Now here's something we hope can really
like. You're listening to creating daily.
2
00:00:05.960 --> 00:00:09.240
There's something wrong with you. You
know that because you and I are like
3
00:00:09.279 --> 00:00:12.919
a mullets. It is the is
the business. So he's the front part
4
00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:15.960
of the HAIRCUTT and then I'm the
party in the back. I think they're
5
00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:24.199
hilarious. Speaks to me. It's
like he's saying what I'm thinking. All
6
00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:27.960
right, all right, what's up, everybody? I suck at live streaming.
7
00:00:28.120 --> 00:00:32.719
Let's just let it be known.
Welcome to another episode of creating daily.
8
00:00:32.799 --> 00:00:35.399
I'm your host, Billy Thorpe,
and I'm tell I'm going to nail
9
00:00:35.399 --> 00:00:38.960
this intro at some point. Trust
me, I'm going to nail it,
10
00:00:39.200 --> 00:00:41.880
but it's not going to be now. I always forget something or hit the
11
00:00:41.880 --> 00:00:45.399
wrong button and I got into the
music and forgot to turn it off and
12
00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:48.439
play the intro. But I got
all in there. So thanks for joining
13
00:00:48.439 --> 00:00:52.320
me. If you're hanging out over
in clubhouse from Bull Horn or youtube or
14
00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:58.159
twitch or facebook or Linkedin, I
added that as well. So welcome and
15
00:00:58.240 --> 00:01:02.200
appreciate you guys jumping in supporting the
show. It's going to be a lot
16
00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:06.879
of fun get my friend John Snyder
on today may be talking about NBA top
17
00:01:06.879 --> 00:01:11.400
shots, being a content creator around
nft's and top shots and things like that
18
00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:15.599
as well, and just kind of
dive into his journey a little bit.
19
00:01:15.079 --> 00:01:19.359
And then also got some really cool
creator highlights stuff coming up and a little
20
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:23.400
bit of news from Instagram as well. So anyway, I'll shut up now
21
00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:26.920
and we'll get and get into some
highlights. Creator highlights. New Cooking necessary
22
00:01:26.920 --> 00:01:34.079
and new assembly required. It's got
to be funck all right. So the
23
00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:38.319
Creator highlight today is brought to you
by my friends over at Maven coffee companies.
24
00:01:38.319 --> 00:01:41.079
You can go ahead and ditch it
old mass produced coffee, you know
25
00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:45.120
who I'm talking about, and get
some real small batch Colombian brew. This
26
00:01:45.159 --> 00:01:49.359
stuff is great. This is actually
the signature of you're watching this the signature
27
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:53.680
blend of maving coffee, my favorite
blend. So you can head over to
28
00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:59.400
maving COFFEECOM and check those guys out. They literally go work with these farms
29
00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:02.560
in Columbia on a one to one
basis. They're not the you know,
30
00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:07.480
no middle guy anything. They're going
they're testing the product, they're checking it
31
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:10.400
out, they're checking out the quality
of these farms and it's all small batch
32
00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:15.680
and literally some of the Farms they
work with have been voted number one coffee
33
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:20.319
in the world. So that is
pretty dope. In this highlight goes out
34
00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:23.520
to our friends over at across the
pond. So this is actually cross the
35
00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:27.919
pond sports and network. I think
the guy like six or seven shows over
36
00:02:27.960 --> 00:02:32.479
there now and they just dropped a
new one this week called the motor sport.
37
00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:37.840
So across the pond motor sport it's
really focus on well one. They
38
00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:40.120
get host from all of the world, but they're covering different things such as
39
00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:46.240
Formula One, Formula E, NASCAR, Indie car, all these fun things.
40
00:02:46.280 --> 00:02:50.759
Now I only know what Nascar and
Formula One are. I don't know
41
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:53.159
what Formula E is and it's like
the electric I got it. Just listen
42
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:55.400
to the PODCAST, but little.
In fact. I did grow up in
43
00:02:55.439 --> 00:03:01.439
Bristol, Tennessee in the fastest half
mile at the time, I remember.
44
00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:06.120
Anyway, whatever, just crack a
cold one, makes some left turns and
45
00:03:06.120 --> 00:03:07.039
here we go. It's going to
be a good time. So really appreciate
46
00:03:07.080 --> 00:03:13.000
everybody being here and then get a
little news for you. That's news to
47
00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:17.039
me. Creating daily all right.
We're going to jump into instagram today because
48
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:21.879
that's where my friend John Really creates. But first of all I want to
49
00:03:21.919 --> 00:03:25.560
just talk about an announcement that they
have made, which is that they are
50
00:03:25.599 --> 00:03:31.360
now going to allow users to tag
products and IG Post and they're going to
51
00:03:31.400 --> 00:03:35.319
start with the United States first and
then kind of work their way out.
52
00:03:35.759 --> 00:03:38.400
So I think this is an interesting
concept. I mean, maybe it's going
53
00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:42.960
to work, maybe it's can turn
into a dumpster fire. As most people
54
00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:46.560
know me there, they know I
like to help creators monetize. So I
55
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:49.199
think this is a pretty interesting way. Now I don't know how it all
56
00:03:49.240 --> 00:03:52.240
works out. I haven't seen it, but it would be neat if you're
57
00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:55.080
on there and you're talking about,
I don't know, makeup or hair accessories
58
00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:59.159
or your kids toys or maybe the
microphone. Like maybe take a picture of
59
00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:01.960
myself podcasting and now I tag this. Sure you know, Sims haven't be
60
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:04.960
in the in the post. I
don't know if that's how it's going to
61
00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:09.080
work or if it tags right to
the brands or to the brand websites.
62
00:04:09.879 --> 00:04:14.039
But if it works the way that
I believe it should, as we know,
63
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:17.040
that's the most important thing then I
think it'd be cool if you can
64
00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:23.360
take a picture, tag your affiliate
link withinside of the picture and then send
65
00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:27.839
people to your affiliate link and they
purchase and you make a small commission,
66
00:04:27.920 --> 00:04:30.959
all those kinds of things. I
think hopefully that story they're going to do
67
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:34.160
it. And if that is for
US creators, who are you know,
68
00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:38.680
instagram is part of our ecosystem.
We're putting stuff out there. This would
69
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:43.720
really, really cool opportunity for us
to use. The use that opportunity to
70
00:04:43.720 --> 00:04:46.519
say, Hey, check out this
microphone and then you tag sure in it
71
00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:49.240
you're part of affiliate program either like
on Amazon or wherever, and then you
72
00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:55.720
can track that data and then leverage
that data for a brand deal. So
73
00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:58.600
that's one of my you know,
one of my strategies that I try to
74
00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:01.040
use. If I can't get a
brand deal directly, try to use affiliate
75
00:05:01.079 --> 00:05:04.920
links. So maybe maybe this instagram
update is going to be just what we
76
00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:08.720
could use as creators. I don't
know. I mean most of the time
77
00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:12.160
it's like, Oh, who's a
benefit in instagram or the brand? Hopefully
78
00:05:12.199 --> 00:05:14.959
it will benefit the creator. And
then, while we're on the INSTAGRAM,
79
00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:17.000
note instagram. I know you're listening
to me, or maybe you'll hear this
80
00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:21.560
as I say it nearly every day. How about you allow some external video
81
00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:26.480
so I can stream the show to
your platform as well, because I'm on
82
00:05:26.519 --> 00:05:28.439
Bull Horn, which is awesome,
by the way. If you have to
83
00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:30.439
check out bull horn, if your
Creator, go over there. Bull Horn
84
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:38.800
Dot FM, bullhorn, Youtube,
twitch, facebook, Linkedin clubhouse. We
85
00:05:38.839 --> 00:05:43.079
are all over the place, but
we are not on instagram right now because
86
00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:45.680
they don't allow external video. Want, want, want, want. I
87
00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:47.079
guess some sound facts, but anyhow. So there you go. That is
88
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:51.879
your news from me. Not really
anything special in who knows, hopefully it's
89
00:05:51.920 --> 00:05:56.839
not going to be everyone's pictures is
as clickable links on there. You know,
90
00:05:56.920 --> 00:05:59.399
all that kind of stuff. Whatever. But Anyway, let's get down
91
00:05:59.439 --> 00:06:01.079
to the main and I'm going to
be bringing on my friend John Snyder.
