SHILL & CHILL 💻 | WEB3 JOBS | ALPHA | TRADING | HOW TO BUILD PROPERLY IN WEB3 ✅
The Spaces gathered the Big Steppers community for a fast‑paced, 3.5‑hour open mic on web3 trading, NFTs, and growth tactics. Host Kubo opened with a Super Bowl anecdote and a successful Polymarket bet executed via Loot.gg, segueing into a community‑centric format. Guests cycled through with shills and updates: tayrare presented the Rare Bunnies NFT collection minting on a multi‑chain launchpad, with Mr. Digit detailing Gravement’s advanced mint mechanics; Smoke teased activities and highlighted a rumored Polymarket airdrop while announcing Big Steppers’ partnership with EveryX_io (no‑KYC leveraged prediction markets) and a $100 SOL giveaway. Builders showcased live products: Neon Soul’s Hollow Scan (an AI deals/collectibles app with web2 revenue shared to NFT holders), Anti On Chain’s Solon Chain and Mutant Bull Bears (plus arcade game giveaways), Wise Ecosystem’s World Mobile Vault (RWA telecom revenue, 20% fixed APR claim), and LA the Bad Guy’s Energy Webis (an NFT‑tied IRL energy drink featuring partner communities on cans with revenue sharing). Community‑led turnarounds and fair‑launch ethos featured via Hobo’s Whitefish revival and MLMX’s Midterm token (100% to LP, no presale/airdrop, creator‑fee buybacks). Yao’s CTO (Lambchop) revisited an OG meme coin’s origins, metaverse/stream content, and risk‑management lessons. Throughout, speakers emphasized safety (DYOR, anti‑scam hygiene), organic engagement, and joining the Big Steppers Discord to keep building between Spaces.
Big Steppers Space: Community Growth, Prediction Markets, NFT Mints, and Project Showcases
Format, Host, and Co‑hosts
- Host: Kubo (sometimes referred to as Cubo) opened with housekeeping and set expectations: brief personal intro, then the stage for community shills and project reps.
- Co‑hosts rotating: 32 Dreams, Mist, and Smoke; emphasis on why co‑hosts matter (preventing rugging when the host refreshes; keeping the room stable for multi‑hour sessions).
- Core community: Big Steppers (Discord ~8,000 members), cross‑over with esports communities (notably Vibes and Smoke), and global participation; repeated reminders to follow speakers/listeners, repost the space, and tag no more than 3 friends per reply to avoid X’s spam filters.
Opening Highlights: Super Bowl, Polymarket, and Loot.gg
- Kubo recapped his Super Bowl weekend trading on Polymarket and executing via Loot.gg (a fast trading platform that recently integrated Polymarket markets).
- Specific bet: “Will Bad Bunny perform ‘Titi Me Preguntó’ first?” Claimed inside alpha from a friend-of-a-friend connection to Bad Bunny’s team; closed positions as soon as live evidence suggested outcome (e.g., clothing/entrance cues), leveraging Loot’s quick execution.
- Kubo: “Loot.gg is faster than Axion” (Axion followers are loyal; Kubo emphasized execution speed and new Polymarket PnL cards coming).
Big Steppers Community Ethos and Growth Playbook
- Growth tactics and etiquette (led by Smoke and 32 Dreams; echoed by Tayrer “rare”):
- Repost the space; tag 2–3 people per reply only; bookmark; engage on “Jumbotron” (pinned posts) and replies.
- Follow-for-follow actively across listeners and speakers; pace follows to avoid rate limits.
- Show respect to speakers whose first language isn’t English; give them patient airtime.
- Kubo’s Monday cadence: recurring weekly spaces at ~6 p.m. EST; join the Big Steppers Discord (FF — Friends & Family) for between-spaces collaboration.
Guest Intro: Aiko 100x (Japan)
- Aiko 100x joined early; introduced as a Japan-based “Big Steppa.” Light banter about meeting Kubo in a gym years ago; time zone challenges (8 a.m. Japan). Presence signals Big Steppers’ international reach.
Prediction Markets & Airdrop Speculation
- Zuck (loot affiliate, green badge) and Smoke discussed Polymarket strategy:
- Claim: Polymarket token airdrop could allocate ~60% to the community; FDV sizing implies heavy rewards for high on-chain activity (e.g., “biggest shitter” might get ~$4,000).
- Access constraints: a waitlist of ~180,000; loot integration considered a practical “in.”
- Caveat: These are community claims; treat as unconfirmed and DYOR.
Partnership Announcement: EveryX.io (No-KYC Leverage Trading for Prediction Markets)
- Big Steppers announced a partnership with EveryX.io:
- Product: No-KYC leverage trading on prediction markets (up to 20× leverage), not available in the US (“use your brain” regarding access).
- Activities: The Steppers planned a live NBA wager during the space (with slip screenshots and Discord stream).
- Incentive: $100 in SOL giveaway to one user who signs up and makes a first deposit.
- Branding: Debut of the Big Steppers logo on the announcement creative.
NFT Mints and Platforms: Rare Bunnies, Graveman.io, and Salon(a) Deads
- Tayrer (“rare”) introduced Rare Bunnies NFT collection:
- Supply: 969 one-of-ones,
17% minted (160–167 at time mentioned), ~805 left. - Utility: Real-world farm rewards from a Mexico operation (hydraulics, land, crop planning). Holder reward tiers; additional merch planned (e.g., straw hats), frequent community giveaways ($500–$700+ given back to date).
- Platform: Mint via Graveman.io (described as multi-chain with advanced sales mechanics: phased launch, trait selection, wallet gating). Affiliation mentions include Solana Deads.
- Marketing: “Easter meta” positioning; push to gift bunnies to partners.
- Supply: 969 one-of-ones,
- Mr Digit and Tayrer explained Graveman.io vs. other sites (LaunchMyNFT); multi-chain support and advanced mint options stood out.
Project Showcases (Selected)

- Web3 plan: NFT-gated utility and revenue share from Web2 subscriber revenue; iOS/Android app launches first, then NFT — holders get regional deal filters and lifetime subscription depending on holdings.

