Cardano Rumor Rundown November 3, 2021

Hey Everyone!

Let's go...

Newly covered today:

1. A partnership among World Mobile, IOHK, and Zanzibar has been announced! It’s a five year plan that focuses on education, eGov solutions, the Blue Economy (sustainable fisheries), replicating the Blue Economy model in tourism | agriculture | & telecommunications. https://worldmobile.io/blog/post/partnering-with-zanzibar-blockchain-hub/
2. Alessandro has a great idea (multi-sig) to improve NFT drops over his original model that is now used by pretty much everybody! This would help mitigate the hassle of refunds and reduce some congestion. https://twitter.com/berry_ales/status/1455473647934742530
3. It feels crazy that we have over 2 million Cardano wallets out there these days. Our small ecosystem has become a gigantic one. https://datastudio.google.com/u/0/reporting/3136c55b-635e-4f46-8e4b-b8ab54f2d460/page/k5r9B

3. The Hoskinson Center for Formal Mathematics has been established at Carnegie Mellon. Given the blockchain activity at the university it seems like the Cardano founder having ties there can’t really hurt us. https://twitter.com/IOHK_Charles/status/1440443081183019017
4. dcSpark is launching a new wallet called Flint that will be able to interact with Cardano dApps. https://youtu.be/dDwuwVR75HU https://twitter.com/SebastienGllmt/status/1440659191731945482

7. Apparently RuntimeVerification is now in the Cardano audit business! This is awesome to see! We’’ll take some NASA mission-critical level auditing for our ecosystem’s projects. https://twitter.com/SundaeSwap/status/1441077920215310343
8. The Summit Agenda is now out. https://summit.cardano.org/agenda

17. In late 2008/early 2009 it turns out Hal Finney was learning Haskell and trying to figure out how to reduce C02 emissions from a (future) widely used Bitcoin. That sounds a lot like Cardano. https://twitter.com/seal_kiman/status/1443593563846193155
18. Adam Dean gives us a great post-mortem on the network load created yesterday by the NFT drop(s). https://twitter.com/adamKDean/status/1443599818845081600
19. Wow! It’s looking like Meld has landed a partnership with a mobile provider in Nigeria with nine million customers. Not many details out at this point (Sept 30). But, that certainly sounds like it could be gigantic. https://twitter.com/MELD_labs/status/1443548879966949382
20. Two factor authentication via SMS once again turns out to be a bad bet. https://bitcoinmagazine.com/business/hackers-rob-thousands-coinbase-customers-sms-mfa-flaw

22. The Wall Street Journal has dropped a video on stablecoins. A lot of the video surrounds the Tether dollar reserve controversy. It’s notable that Cardano’s Djed solves this. https://www.wsj.com/articles/biden-administration-seeks-to-regulate-stablecoin-issuers-as-banks-11633103156
23. The Biden Administration has announced they are investigating the prospect of regulating stablecoin providers like banks. https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/currencies/stablecoin-regulation-cryptocurrency-banks-biden-treasury-bitcoin-circle-tether-binance-2021-10
24. Cardano users on twitter piece together that Charles was talking about visiting u/Pezesha_Africa (in regard to microfinance) in Kenya. This is big because Pezesha operates in countries with a combined population of over $300MM. https://twitter.com/thr33strikes/status/1444898320070086659
25. Crypto twitter users try to depict US Whitehouse comments out of context to fuel an economic doom narrative. However, if you listen to the whole press briefing, you will understand that these comments were based on a “what if” scenario involving the US debt ceiling somehow not being raised. https://twitter.com/100trillionUSD/status/1445059673401528328
26. The so-called “Pandora Papers” reveal globally widespread cases of wealth concealment by public officials and bring up the question of whether blockchains like Cardano should take this into account when dealing with nation-state regimes as partners. https://www.icij.org/investigations/pandora-papers/
27. Remember! There is no mobile Daedalus wallet. There is no browser extension version of Daedalus. These are fakes! They will steal your ADA. https://twitter.com/InputOutputHK/status/1445380773096398853
28. A human readable address project is launching on Cardano on Saturday at 4pm UTC.https://medium.com/ada-handle/creating-a-fair-beta-launch-discord-community-is-live-7f580cd98235
29. Brazil is looking to follow the El Salvador example and accept crypto as legal tender with a new bill to be voted within days. While the crypto in question is BTC and not ADA, we can hope that the biggest market cap project is just our gateway drug. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/bitcoin-set-become-legal-payment-154644863.html
30. The “Zombie Lobster” collaboration between Charles Hoskinson and Paul Oakenfold is actually getting coverage by the EDM media outlets! https://edm.com/news/paul-oakenfold-album-cardano-blockchain
31. Sounds like we are getting close to the Cardano Summit NFT winners being announced. It’s still unclear how many actual winners there will be. https://twitter.com/InputOutputHK/status/1445672250435248131
32. dcSpark releases some mockups from the experimental version of its upcoming Flint Wallet. The mockups seem to indicate that the wallet will allow for dApp interaction from hardware wallets. https://twitter.com/FlintWallet/status/1444902727956508674
33. Charles is interviewed in the Harvard International Review. https://hir.harvard.edu/charles-hoskinson-1/

