This game looked interesting. Was up there on some of the more higher recommended games, if you will, and I will throw myself back on there. We will begin to kind of get into it. Oh, why does it do that? Yes, I was looking at Super Grock. Does anybody know what Super Grock is? Oh, blues guy. What? You got pulled over by the police. When did that happen? Oh, man. Blues guy, you're gonna have to tell me about that. All right, guys. This is craftorld.gg. Craft the World Dash. All right. All right. Sorry. You can see it up here. Craft-world.gg. I don't really know anything about it. I connected my Ronin wallet to it. It's a burner wallet. So, don't everybody gasp at one [music] time. And this is how it starts. Like from this page here, right? You'll click

play in browser. And you don't even have to connect to wallet. I just went to settings and did it because it'll probably become relevant at some time. So, let's take a look at it. So, we fixed whatever that was, right? The game is out of sync with the server. I probably need to refresh it. I had loaded this up much, much earlier today when I was setting up the stream. But this is pretty much what I'm going to be going over. Where's all my people at? Melissa, are you here? It may be a little late for some people. I understand. All right. So, we fix whatever this is. Bro, put your hands where I can see it. That's real. Oh, yeah. They definitely say that. Little Canadian his pants. Well, I take it you're okay. I take it you're

all right. Ah, Melissa is here. I don't know how long it'll take for these gaming streams to catch on. The whole goal of these gaming streams is to kind of one go over tons of DeFi projects. I did connect a Ronin wallet to this, so obviously if I can do that, it has web 3 compatibility here, but also it is uh probably going to come with a different audience over time, right? And so we're going to hold down like this 10:15, 10:30 time slot here, but it's going to take a while to build it up. Anyways, I will just continue to debut different games because I think it's highly relevant for DeFi gaming that is. All right, so you got this little dinosaur, right? And he's like shoveling. Let's see. Can we zoom in? It's not really allowing me

to zoom in here. So when he shovels dirt, what do we get? get like a plant and plants turn into something else that we're building. >> It's It's a craft style game, right? I've been sitting in this chair way too long. >> Uh Blues Guy got away with a warning. No tail light. Yeah. >> Then we started chatting about the open border show. Okay. Okay. Well, that might have been your saving grace. They were like, "This guy's all right." Uh, after this stream, we'll chat about it. So, you unlocked mud. Uh, apparently the volume is going somewhere else. Oh, not what I want. Hopping in the settings in the background. and that way I can get the sound over to you guys when things happen before we kind of get into I don't know how much I'll call it

a tutorial, but it's definitely a I've never played this game before. This is what you would expect if if you played this game. That's what it is, right? It's that kind of tutorial. All right, so we make this guy dig. He gives us a plant, I guess. Then we get mud. And that mud gets mixed with or the dirt gets mixed with water and makes mud. And I guess we have to keep clicking on this little dinosaur to make him do stuff. Now we have mud. So we've graduated from dirt to mud to plants. All right. Almost kind of feels like a little bit uh what do you call that? Like an idol game, but I don't know if it is quite yet. Also, Melissa, shout out to you. You had posted something really interesting. How is that game

or like [music] minor? It looked like a game. You had posted it in DeFi gaming tab in the Discord. Link to the free Discord down in the chat and in the description. Uh how is that going? You saying you were mining a little bit of crypto there. I was considering maybe going over that tomorrow, but maybe you could tell me so far your interaction with it, right? >> I'm not exactly sure what the heck is going on. I wish I could zoom in a little bit. It's like so far away. Okay, so we got to use mud to upgrade here. All right, they definitely meet you where you're at. [sighs] >> Electrolytes needed that. All right. So, we go ahead and we got to keep this guy down here on the bottom. We got to keep him going. >>

And then we got to keep the operation going. Seems like everything kind of compounds on itself. >> Keep playing to unlock. Okay. So, I can't really even see how much it actually costs. Okay. So, I can upgrade with four mud. I can upgrade the earth mine. So, they do have some names to it. So, you mine some earth and then you're going to make mud with that earth by mixing the dirt with water. Seems pretty simple. It seems like a child could could make some mud. And then up at the top here, it looks like we have some kind of level. I see it goes up whenever whenever I collect this mud. I see it goes up. Then it looks like we have a few different things. Water, fire, and whatever this pixie dust looking stuff is, we haven't

got yet. And I think that highly educational stream followed by a gaming stream is is the way to go cuz a lot of real value, real learning almost like you were self-educating yourself in a self uh college style class except for uh the difference is you have to go figure it all out. Nobody puts it together for you or I put it together for you but for me nobody puts it together. Right. And then we can play some DeFi games. And that kind of [music] takes the edge off of the brain swelling that came from everything that I just learned. Melissa says, "I didn't know where to post it." Oh, no worries. The gaming is fine. It's not a game. I guess you buy mining uh machines that help you soul mine faster. You have quests. It's not bad.

