Hey everyone. Welcome to the roadmap. Benzingers NFT show. We've had some great interviews past episodes, pixel vault, art blocks, robotics, the dos pound owning Forex, crypto dads, lazy lions, sub doc sappy seals, and more. We also have some NFP Merck coming soon. Stay tuned for that today's episode, you guys have been asking for it.

We've been previewing it for the past couple of weeks. It is time to talk super bowl because we have a series of cryptocurrency and NFT news items and rumors surrounding the big game being held this Sunday. So stay tuned so you can hear about the commercials and what NFTs might need to be on your radar.

Heading into the weekend. Don't go anywhere. This is the.

all right, guys, thanks to all our wonderful viewers and listeners. If you are joining us, live on YouTube right now. Go ahead and smash that like subscribe depending as YouTube channel and leave a comment in the chat. Let us know that you are here. I see born to be free, of course, telling everyone to smash that so shout out to born to be free for getting us kicked off here.

I want to give a special shout out to our friends at FTX who are sponsoring today's episodes. FTX is one of the largest cryptocurrency. In the world in terms of trading volume and daily users, the FTX app is used by over 6 million people to buy crypto and NFTs, no transaction or withdrawal fees from your phone or computer.

And that FTX trading platform features a theory. I'm an and FTS with no gas fees, you can find out more by going to ftx.us and clicking the link in the description below on this video and also pin to the chat right now. So again, big shout out to our friends at FTX, and we're going to be talking about them a little bit later on when we get into super bowl commercials, I'm getting ready to bring on.

It looks like Brian is ready to go. So it's time to bring on my co-host Benzinger zone. Ryan Moore, what's going on by I'll just live in the dream, like always excited for the super bowl. So excited here I am rocking my Matthew Stafford Jersey. The lions will not be playing in the Superbowl. I know not a big surprise to anyone out there.

 They still have never appeared. But Hey, next year is our year. Right? Brian, that's what they say. But Matthew Stafford, former lion will be appearing in the super bowl. So I will be cheering him on and rooting for the Rams. Let us know in the chat guys, who are you rooting for? Is it the Rams? Is it the bangles?

And with that being said, we actually put out a poll that I'll probably use for an article. So make sure you vote and also leave a comment. And that's what our poll is. What are you most excited about for super bowl? 46? Is it the game, the Rams versus Bengals? Is it the commercial. Is it the halftime show?

Em and em, Kendrick Lamar, Dr. Dre, Mary J Blige and Snoop Dogg, or is it our topic today? Crypto and N F cheese. So look at that vote, Brian, it's looking pretty, even when I saw earlier today, crypto and NFTs had a big lead, but it looks like we do have a lot of sports fans out there too, that care about after all it is the super bowl at the football game.

 But look at crypto and NFT is getting a lot of love in this. What is your pick, Brian? I know I wanted to select all four, but if you had to pick one, what are you most excited? Shoot.  It's hard. I love football in general, so I'm excited about the game I like from, I guess we'll call it a business standpoint and what we do as an enthusiast standpoint the crypto NMT side, I'm pretty excited about it and see what that means.

I know we're talking a lot more about it in a second, but to see what that really means for the crypto space and to see how some of these companies the rise they've had in the last five years, getting to the point where they're owning freaking arenas that hosts Superbowl or different sporting events and they just started out of nowhere and rose to these billion dollar companies.

 It's crazy. It's awesome. And I cannot wait to see what the board apes having store, what crypto.com, Coinbase all these different platforms and projects have in store for the super bowl itself.  I'm excited for. I definitely will. Brian, that is going to get into some of our first topics here.

 So you know, let's talk super bowl commercials first.   I want to remind everyone again, super bowl. 46 will air live on NBC on Sunday. The game kicks off at six 30 Eastern time. Super bowl commercials costs around $6.5 million this year. Brian, some even going for seven to $8 million. Again, depending on when it airs, if it is a prime time spot or not.

 Brian, it is an exciting year. You and I have both talked about this over the years we've seen a lot of  consumer product companies vehicle companies, movie companies use the Superbowl as a way to get their ad in front of millions of people, right? It's the most televised event of the year.

So while that cost seems high, it's also the biggest audience you can get in one swoop with the 32nd ad. So to me, if you're a company and you have the money to do it, I still think it's worthwhile. So with that being said, We are getting a lot of crypto commercials this year, which is really interesting and exciting times for the space.

So up first, our friends from FTX, Brian will air their first ever Superbowl commercial. And we talked about this week. This is really exciting because not only are they airing a Superbowl commercial to try to get new users, they're airing a super bowl commercial and giving away Bitcoin to their users, into people for watching.

 As I said yesterday, the super bowl commercial will air in the second half of the game. And whatever time at Arizona will be the amount of Bitcoin they are giving away. So for example, there on the screen, 8:38 PM, that would mean that they're giving away 8.38 in Bitcoin. So we will find out on Sunday, how much, as soon as that commercial airs, you can head over to the FTX Twitter account, retweet that tweet, follow the rules and have your chance to win.

Brian. This is really exciting because our friends at FTX sat over there, Superbowl commercial to us today, and here it is on screen. So you don't even have to wait until the Superbowl. You do to enter the contest. I want to stress that great point, Brian, you can't win the Bitcoin yet, but here is that Superbowl commercial featuring Tom Brady.

 Great use there. The go and there is his wife to, so of course so both being featured, they have started an FTX ads before. Brian, is this an upgrade that Tom Brady retired and now he gets to be in Superbowl commercials. It's probably more of a lateral move there, but if he can't play in the super bowl, I guess be in a Superbowl ad in the same amount of money.

