Speaker 2: 2:28

I think we are just waiting for Kings of the Nerdles to hop into the space. I don't know where Hadaif and Flex are at the current moment, but as soon as they hop into space, we'll invite them up to start the AMA space. Invite them up to start the AMA and, yeah, pinned up to the top of the space, some of the details about the upcoming Neurals Mint for those of you who aren't already aware. But, yeah, look forward to starting that conversation with them as soon as they hop in. So, if you don't mind, we'll probably talk about something else until then, or there might be some awkward silence. And yeah, as you guys are coming to the space, please do me a super solid like, retweet, share it out. And yeah, we should get started on that portion soon. But yeah, how are you doing, jp? Thank you for joining.

Speaker 3: 3:17

I'm doing good, brother. I'm glad to be here, excited to learn more about WebHash and how their developer tools are for integrating?

Speaker 2: 3:32

Yeah, there's. You know you and I have talked about you know the hash network and you know from, I guess, from my understanding of it we've talked about it several times and you know what type of benefit that I think it provides to people in your specific field. So, yeah, I'm excited about getting your input and kind of hearing about the network straight from Hedayat. You haven't had the chance to connect with Hedayat yet either. I know you met Flexster IRL but yeah, hedayat is a creator, lead, dev, all that good stuff behind the platform. So good to also hear from him as well and answer any questions you have. And I'm going to actually mute myself for a second and message both Flexster and Hadayat and see if we can get them in here.

Speaker 2: 4:20

I know that there's a couple other spaces happening at the same time. We overlapped with a bunch of important news, but it is what it is. Show those on. Thank you, yeah, sorry about the late. We were just on a spaces to like 40, 45 minutes ago.

Speaker 2: 5:27

Add to the conversation that hopefully we get to have, or talk about some of the most recent things that have happened in the space, ie, you know the big news of ENS and Google, which for some, you know, it's a little confusing that it's news at all, because you know the integration. I think parts of it, or maybe there was some functionality that existed since earlier this year, but I think this is the announcement of the major rollout. I'm not sure. But yeah, if anybody wants to come talk about any of that kind of stuff while we're again still waiting and I do apologize for the inconvenience, you know, usually it doesn't happen but yeah, if anybody wants to come up and speak JP, if you have anything that you want to talk about, anything that's going on in your wheelhouse, if you want to kind of introduce what you do to get anybody familiar with you as well, here's a good time to do so. Thank you, can you hear me?

Speaker 3: 7:07

GM, GM. Yes, I can hear you. Hey how are you?

Speaker 2: 7:12

I'm doing pretty good. I'm glad you were able to make it up. I was about to say we were just on the space a couple of moments ago. I'm like there's no way it could have disappeared that quick.

Speaker 3: 7:29

So see, somehow I visited your profile, then I joined the space, so that is the best way to find the spaces. So I have retweeted the spaces and those things. But I was in a hurry searching for the spaces link and all the stuff. Somehow I missed it.

Speaker 2: 7:45

All good, all good. Better late than never. Hope everybody is ready for a fun AMA. I know you and I have had several AMAs in the past, kind of during the progression of what has now evolved into what it is, so definitely excited to have another conversation with you and talk about this New Mint, which is, yeah, super cute. If you guys haven't seen the turtles slash nurdles all over Twitter already, you're about to get a really good deep dive into exactly what they are. You can actually check out my personal PFP in the crowd under WinAirdrop with the custom iHeartDomains hat and iHeartDomains hoodie.

Speaker 2: 8:26

But, yeah, without further ado, I'm going to go ahead and introduce the AMA and we can go ahead and get started. I do, as always, want to thank everybody who takes the time out of their day to come to these live. I do want to welcome you to iHeartDomains and another Tech Talk AMA. We do these AMAs to deep dive with builders, entrepreneurs, visionaries, protocols and more in the Web3, tech, digital identity and on-chain domain name space. We are your number one resource for unbiased Web3 and blockchain domain educational content, with over 100 Tech Talk episodes and AMAs out there and YouTube videos produced and archived over the past two years. We just had our two-year anniversary. What was it last month? You can search our entire podcast archive for prior recordings and an easy-to-read blog overview of each episode right on our website at iHeartDeventscom. You can also find any of these podcast episodes on every major podcast player, including Apple, spotify, iheartradio all that good stuff and you can get to that pretty easy at techtalkhost.

Speaker 2: 9:34

Once again, if you haven't already done so, please look down to your bottom right, see that little purple bubble or button. If you'd please like to retweet the space and if you have any questions directly for Hedayah through the WebHash team, feel free to request to speak a role. Also, last but not least, with these AMAs, I do encourage everyone that's interested or who needs more information to join the community directly. As always, do your own research and remember our AMAs are not financial advice. And, yeah, without further ado, I am excited to get into this AMA. As you guys can see at the top, we are going to be talking with WebHash, hedayat and the Nerdles NFT project. It is going to be minting this Friday, october the 11th, so I hope it is on your calendars. Implementing this Friday, october the 11th. So I hope it is on your calendars. I hope you guys have your whitelist spots ready. Um, but yeah, I want to say first of all thank you and welcome to the diet. How you doing today, sir.