Have you actually made anything from it? I'll debut pretty much anything. I might not put it in gaming, I guess. But aside from putting it in a different category, it's fine by me. Struggle hard in the building. He's got his popcorn. Thanks for always supporting me, Struggleahart. It it it actually means the world to me. Uh I hope that you know that. I probably don't say it enough. anybody's support, but especially the people who come back time after time again. So, this is just an interesting little game. I didn't know uh how I was going to feel about it. It's in the Ronin ecosystem, right? You can down you can actually download it in the Ronin wallet. You can straight up download the game. I didn't do that. Right. So, I think that the reason why it is the

way it is cuz it's built for mobile. I think this game is very much built to be a mobile game, but for the sake of streaming and having good microphone hooked up and all that stuff, I'm not going to stream it from my phone because I don't think it's going to look that great, right? Yes, very little, but it's something. Okay, very interesting. Uh, have you put like a decent amount of money into it? How much money would you say you put into that minor? By the way, if you want to know what we're talking about, go look in the Gamefi tab in the Discord and look for what Melissa posted about a mining game style thing. I don't know what to call it to be honest with you. All right, now we have some kind of upgrade here.

Let's go ahead and get that running. Ah, so we just have two. So, we can produce mud a lot faster, it seems like. Right. We need to automate these so I don't have to click them every time. That would be great. What is this? All right, we reach level three. We got 10 trophies. And we need 20 to unlock like a box, get some kind of reward. Now, is there any ability to earn any kind of crypto on this? I have no idea. That is part of the onchain experience. Of course, as we do the token autopsy, this is the onchain gaming section. Let's see, where is it at? I'm not saying it right. On the onchain arcade, right? I got to learn my own stuff a little bit better. I've just started doing this segment very recently. Right.

We used to have the DeFi gaming stuff or the web 3 gaming stuff, which is different than just any other gaming, right? uh all part of our regular show. And now I've split it up. It's going to take a little bit of time probably to get the traction running. I am posting it in a different category. I'm posting it in gaming category versus education. So that always messes with the algorithm a little bit. So if you're here, throw something in the comments. Let me know that you're here. Uh no, you don't have to put no money or wallet. It's free. Just sign up and get started. That's what I like to hear. Maybe I will debut that tomorrow. Now that I want to debut everything, I like I don't just start messing with it in the background cuz I

kind of want to show it to everybody. But it also means I kind of do it with everybody at one time. Kind of reminds me of the Kintara uh re, you know, review or tutorial that I did. Some Just because we do one doesn't always mean I'm going to love it, right? Sometimes I'm going to be like, "This sucks." But it's fair and it's honest review. I just feel bad that when like and then Canara like shouts me out and I'm like, "Uh, did you watch it though?" [laughter] Cuz I wasn't a fan. Not to be confused with Kendra, which we love. I like Kendra a lot. Interesting. So, you have to have so much dirt in order to activate these pumps [music] to make mud. Looks like we're Oh, we made it to level four. And we'll see

how far we go. I got at least an hour, if not maybe a little bit more, to do this. What to expect when you first start messing with this and what can you actually what can you do with it. It does look like there's other plots of lands in other places, but those seem to be much higher level. Uh, let's see. Oh, we got some more trophies. Looks like we're going to be able to open a box here. Uh, it's just makes things go faster. All right, we'll probably sit on those. We don't want to use those all at once now. And it's like somewhat idle game, but like at the same time, you still have to do stuff. That's crazy that you got pulled over, blues guy. Don't uh don't drive at night. I assume it was late

at night that they pulled you over cuz most of the time they wouldn't really be able to see or pay attention that you don't have tail light. Bang. So now we need what? 200 mud. Looks like we've unlocked the next area. So that's moving along pretty quickly. So then we have clay. So you take the mud. What are we going to mix it with there? Uh, more water. That's what it looks like. Just mixing it with more water. Hey, we don't It doesn't have to make sense, right? As long as it makes dollars, it doesn't have to make sense. Little Sean Norm bar. Muddy Water, Florida's finest blues. Right. I do know what you're talking about. Don't want to waste my speed boost right now. All right, so Clay moves the needle a lot more and we can upgrade

this. It's an interesting concept. I mean, it's fun because it's a concept that's obviously been done before. Crafting is not new, right? But at the same time, uh, they have done it a little bit of a different way than what I've seen before. Usually, you have to run around and like pick up the stuff. Here you have more of like a supply chain, right? And you got some other things here, but you kind of need more levels here to unlock stuff. Looks like we got some upgrades that we could get into here. Look, like we're going to get to open this box. Hopefully, we're going to get something better than just time speed ups, right? More time speed ups. Okay. Apparently, that's the most uh valuable stuff we could get here. All right. Brain swelling, right? And this is