And I just want to say, can you scroll back the video a little bit, Alyssa? Just like a, oh, a little bit more, a little bit more. Back to where they're at the building. What? One more? Oh, where the ribbon cut right there. That's from parks and rec. Did you guys notice that? I just noticed that. I just thought that was really oh yeah.

Parks recreation. That right there was from parks and recreation. And I think he's in Philadelphia though. I don't know. But yeah, I think it's pretty cool that I got distracted. Welcome to Tampa bay. They say change the Tampa bay sign. See, they're so clever over there. FTX and free Bitcoin, Brian, like that is exciting too.

Yeah, lots of it. FTX has already done some commercials with Tom Brady before, but it's really cool to see them utilize him. Once again, here we have another commercial. I was big into web three and NFTs and crypto too. Like it's his I think that's his new passion and what he wants to spend the rest of his like retirement and life doing is advocating for web three, which I'm all.

 Yeah. And he actually said one of the reasons, or one of his focuses now along with his family is going to be his NFT company called autograph. So autograph is partnered with draft Kings. So you can get some NFTs on their platform, including some Tom Brady once they actually had some Gronkowski ones that I believe we went live today between autograph and draft Kings.

But yeah FTX, Superbowl commercial, again, airing in the second half of the game. I'm going to throw out a guess that it airs right around. Let's call it 9:09 PM Eastern time. But again, that's just a gas and you don't win anything for being right. Brian, do you have a guest or no,

maybe before the first half. Okay. I will say before the first, so I'll go with a it's six 30 Eastern here. So I'd say around 8, 8 30. Okay. I don't know. We'll see. We will see. So we will find out again, FTX, Superbowl commercial. So let's dive in. We've got more commercials to talk about. Not just FTX, although that is one that is pretty exciting with the Bitcoin giveaway.

Coinbase is also doing a Superbowl commercial Coinbase of course, publicly traded. So here at Benzinga we know the Coinbase story. Coinbase has not shared their commercial to my knowledge, Ryan. So they're being a little bit more secretive. They haven't announced a promotion at all. I did see some ramblings and rumors that maybe they launched their NFT marketplace after the super bowl.

And that they're using this big event to be the all-in approach. That would be a huge deal.  But otherwise, what do you think of Coinbase? Do you think that they use it to promote NFTs or do you think they're just going to show off their their trading platform and trading cryptos?

Let's say if I was their marketing head of the marketing department, I would definitely push the NFT platform. Everyone really already knows about Coinbase. Obviously you see claimants, you're going to know what's up, but I would, I'd highly suggest pushing the NFT marketplace and trying to get a stranglehold on that.

So that's why I think. Definitely. We will find out on Sunday again, I have not seen their commercial. Maybe it'll come out in the next couple of days. That is the thing. Brian, when I was a kid, I remember you always had to wait until the super bowl aired, to see all these commercials. Now of course, we get to see a lot of them before which does take away a little bit, but it also leads to more conversation like this, about the big game.

So another company they're no stranger to the Superbowl Anheuser Busch, right? The owner of Budweiser, bud light and hundreds of beer brands, they of course have some of the most well-known super bowl commercials of all time.   You got the frogs, you got the WhatsApp guys, you got the Clydesdale horses and the list goes on.

 They are going to be promoting their bugs. Next brand, which is a zero carb beer that was just released this week. And we showed off that commercial yesterday and featured in that commercial. Brian is the nouns Dow glasses. And if you don't know nouns Dow, you'll be able to see it here in the camera.

Right there. Perfect job from our producer there, get in the glasses on screen. And Brian, this is a big deal because to me, as someone who follows NFT, I know what nouns is, right. But if you do not know what nouns is and you see this ad, do you think that people that are going to search and look for, Hey, what were those glasses in that bud light commercial?

What is nouns Dow get a ton of attention this weekend I'm led to believe so, yeah. So with that being said, the nouns collection on open, see, there's only 204 with an 86 east Florida Bryan or 77,000. I was just doing the math is $277,000 for one for the lowest price one. Yeah. Now, Brian I don't have enough to buy announce NFT.

I want a house before I get to now and I don't own any, but with that being said again, not financial advice, but there are a couple of projects out there that are nouns inspired. They're not official, not from the company, but they were pretty well known when they released. We had a now. Which has a 0.08, four and noun punks, which has a 0.06 east floor.

  Not to say that these have long-term value or a huge roadmap, but do you think we start to see some of these noun  knockoffs are now inspired, inspired, derivative plays. Do you think we see a run on those next week? Yeah, because I think there's always some of that FOMO that happens the thing with announced, which is really cool is how they set it up and why these guys are so expensive.

It's not really the artwork really at all, that makes it expensive. It's your ticket into the Dow itself. And they auction them off daily. And so it's every day. Perpetuate Truity is saying that right where it's going to happen forever. It's never going to stop. So every single day they're going to every 24 hours, they auction new ones.

So when winds each time, so maybe down the road, they might get a little cheaper it's just, it's really cool how they do that. And once you have one you're always in it, and there's just a lot of really cool things that they're doing. So it's, if you haven't checked out now in stout, definitely check them out.

And this partnership with Budweiser is huge for more than just them, but it's really cool how they have everything going down. Yeah, definitely. So again, nouns is going to be featured in that bud light commercial. And again, if you don't know what nouns are, they're going to get a lot of attention.

