thr33som3s Left to Focus on Podcast

We have arrived at the biggest moment in the history of this project. On August 10th the first round of auctions begins for Gen 3 thr33zi3s, the best hand painted generative project on any chain.

We take some time to review how this year's version is slightly different and how participation is key. There is a reflection period where we go over how much prices have changed in a year during a segment I like to call: "Guess that Price" (How original). 3s b...

Rattro is the most generous "billionaire" in the Grotto as evidenced by his recent burning of 20,000 hard earned Val3ntin3s. Listen along to hear how he was thinking about his plays back to Gen1 and through today. Great episode to get some perspective on the guys at the top of this project.

This week we had the first stacking effort with the Gen 2 Val3ntin3s, it was a treacherous feat that only a few were able to accomplish. For those that did, they received a coveted Young thr33zi3s. We go over the ins and outs of the stacking mechanic and the new piece. We also discuss how this event lead people to become more organized in their collecting and the benefits of this. Segueing into a...

Our chaotic sports event has concluded and after the dust settled we all now have our Val3ntin3s in our wallets. We go over how everything shakes out, how offers are looking these days (lol), how the Grotto provides protection, what beautiful Thr33zi3s History card the prop bet winners receive, and touch on a little bit of stacking coming on Monday.
