Vision Tricks

To #Azuki friends: This fucking sucks I'm sorry this had to happen to you. To people still supporting Zagabond and the Azuki team: Please keep holding this to 0. The rest of the NFT community is laughing at your willful blindness to the corruption in the space.

@briann6211 Bad take brian.

Saying the Azuki team “rugged” Phunks and Zunks is the equivalent of demanding utility from artists. There was no roadmap, no promises, no nothing. Just derivatives of punks. This fud is dumb

@DopeNFTz @MinnesotaHaze @AzukiOfficial Not sure if you're following but the other founders all tweeted SUPPORTING zaga. So yea, there goes that fucking idea

@MinnesotaHaze Remove that Zaga dude and keep the project alive. It grew for a reason, of which none was tied to anything Zaga did or didn’t do until it was released. He’s gotta go. Simple. @AzukiOfficial can survive and slowly regain trust.

Had the Azuki news been disclosed before mint it would have been the reddest of flags. Now people have significant $ tied up and are forced to die on a hill for the shadiness. Feel bad for folks who own Azuki but also realize how bad that kind of behavior is for the space

@TheMushroomGen @twocrackjack 🤡

if zagabond has millions of fans, I am one of them. if zagabond has 10 fans, I am still one of them. if zagabond has 1 fan, its me. if zagabond has no fans, I'm no longer on this earth. if the world is against zagabond, I am against the world

@hammmer_ I do too - except the ones defending Zag and azuki team as if it's acceptable.

I feel for Azuki holders, it was not their fault.

@0xQuit Completely agree with this take. Actions have consequences, and do NOT reward them. Btw that beanz leak from Azuki suddenly seems way more understandable given the context of who's running it now.

I'm a firm believer in second chances, but I'm begging each and every one of you not to let Zagabond off the hook here. Sets a horrible precedent and I already see it starting to happen. If we let Azuki rise again, we need certifiable proof that he is no longer profiting from it

@Cryptilt Well fucking said. We want NFT's and Web3 to succeed? How about not letting scumbag founders be part of our "blue chips"

@NFTLlama Thanks for keeping it real and calling a spade a spade. Need people like you to call out shit when we see it and not hide behind what other people might think.

@badam1666 @NFTLlama LOLLLLLL

@NFTLlama Zagabond after each mint

@2pmflow This was not even close to "technically" acceptable, are you fucking serious

To those who showed support — thank you for believing in us. To those who criticized — thank you for helping us learn and improve.

@konger_eth @AzukiOfficial You seriously still supporting shitbags of founders? Do some self-reflection, what does that say about YOU?

Looking forward to meeting all of you Diamond hand @AzukiOfficial holders at the next meeting in NYC. The stories will be epic. 🤝⛩️

@TenaciousEth This this this.

He didn’t apologize when he left the projects He didn’t apologize when he wrote the blog He didn’t apologize during the Spaces today He apologized when the floor started tanking That tells you everything you need to know

@MikeVaynerchuk Good on you for being someone who doesn't have blinders on defending scumbags. Mad respect.

Sold my Azuki! Time to reinvest in better projects

@hoshiboyzen "Dont worry guys we'll fuck up again! We'll just apologize though and it'll be OK"

We’ve made mistakes together, we’ll make mistakes in the future. Azuki succeeded because the community believed in us - today we lost a piece of that trust, and it’s our responsibility to earn it back. I own that. We own that.

@hoshiboyzen THATS what you have to say about it? Holy shit your PR team needs work.

I know we make great things together. For me personally, there’s nothing that gives me more fulfillment than building product, and I can’t fucking wait to keep building Azuki.

@iamashchild You're legitimately such a hypocrit without any logical or moral compass. Defending the criminals in the space. Making fun of people who have nothing but good intentions for the space. Go look in a mirror and do some self-reflection.

@mulan_bean @ZAGABOND @AzukiOfficial Fucking up is OK - deceiving the communities, pretending to be a female in order to sell your project, trading on insider knowledge about reveals is NOT. I think you're missing the bigger points about why this is all fucked up

@ZAGABOND @AzukiOfficial Be more kind to yourself, it's okay to fuck up. Just learn from your mistakes

Take a moment to think. @ZAGABOND story tells us that even a genius can fuck up. You can fail 100 times but you'll eventually succeed. There was no malice in what he did, he just fucked up before and now succeeded with @AzukiOfficial.

@Luigi05 @cybercodetwins @ZAGABOND @AzukiOfficial Because NFTs aren't regulated he faces no legal consequences. But all this shit in anything that IS regulated would actually face prison time. So up to you to decide if you still support him just because he's not legally going to jail.

@cybercodetwins @Vision_Tricks @ZAGABOND @AzukiOfficial I see evident mismanagement and professional negligence, but fraud is another thing entirely. Hey, if it was fraud then I hope he gets arrested. I just don't agree that it is from what I've seen, but this is the court of public opinion so we're each judge, jury and executioner.

I fucked up. After the spaces today, I realized my shortcomings in how I handled the prior projects which I started. To the communities I walked away from, to Azuki holders, and to those who believed in me — I’m truly sorry. 1/x

@Luigi05 @ZAGABOND @AzukiOfficial twitter.com/Meta_Morphy/st… Read through the responses. It's verifiably proven that there was no other way than Azuki team/devs leaking the rarities out. Their dev gave a BS response of "oh it's not us, I promise" even though every other method would be ACTUALLY impossible

@Vision_Tricks @ZAGABOND @AzukiOfficial I see many people that disagree with you. I am very open minded and if you can show me solid proof that they cheated on Beanz, that'd be awesome not just for me but for many others. Please, help me understand your serious accusation more accurately.