Speaker 3: 10:34

I'm doing great uh, marcus, uh, and then and I'm busy from last 15 days, uh, working on the art, speaking with the artist, I mean, so I had to involved uh, doing some changes in the art and all the stuff. So I became an artist recently, so, yeah, it's going great. Uh, community is building uh, webhash gaining users and the good news we crossed 4 000 users in webhash and good news we crossed 4,000 users in WebAshe.

Speaker 2: 11:07

Hey, congratulations, that is a very big achievement. And yeah, I know to like some scale not obviously to the scale that you guys are launching, but to some scale like the hectic stuff that comes, you know, leading up to launch of something and having to jump in and do all the parts. So, yeah, you got some sleepless nights ahead of you until this thing gets minted out. And yeah, I want to go ahead and and jump into this again. You know you and I have had in in Flexster as well and shout out to him he's out at Salt Lake city right now for permissionless, safe travels to him out there networking. But we've had several conversations and kind of on my bullishness and you know, I'm hoping everybody sees what I see, but in case they don't, hopefully this AMA will get them up to speed. So, with that being said, you know, decentralized data storage and this is where you know, kind of I see a lot of this value here. But in my honest opinion, it's one of the key use cases of blockchain and I'm glad JP's up here on stage with me because we've actually had conversations with real people in the tech space. That are some large companies and by far it's the easiest way I've used to make this make sense to them. You know we're trying to get them especially.

Speaker 2: 12:21

These are people that understand it and in this particular case, you know this is an entity that deals with data storage. It just isn't decentralized, but they obviously understand the importance of security and ownership and even the uptime of. You know essentially what is your online real estate or your Web site. You know, as you said, you know, 4000 users in 4,000 websites. In over the past year, webhash has as a proof of concept for what has now evolved into the Hash Network and the Nerdles NFT. So again today I'm honored to once again have on Hedayat from WebHash, hash Network and Nerdles to share the details behind the upcoming event, again Friday the 11th, and the Nerdles utility and break down how each of these platforms will work and grow together. So, yeah, for anyone who isn't already aware of you or who doesn't already know who you are, adyat, can you please do the honor of giving us a brief introduction?

Speaker 3: 13:40

Yes, marcus. So we started as one w3 in 2023. Then, uh, by end of 2023, we uh we rebranded as webhash because a lot of community members were complaining it's difficult to remember three word domain and all those stuff, so I have to think like a domain. Then we bought the webhashcom domain in the premium market, uh, paying premium for the domain. Now it is webhash and we have been recognized by ENS, dao and the ENS team and got help from multiple DAOs funded by DAOs, and we grow from zero to 4,000 in two years. Yeah, web3 users. Okay, so now we have web to integrations also in platform, where a regular user can come with web to social Logins and start building and publishing the websites to decentralize storages. So, as you rightly said, decentralized storage is is bigger use case than any other use cases for a non-tech user.

Speaker 3: 14:49

Okay, I'm speaking about a user who uses internet. He he don't know about any other technologies for him. Maybe his business needs a website, maybe his photos need to be stored somewhere where, where he wants those photos to be preserved for life and the next generations can come and access those history memories which decentralized technology promises to deliver. Those kind of impossible things in web2 world, impossible things in web to web to work, where, if you don't pay bill of your hosting space or your website, it will be getting disappeared After some time. Okay, maybe, if you don't pay a bill after 15 or 20 days, they will get an email and and your website will get wiped out from the hosting providers service. So that is where I was thinking why can't we build a solution where it makes possible to store your memories or your business onto the internet permanently?

Speaker 3: 15:59

I am doing this for a very long time. I am helping businesses to build websites for a very long time. I'm I'm helping businesses to build websites, uh, from very long time. I built multiple uh businesses from 2006. Uh, where there is no memory available in the internet of those businesses which I have built for the years because I lost interest in that. We were not able to monetize. We shut down the products.

Speaker 3: 16:20

If, if this technology was there 10 years back today, I can probably show that I have built something called BackupMobilecom. When iCloud was not there, when Google Backups was not there for mobiles, I have built a product which helped users to store their contacts in cloud and migrate those contacts to different mobiles, which has minimal technology, like JVM based mobiles or CIMDIAN mobiles. Today I am not able to show that because we stopped paying bills for those servers. We thought this business is not viable when iCloud came into existence and Google started giving free storages to the Android mobile users, so these kind of problems can be solved through decentralized technologies. So that is where we thought that we should build something which will help users to build their decentralized identities or build their websites business website, our personal websites using these technologies. And ENS was the biggest use case for these kind of things.

Speaker 3: 17:24

When, when we are trying to build, I had a dotted name. I don't know how to build a website for dotted name. That is. That is where this idea started from, so I took some time for me to understand how to host a website on IPFS and connect it to ENS name.

Speaker 3: 17:39

That is where we thought okay, if this is technically, this was tough that is the reason you don't have a lot of users building websites on ens names. That time when I generated the stats, there was over 2.5 million ens names but only 25 000 names had ipfs. Content has added to it because the non-tech users who are using ENS names. They don't understand this technology. It is tough to understand IPFS. It is tough to understand what is IPFS content, hash. So that is where we built a product which is no code, where user doesn't have to understand what is IPFS. He just have to click some buttons, then pay the gas fees and his decentralized identity goes live on apfs connecting with his ens name.

