• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Today we're going to dive into the XRP ecosystem and
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: talk with one of the guys over at future Verse.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: We've talked a little bit about them before. You guys
• 0:13

  Speaker 1: a self custody wallet, very slick system out there when
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: it comes to self custody, and one of the things
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: that you should be doing now, especially as we start
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: to go into a bull run here are really in

  Speaker 1: the heat of a bull run, is make sure that
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: your tokens are safe. So if you are on a
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: centralized exchange, maybe you want to start sending some of
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: those over on your own self custody wallet. Just click
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: that little get Tangent button right there on the top right.

  Speaker 1: It comes out through the fifteenth of December, so check
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: it out, get your way going on self custody. As
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: you guys may remember, we did a video with Aaron
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: McDonald back in about six months ago, and it was
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: really kind of getting an update of what was happening
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: within Future Verse, so we thought, hey, let's bring it
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: back in and dive in a little bit deeper. So
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: welcome into the show. Aaron.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: How are you? I'm great? How are you?
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Nice? To see you again?
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: Thanks? Yeah, no, good to see you again.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: A lot happening. Of course, before we get going too
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: deep on this, I just want to remind everybody when
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: you look at Future Verse and again, if you guys
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: want to watch the full video, go back check that out,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: because we really kind of dove into a lot. We'll
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: explain some of that today, but very tied into the
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: XRP ecosystem Ripple as a whole. When you look at
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: the current market for XRP, obviously there's been a big
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: run up on the token side of things. What's your
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: opinion of just how much sentiment has been brewing around
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: this space now?
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, No, it's been really interesting and exciting to watch.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: I mean, obviously we made the decision to work with
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: the Ripple team and build in the XP community when
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: things weren't so fantastic and old GG was having his
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: day out there, and so it's been really fascinating to
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: see how our view of how this would shape out
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: actually did pan out. And we always kind of looked
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: at the community has been very strong and very loyal.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: You know, the the army is definitely a force to
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: be reckoned with. And if you look at it, no doubt,
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: you know, the mass, the massive kind of headwinds that
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: the community was facing, and how well x R he
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: held up even though they had all of those massive
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: head ones. You've just seen it as a loaded spring
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: that once those things disappeared, you know, there would be
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: lots of upside momentum for the community out of that.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: It's a breath of fresh air for sure. One of
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: the things that is really leaning in right now is
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: r l U s D. You look at the potential
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: of a stable coin now getting approved by the New
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: York Regulator. How will that affect you guys in terms
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: of future verse?
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: What with what we've seen is this kind of awesome
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: momentum of community support, and what needs to follow up
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: that awesome momentum of community support is the actual kind
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: of use of that network and the you know the
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: power of the technology itself coming to coming to light
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: and utility and getting our rep stable coin on the
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: network and out in the wild and creating liquidity around
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: that is going to create a whole bunch of momentum
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: around those use cases. It's kind of done that in
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: all of the other previous like examples out there, having
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: good stable coin depth and ecosystem powers the DeFi apps
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: and the other apps on top of it. For us
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: in particular, like if you think about our goal of
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: reaching consumers and and driving every day adoption and things
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: like gaming, having something that is you know, stable and
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: value is a really attractive like proposition from a consumer
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: experience point of view. Pricing things and those currencies makes
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: it easy for them to get the heat around. And
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: so we're really looking forward to integrating it into the
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: Route network and into the developer ecosystem that's building those
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: applications around. Very cool.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: If you look at XRP scan, I was just kind
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: of showing people, but if you go down and look
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: at trust lines, I've got it selected right there and
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: you scan down to the bottom of the page. Yeah,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: so almost twenty thousand trust lines in place, So that's
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: kind of that's pretty significant. If you don't know about
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: trust lines, we've got a whole video on that of
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: explaining it how it works. You know, it's an XRP thing,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: but if you're an XRP you probably fully understand that. Yeah,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: I want to get into a couple other things, and
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: one of course is I was looking at overall this
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: kind of a rundown. What you guys are doing a
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: lot of growth here. Explain to me how you guys
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: use XRP.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: XRPS the gas token on the route network, and so
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: essentially everything that happens on the network is powered by XRP.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: It's obviously on network as a currency as well, so
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: people can kind of transact in it and and use
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: inside of the applications that are built on the network,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: smart contracts, those kinds of things. In this last year,
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: we've seen really good what i'd say, like got off
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: to a really good start over the last twelve months
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: of taking that XRP token and turning it into other
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: kinds of utility for XRP. You know that number there,
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: I think one point three billion dollars worth of value
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: transferred in the first year, and that's a pretty great,
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: great number from our perspective. Also, I think if you
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: look at like fees earned by route network validators, you know,
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: equivalent to one third or most of the fees burned
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: on the whole XRP l ledger itself. And so you
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: can see a good sort of utility contribution building around
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: XRP itself in the broader you know, layer two ecosystems
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: around around XRP, and next year, you know, we rarely
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: want to scale that up, you know, and ten x
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: that and continue to see more and more utility grow
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: around the token and the network.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: I mean, you're going on close to six hundred thousand wallets.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: I mean that were you is this is this where
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: you thought you would be.
