... you know, yeah.
58:29
Um, so Simple Farmer brought up towards the end of his, what he was saying, what I was gonna bring up, which is, like, how can we, how can we be better about...
58:41
You know, if we want to continue to onboard people, like as somebody who our goal at Beezy is to bring in, you know, real world collectors, and we wanna make it as simple as possible for people.
58:52
And yes, I know auditing contracts and all that stuff, right, to make sure there's none of these exploits and da, da, and all that stuff like that, right? But the idea behind, to your, to what Simple Farmer brought up, like I thought the soda machine, I think he said soda machine was a great example, right? Of like, you know, why...
59:08
I, I don't know anywhere in the real world where if I go buy something, my, you know, my, my credit card, my PayPal account is permanently connected, so anybody can just go ahead and use it, right? There's always, uh, it al- there's always that, that safety of like disconnecting once the, once the, once you pay or once you log out or whatever it is, right? And if we expect or want to continue to bring people into this space, whether it's through RWAs, whether it's through, you know, PFPs, whether it's through utility NFTs, whatever we...
59:46
There, there has to be a better way to protect people without just being like, "We're gonna have to sit here for an hour or two or eight or three days, right? To teach you how to do all of this stuff, that if you forget to do any of it, you could lose it all." And I'm not a dev.
60:10
I'm not smart enough to figure that out.
64:17
I'm not blaming Magic Eden or any of these marketplaces or Limit Break.
JoeyGUEST
33:39
in two
33:40
first edition charizards were sold on chain yesterday within a couple hours of each other um and it like as somebody who's in the collectible space and pays for collectibles insurance um It's not cheap, but it's also not expensive.
33:56
But having to pay to insure these type of items and keep track of them is no small task.
34:03
But knowing that you can keep it with us in a Brinks vault, safe, secure, and insured, and whenever you feel like it, sell it for a million dollars and not have to worry about hiring personal security or flying across the world with a million-dollar card in a briefcase that's handcuffed to your wrist.
34:23
um it really proves that what we're building with on-chain collectibles and rwas is the future and it and it transitions perfectly into what we're doing today with the luxury drop you know we're making it easier and simple simpler for people who want to collect or even just purchase high and expensive items and know that they're authentic.
34:54
I mean, eBay has an authentication process.
34:58
I don't know what it is for luxury goods.

6 MINS LATER

41:19
And then after the intro video, let us know what we might, in addition to a Birkin, what else is in, what else might we win in the luxury drop from BZ today?
24:01
Go ahead, Joey.
24:03
Yeah, I mean, there's a reason why we have the, I don't know if you call it a motto or what, where it's united, we stand divided, we fall.
24:10
To your point of how united the country was after that, I'm sure I've told this story before on here since I've been coming on here for, I don't even know, five, four years now.
24:21
And this is like our fourth 9-11, but it, for me, obviously being from New York and having family that worked uh for FDNY and NYPD and worked at the trade centers and it's uh today is like it's it's harder than most days like my my dad was driving from over the verizono bridge which for those that don't know it's the huge bridge that connects um uh staten island into into brooklyn um and he was going for a haircut because his barber forever was in was in brooklyn and he was sitting in traffic on the verizono bridge and the plane flew and he was like kind of looked up and was like that plane does not belong there flying that low and saw the first plane hit the tower from his car sitting on the verrazano bridge um and then proceeded you know to the barber where and then the second one hit and as far as brooklyn there was ash like from the buildings covering cars and floating in the sky my godmother she actually worked at the world trade center and thankfully She wasn't in the building yet.
25:49
She was literally like across the street walking to work when the first plane hit and was able to get out of the radius of danger, I guess you want to call it or whatever.
26:05
And then a lot of friends and family were FDNY and NYPD and they're there.
26:10
I mean, I saw a post today This morning, I shared it in my Instagram story of like a memorial post of all the dogs that came from all over the country.
30:45
Go ahead, Joey, and then we'll get Mike in here.
52:06
I don't know if that by itself isn't the answer, but I hear you on what can I do with the token?
52:14
i mean right now and this it's kind of crazy to bring this up but like i i'm in a discord where we're all like it's it's like one of those discords where you're all it's always hunting for discounts and specials and releases marlboro okay marlboro the cigarette company who smoke cigarettes anymore it's like you know i don't know anybody but more coming back i hear they're coming back they are Oh, so like if you're a member of Marlboro, right, like you sign up for their program every week, you get you get to spin a wheel for a chance to win like free money just for like signing up for their program.
52:55
for for their their pro their their program they're like uh their account right i don't buy cigarettes i don't care but every week that like this discord's like hey it's time to spin the wheel see if you win a free gift card right like free visa gift card or whatever it is right and like to me there should be something being done by all of these brands weekly that keeps people coming back right it keeps them rewarded so like if you're a wrecked holder why is there not like a weekly or a monthly like hey come in check in as a wrecked nft holder or a wrecked token holder and get a chance to win a free case of wrecked and i'm not saying that like that's that like to your point it's not like a hat's gonna fix all the problems right but You need to encourage people, number one, hold your NFTs and your tokens, and number two, give them a reason to keep coming back.
53:51
It sounds stupid, but that's why we created Quests at Beezy, the daily check-in and the daily claw streak.
53:58
We wanted to give people a reason to come to the website every single day even if it was just to spin one claw for $30, right, to earn points, that those points can then be used for something else.
54:10
So, like, I still hold all of my rec.
54:14
I did not sell.

42 MINS LATER

96:09

CapHOST
37:40
awesome
37:40
so um first off i want to give a shout out to dort as well who trusted me to source him some additional cards after sourcing him his two bijon robinsons i picked him up uh two wemby rookie cards I don't even know what it was a week, might've been less than a week ago.
38:00
And those cards were already up from what I was able to get them for, for him.
38:04
One's his true, people like to call it his true rookie card.
38:10
It's the 2023 Panini Prism, you know, it's, you know, it's not a refractor.
38:18
It's not a variation.
38:19
It's, It's just the true prism.

23 MINS LATER

CapHOST
61:42
I just, that... think we see a lot more of that before we see less of it i don't think it's anywhere near the top i i could be wrong here maybe maybe the top's in i just don't think so i think i think bz is on a trajectory that you'll continue to see success and growth for the foreseeable future as will some competitors we maybe see more get in it and um