92
00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:04.439
Were going to be talking about N
FFT top shots. So, John,
93
00:06:04.480 --> 00:06:09.800
welcome to the show, my friend. How are you doing? I'm good.
94
00:06:09.800 --> 00:06:12.439
How are you? Man? I'm
doing great. Man, appreciate you
95
00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:16.199
jumping in and being a part of
the show and wanting to yeah, come
96
00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:18.439
hang out with me for a few
minutes here. I'm trying to just find
97
00:06:18.480 --> 00:06:20.439
the here we go. I can. I want to look at you.
98
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:24.759
So I lost the screen there.
So, man, what in the heck
99
00:06:24.800 --> 00:06:27.279
have you been up to? We
were hanging out for a while. They're
100
00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:30.920
sometime last year and then, you
know, life happens, disconnects happened.
101
00:06:31.399 --> 00:06:35.399
What the heck is John Sneyder been
up to? Yeah, so, I
102
00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:38.920
mean, yeah, we met,
probably it's been almost a year, probably
103
00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:43.160
just under maybe, yeah, but
I'd quit my job that I was at
104
00:06:43.160 --> 00:06:46.920
for ten years really to become a
stay at home dad for the time being,
105
00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:49.600
and so in that time, though, I wanted to figure out some
106
00:06:49.639 --> 00:06:53.480
way to create, and so that's
why I got hooked up with you with
107
00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:57.560
podcasting, and it's now, like
you said in the Intro, it's evolved
108
00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:03.519
more towards instagram. Just trying to
figure it out right, and it's always
109
00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:09.040
changing, and so I'm just trying
to figure out what that looks like for
110
00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:12.920
me as a creator, because it's
not cookie cutter, I don't think.
111
00:07:13.040 --> 00:07:15.319
I mean, you know, everyone
creates differently. You know people try to
112
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:20.120
copy people and you know there are
a lot of similarities, but I just
113
00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:24.279
trying to figure that out and what
that looks like for me as a creator,
114
00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:28.959
and so I've got an instagram account
right now just called the layup.
115
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:31.319
That is the podcast. I have
some episodes on you could look it up
116
00:07:31.360 --> 00:07:36.600
and listen to some older episodes,
but I'm just trying to figure out that
117
00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:40.680
instagram space right now. Yeah,
man, you know, I think it's
118
00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:44.120
I think it's a good place to
be, because oftentimes, as creators,
119
00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:46.160
man, I mean you know this, like we're we're podcasts, we're trying
120
00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.360
to forge out instagram, which trying
figure out tick tock. We're trying for
121
00:07:48.399 --> 00:07:50.560
you on facebook, we're trying to
figure out, you know, whatever the
122
00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:57.279
next APP is, and oftentimes we're
left holding nothing, like with no audience,
123
00:07:57.319 --> 00:08:01.319
no community, because we're too far
stretched out. So I actually applaud
124
00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:05.360
you for taking a step back and
going what do I really enjoy? Oh,
125
00:08:05.399 --> 00:08:09.720
I enjoy making instagram reels and content
over there. So that's pretty cool
126
00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:13.000
then. So has that been like? You know, I know it changed.
127
00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:16.680
do it seems like instagram changes almost
daily. Weekly for sure, but
128
00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:20.959
feels like daily. What has been
some things that you've noticed that you've liked
129
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:26.680
about it in then, and then
I'll ask you another question. Yeah,
130
00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:31.399
I mean some of the changes like
I don't know if this is out everywhere,
131
00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:35.639
but I know and my account and
the top left I can click and
132
00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:39.120
I can see I can actually make
favorites now. So I have a favorite
133
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:43.600
list. So I basically with my
account it's a bunch of nft guys and
134
00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:48.720
NBA talk shot people and NBA players
and teams are under my favorites and so
135
00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:52.879
I can click that and just get
a run down of that and that's probably
136
00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:58.240
one thing I enjoy right now with
it and probably one of the best changes
137
00:08:58.240 --> 00:09:01.360
I've seen so far. And I
do what you were saying about the affiliate
138
00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:05.039
link coming, if that is a
thing. When you were talking I was
139
00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:09.440
like I hope it's affiliates and then
you mentioned it in so I think it's
140
00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:13.000
a hope right now, but that
would be an awesome change. Yeah,
141
00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:13.600
I mean I think it would be
cool. You know, and I think
142
00:09:13.639 --> 00:09:18.399
there's a lot of you know,
fill it stuff out there already, but
143
00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:22.000
it is you know, if when
they added the link to to Instagram,
144
00:09:22.000 --> 00:09:24.399
with all oh this is cool,
I now we can do a story and
145
00:09:24.519 --> 00:09:28.120
do a link in there and all
that kind of stuff. So I think
146
00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:31.360
that's a pretty cool move on their
part too. So we'll see what happens.
147
00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:35.200
But it's cool that you're focused on, you know, creating content on
148
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:41.240
instagram now. is now the content
that I see from the instagram account that
149
00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:46.399
I follow, which is a layup. Is that a hundred percent NBA top
150
00:09:46.440 --> 00:09:48.480
shots, a hundred percent sports,
or what's your like, Nich that you're
151
00:09:48.519 --> 00:09:54.679
going for? Yeah, so it's
funny. I you as a creator,
152
00:09:54.759 --> 00:09:58.639
especially if you trying to reach an
audience and make a community. The niche
153
00:09:58.639 --> 00:10:03.519
here it is, the better.
And so you know, I when I
154
00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:07.240
started this with you a year ago, I was all over the place and
155
00:10:07.320 --> 00:10:09.200
I got a niche down to basketball. Okay, what kind of basketball?
156
00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:15.879
NBA. And so now with my
instagram, it's like my reels are really
157
00:10:15.879 --> 00:10:20.159
more just NBA news or opinions,
but my content, like my carousels or
158
00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:24.440
my posts are going to be in
FT related. You know, as a
159
00:10:24.600 --> 00:10:28.919
sparely newer creator than in that space, I'm trying to figure out how to
160
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:33.720
make my reels more geared towards the
NBA top shot. So again trying to
161
00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:37.360
niche it down even further. But
there is some fun news I like to
162
00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:41.000
share out there that doesn't really have
to do with in a tease, but
163
00:10:41.879 --> 00:10:46.039
it just but for the most part, NBA. Yeah, I love you.
164
00:10:46.080 --> 00:10:48.919
Know, one thing I've enjoyed about
your channel or about watching on Instagram
165
00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:54.279
is like your reactions and how you're
you know, it's like you shock me
166
00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:56.679
sometimes because you're like, you know
what, everybody knows, I hate the
167
00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:58.559
Lakers. But then you're like hold, that's little lakers. I don't know
168
00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:03.320
who that was. It Kobe or
not? Kobe Bryant, Little Lebron James?
169
00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:05.240
Right? So, yeah, right, and so tell me that.
170
00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:07.519
What was the what was the story
behind that action figure? Again, I
171
00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:11.519
don't know if I really remember.
I just remember watching it going due.
172
00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:13.320
That's pretty funny, because you're like, I hate the only Legis, but
173
00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:18.120
I got this. Yeah, I
mean it was really just about Lebron and
174
00:11:18.159 --> 00:11:24.559
how he basically now is in his
own category with over tenzero assist, tenzero
175
00:11:24.799 --> 00:11:28.960
rebounds and tenzero points for his career. He basically invented his own category.
176
00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:35.080
And I I'm a collector of things, and so I bought this Lebron James
177
00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:39.720
like action figure a while ago and
that's that's really where that came from.
