The graphic map is color coded in a way that doesn't follow a particular logical pattern but rather focuses on artistic appeal. Despite this, I was able to connect it in a meaningful way.
The dark colors, such as blues and greens, represent historical movements like liquidity pools before UIG. These areas offer trends, averages, and historical information because they have existed longer.
In contrast, red colors signify more active or riskier moves, reflecting life's hotter passions, including gaming, learning, and growing.
Yellow shaded areas denote more calculated and educated moves where I aim for higher rewards with more secure and stable positions.
Orange represents a collection highway, channeling earnings from the yellow and red zones towards projects that involve real-world assets, fractional real estate, and more.
Opposite the orange is a lighter green, symbolizing the collection of profits that I plan to allocate to my bull run bag.
Looking at the chart, the more historical data liquidity pools are at the top with about $100 each. For the moment I believe they have a good amount of income to observe and compare.
The center group is the new and active pools that are currently growing and being analyzed to observe which producing better results. A goal is to allocate more yellows in this and the bottom part of the chart, followed by orange movements. More reds are also anticipated to be charted as more connections are made. (plan on bringing an audience)
The bottom of the chart represent the places I plan to move profits when they are taken. Currently there is not much in there but I know the process and made the connections, so that I am prepared to collect profits.
As you can see, I currently involved in about 7 different blockchains. I am working towards being informed on the latest still looking for the best assets to allocate more time and energy towards.
I am still researching the best platform and blockchain that offers the most solutions for me, my businesses and my family and friends who will be joining me on this venture. I believe even after honing on the one that will service us best, I would like to still be diversified with the selections I have already made. It is just the new flow of income that I would plan on directing towards the final selection.
Just to reiterate without going into too much detail the needs for my art business to accomplish my goals is to have current customers continue paying in their preferred payment method while allow me to receive funds in any crypto or fiat payment I desire. The technology is almost available for small business owners and average individual but not quite yet. So I am keeping a close eye on that side of the industry; as a small to mid cap art business looking to grow in the crypto space.
Most of my clients are using CashApp for the most part, and other types of payments make up the rest of that pie. As we speak, I have been narrowed down to one bank institution, and just about cut off from fiat currency besides that one bank I still use. So the thought process of receiving payments and trying to purchase crypto. If I was to take money out from the ATM, there would be fees for that. My bank and CashApp are not linked and it is better left that way.
Through MetaMask I have been able to purchase MATIC on the Polygon network after learning the fee structures from highest to lowest at the current time of my research last year October 2023. Therefore Quickswap and the Polygon Network have provided best routes for me to learn and play around with the systems. This is why there is such a bigger allocation on the Polygon Network.
Polygon has provided was to get paid from writing and putting NFT art on a writing platform. However, from my research there was not an available platform to create NFTs in without paying high fees on the Ethereum Mainnet. Most of my historical learning by doing NFTs that I have are on a platform called Mintable and take ETH on the mainnet. There are many features on Mintable that I found useful but it is a challenge to test features, bring a team to help in the testing process, then implement ideas to clients when fees are so high.
I was introduced by what I call a credible source to the Cosmos Ecosystem with a Keplr wallet. This began my journey into Stargaze platform, being it is the recognized NFT platform on the Keplr wallet. My daughter is currently testing the Stargaze system from the creators' perspective while I act on it from the client's perspective making purchases of NFTs we plan to use on future advertisement. So I guess what I am saying is that we are creating NFTs now that will be used for marketing techniques in the future, along with testing features, purchases, trades, auctions and the effects it has on the overall collections and overall account that my daughter created.
With all that testing, you figure it would be wise to invest on the financial side of these things. Staking just to see, but it takes about 14 days from the moment you way you want your money back to get it. Colin introduced liquid staking but I need to do more research on the way that moves and flows, pros and cons and all that good stuff. Just purchasing stSTARS in penny amounts didn't show why it would benefit to do so.
OSMOSIS blockchain offered the opportunity to join a liquidity pool with OSMO and STARS. Apparently I had been learning concentrated liquidity pools before I knew that's what they are. This would conclude where I was at the very moment that I watched a video with Lucas. I have been listening and doing my own research on some of the projects he was involved with.
