154. Should Everyone be Doxed or When is it ok to be Anonymous? Apr 14, 2022

Show notes

A year ago the NFT space was filled with leaders and project founders who were using an alias and created accounts annomously. But over the the last 9 months the amount of rug pulls and scams that have taken place has forced that trend to shift with most projects now having at least 1 member of their team doxed with a link to there website or LinkedIn or background. But the real question is can we trust someone who isn't using the real name and what is the risk or barrier those who prefer to be undoxed taking on when it comes to building trust and within the future of web 3.0.

This is such a fascinating conversation and I can say my opinion has changed on the topic over the last many months while at the same time I'm working hard to not let web 2.0 limitations or constraints be forced upon web 3.0 if they aren't warranted or a requirement for mass adoption and growth within this space.

153. New to NFTs: Are you Collecting or Investing or Owning? Apr 13, 2022

Show notes

The beauty of NFTs is there is no one right way of participating yet the reason many get overwhelmed with NFTs is that there is no one right way of doing things. When it comes to being new to NFTs most focus on what NFT they should buy first but really it all comes down to the type of NFT participation and value you are seeking. Are you a

NFT Collector
NFT Investor
NFT Owner

Now it might seem pretty straight forward in picking one of these 3 roles but the complexity comes in that in many cases you will have a different role in different NFT projects and in almost all the cases you will be surrounded by others who own that same NFT but have completely different goals and value that they are seeking from this project.

The magic happens when you stay true to what your goal and value was for getting into a project which might sound easier than you think. I share in this episode a couple scenarios where I had the strategy and was committed to my goals yet fell victim to others emotions and the overall vibe of the community and ended up making decisions that were ultimately bad or just the opposite of what I had hoped for when getting into the project.

152. Aleph One ApeLiquid: Building a Super NFT Community Apr 12, 2022

Show notes

Today's guest is Aleph One who is the co-founder of ApeLiquid. ApeLiquid is a membership alpha group with frictionless whitelsits, discounted minting and an upcoming liquid $METL token and staking program called #LiquidForge.

I was excited to have Aleph on the podcast has a lot of his vision and mission is aligned with what we discuss here on NFT365 and I haven't seen many projects building a membership, pfp nft, token while also investing in other projects and that's why I had to find out more.

ApeLiquid has also partnered with many of the projects we've minted in our Mint 365 Project including:

Typical Tigers
Bunny Buddies
Psychonaut Ape Division

This episode is full of really insightful perspectives on the NFT community including why Aleph hasn't Doxed himself, the importance of doing your own research, the power of growing a super community, and also his philosophy of "Ignore, block and walk" which is how he never FUDs but also isn't afraid to push projects for answers and to deliver on their promises.

ApeLuids pfp project drops April 13th at 8pm EST at .08 ETH called Liquid Legends which you find more info here: http://apeliquid.io/

151. How to Build and Invest in a Creator Economy with a Circle Strategy! Apr 11, 2022

Show notes

“This is the reason I created the circle of trust – so we can discuss these things.” – Jack Byrnes (Meet the Folkers)

How could I possibly create a podcast that is comparing the creator strategy of web 3.0 to web 2.0 aka circle vs triangle without quoting the "circle of trust".

The funny part in many ways this shift in mindset from creating a creator monetization strategy vs building a creator economy have many connections to the concept of a "circle of trust"

In this episode I breakdown the lessons I've learned about creating a creator income of 6 figures for the last 7 years and the mindset shift I've embraced yet still am working on around creating the economy for the last 13 months.

Love to hear your thoughts on this and we are truly thankful to have each and every $ADHD coin holder and #MInt365 NFT holder on this creator economy journey with us.

150. The NFT Utility Conundrum That ALL Projects Will Face! Apr 10, 2022

Show notes

I've discussed the problems around utility in many of the past episodes in regards to what I believe projects can deliver vs which utility is just wishful thinking.

Interestingly enough the NFT projects that deliver on both projected and actual utility still have a massive problem.

The problem ties into the fact that most projects don't have a business plan and the web 3.0 world of digital ownership eliminates things like "2-year contracts" or "Grandfather pricing" which leads to a massive problem....

If you have too many unique holders there isn't enough volume of trades and secondary compensation to maintain the project...

If there are too few unique holders the project can be influenced or tanked by one or two bad actors or soiled relationships.

If you people are holding an NFT because of the utility and that utility is delivered what is the incentive for them holding?

If most of the utility of a project has already been delivered then what is the motivation for new people to jump into the project.

I believe this fall we will see many projects reach their 1 year anniversary and start to realize they have no true plan for empowering superfans and/or welcoming in new fans in a way that they never feel like they are the outsiders while also not alienating those who've been loyal to a project since the start...

What are your thoughts on this? How do you think NFT projects can solve for this? I use Veefriends as an example but even Veefriends only gives 3 years of access to Veecon... After year three what utility will GaryVee add to keep people around... I doubt it will be just a 4th Veecon....

Tool mentioned on the podcast: Icy.Tools

149. How Showing You Care with NFTs Will Change Who Wins in The End! Apr 09, 2022

Show notes

Why is it that all the people that are looked at as great innovators and leaders in the past 20 years have the same toxic traits... How can we change that? Web 3.0 is about digital ownership and we have the ability to change how and who we support and I believe this will help us move away from these toxic trait requirements for success. IF you are in a community that you don't like.. Sell your NFT and use that liquidity to find a new one...

If you don't agree with the leader's tactics then don't follow them or support them or hold their social tokens and move that support to those you align with.

TOGETHER we can make this world a better place and we can start by simply showing we care for others and going out of our way to let others know that we care!

147. NFT Use Case: Mee6 Discord Bot NFT and Coin Apr 07, 2022

Show notes

Since launching my first discord server in 2019 I've had to balance the need for automation with my love for geeking out over automation with bots and custom gated access for the community.

For the last 18 months I've been using the Mee6 bot which apparently I'm not the only one as they are being used by over 18million servers to date.

Currently NFT projects using Mee6

NFT365 Podcast
Mekaverse
VeeFriends
CyberKongz
Cool Cats
Doodles
RTFKT

So when I saw Mee6.xyz a team of 20 was launching an NFT and coin I had to get them on the podcast and they agreed and the founders Brendon and Anis joined us for a fund discussion. We covered:
