Speaker 2:Awesome, awesome, yeah, and I see we've got Mike on the stage. Long time no talk to you. How are you doing today?
Speaker 4:Hey, hey, hey, how's it going, people? What are you doing when you good? Yeah, you're telling me about the expo that you just went to and that and you're hitting up Vegas soon.
Speaker 2:big things, yeah we're actually headed out tomorrow and that's a lot of what I'll be talking about in this space, so, and I'll kind of get to it a little bit. But yeah, it has been busy, been building, been grinding. Glad you're in the space too, because you know, I definitely want to reconnect you with the world of digital identity and, you know, get your board with everything that's going on here. I know you've been in the space for quite a while in building, so it's a perfect framework for you.
Speaker 4:Yeah, absolutely, man. I've been missing on X for a hot minute. That's why I've been missing all the advancements that you've been doing. But just looking for your bits and pieces, I'm going to be sharing out a few liking and sharing out a few bits and pieces, but yeah, now I can see things are moving. Things move very quickly, man is, that's the way web for is, and you know I've been a part of this journey for a hot minute now with you yourselves. Still, there's still so much to learn and this, you know, I'm very bullish on domains. They're just just looking at all the fine details, like they just, yeah, it's just amazing how much you can actually do with domains. Like, if you guys are new to this, just just hit up when, or even go on YouTube, man, and just there's so much, there's so much info. I mean, that's what I do anyway, I'll definitely help when I'm loving the merch as well, when I'm doing it. Very nice, very nice stuff, yeah, man.
Speaker 5:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I'll actually talk about that a little bit as well. And yeah, um, you know, like I said, glad to have you here. We're just at the very beginning. This expo is actually, you know, a big part of the foundation of that beginning, which is why it's so important. So, yeah, you're here, definitely at the right time. I should. We also have crypto not on stage? How are you doing? Today? It's my first time eating you somebody.
Speaker 6:Hey, thanks for having me. Yeah, it's nice to digitally meeting you as well. Excited to be here and and talk all things Domain and and marketing and stuff. So happy to dive in.
Speaker 2:Absolutely absolutely and last but definitely not least, I see we got Paige on the stage. Are you already out there in Vegas yet, or are you still on the way I? I've got. Sometimes you have issues with the computer and I'm getting the mic on. As soon as you do, though, please Definitely bless us and let us know what you're planning for the X bar as well. Yeah, without further ado, I think we're going to go ahead and get started, as always. If you guys could please do me a favor Again, go to the bottom right hand corner.
Speaker 2:Like to retweet the space? Let's get people in here. Share the level of domains. And, yeah, welcome to another I heart domains tech talk, where we discuss news, innovations, education and alpha in the web through domain and digital identity space.
Speaker 2:As always, our tech talks are recorded, so you can listen back to them here, or you can view them on our content calendar at link three dot to video forward slash, defy, wallet. Also, you can view them on our website at I heart domainscom. Are complete content archive is there. You not only see our twitter spaces or our tech talk, you'll also see blog posts and all that good stuff. And then also, yeah, we're on every major podcast player as well. So if you have Spotify or Apple or anything like that, you'll be able to listen back there. And, yeah, pinned a couple things to the top of the space. Again, I want to say thank you and go back to my speakers. Reintroduce you guys as if you've got page trying to come back up. Also, have uncle Nate on stage as well, if you want to say hi real quick before we get into this Subject. Sir, how you doing?
Speaker 7:I'm doing great GM, gm, how you doing.
Speaker 2:Doing pretty good. Man excited for tomorrow.
Speaker 7:Yeah, I know it's uh, it's finally come down down to the wire. Here I'm I'm still on the fence here. Unfortunately, I've got some things going on so I might not be able to make it in person. I'm really Really bumming about that, but I'm gonna try to do it. So hopefully we'll see you in Vegas.
Speaker 2:Yeah and and for those of you who can't make it in person, um, do not fret. I believe that um ish is going to make it available as a virtual conference Now. I even believe he said that there's going to be some additional content on there as well. So, um, this is truly, uh, a demeanor event For all, and he's making it accessible to all. Um, so yeah, um, if you can't make it Definitely sad not to see everybody in person, um, but the value should still be there for you If you're coming to get that information and learn from those panel sessions. Um, so yeah, glad that he's at least doing that.
Speaker 8:What's up? What's up, marcus?
Speaker 2:What's going on page? You? You still at home, are you already? I'm still at home.
Speaker 8:But but it happened at happen, at happen at a breaking news. Uh, but, but. But boy, if you doubt it at all, what the hottest thing in domains right now is, it's dot ai, goodness gracious.
Speaker 2:That is actually kind of on my uh opening topics to speak about, because yeah, yeah ai sales are going crazy.
Speaker 8:Well, it's live right now. We got the expired name auction and, uh, we've got engage dot ai topping the scales at. I'll ask the, the co-host and the speakers when do you think engage dot ai is in an expired name auction Still going? Each new bid adds an hour to the auction and where do you think it is right now?
Speaker 2:Now I saw a glimpse of it. No, go for it. They were tips. Go for.
Speaker 3:No, I didn't see it. I was gonna sit there and say somewhere above 50k.
Speaker 2:I was gonna say I saw a glimpse of it and I think it was like 31, 41 or something like that. When I saw it.
Speaker 8:Wow, namer your spot on I. I'm amazed. I have never seen anything. It's at 58,210.
Speaker 8:I promise you, I did not look at anything, so you nailed it for an expired name meaning that's wholesale Meaning they've got to be unless there's two end users battling it out. They've got to be projecting an end user sale here of 250 to a million. In my opinion, you know, to Throw 58 out there In less sharing end user. They could be end users. But uh, predictions in second place at 31,000. And normally I wouldn't give out expired name auction stuff. You know what I mean, because someone could be, you know, like me, could be buying it. But these top ones, it's like no one's hiding on these, right, I mean, these aren't slipping under the radar. So I'm not going to ever mention names that are like at 200 or 300, because I know if I was bidding on them, I want them to stay low. But engage prediction. And then heai is 22,000 and then DAPai is 8100. So big money moving in that AI into Dynadots pocket.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I've actually been sharing or re-sharing a lot lately stuff from like Andy Booth. He's been posting a lot aboutai where he envisioned and some of his entries. As you guys know, we hold Web3Demainsai. It currently points to the iHeartDemainsbot. So anybody who is looking for Web3Demain Education, whether you're a beginner or experienced yeah, you can either visit iHeartDemainsbot or Web3Demainsai. But I agree and we're seeing it, so the expire auctions are getting those kind of numbers. We're still at the early stages, even in development of AI. You've got different models that are still being produced and generated. Yeah, I know we've talked about beforecom being king and nothing replacing that and not over speculating, but I thinkai is probably a winner and we're really starting to see that now on the number side. And that's without even real applications on them yet, and as we start seeing more people use them, like we said, to name bots to build different things like that, that value is going to continue to go through the roof and they're not cheap either. What is it? 72 something per year for the registration.
Speaker 8:Yeah, go ahead.
