Behind the Mic
We are rug. And they're nowhere to be found. Right. Or they were ashamed. What is there to be ashamed about? If their wallets got hacked and they lost everything. It's okay if you make mistakes, but you should also, if you're confident in what you're doing, inform people so that people know. To help the community going forward. That's how you and I think. I agree with that. Not too many people have that kind of mindset. You mentioned nation states? Yes, nine days ago, right? I'm sorry, the NTA. Yes, they listed nine days ago. The listed 90? I’m sorry, I'm having trouble hearing you. Yes, nine days ago. Nine. Nine days? Yes. Yes. They posted their project nine days ago. Yes, that's correct. Yeah. I'm on desktop right now checking the project. I'm just seeing it now. They say it's a community takeover, but the founders, the devs, promised to talk to us. I guess it's not happening, right? Yeah, they're scared. They're scared or embarrassed or whatever. Could it be a hack of their wallet? Not at all. Why is that? It's a mathematical impossibility that 30 or 40 wallets are all syncing to the same location. No, but 30, 40 wallets can’t rug at the same exact time. No. Right. Think about it logically. Let's say somebody rugged my wallet. Normally, I have two or three wallets, and they access my account through a link, phone, laptop, iPad. They get into all my accounts. What about a reverse hack? No, the devs would know to move things manually. The devs would've promised a listing. So 30 or 40 devs, if they put out a hack, could be found out. Exactly, that's what I mean. But if they're all moving wallets at the same time… Yesterday, they posted they're still fixing the tools. It's scary. If you have faith in the project, you'll buy more. Yeah. I don’t know how many people know this was initially bootstrapped by a group of four to six people. Mistakes were made, but they still believe in the project. They need to keep the community informed. It’s not a competence issue, but a communication issue. They need to give updates every day. There's nothing wrong with that. Someone should correct me if I’m wrong, but I think one of the founders is in the group chat. Yeah, he is. If you scroll up, he said he can't keep up with the messages. Exactly. So maybe he's lying low because of the overload. Could be. Remember, there are four or maybe six people partnered. Two people are managing big wallets. If they’re sharing the same wallet… Did you read the new statement? I did. A lot of generic words without concrete facts. They should engage with the community on Discord. Just like how the developers discuss issues. The community takes action on what’s beneficial. There’s a trust factor. The community gives permission to act on their behalf. It's decentralized. Projects are coming to us for this. Exactly. We should be more responsible with updates. It gives confidence. People can then decide to invest more. It's a sign of confidence when they keep investing. Despite the rug, despite some negativity, people believe in long-term value. Absolutely. That's a sign of strength. Especially given the current market, people still have confidence. We need to support each other with clear communication. That will end negativity. Transparency always wins. That's my stance. You should always be transparent about issues, successes. Absolutely, couldn't agree more. If I mess up, I'd be honest about it. We're learning. So back to the wallets, if they were hacked… Devs need to protect against these. Modern-day hackers have sophisticated methods. Surveillance needed for wallets. It's complex but a necessary defense. The key becomes education about safeguarding against hacks. Regular updates include better security tools. Strong developer bond builds trust. Community engagement remains key. Imagine a board meeting where decisions are actively made and communicated. That's your blueprint. Exactly. It's a learning curve. The snapshot before a rug creates panic. They should manage and reassure the community. Absolutely agreed. Continuous updates foster a trustworthy environment. Look at our active community. Problems arise, and solutions follow. Yeah, a few missteps happened. But integrity is kept by addressing them transparently. It’s like a collaborative effort. Network strength is unity of the community. Definitely. How do you think that plays into survival? Right, resilience of dedicated people stands out. Consistency in development and interaction. That's the message: Transparency, updates, engagement. Enhances resilience. Got it. Like nation state efforts tying into community. They build channels for us in their Discord. It’s like outsourcing without losing touch. That way, we maintain and grow connections. Absolutely amazing teamwork. Continuous learning and support build the future. Absolutely. Fantastic to close spaces effectively. Topics get addressed timely. Keeps engagement high and informative. Karate cat? Engaged yet? No, maybe later. Fresh air is needed now. Thank you, everybody. Until later. Bye. Everyone, take care. Well, before we close, anything more to discuss or add? Community raids were noted. Tokens for art creators might help connect more. Continuous effort creates a thriving environment. Snowball effect keeps growing. Intriguing. Agreed, it’s the right approach. Let's keep advancing systematically. Agreed. Thank you. Disconnect for now but return for more engagement. Continuous progress ahead. Goodbye. Until next time. Bye.