in this is in multiple places. You can play it I think without even connecting a wallet. But I connected this to Ronin wallet. And when I open my Ronin wallet, it said, "Hey, you want to download this in your Ronin wallet." So you apparently can just straight download this game in Ronin wallet. It's craft.world.gg. Also just craftworld. was hoping nobody would get confused by World of Claude Craft, which we have done a review of, right, which I think is a pretty awesome uh web 3 game. And of course, at Underground Crypto, for those who may not know me, because I'm posting in kind of a different category here under gaming, uh this is web 3 gaming, which we are all about, and you will find many tutorials of many other things. What is the difference between web 3 gaming

or DeFi gaming? uh is that you actually own uh assets and things in the form of NFTTS that in traditional gaming you just don't have any ownership of. So it's certainly something to keep in mind. Guess I'm going to just start using these things cuz otherwise what's the point of having them if we never use them? How come I can only like Okay, I'm like I want to be able to activate both of these is ridiculous. How come I can only activate one at a time? Oh, okay. I can activate both. All right. I'm confusing myself here. So, we got mud. We make mud into clay. We use the clay. We've unlocked the next step here. But we can use the clay to upgrade our earth mine. It's still under, I think, two times production. So, we want to

keep that rolling. Wish it would kind of automatically pass on here. And we unlocked a new area. Trying to get to level six here. Now there's sand. mud. Obviously, as you keep unlocking stuff, you kind of got a lot of things you got to click on. All right. So, what how much mud do we need here? Uh, we need three mud. And it seems like this just kind of goes on and so forth, right? just continues. But let's see how far we can make it in say a little over an hour. And for most of the time, I'm going to be picking kind of a a game web 3 DeFi game to go over. and DeFi Fridays is is probably one of the main times that we'll just play kind of multiple different DeFi games, a lot of the

crowd favorite stuff like that. But we want to keep broadening our horizon and seeing where there could be any opportunity for sure and of course just have a little bit of fun after so much education. All right, so we finally got the sand going. I have a feeling that sand's going to be worth a lot. of points when it comes to leveling up. Oh, no more ads. They want you to pay $18. No way. And you can install the app. I'm good. I'm on web. I'm not on mobile. I'm on my computer. Got to keep everything running here. Can't have any stall in production, right? Struggle hard. Thanks for being here. And you know, it's funny. Doing this gaming stream really reminds me of when I started my other stream. It's a slow grind at first. And the people

who come to my education, crypto education stream, the token autopsy, all that stuff for all that we've done so far, uh, you know, there are certain audience and some of them may have interest in this, some probably have no interest in this. I'll be honest, this game is a little bit simple. All right. Um, I probably should have investigated it a little bit more. Usually when a game is kind of made for mobile, they're a little bit more simple and not so run around and do this and do that like Kindra or World of Cloudcraft or all the other games that we play, right? So, I think I'm going to try to uh make sure we get a little bit better games, but this is kind of interesting. And what do you ultimately get out of it? I have

no idea. I do like that if you have like Ronin wallet downloaded uh on your phone or something, you could just download this game directly into it and so you could play the game directly in it. Does it ever get to a point where like there's competition or a leaderboard or like any kind of anything that you could actually like win? I don't know. That's kind of what I'm hoping for. But it could just be as simple honestly as a game and that's that. All right, we don't need to use those. Everything seems to be running pretty smoothly here. Wow, this takes a long time to do. If I'm using these anywhere, I'm using them up there. Uh, no thank you. Thanks for the random ad. I don't really want to uh pay money. I want to make money

if possible. Get that upgraded. We do need to use one on the earth miner. Oh my goodness. Now what's going on? We just like went to the underworld or something. All right. So, apparently there is a little bit more to this game. Oh, that what they want you to watch an ad. No more ads. No, I but I I I wanted the ad. No, I don't. What? It's like watch an ad for a free thing and then you click it and it's like pay for no ads. It's like wait, but you wanted me to watch the ad. Very confusing. get some more points here. All right, so you have craft, you have your base, which is apparently going to take an hour to unlock. All right, let's keep this going. Got to go from the bottom up here. Keep

this running. That boost is not really effective if uh it's not doing anything, is it? Please smash that like button as I continue to try to just do more content and more value for you guys. I will give these gaming streams some time before I decide how valuable or not value. Tonight's game is pretty simple mobile game. All right. So, I'm I'm looking up in the background if there's any ability to earn crypto in this game. Let's find out. All right. Then we got kind of daily quests here. We got at least one chest to open and it's just more time things. So, I guess time boost is like the best we could hope for. I don't know what other upgrades there really are here. All those are level four. So, to I guess that's what we upgrade. Start

