"And like I mentioned, Andrew and Jordan will send me some of the other cool little things that they're up to as well. But yeah, if you guys want to get one of these genesis keys, I'm going to get one. From Jordan and Andrew, and I just think it's super cool. And I'm kind of a dummy with all this stuff. So if I can do it and you're listening in, you can wrap your head around it too. I read a little bit about this stuff every day and I'm slowly learning and I've gosh, I've been kind of dollar cost averaging a little bit here and there in the crypto for about 8 years and I'm no whale and I'm no crypto catalyst and I'm no blockchain evangelist like these guys are, but it is a cool new frontier and as we move away from at least I think I will more and more from Fiat currency. I think these are the type of areas where you want to consider putting more of your energy and investments. And guys, I did want to ask you too. But before I let you go. Obviously, when you're launching something like this, you're working busy. And you might even be working overtime, maybe sleeping less, you know, I don't know, but you shared with me some of your bio hacks already, but what I want to know a little bit about, maybe both of you can each share. Top thing that you do, whether smart drug or neutral or lifestyle modification or something like that that you think is kind of a cool little secret tip. Maybe you've been keeping to yourself. I don't know, but as a way for you to really get good energy and productivity, when you just got a bang through a long work day, what's your go to? I have been listening to these entrepreneurial podcasts, not yours, yours is more health, but these people who say all this stuff about like don't sleep over. I always prioritise sleep, diet, and exercise. And those things, I know that the foundations, but it's such a BS, man, when people are like, oh, don't sleep or sleep less. I mean, yes, on occasion. That's it. But I operate at a 110% when I sleep 8 hours. I operate at 90%. That 20% is all the difference. So I would say those three things and the one, if you want to cheat code, it's a new calm device. I will, when I'm crashing in the afternoon, I knew calm for like 20 minutes or whatever the other device he said that probably works as well. The brain top? Yep. And then I'm literally about to do a lot of these. I've got to know another talk after this. I'm actually going to, I'm like, man, that was a hardcore session with you guys. And I'm just going to go and you come and then be fresh as in 20 minutes, I'll be fresh as before the podcast. All right, well, I'm sorry for exhausting you, Andrew. How about you, Jordan? What's your go to? A giant giant ass piece of nicotine gum or what is it? It's funny. We have nicotine spray in the office. And I do take a hit of it every now and then. I definitely think we got that. It was either from the biohacking group or from you, bed, but we do have the nicotine spray. It's exactly what Andrew said, but more importantly, I do two things. We have a rebounder as well. Change your physiology, change your state, do like ten minutes on the rebounder, just a little trampoline in the office. Just like jump up and down, get all that negativity out, change my breathing, get my heart rate accelerated. We got a ping Pong table in. If I'm in a really bad rut, get a quick game of ping Pong in. But the other thing, I got to just tell you, and this has been such a difference maker for me. I am so obsessed with where we're going, that I really do forget how far we've come. I'm so obsessed with, oh my God, we have all of this left to do to get the product launch. You get the genesis key keys ready to get the marketplace ready to really launch this thing. Make sure it's like pixel perfect and all of that. And you really do just forget to be grateful. You forget to like, you know, give your thanks if your spiritual, for those listening, it's like, you know, don't forget to pray, right? If I think it's really important to just be thankful. So I do like a 5 minute gratitude journal. That grounds me a lot. I feel totally different when I just anchor on three things I'm grateful for. I do some very serious intention setting. I use this app called the 5 minute journal. It's pretty great. You just throw out it's like all set up for you. You can upload a picture. Just to kind of remind you of that day, gratitude, three things you want to accomplish that day. And then you write some like affirmations. I think that whether it's like the inner bitch that negativity, the voice that talks to us, just kind of taming that and writing down some just some words of positivity. Man, I do that daily. I feel so different if I miss a day, I actually do feel worse. So those are my little tidbits. I don't know where I would be without gratitude a little bit of fitness and of course some of that nicotine spray. I dig it. You can do a little nicotine spray and then write down your graceful for it. You guys, I'm serious. If you have more resources, like I mentioned, I'm gonna link to Android's concussion protocol and into this NFT dot com site where people can get their genesis keys for the next couple of.