Speaker 3: 18:28

Then we built multiple things. Now, uh, even dns domains can start connecting their decentralized website to dot com or dot xyz using our platform, uh, via 3dns, tokenized dns domains, and we are building modules where a regular domain which is there in GoDaddy or anywhere in DNS domains providers platforms like Namecheap. They should be able to build a decentralized website, decentralized permanent website, and connect it to their DNS domains. This is the entire journey of Hash. And coming to Nurdles, I guess you have seen the utility which is added to the Nurdles and thanks to you for the suggestion which has been added under the shell of Nurdles. As Flexter said, under the shell of Nurdles.

Speaker 2: 19:17

I can't wait to say that out loud. I swear I chuckle every time you guys say under the shell, it gets me. Every time you guys say under the shell, it gets me. And I was also going to say, like, you guys really have like really stair-stepped. For those of us who have like kind of really followed the journey and had participating and building with these websites and watching what you guys have evolved into, you really have stair-stepped us into and I hope I'm using the right term, but into again, like I said, something that has an enormous opportunity. It really is super technical and vast, the amount of opportunity that decentralized storage has to offer. But you've made it easy enough for people who don't know anything about tech to participate in our way.

Speaker 2: 20:03

And I'm kind of going to start, we're going to get into kind of what some of that means. I'm glad we already painted that picture for the scope of what WebHash and Hash Network you know can be. But now, like back on track of keeping it simple. That's literally what you've also done with the introduction of this new NFT the Nerdles, right? So I want to talk about Nerdles and I want to start with some of the basics. So let's start with the easy stuff, so that people can kind of write this stuff down on the calendar. Again, I've mentioned like 50 times that the Mint will be this Friday, the 11th, but we're going to say it again. But yeah, tell us about the mint how much the mint is going to be, what the supply is going to be, and then who can mint. And also, if you want to drop some alpha on the traits, you can do so. And then after this, we'll dig into some of the specific utility that the NERDLs will provide yes, see white list mint.

Speaker 3: 21:05

It is 0.05 ETH and the public mint will be 0.069 ETH. White list mint is from October 11th, 12.01 AM EST and and the public mint will be on 14th October 12.01 AM. It will start. The public mint will start. And uh, who got whitelisted? Uh, the communities with which we worked from where I work today you may have seen the photo. That is the club from where I'm working from last one year three club called zo house. They recently started in san francisco too. Uh, where uh web3 builders are. Anybody related to web3 can become member of the club and utilize the facilities available in this club. So so, those founder members and and uh, some other projects which requested us to uh like busy joints, they, they were being whitelisted. So, like that, we got more than uh they were being whitelisted. So like that, we got more than. I think more than 60,000 wallets has been whitelisted for whitelist mint. Then, coming back to the collection, it is 10k collection. We are expecting a 6k mint out and remaining will be there to onboard the future users onto the platform because it has a utility.

Speaker 3: 22:45

We can come back to the utility when you ask me what is the utility? Okay, so this is. This is the details of nerdles, the history of nerdles. If you see the whitelist pass which you got into your wallet actually that that was supposed to be the genesis pass of webhash if you see the whitelist pass, it says web hash Genesis pass. That was supposed to be the whitelist pass. But then we started thinking why to give a boring card to the user? Why can't we give a PFP so that they can use as an identity, not only a access card kind of thing, where you will use only for the utility. We will never flex that ID card to anyone. It will be there lying in the open sea or in your wallet, so which you you will not showcase.

Speaker 3: 23:33

So this is not a PFP project. Basically, this is this is a membership project. Okay, a lifetime membership project. So when we are creating in open sea, when it asked us category, we selected membership, not pfp. So a lot of people are asking me why the price is this high. This is a pfp project, bro. Go and check the utility. This is not pfp project. We added a pfp to it so that, so that our community should be proud of holding this NFT. That is the reason we invested into art. We built the art and we came up with a character called Nerdle, and it is that. So this is not a PFP project, this is a utility project, marcus.

Speaker 2: 24:21

Yeah, no, and that makes perfect sense. As Hedayah just said, any of you guys who are on that whitelist, which involves all the communities, that make perfect sense you guys all should in your wallets have the pass, the mint pass, which is some super cool art by itself. But personalization, I mean that's definitely been like an attractive feature of Web3. Even with the Forbes legacy pass, which I mean it's a Forbes pass, everybody who has that pass is proud to own it and gets a lot of utility with it. But even they've defaulted to trying to personalize that pass because people just like to show off your uniqueness. So you guys incorporating a PFP with, quite frankly, some super cool traits and again, if you guys aren't familiar with all the traits that exist or will exist in the collection, there have been plenty of tweets with some teasers. Also, you can go to the website at nerdlesxyz and see some of the trades. Also, you know some of these PFPs here, some custom trades, but yeah, the ability to personalize really makes a person take ownership of it. And then the fact that it is a lifetime membership token means that when you get the one that you want, the one that you like, the one you resonate with, it's supposed to get married to it and write out the utility. And so let's talk about that a little bit, and I'm going to save the biggest utility of the nurdles to me. In my opinion, that would be the part I had a little hand in, but we'll save that for last.

