- Did you know that if you put 100 black ants and 100 red ants in a jar, nothing will happen? But if you shake the jar hard, the ants start killing each other. The red ants consider the black ants their enemies, and the black ants consider the red ants their enemies. The true enemy is the one shaking the jar. The same thing happens in human society. So, before we attack each other, we should think about who is shaking the jar!

- The future of safe spaces for communities and communication might literally be in their own token gated games. As we see TikTok, Drakula, Orb, Farcaster, BlueSky, Mastadon, Rumble, Kik, IG, Threads, Phaver, X, Meta & more all duke it out for social supremacy 🤣 welcome to the Web3 is the true Wild West West (www) in this case.
- Excited to start (finally) sharing on here…
I always find it interesting looking back at moments of my life to see where certain experiences heavily influenced or impacted my trajectory today. Growing up I didn't have much, my mom worked holidays, nights and weekends. My dad was absent for the majority of my childhood, no siblings and strangers across the globe from the internet were some of my best friends. I never really had access to the latest technology, from phones to computers or game consoles, so I'd always have to go to friends places with wealthier backgrounds who had the latest and greatest new console, trending game or new toys. That ended up introducing me to virtual worlds that changed my life forever (MMORPG's like Everquest, World of Warcraft) and more. Which then resulted in me having the top character of 4million players on my server, and a top 3 guild/community of 500+ members. This dramatically accelerated my leadership skills, refined my communication, expanded my vocabulary and truly expanded the box and heightened the ceilings around how i've seen the world and operated ever since. It literally forced me to learn management skills, risk assessment, organic community building, how to rally people around a specific goal, how to keep team morale high and people excited and motivated to keep showing up. It introduced me to web design and graphic design as I'd build message boards and websites alongside create assets. It also taught me the basics of generating revenue outside of hustling weed, mixtapes, shirts, candies & snacks at my school. All of this under the age of 18. Now to say that the experience was all healthy and everything that glitters was gold would be a lie. I saw a lot of friends form extremely unhealthy habits. Physically, Mentally and even Emotionally and Financially. The cracks began to show when I started to see what the addictive nature of these games caused. Whether that was fighting, depression, shortened attention spans, sleep deprivation, failing in school etc. It all kinda comes back around when I process social media and look at UI/UX (user interface/experiences) of these new apps today. Would you say we're in a better place with the technology of today?.. with the return of “dumb devices” but deployment of VR headsets i think we’re in a pretty weird space rn 😂

- One big thing that’s been fatal to thousands of business I’ve watched crash & burn has been overbuilding product… I feel like we’re getting to a place now that we’re overbuilding humans. Planned obsolescence by Apple https://t.co/ej6jl5nFES
- If you have my Social Currency NFT and see this message, please drop a comment here & RT.
I'm gonna be doing something exclusive on a new Social Platform that's almost out of beta that requires token gating. The NFT will still have its utility of being able to be redeemed w/me… https://t.co/6ejulsxDNQ
- So many people learning about artificial intelligence that don’t have basic emotional intelligence and wonder why they feel disconnected

- I’d be curious of how many of you were around #Web3 #blockchain before Twitter Spaces & at our NFTStips dinner in Miami at BTC Conf 2021 at Broken Shaker? I swear I’ve seen so many people fall off, lose their way bc of a lack of deeper exploration or self awareness. No conviction https://t.co/OBfS7cgp3d
- Soooo TBH... I'm pretty buried in work that doesn't pay with no VC/Angel etc or cashflow directly from this for another 6-9 months buuuuuut @NewFriendTech now has 6 tracks built out workshops, jobfairs, demo stations, soundscape, etc etc. I'd love some addtl. Topic/Panel Titles~ https://t.co/Yw7fnp8vDv
- Consistently putting people in positions to win 🏆 🗺 📌 is conditioning yourself to be a strong leader, coach & operator. Gatekeeping opportunities or doing too much bc you want to do something but don’t have the bandwidth vs delegating & referring will kill your opportunities.
- It's always wild to me how many founders in tech/startup world I meet building for exits. Meanwhile, i'm over here building for an entry/legacy. I'm looking at these doors wayyyy differently.
- AI will replace the people who think it will. - https://t.co/bMXijs2KyW https://t.co/N1jGxS9riP
- 💥 closed minds with bad takes, corny opinions and poor perspectives will always be prohibitive of progress. You have to stay open, welcoming, abundant and experimental in order to truly see remarkable things happen. 🧠 Remember, They only call you CrAzY til it works 🙄 https://t.co/qpxsVSiWj9
- That easy https://t.co/5sIhliYQs9

Thx. https://t.co/jmnJZ6dsuX
- Who knew one of the bonus perks of being an artist and entrepreneur full time was back pains & anxiety? Like who do I thank for such gifts
- I’m always blow away 💨 when my #web3 friends haven’t seen my #web2 world, in the same way that my #web2 friends haven’t seen my #web3 worlds.
@NewFriendTech & @Urconduit will fix that for both sides of the coin 💫 for my next trick 🪄 ✨ I’ll turn a bear into a bull. https://t.co/eOgnZUA59x

- Marketplaces without Art are just giant empty high overhead data storage containers. When you give artists money, they spend it to make more art & on other artists. When you extract from them til they can’t breathe or create — You’re blocking potential cultural shifts & impact…. https://t.co/xT7S82ky74
- Really grateful for the opportunity to sit w/@ghazi of @EMPIRE again for @NewFriendTech to have a valuable convo around the future of things. Leaders of industry sometimes miss out & fall behind on opportunities bc we’re so busy/inundated to slow down. Don’t be that person. 🏎 💨 https://t.co/KcWaienFJs

- Promoting people and projects without doing proper research and DD is negligent... If you believe strongly enough to push something and it goes awry. Take accountability, responsibility and clean up the mess you made. Don't disappear for months & do the same thing all over again