  It's not financial advice, but Brian, I definitely looked at some of those derivative plays today. And I feel like we could see a run on noun plays next week. I also think of course some of these other projects we're going to talk about may get some derivatives made or a run as well.

So keep an eye on nouns, keep an eye on some of those derivatives  and maybe it can be a short-term trade next week. Like a stock would be, but again, not recommending, not financial advice, just what I am watching, going into the game. Brian, we also have a super bowl ad coming from crypto.com.

So crypto.com similar where they have a crypto trading  offering, they also have NFTs, right? I actually saw, they just launched NFTs of Terry Bradshaw, the legendary Superbowl a quarter. What do you think crypto.com uses the Superbowl to promote crypto NFTs are a mix of, I'd say it's going to be probably 80, 20 and of Ts crypto, because they are really pushing the NFTE stuff out.

 I get so many emails and different things. I see their in platforms everywhere. I don't personally use  crypto.com very often. But I did whenever they're in Ft platform first dropped and there wasn't this huge race against open sea and everybody before open sea was the main one go-to and it's pretty cool, but they price out and they had a lot of big sponsorships and a lot of big collaborations with like big celebrities.

So you're priced out, but I would, I'd highly  I think that they're going to definitely push the NMT marketplace because that's what everyone's doing and that's, what's making money. Yeah. And crypto.com. For those who aren't familiar, they already have been airing lots of commercials, right?

They're the ones who have Matt Damon. So it is the future favors. The brave is, or fortune favors. The brave is the slogan that they're using right. There it is. And Matt Damon going walking through different times of history and then talking about  it's a commercial of course for Bitcoin.

 So to me, I feel like you said, Brian, crypto.com. I think they use their commercial to, to talk about NFTs, they've already gotten the crypto story, the Bitcoin story out there. I think it's probably time to do something else and create more brand awareness. So we'll see.

I also saw in the chat while we're on the topic of Matt Davis, Where was it? A Tomo said Coinbase is rumored to have made a production with Ben Affleck directed by an also starting Jimmy Kimmel.  Brian, we see lots of celebrities in super Superbowl ads. So this of course wouldn't be a big surprise, right?

If there was a celebrity in the Coinbase ad, but I think it'd be pretty interesting if we saw  Ben Affleck and Matt Damon who are like best friends, on different sides and different crypto companies here, that could be a good storyline. What do you think. Yeah. That, that is definitely interesting.

I don't, I've never heard this rumor and if it's true, that's kinda, it's wild and I don't know what Jimmy Kimmel  he has a board eight, but I don't think he's really in the crib. I don't know. I don't know much about it. I just know that he does have a board ape and has talked about NFTs on his show, but that it's just a strange mix of people that are getting into it, who Coinbase can reach and whatnot.

That's neat. Definitely. And then also we have so far so fi isn't necessarily the NFT side, but they are crypto. They have a crypto trading platform. And if you don't know, of course the S the game super bowl, 46 will be played at sofa stadium. So you're going to hear a ton this weekend. And they are also airing a commercial. And again, it's another one where I haven't heard exactly what they're doing with their commercial. They do have a bank charter that just happened. They're trying to get people to ditch their banks and sign up for so five accounts. So the question is do they use the Superbowl to try to get banking customers or knowing that there's other crypto companies airing ads?

Do they try to go after that crypto crowd? What do you think Brian, what's the best play for sofa here. So from what I can see that, that how they market themselves as they have the APY and the staking kind of aspect, but it's like really easy user-friendly you don't even have to be in crypto to do it.

 They are also one of the ones kinda like Coinbase, where not your keys, not your crypto it is safe there. So it's not like a worry that something's going to happen to it. I'd imagine that they're going to go after the banking customers over the, like trying to take away from Coinbase or other ones for like crypto trading only because they don't really have a lot to offer on the crypto.

Like day-to-day trading. If you want to be an active crypto trader, but they do have a whole lot. If you want to hold and gain APY, have it easy, like a better savings account and just utilize what crypto and blockchain cryptocurrency is made for and getting money and kind of being on that side of the ballpark.

Yeah, definitely. And the nice thing about all these rumors and all these guesses from Brian and I is we're only a couple of days away. So we're going to get those questions answered on Sunday during the game another crypto company related to the super bowl, we have Binance, Brian, I don't, I think you saw this is Binance is running a kind of super bowl promotion, right?

Not necessarily a super bowl commercial, but they are going to give away and FTS during the game. And what they're doing, this is really interesting because we just talked about Matt, Damon, Ben Affleck, if you can scroll down Alyssa, I want to make sure I get this right. And Ryan's in the chat who wrote this, but I'm pretty sure that the thing with Binance is that every time there's a celebrity.

In a crypto commercial, they are giving away a polo app to people that are watching the game. Yeah. So their new ad is don't listen to celebrities about crypto, which is really interesting because we're seeing a lot of celebrities in crypto commercials. So it's a way for Binance to differentiate themselves.

Although I will say that Binance also uses some athletes in their promotions, so it's a little interesting there, you can see them right there. And a musician of course, J Balvin there, Jimmy Butler and NBA player. But this is interesting, Brian. So again, it's this a good way for a crypto company.

Maybe if you don't buy a commercial to still run a promotion with the big game going on to reward some of your users and maybe new users, what do you think? That thing is a great idea. And I really liked that aspect of they're like, Hey, don't listen. All this. Be a part of the whole movement as a whole, don't just listen to certain only certain celebrities at ones, but another whatnot just be a part of it.

