How did your partnership with Lotus come about, and what do you hope to achieve with this collaboration?
After making a name for ourselves in the crypto and NFT world and maintaining a clean name during the temporary downfall of crypto, one of our teammates introduced us to Marco. While Marco was looking to get into the NFT world, it was a no brainer for us to get involved.
Can you talk about your experience as an entrepreneur in general, and any challenges or lessons you’ve learned along the way?
I’ve never been able to hold a regular job for more than 2 weeks. For as long as I can remember I have been working for myself. So I don’t have much to compare my struggles to. But I can tell you that in order to achieve your dreams, you cannot have a Plan B. If you do, you will never give your Plan A all the attention you can in order to achieve it. I have been homeless multiple times. In order to stay true to my vision I have slept in cars, stair cases, roof tops etc. and never took my eyes off of the ball. That’s how much you need to want it. It must be more important to you to achieve your goal than most things around you. It’s not what you want, but how bad you want it. If you want it bad enough, the universe will eventually gift it to you.
What other projects are you currently working on, and how do they fit into your overall vision for your career and business ventures?
I’ve been working on my world record for over a decade now. Because of this world record I’ve been able to travel the world and meet with some of the most high end and recognized people in the world. I broke the world record for Most Signatures Tattooed On One’s back. I’ve worked with The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Tony Hawk, Jackie Chan, Stan Lee, Will Smith, Chris Rock and hundreds of other people! That’s just one project, I’m in the works with a few others such as our NFT project The F8 Club. Etc.
What advice do you have for aspiring entrepreneurs who are just starting out?
Find what makes you happy. Incorporate it in a way in which you can make a living and it doesn’t feel like work. And just start walking towards your goal without paying attention to what anyone else says. You are your only limit. And like I said before. It’s not what you want, but how bad you want it.
What inspired you to get involved in the world of NFTs, and what do you see as the future of this technology?
The first time I ever heard of an NFT was when I was with a team in Mexico, in which we were creating videos for social media, and we were the number one page in the world at the time. One of the team members invited a crypto genius to teach us about crypto and I had already had an idea for an NFT involving my back this crypto genius is now my business partner, and we have created a multi million dollar business that came from the idea of the NFT of my back. And as for the future of this technology, there are literally millions of avenues it can go down, but I feel like most of them are very positive and will facilitate a lot of things.
Can you tell us more about your NFT projects, such as F8 CLUB and HAKOIRI, and the ideas behind them?
The F8 Club is our baby. We started this project from scratch, and just with our connections ended up teaming up with Mark Cuban and his team and also selling out our first drop within nine minutes. I can literally talk about The F8 Club for hours but in a nutshell, it is a multi facet project, which includes a play to earn game, NFT’s charity work and giving back to the community. Hakoiri is a New World NFT project which will include relationships with Netflix, Disney, and a few other potential partnerships.
How do you approach the creation and marketing of NFTs, and what sets your projects apart from others in the space?
To start off with we kind of break everything down to zero and then start building a project up with the people’s benefit in mind. We want to appeal to absolutely every genre and every person in the world whether you’re a 93 year old or a young teenage entrepreneur. We try to be as eye-catching as possible no matter who you are. And although this might sound really easy, it’s actually a very complex strategy in which we gather information on trending topics at the time in order to come up with a strategy that appeals to everyone. Also, I’m at the head of the project and I feel like I’m very sexy. I mean, have you seen my face?
What advice would you give to someone who is interested in investing in NFTs but doesn’t know where to start?
I can’t stress this enough. Please do your research on not only the project, but the people running the project. There are a lot of people that promise things and never follow through. It’s very important to research absolutely every angle on the project and every person involved in the project including prior projects that they have been in. Do your due diligence baby!
You recently announced a collaboration with Lotus for an upcoming project in Ibiza. Can you give us any hints about what we can expect from this collaboration and when it will be released?
No. Absolutely not. This is a very high end project for the very elite. All I can say is that this isn’t only an NFT project. This will be a movement. A secret society if you will. If you know, you know.
You have achieved several world records in the NFT space. Can you tell us more about these accomplishments and what they mean to you?
Sure! I’ve broke the world record for most signatures tattooed on one’s back. And although these have not been recorded yet, I’m pretty sure about the following our world records as well. I was the first person to be tattooed by a monkey. I was the first person to tattoo themselves while skydiving. I was the first person to ever be tattooed on a moving motorcycle. I was the first person to ever be tattooed on a JetSki. And this is only the beginning. My team and I have several ideas that will attract a ton of attention to us and what we are doing!
What challenges have you faced in your journey as an entrepreneur in the NFT space, and how have you overcome them?
It’s been very difficult at times because we aren’t the only NFT project out there. There are hundreds of NFT projects and a lot of them are rug pause, and for a lack of better words, pure garbage. This, unfortunately makes it very hard for us as a stable project to be credible. But at the same time we have managed to stay above the garbage and make a positive name for ourselves. Which in turn not only gives us credibility, but at the same time, helps us learn what not to do, and helps us come up with strategies to avoid doing the garbage that other projects have done. We learn not only from our mistakes, but from the mistakes of others. I would even dare to say that we are enlightened like the Dalai Lama, but after recent evidence, it might be better to to keep his name out of anything we are doing.
How do you balance creativity and business strategy when developing NFT projects?
We have an incredible team and balance. Andy is the businessman, and I am more the creative Director and marketing genius. While ANDY speaks facts about the crypto world, and everything that has to do with our projects I am on the other end, entertaining our members with eye-catching things and fun anecdotes, in order to balance out the entire project.
What do you believe is the biggest misconception about NFTs, and how do you address it?
I think a lot of people think that they can just make an NFT and sell it. It’s not like that at all. There Has to be utilities behind a project. There Has to be many things in place in order for a project to work. Sometimes life isn’t as easy as it seems, and you have to put in the work.
What are your future plans for NFTs and your career as an entrepreneur in this space?
To be honest all Andy and I want to do is make the world a better place. We want to give back to the community, we want to help people that need it and we honestly just want to travel around the world and create good deeds and make as many people as possible as happy as we can. That is our main goal!