178
00:11:39.720 --> 00:11:43.879
And that's the other thing with experimenting
as a creator. Like I've been trying
179
00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:46.919
different things with my reels. So, like one of my reels I tried
180
00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:50.720
using a green screen. I have
a green screen. I did that with
181
00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:54.320
some video on the background and then
trying to bring in props and that kind
182
00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:56.919
of thing, just to see,
you know, really it's kind of testing,
183
00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:01.080
experimenting to see what what hits with
the audience, because, you know,
184
00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:07.519
I spent an hour making a real
using green screen editing it with some
185
00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:11.200
video behind it whatever. That was
like one of my worst reals ever.
186
00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:13.120
I think it has, you know, compared to some of my others,
187
00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:18.440
and then the Lebron James One,
it's my most viewed real and it's my
188
00:12:18.440 --> 00:12:20.799
most recent too. So I think, you know, getting more followers,
189
00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:24.279
more reach it that number, I
makes sense. I would go up,
190
00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:30.399
but I don't know. But just
that's yeah, yeah, no, I
191
00:12:30.440 --> 00:12:33.159
loved you in this. What I'm
doing too, right, I'm throwing mud,
192
00:12:33.240 --> 00:12:35.279
like creating daily like, Oh,
who thought about doing a daily show
193
00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:39.320
like that? So dumb, but
I always wanted to. So I'm like,
194
00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:41.159
you know what, I'm just gonna
do it. I'm just gonna do
195
00:12:41.200 --> 00:12:43.679
it. I've been talking about it
for a year, you know, and
196
00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:46.919
I wanted to do a different style
of show. But then my whole community
197
00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:52.240
is about creators, so I wanted
to continue that conversation about creativity and all
198
00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:56.120
that kind of stuff. So you
said that you were a collector of things
199
00:12:56.159 --> 00:13:00.039
in so let's let's dive into is. What are the some of the things
200
00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:03.759
that you physically collect? And then
I want to get into your digital collection,
201
00:13:03.799 --> 00:13:07.120
because I know that's what this whole
topic is about. Is NBA top
202
00:13:07.159 --> 00:13:11.440
shots. So it sounds like this
has been an addiction for a lot longer
203
00:13:11.480 --> 00:13:16.360
than when it in FT's and top
shots came out. Yeah, I mean
204
00:13:16.559 --> 00:13:18.720
as a kid, if you're a
sports fan, that you're going to collect
205
00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:24.159
sports cards. I mean I still
had my collection from when I was six,
206
00:13:24.200 --> 00:13:28.279
seventy eight years old. Wow,
basketball, baseball, football players as
207
00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:33.480
those are the main ones, and
so I mean I've been collecting physical sports
208
00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:39.039
cards forever. And then other things
that my wife says I collect shoes,
209
00:13:39.039 --> 00:13:41.480
but I have a lot of shoes, but I don't know if it's necessarily
210
00:13:41.519 --> 00:13:48.559
collection of like like there's some people
out there who collect like really expensive shoes
211
00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:52.559
that you could resell for a lot
of money or whatever. You know,
212
00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:56.639
that's kind of something I do with
in but just not for me. But
213
00:13:56.840 --> 00:14:00.639
it's really like those, those sports
cards, and I do collect legos.
214
00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:05.720
I've got some Lego sets that I'll
build and put on my shelf because it's
215
00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:09.399
pretty good. Yeah, and so
that's really the but that's where like this
216
00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:13.360
whole NPT thing started. I'm I
mean basically, you know, within n
217
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:18.159
be a top shot, it's a
digital sports card, is a way to
218
00:14:18.200 --> 00:14:20.039
look at it, okay, you
know, versus a physical one that you
219
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:24.559
can hold. And so that's why
I like in with sports cards. It's
220
00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:31.759
crazy, when the pandemic hit,
for some reason like sports cards took off
221
00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:35.360
as far as popularity and people collecting
them, and mainly it was NBA.
222
00:14:35.679 --> 00:14:39.840
I mean there's definitely baseball and football
cards out there that are worth a ton
223
00:14:39.879 --> 00:14:43.399
of money, but NBA cards.
For some reason, when the pandemic hit,
224
00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:46.759
people were like, Oh, let's
get back into collecting NBA cards,
225
00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:50.000
and about that time too, is
when NBA top shot took off, and
226
00:14:50.039 --> 00:14:54.200
so they kind of a related in
a way. But you know, like
227
00:14:54.240 --> 00:14:56.600
I said, one's physical, ones
digital. Okay, got you, min
228
00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:01.480
so now are you seeing is and
so well, I guess what I'll do
229
00:15:01.519 --> 00:15:03.000
is, like we'll kind of get
into that in a minute. But well,
230
00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:07.320
now ask you anyway. I'm trying
to stay structured here, John,
231
00:15:07.240 --> 00:15:09.360
do you know what? I'm throwing
it out the door. I don't care.
232
00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:13.159
I'm not going to stay structured.
If you so. Is there like
233
00:15:13.200 --> 00:15:18.879
any correlation between the physical in the
digital, like are you seeing like older
234
00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:26.080
baseball or basketball cards, NBA cards, now getting replicated in the digital form?
235
00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:30.799
Is that a thing? Really?
It might be happening. That's the
236
00:15:30.840 --> 00:15:33.279
thing that I should have specified.
Going from a physical card now to the
237
00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:39.360
digital card. They're actually their video
highlights. So I mean you can't definitely.
238
00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:43.679
You know, there's probably if there's
like a one of one Babe Ruth
239
00:15:43.759 --> 00:15:48.120
Card from whenever whatever, maybe you
could turn that also into an nfte kind
240
00:15:48.120 --> 00:15:52.000
of deal. But yeah, with
NBA top shots, you know, you
241
00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:56.679
go from your physical card that's just
a picture NBA top shots, their cards,
242
00:15:56.879 --> 00:16:00.399
their digital cards, they call moments. So it's a moment in time,
243
00:16:00.440 --> 00:16:03.639
it's a moment in a game because
it's Lebron James Dunking or you know,
244
00:16:03.799 --> 00:16:10.919
somebody else with a layup or a
block, and so that's where that
245
00:16:10.919 --> 00:16:14.480
that correlates and has changed from,
you know, a picture to you know,
246
00:16:14.559 --> 00:16:18.039
and there are in FT's that are
pictures, but with NBA top shot
247
00:16:18.080 --> 00:16:21.720
it's video specific. Okay, yeah, because you know, I think in
248
00:16:21.759 --> 00:16:25.720
my experience with the NFTS, I'm
a there's a guy on clubhouse on this
249
00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:29.559
APP called his name is Gary Henderson. He has draft tower. So I
250
00:16:29.559 --> 00:16:33.360
own a your raft I own it's
funny because I'm not a big sports fan.
251
00:16:33.399 --> 00:16:37.159
I don't know that much about sports. But actually there's a I can't
252
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:38.600
I think this guy plays for the
cardinals. I don't even know, but
253
00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:41.960
anyway, he has ann FT projects. I bowed into it. And then
254
00:16:42.000 --> 00:16:47.480
I have another one called like,
I can't remem like ghetto grannies or something.
255
00:16:47.519 --> 00:16:48.960
I thought it was pretty funny.
It's like these little pixel lady grannies,
256
00:16:49.360 --> 00:16:53.480
but they're all just pictures. They're
not any video. So so it
257
00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:56.240
does the this might sound like a
dumb question, which I told you.
258
00:16:56.320 --> 00:17:00.039
If I ask you really dumb question, just let me know. I know
259
00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:03.559
this is NBA top shots. Is
it owned by the NBA or is this
260
00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:10.079
like a licensing deal from two dudes
in their garage. It's a licensing deal.
261
00:17:10.559 --> 00:17:12.720
Dapper laughs, is who is behind
it. Okay, and so they
262
00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:19.519
actually have some other projects they're on. So like they have some UFC there,
263
00:17:19.559 --> 00:17:25.240
with UFC. Now trying to think
of the others, but they have
264
00:17:25.279 --> 00:17:29.440
some other other ones there, but
mainly NBA top shot, and it's a
265
00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:33.559
license deal with the NBA and it's
I don't know. It's really cool,
266
00:17:33.559 --> 00:17:37.359
though. How like the other night, like sometimes there was a moment that
267
00:17:37.400 --> 00:17:41.200
they release that you had to like
they have all these challenges for you to
268
00:17:41.200 --> 00:17:45.920
get certain cards, but they actually
released a moment ninety six hours after it
269
00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:51.559
happened in an NBA game, and
so that's the other cool thing about these.
