@R89Capital Exactly. This is way worse and there are reasons to feel this hopeless about this industry

It's not like other bear markets, I've been through three of them now.. This time all my group chats have just moved on lol.. Everyone just trades stocks now, no one is even waiting around on alts to come back.

@BulgarianDegen Get rid of Vincent. That loser is the one to blame for all the mess within the community

I’m no longer a Lad. With this decision, I’m officially out of NFTs. Mad Lads was my last bet that this meta would eventually come back. This wasn’t a financial decision, not about BP price, not about allocation. It was something else. Lads, for me, was never about money. It was about the people. I found real friends here, and I genuinely loved the community we had, especially before the Backpack TGE. What made me step away is something harder to ignore: I started feeling a growing hesitation among people to speak their minds. Long-term holders with strong opinions getting blocked from Discord and Telegram wasn’t something I ever expected. I never thought censorship would be part of Mad Lads. To me, Lads were always the ones who were a bit crazy, louder than the rest, and unapologetically different, not fitting into traditional boxes. That spirit is what made it special. I still believe Backpack is a great product, and I’ll continue using the exchange. I wish Armani and the team nothing but success. I do think there was a misstep with the Lads, but I’m just one voice, time will tell the full story. To everyone I met along the way, thank you. Wishing every Lad the best. Once a Lad, always a Lad.

@KgnCnKhrmn @armaniferrante Vincent is the biggest clown i’ve ever seen 😂😂

You said: “always focusing on long term holders over people that come and go” and “We are nothing without our community, and we will serve it in the best way we know how.” Then please listen to one of those long-term holders. For a long time now, people have been getting tired of the way your CM treats the community. When they finally respond in the same tone, they get banned from Discord. Today I got banned as well even though I haven’t sent a single message in the last 3 days. That tells me there is a deeper issue here, and it’s not being addressed. We’ve filled out forms multiple times. Again and again. But it was ignored, because you said “people like him.” Please, just take a real look at Discord. We’re talking about someone who reacts to their own messages even using alt accounts to do it. And honestly, situations like the Hotdog incident… these things don’t happen out of nowhere they dragged you into that. Also ask yourselves honestly: Why are people starting to ask for T or someone else instead of your current CM? (I won’t name them to avoid unnecessary drama like you said to me on Dc 3 days ago). This isn’t random. This is a pattern. And just to be clear, I didn’t mention Backpack, token, or OTC at all. That’s your expertise, and I respect that. But this? This is about the community. I won’t drag this further. If you truly believe what you said that the community comes first then prove it. And there is still time to fix it.

On FUD. FUD is an opportunity to either address misunderstandings or to identify mistakes and simply fix them. With every TGE, emotions run hot, as people focus on a single number, the token price, determining one’s feelings. It’s human nature, and because Backpack has such a large community around the world, spanning from advanced traders in Asia, to wallet users on every network, Mad Lad holders around the world, and everyone in between, the TGE is a time where people vocalize their views. I would like to address several different topics I’ve seen floating around over the past few days to set the record straight and offer my perspective. - OTC. I can’t believe I have to say this, no, we aren’t OTCing our own tokens to cash out. See the tokenomics. Fake news. End of story. What is true: buyers reached out to me and asked for OTC. I am happy to help buyers find more tokens. Unfortunately, due to the bad history of other crypto projects using OTC to cash out, folks assumed the worst when they saw me post about OTC in discord. - Mad Lads. All existing Mad Lad holders pre-TGE retain their Backpack VIP status. New holders do not. Some like this, some hate this. I understand both perspectives. My perspective is that Mad Lads has always been an evolution alongside Backpack. We went from the whitelist games inside Backpack => pre-reveal inside Backpack => reveal boss inside Backpack => xNFT inside Backpack => airdrops inside Backpack => VIP points inside Backpack => the BP token. Each one of these stages created a clear path for Mad Lads to get to the next stage, always focusing on long term holders over people that come and go. There are people that follow the path, and people that do not. There are people that evolve with us and people that do not. Our approach from the day Mad Lads was born has always been to focus people on the Backpack product. Naturally, new people came into Mad Lads with their own pre-conceived notion of what it was or what it should be. This creates tension. But we have always had a strong vision and we will always stick to it. The people that use the product always get to the next stage, where every stage answers a single question: how do we push Backpack forward. When designing token utility, it’s a question of economics, and it would be a disservice to BP to not align incentives around it. There’s an additional nuance worth pointing out: Backpack is different from basically every other product that dropped a mined token because we KYC users and are selective about the regions we open up. Those users have been out of the game, so to speak, not because I want to do that–nothing upsets me more than not being able to serve users in a particular region (what founder would want that?)--but it’s because we have chosen the path of building a crypto native financial institution. That path is long and hard. For these users, we have maintained the path to get to the next stage and have communicated that. When we open up regions, these regions will get their drops, and we will be running new campaigns to get more drops just by using the product, and that brings everyone up to speed with the same VIP benefits of the original pre-TGE seasons. For the long term holders, nothing has changed. The key issue is with respect to new NFT holders. Some people will hate this. Some will think it’s sound economics. I understand both perspectives. We are doing what we think is best. - Sybills. Our goal was to protect retail users competing for points against sophisticated players splitting accounts and giving themselves an unfair advantage over those that don’t. The mistake we made: our process was too black and white. From the team’s point of view, we had a line and we stuck to it. From the community’s point of view, the line is nuanced. We did not sufficiently take that into consideration. - Price/FDV. With every token comes the human nature to think about the price at all times. There are good ways to think about price and there are clearly illegal ways to think about price. Our position is simple, we are building over a long period of time, and we are not making short term decisions. 24h post-TGE FDV is not a meaningful metric. Even 1 week post-TGE FDV is not a meaningful metric. If you ask anyone that’s ever built anything, they’ll tell you the same. Many people will take issue with that statement, and that’s ok. Ultimately, you have to look at our incentives and decide for yourself. The fact of the matter is that the team and I are incentivized to make Backpack a success with arguably the most extreme tokenomics ever created. What happens if the token goes to zero and stays there? Our company fails, and we get nothing. Some people might rebut saying that we get rich from the company revenue. No. That is simply not how companies work. We don’t get rich from a bad token price. We are punished in the most extreme possible way. And we are rewarded in the most extreme way only if we achieve all of our hopes and dreams. The way it should be. This is by design. Beyond this post you won’t see me talk about price or FDV. You will see me talking about building and creating long term value. And it’s only by doing that, can BP become a success. Every project goes through trials and tribulations. This is certainly a moment for us. We are nothing without our community, and we will serve it in the best way we know how. I have complete conviction, I am all in, and the team is all in. Don’t trust us, look at the tokenomics to decide for yourself. Thank you for reading this. Thank you especially to those that have supported us this week. It means a lot. We will continue to review the above, particularly the cases around sybils, and get back to building.