Speaker 3:Oh no no, no I was just getting ready to say absolutely, and with most registrars you have to register two years in advance. If I had to guess, I think I think what we're getting ready to see that I think the next wave is because right now it's a single word, right? I think the next wave is going to be like the brandables and the hacks of the hacks that use that AI in them, which, honestly, on this side, we're pretty much we're pretty fans of. One of the ones that we hold is UAE DUB AI. So UAE, dubai, and so it's going to be. I think that's going to be a big thing. But yeah, pardon me, paige, I know I just kind of landed my jet somewhere on your terrain.
Speaker 2:I was going to also say, speaking of auctions, one of the things that's also going to be a part of the domain or auction and, as you guys have probably seen if you follow any domainers, it's currently live for pre-bidding now it's the right of the dot auction. There's a lot of inventory in this right of the dot auction as well, so which is actually going to set a precedent a little bit of history, so we'll see. So this is a combination web two and web three auction, but not only that, it's also a multi asset as far as on the web three side auction, which is what makes this one super unique and really the first of its kind, because we've seen the multi asset auction as far as the web two and web three, at Namescon last or earlier this year they auctioned off two unstoppable. We saw the big unstoppable auction that did with right of the dot a few months ago and now this one's a big one. We've got 244 items in here right now. We've got names from unstoppable, we've got web two, dot com names and we've got free name domains and I anticipate probably seeing some E&S in there pretty soon. So, yeah, wanted to remind you guys of that. We actually have a name in the auction. It is purchasecrypto. So if anybody is bullish on that name, yeah, go ahead and check out the auction.
Speaker 2:Like I said, it's available for pre bidding right now. I think it's running until the 14th. So, yeah, wanted to point that out as well. I don't know if there's any dot a eyes in there. I didn't submit any of my dot a eyes to the auction but yeah, there's definitely some grails in there, like there's some real domain names in there. So if you guys are familiar with rather dot, they are the largest auctioneer went through domains or not? What three domains? But what two domains that there aren't? And, yeah, actually at this point with three domains, right, but they have done, I think, over half a billion dollars worth of domain auction sales and, yeah, a lot of premium inventory goes through there. So great opportunity to look through and not only try to find some of those UD and free name grails, but also some comms in there. If you've got the budget and you see it, see some use of them. So you're back with us.
Speaker 8:Yeah, so I think I like neighbor tips. You know AI is definitely hot, but because it's in the stock market car lands, it's got a bid underneath it. You know what I mean. You've got wholesalers, you got wholesale liquidity, which is good Because on an expired name you could probably get out of it. You know where you need to, because the distribution is so limited once a month, a single auction from a single provider of exclusive inventory.
Speaker 8:I think some of the numbers that are popping are a little high, so I'm staying away and I I usually wait. But some of the names that I liked this morning that had no bid, you know what I mean. The old dilemma, no bid with 10 minutes left to go, and then I bid once because I found them and no one else did, is the least the way I consider it myself. You know what I mean. And then all of a sudden, three hours later, it's at a thousand bucks. So I wondered to myself well, if I wouldn't have been on it, would it have dropped? And so that's the way I'm playing it, and the only reason I say that is really allocate your capital right now, because, say you had 20,000 to invest in dot AI, there may be some part of it that you're going to spend on the best quality names, but that's still probably going to be illiquid. You know what I mean. If you bought, even if you bought something like DAPai for eight grand because you think you can get 80 to 150, you may not always be able to get your eight out of it.
Speaker 8:Now some people would say, oh my gosh, you'll get 20 out of it whenever you want, but once the market starts moving and you've got investment in these names, you've got downside. You know that you don't have when you buy at a floor like a Regfee domain, does that make sense? You know just that as it gets that your domain is a combination of preservation of capital and trying to grow your upside. But where AI is for one words, as neighbor tip said, you're definitely committing capital. You know to be locked up and it's not the same as the reason I love domaining most of the time with the hand read or an auction name or even a hand read JI name. As I'm looking at, 150 maximum loss to hold the name for two years, 10,000 gains potential, you know what I mean. So a lot of upside. My loss is limited. But if I go in there and start picking up six and eights and 10s and 20s, depending on where you sit. I think that's something just to be careful of money management when something is rocking this way. A wholesale.
Speaker 2:Definitely some solid advice, kind of as a rule of thumb too. Even with Web3Domainsai, every single domain in our portfolio, with the exception of one, which is irdomainscom, it's a hand registered domain and it's because of that right I can. I can fall on the sword if it doesn't work. But the upside is it's crazy, right, if you, if you have any good hits on any of those names, especially if you're able to build on them and create the narrative and the value that way, go for it, chris.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I was just gonna second you on that whole building it out thing. I think getting the name and and having it and weighing out your prospects is definitely an important part of it. But of course, when you build on top of it in some way, you can go ahead and you can leverage that as well. So it's a lot of technology out here. So if you get a AI name, maybe you can plug it into a bot or something, and if you plan to move the name that way, maybe you can move it in concert with the bot and up sale, whoever it is that you're going after.
Speaker 2:Yeah, and again, ai has made it super easy for everyone to make something that they can then connect to the dot AI or to a bot, including the bots and including AI websites. And, yeah, I look forward to having you know a good, what solid three days worth of these conversations and learning from people who not only have, you know, new ideas to bring to the table, but also have you know, expertise from previous success in this space that I don't have. That can help, you know, take my portfolio to the next level. And, with that being said, let's go ahead and get into this main topic, which is just that, the power of networking, and we're going to be talking about the Domainer Expo and not necessarily to sell you the Domainer Expo. This one is going to be more about why we're going and how we plan to make the most of it, and definitely want to put some you know ideas and invitations out there to anyone else who is going.
Speaker 2:You know, if you like the vibe and the tip that we've been on, since you know you've been tuned in with us, I definitely invite you to connect with me and see if we can take that relationship further.
Speaker 2:But yeah as I said you know, tomorrow I will be flying out to Las Vegas to take part in the first Domainer Expo, which is a Web 2 and Web 3 domain focus networking event and conference. And yeah, like I said, this space is to touch on exactly what it is and why we're going. Also, afterwards on this space, we're going to open up for some virtual networking. So, to those of you who are on stage and for anyone who wants to come up, if you'd actually like to share your project, request your speaker roll, we'll give you a few moments to do so. Yeah, so we're going to go ahead and connect with people now while we're on here. Yeah, and before we get started, if anybody has anything to say, go for it. I see we've got King up here as well. How you doing. Always good to have you in the space.
Speaker 9:Good afternoon, good day everyone. Just checking in with the legends and the geniuses in this space. I will be in attendance at the conference this week. I'm looking forward to meeting a lot of you.
Speaker 2:Yeah also definitely looking forward to meeting you as well and hearing about your plans and what you've got going on with the music and the space. And, yeah, see, it's about connecting. A lot of great ideas are going to be burned from this conference. It's going to be a convergence of some of the best people in both the web 2 and the web 3 space and I anticipate it being extremely different from namescon, and I'll explain why. So, for those of you who are listening and wondering what is a domain or expo, I think I touched on it before, but, as I said earlier, it is a web 2 and web 3 domain conference that is being put on and hosted by our friend, ishmael Oyekana, I believe is how you say his name correctly. I think he is already out there, but, yeah, it's going to be on the 6th and 7th, so that's Wednesday and Thursday at the Westgate Casino in Las Vegas.
