- drew: yalor is on world tour. GM bus. will be at mcon. driving around whole nation. pulling green pill trailer. he's asking for some sponsoship support. in turn will be advertising MF
- drew: main reason we are removing liquidity -- we're trying to raise $1 or $2 mil from a group of people.... even at a preium of robot price, we -- and they -- there's so much liquidity they could purchase -- we're restricting that possibility such that we can make a favorable OTC deal that benefits DAO and community
- don't want to sell at current market price
- or at any discount
- we've been evaluating at what price we think is fair
- these things long term aligned
- jin: OTC deal to benefit robot holders as well. aligns at higher market price.
- drew: other option is they just make the purchase on chain -- lots of options to discuss
- jin: streaming uncanney alley
- showing cuerret version up on vket cloud
- botique districts / miniverses being built.
- compared to dcl sandbox, cvl -- its kind of a more community hubs type of thing.
- each container could be a place for artists to exhibit various shit
- jin showing various avatars
- metarick: utility in your face. here's avatar. click. now i'm in it, i can use it, i can buy it.
- in these crews we have these capabilities.
- utility out of the box right away

- story really evolving -- esp bringing it all to weba
- user friendly nature of being browser based
- quick minting, super seamless, in world -- so exciting
- metarick: short term goals, understanding pain points. the boom tools stuff -- imagine in the future, in this web3 space we have boom tools as a functioning machine. that's dope. literally run around with avatar test driving shit.

- drew: film festival. multi platform world by meta rick. part of venice immersive -- part of venice film festival
- metarick: next week doing a vrchat meetup to do stuff
- 1900 UTC
- exactly this time right now is hard time for intro sessions to start
- drew: huge divide between vr and web3 communities.
- we need to show them the light of what we are doing
- we think how we are going to approach minting process will help
- vs. big 10k pfp lotto then build something 18 months later
- we can bring web3 in a much more thoughtful way
- vrchat is anti nft -- the store is boarded and closed off. vket-- a few less boards, still closed. weba -- completely open
- drew: mcon planning. meeting with irl art and yalor -- we're gonna have on site sales, unique stuff, live production, vr experience type of stuff. handful of local denver based designers that helped coordinate a denver fashion show recently ... talking to a handful of them about MF and what we are doing. how digital fashion and kong chips work. sounds like we will wrap in some local denver artists to do some MF or robot or chili cartel themed stuff
- porting goodies into wearables and accessories
- building virtual version of mcon similar to metaphysical
- jin: showing scans metadreamer provided
- drew: highly curated list happening at mcon -- very high value. its going to be exciting.

- metadreamer: we will have a big room. we can experiment. a bunch of screens. do whatever we want.
- open to ideas on what would be a cool thing to showcase there
- i have a bunch of AV gear. video switchers. recorders. SDI and NDI stuff. we have all that to leverage
- generally i want to create a cool experiential thing for people to check out and have it be metaverse themed or related
- i will defer to you guys on what you guys would be excited to help build out
- 3d scans, a virtual production setup using unreal engine, camera setup i have can be gen locked and sync'd to unreal engine thing so we can do a lightweight type of virtual production
- can we do something realted to uncanney alley?