@Punk_Monke @ZygfridS Shame

Down so bad KOL steal tweets Fuck you bitch @ZygfridS

@solananew @MadLads @armaniferrante Lmaooo

🚨BREAKING: @MADLADS AND $BP BOTH CRASH OVER 50%, WITH THE COMMUNITY CLAIMING THEY WERE RUGGED BY @ARMANIFERRANTE!!!🚨

@asf43tdfg56 @yhlqmdlg36 @SolounMadao @equisdors Seré un caso atipico, pero empece con caida de pelo en 2021 y usé solo con minoxidil, y mi pelo esta hoydia mas firme que nunca. Eso si, he sido extremo en lo riguroso y creo que apenas he fallado 2 dias durante 5 años. Igual, finasteride lo tengo en reserva apenas vea caidas

@yhlqmdlg36 @SolounMadao @equisdors Te lo digo por tu bien y por la de los demas compañeros, el minoxidil solo atrasa un poco ese destino inevitable, te puede dar 2 años maximo de aire, pero lo que relamente frena la enfermedad es el finasteride o dutasterida

un amigo se está echando minoxidil 19 años

@BubblyIan @TRobinsonNewEra @joseantoniokast Chile is the place my friend, you will love it ;)

@Loco_onchain @TRobinsonNewEra @joseantoniokast Thanks! Definitely must visit soon to see what it is like. Winter in UK means summer in South America so a good time to travel, perhaps.

Day two of Chile’s new based President @joseantoniokast term in office and he's rounding up illegal immigrants.

@BubblyIan @TRobinsonNewEra @joseantoniokast The southern cone is a friendly place for people who want to adapt and integrate to western tradition and christian values

@TRobinsonNewEra @joseantoniokast Wonderful news! South America heading in the right direction, Europe heading in the wrong direction. Maybe we should consider emigrating?

@kel94686901 @mageeclegg 10/10 place tbh, mild weather the whole year. Literally a vibe

@mageeclegg @Loco_onchain Vina is the best, would move there in a second.

Chile 🇨🇱 might be one of the most underrated countries on Earth… And almost nobody outside South America understands why. Look at the map… The Andes guard the east. The Pacific guards the west. The driest desert on Earth sits to the north. Patagonia and glaciers stretch across the south. Chile is a natural fortress. Hard place to invade. Hard place to collapse. Chile also became one of the world’s major food exporters… Wine. Salmon. Fruit shipped to markets all over the world. Then there’s lithium… Chile sits at the heart of the Lithium Triangle… one of the richest battery-metal regions on Earth. Electric cars. Energy storage. The next industrial shift runs straight through the Andes. And despite the chaos sometimes seen across Latin America… Chile actually works. Banks work. Infrastructure works. Airports work. The electric grid works. You can ski in the Andes in the morning… and drink Carménère by the Pacific that night. Not many countries offer that kind of life. Which is why more people are starting to notice Chile… Some are considering it a Plan B… Many are realizing it could be a Plan A. Temporary residency first… Permanent residency a couple years later… Citizenship after five years by law. In a world getting stranger every year… Chile 🇨🇱 feels like one of the last countries that still makes sense. And the people who figure that out early… will always have a safe retreat.

@JamesBancr12182 @graemelamperson @TheLatamGuy You are missing so much bro. When coming back?

@graemelamperson @TheLatamGuy Clearly remember entering Chilé from Peru and finally the roads were smoothed and paved. :) Felt amazing, but only visited San Pedro de Atacama.

Is it true that in Chile cars actually stop for pedestrians? 🇨🇱