And everyone likes free stuff. And the coolest part about like his poems or any of these free and MTS is they have a lot of potential to actually have monetary value. So unlike some other free stuff that you get that just as cool, a little trinket or a cool little image or something, some of these can actually be like heirlooms and  you can hold onto them for a while.

And it's, you have a piece of history because this is the first time this has ever happened in all of the history of the world.  Right now this Superbowl itself is making history. So just having something to commemorate that is pretty damn cool. Yeah, definitely. That is what I've got for kind of our Superbowl commercial segment.

So again, if you didn't have a chance to vote in our Twitter poll, make sure you do so for what you are watching are most excited about the game. The commercials, the halftime show or crypto slash NFTs being featured throughout cause I really think that's interesting. And again, I'm excited to do an article about what our Benzinga fans are most excited about for the the biggest game of the season.

Well, Brian, along with commercials, we've got plenty more to talk about with the big game. So a story we chatted about last week was the continuation of sports and FTS and everyone who attends super bowl, 46 is getting a free NFT through a partnership with ticket master and the league. So if you didn't know, during the season, the NFL did kind of these ticket replicas as NFTs, I believe they are on yeah, the polygon chain.

 I was able to buy some of the the team ones, but I've not gotten any of the playoff ones. But what do you think Brian, they're going to give these away for free. What percent of people that attend the game, do you think, try to list those right away and maybe make some of their super bowl ticket price back.

And do you think a ton of people that missed out on going to the game are going to scoop these up as a memorabilia item? I think you'll have a lot of people you don't know. Cause I just said like how I just said that this is a part of history and this has never been done before and there's a new sub, so it can go either way.

There'll be a ton of people that are going to sell to make a profit, because like we were talking about it off air where I tried, I was gonna thinking about buying one of the NFL tickets that commemorates the the the super bowl game against the Rams with bangles. And we talked about it last week on the show and I came close to buy one, but I was like, I don't know if I want to do.

And so I ended up not, and the next day they were, so they were only 2 95 for one, the next day, there are songs like $1,200. I don't know how much they are now, but yeah I think you can make an easy money. I don't think you'll make your money back on your super bowl tickets. Cause those are pretty pricey plus parking, everything he did, but you can still make enough.

 I think that holding it is more valuable than trying to sell it and make a profit or try to make a null and void your costs it's to each their own. I think that they're pretty cool. And I think that holding it has a lot more value in a lot more potential than trying to rip it off at the, from the get go.

Yeah. Definitely an interesting take. I was looking at the site and Brian you're right. The road to the Superbowl. So the one that features the re. Yeah, the cheapest price is $1,250. And the one that has the bangles, the cheapest price, it's $1,050. And again, those were priced at 2 95. It's actually interesting because the conference championship game of the Rams is only selling for 199, which is what it priced at and the divisional playoffs, same thing, 149, which is how much it was priced at.

So the ones that actually say super bowl on them and have the super bowl logo, we're already seeing heavy demand for those. So I think that bodes well for these tickets from the game and the one thing, Brian, we talk all the time about supply, right? So when you have a collection like board apes where there's 10,000, so there's only going to be 10,000, right?

That's not that many to think about. There is. Capacity at Sophie stadium of 70,240. So assuming everyone goes and claims they're NFT, which I'm guessing not everyone will. Cause some people won't or just don't know about it. There could be over 70,000 of the super bowl tickets. So do you think the high supply could hurt these being listed for a super high price, but again, they're free.

So anyone who lists their they're making money off of it, they got it for free for going to the game. So I don't know if you get one, I don't know what you'd even start the list at, because if you're the first one to list, you get to set the bar and everyone's going to undercut you. So I'll definitely be watching on probably Monday or Sunday night, see what these start to get listed.

Because I really think fans are gonna want a piece of history here, if your team ended up winning the super bowl. So of course, if the Rams win the super bowl the random yes, definitely to have on that. And like maybe something crazy happens and we break a record. It just it all depends on what happens during the game, if nothing special happens.

And it's just a normal game where I guess that's impossible at the super bowl, but if it's just like a back and forth and it's boring, man, maybe it might go a little lower, but I'm assuming this is going to be a pretty big one. And I think that coming even like closer to Sunday, we're gonna see even more surprises come out from different companies with different different marketing strategies, different programs and different like giveaways and all this crazy stuff.

So it's just, it's I think we've said, I've said it maybe five times now this is the first time it's ever happened. And I'm very excited to see where it all takes, where it all goes. I can't. Yeah. So with that being said, Brian not just the commercials, not just the fans. We also have some players and some halftime performers to talk about.

So I want to bring up Von Miller first. So if you don't  for our viewers. Von Miller is a defensive player for the Los Angeles ramps. He's a former Bronco. He is one of the key building pieces that the Rams did to really give them a shot to win the super bowl. They added Von Miller.

They added OBJ who we're gonna talk about in a minute. And of course added Stafford and they gave up a ton of draft, picks a ton of capital to do this. But van Miller look at that profile right there. You can already see that he loves him some NFTE. So that is a clone X right there. So clone acts, of course, from artifact that was acquired by Nike.

 This is already one of the the biggest NFT projects out there. Well-known this, I tried to pull up the floor price right now.  What do you think Brian, like if people say bond Miller has a great game are people gonna look up, man? On Twitter. Are they going to see that profile again?

