(02:30) it’s going to collapse and uh you know there’s just a lot of changes in the world so we have to stay positive I know the Market’s been bad the last couple of days I’m trying to look at my portfolio you gotta stay positive you gotta you know we have to align my favorite one of my favorite there’s so much happening last few days but one of my favorite things is seeing kind of a lot of us used to be kind of these independent people doing things on their own and that’s the beauty of handshake right you
(02:59) don’t need permission from a centralized group you don’t need to ask permission but we need to still work together as much as we can we all are from different backgrounds and different locations and have different opinions and you know political thoughts and business thoughts but I think we need to align under this the goal of making a handshake or this decentralized web work the way we think it should work because there’s other Alternatives blockchain name solutions that have different values than us so we
(03:34) have to um come together at least under this common goal of this new internet while we might have our differences in in our approaches of other things in life okay okay we don’t got too much time because we got the auction and the back the team behind the scenes doing great so they’re reminding me anyways building and staying together and we’re going to come out of this bear Market I think better than ever of course thank you to all these amazing speakers we’ve seen we still have two sessions of speakers
