So many people telling us that it took them months hours, days to put together their costumes. Min Over here and again, a lot of the energy starts to pick up as people get ready to go along the parade route. This is where all the fun starts. I'm Jolly Jacko he's Jolly Jacko I Don't stress oh no, oh no, the world is my upbe.

Rodeo hey hey I'm Jolly Jacko hey yo Jacko that's me So I'm building a Pokemon meet Sesame Street intellectual property called V Friends I've been wanting to build something like it for a long time and then when I saw the Nft thing was starting to mature I decided to launch the IP as an Nft while equally making videos that 99% of Nfts were going to go to zero like I'm all in on the macro be careful of the micro Pro but now I'm like very far along. If you go to eBay right now and type in V Friends, you'll be blown away with the pins and stickers and trading cards. I'm actively building a Marvel a Hello Kitty A Pokemon right now I Didn't really think 3 years ago that that's what I was going to do so I stayed very curious about a lot of things and then I act on it. but you have to be careful to not just follow a trend cuz you think it's a trend crypto this cannabis that he this.

you see those kind of people who are just always on to the next thing for me I am on to the next thing a lot but it's always fitting a strength or something I've been thinking about. hey Vlog uh right now you can see the team is kind of like prepping for this big Befs Halloween parade that we're doing here. It's an iconic New York City parade. We have a massive beend flow with Crocs we've got some Crocs on that have some jibbit on them that if it zooms in nicely you can tell those are vriends jibit.

So I'm excited about this quite a bit. This is just the behind the scenes of like actually building an intellectual property like this is step by step. Like when you say outlandish like I do like I'm I'm going to try to build a Marvel Disney Pokemon Sesame Street I mean takes 30 years these are big things like I drew these characters 3 years ago and now we have like a massive float at like the biggest New York City Halloween parade and so it's fun and it's Challen in and it's exciting and it's humbling.