Speaker 2:And yeah, this conference, if any of you are familiar with namescon, namescon is a domain focus conference that was burned in the web 2 space. I believe its focus is still in the web 2 space. I've gone for the past two years. During those past two years, they've had sessions that were web 3 focused, which has been great. As Isha said a few times, there are moments where it's felt like you're kind of the sideline or the side project to be spoken about. So he created this conference in order for us to kind of be the focus of the conversation and create an environment where you know the builders who really want to focus on growing the space forward can have you know that form or that venue where those opportunities exist.
Speaker 2:And obviously, if it's more concentrated like that, if you have more people in a room that understand exactly what you're doing and how you're building it, you're not being sidetracked with conversations about people even trying to understand what web 3 domains are. We'll definitely have a more progressive conversation here. So very much looking forward to seeing people who have called peers and colleagues over. You know the past. You know year professionally, two and a half years as an investor in this space. But yeah, that's the answer to the. What is the main expo? And, yeah, going to get into the why we're going specifically. But before I do anybody on the panel want to tap in.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I'll go as far as saying that you know the the Domainer Expo is. Actually it's a great opportunity. I think that it's. It's a necessary at this phase. Everyone has probably been paying attention and what's been happening with the crypto space right. So you know the the numbers are going up. You know people are excited, right, but what we have to make sure that we don't do is embrace that side of things that is being a creature of habit. Right, there's a lot of not so great things that we've seen happen in the space leading up into this point. So I think that, as it seems, things are picking up in the crypto and web 3 space in general. I think that this convention is is key because it's going to make a lot of things real right, it's going to connect a lot of people and I think that there's going to be a lot of healthy accountability that's going to be birthed. So that's something I'm looking forward to.
Speaker 8:Yeah, that's pretty tough, chris. Hey, I'm looking forward to it because you know I've been to 50 internet conferences and there's going to be things in this room in terms of the community, the inclusiveness, the, the average age, people coming from outside the domain space. You know, the domain space really hasn't changed in 20 years and it's it is clicky and it is maybe non-inclusive in some ways and and and I think what's been exciting about that is to get some of the energy from these new projects that skipped the old domain and went right to the customer and said what do they want, what do they want to feel, how do they want to be marketed to? It's going to be a pleasure to be on stage Thursday morning with my daughter. Uh, julie's here and and, uh, she's joined us in the space.
Speaker 8:You might be requesting a speaker as communitycfd and julie has really helped me, uh, in the last year, because I've told her don't let me tell you about domaining. I want you to tell me about your generations, because I feel like all they know is social media and apps and mobile and their phone and they don't remember that you, that you should have a domain, and the worst thing I can do is just tell them hey, you need a domain, because I did. But anyway, uh, marcus, I want to introduce julie uh to the stage if you want to welcome her up.
Speaker 2:Definitely would love to welcome her, julie, how are you doing?
Speaker 10:I'm doing excellent. Can you guys hear me Okay?
Speaker 10:Yes, ma'am, we can sometimes sorry, my headphones kind of cutting it out sometimes, but I'm definitely super excited. This is my first conference and I get to go with my dad. You know this is something I've been watching him do excellent at my entire life and it's been really really cool to start getting into this space and I think it's definitely A great. I'm getting into it in such a great way because I am learning from someone who is so intellectual on everything in here. But it's like, oh, I also feel like I have things that I can teach as well. I think it's going to be really exciting kind of see that merger.
Speaker 2:Yeah, see, and you're actually part of the why we're going, and it's to meet, definitely, people like you To talk about different extensions that are out there on the web two side that have A lot of promise, a lot of hope, especially as we start, you know, building in this space in the narrative of digital identity, where literally every single extension Is going to be able to build and create its own community and potentially, you know, have its own perks, even if they're community driven. A lot of people look up to your dad, so you definitely are lucky With, with the entry that you have in this space, with the, you know, getting to be around all that expertise and wisdom constantly. Yeah, looking forward to having those conversations and this is so, yeah, exactly what I was saying earlier. The why that we're going is there are certain conversations, there are certain people that you are only going to meet in person. Yeah, I haven't been to 50 conferences quite yet in the crypto space, but I've been to quite a bit and that that is the biggest difference. That's.
Speaker 2:The rest that you get from going is you get to see people and and you get to connect with vibes and a lot of times, ideas come from just being around people having a conversation, casual conversation. Then it coming up and Previously you didn't know that there was any connection between your two projects. But that's how it has to happen sometimes, naturally and this is, again, not to discourage or Anybody who's not able to go, but it doesn't encourage you. You know, in the future, if you do have events and things like that near you, to try to make that effort to go to them, because I'm telling you, there's literally conversations that I've held back on that I'm purposely intending to have out here, because I feel that they're better suited when I can look at that person in the eye. So, yeah, definitely a welcome to you up to the stage. Looking forward to meeting you, as well as seeing Seeing Paige again, yeah, huh. Well, it's very much a pleasure to meet you.
Speaker 8:Yeah, I think and, marcus, I think, the other thing you know, when I found CFD, I literally look for for the least Registered domains in any TLD and I saw CFD and they had just rebranded it for clothing, fashion and design.
Speaker 8:They were going to launch it at fashion week in Milan in 2021, right when Covid hit and you know, the timing just couldn't be worse and so all the energy they had in advance. I looked at it and I said, you know, because I have two daughters and, and I have a wife and, and there's a lot of domain spaces out there, whether it's crypto or money or all kinds of other things, so to speak, it really has been a man dominated space, a male dominated interest in some ways. And not that man can't be involved in clothing, especially not fashion intent, but, um, I think that I did say you know what. There's a? There's a people besides, maybe younger generations, just girls and women that can realize the power of owning a domain. Um, so, julie, I think that helped that a little bit, that you've had fun thinking about fashion brands and influencers and things like that.
Speaker 10:Oh, 100 percent. My personal style has definitely increased, um, since joining. This is definitely not the goal, but it has been a fun sidekick or side effect but it's been. It's been super fun to be kind of a minority in the space, because it's new and it's fun, it's cool and I can't wait to bring other people into it because it kind of brings in this whole Gen Z thing of you know. Stop working in nine to five, stop working for someone else, do your own thing, build your own company, and that really starts with a name and an idea, which is a domain like that starts through website.
Speaker 3:You know what's beautiful and and hi, julia, it is nice to meet you and what you just stated was just so refreshing, because you know, I come from a creative background and I work with creatives here in new york city and when you everything that you spoke just funneled into being liberation, right. Um, I think that is great that you and your father are going to be attending the conference, because the angle that I'm visiting with and my colleagues are visiting with is family in the future. So to see in real time that you have a wisdom and experience Driven individual that's supporting you and you're here in this space and we see it, we're seeing it materialized, that's what, that's what makes this convention special. So I look forward to meeting you guys in person and if you're here and you're listening, take note. This is what it's about passing it down and and moving things forward and and understanding that it's about things getting better and not going backwards.