"And one other thing related to this to a certain extent, Andrew was, as you were explaining, this entire protocol that you put together, you mentioned that you began to run this biohacking group online, which I think is a Facebook group. Can you explain what that is and where that fits into the equation? Yeah, I mean, look, join the I've always been really into optimizing our minds so that we can execute on building these projects. And Kyle, who is also part of the team. And I will like, look, community sourcing these sorts of these sorts of because it's so hard to know what is actually working and what is not. So we decided to put a little group together called the buyer hacking group or by a hacking group dot com on and it was just a Facebook group. And you really exploded and so now it's a pretty active group. We've met a lot of great friends through it. And we kind of share tips and tricks that help us sort of use biohacking and use health to optimize, not just our business life, but our wildlife. And that's kind of an interesting theme because I consider, for example, my relationship to Jordan, my health, my romantic relationships, and or the general view of my life as a kind of more complete approach. And so by hacking is a part of that, but very important part of it as health is. And that's kind of the auspices and the sort of feel of that group. Yeah, Jordan, by the way, Andrew described you a few minutes ago. I don't know if you heard this as hardcore keto. What exactly, what exactly is he talking about there? Yeah, so, you know, it's funny because our worlds really, really collided. I used to be really overweight. I mean, just not a healthy guy. I'm already not on a big frame. I'm like a 5 foot 5 on a good day. You know, height wise. And I'm from buffalo, New York. I just kind of grew up on the classic American diet. I want a ten kids, three brothers, 6 sisters. And my mom always just made one thing for dinner. You know, I like to joke. The reason I often get compliments, people are like, hey, you can pitch, you got a good sales pitch. And I'm like, yeah, that's because I always had to sell my brothers and sisters to convince my mom to make what I wanted to have for dinner, which was kind of always like pasta or something really starchy. I gained a lot of weight. I just, I don't think I ever really understood what nutrition was. I didn't really know what a carbohydrate was. And I made this pretty rash life change. I left, didn't finish school, and really before I was 20, I ended up moving to Budapest Hungary. Somewhat random. I heard there was cheap beer and beautiful women. Turns out that's true. But leaving, I think my American dietary lifestyle and going to a place with a lot less genetically modified food, much more of like that whole like farm to table culture. I quickly realized like, wow, I'm eating a lot of packaged goods coming from the states. There's started eating a lot more produce. I learned what a whole foods diet could be. And then I found this thing. I don't want to hype it up. It's called CrossFit, probably heard of it. But it was just high intensity intervals. Never heard of it. Nobody who does it ever talks about it so it's kind of like a secret. It's like veganism. Exactly. It's kind of like a good secret. So, you know, I don't want to hype it up or promote it, but what I liked about it was it was the first time that you kind of get what CrossFit does so well is you finish a workout. You look like an absolute idiot. I mean, there were women in this class squatting more than me. I know like strength whatsoever. And then I ended up working up to squatting more than 2.5 times my body weight. And in that process, it's just, you know, it's all of this high 5s, high 5s. You kind of get that they build community Andrew's talking about biohacking community and coming together. I think CrossFit got that really great. So here's this gym that welcomed me in. It was called Reebok CrossFit. If you're in Budapest, there's not that many CrossFit gyms. So this is an amazing one to drop in on. And they're the only one in Budapest that had English speaking classes. So started working out and then all of a sudden I find Andrew, I think it was probably you who brought this to me. But this whole notion of eating a high fat diet started reading up on it and yeah, I got really religious on it. I've got, I think I have three different devices to take my ketone levels. I do it while I travel, actually, I have a rule when I travel now, when I'm on a flight, I use it as a fasting day. So I fast, I fasted the entire way to actually did a 96 hour fast to fly to Amsterdam from New York while I was living in New York, gave a speech on hedera and blockchain and cryptocurrency at a conference, didn't eat anything while I was in Amsterdam, which was somewhat challenging because I did make it to one of those coffee shops and did smoke some of that stuff. And I got super hungry, but didn't eat and flew back to the states. And I love how I feel with ketones in my body. I love how my brain operates. I have all of this mental clarity and focus. I don't think the diet is one size fits all for everyone, but for me, and for my body type, I think I got rid of all of that inflammation. And I generally feel healthier, which was new for me. Coming from buffalo eating chicken wings. Yeah. Yeah, totally. And I mean, honestly, you know, a big part of it is, of course, the elimination of the things that you would have been eating on a non ketogenic, you know, it sounds like a standard American buffalo wing diet. But a big part of it is, of course, also the upregulation of ketone bodies. I personally, I've talked about this before on the podcast..

