Valor

Many people don’t know about my journey. I’ve been trading NFT since 2021 but I’ve been trading crypto since 2013. I am one of those people who sold their eth for a bag of weed. When BAYC was absolutely mooning I was gravitated towards NFTs just like many others. I started with a $1000 worth of eth and got rugged a few times until I had 200 bucks left. I then joined an Alpha server called Dres Empire. Credit to the guy, he gave me opportunity to learn and be a mod. Eventually I worked my way to being a collab manager. This is where I really shined because I was always good at making connections and soon we started getting a lot more profitable collabs. I started spotting projects early and several of them performed well. I still remember securing over 100 wl spots for saudis which ran to 2 eth. Eventually became a shot caller. Started getting deeper in to the trenches. Connecting with more like minded individuals. Got added to Franklins alpha chat on X, at this point Franklin was known to be one of the best traders and owner over 60 Baycs. I shared my calls in the chat often, a lot of time ignored but I never gave up. I made connections with a lot of great people though that chat. I was probably the least experienced in there. Eventually I started noticing that alpha callers just blindly expected their members to follow them without doing basic research. That’s where the idea of funkari was born. To create a community that grows and learns together. Somewhere where I’m not blindly followed but constantly challenged to grow more. I wanted to be around smart people who I can learn from and who I can teach. We ran funkari for free for 11 months after minting a 200 collection for 0.2 eth. Gave free mints to staff and paid 20 percent of the mint funds to the artist. We still have half of the funds in our vault four years later. Since then we have a team of 13 shot callers who call anything from NFTs to memecoins to leverage trades to macro analysis of the market. Our collab network expands over 150 strong. This is a circle of value where we make sure everyone involved gets value and wins. That’s also how funkari gets access to most mints that hit the market. I’m proud of where we are today. It’s been a long road. Especially if you consider that for a very long time nfts were considered dead and alpha group highly irrelevant. In times like these funkari proved its worth and showed how it added value. We will continue to be a positive impact to this space. Many will praise us and some won’t. We won’t stop. Funkfam