Speaker 2: 25:56

But let's talk about what's under the shell, what some of this utility means. So when we say things like lifetime subscription, you know I've already brought up that WebHash as a platform, as a decentralized, no-code website builder that you right now, if you have an ENS name or a free name or a bnb, can go build upon and build not only a Linktree style website, but you can build all different other types of websites now with different templates and things like that. Uh. So let's talk about how uh the nerdles give uh your lifetime, uh membership to that platform, what that means and, yeah, what what else comes with it. And then we'll talk about the nerdle node farm yeah, so, uh.

Speaker 3: 26:37

So basically, this is a token gated membership uh into webhash, uh, where, whoever holds the nft, they can verify the. Verify the NFT while they log in into the platform. Automatically their subscription will become a premium subscription into the platform. Recently we launched subscription models in the platform where a free user can build one website utilizing 30 MB of IPFS storage. The paid user should pay $8 a month. If he is paying yearly, he will get 25% discount. Then he can build unlimited websites using the platform. Storage will be extra 300 MB he will get as a free package. Once he consumes 300 MB, he should be buying 1 GB storage every time. He can buy more. The minimum storage he will buy is a GB, which will cost around $5 per GB. So that is where we thought, okay, we have community who has rallied behind us. From a year or two, they should get benefited by not paying a monthly subscription or yearly subscription. So buy once and have have a lifetime subscription to the platform where, uh, till you hold the nft, you will get everything free in the platform. Uh, this is, uh, this is the benefits of having a nurdle in your pocket. Having a nurdle in your pocket, you have free entry into the web hash app.

Speaker 3: 28:10

Then there is a governance part. See, we are traveling towards a DAO based entity than a private entity, where decisions will be taken in a decentralized way and uh, and and the company will be traveling towards it. So we are building that today. Uh, the base is being set with noodles. Okay, whoever holds models, uh, they will be eligible of uh decision making votes in the platform. We will start with small, small things. Moving forward, we will build a proper uh dow structure around hash ecosystem. Then the nft holders will get benefited uh, by involving in decision making and and and creating a great direction to the company, uh, direction to the company. So the other benefit which it has is see, hash network is coming. It's not far away. Mostly by mid of November, by friends day, we will be launching testnet of hash network, basically, hash chain testnet will be live by then. Then, for that again, this node license sale will happen where whoever buys the node license they can set up nodes and support the network, validate the network, and all those things will happen. In will start in November with testnet.

Speaker 3: 29:40

So eventually, when the main net happens, we need to do a. So eventually, when the mainnet happens, we need to do a TG token launch where all will be enabling access to the decentralized content to the gateways which has been provided by the community, which can be hosted in their home and all the websites are the contents which is being published to IPFS can be accessed through these nodes and we will make sure the website access is also decentralized. Right now access to the content is centralized uh. Ipfsio is a centralized uh domain control by a centralized entity. So if these domains get, if these gateways get, compromised, there is a security issue. That is the reason we saw this problem is there uh in decentralized uh storage, uh arena, where we wanted to solve this problem by launching hash network.

Speaker 3: 30:45

So hash network is coming soon. So eventually token launch will happen uh, once everything is is in pipeline then. So whoever holds the nft yeah, they are our core community members they will they will be eligible for the airdrop uh when, when we do community airdrop of that hash token. So that is the future. These are the major utilities. Other than that, there are some utilities which will come, which we will announce in future around Nerdles.

Speaker 2: 31:23

And we can move to the interesting part. Marcus, yeah, yeah, yeah, we're going to dig into this too. I'm glad we started on this part. This is the part I was going to transition to, and I started off, you know, wanting people to get a scope of. You know how big the opportunity was for hash network and web hash first, then understand the simplicity of, you know, minting and owning an NFT, a process that we're all pretty familiar with and doesn't take much effort. But now I want to kind of get into, like you said, how this works right and the back end.

Speaker 2: 31:56

The utilities that you mentioned already relate to the way the system or the platform works. Currently, again, webhash is a product that you can use right now. Anyone can, again, if you have an ENS domain free name or a BNB, something you can log in with, or even you can set up an account with the Gmail account. Now you guys have made it easy for anybody to get started. So this is a real working product.

Speaker 2: 32:22

But then, looking towards the future and this future opportunity, I was going to ask about the Nerdle NodeFarm first, but I'm actually going to save that for after we dive into the hash network, and you started talking about it already, but I want to kind of go back through it just so people can understand the scope of again what's being built and how much bigger this is. So let's talk about that. Let's talk about the hash network, the hash token, and exactly how it will scale. From your mouth and not just me speculating. And then also, you know, we can roll this into the neural node farm because, as you mentioned before, you know a big component of the hash network, the main hash network, once it goes live and is in the main net, is going to be, you know, people individually hosting nodes to validate the network. But one of the utilities of the NURTLE is actually going to be to host its own node farm.

