A
A
We
see
tomorrow's
nfts
and
to
talk
about
it,
I
want
to
invite
my
team
first
up
is
mali?
Come
on
up
maui's
our
creative
director,
everything
in
the
brand
you've
seen
next
will
be
danny
danny
come
on
up
danny's
ecosystem
bd
she's
helped
create
this
whole
party
and
last
is
matt
our
cto
who's
going
to
talk
about
technology
so
to
get
started.
I'm
going
to
pass
the
mic
over
to
mali
and
she's
going
to
tell
you
a
little
bit
about
this
creative
renaissance.
B
So
what
do
we
mean
when
we
say
creative
renaissance
renaissances
of
courses
have
happened
before
the
historical
renaissance
in
the
1500s
was
an
explosion
of
art,
music,
literature,
science,
philosophy
catalyzed
by
a
huge
wealth
creation
event,
which
was
actually
the
entry
of
the
invention
of
double
entry,
accounting,
which
is
basically
just
the
recording
in
a
ledger
of
who
has
paid
what
to
whom
and
like
itemizing
a
business
by
each
account.
So
it
might
seem
simple
to
us,
but
this
bookkeeping
invention.
This
ledger
was
literally
the
beginning
of
the
modern
world.
B
B
B
So
this
wealth
creation
event
happening
right
now.
This
renaissance
is
global
and
open,
unlike
any
that's
come
before
in
the
historical
renaissance,
wealth
creation
made
merchants
wealthy
and
they
spent
that
money
patronizing
the
arts,
but
in
today's
open
web
renaissance
wealth
creation
is
an
opportunity
open
to
everyone,
and
artists
can
participate
directly.
That's
why
we're
building
satori?
C
C
C
By
breaking
down
the
barriers
between
the
art,
world
and
the
art
market,
we
can
enable
artists
to
connect
directly
with
their
fans
and
grow
their
ecosystems
and
become
sustainable
financial
ecosystems
together.
So
we'll
jump
forward,
I
don't
know
who's
controlling
the
slides.
I
think
it's
peter
thanks,
so
satori
achieves
its
vision
in
three
parts.
First,
we
build
our
services
on
top
of
open
apis
everything
that
satori
mints
is
non-custodial
for
the
fans,
so
they
truly
own
the
assets
and
everything
that
we
do.
C
We
administer
for
the
artists,
so
the
artists
are
basically
owning
their
contracts
and
their
ability
to
distribute.
This
is
also
easily
composable,
with
other
primitives
from
the
near
ecosystem
as
well.
Second,
artists
and
entrepreneurs
can
create
products
built
on
our
minting
api
spearmint.
It's
an
everything
for
nft's,
api
and
spearman
is
currently
in
private
beta.
So
you
can
ask
ken
for
access
where's
ken
there.
He
is
he's
big
and
he's
got
a
pink
hat
on.
C
Two
products
that
we
personally
have
built
on
top
of
spearmint
very
very
quickly
are
shop
drop,
which
is
a
high
volume,
low-cost
nft
sales
app
in
the
shopify
marketplace,
available
to
any
shopify
plus
merchants
right
now
and
sonar
which
enables
artists
to
reward
their
fans
on
social
media
for
engaging.
So,
for
example,
a
retweet
or
a
post
with
a
hashtag
distribution
via
spearmint,
allows
us
to
rapidly
fill
communities
with
nfts,
whether
you're
selling
hundreds
of
thousands
of
nfts
for
five
dollars
or
whether
you're
dropping
millions
of
nfts
through
social
media
bounties.
C
Finally,
we
believe
the
future
lies
in
new
channels
and
powerful
network
effects
that
we're
creating
between
the
artists
and
the
fans.
These
channels
are
economic,
social
and
cultural,
and
we
believe
the
utility
and
network
effects
of
nfts
are
more
powerful
than
the
current
collectible
and
scarcity-based
nfts
that
we
see
today.
C
So
our
go
to
market
is
piggybacking
on
existing
web
2
behaviors.
If
you
caught
my
talk
earlier,
you
see
me
talking
a
lot
about
a
web
2
distribution,
keeping
things
familiar,
keeping
things
easy
for
the
artists
and
the
developers
and
entrepreneurs
that
are
building
on
top
of
spearmint
that's
today,
but
tomorrow
our
infrastructure
is
basically
going
to
be
decentralized
and
in
parallel,
we're
building
our
node-based
infrastructure.
Today,
we're
bundling
the
best
of
web3
such
as
ipfs
filecoin
and,
of
course,
near
protocol
standards
and
we're
delivering
that
basically
to
the
world.
D
All
right,
thank
you.
Matt
that
was
very
cool,
so
satori's,
blue
sky
idea
is
that
nfts
should
go
mainstream
and
we're
going
to
be
empowering
artists
everywhere,
and
it
really
comes
down
that
to
the
concept
that
crypto
and
blockchain
technology
belongs
to
everyone,
and
the
barriers
of
entry
should
be
lowered
so
that
you
don't
have
to
know
anything
about
writing
smart
contracts,
so
that
you
don't
need
to
understand.
You
know
how:
how
do
these
particular
apis
wrap
around
something
to
create
xyz,
because
the
barrier
to
entry
should
be
your
creativity.
