3/
Silver Nest Rewards. 60 days from bronze nest.
1. Socks
2. Custom Fanny pack. Each one has a different color combo.
3. Two pins, silver pin and a bronze pin
Remember these are fun, non-consequential achievements tied to nest tiers.
4/
Talking about the pins
What does it look like to show up to IRL events?
Love the ideas of having these pins in your profile and in mobile app (future), but also physical pins that you can show in person.
5/
Kevin addressing that next 60 days comment from NYC
The one thing that he was referring to was Future Proof. Roadmap event. Show what we've been hard at work on. Give more details on projects.
6/
Oddities reveal feedback and reception
We want to celebrate wins and also be honest about what we didn't get right.
We are not perfect.
We will sit listen and take in feedback.
Digest it and see what we can take moving forward and create a better business.
7/
Spent a lot of time in Discord and Twitter reading comments.
Waiting 2 months set too much expectation.
Should have posted FAQ.
When people are not sure what you're doing people will speculate best and worst situation.
8/
We saw Oddites as a fun project. We wanted to celebrate an awesome artist we respected.
How do we set these expectations and been more clear about what Oddities are?
Should have been clearer around what Oddities actually is and that it wasn't Moonbirds Ravens.
9/
The floor did not stay where we thought it would during the 60 days. It was pretty high up there.
He understands people make bets based on the company's past performance.
10/
Being mysterious was intentional for Oddities. That was the idea. Felt fun to play with, but now looking back, can now see that was not right.
Moving forward we will better balance with mystery and clarity.
11/
We thought the spawned Oddities would be fun to show which Moonbird it came from.
We made a decision to carry traits from Moonbirds.
We tried to give some unique rare traits for non-rare Oddities as well.
12/
Oddities do play in the Proof ecosystem.
They will be a part of the nesting page. Will have own collector profile.
Justin is open to listening to the Oddities community and getting feedback. We're not done with Oddities.
13/
Kevin - Oddities wild art project given to Moonbirds. Hope that the artist carries enough weight that you'll hold it regardless of utility.
You hold it because you love the artist and art.
Lots of feedback to take in. We're excited for this drop.
14/
If we could have done it again, we would have just dropped it as a surprise with instant reveal.
15/
Oddities is all about under promising and overdelivering.
Discord access
Events
Limited allowlist
access to highrise
more to discuss at Future Proof
16/
Addressing internal staff purchasing
We will post a policy publicly how we will handle it.
Kevin mentioned it was a 10 day waiting person but he made a mistake.

17/
Leading up to a project, anyone working on the Oddities team, were forbidden to buy.
Will post our policy publicly to be transparent.
18/
Oddities Giveaway
@akastevey_ finished a Zoom meeting to with all participants to welcome them all to the community.
Participants are @myBFF, @endaomentdotorg, @50mmCollective, @Blackatxyz, @unicorndao_xxx, @humandao, and @0xDecaArt
19/
They will recieve them later today.
They all have a variety of distribution mechanics, many will be held back and given to community members at a later date
We will follow their progress as they distribute them, and canβt wait to welcome the new members of the community.
20/
We want to grow our network, and continue these relationships. We will be working with these teams to introduce us to other communities we should know about for our future initiatives.
Was looking for communities that are NFT curious. Very engaged. Want to be a part of web3
21/
Question about what you're most excited about in the future.
Next week will be having internal conversation about Proof of Conference. - Justin
22/
Project Highrise for Kevin. Excited to show you the first phase and tease out some of the other phases. It'll allow you to come in and use it and it will evolve over the different phases over the year.
23/
We have a drop mechanic we will announce next month that is so different. Wants to something novel and unquie but people love to use it.
Thinks it will solve a lot of problems for our industry. Believes later other projects will use it as well.
24/
What does Gen 1 under Oddities mean?
Will have a lineage tied bak to the original Moonbird to show what it spawned.
Doesn't mean future Oddities will look the same.
May not always be a PFP. It's up to the artist.
25/
Nesting was a product decision to not make it a supply squeeze but giving them a decision if they were in or out of a community.
That nesting time builds and you can track it.
Could have made it a long continuous date. But instead we wanted to celebrate the journey.
26/
We don't want to see nesting tiers where it feels like different nest separates the community.
Total time will matter. If you're nested, you're good.
For future things, it won't be about nest levels but just if you are nested. Maybe not for everything though.
27/
Will we see nesting for Oddities?
No it's not set up in the contract.
We didn't really believe this many people would nest when we launched Moonbirds.
28/
Thank you for reading today!
What a week it's been.
See you next week!