Speaker 2: 33:23

So, yeah, again, it's kind of a compound question. I guess at this point let's talk about the Nerdle node farm, what the hash network is, the hash token. But then, more importantly, as my prediction comes true, the hash network begins to scale as large entities or corporations perhaps, maybe start using the hash network to store some of their data. Individuals keep building websites, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. What does this mean for nerdles and the rewards for nerdles? Um, so that people can understand really what they're getting under the shell, so I'll just say it yeah, under the shell.

Speaker 3: 33:59

So see, uh, hash network enables you to prove the content has been published by you. Okay, that is a biggest use case which hash network is going to provide for the decentralized content publishers. So right now, anybody can can take your data and say that I want that data. For example, anybody can go and take the IPFS content, has set up a node and pin the content which is there. He can always say that I want this content. Where is the proof that it is being published by you? The content is created by you, what is the origin of the content, from where it has been published and who is the true owner of that content which is being published to ipfs? Then, uh, what is the? What is the date it has been published? Who is the real owner of the content? So all this data will be stored on chain on the hash network and you can always prove that. For example, take an artist who has published a content to IPFS how he can prove that he is the true owner of that particular art which has been published to IPFS. We are saying the content is permanently stored, but where is the proof that the content is being produced by this particular person. There is a bigger challenge which we are trying to solve with hash network.

Speaker 3: 35:26

Then the other part is content access to the content. As I explained, access to the content is centralized. That I already explained about it. So that is. That is where the chain part comes, where the provenance of the data will be stored on chain and tokenization of the website is possible on chain, where, if someone builds a website, he should be able to tokenize that website and he should be able to trade with the token or raise investment through the token or buy and sell that token. For example, take, you have built a great podcast company. Basically, it's a website. It's not a physical asset. It's a website where your podcast has been published and stored permanently.

Speaker 3: 36:13

Now you got a great business deal or you want to put up for an auction saying that, okay, this is my great podcast website which has hundreds of episodes on it and I want to trade it If someone is interested to buy it out. How do you do that in a traditional world? You need to do a lot of things to do in a traditional world, like you need to find a guy who will be doing deal between you, who will be holding money and he should make sure the transaction happens and he should be reviewing the transaction and the buyer is also not secured, thinking that you have not transferred the entire technology to him, and all those things are very difficult in a traditional world. By tokenizing it, it's an open sea. Go there, the store the price or ask them to bid it. Maybe tomorrow better platforms will come where auction is possible for this kind of platforms or startups, okay. So all these problems we are trying to solve with hash network, where tokenizing of the website is possible and you, you will be able to do a lot of things with the tokenized assets, how you are doing this with NFTs, okay, so that is the thing we are trying to do with hash network.

Speaker 3: 37:38

Then, coming back to the NURDL form, yeah, thanks to you, a big thanks to Marcus, who suggested uh, this will be a super utility to the community. Uh, because you're you're raising investment with nft sales, so why don't we contribute something to the hash network with that investment? And set up in form where the the tokens which is generated through running the data center should will be able to distribute among the nft holders. Uh, this is kind of a passive income, uh, which will be generated through nodal form and distributed among the nft holders of uh nft holders, nft holders, the Nerdle NFT holders. That is what Nerdle Form will do. Nerdle Form will be set up when Mintout happens, because it needs a lot of investment to set up the data center and bring the hardware and set it up and start providing power to the network and generating the incentives, so it can be set up when Mintout happens. The Nurdle Mintout happens. Marcus.

Speaker 2: 38:54

Yeah, exciting stuff Kind of wanted to. I'm going to get into that right now and my inspiration behind that, so that people can kind of get an understanding where that came from, because it makes perfect sense and I'm so glad that you guys were. Again, you guys are very attentive to the community and I'm honored that you listened to my suggestion and implemented it Because, again, it really is a super utility. Going back to understanding, you know the potential for how this can scale and, just as you said and that's another aspect of it as well so you know, I've already kind of made it clear how bullish I am on corporate entities or people who have a need for large data storage, for using this and monetizing the platform that way, which should generate hash token right For miners, because that's essentially what we're doing. But not only that, like you were saying, you know it. There's something we haven't even really gone through this yet, and I'm trying to do that myself. I've hinted on several spaces over the past couple weeks that I'm doing like a personal experiment. Twitter is all already suspended. My new Twitter page for this project but I'll be transparent about it it's called a crypto gaming club and I own every domain related to it. Um, so feel free to try to snipe, but crypto gaming clubcom.

Speaker 2: 40:17

I want to complete, a complete. I want to create a completely decentralized company from start to finish. So I've already incorporated the business. I incorporated it in the in the marshall islands. It is an NFT. It exists as an NFT. It's owned by a wallet. That wallet has then set up a smart wallet. I've set up an ENS for it. I put the ENS in that wallet. This wallet will now own all the assets that I create for it, including, once DNS is able to be used to build decentralized websites my web hash site, which will then in essence become.

