Good morning for you, Janna. How are you feeling today? How are you doing?

energized somehow. What about you? How are you? How is being? How is the day?
I'm doing well. It was a good day. Yeah, it's 11 in the evening here. It's been a good day.
I'm happy with this Wednesday and I can't wait to get into swapping. I already see some familiar faces in the
crowd and I can't wait to get this party going. I know. Same. I'm actually, you know, Twitter is such a beautiful tool.
We love X. Sorry, Ilong. Right now I can't see the possibility to just retweet this space, which I was going to do a whole
entry here saying that it's for free. People should retweet and stuff. So I just going to be making a post and pin it in the top so
everybody can retweet that and we can bring more people in. Can you see the purple bottom in the right corner, Jory?
No, on my end, it's a blue one. I do see some people are having difficulties with hearing us. I see I'm getting some DMs like a con here, you.
So we'll let that work a little bit. Obviously, it's X is our favorite platform, which works 50% of the time.
So if, let's see, right? It's about 50% of the time. I know. All right, let me just ask the DM, okay, did you run?
Yeah, I did see kind of putting guys, come on. Let's put some hands up and down if you can hear us.
Well, if you cannot hear us, you cannot hear my instructions as well. So yeah, it's a complex. But can anyone see that can people hear us?

Yes, sir. One more second for this beautiful platter from that works 50 out of 50 times. Let's go.
Well, 50 out of 50 would be awesome though. No, yeah, yeah, yeah, I just realized no, 50% I meant which good, good rate.
I love it. Hey, Jana, you know, you know, we're going to talk about swapy today, right? So, um, let me fill everyone in here on a backstory of swapy.
So obviously, uh, swapy, as we know, it's the it's a mascot of uniswap, uniswap, obviously it's it's a platform where most of us and especially me when I came into crypto, I did all my trading on uniswap.
So it's one of the OGs in this space. Um, swapy is a mascot. As you can see, it has the
Pudgy with the with the Q unicorn headdress. Um, awesome enough. Uh, even unicorn, uh, unicorn, uniswap was even posting swapy again last week, which was awesome to see.
Um, I liked an erudive. Obviously, we're now doing a bunch of trading again on uniswap because it's connected to the Robinhood platform and, um, yeah, I answered me in a
Pazie tweeted about swapy like swapy is already such a well-known mascot in crypto and we have yet to see a project really taken on the swapy mascot in the best possible way, which is awesome.
And, uh, I can't wait to introduce Benjamin and the others of the team who are on this space as well, um, Benjamin, you're here. Uh, what really drew you to swapy. Uh, give us your thoughts a little bit.
How did you come into swapy? What really made you connect with the brand?
Hey, what's up, Joey? Can you all hear me again? Yeah.
You can't. Lovely to hear you on this one, Stacey. Yeah. Yeah.
I'm good to hear you too, Joey. Good to hear you too. Um, it's almost, it's almost Thursday for you. So, um, you know, for me, when I came in, um,
and interested in investing into swapy and ultimately getting a lot more involved in the growth of swapy because of the potential as a saw.
You know, what excited me about it was the fact that it didn't just have to be a meme. It didn't just have to be a mascot. It had capability to be literally a brand.
And that's what excites me. I mean, I'm a business guy. So, um, you know, crypto came into my life a couple of years ago, but the, the element of a building enterprise and building things that have a ton of potential that are exciting to engage in with. I mean, the fact that swapy has got a team at this point that engages promoters, community builders, business development. We even have a guy on here that is folks have heard before a deer that's basically an infrastructure.
And software architect genius. We have influencers like Jana and G and Joey you and the Empress coming on today. I mean, we've got the growth of the brand, the growth of the reach the brand.
And when I say the brand, the swapy girls, the swapy girls getting out into the public spaces. And ultimately, we did, we did see one.
And then we just get into the public space. You're going to hear more about that later. I'm actually from my side of understanding of stuff. I'm really proud of the team's execution to execute. We actually had a situation where a game was actually canceled.
And then we jumped on getting actual action to have a swapy girl present in that stadium. And it wasn't, it wasn't a paid thing. It was a relational thing, which is impressive because that's, that was to show everybody that she really is coming into the world.
