean, I totally agree with you. You cannot fake passion. You can't fake that shit. And and and I and I feel it. I feel it. I feel it. Listen, we have a lot of guests on this show. A lot. And we get a lot of partners on

the show as well. I think we have 1:00 every single day this week and next week, including yourself and you. You're awesome. I can. I can easily see when someone actually is about their shit and and believes in their own product and and and and and will work for it. So I love that. Make sure you all check them out, all right. Make sure you check out Tipsy Corn. Make sure you check out Forever

Tipsy or Boy right here. And make sure that you can check out Milwau Frontier. If you want your own spaceship, you can get one 200 bucks, all right, starting at least for 200 bucks and you'll be able to get it in six days, right? You said six days. Exactly. I encourage people join the wait list. April 1610 AM EST and that's the launch. If you're able to get your hands on a legendary, now, that's top of the line. Those spaceships can transform in game. By the way, there is a button

and transform into a robot. I mean, this is mega cinema in your pubs. Let's go. Let's go. I love that, man. Thank you for coming. Thank you for being a show partner. We appreciate you, bro.