"All right folks, well, strap yourselves in for a wild ride today because while most of my guests are indeed in the realm of health and biohacking and fitness, my guest today are not only into all of that, but they're also into this idea of health being about more than just biohacking. These guys have studied up on wealth. They've set it up on relationships and they also happen to be real experts in the whole realm of crypto and NFTs. And so this is going to be a fun discussion. Andrew masato is a guy who I ran into quite some time ago in New York City, I believe it was doctor Holland Chen, I think, who might have introduced us, but anyways, I got a chance to hang out with Andrew and kind of see him in his space over there a few years ago. He owns biohacking group dot com. He's a serial entrepreneur. He's an investor. He's very active in blockchain. He was the founding CMO of reserve, which is backed by Peter Thiel and coinbase and a few others, which is currently at a 1 billion plus valuation. He was the founding CMO of another company called hedera hashgraph, which was backed by Google and IBM and Boeing with a fully diluted 10 billion plus valuation and crypto. Recently launched an NFT based website that he'll be talking about quite a bit as well. And he's lectured on Internet marketing, Harvard Business school. He founded and sold higher click SEO agency. He's lectured at Oxford University. He is widely quoted by a lot of industry leaders on growth marketing, he has worked as a lawyer in the UK as an investment banking analyst in Australia. So this guy is up to quite a bit. He's a real renaissance dude. Andrew before I introduce your partner in crime, he's also joining us, say hello, just so people know your voices. Hey, Ben, that was quite the introduction. I'm going to make sure that my staff never give that length of introduction. Again, to anyone. You know, people send me these bios and you know, I got to fill people in, hey, at least I'll help to make you credible, ma'am. I appreciate you. Make you sound smart. Jordan is my other podcast guest on today's show. Jordan fried. He's a blockchain evangelist, a crypto capitalist. He's currently the chairman and the CEO of immutable holdings, which is a blockchain holdings company. He founded and operates NFT dot com, which is a relatively newly launched website. We'll be talking about as well as immutable asset management. He was also part of the founding team behind hetero hash graft. I served the senior VP of business development there until the end of 2020 and they signed partnerships again with Google and IBM and Boeing and LGE electronics and that kind of launched that particular offering into being one of the top hundred cryptocurrencies in the world in Jordan is also cofounded and served as CEO of buffered VPN, which is a real popular VPN service online. And Jordan's been involved in Bitcoin and crypto since 2012, so Jordan, welcome also to today's show. Thanks, Ben. Big fan and super excited to talk about the intersection between biohacking your world in crypto because I think there's a lot more overlap than people realize. I actually want to get into get into quite a bit about that. But first of all, tell me about you guys a story. How did you meet and what's been the journey of you two working together? Well, we have really been through quite a few companies together to join in and I our story starts, data back in, I think, close to 2010 over ten years ago, I'd started higher click Jordan came in as sort of almost like a CEO, really, and he built that company up. The one I started to sell, eventually he started buffered VPN, and I went on to do Internet marketing. And I think the and then in 2017, we reunited after he just sold Buffett VPN. We reunited and started a hashgraph together. And man, that was just timing within 6 months we had raised a 100 million at a $6 billion valuation. Now it's at like between a ten to $20 $1 billion valuation. And then he came to me more recently and it's just so hard not to say no to this guy because a is a great salesman and B and I have many passions together and we've been together for such a long time. I think that's one thing to emphasize we have kept a strong bond over time is someone I deeply trust and love and our paths have collided and we've just added a lot of value to each other. So I'm really grateful for that long-term relationship and for our continued success all the way up to what is now us cofounding NFT dot com together. Yeah, I've got to give the other perspective Ben because the truth is, Andrew's always been one step ahead of me. He's a few years older and definitely a few years wiser, but when he was just getting into performance marketing or sort of actually I would say just getting out of performance marketing and moving on to the next thing. I was really just getting into it. When Andrew and I had met, Andrew has been over a decade now. It was clear to me that this guy is on the bleeding edge of what's coming, often before other people realize it. You got to realize at the time we were doing search engine we were doing search engine optimization. It was still a relatively nascent industry. It's a cottage industry for those that don't know, optimizing your search profile. So you rank higher in the SEO cert pages. It's very lucrative. If you can rank number one for best credit cards, that's a $100 million a year keyword for companies.