I don't want to give away too much, but some more of that's going to be spoken of in about tonight. And more shall be, if seeing is believing for you, keep an eye out because in the next 24 you will, you will see what I'm talking about.
But ultimately, you know, as this thing brands out as it gets going, we've got the capability for merch. We've got the capability for, you know, cute little plushies that my daughter always tells me to call stuffy. So the business man, me calls it a plushie, she calls it a stuffy, whatever, as long as somebody squeezing them and enjoying them and walking around, they're doing their purpose.
So shirts, hats, all kinds of fun stuff. But the fact of matter is, swapy has been very attractive to back to Joey's point. And then I'm going to give the show over to these much more talented folks.
It's gotten the attention of major players, exchange players, other penguin players, let's say it that way.
There's just so much here that for me is exciting because I don't want to name other massive meme projects we've seen that go to, you know, massive existence and on exchanges and such. But I see all that potential in swapy. And that's why I continue to be engaged in it and trying to really support the team as a big investor into it and go in forward and just trying to help everybody rock to the best success on this because I just swapy to me has got epic potential to so many things and stuff.
That I know about to that has been seen that people are going to be really blown away with. So with that, I know you all got an awesome show tonight. Now I'll leave it to you all.
Let's go. Okay. A little bit of background here. Joey is not able to join this space as we have some technical problems here. But it's fine. You have me, which, yeah, it's perfect. Look at this panel.
Oh my god. Oh my god. I love this pink, by the way, fat boy and me and Prasier also has heard background of pink. We're looking incredible here. So meanwhile, as we saw some technicalities. Sorry guys, this is still 70 in my time. I need to take more like five months of coffee. So I'm ready to go. Really. But anyway, let's keep going to show. Don't forget to read with the room, which I will ask you for so kind of.
For so kindly just go with right now is a blue bottom that you can see in the right corner. You're going to go there and just read with by posting that's going to be the same thing because you know, you know, it's just sometimes crazy and works not very well from time to time.
Let me say hello to this beautiful people. I'm so excited to hear from everyone. I also see some more people that I want to bring here. So my love crypto Empress. How are you today? My princess.
Hi, good afternoon. It is two 12 here in California. I am seriously super excited to be here with everybody and obviously to talk about sloppy and what they're doing. So thank you for having me. We do have a wonderful round table that I can't wait to just kind of hear people's perspective of why they got here.
And I am going to be pinning the giveaway that I was going to do. I did extended guys. So I will put that on the jungle tron to as well. You guys know me. I love to give back to the communities that support us and literally retweet some simple things like retweet like and comment and follow the whole panel here.
But thank you for having me. I just can't wait to get into this conversation.
It's a pleasure always listen from you. My love. You have all the energy possible. Thank you so much. I love listening for you always.
Gee, my love. How are you? I don't know exactly if it is morning afternoon or night for you, but how it's been the week so far.
Hi, so it is about like 5 p.m. in the evening. So we're just you know getting like everyone's getting off of work. So they're probably tuning in, which is great.
You know East Coast time everyone's kind of it seems like majority of the people are either East Coast West Coast. But either way, you know, it seems like a lot of people are in on US time zones.
So unfortunately, like you know, it's it's a struggle for people in UK. And you know, we may wake up to the messages and stuff. But I'm so excited to be here. I'm so excited to again, like bond with everyone and you know the origin story of how people got to where they are in the community is like is repeated over and over again.
So I really would like to hear just kind of what brings everyone here today. And you know swap, swap, obviously, I can't wait to just dive in. You know, let's go. Thank you, Gee, for being here. And yes, you know, it's always a struggle.
The more we grow as a brand, as a project, as a business overall, and as community, right, the crypto, we are global and so hard many times to get us together in the same time in a moment that let's say better for everyone right now. I'm living in Australia as well. So oh my god. I mean, it seems that it's a whole new world before in Brazil. It was like more US.
So yeah, it's been an experience, but I'm so happy everybody made the time to be here, which I appreciate so much.
Guys, let's keep saying some hello and I believe that we're going to be able to fix our issues in a second.
Cairo, my friend, how are you? I know it's horrible time for you because like 3 a.m. or something, but how it's been and thank you for joining.