36. The New York Times is now talking about the difficult balancing act the Fed has before it with high inflation and less than promising jobs data creating conflicting priorities. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/08/business/economy/fed-jobs-full-employment-inflation.html
37. Representative Tom Emmer clashes with SEC Head Gensler over the direction of crypto regulation. However, it’s unclear how much Rep. Emmer’s solution (his Securities Clarity Act bill) would solve the problem given that it only relieves issuers of securities regulation burdens after they have already complied with the “registration or exemption” hurdle. https://twitter.com/RepTomEmmer/status/1445465912375590913 https://emmer.house.gov/2021/7/emmer-introduces-legislation-to-provide-certainty-for-digital-assets-under-securities-law
38. Caitlin Long revisits the articles she wrote years ago about fears of circulation credit in crypto markets. Spoiler: it came and crypto did it to itself. https://twitter.com/CaitlinLong_/status/1446874905241210880
39. COTI is a licensed payment institution in Singapore. This could get very interesting given their status as the issuer of Djed and the ongoing Monetary Authority of Singapore Blockchain Challenge in which Cardano is a finalist. https://cotinetwork.medium.com/coti-lists-as-a-payment-institution-in-singapore-666c6fcaaab4
40.

41. Cardano isn’t wrong about Africa. It’s just first. Google is investing $1 Billion in African internet access over the next five years. https://techcrunch.com/2021/10/06/google-confirms-1b-investment-into-africa-including-subsea-cable-for-faster-internet/ https://twitter.com/ghostchainer/status/1445964578257395714
42. SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce (cryptomom) delivers an opinion piece that investors should be allowed to make their own decisions without SEC paternalism. https://www.cnn.com/2021/10/11/perspectives/sec-commissioner-investors-regulators/index.html

47. Eric Rosengren (who recently left the Boston Fed) let’s us know that the Fed/MIT CBDC project is pretty far along and will release a working paper soon. This would obviously be impactful for all of crypto and for Cardano. https://youtu.be/ivqFo9C2Jdo?t=409
48. The first project that actually looks like it may one day be a virtual world launches on Cardano and it already has a community built parcel explorer. https://pavia.luiscarlos.pt/
49. SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce (cryptomom) gave a polite but scathing speech at the Texas Blockchain Summit where she laid bare all the problems with the SEC’s current approach to crypto. After her recent opinion piece and this speech, it’s fair to say that she and SEC Chairman Gensler are in open war over crypto. How this gets resolved will determine the regulatory landscape for Cardano and all of crypto going forward. Sadly, Gensler is in charge and not vice versa. https://twitter.com/HesterPeirce/status/1448011388841037830 https://www.sec.gov/news/speech/peirce-2021-10-08
50. The Fed may begin tapering it’s Treasury and mortgage backed securities purchases in mid November. This is relevant for the whole economy including crypto. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/10/13/federal-reserve-releases-minutes-from-its-september-policy-meeting.html
51. Sounds like the Milkomeda sidechain is making good progress. https://twitter.com/NicoArqueros/status/1448447729689059332
52. Apparently, Putin kind of accepts that crypto might choose to exist. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-10-14/putin-defends-cryptocurrencies-amid-global-regulation-push
53. Don’t forget: today (Oct 15) is the October Mid-Month Development Update! https://twitter.com/InputOutputHK/status/1448715241961963520
54. Sounds like Binance was not allowing ADA withdrawals for some period of time. https://twitter.com/Katsumoto87/status/1449723293632634882
55. The Cardano Africa Tour has commenced with Charles popping up in South Africa. https://twitter.com/IOHK_Charles/status/1449304264849993731
56. We got a nice Triple H update from Harrison/Hemsley/Hammond joined by Jan Müller in the October mid-Month Dev Update. We learned that we’ll have a maintenance upgrade toward the end of October and then PAB a few weeks later. This is extremely important since it will finally allow for the last bits of dApp buildout. The PAB is already available on the tesnet. The test dApp the team is using is an NFT marketplace. The team is watching as we see high loads around events like NFT drops. But, the network is reacting as expected. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XzdTyV5Jejc