Speaker 2:Yes, sir, yes, sir, and I wanted to just let everybody know. If you're on the speaker stage, feel free to chime in at any point. This is a little less structured, a little more relaxed space. Um, and also, yeah, um Definitely wanting to talk more about the cfds. When I see you in person I think I've already told page. I have a background in men's wear and luxury clothing space so can definitely help, um, you know, guide you in the right direction, connecting with some influencers and some brands there. Um, also wanting to talk to page about the dot la. Uh, because I really want to want to hear more about, uh kind of that. Uh, that extension. I think I have my daughter's name hack on that extension, so, uh, I might be doing some fun stuff as far as branding the fact that she has her own Uh domain name and digital identity. Um, that might perp. You know that that might actually benefit Uh dot la in some way. So, uh, definitely look forward to having that conversation too.
Speaker 8:Yeah, absolutely. I feel like, um, it's going to go fast because you just accelerate conversations so much better in person. And I think about, like, when you and I you know, you and I met before You're willing to take a risk and and say, well, let's do it. Well, let's do it right now, you know I mean, well, how can I add some Amplification to your daughter's digital identity with their like right now? You know, there's just that sense of being in person that makes you want to, to make things happen. Um, uh, so, yeah, I look forward to it.
Speaker 8:And uh, julie, thanks for coming in. She's at her for day job. But, julie, I'm going to give you one more shout out because I'm so proud of what you've done here, because you kind of amazed me. You came up with the phrase Uh, this part of the internet is yours. And if you think about what we're all trying to do with community and everything, what a great way of phrasing that. There's a place on the internet for clothing, fashion and design influencers, brand Ope, uh, brand, you know people that own brands stylist, um, and it's here and it's waiting for you. So, julie, I really like this part of the internet is yours.
Speaker 10:Thank you. Yeah, I do see I can be applied to. You know any CLD. You're trying to create a community for it. You know the internet is huge. Anything that big is going to be so overwhelming. You like you're trying to learn it all, but no, you really just have to learn your one little niche of the internet and it makes it, makes your one little site bigger, because it puts you into a group. And yet there's always strength in numbers Before I. You know I'm probably not gonna head off all I have time today, job today, but I did want to say I'm very excited to meet all of you that are going because you know your, your profile pictures are beautiful, but I'm excited to actually get that genuine connection and kind of hear what everyone's about.
Speaker 6:Hey, I just wanted to jump in and applaud Paige and Julia. There you guys totally hit the emphasis of what a true, you know community member is all about and basically just opening your mouth and being passionate about what you guys are doing. So I think it's great that you guys are doing this Domainer expo, because it is all about starting the conversation. Communication is the key to everything. It's our in our relationships, it's in our, it's in our basically built into our DNA. We want to connect with other people and People that aren't afraid to open their mouths and talk about what they're passionate about. That's where true change comes from, and so I applaud you guys. Just listening to a father daughter kind of combo there, I mean that's what it's gonna take. I mean I've tried to instill what I've learned over two decades of of my expertise of working with online community members and you know, things like that and and it's.
Speaker 6:It's awesome to see where the next generation is going to take it. I know that I'm probably not the one that's going to be making the change it's. It's somebody that's listening to my voice or listening to one of these kind of AMA's Across the board that's going to get sparked. It's going to get inspired to take and introduce the next level of things. So I applaud you guys. Good job.
Speaker 2:Yeah, just to re-highlight on that, that's like dad goes for real right like I'm. I'm a girl dad. Yeah, that really is nice that that you know your daughter is following in her way like is creating her own lane.
Speaker 2:You know that. That, what do you call it? Compliment your footsteps, right, we'll say it that way and yeah, that's, that's definitely some goals for, like the cryptometer saying you know a lot of the change. You know we're sparking, you know kind of initial spark of it. But the people who come after us, for the ones we're truly going to build what it becomes, even the possibility, you know, being able to build narratives now behind you know some of these web 2tlds like they've been here, they've existed, but web 3 has given. You know the technology, the. You know there's a lot of identity. The movement behind it is definitely giving, you know, repurposed and use and that's all coming, you know, from the minds of the generations that come After us that are really going to be using these names and building, you know, their empires behind the spark that we set now. So, yeah, again, dad goes. Hopefully my daughter thinks I'm cool enough to want to do this when she understands you know some of the names that I got for her and start using them.
Speaker 3:Yes, it's. What's beautiful about this is that you have an active, I mean, you have an actual marker For the time in which you started to really notice that individuals were being stewards for better change, a more equitable internet experience, because I think it's easy to Hear people talk about the people when it comes to onboarding, but those of us who are individuals, who are family oriented and so on and so forth, we understand that. You know, it has to be more than worse. It has to be action, and usually that action starts to take shape with education. So, you know, I'm gonna be honest with you, just sitting back and just hearing the dialogue between page and his daughter, it's very important because of the fact that page could tell us these stories, right, he could say you know, julie, she, this is what she's doing and this is what she's, but to she's so eloquently stated what the goal is. And you, you're looking, I'm just staring at the PFPs and I'm like this is amazing to see this Connection that has been fostered away from these spaces Present itself within these spaces and serve as a form of inspiration. And so, you know, I want to say kudos to you all.
Speaker 3:You know, in visiting Vegas, I definitely look forward to speaking to you all because my, my, my eldest daughter actually has quite the background, and so when I see this and I hear, it warms my heart and I like to. You know I'm a hugger, if you know this appropriate, I'll hug because I think that the support is very important Because in we live in a world where there's just so much ugliness right, and people are quick to try to discount what's positive and what's progressive and what's needed. So to hear individuals talk about, listen, we are taking these, we're making these positive strides, it makes you proud to be a part of something like this. So, you know, thank you guys.
Speaker 10:I'm definitely the problem over here, you know here my dad say to all of his colleagues like, oh, I'm so proud of my daughter. That's enough to make me cry in the first place, but I think it's gonna be. It's so important when we work in a Internet oriented space there's a lot of entrepreneurship, there's a lot of individualism. I think it's gonna be really important that we come together as a community kind of lean on each other. So I think it's gonna get really easy to become very cutthroat and I think every everything just works better when you work together with other people, and so I think that's gonna be really important and that's the joy of communities. You can also, because you can be in your communities but not be directly competing against each other and you really can just kind of lean on each other and support each other. So I'm really honored to be, you know, coming into this. I've enjoyed it way more than I ever thought I would.
Speaker 2:And I believe you're actually gonna be dropping a little bit of that knowledge on us on one of the panels, right? Yes, yes, yes, me, and me and dad are gonna be on a panel.
Speaker 10:Thursday morning at 9 30. Hopefully I've got some cool stuff that you guys would love to hear, definitely definitely.
Speaker 2:I see you, definitely definitely. I see pages going go for it oh.
Speaker 8:Man, I didn't even think about it, but I may. I may have to. There may be someone you know slicing some onions up on stage 9 30 on Thursday, you never know. But hey, julie, you did a tick-tock recently where you were talking about your brand, julie jewels dot CFD, and I love the way you said this one's for the girls. And then do you remember what you said afterwards? Because I think that's the story about it is, we'd love to make it more Occlusive for women and girls to get into the domain space, maybe even those that have husbands or dads or brothers or Significant others that have been doing this crazy domain thing, and I think women do look at things differently. But do you remember the line you had about this is for the girls?