with the middle one here. So, as you go up, you need the higher level stuff to actually upgrade your stuff. Wish I could zoom in more. I think I've said that about four or five times. Got that mute button just in time. All right. So, here's some information that I got. Right. So, yes, you can earn tradable crypto in CraftWorld. I don't know what tradeable crypto is. That doesn't make any sense. Way to go, chat GBT. But it's an economic game, not a guaranteed play to earn income. How it works, right? [music] So, produce and sell resources. Materials you gather and manufacture are tokenbacked assets on Ronin. Okay, so the materials that you're gathering and manufacturing are actual tokenbacked assets on Ronin. All right, so this actually might be far more interesting than I realized. Excess resources can be

traded through the in-game exchange for Dinocoin. So there is a coin associated with it. Using live katana decentralized exchange liquidity. You have masterpieces and events. So contributing resources to community projects can earn dino dino coins, NFTts, workers boosts, and other rewards. The exact prize change with each event. Market trading. Players can potentially profit by producing materials that are in demand or buying and selling resources as exchange prices fluctuate. liquidity pools, right? Advanced players can provide Dinocoin paired with other assets to receive a portion of trading fees. This requires depositing capital and includes impermanent loss and token price risk. That's probably something I would not be interested in, but productive NFTts. So, water and fire dino NFTs can generate scarce resources that may be used or sold, but this requires purchasing an NFT first. The important catch here is you

must play for free to accumulate Dinocoin. But withdrawing Dinocoin from the game into external wallet requires paid pro account. Okay, so that's problematic. The exchange historically unlocks around level 12. Confirm the current pro price and reward requirements inside the game because they may change since the launch. So Dino Coin also has uncapped utility focused supply. There's no guaranteed price appreciation or guaranteed returns. A beginner production may be worth less than a pro account needed to withdraw it. So, there's some potential there in the very high levels it seems like, [cough and clears throat] but you might want to be careful on how much you would be willing to invest in something like this because there's zero guarantee of any kind of return. Always keep that in mind. Uh, I feel like I have so many multipliers. Where do they

all go? Maybe they're not all good for everything. Looks like the ad boosts and stuff are really only for mobile. Oh, now I got to get six to turn two. All right. All right. And things take longer and longer as you go. Here we want to upgrade this one to level five. And of course, we're trying to get to like level 10 or 12. Looks like we made it to 100. We get another box. Instantly recharge 100% of power. I don't even know what that means. And this thing seems like it's going to take quite some time. I don't have whatever currency it is that you use. So, this is interesting. This base down here, I think it's going to be quite some time before I get to check that out. Looks like as beginner gaming stuff, you kind

of come in here and I'll I'll show this here and there when it comes to our DeFi gaming. I'll talk about what we've been doing this week. You know, that kind of stuff. All right, let's use this boost on our stuff up here. Make sure we keep everything moving. See if we can unlock that next area at level 10. We're at level six, so we got some ways to go here. So, there is some potential here. That's what I like to hear. At first, I didn't think there was going to be any potential here, but there are NFTTS. And these resources are like the sand and the mud and stuff. They're actually tokenbacked resources. And there's a dino uh coin associated with it as well. So, that's actually far better than like I thought it was going to be,

right? So, that's a positive. It looked so simple at first. I was afraid there was going to be no real DeFi uh, you know, association with it. So, let's keep this thing running. No slowdown in production there, which is good. Oh, is that thing not even running? Oh, it just finished. Man, I thought we were getting multiple boosts. Doesn't seem that way. Then we have this this like power usage, which I don't really understand what that means. So, like we'll run out of like ability to do things because we'll just have too many things running and not enough power. I don't really get that. So, we'll need to upgrade this so we can keep cranking stuff out here. Looks like we're doing all right. Oh, wow. These use a lot. Like 84 at a time. It's pretty crazy. We

have a ton of sand, though. So, looks like we need to upgrade our sand here. And again, exploring these DeFi games really just takes the edge off of the night for uh all that goes into doing that token autopsy and the research that we do on this channel. Just a nice breath of fresh air and kind of a hangout. used to be the underground crypto hangout, right? And now we'll just hang out in a separate stream. But I wonder because I moved it into gaming category if less people will see it. I don't know if that's the right move or not. I'll have to do some research on that. Seems like you can't really use these boosts just anywhere you want them. It's kind of interesting. Keep that running. Dang. In the meantime though, keep racking up these trophies.