They will go from primarily delegating to promote decentralization to a new framework focused on delegating to promote ecosystem buildout. https://forum.cardano.org/t/cardano-foundations-new-delegation-methodology-supporting-the-architects-of-the-future/79594
61. Shahaf Bar-Geffen gives us some more details about the Djed launch. He says IOHK is doing the coding and COTI is doing the business side. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlPmIgJ0tE0
62. In the Cap Innovation & Technology Initiative Fireside Q&A, Charles mentioned he is talking to Colossol Labs about the possibility of having the Mammoth DeExtinction Project take place on his bison ranch. There are probably some obvious NFT or tokenization use cases there. https://colossal.com/mammoth/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmuJFc5Qrr4
63. Three U.S. Senators ask Facebook to discontinue its Novi crypto wallet which just launched. https://www.theverge.com/2021/10/19/22735171/facebook-novi-diem-libra-calibra-cryptocurrency-digital-wallet-zuckerberg-senate https://techcrunch.com/2021/10/19/facebook-scales-back-its-crypto-ambitions-once-again/

70. The Cardano ecosystem maps are getting so big and dense that they can’t even display logos for the projects anymore. https://twitter.com/Meapool1/status/1450576470133379072/photo/1
71. There is a report that unstaked ADA is at an all time low of under 8MM ADA. https://twitter.com/IbanxStaking/status/1451944344294883331
72. Check out this medium article explaining the validator underlying the Spacebudz Market. It’s very elegantly and concisely explained if you have no Haskell/Plutus understanding. It’s even more interesting if you have a tiny bit of understanding of Haskell. https://spacebudz.medium.com/spacebudz-market-71e79d1bbf34
73. Atala Prism named a top 50 Most Influential Project by PMI. https://twitter.com/IOHKMedia/status/1452544441005248514

75. Charles is releasing some images of meetings with heads of state on his Africa tour. https://twitter.com/IOHK_Charles/status/1452671287977971726 https://twitter.com/IOHK_Charles/status/1452672734580838409/photo/2
76. There is currently ongoing discussion about the possibility of unexpected tax liability from participation in even Fair Initial Stake Pool Offerings where there are accompanying Initial Dex Offerings. There is even discussion about the potential of exploits that could amplify this unexpected tax liability for all participants. https://twitter.com/mikerogero/status/1452502065381404675 https://medium.com/@mikerogero/tax-implications-of-the-minswap-ido-on-fiso-delegators-and-the-cardano-community-4db219ea8932

85. Cardano 360 October Edition is now out and available! https://youtu.be/R0s3lPG8XDw
86. The crypto time traveler is back after many months of being gone (i.e. purportedly being in the future).

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Bitcoin's price increased $23K in October. By comparison, it took Bitcoin from Day 1 until December 2020 to pass $20K.

When you think about all the history of Bitcoin, from Satoshi's mining through Silk Road and Mount Gox to the creation of Ethereum to the Bitcoin block size wars, the 2017 ICO craze, through multiple bear markets and the COVID black swan event. The whole story that tells since its creation.

All of that price action over all of those years - up, down, sideways (but always to the right, of course) - is less than what we saw last month alone. 31 days.

It's kind of mind-blowing when you sit back for a moment and think how far things have come versus how fast they're moving today.

Just a little bit of perspective to take when you're meme-poking Bitcoin with a stick to "do something."