270
00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:55.160
Like if you want to in a
physical card, you're gonna have to
271
00:17:55.160 --> 00:17:57.799
wait a little bit, right,
but with digital obviously you can turn around
272
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:02.039
and have something of the able,
you know, like I think that's probably
273
00:18:02.039 --> 00:18:04.799
the quickest they've done was ninety six
hours. Yeah, dude, that is
274
00:18:04.920 --> 00:18:07.319
fast, man. I you know, I guess I didn't even really think
275
00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:11.319
about that. It's like you do
have this moment Lebron James dunks on somebody
276
00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:15.480
there. But cool, you know, there's like exciting in then next thing
277
00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:18.960
you know, a couple few days
later you got this n FT dropping.
278
00:18:19.559 --> 00:18:26.559
So are those okay? So this
company's doing NBA, the doing some UFC
279
00:18:26.720 --> 00:18:30.160
stuff or the UF or all the
sports things, or they all moments or
280
00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:33.680
they all like kicks to the head
and knockouts, all that kind of stuff,
281
00:18:34.039 --> 00:18:37.440
because I have this look cool.
Yeah, yeah, I haven't looked
282
00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:41.160
at the UFC ones there. I'd
say they I mean, they've only probably
283
00:18:41.160 --> 00:18:45.200
been available a month or so.
I haven't looked into it. I should.
284
00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:48.160
I don't know if it's I'm guessing
it is video highlights, but I
285
00:18:48.200 --> 00:18:52.200
just don't know what kind of deals
they're doing and that kind of thing.
286
00:18:52.240 --> 00:18:57.799
But I wouldn't be I mean there's
so many UFC fans. So I feel
287
00:18:57.839 --> 00:19:02.400
like that will take off also.
And that's the thing within FT's if you've
288
00:19:02.400 --> 00:19:04.880
been watching the space, like they
blew up out of kind of out of
289
00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:11.880
nowhere, right, and so with
the NFT space and the way that it's
290
00:19:11.920 --> 00:19:15.319
just kind of blown up, I
feel like there's going to be just like
291
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:18.680
with anything though, like you're going
to see some of them make it and
292
00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:21.319
then some of them are never going
to hear about again, right, yeah,
293
00:19:21.880 --> 00:19:23.799
like I compared to like when I
probably like I don't know how long
294
00:19:23.839 --> 00:19:27.519
ago it was, fifteen years ago, there was a big like fro Yo
295
00:19:27.720 --> 00:19:30.400
craze, right, the frozen you
were crazy. Yeah. Yeah, I
296
00:19:30.400 --> 00:19:33.839
don't know about where you live,
but here in southern California, like there
297
00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:37.759
was one called peak burry, and
when that thing opened, it was like
298
00:19:37.839 --> 00:19:40.359
all these others are like, oh, we can do frozen Yogur we can
299
00:19:40.400 --> 00:19:44.799
do frozen yogurt, and since then
there were probably like ten different ones that
300
00:19:44.799 --> 00:19:48.119
you would see just driving to the
grocery store, you know, and so
301
00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:51.400
you know, the cream of the
crop. It rose, and so the
302
00:19:51.400 --> 00:19:55.160
other ones you never heard about again. They maybe lasted six months. And
303
00:19:55.200 --> 00:19:59.720
I feel like within FT's and those
projects, there's going to be some that
304
00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:03.680
are around for a while and some
that are just not going to make it.
305
00:20:03.680 --> 00:20:06.720
And so, whatever the reason might
be with popularity and that kind of
306
00:20:06.720 --> 00:20:08.799
thing, like I don't know if
you've heard of like board a yacht club.
307
00:20:08.839 --> 00:20:12.720
Oh sure, yeah, yeah,
I mean that's like if you're any
308
00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:15.359
familiar with an FT's, that might
be one you've heard of. And so
309
00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:21.559
like that's insane. What prices are
going for. Yeah, it's insane,
310
00:20:21.519 --> 00:20:22.559
you know, like some of them
are going to stay and then some of
311
00:20:22.599 --> 00:20:26.880
them will just kind of disappear.
So so within bea top shots man,
312
00:20:26.920 --> 00:20:32.720
like how do you value? And
once again, just to put this out
313
00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:36.960
there, this is not like financial
advice from John or myself. If you
314
00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:40.960
invest in these, you know,
be prepared only invest what you can lose.
315
00:20:41.079 --> 00:20:42.839
Like there, I don't that's still
not financial advice. So don't even
316
00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:47.279
listen to me about that. But
you know, if you go empty your
317
00:20:47.359 --> 00:20:52.160
kids college savings count to buy enought's, like you're just an idiot. So
318
00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:56.559
don't, don't do that. But
if you are shopping, so now is
319
00:20:56.640 --> 00:21:00.960
jump over to can like consumer side. I'm a sports fan. I know
320
00:21:00.000 --> 00:21:04.359
a lot about sports. I'm watching
weekly stuff. I'm maybe even anticipating a
321
00:21:04.440 --> 00:21:08.720
big dunk coming out. Isn't enought. How are you shopping for these men?
322
00:21:08.839 --> 00:21:14.640
Is it just on on this like
NBA top shots website, or what
323
00:21:14.920 --> 00:21:18.400
I mean? Walk me through the
process, like I don't know anything.
324
00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:21.480
I kind of like sports. How
do I go get them? And right
325
00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:25.880
way? Yeah, decide what to
buy right and that. Yeah, with
326
00:21:25.920 --> 00:21:29.880
and the thing with NBA top shot. Yeah, so it's NBA top shotcom.
327
00:21:29.920 --> 00:21:32.880
You go on, you create an
account. The cool thing too,
328
00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:37.400
about NBA top shot is you can
use a credit card to buy an apts,
329
00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:41.400
because I know some of these inn
FT projects you can only buy with
330
00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:45.839
etherium or another bit or Bitcoin or
another coin, but I guess it's really
331
00:21:45.880 --> 00:21:48.519
a theory ummer whatever. But with
NBA top shot, create an account,
332
00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:52.839
set up a credit card, like
I just you can use your Google Account,
333
00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:57.200
which makes it super easy, and
so you go on there trede an
334
00:21:57.200 --> 00:22:03.279
account and there's two real really two
ways you can purchase top shots. The
335
00:22:03.359 --> 00:22:07.640
moments. One is they release packs
just about once a week. Now,
336
00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:11.440
maybe once every two weeks or ten
days, a new pack will come out
337
00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:18.359
and in those packs their three three
moments for moments. Usually that's how it
338
00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:22.480
works. But like there's if you're
new to NBA top shot right now there's
339
00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:26.160
a starter pack that they help you
get started because some of them you have
340
00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:30.359
to have certain scores, you've had
to purchase a certain amount. But there's
341
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:33.720
a starter pack right now. It's
nine hundred and ninety nine. So this
342
00:22:33.799 --> 00:22:37.240
is what got me into it.
was like when I started looking at tease,
343
00:22:37.319 --> 00:22:41.279
I couldn't afford. Some of these
have teas when they're like one a
344
00:22:41.359 --> 00:22:45.599
theorium and I'm like well, want
to theorium is threezero dollars. Like I
345
00:22:47.079 --> 00:22:49.039
do that. I'm like, Oh, nine hundred and ninety nine for three
346
00:22:49.119 --> 00:22:52.680
or four moments in a pack.
I'm like cool, I could do that.
347
00:22:52.680 --> 00:22:56.160
That's feasible. Just and just so
clarify, stry jump in here,
348
00:22:56.160 --> 00:23:00.079
but just the clip file. You're
saying nine dollars and ninety nine cents.
