GM GM GM. Hey everyone, I'll come back to another hood market spaces. Thank you guys all for joining. It's nice to see all of you guys here. We'll start in just about a minute. I hope you guys are all doing well. Like the last couple of times, see some familiar names, familiar pictures. It's good to see you guys back and to everyone who's joining us for the first time. Welcome guys. It's good to see some new faces as well. And yeah, I'm joined with my co-host Rome as usual. Rome. Welcome, man. Welcome back. What's up, man? How's everybody been? Hope everybody's been doing good. Yeah, man. All good here. I'm actually in Germany for a few days and then going back. So, timing is a little bit on my side right now, which is good, a little bit closer to the rest of the world. But yeah, man, how's the Texas weather treating you? Man, it's always a beautiful day when I don't got to be at work, man. It's nice to have a little breeze going on. It's cloudy over here. That's a beautiful day. You don't work, Mondays. My days off rotate, so I'll be off next day in the following Wednesday and stuff like that. Got to. Nice, man. Yeah, that's awesome. Awesome. Well, might as well start, guys. So like I said, welcome back to everyone who's joining us not for the first time. And for all our first timers, welcome guys. Hope you're all doing well. We got some recent numbers coming in and looking forward to seeing those go up as we go through the spaces. Pretty awesome space today. We got a couple of things to announce. And before that, we'll start with our usual kind of intro about the project. I'll keep it brief. Many of you guys would probably already be familiar with the hood market to some extent. So we're going to do a very quick kind of intro for those of us who might be joining us for the first time. And then we will get right into it. So for all our first timers and just kind of as a maybe a refresher for everyone who's coming back as well, hood market is the first dedicated NFT marketplace and utility platform native to and fully dedicated to the Robin Hood chain. We've been live for I would say probably just around two weeks ish maybe a little bit just under that. But yeah, just probably 10, 11 days or so. Days are going by pretty fast. And things seem to be going and building building building trying to add as much value to our platform as possible. We are focused on not just being an NFT marketplace just as a core functionality but also making sure that we are adding as many creator-friendly tools on our platform. And on that there's going to be some announcements coming up shortly. So it's not just about selling or training NFTs. It's about building and adding more tools into the platform that kind of support that and streamline and improve the kind of NFT overall NFT interaction experience as well. A couple of highlights. Many of you would probably know this by now but one of our kind of core features or core offerings is the fact that our minting fees are just 1% of the total collection value rather than let's say for example 10% in terms of being compared to other platforms. And you're able to launch a collection. You can mint the collection and obviously you can also add more NFTs to an existing collection even after it's minted, which is nice. Obviously I've said this before. There's obviously things like token supply that you kind of want to make sure to keep in mind with that type of thing but it is a function that we offer as well. We recently launched the option to create a staking contract directly on the platform without coding. So there's a tool specifically built for that where you're able to build or create your own staking contract directly on the platform, no coding. And obviously there's a lot of flexibility with like reward tokens, the rewards that you distribute, all of that stuff which is exciting. And with that said in terms of kind of recent updates things that kind of came out recently, we just got kind of on a side quick side note we got verified on RobinSkab which is nice. But also we have opened a telegram channel. So we've kind of already had a telegram channel like an announcement channel. Like since we launched effectively or just maybe a day or two after. But now we have a fully functioning telegram community discussion channel which we just opened today. So if you are a telegram user or you just prefer telegram over Discord, this might be the place for you. Obviously we also still have our Discord, our X as well. So whatever, you know, your kind of platform of choice, we've got a channel there. So yeah, feel free to kind of join up guys. The link to our telegram is in our link tree on our X profile, but also it is in the announcements channel on Discord. So looking forward to seeing to seeing you guys who aren't already there. There as well, Rome. Do you have any trouble talking? Maybe do a quick check. I was working. You hear me? Yeah, I can hear you fine now. Yeah. I was going on man with my phone. I'm using the iPhone because I have problem with my Android. No, I'm just going to say it's probably X this fault. It's always X this fault. Yeah, I agree man X and all these updates that they're doing. They just recently updated the spaces. Oh really open. Oh, it's okay. It's always X this fault. Don't worry about it. I can very fine now. Yeah. Did you join the telegram? Yeah, I joined. I'm