SafeMoon Sunday Transcript - October 31st (Part 1)

SafeMoon Sunday Transcript - October 31st

John: We’ll go ahead and kick it off. Alright, I’m John the CEO of SafeMoon. We’ll be having Ryan and we should be having Thomas joining us here shortly as well. We’ll be talking about the new wallet update and the wallet, briefly go over what DarkMoon is, talk about some wind turbines because everyone’s wondering about that, and then discuss exchange progress and take it from there.

First off, I want to congratulate all the new members of the SafeMoon Army. Congratulations, we grew by over 100,000 new holders. Now why is that important ? Well, the SafeMoon Army has an obligation to educate everyone about cryptocurrency and blockchain in general. Blockchain should be as common knowledge as movie references or brands of potato chips.

Alright, hey Ryan.

Ryan: I am here guys ! Twitter needs to make it a little easier. I send the request like 20 times and I think you guys don’t get it on your end or there’s some kind of lag but, man, so excited to be here John. Let’s kick this off.

J: Awesome. So Ryan, go ahead and introduce yourself. We have 100k new people so go ahead and introduce yourself and what you do at Safemoon.

R: Absolutely, so I'm Ryan Arriaga. I am the Global Head of Products here at SafeMoon. So all of the new exciting products that we are launching, chances are I am either in charge of that or I touch it at some level. So - John brought me on not too long ago. I'd say - what is that, three months already?

J: Three months.

R: We’re having fun, huh?

J: Yeah. Wallet out and, well, do you want to say it? You know, I'll just say right now - over 500,000 users on the SafeMoon Wallet in under 50 days since release.

R: Amazing.

J: Other companies - it usually takes them at least a year if not more. We did that in 50 days and this is just the beginning. So, you know, to all the fudders out there, I laugh in Android and iOS wallet. 500,000 downloads. Millions of volume through the SWaP. Like I can go on and on about the achievement but -

R: Yeah and I think that a lot of people don't understand the Web 3 dynamic because I think that when people think “Oh, it's just an app.” No, no. When you mix Web 3, which is more of an emerging tech, into what we're doing and we did that in the amount of time that we did that, it speaks volume to what we're doing here at SafeMoon. So really excited. I mean, we're going to keep pushing forward obviously. And as a matter of fact, John, you know what we should do?

J: What should we do?

R: Something a little different today.

J: What are you thinking?

R: I'm thinking we should just go ahead and launch the Android update right now. As a matter of fact, I'm going to go ahead and send a push notification to the over 200,000 users that we have for Android, and I just click the button and we just went live. So now everybody who is listening to this SafeMoon Sunday, you're going to be the first to know before this push notification goes out, that you now will have the option to download the newest Android app and have the long awaited reflections tracker that everybody has been waiting for, with charts and new SWaP pairs, and that's going to be going live on Android in the next about a few minutes.

J: Fantastic, I'm excited.

R: I just sent the push notification to over 200,000 users and they're all going to get that right now and it's probably gonna start hitting their phones. So iOS (inaudible). So once that's out there, going to be pushing that.

J: Awesome man. Just so everyone knows, the new SWaP pairs, these are just the first of many on SWaP – is SHIB-ETH, AAVE-ETH and LINK-ETH. So these will be ETH pairings And then BSC will quickly follow. So for those who don't know, BSC is Binance Smart Chain, Etherium is Etherium Chain. These are two different blockchains with different consensus algorithms, et cetera. So I - for those who are new to cryptocurrency, I recommend you look up the difference between the two. Also, speaking of education, look up “on chain” and “off chain transactions as well. That should be a good little read. There's a lot of YouTube videos out there, and if you need , hop into the discord and there's thousands of people who are more than happy to help educate you.

And then Ryan, correct me if I'm wrong. We've got BTC and Doge coming up as well.

R: Yep, we're going to be working on that on the next update, so people will start being able to hold Doge and BTC in their app as well as some other features that we're going to be working on. Do you want to talk about those as well?

J: Yeah, yeah so. We’re adding the 24-word imports and then multiple wallets on the next update.

R: Exactly. So we heard a lot of stuff from the community. Everybody's been chiming in and they love the ability to import their 12-word seed phrase. But people are like, “Well, what about my 24-word seed phrase?” We're thinking, you know what? Let's go ahead and add a feature where people can have an option to also import their 24-word seed phrase. So we're not just doing 12, we’re also going to do 24-word. And John, we’re also going to be doing multiple wallets because everybody said that they wanted multiple wallets on the Twitter poll. We gotta listen to the community, so we're doing that as well. After this update goes out, the very next thing we're going to be doing is multiple wallets, import your 12 or 24-word seed phrase, and Bitcoin and Doge holdings. And some other features, but we'll announce those as they come.

