Last point about the Summit before I move on. To me it represented the very things that made me interested in building on AVAX:
1. Extremely intentional & detail oriented- they rented out a castle basically, offered cuisines from 4 different nationalities (Indian, Spanish, Italian, British), everything was accessible for anyone w disabilities or other constraints etc.
2. Focus on quality & providing value- the castle ofc, KOLs were given free flight & hotel (I did not accept this offer), all events were basically open bar, everyone in the org was easy to meet & seemed interested in being helpful.
3. Strong focus on culture- lots of art exhibitions, musical performances, relationship building, very little talk of mercenary capital.
4. Very strong diversity- more females by a large margin than any other crypto event, many LATAM & Black individuals, international music & cuisine, zero drama or ego anywhere (for the most part)
5. Strong builder culture- very easy to connect with other builders, everyone talking about ideas, not token schemes.
In short, no lambos, no watches, no bling, no Dubai, no talk of retiring one’s parents, no teenagers who got rich in the trenches, just mature adults, all good vibes & fun.
I just ran across a very interesting project, told them I would help them launch on AVAX, pitched the idea internally, got a green light & then set them up with a gc with Ava Labs within minutes.
I’m literally making no money from this & giving away all tokens to the community. I hold so little tokens, the only way I make a significant amount of money from this is if mcap goes to astronomical levels.
And most of the raised funds (we raised as little as necessary) goes to LP & I also have team & vendors to pay. I have some runway for other stuff like live events & online events (will announce deets soon, plus don’t forget we co-produced best party in London) but you get the idea. Business needs to generate revenue on its own.

Allocating roughly 20-25% of $AIVAX token supply to linear vesting over 3 yrs (exact details being finalized).
How do you qualify for token vesting?
You hold your presale and/or buy more $AIVAX within first 20min. Snapshot taken at 20min. If you sell, transfer or total token amount goes below snapshot amount at any time you LOSE the ENTIRETY of your vesting.
This will be automatic & written into contract. Currently working on the contract w @0xMoonbags .
Which wallets are whitelisted for @AIVAonAVAX first 20min of launch?
1. Anyone accepted for presales 2. Anyone who applied for presale & was rejected as long as real person (trying to screen out spam) 3. Top holders of Ket, Wink, Blub, orbs, all Arena Champions 4. Anyone whose wallet was submitted to me for free airdrop by their community CM (I had advisors helping to connect me w projects)
Trying to make this as fair & community first as possible
Roughly 15 top AVAX communities are whitelisted for the @AIVAonAVAX launch (first 20 min only whitelist wallets can buy). These are same wallets provide to me by your community leaders for free airdrop, so pls check in w them. I’ll publish a full list later.
4th time in London. Always liked it. Gritty, urban, cosmopolitan & diverse. If you like culture, fashion, art & electronic music, it’s one of the most elite places in the world. If you want to drive supercars & talk about money & material possessions w crypto bros, go to Dubai.
AVAX Summit was incredible but tbh I can’t wait to get back to work. Lots of ppl bullish on @AIVAonAVAX but I won’t be satisfied until I accomplish all my goals for the project, which means I need to get back to the lab. We just getting started.
Apparently there’s another useless KOL scoring system called Cookie dot fun. Here is their rank of top AVAX KOLs, not sure how legit but must be somewhat ok if I’m ranked somewhere at the top (as usual).
