NYC NFT looks like it'll be June 21st as of now. 95% sure.
Venue can hold around 2500 people. Unsure how many will show up, but as of now no +1 to make sure holders can attend.
But will see how many RSVP. Might do a smaller meet up as well.
Takes management of funds seriously to make sure they're building for the next 10+ years.
Make sure to have the funds to pay taxes.
Have enough working capital for hiring plans and payroll and have enough for at least a 3 year bear market.
Still hiring and interviewing. Excited about some design hires.
Trying to get to 25-30 total people on the team.

Public profiles v1.0 released this week. Great way to track the journey of our Moonbirds. Some fun stuff coming to the profiles.

Skeleton traits got airdropped this week. There will be more broad airdrops that go out to everyone. Not only to specific traits.

When it comes to airdrops, you're not going to get a heads up. They will be surprises.
Eligibility will be nesting.
If it's been announced that there's an airdrop, then the snapshot likely has already been done.
One full time engineer now. One coming in the next week or so. Several contractors have worked with the team for small builds or asks.
They still need iOS and Android engineers.
Maybe 7-10 engineers by the year end.
IRL addresses are used to send stuff. You can use a PO Box or a fake name.
They are in an encrypted database. Stored in Google Firestore.
If you put in an email address, they will email us to give us a heads up that something will be shipped.
Will there be new metadata that shows nesting data on Opensea?
Will see if it's possible and how. Talking with Opensea.
The Proof collective had a full time analyst signed today. Wants to have three full time analysts.
What projects do they want to work on and have allowlist spots for? Wants to vet as much as they can.
Right now if you have a nested bird and list on Looksrare, it can't be bought. Frustrating for potential buyer. Why list on LR? For LR rewards.
LR told them they could turn off the rewards for nested Moonbirds listed for sale, but hasn't yet.
If you set your Moonbird below the floor, but it's nested, you can be manually unnested. It has happened this week.
Trying to prevent a bad buying experience for people who want to join the community.
Hoping LR will turn off rewards for birds that are nested and listed.
Highrise - Not building an expansive 3d world to run around in.
What does the future of connection and community look like?
What can we build to bring that together?
What if our world is closer to building the tooling around the future of connection?
We're all going to be owners and have access as holders.
How is this connecting to the future? How is this laying the foundation to what we're building?
Soon we will see pieces that will be connected to Highrise.
Release early and often and take in feedback.
How can holders best support the project and community?
Wants to empower community members to be the best brand advocates. We own the art work for our bird.
May have a way to have capital for helping us get something made and marketing. Have the community vote.
Ramping up content product. A full time person will help.
Mentioned a show that will be a roundtable show about NFTs and web3. Podcast and video format. Similar to the interview Kevin had with Derek.
Wants to hire another podcast host.
