At @allaccessio , we started thinking of what the entire ecosystem would look like. We spent months brainstorming ideas, how they would work, and how the token would be utilised across different use cases. And then, the world embraced Ai. I panicked. In the blink of an eye, all that was planned had to be redrawn, repurposed, and tweaked to this new paradigm shift. What I realised then was I spent too much time dreaming and assuming how the blocks would play out. When I should just start with one block and continue to piece them together as we build them. And so we did. As long as your product/service is solving a genuine problem - when the world changes it's more likely than not a better way to fix the problem you are solving. Just my thoughts on this happy Monday!

Remember, what people don't know, they can't ruin. This doesn't mean living in fear or paranoia, but rather being mindful of the power of information. In business and life, discretion can be your greatest ally.

I want to safeguard our vision. I am more intentional with what I share and with whom. I want to create a safe space for us where ideas can flourish, relationships thrive, and personal growth can occur without external judgment. The age of social media may drive us to overshare and maintaining privacy can be challenging. But it's worth it. A few strategies I've adopted: 🔸 Selective sharing: I carefully consider what information adds value to my network and what's best kept within my inner circle. 🔸 Building trust: I've cultivated relationships with mentors and peers whom I can trust with sensitive information when I need advice or support. 🔸 Creating boundaries: I've established clear lines between my public and private life, ensuring my family has the space they need away from the spotlight. 🔸 Timing is key: Sometimes, it's not about never sharing, but about choosing the right moment to do so.

Privacy is indeed, power. In Livescape Group's early days; I was eager to share our milestones, successes, and also challenges. I also discovered that all is not what it seems. Competitors were eager to take any sign of weakness or opportunity to exploit. Yes, some people derive pleasure from seeing others stumble. I now have a much more strategic approach to information sharing. Take @allaccessio, for instance. It is an intersection of the new internet and experience economy; and the potential of how that can ripple into adjacent industries - a hugely uncharted territory. We've had to navigate complex technical challenges, regulatory hurdles, and market uncertainties throughout - but I have not mentioned this once. Why?

To everyone in live entertainment: We are one; but divided by circumstances beyond our control. We can be one if we are prepared to sink those differences that are within our control. Work together. It'll be worth the pain when we reshape the industry we love into a fostering industry where everyone wins. That's why I build @allaccessio with the best.

Meanwhile, other pressing issues are barely mentioned: • Mental health support for artists and crew • Addressing sexual harassment and discrimination in the industry • Sustainable touring practices in the face of climate change Is this strategy really setting NSW up to be a "global music powerhouse"? Or is it just a remix of the same old tune? Put this out; let the independents have a sigh of relief that there is support... Keep the conglomerates happy to continue ticking along making their millions of fans?

But here's the kicker: Major labels account for 65% of the market, leaving indies fighting for scraps. Streaming payouts heavily favor top artists, with the bottom 98% earning just $12 per month on average. NSW-based artists made up only 9.2% of the top 10,000 streamed in Australia just last year. The government talks about "championing NSW music," but where's the plan to address these systemic issues? Their proposed NSW Music Prize ($160k total) sounds nice..but come on. It's a drop in the ocean. For context, the average cost to record and promote an album is around $250,000 (estimate).

The more I look into the NSW initiative to bring back live entertainment... the more wary / concerned I am about the government's outlook in comparison to the real issues that are being faced by the industry... Here's another one I found... The strategy boasts about NSW being home to 50% of Australia's record labels. Impressive, right?

In a world where people continue to talk about crypto ai agents, memecoins and pump.fun's shameless streaming feature that brings out the worse in us... I am still adamant and extremely bullish on a world beyond 'fast gains' and 'cheap tricks' to build wealth. Consumer crypto is where it's at. It's not currency. it's connection. We can democratize access. We can leverage blockchain towards authentication We can empower people to take risks on wild ideas that just might change the world. This to me, is meaningful technology. Where innovation can meet integrity. And most importantly, is sustainable.

Fan engagement isn’t just likes and shares. It’s more than a simple math equation like 1+1. I believe that engagement should be about more than just counting interactions. It’s the start of something special. It's about artists and event organizers giving fans the content they crave and creating ways to value experiences that matter. That's why at @allaccessio , we're all in on questing. Imagine this: fans pick their own quests and get involved in unique streams of content. And guess what? The rewards they choose shape their experience, letting creators tailor more personal interactions. So, attending an event? It’s more than that—it's stepping into a story you help write. Fans aren't just bystanders; they're essential parts of the adventure with their favorite artists.

Oasis aren’t doing dynamic pricing for their US tour… This tells us 2 things. 1. Dynamic pricing isn’t the only ‘solution’ and isn’t a necessity of high demand. 2. Fan feedback makes a difference. Artists have the power to do the right thing Fans have the power to put pressure on them to do so. The only reason the band are walking back on dynamic pricing is because of the anger from fans who bought tickets for the UK and Ireland shows. We CAN make a difference. We CAN drive positive change.

Realised that over the weekend I schedule my emails out so that my colleagues receive them on Monday. In the beginning I was assuring myself that it's because I respect my colleagues and want them to have their downtime I've slowly realised that it's actually because I don't want my colleagues to think I'm a workaholic. Sad.

The year is 2026. Crypto is cool again and people are using the first generation of usable onchain apps. Investors finally realize none of this works without real people using these products. Real people have a leg up on speculators because they actually use them. A crypto consumer app reaches $1b. Do you feel it, anon?
