Let's VeeFriends

Meta Journeys is a 1:1 chat with collector's of the VeeFriends NFT. The project launched in May 2021 when Gary Vaynerchuk released his hand drawn collection of 268 characters. The characters are paired with attributes that many within his already established community could identify with personally. This affection for our collectibles, the technology of the blockchain, a community of kind and thoughtful individuals matched with Gary's proven track record has given rise to a whole new wave of friendships and business generation. So now we meet often to share stories, ambitions, and a lot of heart along the way of navigating NFTs. Join us and get to know the people at the core of it all, the collector community.

In this episode, Matt Mazzaferro leads the chat with Angelo Santitto. He is our community athletic organizer, avid runner and coach. He holds the Positive Porcupine VeeFriends token, and that is displayed in his leadership. As an early adopter of the POAP he has created unique ways to use it and give back to charity in his NFT athletic community. Give his journey a listen, and join the community he is creating around wellness.

In this episode, Matt Mazzaferro leads the chat with VeeFriend holder Adam Souza. Adam is a cannabis enthusiast, and advocate for industrial hemp. He shares deep personal parts of his journey through life in a hopes to pay it forward. As one of our very own Self Aware Hares he understands the value of inner work. And if you've been here since the beginning you'd know Adam offered to get a tattoo in the VeeFriends Discord if only Gary would give him a GOO. And guess what? Gary took the offer and served him up a Gary Originally Owned VeeFriends token. Then, when Gary and Adam were in Let's VeeFriends clubhouse together, Gary asked him directly about it. It was an epic moment many of us got to witness. And Adam kept his word. In fact, he's been documenting it all in his very own Quest to Meet Gary Vee. 

For the live recording come to the Let's VeeFriends Clubhouse on Mondays at 8pm EDT!

On the heels of the Christie's auction in which Gary Vaynerchuk sold 1.2mil in art, we met to chat about it's historical success in conjunction with the cross over of the original art to the VeeFriends NFT project. The five pieces were auctioned at Christie's as "Just Art" with no NFTs attached and took bids in USD. However they accepted payment in Ether, the cryptocurrency linked to Ethereum Blockchain technologies. This advancement and cross over into crypto art was marked the same day 10.01.21 with Curio Cards NFT collection leading the change taking bids in Eth for the very first time.

In the case of Gary's art the five pieces that made their way to Christie's are the Alpha Empathetic Elephant, Gratitude Gorilla, Tremendous Tiger, Diamond Hands Hen, and You're Gonna Die Fly. In fact, its the last one that prompted the discussion for the Let's VeeFriends Clubhouse for this recording. So, I'll ask you...what's one thing you want to do before you die? Listen in to hear everything from Flash-Mob to Outer-space.