349
00:23:00.799 --> 00:23:03.559
Yes, for nine nine nine cents. Okay, for a pack. So
350
00:23:03.640 --> 00:23:07.119
if you're just want to get started, and I feel like with Inba top
351
00:23:07.160 --> 00:23:11.359
shot, I mean if you're a
sports fan, it's kind of an easier
352
00:23:11.400 --> 00:23:12.799
way to get into it, like
I said, because you can use a
353
00:23:12.799 --> 00:23:17.319
credit card to purchase your first set
of n a tease and that's what I
354
00:23:17.319 --> 00:23:19.279
did, and so that's really,
you know, with my love for basketball
355
00:23:19.279 --> 00:23:22.920
and then wanting to explore this space, it worked out for me. And
356
00:23:23.000 --> 00:23:27.279
so yeah, so packs or one
way. And like tomorrow they're releasing a
357
00:23:27.359 --> 00:23:33.839
pack. It's Dunks, but they're
not really. It's a limited amount and
358
00:23:33.880 --> 00:23:37.640
they're eighty nine dollars. So you
know, the price varies from pack to
359
00:23:37.680 --> 00:23:41.960
pack, there will be a certain
amount of digital cards in one pack versus
360
00:23:42.000 --> 00:23:45.640
another, and so you can do
it that way. And then they also
361
00:23:45.680 --> 00:23:48.039
have the market place where like,
if you know, just like if I
362
00:23:48.039 --> 00:23:52.599
have a physical card, I could
put it on Ebay or go to a
363
00:23:52.640 --> 00:23:56.880
card show. Well, with NBA
top shot, it only lives on NBA
364
00:23:56.960 --> 00:24:00.839
top Shotcom, and so there's a
market place where you can go and purchase.
365
00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:04.079
If you have a favorite player,
you can go buy a Lebron James
366
00:24:04.240 --> 00:24:08.880
Or, you know, whoever else
you might you know, Chris Paul or
367
00:24:08.960 --> 00:24:14.519
Devin Booker. You can go by
their moments on there. And so that
368
00:24:14.680 --> 00:24:18.200
those are the two railways to get
involved in by your buy an n fft
369
00:24:18.359 --> 00:24:21.720
from NBA top shot. I didn't
know it was so easy because, you
370
00:24:21.759 --> 00:24:25.559
know, like you said, man
buying other projects, other NFT projects,
371
00:24:25.559 --> 00:24:29.640
has been kind of a pain in
my butt. Understanding Wallet, Crypto Currency.
372
00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:33.359
You know what is zero, zero
five either? What? You know,
373
00:24:33.400 --> 00:24:36.799
whatever it's like doing all this.
You know, talk like I don't
374
00:24:36.880 --> 00:24:40.599
understand. So you can just go
to NBA top shots, jump on there
375
00:24:40.599 --> 00:24:44.960
by a pack and what is there? Is there certain levels of packs,
376
00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:47.359
like do you know what's coming in
the pack or is it like a mystery
377
00:24:47.400 --> 00:24:51.240
box? UH, yeah, on
the website they'll kind of list kind of
378
00:24:51.240 --> 00:24:55.640
what's in it in some of the
top moments in it. But in a
379
00:24:55.720 --> 00:24:57.839
way, though, it is like
like if you go to a card shop
380
00:24:57.880 --> 00:25:02.160
and buy a package of cards that
has fifteen cards in it, you don't
381
00:25:02.160 --> 00:25:06.039
know where you're going to get true, and it's similar with these two.
382
00:25:06.079 --> 00:25:08.839
And so you know, just like
with physical cards, there could be like
383
00:25:08.880 --> 00:25:15.519
a we could daunch it card and
it's one of fifteen cards in the world
384
00:25:15.559 --> 00:25:18.079
and you can maybe you get that. Well, with like NBA top shot,
385
00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:22.119
so like they did like an Allstar
pack. Or just as an example,
386
00:25:22.119 --> 00:25:26.079
I'm not going to get the numbers
right, but they have they have
387
00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:32.400
legendary. So in all the if
they really say they release thirtyzero packs,
388
00:25:32.599 --> 00:25:38.559
there would only be ninety nine legendary
cards in those thirtyzero packs. So that's
389
00:25:38.559 --> 00:25:42.240
where the value increases, right,
and then you have rare. So like
390
00:25:42.279 --> 00:25:45.799
they are rare, would be like
there would be five hundred moments in those
391
00:25:45.799 --> 00:25:52.440
packs. And then you have common
and like limited edition, and so like
392
00:25:52.519 --> 00:25:59.319
common there would be over sixtyzero.
So gotch UK so, like I opened
393
00:25:59.319 --> 00:26:03.400
a pack like this was probably a
month ago, and I got two of
394
00:26:03.400 --> 00:26:06.279
the same guy rudy go berry plays
from the Utah Jazz. I got the
395
00:26:06.319 --> 00:26:11.720
exact same play the same moment and
like really like so in that kind that
396
00:26:11.839 --> 00:26:18.240
happens rarely in with physical cards to
but it really happens on top shot.
397
00:26:18.279 --> 00:26:19.720
But it happened to me. And
so, you know, I think I
398
00:26:19.839 --> 00:26:23.640
paid. I think I paid fourteen
ninety nine and felt fourteen dollars and nine
399
00:26:23.680 --> 00:26:26.640
cents, or nine dollars and nine
since that pack and it came with for
400
00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:30.319
so I was able to sell one
of those rudy go bears for like three
401
00:26:30.319 --> 00:26:37.000
dollars. So I kind of yeah, like so in that way you you
402
00:26:37.039 --> 00:26:40.160
know, evens out and if you're
going to sell and not. But,
403
00:26:40.240 --> 00:26:42.680
like you said before, there's no
I'm financial advice out, like I have
404
00:26:42.720 --> 00:26:45.599
no financial advice for you with these, for me, because it started as
405
00:26:45.599 --> 00:26:51.599
a collector, like I wasn't dying
and to make millions of dollars. Yeah,
406
00:26:52.000 --> 00:26:53.880
I was buying them because I wanted
to collect them, and so,
407
00:26:55.240 --> 00:26:56.519
you know, I have made some
money, because you do get hit,
408
00:26:57.119 --> 00:27:00.559
just like with a physical pack,
you do like I had. I've gotten
409
00:27:00.599 --> 00:27:04.119
a couple that I've been able to
soul sell. So what's your one of
410
00:27:04.119 --> 00:27:07.480
the you get me, peek man, because you know, one of my
411
00:27:07.640 --> 00:27:11.559
hobbies when I'm in the states as
I like to go to thrift stores and
412
00:27:11.599 --> 00:27:15.359
find products and flip them just as
for fun, right. It's so what
413
00:27:15.440 --> 00:27:18.519
has been the biggest like surprise when
that you've had, if you don't care
414
00:27:18.559 --> 00:27:22.920
to share? Yeah, I'm trying
to go back through here and see real
415
00:27:23.000 --> 00:27:26.599
quil. Tell me a million bucks. I'm going to start. I'm trying
416
00:27:26.640 --> 00:27:29.880
to bottle money. So No,
no, I would say most I made
417
00:27:29.880 --> 00:27:33.400
on one was probably about, I
think stay it was sixty dud. I
418
00:27:33.440 --> 00:27:37.359
mean that's pretty good if you're paying
fifteen, fourteen, fifteen bucks, you
419
00:27:37.359 --> 00:27:41.000
know, ten fifteen bucks or whatever, and then you're make sixty bucks off
420
00:27:41.000 --> 00:27:45.000
one of those cards, like that's
pretty cool. That's dough. Yeah,
421
00:27:45.039 --> 00:27:47.480
and yeah, and it is like
hit or miss. Like I said,
422
00:27:47.519 --> 00:27:52.920
it was actually was a forty mach
stress, but the reason it sold for
423
00:27:52.920 --> 00:27:59.200
forty because was because the serial number
was so low. There were Twelvezero of
424
00:27:59.240 --> 00:28:03.400
that moment and I was with cerial
number I got was number forty four,
425
00:28:03.920 --> 00:28:08.359
oh, guys, so them,
so, because the lower also the better.