Speaker 10:and then what you said, I said, this is for the girls, but it's also for the boys and it's mainly for the boys who have girls. I Know you're talking about your brand.
Speaker 8:But yeah, I think that matches up with with, hopefully, a way that we can grow the community.
Speaker 10:Yeah, 100% agree. There's always it's everything's always better whenever it's more inclusive, in my opinion.
Speaker 2:And I'm definitely looking forward to everybody getting together at the expo and building towards this inclusivity. And this is usually, you know, the people who show up in person and things like this are very much open-minded. This is definitely where I feel the future of Web 3 domains, digital identity, even web 2 domains and how they incorporate in digital identity. I feel like a lot of that is going to be Constructed. A lot of deals are going to be made here. A lot of hands are going to be shaking here. Lot is going to come from this because we're going to have the best in the building From all generations. For those of you who are just now tapping in want to be welcome, you guys, to this. I heart domains, tech talk. We are talking about the power of networking and the remainder expo that is coming up in the sixth and seventh. It's just a couple days way. I'll be heading out there tomorrow to get started. I know some people are already there and are heading up there today as we speak. Very much looking forward to meeting everyone up there. We have both Paige and Julie and Chris and King up on stage. That will all be there, so look forward to meeting all you guys wanted to host this space Just as one final space before we get out there to let you guys know what we're actually planning to do out there. So when you see me, you know how to connect with me and so, yeah, let's get into that. So, first and foremost, we are actually the blessed by ish to have a booth out there, so I'm gonna be setting up a booth to make myself extremely easy to find you guys to connect to network One of the things that I do want to offer.
Speaker 2:And so you know, I've been milling around this and, like I said, you know this, this conference is a lot different from other conferences. I've been to, you know, eat, different consensus a couple times and a lot of the major ones and smaller ones, and most of the time, the focus of the conference certainly isn't domains or went to or went three. Most of the time you kind of lost there and you're you're just meeting random people or connecting as you can, and most of the conversations again With people who may be the first time having that conversation, it's different right Way, different quality of people. Again, my hands are gonna be shaken, deals are gonna be made. I want to create the most optimum environment for people to connect with me as possible. I want to learn about people. I want to provide you value before you even provide it to me. So one of the things I'm going to be doing Is I'm gonna have a little thing there with the QR code.
Speaker 2:It's simply links to my calendar. Oh, it's a free conversation that you can set up. I want to talk and I want to set up an AMA and I'm gonna do a free MA for you. The end Don't have to buy nothing, don't have to hear from me ever again. If you've got a project and you want me to talk about it, I want to learn about it, I want to put some love to it. I want to show my value to the community that way, by giving your projects some exposure, so that we're doing our part that way to help grow the space. So anybody, if you see me at my booth, come connect with me, come chat with me, talk to me all day about what you've got going on. I want to hear it and then I want to get you on the book so we can do an AMA for you on one of these spaces.
Speaker 2:In addition to that, we're also blessed to be on a panel with Both Chris from Namertips I see we've got Anna in the audience as well and then we also have Chris from Integra's. We're gonna be on a panel, believe the title of the panel is. But what is the opportunity in the? Or how big is the opportunity in digital ID, which you know I can sit here and talk about all day, but what a powerful topic, right? So very blessed and glad to be speaking on that.
Speaker 2:The people that we have on the panel I don't think I've ever gotten a chance to speak with Chris from Integra's before, but both Anna and Chris from Namertips I've talked to a whole bunch of times and I couldn't be prouder to have those two on a panel with us With me, talking about that subject, which they are both definitely experts on, and looking forward to Everybody getting to hear their perspective on where the space is going. And then, lastly, I think I warned a few of you that I'm gonna be walking around with my gimbal shooting some footage for, again, I still don't know what to call it, we'll just call the documentary for that for the better term. But I'm creating a small project to kind of chronicle, you know, the the advancements, the beginnings, the narrative behind, like I said, digital identity.
Speaker 2:Again, kudos and shout outs to ish, because this is mainly made possible because he created this conference and is able to get this type of people in the same building, are you know? And so, taking advantage of that opportunity, since we're gonna have people like Matt, anna, chris page, we've got people from web to Bruce Todd, we've got all these great people in the building I'm gonna try to get as many of them on camera as possible to give us, you know, a word or two About how they feel about you know the current state of digital identity words going and you know what role they plan on playing in it, getting it all on camera and, you know, compiling it in some sort of documentary to put out there for everyone else to enjoy. So that is what we will be doing out there.
Speaker 2:Sorry for being so long-winded. Go for it. The panel has anything say.
Speaker 3:Oh no, no, listen, you know I'll be there for it myself. I'm come with a couple of colleagues, you know we're gonna, you know, canvas the space for as long as we, as long as we can. I'm really, I'm fine, I'm moving some things around so that I can go ahead and be there for both days, but I'll definitely be there for the day that we speak and I'm gonna that's my goal to connect with everyone, shake everyone's hands, you know, put put faces to, you know, to PFPs, and really just be a support of every, you know, of everyone that's there. I think that's really going to be important. I mean, you talked about having honor on the panel. Like that's an awesome one, having the other, chris, on the panel. I haven't met him yet, but that's all to be interesting and, like you said, we speak regularly. So you know it's going to be good to, you know, have it in person and just just taking in everyone else's you know presentations, because when you talk about like page, you know page is he's, he's reputable in this space, right? So everyone's going to be listening to what he has to bring to the table and others.
Speaker 3:But then there's those unique elements that I think are going to make this even more special, you know, because I had no idea that paid was going to be there with his daughter.
Speaker 3:And then when you sat there and you said that you know they were going to be having a presentation together and pay, you sat there and said some onions were going to be peeled. Well, listen, man, I'm going to have my tissue with me because, at the end of the day, it's going to be moments like that that are going to be memorable. So I'm glad you are there. I heart you know capturing this footage, because one thing is going to be important is that we don't just walk away from it with our own experiences or the hearsay, but that it's also documented so the world can see it right, because if the world sees this and they see how everyone has come together, it's inclusive. You have individuals from different generations, different backgrounds. Everybody is on the same page. I think that is going to make for some great events in the future, right and hopefully a better world, if I dare say.
Speaker 2:Absolutely. I'm actually thinking about adding an extra day as well because, like I said, I think there's so much that's going to be going on. I'm so bullish and there's so much that we are all building. You know, even this two days isn't enough. But yeah, as you said, you know this and you know I felt about this from the start. For those of you who you know, it may be your first exposure to web through domains.
Speaker 2:I really hope that you guys tune in, you know, not only to the content that all of us here are going to be putting out while we're out here, but also to the virtual expo, because, really, you know, if anything makes sense at all about Qwip3, about the value of blockchain, about the new ability, it would be ownership of identity, ownership of the assets that you create within your identity, making it easier to navigate and control your wallet, and this is what our space is all about.