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we're roughly tracking in line with our expectations.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: There've been a couple of bigger partners that we thought
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: would land later in this quarter that have pushed out
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: to early next quarter just from a you know, market
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: timing perspective and their internal processes and stuff like that.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: But but apart from if you take those out of
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: the equation, I think the state of where things are
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: is pretty good. This year has really been kind of
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: getting all of those systems at a point where we
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: can feel comfortable to scale them right. The next year
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: is really all about scaling it.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: Let's go over to the Epic Game Store. Of course,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: we've got your game on there. And first of all,
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: I'm kind of curious how many people waitlisted to be
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: able to play this. Have you got any numbers?
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: You actually don't know the latest number. Today we had
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: one hundred thousand on the wait list already, so I
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: need to go and look at what the latest is
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: that have transitioned across to the white list. But the
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: first day response is really strong, and teams starting to
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: build into our partner marketing campaigns around that, so we're
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: expecting to have a really good list of people who
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: are ready to start experience. Opening in the new year
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: and jumping in yesterday was another leap forward in terms
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: of the quality. Team have done a really a really
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: good job on a lighting pass and a bunch of
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: new animations and UI features. This stuff dropping in all
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: the time, so we're really excited to get our first
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: like community champions and some influencers into this in the
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: first kind of let's call it externally public playable version
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: in January and start building up then into like formal
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: early access for probably for our closer community, and then
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: start pushing into you know, the broader ecosystem, gaming ecosystem
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: from there going forward. It's a it's a it's an
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: awesome piece of IP. The team that's building it as
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: an awesome team, and we're looking forward to having people
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: having some fun with it.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, one thing I can do is give you
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: guys credit for future Pass, because this is something when
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: we see onboarding processes we're always very critical, and I
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: would say this is one of the better ones that
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: have been out there. If you guys want to go
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: over to future Verse to search future Paths, you guys
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: can kind of see a little bit of the experience.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: So good job on that. Anything coming down the future
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: for future Paths that maybe would make it even slicker
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: than it is today.
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: We have support for pretty much every major social or
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: gaming platform. Now there's a couple more being added to
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: support the launch of Open But the real exciting things
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: for Pass actually are the platform itself is designed so
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: that other people or other organizations or other teams can
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: create their own past domains and therefore take their brand
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: into their community or their consumers in a more seamless
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: and brand aligned way. And so the thing for us
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: that's really exciting is activating. You know, we've got a
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: half a dozen big brands and communities that are creating
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: their own past journeys now and we'll start to launch
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: those in the new year as well. So that's exciting
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: for us and gives Past it like a greater footprint
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: out there and lots lots more users to onboard into
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: the ecosystem through that.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: One of the things I wanted to I have to
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: call you out on and that is I was looking
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: at this this tweet right here, it was talking about
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: the future Verse ecosystem. We kind of zoom in on
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: that very complicated and I would say, even you know,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: to a certain extent for people that don't really know
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: yet what we're about to see in Web three gaming.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: You know, if you go over and take a look
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: at just future Verse in general, it's it is pretty complicated.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: It doesn't give I think, a complete full guidance to
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: maybe a new person that's moving in. Any plans to
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: change that in the future to make it a little easier. Yeah,
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: I mean come from a really slick onboarding process.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Future Verse itself is actually more of a B to
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: B proposition. So our customers are the brands and the
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: IP and studios and the developers who are using these tools,
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: and so people who need to know the totality of
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: Future Verse itself is a small subset. Like those people
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: that are going to come and engage, They're going to
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: come in and play Open, and they know Open and
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: they care about Open, right, it's window into the world.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: Of course, the core, like you know, hardcore community that
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: want to get like deep into the network and the
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: tokenomics and ecosystem, they have to do the research and
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: that's part of the game if you want to be
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: one of those like early adopters or super fans or like,
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: people are kind of interested in that side of the
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: value equation. But not everyone needs to know who future
• 11:48
  Speaker 2: versus and we more rather be like you know, Intel
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: inside than we would be kind of want to be
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: the front like facing brand for everyone out there.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: Okay, I like that answer because I think you're right
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: sometimes when you get into those eCos because to your
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: point is you'll get game players who are really isolated
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: in on one area. So I completely understand that it
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: can't necessarily be you know, kind of the the epic
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: game store kind of concept where you know, really though
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: it's very easy to understand if you're a gamer, but
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: you're usually just interested in one particular area. So yeah,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: I understand that.