Speaker 2: 40:48

I think we're going to make it a gaming guild. That's what I think I've landed on. I think that's going to take like the least amount of developmental effort. Try to build a gaming guild. I'm also going to incorporate some Web3 TLDs from some of those other guys in here, as well as membership NFTs to join one side of the gaming guild or the other. Just a complete proof of concept. Right, and then sell it, like I said, as an NFT, with no strings attached, no red tape, no, none of that. You get the entire system, all the assets, a working, revenue generating business that you can just buy on OpenSea or whatever else exists, and this is one of those things again that the hash network is certainly, you know, I intend to empower for me in this particular project, and that's just one of the things or one of the use cases for it. So, yeah, that's definitely a big thing.

Speaker 3: 41:47

Yeah, marcus. So I want to say that gaming is a bigger industry when you compare it with other industries out there. Building a community is easy and it will become a great community if you, if you, focus on gaming, uh gaming market in the world. So I have seen uh different kind of communities and and companies building products around gaming. Uh, raising investment is also easy when you concentrate on gaming. If it is uh, if it is web 3 related gaming guilds, then then it's great, okay. So, uh, after the market got crashed, things have changed, but but I feel uh future will be different when these games comes out, like uh, in 21 and 2020. A lot of games announced, there is an investment and they're building uh and I'm waiting when they are going to launch these games and how the experience will be. Uh, if, if those games come out and and become successful, uh, the entire crypto market will change uh. I'm waiting for that day. Uh, I hope you you build it fast and we definitely coordinate to make it successful. Yeah, yeah I'm.

Speaker 2: 43:06

I'm building it as an experiment, but I'm definitely hoping that there's some profitability to it. I was inspired to register that long three-word domain name based on that list of keywords. I think that was produced by Cito. Somebody was sharing it around at the top 10 searches that were going on right now on Google or on Cito or GoDaddy or something like that, and crypto and gaming were in there. I was like, hey, Crypto Gaming Club, let's go for it. But yeah, going back to as well, just to kind of give you guys some, or double down on some insight into the value of the NERDOS and where that inspiration came from and how I explained it to Adyeth and Flexner, A couple of years ago I had met some guys IRL at a conference that had a project called what was it?

Speaker 2: 43:58

Meta Ape, Some weird thing. It was Meta something club or whatever. In any event, see, I can't even remember their name. That's, that's bottom line, the whole pointer utility of that platform. These guys supposedly had a background in Bitcoin mining in 100. Well, it wasn't even 100 percent of them. They have the tokenomics messed up, but a portion of the met of this club or minting this NFT would essentially go to purchasing this mining center and it did.

Speaker 2: 44:31

The only reason this project really didn't work out is because at some point they started just adding a bunch of weird collections that diluted what you had to do to qualify to get your tokens in the first place. And that's just because of them, because they were weird. But the overall structure of it I thought was an amazing value adder utility for people who want to get into mining but don't understand it or don't have the bandwidth or don't have like the energy or the grid or even the capital to go get a Bitcoin miner, which at that time was like a lot of money, Like everybody couldn't just go get a Bitcoin miner, which at that time was like a lot of money. Everybody couldn't just go get a Bitcoin miner. Obviously, in this case, getting the smaller nodes to validate, these are a lot more accessible for individuals, but at this point we're talking Bitcoin, so value prop is way different.

Speaker 2: 45:17

But essentially these guys bought some Bitcoin miners. They had this thing that was attached to them that would actually monitor the progress of what is mining and you could log in, token gated using your NFT and you could see like rewards were being generated in real time from this mine and, again, like the utility of owning this unit. Nft was essentially to be a virtual miner, a validator for this Bitcoin mine and you know, assuming that this mine runs forever, it would be a passive income source forever, and assuming Bitcoin continues to grow, et cetera, et cetera, lord knows what the value of these assets at this point Because you can call something an asset if it's generating and I don't want to, I know we're kind of getting into some weird language here with generating revenue and all that kind of stuff but something that's earning a utility token for mining or whatever I mean I would say that that you know places it closer to what you could define as an asset class than just you know a regular PFP or you know a picture, even if it is getting into a token getting community. Know a picture, even if it is getting into a token getting community. So the fact that you guys listen, you know to, to that idea, to that inspiration, and I saw a fit, obviously, here.

Speaker 2: 46:34

You know, when you guys first launched and started talking about this during December, I I was immediately like my eyes were, you know, lit up as soon as you guys started talking about. You know this, this new L3 or L4, whatever you guys call it, you know, with nodes and all that, and immediately saw an opportunity, you know, to earn income. But then you know, as time goes by, you start seeing people ask all these questions about which nodes to get and how to set them up and where to get them, etc. You also start seeing the need to simplify it for some.

Speaker 2: 47:02

So with that being said, and I'm glad you explained the hash network and now getting back to the nurdles, just to clarify, for those who want to take on that technical hurdle, for those who don't have a problem putting, you know, 100 miners inside of their house and participating in the hash network, that way at some point they'll be able to do so traditionally with what's called a node license first. But for those who want to participate in the ecosystem from the jump in essence, you know, investing in one of the first node farms that will exist on the hash network they're taking it as simple as just minting a nurdle. Am I correct?