- RWA product on-chain: deposit stables into a vault; Wise forwards funds to World Mobile to install telecom equipment; revenues from 3M+ paying customers.
- APR: Fixed ~20% (no token, non-token-gated); focus on servicing the unserviced (3B+ without internet).
- Hobo/Hobbo (Whitefish coin):
- Lore: Originated from “White Whale” dev’s token and subsequent rug; later re-launch and CTO farming abuse. Community (blue-collar “true degens”) took over, purged bad actors]
- Current status: Reclaimed >$100k market cap, organic moves toward previous ATH (~$1.2M). Building new website with a cybersecurity expert, commercials/marketing in progress.
- Emphasis: Community resilience, zero tolerance for “snakes,” sustainable rebuild.
- AI Future Brief: Account focused on practical AI discussion and accessible insights; committed to reciprocal engagement.
- MLMX (corporate account; dev founder):
- Background: In crypto since 2017; past high-7-figure outcomes in 2021; experienced direct major scam by a partner (AWC), pursued federal court and won ~$2M judgment.
- Observations: The single biggest challenge in crypto is “people/egos/greed” — interpersonal friction ruins projects more than tech does.
- Launchpad strategy: Minimize friction layers (no presales, no bonding, no airdrops, no dev/call allocation; 100% supply seeded to LP, locked); use platform creator fees (up to 4%) to buy back tokens (plan: 50% of creator fees to buybacks after 50k MC).
- “Midterm” token: Narrative play front-running 2026 US midterms; minted 2,026 tokens; clean launch via MLMX’s new launchpad; coin tagged public figures for awareness.
- Lazy POS (Lazy Positivity):
- Philosophy: “Lazy” refers to simplifying growth, not inactivity; promote positivity and organic engagement.
- Tech: Exploring Base and Farcaster minis; working with analytics like Federation Alpha (wallet clusters, scoring) and cautioning against bots/boosts.
NFT Energy Drink and Mascot Mint: LA the Bad Guy
- LA the Bad Guy (co-founder, NFP Energy Drink and Energy Webis):
- NFP Energy is a US-based IRL energy drink brand (manufacturing in Miami; LA in Atlanta); active at major Web3 events (ETHDenver, Bitcoin Nashville/Vegas, NFT NYC, Art Basel, etc.).
- Differentiation: Represent Web3; collaborate > compete; cans feature partnered NFT communities with revenue-share on sales (monetize community IP).
- Energy Webis (mascot) NFT:
- V1 issues (trait copyright complaint) prompted pause; V2 launched with corrected art.
- Utility: Webis holders vote on future flavors/formulations (including natural/CBD/THC considerations) and which communities are featured on cans; holders with ≥10 Webis share in energy drink revenue.
- Challenge: Brand/marketing crossover from Web2 to NFT side; building identity and community-led decision-making.
OG Meme Coin “Yao” (Solana): CTO “Lamp Chop”
- Meme origin: Yao Ming’s post-game interview with the famous “whatever/please” face; became a Rage Comic staple (2009–2010) alongside Trollface/Wojak.
- Launch path: One of the earliest Pump.fun coins (Oct 2024), bonded months later, then rugged by original dev.
- Revival: Troll’s rise drew whales to OG memes; Yao pumped from ~4k to ~150k then retraced; new team acquired supply around ~19k MC, built Telegram, X page, website; ran repeatedly to ~1M+ MC (ATH ~1.4M) before macro meme dip.
- Current status: Stabilized floor (~75k MC), jeet exit mostly complete; rebuilding with organic content, daily posts, frequent livestreams (Yao games/charts), and a VR/metaverse “portal space” for community hangouts.
- Strategy: Keep it a meme-first project; consider staking/rewards later only if community supports; explore listings (CoinMarketCap outreach costly; careful on marketing spend timing).
- Lessons shared (scam caution):
- Avoid “Chinese whales inbound” DM scams; real CN marketing doesn’t happen on X due to legal restrictions — it’s done in Telegram/WeChat. Any Chinese X accounts shilling meme coins are likely fake.
- Don’t throw money at marketing against macro headwinds; stabilize supply/floor first.
Security, Etiquette, and Tooling Reminders
- Scam hygiene:
- Always DYOR; treat leaks/alpha and airdrop claims as speculative.
- Use website safety scanners (check creation date, flags); treat inbound DMs (call group offers, CN “whale” pipelines) skeptically.
- Beware of fake airdrop pages and wallet connectors.
- Space etiquette and growth:
- Respect language barriers; keep jokes clean; avoid risky content that endangers accounts.
- Tag max 3 per reply; pace follows to avoid rate limiting.

Notable Quotes and Highlights
- Kubo on co-hosting: “If the connection gets rough, I can refresh without rugging the space; that’s why co-hosts are essential.”
- MLMX on the biggest crypto challenge: “It’s the people — egos and greed. Tech isn’t the blocker; interpersonal friction ruins more projects than anything else.”
- Whitefish on community resilience: “When you get a snake in the coop, you must get them out. We bit the bullet so holders didn’t have to; now it’s organic and back to six figures.”
- Yao on scam awareness: “There’s no crying in the casino. Learn the patterns; stabilize before marketing.”
Summary