Got one box here. More times help us move a little bit quickly. In a lot of games, I save like everything for later down the line, but in this one, we're just going to use it all. Nice. So, we finally got our second thing here. All right, all those up to level five. Got to keep all these things running. Need to get to six mud to even run this thing. It's interesting. I wish it would kind of automate itself, but at that point then you don't do anything and that's I guess somewhat boring. I don't know. What do you guys think? If this just like kept everything going by itself, would that make the game less fun or more fun? All right, some sand. Need to get some upgrades higher up the chain here if I really want to

get this moving faster. Uh, we don't have any upgrade or any boosts. Let's see. Can we get one? All right. More of this energy production. Says we're like out of energy. I don't know. what that even means. Or when when are we using the energy? See, when I click this to go. Okay, I turn all these on. Yeah, that definitely hurts our energy. So, there's like a cap even on like how much you can even run stuff. That's I guess economic design, [music] you know, when you when you start to think like with most games, you wouldn't think about things like economics and how it runs because it doesn't matter because there's no real value anywhere. But when you think of these are actually tokenbacked assets. There is a token associated with the game and things and economics become

highly important. if there's some money in treasury for the game and stuff like you don't want people to be able to just basically take it all for nothing and destroy the game and at the same time you want to capture some value so that people think that the game is worth playing. If the token is worth nothing then people don't really care to play your game right incentivize. So all these things become highly important. You can get NFTts to help you out. You can earn the actual dino token associated with it just from playing the game apparently by selling the resources as you get higher level. Apparently around level uh 12 you unlock like the actual markets and stuff where you can do that. That's what I was reading. What do I need to upgrade this five sand? All

right, that's what we need here. keep these things going. Do we have a boost that we could use on this? No, we do not. Let's go to shop. Yeah, you can't do any ads. I think the ads are only for mobile. And we are in the web browser here, but I do have my Ronin wallet connected. And you can see how it just builds on itself. And you can certainly infer what happens as you continue here. You just get different resources that make more resources. Just keep upgrading them as you go. It's an interesting little project. Seems like any actual value capture for yourself. I'm using words from the token autopsy here, but any ability to actually turn this into anything is only going to come from higher level. But according to what I was reading, in order to

actually withdraw any of the like dino tokens, you have to have like a pro account, which is where they get you because you're going to probably pay money and that's going to absolutely annihilate any of any of the uh value that you were able to capture, any profit that you were able to capture is probably going to be annihilated by whatever you have to pay for the pro. So you probably have you probably pay for the pro. This is my assumption. You probably pay for the pro in Dino token and you probably only make about enough to pay for the pro. That therefore keeps money in the ecosystem. It's good tokconomics, but not really good if you're somebody who thought that they were going to play this and like really make out like a bandit with a bunch of

money. Then you're going to realize that's probably not going to happen. We'll do the research for you. This is underground crypto. So, and it's going to obviously take more than like an hour of an intro to this game to find out if you can actually get anything out of it. So, you'll have to come back to the channel over and over. Tomorrow is Wednesday, then Thursday, but Friday is DeFi Friday where we kind of recap everything and play a lot of crowd favorites. I'm going to try to make D5 Friday this week a much longer stream because we got a lot of stuff to go over. Need like a really good recap of all the games, right? I don't know. Is it bad if I crack my neck like on stream? Does that look crazy when I do that

or is everybody do that and it's uh very normal? Is it normal or not normal? You guys will have to tell me here. I figure we keep boosting the earth guy at the bottom because everything seems to come from that, right? So, what does this need now? Now, you need 15 dirt to get this thing going, but you get a lot more sand, so I think that's worth it. And of course, it's meant to be a fun thing, guys. Don't please don't look at it like I think playing these DeFi games is going to make you a ton of money. Uh, in some cases, there are some that can. that Lumina token has potential to do ridiculous numbers off of its tokconomics, but a a game like this doesn't seem to have that same thing going on. But we

should go check out the token here for sure. See, now we're like out of energy, which is kind of a crazy concept to me. So, there's like only so much you can actually do and then you kind of have to stop playing. That just doesn't seem like a good idea for a game, right? Where you just get like st like, "Sorry, come back. Come back. I know you're having fun right now playing our game, but like try to remember to come back at a different time and have fun with it." It's like that's not really good for retention. Everything is attention economy. Everything is retention. Retention. Retention. Retention. [music] Like youtubing. Uh getting people to stay on stream and hang out with me. Well, that's called retention. And that's what YouTube looks at. So, speaking of retention, uh I

turned off the ad revenue. That's what retention is really good for is making money off ads. It's a little bit of money, but it's not a lot of money. And yes, you've heard me say this several times, but you know what? I am not really shy about saying, "Hey, it's $3 to buy a membership on the stream. You get custom emojis. You get videos before they come out. You get all kinds of perks, right? As many perks as I could put together for you. And there's different tiers. cuz you could obviously drop more than $3 to support the channel if you really love crypto in what I'm doing and want to support the growth. But $3 support the growth and that keeps me from having to serve ads cuz uh we're trying this as an experiment to see how

