This Week In OPJ + Our First AMA

Everything You Missed This Week

👋 GM, GM everyone!

What a wild week across the entire crypto ecosystem. While our JPEGs are still hibernating, there was a lot of movement, announcements, and, most importantly, top notch OPJ content.

Yesterday, we had a extra special Weekly Recap edition…

An Interview with $TURBO’s Rhett Mankind on Launching a Memecoin with ChatGPT

This episode featured an extended interview with Rhett Mankind, the NFT OG artist that used ChatGPT to launch $TURBO, a new memecoin that’s taken off during the last week. His story is inspiring and fascinating and today, the artist Matt Kane of Gazers fame, wrote his own Twitter thread about what makes Rhett & the story of $Turbo so special.

Carly and Gavin also dig into the whole Blur Blend story and what could be the possible upsides and significant downsides of Blur’s most recent product release.

Additionally, we held our first ever OPJ PRO AMA where Carly, Gavin, & Jacy hopped into a Zoom with OPJ PRO subscribers to talk NFTs, the future of web3 businesses & everything else under the sun. It was *lovely* meeting all of you and we’re excited for the next one.
