I designed the #B20 tokenomics & strategy, of which I’m proud. The crowning achievement is that 5,200+ ppl own B20s & are part of a movement to democratize asset ownership.

Since I’m getting a lot of inbound Qs, the following will correct misinfo about B20s & my auction thoughts
.@ahcastor implying Beeple and Metakovan are in “cahoots” also means that the prestigious 254 yr old @ChristiesInc is in on the “scheme.”

Besides comical, what would be the motive? It’s not self-serving since Metakovan has never sold a single B20 token 😂
Metakovan has a 6-month vesting period. How do I know this? I instituted the lock-up!

Side nugget: Metapurse has never sold a single NFT! I find it strange to not lock in some profit with the recent appreciation of NFTs, but my cajoling fell flat.
@beeple is not a partner or investor in B20. It's true that he was gifted 2%.

Why? Great question that I also asked. It’s simple and obvious at this point, Metakovan is a Beeple fan.
Would I have given 2% away? Sorry Beeps, no. But my opinion doesn’t matter. Vignesh wanted to include everyone on the journey, & so he did.

1 fact no one is pointing out is that we made public that Beeple was getting 2%. That alone puts a dagger in the “cahoots” conspiracy.
One reason I participated in the B20 project was Metapurse's commitment to its longevity. @MetaKovan wanting to own the majority of the tokens is a POSITIVE

Buffet dumping all of his Berkshire = bad. Someone committed to a lock-up & having a provable history of holding = good
I remember the call we had with @beeple when we shared the B20 vision. The 12 people on the call including @AndrewSteinwold @niftytime @brookemelissa1 can all attest that his initial reaction was lukewarm at best.
These details are obvious to most but I want to put these wild rumors to rest & share actual details of this historic project.

I’m proud of the work we’ve done with B20 & excited about the next metaverse project @metapurse will dream up. I’m sure it will be 5K x grander ✨