people do. I I always can turn the ads back on. Not that I'm trying to like threaten anybody because that's silly, but I'm just saying if it doesn't work out long term, I'll have to turn the ads back on. And it is what it is. And also quite obvious, right? Because as much as I love to do this, you know, some people get the impression that you should just be able to give all your time to something like a crypto channel like this or a YouTube channel in general uh for free. It's like, no, no, I have I got three kids and I have to, you know, pay my bills and stuff like it doesn't quite work like that. Uh, if you appreciate things in life, like you should think about supporting them or they won't exist. And I'm

not trying to go on a long tangent here, but it's just a fact of life. Like, if you love your favorite local newspaper and everybody switched to other things, you might want to think about subscribing to your local newspaper if you want them to exist and still make news articles for you to read. If you don't care about that, then don't support them and they'll probably go under just like almost every newspaper, physical newspaper especially, just as an example. Anyways guys, I appreciate all the support and this is a tiny stream. I don't really expect anything on it, but hey, maybe somebody will watch this later and appreciate the time spent looking for opportunities out there. We look for opportunities in a lot of different places, honestly. Some of it's in DeFi gaming, some of it's in the game

itself, some of it's just in the tokconomics and the way that the game is built. Some of it is, of course, in our token autopsies and things as we figure out which tokens have good value [music] capture and ability to go up, right? We are out of boosts, but we do have some more trophies to collect. So, hopefully we'll get some more boosts here. All right, cool. We got two boxes at once. Good thing we got more power because we are just absolutely burning through power. It's kind of wild. Every time you start one of these machines, apparently, we use a ton of power. And then it probably does slowly accumulate back up over time. Does it tell us? No, there's no like ticker where it ticks down. Well, this is how far we've gotten in Well, we're not

quite at an hour yet, but this is almost an hour. We've gotten to about level eight, which isn't bad. I'm hoping to get to at least level 10 or 12 hopefully and unlock some of these markets here and other things. I don't think I'm going to be able to wait like a whole another 36 minutes, but who knows? Maybe we'll still be streaming at that point. Oh, wow. So, we do have some from up here. So, these boosts are uh kind of just for wherever, I guess. Like, you can't just use them anywhere. Oh, no. I just got the boost. That's what it was. I was like, I didn't have any boost a minute ago. That's what it is. We seem to have plenty of mud and things. Dang. Oh, it was a a 5x, but it was only

a one minute boost, huh? Well, let's use like a fivem minute boost. No point in sitting on these boosts for no reason. Keep them going. See how there's no boost for that? No boost for that. But if we come down here, we do have a boost for that one. So, it's only a mining boost. Takes a lot to start these things now. We definitely need to use our power pack here. And that's all we have for power packs. Keep these upgraded. And as we get a bunch more sand much quickly, we can actually start upgrading things. Look at that earth miner go. Hype in the chat. Exactly. Run it up, everybody. Just throw some things in the chat. It'll attract some more people. I mean, a lot of people probably are like, "Why are you streaming this game?" Cuz

they don't know anything about DeFi gaming or web gaming. You know what I mean? There is value here. There is a coin associated with it. Soon as our boosts wear off, I will show it. While I got these boosts going, I kind of have to pay attention. Otherwise, I just waste them. So, in a minute, I'll pull up the cryptocoin associated with it. All of these different assets are actually tokenbased assets, right? There is a marketplace. There's buy low, sell high kind of stuff, you know, going on. There's there's opportunity for money. Is it the best opportunity? I don't know. probably not probably only in like the highest levels or if you invest some money into it, right? But there's also liquidity pools when you get up into the higher levels and stuff and you have quite a bit

of the dino token or something, you can actually uh stake it to liquidity pools and things and earn uh money off of the fees and stuff that are associated with the trading. So, there are some ways to earn But we just started this game and we're two minutes from an hour here of playing or at least since I started the stream, right? Maybe like six or seven minutes if you want to be real specific since I actually started playing it. And we're already at level eight, you know, moving towards that level nine. I'd like to get to at least level 10 before we conclude this. Not saying I will conclude it at level 10, but let's just see how far we get. But from from from what I read, it seems like level 12 is maybe where we unlock

some stuff as far as like marketplaces and stuff like that. Kind of want to see that. Would like to show that on air. Man, this was like the best multiple I've had in a long time. 5x and it just ended. So, that one's done. This one's still going. We got to keep that thing going. Sand takes like forever to make here. I level nine. Will actually looks like get another sand making machine. So that would be helpful. And we're getting close. 4.2K when out of 5k. It's good. These smaller resources don't really move the needle very much like uh that sand does. I like that you don't have to wait for it to be finished to get it right. It'll just throw you a little bit. Man, we just got a 300 power and and we're already out of