D
It
should
be
how
much
passion
you
have,
how
many
people
you
can
inspire
the
communities
that
you
can
build
around
you
and
so
satori's.
Great
vision
is
that
if
we
take
care
of
that
for
you,
if
we
take
care
of
the
smart
contracts
and
we
build
the
apis
and
we
lay
this
foundation
that
all
of
you
will
join
us
and
build
things
on
top
of
that
and
their
ecosystem
can
really
flourish
and
grow.
D
And
ultimately,
I
really
think
that
the
greatest
projects
that
come
through
are
the
ones
that
have
people
and
passion
and
ideas
behind
them
that
have
have
some
some
specific
directive
as
to
what
they
want
to
do
and
where
they
want
to
be
in
the
world
and
and
that's
going
to
make
all
the
difference.
And
so
with
that.
I
want
to
say
that
right
now,
we're
at
the
very,
very
tip
of
where
we
are
in
the
the
tip
of
the
iceberg.
D
D
B
B
A
I
just
want
to
thank
my
team
really
proud.
Also,
we
have
some
of
our
core
team
here
in
the
back,
you
guys,
what's
up,
say
hi
to
people
in
pink
hats
or
blue
hats.
I
want
to
kind
of
summarize
what
we
covered
and
talk
a
little
bit
about
the
name.
This
is
the
fun
part
of
being
a
ceo
is
being
a
little
indulgent
about
the
narrative,
so
we
truly
believe
that
right
now,
the
way
people
behave
undervalues
sort
of
core
contributors
to
our
entire
culture
right.
A
I
have
friends
who
are
musicians
who
are
completely
broke
and
they
are
some
of
the
most
talented
people
I've
ever
met.
Lachlan
is
a
juilliard
trained,
pianist
and
he's
also
our
first
engineering
hire
right.
So
we
have
this
narrative
weaving
through
society,
and
we
have
these
cycles
in
society
that
we
are
tuning
into
right.
This
idea
of
a
renaissance,
true,
like
a
rebirth
of
culture,
where
you
have
these
market
events
that
drive
cultural
events
just
like
in
crypto,
you
have
these
market
event,
events
see
edna
driving,
crypto,
sorry
driving
cultural
events.
A
All
right-
and
this
is
where
the
name
comes
from
satori-
is
a
zen
buddhist
term,
meaning
sudden
enlightenment.
What
blockchain
needs
is
its
aha
moment,
satori
an
epiphany
right.
So
what's
with
the
flowers,
our
icon
is
the
sakura.
It's
a
japanese
cherry
blossom.
That's
the
little
thing
you
can
see
right
here.
Oh
whoopsies,
sorry
down
here,
you
guys,
maybe
can't
see
it
but
it'll
be
on
the
front
in
a
second.
A
This
is
maybe
the
most
wooey
thing,
I'm
gonna
say
on
stage,
but
we
see
the
world
as
this
big
dark
forest
people
are
dropped
inside
of
it
right.
You
have
the
jeff
bezos's
of
the
world,
building
testaments
to
themselves
they're
building
these
phallic
rockets
that
are
like
penetrating
the
atmosphere.
You've
got
these.
You
know
steve
jobs,
one
like
this
great
figure
invented
the
iphone.
Thank
you
right,
but
it
was
based
entirely
on
his
ego.
It
was
based
entirely
on.
A
Can
I
build
a
ziggurat
to
myself
we're
doing
something
different,
we're
planting
flowers,
artists,
plant
flowers,
artists,
plant
flowers,
that
other
people
get
to
see
whether
the
artist
is
there
when
you
appreciate
their
flowers
or
whether
they're?
Not
it
doesn't
matter
because
they
created
something
that
is
objectively
beautiful,
that's
what
the
flower
represents.
A
A
flower
represents
nature's
attempt
at
objective
beauty
and
at
the
core
of
everything
that
we're
doing
here
in
blockchain
in
satori.
That's
what
we're
driving
towards
right
and
so
what
I
want
to
leave
you
with
we're
a
little
ahead
of
schedule,
but
I
want
to
leave
you
guys
with
a
flower.
You
can
see
our
technology,
you
notice,
we
didn't
talk
a
lot
about
our
products.
This
is
our
product.
A
You
can
scan
this.
You
can
claim
an
nft
on
mainnet
and
I
will
just
say
one
thing
about
how
this
was
generated.
Our
documentation
can
generate
these
claim
links.
So
if
you
are
a
developer
talk
to
matt,
he
can
teach
you
how
to
do
it
if
you're
an
investor,
we're
raising
a
10
million
dollar
fundraise
it's
about
to
close-
and
this
is
our
soft
launch-
we're
not
even
launched
yet.
A
We've
got
basically
two
million
nfts
that
we're
going
to
be
launching
in
q1
we've
already
sort
of
signed
the
contracts
on
and
in
january.
Mid-January
is
when
you're
going
to
hear
a
lot
about
us,
but
we
wanted
to
share
this
this
little
flower
that
is
satori
sorry
to
get
sentimental
all
you
techie
people
with
you
here
inside
of
the
near
family,
so
where's
satori.
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
attention.
Everybody.