J: We will talk about those later. Alright. Kind of diving in, a lot of people have been asking about the exchange and you know my response is always that it's not - from the technical aspect it is not hard. Like, doing off chain transactions is just basically a piece of paper, you know, with extra steps. Matching buys and sells in an order book.

But the hard part is the regulatory side, and I'm proud to announce that we now have a very clear and very set forth path for those regulatory items that we have to check off. And while that's being done, Ryan and his team and the exchange team will be building up the tech side, so great progress has been made. But that deserves its own moment. We'll talk about that in a future SafeMoon Sunday.

One of the questions I actually got regarding the exchange was is it going to be a separate application or is it going to be tight into the wallet? Well, Ryan, you know I've been discussing this. Ideally we’s just tie it into the wallet as a separate tab. But you know, we have to work through the regulatory because it even comes down to how you separate the code and everything else in regards to the regulation. And realise, we're not just doing this for the United States were also doing this for all of our international jurisdictions as well. We’re working hard. We’ll let you know when we have more information.

But Ryan, correct me if I’m wrong. The actual exchange part is easy.

R: The actual exchange part that we're working on, aside from the regulatory stuff because that's always like waiting on a third party time ten, right? So the the actual exchange part, the technical side, we’re very excited with the progress that we've had and obviously we're not going to any timelines yet but I think we're getting closer to the point, John, where maybe the next AMA or an AMA after that possibly we can possibly, we can actually start maybe talking about soft timelines for that because we're actually making great progress.

J: Oh yeah, I'm excited. Fantastic progress has been made, you know, just talked to the team yesterday about it and it's great. I'm excited.
You know, kind of little side note. Funny joke, I was watching Blade last night. Happy Halloween or belated Halloween to everyone and there was an individual in there. They're like, “Oh you're human”. He's like “No, I'm not. I'm a lawyer”. So little lawyer joke right there. Anyway. \laughs**

We’re dealing with lawyers right now, so that's what we have to work though.

So yeah, the exchange is well underway. We're excited about the progress there. Ryan’s working on his stuff and when we have more information, we’ll push that out.

So a lot of people have been asking me about Dark Moon. So what is Dark Moon? Well, Dark Moon’s basically where - all the crazy stuff that we work on, we work on it there because, you know, there's IP involved and other stuff. And then as soon as it's ready, for public release and public consumption, then it comes to what I call the Light Side of the Moon. But we've got a lot of great stuff. Now people are asking “What do you work on in Dark Moon?” The hints are all there. You know, how many times do I talk about macro IoT.

Yeah, so we can go into the like - how blockchain can tie into energy grid telecommunications and the efficiency that can be created there. And there's no industry that couldn't benefit from blockchain integration. Anywhere from tracking produce, from the point of dirt where it came out of all the way to the supermarket in five different foreign countries.

Imagine an NFT assigned to each one of those batches and it gets tracked every single time. As soon as it hits the truck, as soon as it hits X, as soon as it touches the supermarket, you scan the QR code like, “Oh! This is where it was grown. This is, from the time of picking to the grocery store, you can see the exact date. I could go on and on about -

R: Yeah, every transaction verifiable via blockchain and allowing the ledger to provide transparency of that check-in, of that event, and of “That shipment arrived at this area and this person boom scanned in at this time at this date”.

Boom. Everything verifiable through blockchain. And when people are listening to this, like wrap your head around all of the things that - transferring from the traditional system to the blockchain system and having a verifiable and transparent system, that's where the thought process needs to go.

J: Yeah, that's going to be a lot of education at that we need to push out when that's ready for release and everything.

So we got Thomas up here. Welcome Thomas!

R: Is that Papa? Welcome, Thomas. Yeah, it's the wizard.

Thomas: Some technical difficulties. My bad. As it turns out, there's a special link for inviting and joining the space normally does not help.

J: Yeah, well, when you're sifting through thousands, you know it's easier just to invite, but.

Yeah, Thomas, I'm sure you'd back me up about how there is no industry that can't benefit from blockchain technology. You know what I mean?