Are they going to search and ask, Hey, what is this profile picture? What NFTs does Von Miller own is clone X going to see some possible interest over the super bowl. We've already got a floor of 13.99, but if the Rams win, I tend to think that Von Miller is going to help that product out.

What do you think? Oh, I know for a fact there's I'm getting a lot of people even now, like family and friends and people from that I talked to forever all are always messaging me, ask me about MTS or crypto. And so the super bowl is going to be pretty much heavily focused on that. Cause that's the talk of the year.

And  I think you're going to see a lot of people, like you said, they're going to go to as Twitter people that might not be in this space, it will be like, what the heck is this guy? Why does he have a cartoon? What the hell is this? This is stupid. And then maybe  maybe I'm a little bit more curious, cause there's a lot of talk about it.

And then they see the price tag because a lot of people don't believe it. They see the price at $270,000 and you're like, what the hell would that have a fuck? Did that happen? So   people get a lot more interest in it and I think we're going to see I think we'll see a little bit of an explosion in.

 Have a lot more gains in the NFT market side of things and maybe not as effective for the crypto, but I think like a theorem itself and NFTs like different platforms, we're going to see a huge increase in volume with over the next couple of days. Yeah, I think you're, I think you're spot on and that's something we'll probably hit on here at the end of the show too, is the fact that we can trade NFTs and crypto on the weekend and we can't trade stocks.

So like Superbowl normally we'll save that for the end. But Von Miller. So he has a clone acts. He also owns a board ape. So again, board a, one of the biggest projects out there, one of the most valuable Von Miller has that in his collection too. And it was actually previously his profile picture.

You can see it right there. We've got the cowboy hat.  This is an interesting one. We also have the fact that he owns a crypto.  So again, very interesting that a player on the Rams and here you can see his portfolio. He's got a ton of NFTs, but crypto. Board ape clone acts three of the biggest projects out there.

Von Miller alphabet. He's right there on screen. We had them on for an interview months ago. That's a cool one. That's a smaller one. You could see that football trait. So that could be an interesting there's crypto dads. So some of these smaller ones, Brian, maybe you start to see get some interest over the weekend because of these players or these musicians also owning them along with the bigger ones.

What do you think of that?  If you're a person who's into NFTs, Von Miller on the screen here that he owns NFTs. You immediately try to go find his open, see, and look and see what he owns and start to get into some of those projects. Or do you just go, Hey, this is this profile picture.

This is the one that he cares the most. I think  maybe the latter, what you said, this is the one he cares about, I don't know. I don't know which one he really likes, but he does have a very selective  collection. I'm sure that he gets sent and FTS all the time from different projects, but you can tell which ones he's a more of a fan of which one is not.

And what's cool is you can print, you can  get a vibe that he's not just doing this from like some sort of a investment firm or for a marketing strategy, or from having someone like  an advisor to do it for him. It feels like he is actually really passionate about it and wanting to collect these and looking all these different projects himself.

So that's always really cool to see, not just something to collect money or just because it's a trendy thing to do. He's actually involved. Yeah. And I, so I was just pulling up his wallet here too.  As Alyssa of course, scrolls in the background here. And if I saw that he owns two board apes and Brian, he also owns two mutant serums that he has not used yet.

 There is some heavy speculation out there spot boom, that, yeah I don't know if he'd be able to pull off the logistics, but when we talk about the halftime show in a minute, there's some rumors that we're going to see some mutant serums. Put to work during the Superbowl and hit a phone in the in the goalpost bangles.

So Hey might happen. That's a throwback if anyone is old enough. Yeah, I definitely remember that. And shout out, we got Logan in the chat mentioning the staffer Jersey again, Matt Stafford, Superbowl. He's probably going to win Superbowl MVP, Brian, but the odds on him to win are only plus 100. So you don't win a ton of money.

Let me tell you something though, because he loves NFTs. I want to root for Von Miller to win the super bowl MVP. Maybe he has a couple sacks and interception of forced fumble and a defensive touchdown. If he wins the MVP Bryan plus $4,500 again, not financial advice to throw money on that bat. I would never tell you to do that.

I'm rooting for Von Miller to win Superbowl MVP. And those NFTs of his will get even more attention. I got to scroll down a little bit here in the doc, cause I'm already skipping ahead. Odell Beckham Jr. Also a Rams player, a wide receiver who like Von Miller  played for a different team and became a building block of the Rams.

  Another interesting piece added to their puzzle. And if you go to Odell Beckham, Jr's Twitter account, his profile picture is dead fellas. So dead Filas is one that we've talked about a lot on the show. They have they're going to be on the Coinbase platform. They were actually the the banner photo for the Coinbase NFT account for a while.

Dead fellas, 2.98 east floor, Brian. This is one again, not financial advice. But if I had to pick one that could really benefit after this week and it'd be dead fellows because it's under three east it's Odell Beckham Junior's profile picture. And he actually has lower odds to win the MVP at plus 2,500.

And again, he's a controversial guy. He could get a lot of attention and a lot of people going to his profile and looking at that dead fellows. So what do you think Brian of dead fellows? That's a pretty sweet one that he's rocking as his PFP there. Yeah. I liked that. I liked the project and I like OBJ because he's been in the crypto and NMT space for, I know it's only been a short maybe a year or two, but in this space, that's 10, 20 years in retrospect.

So he, I think he was like one of the original  athletes to get a crypto punk and a board ape and stuff, and change his profile picture and just  dive into the whole. Crypto aesthetic.   I'm all about it. I liked the dead fellows. I don't have one, so I don't really have any opinion either way on the project itself, but yeah.