Speaker 2:So I do believe that we are going to be building the biggest next evolution of tech and you know events like these are definitely important for that networking to make it happen. Anybody else on the panel have anything to add? Before we kind of get into the next part, I think, as I mentioned, I'm going to open up for a little bit of virtual networking. So I know we've heard from both Julie and Paige wanted to open up to anybody else who wants to talk about their project, if you'd like to. Also, especially if you're going to the web, to the Domainer Expo, yeah, tell us about what you're going to be bringing to the table out there, what you're going to be sharing as well, so that people know to look for you and connect, Especially you, King. What are we going to talk about?
Speaker 9:You know some number of things. Really, one of the things that really put in those domains is the good use. You know, besides my business and the music industry, I have a technology licensing business where you basically allow or enable non-technical founders to go from idea to app store 90% faster, 90% less expensive than the traditional means.
Speaker 9:We also have some web resolutions and some traditional web 2 solutions as well. We do believe that enabling individuals to put their domains to use and actually create an asset out of them will actually enable them to potentially tokenize and fractionalize ownership of those assets as well. So you know this and I got a few things up our sleeves as far as what we're going to do and introduce, but overall it's going to be pretty beneficial for anyone who does have assets they're sitting on right now that are underutilized.
Speaker 2:Yeah, definitely look forward to tapping in and picking your brain as well, and definitely glad to hear that you're coming. And hi, I see we've got right up on the stage as well. I actually met you out at Eve Denver, I know if you remember me most people, I think I wear my heart to main stuff everywhere, but I'm yeah, wasn't that?
Speaker 5:wasn't that at the ENS? Wasn't that at the ENS? Deal with Sadov through on? Yes, sir, yes, sir, yeah, absolutely I remember, those are some hell of a good food truck. Yeah, now I totally remember that. Yeah, you were out there. Yeah, totally, 100%. That's that. That's a beauty of branding, right?
Speaker 2:That's a beauty of looking forward to seeing you again as well. I also have a lot of expertise to bring to the table on both the web to web three side as well. Let's tell people about you. I actually just grabbed the ENS Maxi the other day too.
Speaker 5:Oh, awesome, yeah. So you know I was early my partners and I early on web to like like we're talking like early nineties, you know and we started a couple of internet malls. I came from the import, export side, I'd spent my major in college, was Chinese and I spent some time about six years over in Taiwan, hong Kong, whatnot. So I was looking at really just looking at a way to cut out some middleman and you know the internet was an easy way to print a catalog. It was just getting started, so yeah, so we kind of rode that wave mostly from not so much the domain side, but mostly from actually just building companies and then, you know, literally wound up setting, I think we set up almost a million and a half websites. You know we kind of later on, after like 2000 stuff, after we sold, made our first exits. We just did a lot of marketing to like you know, initially we were going after businesses and then in the end we just kind of went after more mom and pause. We did infomercials, we did you name every kind of marketing known to man. But you know we were at our peak and all of them we were setting up about 5,000 websites a week. So obviously we had to help everyone. We had people that specialized and just getting the people their domains and so, you know, I never, never, sold the domain, but we sold a lot of companies. We'd also we'd also build a lot of kind of websites, get some traffic, get the organic traffic, maybe load them up with products, because we were really on the cutting edge of drop shipping and we had numerous warehouses ourselves. So we shipped for Amazon, overstock, you name it early on. So, yeah, so kind of really into that web two thing until I got burned out and then bought a salt mine in California and kind of got into a Bitcoin mining just as kind of a side thing and then I went full time, really caught the vision of it in 2017 and I've been full time since and now I have three partners and we run a kind of a web three VC fund. We're based out of British Virgin Islands and we own exchange in the US called CoinZoom, which is an up and coming exchange. We basically spent 10 years and about $10 million just on all the legal compliance and cutting I'm not sure what the number is and In the web three domain Space but Of platform but can't really it's not finalized completely so we can't really announce that. But, yeah, we invest in just web three companies and platforms and things like that.
Speaker 5:And so, yeah, I'm mainly just coming to this conference. That you know, obviously been NFTs, been in the past, and so we're probably going to be on three, three thousand domains or so, so but that's just, that's just kind of a one time play for us. We're not probably gonna Buy more once we sell those. If we, if we, if when we sell more interested in that kind of the infrastructure side of things. But yeah, really looking to just more than anything meet everybody that we hang out with all the time and Kind of just Meet some more people. I love it when we can meet someone in I R L, it'sa whole nother level. It's a whole nother level to be honest with you, as you can attest and and some of us have gotten together a few times and with the Maxi community and whatnot. So, yeah, really looking forward to it.
Speaker 2:I'm actually about I'm less than an hour from there now Drive, and I'm just I'm just I was about to say I believe you're headed up to today did you say salt?
Speaker 5:mining. Yeah, yeah, that was that just you know. I got to be honest with you after twenty five years in the especially on the product side, I mean G. So we know we shipped a few billion dollars worth of drop, shipped a few billion dollars worth of product. So, man, you know, november, december, was Crazy time.
Speaker 5:So when we, when we exited, those people were like I'm going to buy a new product and I'm going to sell mine and in a perfect world that you know, we had Few billion dollars worth of salt there, but unfortunately that there's more money in the trucking than in the salt. You know there's only so much. The trucking, you know, is a lot more profitable than the salt and you can only there's only so far you can you can buy a lot more money in the salt trucking company that did all our trucking and it was actually made more sense for them, but it was just kind of a different. It was. It was fun.
Speaker 5:You know different out there you know when I made a bunch of videos are probably somewhere on my Twitter like back when Bitcoin was thirty five hundred dollars. Here we're buying, you know, eight hundred thousand dollars excavators and seven hundred fifty thousand dollars excavators and stuff and I'm I tried to talk my partners. I'm like let's scale this down a little. Let's just put it all in Bitcoin. Course we got out, voted, but a man, that would have been profitable had we done that, we still did, okay. But yeah, I was just a diversion, just to do something completely different and it was kind of fun, but yeah, just just to do something you've never done before. You know, it's just a lot of fun. You know you're just a lot of fun adventures and Having some fun and the hundred thirty degrees out there, just out the death valley.
Speaker 2:So you didn't want to get too far away from your water bottles when you're out there in the summer. Yeah, I was about to say did so. Definitely a lot to learn from you. You you certainly had a lot of successes I was asking about the salt, especially California, and the water that you had to be able to get in the water and mine and stuff like that. So be fun to have that conversation as well and definitely pick your break-.
Speaker 2:Yeah, super excited to see you and meet you out there as well for those reasons and for more as you said you know, I think the last time we talk that is what we talked about the group that you have that is invested In a lot of grail and I said that I'm going to be extending to everyone. There are certainly people that I'm going to be head hunting to make sure that they are aware of you know the fact that I want to do an AMA for them and you are one of those people.