_________________________________________________________________________
The reason I am not crediting UIG for reaching $3 a day is because I feel I have not yet applied the information they are providing. Meaning, once I truly understand what is truly involved in the course for earning $3 a day, then I will make a move with my new skills and better research. I think applying those lessons fully in this challenge instead of trying to jump ahead will help me jump to $10 a day very quickly, which is the goal for the next challenge.
So the blues and reds represent the moves I made up until the time I started educating myself through the UIG. The yellow is the moves I am projecting to make with the knowledge I have downloaded while taking the course. And the colors in between represent the mergers. Light green and orange representing the tracks planned for taking profits.
Yellow definitely represent both more informed calculated moves and the strategies I am building with the education and support I am receiving from the UIG. Not financial support, but definitely information that is invaluable and has been given much attention to by the instructors and the whole team, I am sure.
As I mentioned in the beginning, I plan on having much more yellow moving forward. Currently I have just touched the surface and I have not picked my entire moves that would be placed in the boxes. I am still learning, researching and deciding. Meanwhile, I celebrate making a projected $3 a day strategy already.
Instead of claiming it just yet, I have decided to instead go back to making your first dollar in defi. There are fundamentals that I have skipped with just trial and error up to this point. One for sure is the Centralized Exchanges lesson for example. Many lessons are worth a quick view and review when needed to, and it is all available in the platform.
I had not given much thought to the onboarding and offboarding process. Honestly, I planned to be the last one in my team to be offramping. Also, I keep thinking that on and offboarding, buying crypto keeps a major connection from being made for me and my portfolio.
Currently my clients purchase airbrush art services on physical items. There is no intent to resale or treat the art as any other art with value. I accept payments in fiat, which makes depreciation and fess an issue when I desire my payments for my art in cryptocurrencies. So that alone creates a total disconnect and loss for me by taking money earned and paid in fiat when I choose an asset to begin with.
I have seen it announced and it is almost here, the ways to take payments in any method and get paid in any crypto or fiat you desire. So I am waiting for the right moment or searching for the right one if it already exists.
To tie this all together, when I have the ability to tie a digital NFT copy of the physical artwork that is paid for by the currency the client prefers into the crypto investment I prefer, I will have the final piece to connect my entire system. From there, clients can purchase my airbrush art services for a physical item tied to a digital contract known as a phygital NFT. Now my clients have value with their purchase, and with QR Codes, tags and/or receipts with instructions on how to claim your NFT and bring new members to the crypto space who will need education on defi and their purchase of their NFT art. Now they can be proud of their investment and watch it's value on the internet. I would guestimate that 80 to 90 percent of my clients are not in crypto and I have at least one to 3 customers per week already purchasing art.
I also know somewhat my demographics and can tell you the age group ranges from 50s to teenagers. I keep saying if the parents don't know what to do with their NFTs, their kids surely will. To the original buyer, nothing is lost by having your purchase included as a digital NFT and you still get what you asked to have done. The NFT can serve as a proof of purchase, if anything.
For me, it will show a transparent track record of the sales that I make and how much I charged for what artwork. Then if that art gets resold, there will be a history and the value of it all will be searchable for my next potential client. This validates why I charge what I charge and how many before have already paid. So if it is too much for one person, they will see that there is a demand for that price for the art services I provide. It's like Ethereum, if you can't afford it, go buy a papi or a doggie coin. But if you want the real deal, you pay for the one you want.
This sums up my personal and business goal in search for the right platform and blockchain. This is a zoomed out picture of one of my ongoing projects. The following step would be to teach my discoveries to others, artists in particular. I assume I would focus on helping my fellow artist once I have enough evidence to show a proven method by becoming a success story myself. I bring the topic up but am not being heard just yet. Meanwhile I am still trying to learn this system myself.
The other factor for my intensive work on this crypto world and defi technology is for generational wealth and positioning in the business area in the new age of technology and finances. My daughter at age 19 is learning what she can when she has the opportunity and knows more than many others out there. She is excited to teach it to her boyfriend and her social network. I keep bringing up the implementation of accepting crypto for multiple businesses, so she can be as close to the front of the line as possible.
The next part will focus on my direction towards helping others and generational wealth. If it is not in your interests, thank you for reading this far and hope to bring you an update to inspire interest in the future. If you are interested, there will be a higher fee than usual to access that post. I am trying to make these posts as low cost as possible, but I am also creating value for myself as a writer. The more valuable the information I believe I give, the higher the cost. But I appreciate even those who just check in for a quick read.