426
00:28:08.400 --> 00:28:11.640
So that's how that's why I like
people like well, I can just
427
00:28:11.680 --> 00:28:17.200
go watch this, this highlight on
ESPN or nbacom or youtube. It's like,
428
00:28:17.279 --> 00:28:19.240
yeah, you can, but you
own it because you have a serial
429
00:28:19.319 --> 00:28:23.240
number attached to it, and so
that's how you know that that's yours,
430
00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:29.880
like nobody else has that number.
Forty for like I had it, I
431
00:28:30.039 --> 00:28:33.599
sold it to somebody else, and
so it's all serialized, and so that's
432
00:28:33.599 --> 00:28:36.720
the other way they keep track of
it. That you can't like they can't
433
00:28:36.720 --> 00:28:41.680
be forged, they can't you can't
fabricate your own. So it's pretty fenced
434
00:28:41.720 --> 00:28:47.680
in. Of how how it's done. And like you're what's the word I'm
435
00:28:47.680 --> 00:28:51.759
looking for, but like the way
you're protected. And so with your assets,
436
00:28:51.799 --> 00:28:53.279
I guess. Yeah, makeause.
I guess it's all in it.
437
00:28:53.400 --> 00:28:57.240
Is it all in the blockchain,
even though you're paying cash? is or
438
00:28:57.279 --> 00:29:02.240
they have their own? YEA,
yeah, so they do have like with
439
00:29:02.359 --> 00:29:06.000
Dapper labs, you can't there are
dapper coins with it, and so okay,
440
00:29:06.400 --> 00:29:08.880
but there's is on flow block chain. So it's built on flow.
441
00:29:10.160 --> 00:29:12.440
I don't know. If you've heard
of that, but it's just a blockchain,
442
00:29:12.519 --> 00:29:15.039
and so they make a shine.
I was look at their website.
443
00:29:15.039 --> 00:29:18.920
There's actually a lot of things they
do. I honestly haven't heard of the
444
00:29:18.920 --> 00:29:25.359
ones that they're involved with as much
as like NBA top shot. But so
445
00:29:25.559 --> 00:29:30.279
yeah, so flow block chain is
where Dapper does their thing, and so
446
00:29:30.119 --> 00:29:33.519
that's pretty cool, man. So
do you have to like when you're sitting
447
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:37.920
all this up, you setting up
a flow account or is that part of
448
00:29:37.960 --> 00:29:41.640
your NBA top shots like set up
process? Yeah, that's a great question.
449
00:29:41.720 --> 00:29:44.759
Yeah, it's all part of the
setup process. So that and that's
450
00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:45.960
the other thing. Like I again, I mean I've said this a few
451
00:29:45.960 --> 00:29:49.119
times, but they just made it
so easy. Yeah, that's what somebody
452
00:29:49.119 --> 00:29:52.000
in your count when the chat was
saying that their friends with some of the
453
00:29:52.039 --> 00:29:56.960
people over a dapper labs and they're
making it really, really easy for people
454
00:29:56.000 --> 00:30:00.920
to come in and spend money invest
and it. So yeah, man,
455
00:30:00.039 --> 00:30:03.519
school. Yeah, which is a
win win right. They're making I mean
456
00:30:03.559 --> 00:30:07.720
in NBA top shot they've made so
much money and so much money has been
457
00:30:07.759 --> 00:30:12.519
exchanged between collectors and so no,
it's really cool what they're doing and the
458
00:30:12.519 --> 00:30:18.240
ease of use is. It's awesome. Yeah, man, that's cool.
459
00:30:18.240 --> 00:30:22.079
Well, I love it that you
are want to. I see the excitement
460
00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:23.079
on your face. John, I've
done you for a while, you know.
461
00:30:23.079 --> 00:30:26.319
I know we've been in brainstorming sessions
were it's like, okay, what's
462
00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:30.759
my content? What's my content?
What's my content in you know, like
463
00:30:30.799 --> 00:30:33.640
even talking about the process of being
a content creator, I could tell that
464
00:30:33.680 --> 00:30:36.759
you're, you know, just on
screen. You're like, okay, this
465
00:30:36.799 --> 00:30:38.319
is a cool conversation, I'm kind
of enjoying it. But the minute we
466
00:30:38.319 --> 00:30:41.319
switched over, I was like,
Mba, top shots like you just like
467
00:30:41.440 --> 00:30:45.319
came on and I'm like, Oh, this is what I'm talking about,
468
00:30:45.319 --> 00:30:47.240
you know. You know, I
want to point that out because I think
469
00:30:47.240 --> 00:30:51.000
people who are watching and listening,
it's like I had a guests on early
470
00:30:51.160 --> 00:30:53.160
this week, Nicki Marie, and
she, you know, came like Tick
471
00:30:53.240 --> 00:30:57.359
Tock, almost two million followers on
tick tock, and she literally credited all
472
00:30:57.400 --> 00:31:02.240
that to just like being herself and
showing up as herself. And so,
473
00:31:03.240 --> 00:31:07.240
and I love it that you are
so into one sports, which I knew
474
00:31:07.279 --> 00:31:10.440
that, and now you rearrange your
office. But if somebody would see the
475
00:31:10.440 --> 00:31:14.119
the other shot that I used to
see all the time is like this guy
476
00:31:14.200 --> 00:31:17.920
is the guy when it comes to
sports. So and this has been this
477
00:31:17.960 --> 00:31:21.039
has been pretty fun. So what
else am I missing? Like we've talked
478
00:31:21.079 --> 00:31:23.359
about what NBA top shot is,
we talked about how how easy they are
479
00:31:23.400 --> 00:31:27.799
to purchase them, and you're being
a content creator right now educating me.
480
00:31:27.839 --> 00:31:32.200
So hopefully some other people educate what
it is. Anything I've left out of
481
00:31:32.240 --> 00:31:37.039
this? I mean those are the
main things. Like, like I said
482
00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:41.000
it again, it's easy to create
an account if you're just creating. They
483
00:31:41.000 --> 00:31:47.160
make it even easier because you can
get a starter pack right away. You
484
00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:49.599
know, they had they're all over
the place on twitter, instagram, they
485
00:31:49.640 --> 00:31:53.359
have a discord channel, which their
discord is. I'm not in a lot
486
00:31:53.359 --> 00:31:59.119
of discords, but the resources they
have for their discord channel is amazing to
487
00:31:59.279 --> 00:32:02.759
with all the resources. There's web, there's links for like market places to
488
00:32:02.799 --> 00:32:07.880
see you can't go see like where
you are as a collector. Oh so,
489
00:32:08.000 --> 00:32:14.599
like I'm in the top eleven percent
and then so then there's some that
490
00:32:14.599 --> 00:32:19.279
are like, you know, zero
point one percent of collectors because they either
491
00:32:19.799 --> 00:32:22.119
and that's the other thing too.
I don't know how, like they have
492
00:32:22.200 --> 00:32:27.240
tons of moments that they purchased or
that they've got from the market place,
493
00:32:27.480 --> 00:32:30.319
but it's like, man, I
don't know where some of the like some
494
00:32:30.359 --> 00:32:34.640
people have like six hundred moments or
whatever it might be, and I'm like
495
00:32:34.720 --> 00:32:38.319
I have forty seven. I probably
had like seventy, but I've sold,
496
00:32:38.440 --> 00:32:43.640
sold, so on and so.
But like that's the other crazy thing is
497
00:32:43.680 --> 00:32:46.960
what what NBA top shot is doing
and what dapper labs is doing with that
498
00:32:47.200 --> 00:32:52.759
is they're just making it easy for
people to make, to collect and just
499
00:32:52.839 --> 00:32:55.680
like with anything else, it's kind
of in a way like hitting them,
500
00:32:55.759 --> 00:33:00.319
hitting the lottery if you get one
of those legendary whatever, because I don't
501
00:33:00.319 --> 00:33:04.400
know, you can see top sales
and the top sale on there is a
502
00:33:04.480 --> 00:33:09.759
Lebron James. It's but it's also
the other thing that helps with making money
503
00:33:09.799 --> 00:33:15.119
is if you get like a serial
number that's also the players number. So
504
00:33:15.319 --> 00:33:21.160
Lebron James is no twenty three.