T: As of now, no. It's almost too late to not be considering the watching strategy heard for any business so -

Yeah, I see it all over real estate right now. Massive pushes over there. Traditional financial tools are getting an overhaul. You’ll see large waves of these old money investors getting involved now. It’s very exciting.

J: Ohh yeah. Blockchain, I believe personally and I’m sure, Thomas, you do as well, and Ryan, that blockchain is the future or at least a system like blockchain. You know, whatever the next innovation is. So, that kind of ties us into a little bit of the next thing.
Thomas, SafeMoon blockchain, you know? We talked about DLS or Distributed Ledger Systems and how those can work in conjunction with blockchain. You want to go into that a little bit?

T: These ledger systems, the nodes, each individual full wallet holder is in the network or typically in a blockchain network where every single node is comprised of everybody’s balances together, you share them together. And you validate blocks together. That's how the network is formed. So this is where you see decentralized governance come into play. Some other very interesting features of this encryption so.

Yes, that's pretty much what that is. All of the nodes together comprise a very large collection of balances.

J: Yeah, it's a network of networks all speaking with each other, so you know, there's some great stuff that Thomas is working on right now in the background. You know, a lot of architecting, a lot of testing, a lot of processing. I'm sure you've seen his uh - what do you call it, Big Bertha or whatever?

T: Oh, the server. Honestly, I don't have a nickname for it yet. Bertha sounds pretty cool. I was thinking of The Gibson. I might invite attack though \laughs**

But the server, our first cluster is open and it's three blades. These are the best commercially available blades. We can do high volume data processing with it. I'm going to be providing a lot of very interesting tools along the way post-blockchain.

So a lot of that stuff you'll see pop out of Dark Moon. I don't want to expose too much yet.

J: Yeah, we don't talk about that yet. Ryan, we’ve got a lot of partnerships to include - all i will say this, there is an exchange that we’re finalizing agreements with for listing and then we have a second one quickly in the wing, in the background.

And then Ryan, you know, we've been working with UniCrypt quite a bit and I just have to say they're fantastic to work with, you know. A lot of folks right now are trying to use other services for launching their own projects etcetera, but UniCrypt, honestly, in my personal opinion, is the way to go.

They're open innovation and, this isn’t really an advertisement, I just want to give a shoutout to a great partner that we've been working with this entire time, from the initial locking to migrations to whatever else that we need… They are a great partner so -

SafeMoon Sunday Transcript - October 31st (Part 3)

R: Yeah, absolutely. The way that I would say it is to your friend, especially if they have, you know, no knowledge, even of the crypto space. The way that I would, I would convey this idea is hey you understand, like how there's different tech products out there right now and they all use regular fiat currency as their fuel, right?

That's their fuel and how the other products work with each other, right? That's how the other products are paid for. Well, with SafeMoon, we are mirroring those products, so we're mirroring different products, and we're not going to - I wish I could say some of them, but I'm not going to say with those products are because when they start coming out then you guys are going to start seeing “Oh I've seen this product before. It's very similar to this other product in the tech space”, but now SafeMoon has their own.
And that product is working specifically with the blockchain and it’s working on the blockchain. This is the migration that a lot of these big tech companies are spending millions and millions of dollars trying to get into because they're trying to make the shift from regular traditional tech and saying, “Huh. How can we get our product to work with the blockchain so we can now call it an emerging tech or a blockchain product? How can we do that? How can we take”, this is just an example, “How could we take Facebook and make Facebook on the blockchain? How can we make it so that all of these likes or posts are decentralized or working within the blockchain in a certain way that you know they’re decentralized so you have files out there, like Filecoin for example, that allows you to decentralize your data so that it can never be censored or taken down?” These are just examples, but all these companies are trying to make that push and SafeMoon, what we're doing is we're releasing a suite of products that do just that.

So that's how you would want to probably convey that to your friend if they don't have any knowledge about the about the crypto space.

Rojas: I like that a lot, man. I recognize that most most successful entities, they are successful because they don't only have one product, they have a whole ecosystem like you guys are talking about. So to me that sounds very, very promising man like honestly, I am praying and I'm hoping - I believe in you guys. Don't think I'm doubting you, but I'm really hoping you guys deliver all that and I'm really excited to see SafeMoon being listed in other exchanges and stuff. I'm really excited for those. I know, Karony, I know you're tired of people asking when that’s going to happen so I’m not even going to bug you with that.