Who knows if it went MVP, but we'll see, like you said, it, he does have a ways to go. I think Von Miller might have a better chance. I'm definitely going to be on the Barstool sports app. Pretty much trying to pick and choose which ones I want to go with. So we'll see. Yeah. And  you mentioned crypto punk, Brian.

Yeah. So Odell Beckham Jr. Owns a crypto punk. And not only does he own it, not only was it his profile picture for awhile. Look at that picture. Brian, before one of their games, he actually rocked his crypto punk on his shirt. Look at that flex right there. That is awesome. I love it. And again, Odell Beckham Jr.

Also takes a salary roadmap OBJ. After the super bowl we got to have you on. He also takes his salary and Bitcoin. So Brian will do whatever coin NFTs. This guy is all in on crypto and NFTs. So shout out to OBJ, but again, crypto punk owner, he owns dead fellows. I think dead fellows is the one that kind of watch this weekend, but we'll see, he also owns an ENS name.

You can look at his wallet, he's got a ton of other NFTs in there. Again, some may have been gifted to him. Some he bought, but very pro NFT. So another name to watch during the game, Brian, I hate to bring this next one up because I know it is a project that you had. We had that Adam bomb squad, which now has a floor price of close your ears, Brian, 0.79.

So they have heads and better than the one point, what, like eight, it was like 1.8, the one show when you were talking. So that's when I was sad. I'm not sad anymore. Yeah. So they had a couple tweets out that they have an NFL partnership. And if you look, they have certain traits that kind of have a football team colors and like football helmets.

And there was speculation that if you owned one of those, you were going to get some additional rewards during and after the game. So now, oh, so this is an interesting project to watch. And Brian  I know it is trading higher than when you got in the first time, but again, not financial advice, but trading under one Eve, if this project gets some attention this week, I have to think that it's in play here.

   Another one to put on everyone's watch list, just throwing it out there, my 2 cents and what we do here on the roadmap, Brian, I think it's time to get into the halftime show, right? So this is what a lot of people are excited about. And normally I don't get as excited about the halftime show performance because a lot of times that ends up being a bunch of like pop singers, right?

Although we have had some great rockers and different performers, but this year we have a killer lineup of some  hip hop, rap, legends, all performing. As I mentioned in that Twitter poll those performers, but let's center in on a couple. So we have Eminem again, shout out Detroit closest.

We will ever be to being in the Superbowl with Stafford. And I'm an M I'm an Amazon board ape yacht club owner. So board a, getting a ton of love. Look at that. His profile picture, Brian Marshall Mathers himself is going to perform their speculation. That board ape of course, is going to get mentioned during the halftime show, we're going to see board apes turned into Mutan apes during the halftime show, we're going to see a board, ape, commercial, all kinds of stuff.

And to go along with that Snoop dog, who's performing with him also owns a board. What do you think, Brian, what's your guests here? Do we see board aids? Just get attention because of who's performing or is there actually something happening? Will we see board apes during halftime on Sunday? That'd be really cool.

 I have no idea. I think they'll definitely get attention. Cause everyone has one and it's like the most that them and crypto bunks that are most well-known. Right now I do want to say one thing that we're good. We'll clip out, but Marshall, but Eminem Von Miller, OBJ, Snoop Dogg. Anybody, if you want to come on and talk about NFTs or crypto on the roadmap, you just let us know, just send a DM.

We'll reach out. Let's make it happen. Just anybody who wants to, because anybody you heard very exciting. You heard Brian, we want you all to come on. Brian you saw Snoop dog up there on screen for a minute to his profile picture, actually it looks like out of the sandbox, right? So Snoop dog has a partnership with the sandbox.

So that's another topic that maybe people haven't been looking at because we've been so centered on board ape. Do we get some stories? Performance or focus on the metaverse Sunday is there any kind of hologram, is there any kind of 3d avatar up on stage? Do they all  leave the stage and enter the metaverse?

Could that be something else that's happening behind the scenes? Maybe the sandbox is gonna be. The winter after all that? No, one's talking about what do you think of metaverse in sandbox here? So I don't know if we'll see a whole lot of it  like on the stage or anything like that, but we'll definitely see a lot on Twitter.

I think there'll be a lot of action. We will see a lot of different surprises with different Metro versus in different projects. I know for the past, probably two weeks or so on multiple different spaces that we've had in help. We've had a metaverse projects and different NFP projects. But mainly metaverse projects come on and explain Hey, we got some really cool stuff happening for the Superbowl that weekend.

 I can't really drop any just because, but you'll see. But there's so much different stuff that's happening behind the scenes in the metaverse because that's going to be, if you think NMT. The metaverse all of that is going to explode within the next couple of months. That's going to be the next hot topic.

 Definitely keep an eye out for that. And I think that the super bowl was going to start trailing it off and just the rocket ships going to keep on guzzling for, because we're going to see a whole lot of action when it comes to the sandbox or decentral land or  up land. I think I that's one of the only ones I actually play every now and again, but w yes, the metaverse is going to be huge.

And I think there's gonna be a lot of attention to it on social media. Yeah. And I saw someone in the chat  saying that the sand coin, right? So sandbox has their own coin. S a N D. We also have this central land with Manoj. I made an a  those would be two to watch if we do get any mention of the metaverse or digital lay on this weekend.

Again, this is all just rumors, speculation, not financial advice, but the fact that Snoop Dogg has a partnership, he has land in the sandbox. I feel like there's at least a chance, that we'd get a mention. Remember to these performers are going to get interviewed over the weekend, too, right?