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and if you want and if you want the
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: store experience, that's what ready versus exactly exactly, that's their job.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: It's not future versus job BINGO.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: Well, okay, so let's talk about some other things. I
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: want to get into Questmas. You guys had the twelve
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: Days of Questmas going on. I thought this was kind
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: of cool. Tell me about this just so people know.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so just leading up into Christmas, a whole bunch
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: of fun little challenges for people with rewards that are
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: dished out every day part of the build up to Christmas,
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: and giving some like extra little bonuses along the way
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: for people who've been in the community.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Talk to me and I think, you know, from a
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: standpoint of staking, because I don't know that people really
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: understand that route is a great place to deal with staking.
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: Explain to our audience, first of all, how it works.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: What's the process. Give me kind of the rundown.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so if you get if you have root, Root
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: is like the kind of network proof of steak token
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: inside of the inside of the root network, and so
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: it helps secure the network. So you secure the network
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: by staking route and in return you earn block rewards
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: in the form of fees that are paid by people
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: who are using the network. So last year alone, I
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: think people earned around one point three million XRP in
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: fees stak staking in the network. And so if you're
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: if you've got route, you go to steaking dashboard, you
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: choose a node that you want to steak against, or
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: you can create your own as a validator, be part
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: of the network, and then your stake will get locked
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: and an end of each cycle you'll get a bunch
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: of rewards in all of the tokens that have been
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: used on the network.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Usually the staking process is a couple of clicks. You
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: know you've got the tokens, you want to go in,
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: you want a steak granted. Root is a little bit
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: more difficult to get to. But in general, is there
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: any plan to do more improvements on that In terms
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: of the.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Experience actually shipped, I think four different updates to staking
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: in the last two months. I mean, I certainly find
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: it relatively easy. Once you're on the staking dashboard to
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: find a node and nominate is only a few clicks away,
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: so getting better all the time. You know, these things
• 14:51
  Speaker 2: can always be improved upon, but I think it's a
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: fairly straightforward experience once you've got your route.
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: Now, what about bridging XRP to XRPL, especially to Root,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: That in itself is still a process. There's you know,
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: it feels like there's a lot to jump through to
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: get that done.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: Again, that's getting easier and easier, and if you look
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: at the ecosystem that's building out around that. Giron Labs
• 15:15
  Speaker 2: recently launched the Garon wallet on iOS and Android and
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: Garon Wallett is a couple of clicks if you have
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: XRP on either XRPL or on the route network to
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: bridge between two. So very slick experience if you're out
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: If you're out there and you want to have a
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: native XRP l and native Root mobile wallet, go and
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: go and have a look at Garin Labs's wallet in
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: the app stores and literally one click away from bridging.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: You know, we're a big fan of XP market because
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: we're always looking for tokens within the XRP ecosystem. Root
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: is not on here? Why is that? Why can we
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: not have root on here?
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: Roots? So it's on the on XP market, on the
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: AMM now on on on XPL. So I'm not sure
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: why it wouldn't show up the end now interesting, Probably
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: something for the team to chase down. Okay, well but yeah,
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: you can find route on the xppl AMM already.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, well good, then we'll keep a close
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: eye on this going forward. A couple of other things
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: I want to get into, because AI agents are really
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: starting to move forward here in terms of the potential.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: You also look at kind of the idea behind what's
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: happening with Altered State. Explain to me a little bit,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: kind of walk me through that first so we can
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: kind of understand, because I think this is a unique
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: strategy that you guys are doing.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: A big part of our mission is making content interoperable
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: everywhere and allowing people to truly own their digital content.