Speaker 5:so you know, hopefully, you take me up on that absolutely, yeah, this, this, the none, that's probably like like, like the title says, there's going to be some networking here that could yeah, some some big stuff. That's going to be the beginning of something big, and I'm pretty excited about it. I think it's it's really going to be-. Yeah, I'm really pumped. I've been. You know, I used to on the product side, I used to hit about twenty product shows a year. So I'm not that excited about going to Conventions and expos, but this is really fun, really new and really looking forward to it. So, yeah, I'm there, I'll be there in an hour. I'm leaving there. I'm going to be there, I'm going to be there. My wife unfortunately didn't wind up making it, but I'll be there looking forward to get together. I know we're doing some stuff at the Max season and I'm a big Vegas guy. Anyway, I I've been there a couple thousand times, so if you have any questions you haven't been there, hit me up all-?
Speaker 2:steering the right direction. Yes, sir, have a safe trip, enjoy the early morning. I'm sure you're going to be a lot of fun a lot of network, a lot of deals made there so, yeah, enjoy yourself, look forward to see when I get out there and absolutely why. I'm going to do my part to document this the best way possible-. I think I've told people before like this is kind of inspired by something I watched the things about a year and a half two years ago that was the same kind of thing on a big point conference. It was going recapping the first time that I was at the Max season and it was kind of like where are they Now from there? And yeah a lot of big deals were made at that conference. Most of the people that he had interviewed In that particular video our household names today like Charlie shrimp and like what do you call the Demir's? What's her?
Speaker 5:name. Well, no, no, no yeah no.
Speaker 2:So yeah I see this conference having that exact name type of foundation for what is to come. Again, like we got people like you know, matt and building got you on the page who else is coming? There's so many people that are coming I can't even name it off the top of my head. I'm actually look on the website so I can. We've got mommy coming Aaron from from name based. We're looking forward to seeing him again free name team is going to be out there.
Speaker 2:Paul, who I've had the pleasure of being on a panel with but never having met in person. This great opportunity to be which, again, you know these are serious builders, developers, grinders, investors In this space so yeah, for if you guys have been following these tech talks at all you know this is this is a culmination of you know, one good, solid year being in the spaces, being able to come to a conference like this and put it all together and set the pace for the year that comes after so yeah kryptonite to well, sounds like I'm going to miss a good conference I'll definitely try to hit it up next year.
Speaker 6:For sure it sounds like so.
Speaker 6:But yeah thanks for having me on just to kind of give you a quick intro about myself and the chief experience officer, the CXO For a layer one called layer one X we're a new blockchain that just recently launched we launched our Genesis block chain, and one of our probably our biggest claim to fame that makes us really different is that we can do interoperability across chains E M and non E M natively without the use of a bridge, and that technology that we've developed in our blockchain, which has been developed gosh, over the last two and a half three years we've been working on this with a the same identity and for us, we're we're kind of compiling it all into user names and right now we're we're running our NFTSell or you can pick up your, your username, which will be basically your online web three branded web domain.
Speaker 6:It could be your username, it could be a lot of different things and we're really excited to be able to share it with you guys and so the three website could look like for an individual, mainly so that the individuals that are interacting with it they can basically take control of their data and and allow what they want to share, when they want to share it and who they want to share it with-.
Speaker 2:Likewise, they'll be able to monetize it, taking control back from the big companies, and so we're kind of excited to see what we can do to the next, next generation, the next evolution of web three experience and what it's meant to be yeah and excited to learn more about your project I know we've been talking to the M's and definitely gonna lock down an AMA To dig deeper into it for those of you who have attended the meeting of our AMAs we do a lot of our AMAs with builders who are building actual tech in the space, and it's the highlight of the day.
Speaker 2:I know Chris likes to say deeper than names but it's also deeper than names as far as the meaning, bigger than words as far as just the tech the words are just the start of it.
Speaker 2:Right, they're going to the use, the value Is going to come from, inevitably, what they're connected to the power that they give you to manage your assets and your experiences in web three enabling people to interact With blockchain developers and they're building the way that they haven't been able to do so before and then, most importantly, you know to own everything that they're doing in it.
Speaker 2:So definitely love the highlight builders, her brain, that type of utility into the space these are builders. Hopefully also that those of you who are in the naming space especially those who Are developing your own name spaces IE, the U, d is in the E? N, essence and all that to find other protocols to connect with the integrate technology, to start getting more names on games star, get more names on Dex's star, get more names everywhere that we possibly can and then start creating you I to make it easier for regular people to get in and experience it with both that easy to remember name and that cool tech that was built to utilize it so, yeah, looking forward to hear more about what you guys are building Tech wise and yeah, hey, I heard who was there yeah, perfect, go ahead, introduce yourself.
Speaker 8:Sorry, what was that I just just wanted to find out how I could find out more about the the interoperable layer.
Speaker 5:One man, I got smarter just saying those two words Layers zero, layers zero. Their page, yeah, layer zero, we're close.
Speaker 8:Look at Ron, you're just gonna go. I'm just gonna look at him, he's just gonna go. I already know what you're gonna say. You know, I mean so I love yeah but, anyway.
Speaker 6:Crypto. I'll check it out. Thanks a lot. Yeah, I'll I'll throw a link in the in the chat or in the comments section down here if you guys are interested in learning more about it. Happy to answer any questions that you guys may have-. You know we are.
Speaker 6:We are not In a blockchain and we are not in a blockchain with us being a blockchain art. Our goal is not to compete with the other chains. Are goal is to unite and help people expand and be able to tap into other other areas. Right, and so that's what I feel like makes our username concept of the digital identity and data management that we want to do so powerful because we are able. So we're pretty excited about that as well. Plus, we're reinventing the way that people interact with, like you guys said, the content that you put out there on social media, your websites, everything. Imagine bringing all of that into one user experience that you can provide for your followers or your community, and that's really what we're trying to accomplish here is a boundary list type of experience to experience the internet the way that the user wants to experience it, not the traditional form of how they've been kind of directed to over the Web 2 experience. So, yeah, definitely excited to converse a little bit more with anybody who's interested in learning more about it.
Speaker 2:Well, that's what we're trying to build too, and, to be honest, every single time I hear another person say that, it makes me more and more bullish and more and more convinced that we are all headed in the right direction, because we all want the same thing and we're all building the same thing. Eventually, that thing is going to come. So, yeah, like I said, we'll do another deep dive, another AMA, to learn more about you. I'm going to continue to bring more great people into the space and record content for people to learn about all aspects of the space, both on how to acquire your name and how to use your name. I look forward to making more of those connections, also out here at the demeanor expo, looking forward to seeing some people I've never seen before, hearing some names I may have never heard before, so I can bring some new content there as well. Back to the space. And then, of course, I've got my list of people I definitely have to see and shake hands with and show my respect for everything that they've done for the space so far.
Speaker 2:Yeah, before we start getting close to closing, like I said, I'm headed out tomorrow. I've got to run a couple of errands right now, wanted to touch base back up with the panel, especially give Chris a chance to leave us with a couple of words. Julie, if you want to leave us with a couple of words as well, that would be great. And then also King and Uncle Nate. But yeah, I think I've said it like 100 times Just excited about leaving tomorrow. Maybe it's just because I want to get out of the house, maybe I'm tired of just boring my wife to death to the main talk and want to actually get a response back for somebody who knows what I'm talking about. And for whatever reason, I'm definitely just excited to get out and get on that plane. So if you can't sense that excitement yet, you'll definitely see it when you see me in person. But yeah, go for it. Neighbor tips.