Speaker 3: 47:38

Yeah, yes, marcus, so that is correct. And yeah, this is a gate pass for everything under the shell, as Flexa says. So there are some gems out there in this collection, like there are 97 NFTs. I just reviewed the collection which is generated generated there are 97 NFTs holding the golden spotted egg. Okay, so these golden spotted eggs will get free node license to run nodes on hash network. They don't have to buy any node license. They can, they can straight away go and set up the node and start contributing to the network. So that is one thing. As you said, this is the first step to enter into the ecosystem, hash ecosystem. This will give them the facility of, without spending anything, they can be part of the hash network node ecosystem. Other than that, have we have done something for the builders in in the collection where builders can be recognized, who has participated in build-a-thon and all those things. So those things will be revealed when mint happens, when the art is revealed and and it's an interesting art, so with interesting traits, as I said and hash networks. So Nurdle form is an interesting idea, where a NFT holder can get, can get compensated for holding the NFT for longer time by generating the hash tokens through the form.

Speaker 3: 49:31

I experienced this myself personally. I was part of initial setup of AR domains, where Av Avi has their naming system called AR. I was an initial member of that community and because of my contribution, they gave me one NFT which was minted for 0.5 ETH at that time. I got it for free because of my contributions to the project. Then over the years it gave me around 30 AR tokens as passive income for holding that NFT. It was interesting and I have not done anything. I was just holding the NFT and I hold it proudly because it's a recognition having that NFT, but it has given some financial benefits. That's a that's great idea to compensate your community and uh rewarding them for holding, uh, your nft for longer time.

Speaker 3: 50:36

that's, that's a great thing to do with the community, uh and uh that that is how, uh, I thought about it when you pitched this idea to me. When you have these great utilities, why can't you have one more utility which will be, in a way, contributing to the hash network? That was a great idea which you pitched to me Initially. When you messaged me, I was not able to understand what is that? What is the node thing you are speaking, because this is an NFT where the nodes are coming into picture. When we went into the call and you explained me this is what I am trying to do, I was like oh, this is a great idea.

Speaker 3: 51:17

It is like the similar NFT which I was holding. This is similar kind of idea where community will get incentivized because of helping the network. Okay, so this is. This is what happens when mint would happen. So we'll be figuring out the right location where we can set up the data center with less investment. I am feeling India will be the best place. Or we'll figure out the place in East Asia or some place where internet is good and power is cheap and setting up the data center is easy. We will be doing this. For that we will be forming a DAO who will be managing these funds, who will take responsibility for executing it legally and distributing the funds through DAO mechanism. And obviously every NFT holder is a DAO member. They can vote for decisions which is being made and all those decisions will be taken collectively with the help of community members.

Speaker 2: 52:29

Yeah, and again, like a lot of value for holding one of these amazing nerdles. Also, you know, as Flexster says, you know, truly a reason to see this as a super long-term investment and that's why I'm also and I'm also glad that they're personalized as well, because it's so much easier to identify something, rock with something, really take on the identity of something if it's providing you value long-term, like you said, with the Arweave energy that you got. We're hoping that, and much love and respect to RWeave, always cool with their team over there. Shout out to Anthony, I'm hoping to blow that out of the water with, like I said, the utility that the NERDLS provides. And yeah, again, for those of you who aren't technically savvy and want to get on board with, you know, essentially becoming a part of the first network of nodes that are going to be participating in the hash network. You know your NURTL is the easiest way.

Speaker 2: 53:31

In Wanting to go back just again to the details, for those who may have been tapping in late, If you want to recover the mint, exactly what mint price is going to be for both whitelists, explain that process. And then also for those who want to get in touch with the community who are building. Who want to build on WebHash? Who, like I said, the current utility of WebHash is already here. If you have an ENS name, a free name or a BMB, you want to build a decentralized link tree. If you're going out to events and networking like our guy Flextor, up a permission list tree. If you're going out to events and networking like our guy Flexster, up a permission list. If you want something easy to share to get people to connect with you, you know how can people get connected and get started doing that now, while they're waiting for the neural myth yeah, so not only decentralized domains.

Speaker 3: 54:22

now users can build for DNS domains also, which is from 3DNS, and we'll be launching a module which I guess I showed you in the demo, how you can connect a DNS domain.

Speaker 2: 54:36

Not to interrupt you but just to clarify that for those who might, because, remember, like I said, I'm kind of waiting on that. So if we use 3dns, which hopefully everyone's already familiar with, if not, I might do another spaces just specifically on the different platforms you can use to tokenize uh, web, two domains, uh. But if you tokenize a domain name, a dot, you can tokenize anything through them. Right now it was just on box, but you can do it calm through them now, right?

Speaker 3: 55:08

yeah, you can tokenize also with 3d nests. Cool, that is a question.

Speaker 2: 55:13

That was a question in a question. Okay, if you use 3d nests today to tokenize a calm today, you can then build a decentralized website on WebHash today.

Speaker 3: 55:26

Yes, you can do that. We have more than 50 websites built with WebHash on tokenized DNS domains.

Speaker 2: 55:35

Good to know. Sorry for interrupting you with that question, but that's an important one. Go for it Continue.

Speaker 3: 55:44

Okay, I missed the question. We were speaking about DNS and web 3 domains.

