This is insane. This is one of the most thoughtful people. I know, let's clap it up for the legend pharrell, i'm a purebred entrepreneur for real, for real, for real, like documented. What's really exciting is we're teaching people the next opportunity.

You know a lot of things. What really has always attracted me to you is you've always been more thoughtful outside yourself. I think selflessness is a superpower and i think when people actually know how to balance their own selfish wants and needs, because the humans are human, with also having equal, if not more interest and selflessness, and i think that's a real strength of yours and i think The blockchain by nature is built for a lot of opportunity for people to help people and makes me happy when i say the word curiosity, where does that take you, curiosity is the life force in all of us, the minute that you stop being curious. That's it! Your life is over, it's actually the active ingredient to growth and not necessarily maturity right, because i'm a big kid i haven't figured out how to grow up yet, and i have four children and they're.

Looking at me like come on. Dad, like curiosity, is everything it's the key. I agree. I said in my opening keynote: i'm gon na push it again.

Please lean into the things that you might be curious about, but don't know people are so focused on being comfortable. So many people that lean introverted came up to me yesterday and say thank you for pushing on the discord and twitter and on your opening keynote. I actually made two or three new friends for real try to lean into places that are less comfortable or something a little bit different. What you're doing right now is super amazing, creating this platform for people to hear great ideas, great concepts and to feel welcome and to feel included for him to create this space.

For you, guys is amazing. Let's stand up for our guy. There was only one. There was only one made-up character in the friends world.

Only one the three-horned harpick, the trait of the three-horned heartbreak, is to be thoughtful. This is one of the most thoughtful people. I know, let's clap it up for the legend farrell. I know you came to see her, but i was really happy.

No, i didn't even see you hello. How are you, how are you doing? Have you slept a little a little doing an amazing job? Oh, my god, i just want to say that i got on tick tock because of you, because my friend wouldn't stop sending me your videos just do it and then now, i'm here with instagram to capture content, so full circle yeah, i'm so proud of you. Oh, thank you, everybody! That's! What happens when you actually do instead of talking yourself out of it in your own brain my hand is shaking. Thank you.

So much welcome. I'm so happy you're here. Truly this web 3's only been around for a hot. Second, we need to be open-minded to new people coming in and be kind and be nice to them.

You guys are great. Thank you, gary just look what you did take a moment hope you're enjoying it. I did thank you so much. Thank you.

Have a great hey, bro, you've inspired me to create grow and do my own. I open my own barber shop because of you i'm an educator. Now. Man like i lost my wife a couple years ago and you're into your content, changed everything from me.

I appreciate you glad you're here i apologize, i got ta run so much love you guys. Thank you guys. They ask you how you are. You just have to say that you're fine, when you're, not really fine.

I don't know fecon is changing the landscape, but i hope it's inspiring curiosity right, meaning, i hope other projects that are not even created and obviously the great ones that are in the ecosystem are saying: okay, there's v-con, they did this well, they did this not as Well, i have a take on this uh. Let me take advantage of the smart contract. I mean, i think, v-con and v-friends ambition from day one was to educate through execution, i'm incredibly happy with the sentiment of the first two days really from people. I respect i feel the sentiment is incredibly good.

There's you know, obviously just a lot of excitement around the content, but from the people in it getting the flowers matters to me. I hope it inspires good executions by other projects. My hope is that people are putting out 2023 versions for themselves that are better than the one i did this year. I have that same challenge for my own self.

What or who inspired the art behind the friends. I i think the biggest you know it's fun, because my mom's in the background in dover, new jersey, when we first came to america, i don't know how we got them, because i know we weren't buying stuff, so somebody either gave it to us or we found It there was these books called sweet pickles that i used to look at a lot and so between that and then my whole life, my whole life snorks and wuzzles and transform i'm i'm i'm 46 years old for us in our mid-40s. We got bombarded with intellectual property, like you know, darwin duck, and you know, and and all these suit the justice league and batman and he-man and all this stuff, and so it's just been such a big part of me. What do you feel is missing in terms of taking a solid step towards building assault community, two very clear things.

The reason most people struggle with building community is almost everybody who says they're. Building a community is actually trying to build customers they're not trying to build a community they want them to buy from. This. Is my community by the way buy this home? For me, this is my community buy this coffee.

For me, people trying to create customers building community only looks like one way you are giving more to them than you want from them, and most people can't do that. Most people aren't trying to build communities they're trying to use the word, but if you switch to, if you erase behind the word, it actually says customers. Thank you. Can you do me? One favor my friend got me this ticket because he shouted me out every day on your phone.

Yes, you said he was like dylan's awesome. You got to send him he's your biggest fan. Can you just say hey to him really quickly? I'm super upset juicifer, revving khan. We miss you both.

We married you a lot. No, i miss you more. Is it required? I didn't have recording i'm just sorry, just we're not going to believe this. We just made the best video of all time and your buddy here did not record it.

It was amazing. I said that i loved you more than him and this and that it was epic and yet it didn't record. So we have this second, try we miss you. We can't wait to see you at 2023..

I hope you're welcome. Oh my gosh, gary honestly, like this was the greatest experience of my life. I broke all my fears and i got to connect with seriously. There was like 45 people waiting to talk with me and it was like so meaningful they're trying to make it like we're done.