The top sale was a number twenty three
505
00:33:21.240 --> 00:33:24.279
serial number out of probably seventy or
ninety nine, and it's sold for two
506
00:33:24.400 --> 00:33:30.559
hundred and thirtyzerous day. Is that
the most expensive NBA top shot. So
507
00:33:30.960 --> 00:33:34.839
yeah, Dang, yeah, and
so that's the thing. There is money
508
00:33:34.880 --> 00:33:38.400
to be made, but it's it's
in a way like winning the lottery to
509
00:33:38.480 --> 00:33:42.279
if you're going to make that kind
of money right, like you can make
510
00:33:42.359 --> 00:33:46.160
little money here there, but to
hit like that is just saying. So
511
00:33:46.279 --> 00:33:50.920
people are over in their discord community, because I know I'm, you know,
512
00:33:50.920 --> 00:33:54.680
I'm following some enought projects and it
seems like the value really comes when
513
00:33:54.799 --> 00:34:00.400
more people agree that you know that
they're they're in factuated with the project.
514
00:34:00.480 --> 00:34:05.200
I mean to be honest, it's
not. It's kind of like, okay,
515
00:34:05.279 --> 00:34:07.480
cool, we're we all agree that
this is valuable. We're all pretty
516
00:34:07.519 --> 00:34:10.840
excited about it. It means the
same reason, like a Honda Element that
517
00:34:10.920 --> 00:34:14.840
my wife and I just bought,
the second one this year, so expensive
518
00:34:14.920 --> 00:34:17.880
because they don't make him anymore.
Everybody wants on. There's like this cult
519
00:34:19.000 --> 00:34:22.679
community surrounded by home, and I'm
kind of seeing this in these projects that
520
00:34:22.719 --> 00:34:27.159
I'm a part of. Is that
this true for NBA top shots as well?
521
00:34:27.239 --> 00:34:30.639
you seeing just like fit fanatics,
for lack of a better term.
522
00:34:31.400 --> 00:34:36.719
Yeah, yeah, there definitely are. In the way that they're doing it,
523
00:34:36.760 --> 00:34:38.760
like they'll do some things, like
last year, I can't remember what
524
00:34:38.800 --> 00:34:43.159
game was, but if you are
a collector, you were and bought like
525
00:34:43.159 --> 00:34:47.599
like that. They said they do
these challenges where, if you like it
526
00:34:49.000 --> 00:34:52.960
a whole pack, like if there's
seventy moments in a pack and you get
527
00:34:52.000 --> 00:34:57.119
all seventy, then it kind of
bumps you up to be eligible to do
528
00:34:57.199 --> 00:35:00.599
something else or to get your name
entered to go to a playoff game and
529
00:35:00.639 --> 00:35:05.519
sit in the NBA top shot booth. So there's definitely fandom around it.
530
00:35:05.800 --> 00:35:08.039
Something else that they just did in
the last month. I wanted to hit
531
00:35:08.159 --> 00:35:14.119
on this because this is insane.
They are doing a thing for NBA all
532
00:35:14.159 --> 00:35:17.840
start. It's called the NBA All
Star Vip Pass, and what they're doing
533
00:35:17.880 --> 00:35:22.239
is they're releasing an NFT for every
team. So there's one enough t for
534
00:35:22.280 --> 00:35:25.840
the Lakers, one and ft for
the warriors, you know, every single
535
00:35:25.880 --> 00:35:30.840
team. And with that, though, you get five years of getting to
536
00:35:30.880 --> 00:35:36.679
go to the NBA All star weekend
and you get two tickets for like every
537
00:35:36.719 --> 00:35:39.039
event for the next five years.
Wow. So it's an auction right,
538
00:35:39.039 --> 00:35:43.880
wow, but it's in so it's
not like opening a pack and hitting like
539
00:35:43.960 --> 00:35:45.239
you know, like Willy Wonka and
the chocolate factory, that you hit that
540
00:35:45.280 --> 00:35:52.239
golden ticket. It's not that auction. And so like one of the like,
541
00:35:52.360 --> 00:35:55.239
I don't know what they're all selling, Oh, for over k today.
542
00:35:55.400 --> 00:36:00.239
So every single one I've seen.
I don't think there may have been
543
00:36:00.239 --> 00:36:05.800
one under under there, but they're
all like like even the Oklahoma City.
544
00:36:05.800 --> 00:36:07.360
I'm a huge Kaima city feather fan, and I'm like, man, that
545
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:10.119
would be awesome to have, but
it I just saw, I just ended
546
00:36:10.159 --> 00:36:16.840
in fifty fivezero. And so,
I mean, if I feel like that's
547
00:36:16.840 --> 00:36:21.400
a great opportunity for whoever got that, like they get to, you know,
548
00:36:21.480 --> 00:36:23.039
go to NBA All star weekend.
They're going to have all these other
549
00:36:23.079 --> 00:36:27.440
perks with it, and so,
yeah, you know, they did that
550
00:36:27.519 --> 00:36:30.800
this year, and so they're I
think that's that's a huge thing. And
551
00:36:30.920 --> 00:36:37.440
I just tells you that there are
not only NBA fans but NBA talk shot
552
00:36:37.480 --> 00:36:40.400
collectors that want to get there,
you know, getting the game. And
553
00:36:40.480 --> 00:36:45.360
so, yeah, you spending that
kind of cash, then you must like
554
00:36:45.480 --> 00:36:47.719
them. Yeah, man, that's
that's crazy. What you know of sports
555
00:36:47.719 --> 00:36:52.039
has always been that way. I
mean ever since I was a kid and
556
00:36:52.119 --> 00:36:55.360
knew what sports was like. People
are or super fans and it's all about
557
00:36:55.400 --> 00:36:58.880
that community really, and that's what
I'm telling somebody the other day because they're
558
00:36:58.880 --> 00:37:01.199
like, I just don't understand sports. I'm like, I don't watch sports,
559
00:37:01.199 --> 00:37:04.719
like I'm not like in front of
my tv every time something comes on,
560
00:37:04.800 --> 00:37:07.800
but I get it and it's community
and that's what it does. Same
561
00:37:07.800 --> 00:37:10.400
thing with content creation, Sathy,
with everything. It's like we rally around
562
00:37:10.440 --> 00:37:15.199
podcasting, we rally around Instagram,
we rally around, you know, being
563
00:37:15.239 --> 00:37:19.639
a live streamer or whatever, and
it's really just an excuse to hang out
564
00:37:19.679 --> 00:37:22.159
with people and create that community.
So, John, for you and your
565
00:37:22.159 --> 00:37:28.440
content creation and building phase, and
I know you're you're on the road right
566
00:37:28.480 --> 00:37:30.119
now and you're going, okay,
I'm going this way, I'm going this
567
00:37:30.159 --> 00:37:32.679
way. You're kind of figuring that
out. But as far as like in
568
00:37:32.880 --> 00:37:37.440
FT's is there, do you have
any visions of like or dreams of being
569
00:37:37.440 --> 00:37:42.000
like a project owner, like starting
your own ft project, because you seems
570
00:37:42.039 --> 00:37:44.440
like you're pretty passionate about it,
which I know you know, jump into
571
00:37:44.440 --> 00:37:46.519
the sports arena would be tough with
licensing and all that stuff, but just
572
00:37:46.559 --> 00:37:51.480
in general, maybe you draw your
own caricatures of Lebron and sell them or
573
00:37:51.519 --> 00:37:57.400
something? Right? Yeah, no, I definitely thought about it. This
574
00:37:57.480 --> 00:37:59.599
is going to sound funny and bad, but I'm like, man, I
575
00:37:59.639 --> 00:38:02.320
should take my kids drawings and make
those into n FT's, right. Yeah,
576
00:38:04.679 --> 00:38:08.480
because like with kids drawings that you
like, ninety percent of time I'm
577
00:38:08.519 --> 00:38:13.360
like that's so awesome and it's like
a one of one or whatever. And
578
00:38:13.400 --> 00:38:15.760
so I don't know, I thought
about that. Yeah, I don't know.