But um, yeah man, I'm really excited about that. Also, all the features that are going to come out. I'm still waiting on more updates in the iOS. I hope we can get that update that the Android guys just got. I hope we can get it soon. I’d like to have all those features as well. But yeah man, I'll keep looking into everything you guys are doing and I'm pretty happy I'm gonna stick with you guys for a pretty long time. It's at least that's what it's looking like. Congratulations guys.

R: Thank you.

J: Appreciate the kind words. Hey everyone, so i've gotta hop off. I will leave you guys in the capable hands of Thomas and Ryan. I've got to board my flight so thank you everyone. It’s awesome to join you guys. I'll see you guys on the next one.

T: See you later, man.

R: Yep, safe flight. Alright, so let's go ahead and get another question up here.

Vico: Hey Ryan, this is Vico. Just quickly, two questions. One would be any idea when the road map is going to be uploaded onto the website? I think that's going to help out a lot of the thousands of new investors we've gotten this week alone.

R: Yeah, so we've been discussing how we're going to - it's a fine balance because there's things that we’re coming out with that we want to make sure that it's not out there for the world completely, because then we have to think about competition and we have to think about all these other things that are getting coming down that that could steamroll our launch and we want to make sure that we're doing it correctly. But we also want to make sure, obviously, that you guys see a road map of different products and things to look forward, too. We have been discussing this in the back end and how we're going to approach that, how we're going to go about it. We just haven't fully, I would say agreed on what we're going to display to the public and what's going to be shown. So when we do that, it's going to be things that are maybe a little bit more, I would say softer, like maybe not going into full detail, but doing it in such a way that it doesn't completely let the cat out of the bag. But we're still deciding on how we're going to do that, so we will give you guys an update whenever we do launch that and whenever we get that on there for everybody. We're just trying to figure out now how we do it in such a way that we're making sure that we protect our IP, too, before we launch.

Vico: Fair enough. My last question is regarding marketing. This is something that's been brought up in a lot of these spaces that I hop on a weekly and it's, in terms of as a company itself, is SafeMoon thinking about doing any marketing strategies with like sports events such as Super Bowls, NASCAR events, what have you?

R: Yeah, there's a lot of things that are happening on the back end with our marketing team. They get so many people reaching out for different sponsorships, you know, or different airtime. That is completely with marketing. I personally am not working with that team. I'm on product so I can't really answer that, but I will say that I do know that on the back end there's a lot of stuff that they're working on that I don't have access to, unfortunately. I'm not Privy to that on the product side, but I do know that, yes, definitely. That's already something that marketing is working on.

Vico: Awesome, thank you. That's it. I'm going to hop off as a speaker, maybe someone else can hop on.

R: Yeah, thanks a lot man.

Zack: Hi guys.

R: Hey, how's it going, Zach?

Zack: Good, how are you?

R: Good good.

Zack: Firstly, I'd just like to show some appreciation. We want to thank you all for your hard work and dedication to the project. We truly appreciate it.

R: Absolutely thank you.

Zack: So my question is regarding the wallet, potentially in a future update. Some background, myself and I'm sure a few other folks originally created our wallet through MetaMask. I had an existing MetaMask and created a second wallet within that. That being said, that second wallet that holds my SafeMoon does not have a seed phrase. It only has a private key. Will we have the ability -

R: Ahhh. We’re already on it, buddy. We're already on it. I know what you're going to say. You're going to say the ability to import a wallet with a private key, right?

Zack: Exactly.

Ryan: Yep, we're already on it. That is going to be our next update we're working on. It's going to be bip39. It's going to be a 12-word seed phrase, 24-word seed phrase, being able to import your wallet and then also the ability to import by private key in multiple wallets.
So that's going to be all wrapped up into a nice update, and that's going to be the very next thing that we're working on because you guys ask for it. And, well, that's what we do, we deliver. So yeah, it's so funny you said that because even with my MetaMask it's the same problem. I had the same exact thing. You set up several accounts and then you have that one private key in there and then that's like your main one. So yeah, we're going to have that as well.

Zack: Yeah, I didn't even realize that was a thing until I tried to import when the wallet released. So that's awesome to hear. Thanks so much

R: Yeah, absolutely.