They're not just going to perform, they're going to be doing press events. They're going to be doing  after parties, talking to other celebrities. So maybe they can get other celebrities, other athletes onboard into some of these other projects. So this is a huge topic. There's so much going into.

To this weekend. What else do we have on here? I got through Adam bomb squad. Okay. So last one to touch on here. Before we get to some of our questions from the chat. And guys, if you have questions, now's the time drop them in the chat. If you're watching us live, let us know. What do you want to hear about what are your questions about Superbowl or what are your questions about NFT projects?

I see a couple there, Brian, the other NFT project that I'm watching, but this is a harder one for people to get into is dapper labs, the parent company of NBA, top shot. They started releasing their packs of NFL all day. So NFL all day is not like a public open yet. It's still people that were on a wait list.

So I was actually able to score a pack two weeks ago. I haven't opened it yet, but I think I might be opening it live on the show sometime, maybe tomorrow teaser there. So if you guys want to see me open an NFL pack and some NBA top shot packs, let me know in the chat, right? But Brian dapper labs has the rights now to make moments of NFL games for the first time ever.

They're going to be able to make these moments from the super bowl and then put them into packs in a a week or two. What do you think of that? Are we going to see now? We saw this huge run on top shot when it first started and the low supply is this the perfect time now for NFL? All day to come out right around the playoffs and the super bowl.

 Did they time it like this on. Oh, the hat guarantee it a hundred percent and yes, it is a perfect time. It's going to, because the NMT, I think a lot of people are now getting back into collectibles and like we've discussed this multiple times and it's pretty known fact that    NFT or just a tokenized version of an app.

We'll change how memorabilia and collectors items will be utilized and used in the future. And yeah this is a perfect time to start. And honestly, these are these right here could have potential to be the next Pokemon cards. When I was a kid, it was all big. I had every card, I had one of the best charts ARDS.

My parents threw them away when I was a kid. Cause they were always everywhere. And I'm like  20 years later I'm like you guys owe me a hundred thousand dollars, but I don't. But  it could be that kind of thing where you get one of these gen zero gen one or Genesis version and 10 years from now you're looking at a pretty nice paycheck right there.

 So Brian as a sports fan, right? Let me ask you this. So in NBA top shot they of course have moments of three point shots done. Layups and assist. So obviously I think a lot of people tend to want like the dunks, cause they're a little bit flashier.  Then an, a sister, a layup, nFL moments. So we've got  passes, catches. We've got sacks by defensive players. We've got interceptions. Here's the sleeper though that I think out there as a sports fan that I would want to own. It sounds silly. But how about the kicker moments? The game winning field goal.

Because that's what it actually is. The moment your team won a certain game. So I know that they have moments out there of the bangles kicker, hitting the game winner to send them to the super bowl they aren't avail. So that's the other thing. They haven't opened their marketplace yet to sell these moments.

You can just open and buy the packs. Once that marketplace opens. I really think that those kicker moments could be some of the most sought after, because of the historical significance. What do you think, what NFL moments would you want to own and what do you think of the kickers here?  Yeah, you pretty much nailed it right on the head.

There's a, that is going to be really cool. And that's a huge thing too, because you now have, oh, I just tried to pull up the, okay. You mentioned some sports in the while. I was trying to pull up the kick to see. To see what it was and see how it would go down. But that, that's a really cool aspect too, because you have like a.

 For instance, maybe OBJ makes one of his classic one-handed catches and it's the game winning touchdown in overtime. That's a huge thing if you're if you're from Tennessee, for example, like I'm from Knoxville. And  we beat Georgia, Tennessee, V Georgia a couple of years ago in overtime with a hail Mary pass.

And that's one of the most iconic pictures that you can find and stuff like that.  That's huge because if you have it and say it straight from like routers or whatever, the photo service it has it, or licensed by the NFL, it's going to maybe a one of one or one to 10. You now have that.

And it's pretty much the same thing as having like your own piece of art, just like a crypto bunker or anything else. So I think that's really interesting and very exciting because I really want somebody. Yeah. And we got Logan, our boy, of course, in the chat saying that he wants all of the lions classic fourth quarter come back, red zone last second, turnovers.

 There is some interceptions on NFL all day that I have seen. But yeah, I think if I got one of a lion's interception, I would probably have to sell it just because I would hate to watch that moment as the lions fan, but I'm not a lions fan. I know you lock out here, but you know what, Brian we've suffered over the years so much that we just want a university.

And so trust me, I get it. It's part of, it's part of our culture now. And again this is why we root for Stafford in the super bowl, because that way we can feel like we're a part of something and that we're participating so Broncos and a Colts fan. Cause a Beighton yeah, there you go. Oh, I did see a question from Logan asking about those the NFL NFPS from ticket master, right?

So we talked about. Brian, one thing to add to that, right? Is that don't you think during the Superbowl, they're going to at least run, not a commercial, but flash on the screen at some point, go to this website to buy Superbowl NFT tickets. And if they do that, I feel like the price on some of those existing and FTS could go up because those Superbowl ones aren't going to be available until the fans at the stadium sell their ticket.

What do you think if they put that website on screen, do people go after those Earlier relief. Yeah I would assume so the one thing that I think they actually do a pretty good job of, but how they've handled it. And of course they're pretty smart this kind of takes having the bots in it takes that whole aspect out because the tickets are given to people.