579
00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:19.719
I haven't much thought about it with
basketball because, like you said,
580
00:38:19.760 --> 00:38:22.800
with NBA and licensing and all that
might I don't know where that would go.
581
00:38:22.840 --> 00:38:25.679
But it would be definitely something to
be on that side of it,
582
00:38:25.679 --> 00:38:30.360
though, to go through the process. I think it would be worth learning,
583
00:38:30.480 --> 00:38:34.280
especially if in Fte's are your thing, you know. And Yeah,
584
00:38:34.360 --> 00:38:37.239
you know, that's the thing with
my instagram account, like I think with
585
00:38:37.320 --> 00:38:42.039
that it's like showing the journey of
doing something right, is gets people involved,
586
00:38:42.039 --> 00:38:45.440
but then also showing how it's done
and then connecting that way. And
587
00:38:45.519 --> 00:38:51.119
so I think with you know,
with mine, it's like I want to
588
00:38:51.199 --> 00:38:54.480
educate people on nfts and so trying
to, like I said, trying to
589
00:38:54.480 --> 00:38:58.800
figure out do I do that in
reals? Do you do that in carousels?
590
00:38:58.880 --> 00:39:00.760
And you know, as a creator
again, like we talked about like
591
00:39:00.800 --> 00:39:04.960
that, it's just experimenting and what
works and what doesn't work. And that's
592
00:39:04.960 --> 00:39:07.559
a cool thing about instagram or wherever
you do it, is you can just
593
00:39:07.599 --> 00:39:10.599
ask your audience. Yeah, right, and ask him and I'll feel like
594
00:39:10.840 --> 00:39:15.239
no, yeah, do it in
carousels or doing a post and put a
595
00:39:15.239 --> 00:39:20.159
link in the bio or whatever,
and so that's the other cool thing about
596
00:39:20.239 --> 00:39:22.039
the community aside of it. Yeah, man, it's all being you know,
597
00:39:22.039 --> 00:39:25.039
it's all it's social media. So
we're talking about it earlier in a
598
00:39:25.039 --> 00:39:28.719
conversation and somebody was like, yeah, I don't know what to do on
599
00:39:28.760 --> 00:39:32.480
social media. M be social,
like go and find other people's pages and
600
00:39:32.480 --> 00:39:38.039
communities and all this stuff and start
really contributing to those places and stuff,
601
00:39:38.079 --> 00:39:42.719
you know, helping those people build
a community that you want, and that's
602
00:39:42.719 --> 00:39:45.039
where you succeed, and that's what
I've seen in the podcasting world, live
603
00:39:45.079 --> 00:39:49.519
streaming world. I'm going to be
in a part of these communities, and
604
00:39:49.519 --> 00:39:52.039
then people go, Oh, I
like your style, like how you do
605
00:39:52.079 --> 00:39:53.519
stuff, I like this, I
like the you know whatever, and then
606
00:39:53.559 --> 00:39:58.599
they become a part of my circle
and my community as well. So,
607
00:39:59.480 --> 00:40:01.320
man, I love the journey you're
on, John. I appreciate you come
608
00:40:01.360 --> 00:40:05.800
on here and, when talking about
your Creator Journey, being vulnerable and saying,
609
00:40:05.840 --> 00:40:07.960
Hey, I'm I'm figuring it out, because you know, a lot
610
00:40:07.039 --> 00:40:09.960
of people just put up a facade
of like Oh, I get it all,
611
00:40:10.000 --> 00:40:14.000
figured it out, you know.
But it is a process, dude.
612
00:40:14.000 --> 00:40:16.679
It is work, it is grinding
daily, it is going, okay,
613
00:40:16.719 --> 00:40:19.599
I'm going to do this idea.
Wait, wait, I'm going to
614
00:40:19.639 --> 00:40:22.559
pivot, I'm going to do this
idea. So, man, I'm glad
615
00:40:22.559 --> 00:40:27.840
you're listened to your being Super Selfaware, leaning into who you are and who
616
00:40:27.880 --> 00:40:30.360
you want to be and been helping
people with this space, because there's huge
617
00:40:30.360 --> 00:40:36.760
opportunity here. So I'll put all
of your information in instagram handle in the
618
00:40:36.760 --> 00:40:39.480
show notes, and that way when
people listen or watch, they can connect
619
00:40:39.519 --> 00:40:42.840
with the man. So anything else
that you want to leave go on.
620
00:40:42.960 --> 00:40:46.239
It's with before we dip out of
here. No, I mean I would
621
00:40:46.239 --> 00:40:50.519
say just you know, creating daily, right, and so I think that's
622
00:40:50.559 --> 00:40:53.639
an awesome name for your show.
And the other thing with creating is,
623
00:40:53.679 --> 00:40:57.400
like you're saying, like with the
experimenting and all that, and too,
624
00:40:57.880 --> 00:41:01.159
but be yourself because that's what people
want to see and that's who you know,
625
00:41:01.280 --> 00:41:05.000
who you are, right. Don't
try to be somebody else, just
626
00:41:05.039 --> 00:41:07.199
be yourself and you're going to have
a lot more fun. I figured that
627
00:41:07.239 --> 00:41:10.480
out too, so that's that's really
it. Yeah, man, I love
628
00:41:10.639 --> 00:41:14.800
man. Great Advice. John.
Thank you so much for being on the
629
00:41:14.800 --> 00:41:16.920
show, being a part of creating
daily, and we'll have you back on,
630
00:41:17.400 --> 00:41:21.800
especially when you get that Lebron James
one that gets like a million bucks,
631
00:41:22.079 --> 00:41:25.920
will come on and do a win
when episode talking about how John Scored
632
00:41:25.920 --> 00:41:30.159
on one of these nine dollar bacts. I hope that happens. I hope
633
00:41:30.199 --> 00:41:35.079
that happens. Yeah, I appreciate
you so much. It's great catching up
634
00:41:35.079 --> 00:41:38.599
with you, John. Appreciate your
man. Oh thanks. Thank you all
635
00:41:38.679 --> 00:41:43.920
right, everyboddy. Thank you so
much for jumping in here to the creating
636
00:41:44.000 --> 00:41:46.519
daily show. My friend John Snyder
talking about NBA top shots, being the
637
00:41:46.559 --> 00:41:51.119
creator around that space. Now,
one thing I like that he's done as
638
00:41:51.159 --> 00:41:55.119
he's literally found something that he's passionate
about in deciding on a platform to start
639
00:41:55.199 --> 00:42:00.039
creating about, which is his case
instagram right now, and he's sticking to
640
00:42:00.079 --> 00:42:05.599
it and he's figuring that out and
he is moving along in his creator journey
641
00:42:05.679 --> 00:42:08.159
of doing this thing. So be
inspired. It is a journey, it
642
00:42:08.280 --> 00:42:12.760
is a process. We're all going
through it. That's what creating daily is
643
00:42:12.800 --> 00:42:15.719
all about. So if you enjoy

647
00:42:29.000 --> 00:42:30.800
from a friend of mine, Ryan
Sullivan. I hope he'll be on.
648
00:42:30.920 --> 00:42:35.360
We'll be talking about the power of
not giving up, because he was on
649
00:42:35.400 --> 00:42:39.000
the brink of giving up in his
creator journey and then there's a little switch
650
00:42:39.039 --> 00:42:43.800
that happen in his business. That
really was a cool story that he showed
651
00:42:43.800 --> 00:42:45.039
with me. So I want to
bring him on tomorrow and share it with
652
00:42:45.119 --> 00:42:51.079
him. Fingers crossed they get confirmation
today for that. And there's my three