power. So, I guess we got a lot. Yeah. And you need 20. This part's kind of dumb because it just slows you down. And it's like, "Oh, you like playing the game? Well, sorry. You don't have any power." It's like, "What are we talking about? There's no power in the game." But I guess they need to slow you down a little bit so you don't move up the rank and up the levels too quickly. Just kind of annoying because I literally have a boost on and and it's not doing anything because I don't have power. It's stupid. And I call them as I see them, that's for sure. So, we're like out of power on everything, which is just doesn't make any sense to me to be honest with you. [music] So, we reached level 9 and now we

have this other thing, but doesn't seem like it can really do much either without power. Very interesting. All right, let's go to Coin Gecko. Shout out to the token autopsy we had just did. Evening. Welcome in. Welcome in. Thanks for being here. And let's talk about uh let's see, let me make sure I am spelling this right. What's the name of the coin? Huh? This is why we got to double check whatever we read, too. Is this it? I have no idea if this is it. It's obviously like a very small coin. I might have picked a very very very small game. Sometimes very small can mean opportunity for growth here. I don't know if this is it though. I don't know what this is. Very low liquidity. It just says dy if this is. Yeah, I don't think

this is where we need to be. Let's see if I can get something better here. Let's see if I can get a link for the actual dino token where it's pretty pointless book to be honest with you. I have so much stuff running. I am definitely stressing my computer out a little bit. Definitely got to give it a break when this is over. All right, let's get back to the game here. Just a second. If you're just running in, smash that like button for me. Uh we are kind of just trying a new game today as we do a lot of times after our educational stream. We just did our token autopsy, right? Where we break down does an ecosystem provide any value for the token at all? Aka what are the chances that the token actually goes up,

right? Uh we just did Hyperlid today. That was a lot of fun. Check out the channel. Subscribe if you would. Smash the like button. After our education stream, we tend to do an actual just defy web 3 gaming kind of thing. All of these resources are tokenbacked from what I've read. [music] And of course, there's NFTTS and there's high level you can use the liquidity pools. There's markets. You can buy and sell these different resources and make some dinocoin, the native currency. So, I bring you kind of a new game most days. We have plenty of crowd favorite coins that or coins crowd favorite games. Of course, there's coins associated with them because they're real real web 3. I can't even talk anymore. It's going for hours, right? But um the difference of course between DeFi and web 3

gaming is you have NFTTS and some kind of representation for the assets in game that you own where in traditional gaming you don't have anything. You have the most legendary item in a game doesn't really matter. can't sell it to anybody unless you're going to sell the account and that usually opens you up to a lot more things like losing your account, being banned, all of this different stuff. So, I like a world where it's embraced that you actually own your own and stuff. Getting a little lackey here. What's going on? I haven't had any problems all night and I don't usually have problems. But now we're at a point where this game where it's kind of like we don't have any power, you know? It's like what what are we done? And as I've said before, in where

everything is about like attention, retention, uh getting people to stay, not go somewhere else because everybody is competing for everybody's attention in such an extreme way and there's only so much attention, which is why the crypto lifer always says your most valuable asset is your time. Um, and everybody wants a piece of it, right? Well, why would you hit a point where they're like, "All right, you're done. You can't really play no more. Come try to remember to come back and play this game." But I have a feeling that the truth of the matter is it has a lot to do with economics and the flow of the game and and kind of slowing you down from being able to move too quickly through the game. But in an hour's time, which we just rolled into about an hour's

time, so it's kind of perfect. We've made it to level nine. and we do these introducing different games. Check out the channel. You'll find a lot of this stuff. Yeah, you're starting to lag. I see that. I don't know what that's about. I have no idea why we're lagging as nothing is really going on. Let's try not to touch anything for a minute. I'm always like opening and closing like a ton of different things. But anyways, this is about where I'm probably going to hop off, right? We did a little introduction and what to expect. We talked a lot about DeFi gaming and things like that. And uh hopefully somebody got introduced to the channel today. And hopefully some of the people who are highly into the education can take an edge off with some of the gaming and

some of the people who like the gaming can maybe get a little bit of education in the space of web 3 defy gaming and of course cryptocurrency. Always not financial advice, but research and to me raising that crypto IQ is what absolutely matters. I will catch you guys in the next one. I appreciate everybody. Of course, for some reason, when I'm about to end the stream, uh, tons of people start coming in the stream. I have no idea what that's about, but start from the beginning. If you just got here, consider one of those memberships. Smash the like button. All of our links are in the description, including our free Discord. And I think that pretty much covers everything that I really needed to tell you about. The the computer is being a little laggy. I I don't know

what the heck that's about. It just randomly started doing this. It's very annoying. But I'm going to go ahead and hop off. Everybody have a good night. It's like lagging. I like can't even get off of the stream, which is kind of crazy. It's all chat GBT. Like I searched something and it just like broke the computer. I don't have a crappy computer. I swear. Sometimes these things just don't work. I can't even end the stream. It's It's hilarious. What the All right, I do my best not to curse cuz apparently YouTube will limit your reach if you curse a lot. Not just like one cursing or two, but like if you're cursing a lot, they'll really limit your reach. But I am I'm starting to get highly annoyed with this because I can't even end the stream. Everything