If you bought an, a ticket or you have to buy it with a card, you can't buy through a blockchain, but then you can mend it to your then you access it after you purchase it, you send it to you, whatever. But that kind of that's one cool aspect of NFT and tokenization and tickets. And as memorabilia is you're limiting the number of scans and then limiting the number of people like even shoe resellers, where they'll buy a whole stock of Yeezys and then that's what drives the price up.

But now you can't do that with these. Commemorative tickets, which is really cool. And I think that, that adds a lot more value to them in turn, when people try to sell them immediately or they'll hold them for a longer, the value of kind of stay steady and it'll be worth it.  I kinda answered like four questions right there, but yeah, I feel about it.

Yeah, definitely. All right. I think that's a ton on the Superbowl here. We did get some other questions. Brian, why don't we talk about Kara foo for a minute? This was one that you brought up a minute ago and I saw in the chat, I forgot who brought it up now. But let's pull it up. Oh, here it is.

Vitale's thoughts on Kara Fu revealed tomorrow? Brian, this is one that I had actually forgotten about. I knew the name again, 154,000 followers on Twitter and a discord of 88,000. So a big following and here's something to throw out there. On Twitter. I have 73 followers in common with Kara Fu.

And again, I follow a ton of NFT accounts. That means there's a lot of people following this. So this is unrevealed, right? They're not all bots. It's unrevealed right now. And we already have a floor of 3.78, and Brian, speaking of supply, there's only 5,555 available. That's why your price is so high right now.

 Demand is super high. Supply is super low. My guess is that when we get a reveal, we see a bit of a dip, but with that many people out there, I tend to think that we actually go higher than that floor price maybe next week, depending on how strong that, I mean that art looks cool.

Those colors jump off the screen. Brian, I don't know anything about their roadmap. I'll have to get one. I'll have to do some digging on that. You can't get one now because they meant it out, but you can buy one on open. But  yeah, so to answer your question in the chat  I would hold it going into the reveal based on that demand and that low supply, but I think we see maybe a short term debt, but I think this one could run based on those numbers and the strong interest.

So just my thoughts, not financial advice. I CA I would say the same as this is not financial. This is something I personally do. And I don't recommend I, I'm not gonna recommend it out. But what I personally do is I would never sell at the reveal of anything cause there's going to be a dip. And that's when you're going to see the rip, it'll either fall or jump, but you have a higher chance of, I have a higher chance of success of making a bigger ROI.

If I hold through, instead of gambling to see how it interacts with the community and everything. So I don't know why people would sell Amelie after seeing it, unless you have a cup, like unless you have four or five of them, but if you only have one or two, just I would just hold it out.

Not financial advice and I will no, not financial advice. Here's a good question. Let's say you decide to sell before the reveal, right? Let's say maybe you meant five of something. You sell a couple to get your money back and you hold the others. Okay. Let's say you do that. Do you go after the reveal and look at the ones you sold or do you just know that those are forever gone and you don't want to look in case they were rare personally?

Yeah. I'd forget about it. I don't look back because then I'll just soak and I'll just be like, and feel bad about it. So I just I do the same thing with stock trading or crypto trading  try to keep emotions out of it. And if I take a loss and then I get out a stupid time that shoots back up I learned my lesson.

I just onto the next. Yeah. I have a tendency to still go look, which is my problem.  Portraying yourself here you are. And that's the thing  yeah. In the list of saying that she looks back as well. Yeah.  It's torture, but it's just my, my my nature to want to go look and see.

But yeah, like you said, you, you do have a tendency then to sulk and be upset, be sad. So you my advice out there is if you sell before reveal just take your profit and don't look back, look at, look forward and just turn off the computer. Look at the next project, right? Find your next one.

 We're running out of time here. I did see a. Of course Logan and the chat mentioning heart project. I saw Ryan mentioning height bears. Brian height bears was on the top 10 lists. We talked about yesterday for sales volume last week.   This is one that I didn't know a ton about, but I was following from behind the scenes.

I haven't owned any, they are pre-review pre reveal as well of supply at 10,000 and a floor of 0.6, five. I actually kinda like that price  on a pre reveal with a lot of hype  pun intended behind it. So you know, not financial advice, but definitely has been on my watch list, Ryan  through doing research and writing about it.

I think they look cool. They have a large What's the name of the, I can't think of the the cause. Yeah, right outside in front of the Benzinga headquarters, shout out to the Benzinga HQ, downtown Detroit. You can see that cause statue also shout out to our boy, Logan in the chat saying great show and smash the like, and Ryan.

Yeah. Shout out to those guys  great crypto and NFT content here. I want to tease everyone. I mentioned it a little bit with the NFL pack, I think, depending on what happens tomorrow, I think I might be opening some top shot and NFL packs. I know you're going to be a way, Brian, so I hate to do that without you, but we want to keep the show going.

So anyone in here watching or listening, if you want to see me open some top shot packs and the NFL pack that I got that hopefully as a kicker moment. Leave a comment right now in the chat, or hit me up on Twitter and say open them packs. Or you can say wind packs like Logan did earlier. Let us know Brian will be back.

 I'll be back tomorrow. We'll be back next week. We have so much talk about next week, right? Because now we get to follow up on all these Superbowl projections and predictions. So very exciting times, big shout out to our sponsor FTX for today's episode and sponsoring the show. And again, watch the super bowl, find that FTX commercial retweet it for your chance to win free Bitcoin free.

 All you gotta do is retweet a tweet that doesn't take very long, and if you're watching the game. Why not.