Speaker 3:Yeah, so this has been an excellent one, I mean, as usual. I didn't expect anything less. I just want to reiterate a few key points. I know a lot of people that are in this space are listening and you might not be able to make it out, and I want you to remember that this is a two-fold situation. This is part one the group of individuals that are going to be attending this conference. It's going to be a very concentrated group. However, there's another element to it, and I think that the virtual conference is going to be even better as a result of this in-person conference, and that's because everything has to start with some type of foundation and structure, and you all can trust that the individuals who will be in attendance.
Speaker 3:I can't account for everyone, but I have a hunch that the majority of the individuals that will be in attendance are the folks who have the best interests of the space at heart. So I'm looking forward to those exchanges. Paige and Julie, I look forward to meeting you all. I even took the step to initiate some support, so if you go to the comments section, you will see that we registered women'swearcfd. This is not a paid endorsement. It's just when you see something beautiful happening. You have a responsibility to support it. So anyone who's in a position to do so, make sure that you go and support them, I heart. I want to go ahead and commend you for making it a point to be a media person, because media is not easy and sitting down with everyone.
Speaker 3:Once you say it, I'm going to have a booth, I'm going to have the gimbal, I have a list of people to reach out. It's like listen. If you catch them, give the man some water, give them some hugs and ask him is he all right? Because he's going to be moving and I'm looking forward to meeting everyone Ron, paige King, everyone that is going to be in attendance and being on the panel. It's going to be a tone down for me Because, again, I'm coming from New York City. Right, manhattan is very, very active. So this is going to be good to be able to come in and be able to change the pace for a little bit, meet some individuals who, like mine, shake some hands, break up some misconceptions about some things and learn and grow together and hopefully, the future is bright after this. So I thank you all for attending. Thank you, I Heart. Thank you everyone who's been participating. You all have a great day.
Speaker 2:Yes, sir, yes sir, Julie got me where she leave us with.
Speaker 10:I just want to say I've never heard someone talk about Vegas as a tone down, but I'm super excited. I'm hoping for the opposite. I'm hoping for a super hyper, just productive weekend. I'm super thankful for you guys letting me come and talk on here. It's been awesome. Every time I come into a space I'm like, oh well, your dad is awesome. And I'm like, oh, my goodness, I know it's so awesome to hear people talk so great about my dad. I am so excited to actually meet you guys in person and I've been on quite a few of these spaces and I've seen a lot of gorgeous profile pictures. But I'm really excited to just shake hands, make connections, make deals. I really appreciate the support.
Speaker 10:Neighbor tips over there that is so amazing. Women's wear that's a great name to me. Might be a little biased on that one, but I think it's an awesome name. And I think at Heart, domains you said your wife is probably like I'm tired of hearing about it in domains, but you could try and bring her over. We've got my grandmother and my mom trying to enter domain. So do what you like there. And yeah, I'm super excited to meet you. I'm going to go start packing now, because I haven't even started. So with you, love.
Speaker 2:Definitely Safe trip to you and Paige as well. Looking forward to seeing you guys. And, yeah, like I said, I bore my family to death, but they are definitely on the domain train. And yeah, my mother is actually kind of I started this journey with before she left. And yeah, everything I do now is kind of because I heard Own her for original domains that she got from Unstoppable. So definitely understand the power of what these can do. Not only it's different, right, when you're playing in the future with your family, it's not even speculating, right, you're dreaming and you're building with your family. You're explaining that value to your family and when they get it, they can build with you. Like I said again, dad goals, right. So, yeah, looking forward to seeing you guys. Hopefully, yeah, hopefully, everything turns out perfect. Go for it, chris.
Speaker 3:No, I was just saying why we're on the subject of family. Everyone, make sure that you head over to the I Heart Domains website and read the article. This title Domaining for Family in the Future, right, that's, I mean, perfect, perfect time to plug it. So go check that out and just remember that we're doing it for the future, right, we're going to get a benefit, we're a part of it, but we're doing it for that next generation.
Speaker 2:Yeah, absolutely. Just a reminder too, I'm going to be posting the fourth and last article from the Heartbeat series a little bit later today, so hopefully you guys check that out. I've been posting the past couple days each one individually, so we're going to be on the fourth one of that. So, yeah, very good reads. Again, as Chris said, they're going to be on our website. Extremely thankful to everyone who attended our space. Again, looking forward to meeting you guys in person, the ones that are going to be in Vegas. For anyone who needs to listen back to the space, you can do so here on Twitter. You can do so on our content calendar at link3.to forward slash defiwallet, or on our website at iHeartDemainz and via podcast on Apple, spotify and any of the major podcast players.
Speaker 2:Again, oh yeah, king, yeah, we want some final words for our closer space. If you want to, king and Uncle Nate, ok, cool. Well, yeah, let me go ahead and get to my errands so I can get on this plane and go get my gamble on and my domain on in Vegas Again. Thank you guys for attending another. Ok. Thank you. Yeah.
Speaker 7:No, thank you, I'm super psyched. I mean, I've got a lot going on and I might not make it physically and if I can make it I may even bring some blockchain connected fashion apparel with me if I can manage to swing it. So that's kind of the project that I'm working on right now. As a matter of fact, I've just got some software so I can make really cool embroidery patches and they'll be blockchain connected. So hopefully I'll be able to make it out to Vegas.
Speaker 7:Certainly, you've heard me talk about E&S connected kind of objects, so that's what I'm hoping to be able to demonstrate. But yeah, if not, though the online component, I'm a big proponent of those aspects of events and being able to organize a community, a virtual community, in real time around events as they're happening extemporaneously on the ground at a conference. So, either way, I am super psyched for the event and, yeah, thanks for having me up and be careful out there today getting your things done there. I know you're excited, so don't cut any corners, don't run any red lights. You've got plenty of time, man.
Speaker 2:I'll definitely be safe. And just to put this out here again before I close if any of you guys are on that fashion stuff, please feel free to reach out to me Not to continually plug stuff, but I did. I think I tweet earlier today that we launched our little merch and our merch is through Printify. It's nothing big, but at some point, depending on the kind of response that I get from it, I'll take it to another level. Likewise, if anybody wants to partner with their idea in the fashion space, whether it's couture, whether it's ready to wear a streetwear, whatever it is, if it's blockchain related name, it related whatever. If you want to have those conversations with me, I want to have it with you. If you meet me in person and we talk, I'll show you what I can do to help you and kind of my expertise in that space and what I've done with it.
Speaker 2:But, yeah, with that being said, about to get on these errands, I look forward to seeing you guys again tomorrow, the ones that will be out there. For everyone else, I think I'm going to do another space, maybe Friday or Saturday, as a recap space for the expo. So, yeah, tune in then, be posting little videos and stuff here on Twitter that I record, little stuff that you would post on TikTok, whatever, throughout the entire time I'm out there, so you'll see some fun stuff between now and then as well. But, yeah, thank all of you guys for being here Again. Another I Heart Demand's TikTok. And until Friday or Saturday, you guys be safe, see you out in Vegas.