in. Yeah, I'm nice right there. But yeah, guys, looking forward to seeing you guys there. I'm just going to take a quick round through some of the names here just looking at your pictures because I always like to do that during spaces. Kind of like to see what everyone's kind of art looks like. John, John, button, John Beaton. I see you. Nice picture man. I like it. You've also got crypto trader who also has a very sick picture. So yeah, man. Really, really like that. Obviously, there's a whole bunch more front man. Good to see you, man. I hope you're doing well. Always, always great seeing you here. And yeah, without further ado, so we have a couple of announcements to make guys. First of all, by the way, we do like actually, we love talking to the community and stuff, but just to kind of make sure if anyone doesn't have questions or feedback or comments or whatever, you can just hang around till the end. And then we usually open things up to the community for the thoughts and stuff like that after. So we'll do that just after the announcements that we have. Rome excited. Oh, yeah, man. I'm very excited. Ready to see what's going to happen. There's no. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. So soon enough, we're going to be, yeah, we're going to be having right after this space, actually, so announcement one kind of we will be having our kind of like new feature launch. And that's going to be called a treatment. So we kind of alluded to that last week in our last spaces. We talked about how we are building a platform or let's say rather a pool on our platform where there's going to be kind of like a direct link between tokens and NFTs, including hood market as well. But that kind of extends to any token and any creator wanting to launch an NFT collection for that token. So feature. I'll kind of run you guys through it just to make sure we cover the basics. And then if you guys still have questions, obviously, please feel free to kind of raise them after we kind of go through the announcement. So, yeah, so the tool, the utility is called treatment. It's going to be available on our marketplace. So like we said before, we're trying to centralize all our tools after like on the on the marketplace itself. And this is something that we try to do as much research as we could obviously, but it's something that we are proud to say we couldn't find on any other chain or any other marketplace currently as of right now. It might be, but it's super hard to find if it is. We tried to do our due diligence, but basically the goal is basically if you are a token owner. So I'm not talking about NFTs if you are like a deployer, the dev, the owner of a certain token. And I'm talking about obviously crypto token, then you are able to launch an NFT collection that can be minted by buys of your own token. For example, we'll just go with like hood market as an example because it's obviously simpler. So the hood market, quote unquote dev or token owner, if they already have their token live, for example, and they want to kind of bring some chart action to their token. And for example, they want to launch an NFT collection of let's say 100 NFTs. They can set a buy price or a mid price, so to speak for those NFTs. So for example, $20 for 100 NFTs per NFT, obviously. Then after $100 buys of $20 or higher, her buy, the collection would be minted. Now, so basically at each buy of equal or higher value, then the price per NFT will give the buyer an NFT. So the idea is like someone would say, well, like, why would I want to instead of like getting the mint fee into my wallet? And you still can obviously, why would I let's say want to do this? So if you're again a token owner and you want to do it this way, the buys and obviously we still have our kind of like main option, which obviously is to kind of just launch a collection or create a collection without or not through tradements. So both options are going to be there. It's not going to just be like this, of course. But the idea is for token owners to bring attention and chart action to your token. So you as a dev as the token owner as a deployer would be able to benefit from the volume and obviously buys, for example, on your chart to actually get those NFTs into your wallet for the buyers and the creator of the NFTs. So in this example, that would still be the token owner or the deployer would then be able to set their royalty fee and you would still get royalties on the trading phase after collection after minting. Sorry. So your NFTs would be minted. The buys would go into your chart and then after minting, it would go into NFT trading, which you would still be able to set your royalty fee and you would still benefit from royalties after minting. So you still get money into your wallet as a token owner or as a deployer, but also you're able to bring some chart action to your token. And in a way, it also links your token to the NFT collection, which is always nice. So in terms of what if the token owner or the dev doesn't want to launch a collection themselves or doesn't know how to do it or they're lazy or whatever, we've also added a feature where an external wallet, so a wallet that's not the deployer of a token or the owner of a token can actually launch a collection as well and link it to a different token if the token dev white lists that wallet. So there's going to be a white