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: When you have an n f T is something that
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: is portable, and that portability gives some meaning to ownership.
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: The second thing is how do we make it possible
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: for everyone to generate that content? And that's what the
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: generative AI is about. What's unique A little bit about
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: Altered State is how it interfaces with the non fungible
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: intelligence agent protocol, right, so everything you create create on
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: there can be minted and receive this agent personality as
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: part of it. And so we're taking that kind of
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: step from creating an object to making it part of
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: an agentic ecosystem inside of a game or application or experience.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah, to that point, you know, this was just a
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: bit wise prediction that you guys put out their tokens
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: launched by AI. Agent's going to spearhead the meme cooin
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: menia even bigger than twenty twenty four. So that'll be
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: interesting to see more of that. What is the potential,
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: especially for altered States in terms of a launch date?
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Do you have anything in life right now?
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we were looking for launch in this month, but
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: we have had we've had two well well not we
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: have had to, but we decided to add a couple
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: more features, so we're looking like early next year. Now.
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: Those are kind of features that help people go from
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: creating into animating and rigging, and so we wanted to
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: add those little bits and a little bit extra work.
• 18:26
  Speaker 2: But I think it'll be worth the wait in the
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: end to get there.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: One other thing I had on my list here was
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: in reference to untamed dials and the release date for
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: that as well, because I was looking at, you know,
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: just some of the explanation of what's going on there.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: What about this is one to get shen on and
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: start to talk about it. I know probably should now
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: and yeah, I would. I would encourage you to do
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: that and get him on there. I think he's doing
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: a bunch of fantastic stuff. And also in this AI
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: agent and meme coin domain, he's building some cool things.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: So get gets chin on, let him give you an
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: update on where things are at. And I think he's
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: tracking towards a launch next year last time I caught
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: up with him. So he's a great builder. The community
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: know him well and he usually delivers.
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Do you have any idea if they plan on
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: launching some of the NFTs into these three D I
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: are three D AI agents potentially or via AI agents.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: That's a good question. I actually haven't asked him that.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: I mean, we we certainly have the protocol on the
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: route network where you can upgrade your NFT to an
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: agent an I n f T and you could see
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: you could definitely see that being possible in what he's building.
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: You look at the augmented reality market and what it
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: might look like. One of the projects we've been following
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: has been over is there a potential, especially with altered States,
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: possibly going into an ar partnership with someone like over
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: for you know that kind of thing.
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: Now, we'd love to talk to anyone who's building a
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: the gaming and metaverse space, and there's lots of places
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: we can intersect. You know, if they've got games and experiences,
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: they could launch them from the Ready Verse. If they
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: want to integrate some generate some of this generative technology,
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: we can help them with that. If they want to
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: you know, improve the onboarding funnels for their users, we
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: can help them with that. There's lots of cool things
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: that we can add in terms of capability to people
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: who are building in these immersive and gaming experiences.
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: Aaron, we're wrapping up twenty twenty four here, but early
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: stage of twenty twenty five, a lot of builders really
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: starting to advance. We're seeing money flowing into the space
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: pretty quickly. Back in VC seems to be very active
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: in funding projects right now. When you look at where
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: future Verse is for twenty twenty five, any major milestone
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: that you feel like maybe in Q one that you
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: could talk about today.
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Q one our major kind of milestones
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: or focus is activating like I talked about early, these
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: partner communities with their pass onboarding process and their first
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: like user experiences content experiences inside of our ecosystem. That's
• 21:10
  Speaker 2: a really big piece of work that the team is
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: really focused on now. And then obviously starting to get
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: our hero experiences like the Ready Verse and Open into
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: the hands of users. Those are two like exciting things
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: happening for us in Q one.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: Sounds like you guys are going to have a big
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: year for sure next year, so we'll definitely have you
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: back on after some of this stuff is starting to
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: launch out there. It seems like you're right at the
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: finish line right now, so kudos to everything.
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's kind of you know, for me, like
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: exactly feels like that like the you know, the work,
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: all the underground work has been done and we're starting
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: now to see you know, the fruits of that turn
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: up and people building with these tools and the community
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: building with each other and these brands and partners onboarding.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: So it's really exciting for us to be at this point.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: And yeah, I agree, twenty five is going to be
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: a really interesting year for us.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. Yeah, I'm predicting some big, big news coming
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: out of this ecosystem for twenty twenty five. I have
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: a feeling that we're going to see some massive partnerships.
• 22:17