Arjay: Hey guys.

R: Hey Arjay, how's it going?

Arjay: Good man, thank you so much for having me. I got two questions here. First and foremost, with all the projects you guys are currently working on, I just wanted to see if the blockchain is still on track for December release and the second question is one from the community and they were saying once we're on our own blockchain will Swap and Liquefy still buy 50/50 SafeMoon and BNB or will it be only SafeMoon for the liquidity pool? Thank you so much.

R: Yeah, definitely so I can't comment on the timeline because blockchain that's a huge undertaking, but I think you know as far as the last, more technical part, I think Thomas you probably speak to that.

T: Yeah sure, so with regard to any kind of timeline, we always want to be careful with it. Still looking at December if that changes, we're going to let you know.

So once we move to our own chain we’ll be using SafeMoon as gas, so it will be like a primary, kind of like how BNB is. So when you're talking about liquidity pools with regard to our actual chain and tokens that may be on it. We're going to have a SafeMoon token on the SafeMoon chain. There's no reason not to make that bridge. It's going to be fun, but in the end, what you'll see are liquidity pools in SafeMoon-SafeMoon or SafeMoon-Other tokens. So with regard to that mechanic, Swap and Liquify still heavily under debate, because you know, it’s been identified that Swap and Liquify does have to liquefy, right? That puts a little bit of a hint of downward pressure so.

Um, we're still looking at that. I want to be careful with how I answer that, but as far as the liquidity pool goes and the chain you'll be seeing SafeMoon instead of BNB.

Arjay: Super cool, thank you so much.

T: You're welcome

R: Thanks Arjay for your question. We’ll take I believe two more questions. Anyone else?

SantiFinesse: I'll ask my question really quick.

R: Awesome yeah, go right ahead.

Santi: Alright, hello everybody. My name is Santi. First of all big shout out to Ryan, Thomas, and John who is not here. Love you guys, love everything you guys do since day one. You guys just showed so much support for the community and I just got a quick question about something coming up on the wallet.

R: Sure, shoot.

Santi: Alright, so I know you said in the next update that's coming there will be BTC. You will be allowed to have BTC holdings? Will we be able to use BTC to swap for SafeMoon? Because I live in New York and we can get Bitcoin directly from multiple places. But to get Binance coin, there's a lot of hoops to go through so if BTC is going to be able to be swapped for SafeMoon in the future update, that’ll really, really help to make the process of acquiring SafeMoon for people who are new. I think that'll be like a tremendous help. So I'm just wondering when you say BT C is going to be able to be a holding, will it also be able to be used in the SWaP feature?

R: Yeah, totally valid question. So BTC and Doge, what we're looking for as just to start in the new update, you'll be able to hold them in your wallet.

It will not have a SWaP feature where you can swap Bitcoin for SafeMoon, however, we are looking into that. We understand it's very important. Obviously the more coins that we can get onto our wallet the better, because that goes with John’s point of accessibility. So totally understand. We are definitely looking at ways to do that and when we do it we have to be careful because we have specific chains that our SWaP can work with as a multi-chain very more easily. When you get into different chains like Doge or Polkadot or others, they're just different. So the way that I would answer this question is yes, it's on our radar. It's definitely something that is gonna be launched eventually, but it's not going to be in this next update.

T: Speaking on that very quick. Just from what he was saying, because there's no virtual machine component in something like the Bitcoin and Dogecoin, it's much easier for us to integrate with tokens and other smart chains and things like that.

But I can confirm it is entirely possible. There's a bunch of ways to do this. It's all through the RPC calls and how we manage in a way or two. I'm just backing him up, totally can happen.

Santi: Alright guys, awesome. Thank you so much for answering my question and as always we appreciate the hard work you guys do. God bless you all and thank you for answering my questions, seriously. Have a good day. Enjoy the rest of you guys’ weekend and holiday, wherever you're at.

R: Hey you too man. Thanks a lot. For coming up here and asking the question as well. Appreciate your contribution.

Alright, I think we're going to take one more question.

T: So really quick shout out to everybody listening. I think you're all fantastic.

R: So cool. These people have been through the thick and thin with us. I see all your one-hundreds and respect. Respect back, guys.

All right, we got Paul.