Speaker 3: 55:51

Yes yeah, minting price. So the minting price is 0.05 ETH in whitelist. Most of the community members should have been whitelisted and if someone wants to get whitelisted, we'll be releasing a uh webcast frame forecaster frame where they can uh get whitelisted with single click uh from forecaster. That is what we are going to release in in few hours where whoever, who, whoever wants to get whitelisted, they can uh mint the nft basically click a button to get whitelisted and they will be. They'll be getting automatically whitelisted from Falkaster. So 0.05 is the whitelist mint and 0.069 is the public mint. And the timings are whitelist mint is starting on October 11th early morning, like 12 o'clock, and private mint public mint will happen on October 14th. So this is how and the mint will happen on OpenSea.

Speaker 3: 56:52

Why we are doing on OpenSea? Because there are a lot of factors, like we can enable minting through credit card. We want Web2 users also to come and utilize the opportunity. That is the reason we went with OpenSea. Where mint can happen on OpenSea, you can see the minting happening on OpenSea Instead of happening on a private website. We thought OpenSea will give you a good credibility for the minting process which is going to happen.

Speaker 2: 57:25

Well, yeah, that's good to know. So, yeah, minting will be, I guess, directly on openc on there, um, yeah, that'll be super solid. You guys pretty good marketing that way. Uh, being on openc, um, easy discoverability, uh, looking forward to that. Um. And yeah, again, for for anybody who uh, currently, as you're waiting on the Reynolds Mint, if you do have some domains that you want to build on, want to explore all the templates, want to explore all the different plugins and things that you can use to build out the perfect no-code, decentralized website, you guys can already, right now, go to webhashcom. Go to webhashcom. So, yeah, that being said, I want to thank you for coming on and again giving us a deep dive into Nerdles. We're coming up real quick on that mint date, so I hope everybody has their funds ready.

Speaker 2: 58:19

Again, you're, quote-unquote, investing into something bigger than just a PFP. Again, you're investing into an ecosystem that has a whole lot of room to grow, a lot of value. As you guys can tell, I'm pretty biased. In particular, you know, a friend of mine, flex, has been a friend of mine. These guys are supportive of everyone in the space and you know, hadaif has been building like crazy, and this is what this is about for me. You know there's a lot of ways that people will gain value from the space. You know a lot of people ways that people will gain wealth from this space, but true wealth is what you're able to build and kind of contribute to the world as a whole, and something you get to look back on and say you know I built that, I added this to this. You know I created value that other people you know can replicate and benefit from. You know I created value that other people you know could replicate and benefit from. You know that's value to me and I love to see builders build cool stuff that you know kind of brings full circle this value.

Speaker 2: 59:13

Web3. Because it makes it easier for me to explain this, to bring the normies in which, at the end of the day, really should be the goal of all of us. Before I exit out, I know you've been listening to the entire AMA, jp and again, webhash and Hash Network has a lot of value to add to what you do and what you build. Specifically, if you had anything that you wanted to add on the way out or anything you wanted to ask about it, go for it. Sir, you there. Jp, jp Psychedelic. Well, all right, what were we going to say, adai?

Speaker 3: 1:00:02

Yeah, I think JP's mic is not unmuting, so let us do a space again. Marcus, after after the minting is war we are going to announce bigger things, post mint even okay. Well, a huge module is going to become public for the users post-screen. Please host us again.

Speaker 2: 1:00:29

We will come and discuss about those features, which is going to be launched on WebHash Definitely looking forward to it. Good luck to everybody at Met. The best trade out there, by the way, is the Black Mirror with the iHeart Domains hat, but if you aren't able to get that nurdle, look out for the ones with the golden eggs, because you got a surprise in there. Thank you again, hedayat, for coming up and thank you everybody for listening. Live with me Again.

Speaker 2: 1:00:58

If you do want to listen back to this space, you'll be able to do so shortly here on X and also via podcast on every major podcast player. I should have this up later today, latest first thing in the morning. I'm going to get it up before mint so that all my listeners on YouTube and those communities that I've connected with on Apple Podcasts and all that the listeners outside of this space, outside of this bubble, can maybe hop in and get their mint on too. Go for it, arti, before we close. Hey man, thank you very much for this space, very informative, and I just had one question when is the reveal? Are they going to reveal immediately?

Speaker 1: 1:01:36

as you mentioned.

Speaker 3: 1:01:38

Ok so this is a bigger question, arti, ok. So still, we are thinking that he will be on the public mint once the private mint is over. We, we are thinking about this. So once the public mint is over, we will will start for the for the private mint guys. That will be a surprise for them. So reveal on public meet.

Speaker 2: 1:02:09

I'm going to throw in another community suggestion to just mess up your development time, but it would be super cool if, like, the placeholder image was like a turtle egg or something like that. But anyway, yeah, let me stop. Thank you guys for coming to our tech Talk. Ama again, blessed to have you guys here and, you know, supporting me for these past couple of years, and look forward to bringing you some more Builder Alpha for years to come. So thank you again, hedayat, see y'all on Friday the 11th for the Nerdles Mint. You'll mint this thing out. Well then, yeah, let's continue to build. You guys, have a great rest of the week and see you tomorrow.

Speaker 3: 1:02:55

Thank you. Thank you, mankas, see you soon. Bye.