has laggy for me. Has been laggy for me. Yeah. I don't know. Maybe Iran is attacking the web again. This is ridiculous though. Like this is super crazy. Absolutely stupid. Well, I guess we're here until I can uh get this computer to cooperate. This is pretty funny. I'm like a hostage on the stream who can't even end his own stream. All because I asked Chat GBT a question because that's when it started. You know something is just drastically not going right when you can't even open like control altdelete your task manager. Like you can't even get the task manager to open. Yeah. If I see the problem is if I unplug the PC from the outlet, I'm sure it'll kill like the video and everything, but it won't actually end the stream. So, like somewhere on YouTube, it'll just

be like a black screen and the stream will like continue to be going. And uh I prefer not to happen. I'll just cut this ending out, right? Like it didn't happen. Smash everything with a hammer. Melissa, you win for the best idea of the night. Um, really funny story since I'm stuck here. Hopefully I'm not lagging so bad you can't hear me. Uh, when I was young, I watched my grandfather smash many electronics with hammers. He was a carpenter, so he had hammers. He had lots of hammers [music] and uh, you know, printers, laptops, uh, internet modems. When they got to a certain point, they just got smashed. Like that was that. Come on. Work. Even the task manager is not responding. I hate when the task manager doesn't respond. It's not responding. So, you can't even use it.

And now there's like more people here than ever before. I love that. The joys of streaming. If you stream every day, something's going to go wrong. Somehow I do seem to still be coming through. This is fun. You know, this was like a unexpected bonus here. Ah, it's enough to drive you crazy. Has anybody ever seen the meme where they're like, "If you want to know if you should marry somebody, just see how they handle uh a computer with like dialup internet or something. You really get to see how they act when they're like frustrated." That's good dating advice right there. Set your significant other, your boyfriend, your girlfriend, hopefully you haven't married him yet, up with like a computer that runs super slow and then ask them to do something like highly important like some some banking or

something that really needs to be done quickly and then just see how they react. I don't know why it made me think of that, but there there's a small part of me that wants to punch my computer right now. I'm not going to do it because it doesn't make any sense. But it's there. It's there. It's in the background. I'm man enough to admit that I'm human. I kind of want to break this computer. And it would be a great excuse to buy the computer that I want that I have my eye on. Those who remember, I had a little bit of trouble with my charger for my computer at one point. And I thought I was going to have to buy a new computer. And as much as I didn't financially want to do that, it's like going

to be probably like two grand, um, a part of me still really wanted to buy a new computer. So, when I was able to like fix it, I was a little bummed. I kind of didn't want to fix it. I kind of just wanted to buy a new computer. Get more stream hours going. I used to be like that, says St. Do it. Punch it out. Melissa, such a violent Uh, bad influence. If I smash this computer, there will be probably like a week or two of no streaming because uh, well, it's probably take a minute for me to get a computer in here. Maybe not a week or two, but now I blame Windows 11. It's turds. Yeah. I It's so funny that we've done two streams. I've done so many had so much running and doing things

and then like I asked chat GBT a question and it just destroyed everything. Absolutely annihilated absolutely everything here. I'm in here trying to close like large programs. I'm like close trading view, close this, close that. Uh, and you never know, like if you click off out of this task manager, I may never get into where I have the live stream streaming from. Looks like I'm froze now. So, looks like uh looks like we're cooked. Boy, this is fun. All right. [sighs] Just close anything and everything. Yeah, it's uh definitely Google Chrome that's that's destroying everything here. Uh 9,000 megabytes with 92% of the memory. Got to love that. All right, things seem to be working better now. Had to free up some memory. Well, super long outro of me just fighting my computer. Luckily, I think that that is

hilarious. But it looks like I finally have freed up enough memory that I can end my own stream, maybe. All right. Somehow my stream is not even here anymore. That's fun. How did that happen? Yo, what? Somehow my stream is not even up. How would that have got closed, right? How would that have even closed in the first place? No idea. Yeah, I make it up because I don't want to leave you guys. We understand and love you, too. Hey, that's exactly what it is. You caught on so fast. I just didn't have anything else to talk about and we were out of power in the game, so I just made some stuff up so we could hang out. And the lagging, you see, that's not real. I I do that digitally with my computer. I have a program

that makes it look like I'm lagging so that I can fool everybody. Just kidding. All right, guys. I finally got it up in the background. Thanks for sticking here till the very end, you guys. Uh, I appreciate you so much. Underground Crypto out. Think long term. And we'll be back with another token autopsy. 8:30 p.m. New York time tomorrow. Be there and raise your crypto IQ. See you in the next one.
