In this episode, I was joined by Laban, who has been a highly active and engaged member and supporter of the Upland community since joining way back in November 2020. Laban has pretty much been involved in and seen it all as Upland has continued to grow and develop since then, from humble beginnings as an FSA agent in Fresno working with established players (including myself), to having some epic USD flips and striving towards, and succeeding in, getting his account into the green ‘playing with house money’ status, which is a goal for many players (myself included). Laban has gone on to be a huge supporter of many Upland broadcasters and various node projects, including Lone Mountain in San Francisco and his recent move to residential status in Midtown Terrace. He’s also a metaventure owner, operating the ‘Graveyard Goods’ map assets business, from which he produces and sells a range of terrifyingly affordable gravestones that are guaranteed to help bring your properties to life—or death—while not horrifying you financially. We discussed all of that today, including his thoughts and opinions on a number of contemporary and historical Upland events, and I hope you enjoy our chat. Although he isn’t a fan of his ancestral ties to my beloved black metal, Laban has well and truly shaken off the Celtic Frost and is becoming Immortal as he rises and shines… from the grave in 'The Metaverse and Beyond!'. ---------------------------- 🌏 GUEST: LABAN 🌏 📱 Discord: 87983891075321856 🛜 Account Profile: https://upxland.me/users/laban ✖️ X: https://x.com/Upland_Laban 📱 Graveyard Goods Metaventure 🌏 Oakland - https://play.upland.me/?prop_id=79553214666096 🌏 Los Angeles - https://play.upland.me/?prop_id=77226349227943 🌏 Queens - https://play.upland.me/?prop_id=81380909091093 🌏 Detroit - https://play.upland.me/?prop_id=82434887019631 📱 Lone Mountain Node Discord: https://discord.gg/SXzpf3QQnC ----------------------------- 🌏Metaverse Ventures Australia (MVA) Discord:🌏 https://discord.gg/Vvz3f96yC9 ----------------------------- ⚠️WARNING!⚠️ The information and opinions within are solely the views of the individuals involved, and contains content not suitable for anyone! ----------------------------- 🛜Links and articles discussed📰 https://uplandme.medium.com/uplands-first-community-designed-neighborhood-in-paris-4ab526fc768ehttps://medium.com/upland/rare-drops-celebrating-city-hall-cde202f041dehttps://www.htx.com/trade/sparklet_usdt?inviter_id=11345710&invite_code=zh5i6223https://lookerstudio.google.com/u/0/reporting/d9fa0699-3159-4f8d-b7c4-eb96d43b8ce4/page/WTNeChttps://apps.apple.com/au/app/atlas-earth/id1567636697https://apps.apple.com/au/app/house-rush/id6452193947https://apps.apple.com/us/app/upland-buy-and-sell-property/id1457175587https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/blockchain-gaming/gaming-interviews/shardtalk-interview-with-dirk-lueth-upland/ ---------------------------- 👹BEN68👹 🌐AtomicHub: https://wax.atomichub.io/profile/5lpay.wam ✖️ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ben68_udu 🦙Play Upland: If you use this link to download Upland, you will receive a 50% bonus on your first in-game currency purchase https://r.upland.me/T1Jk 📱Discord: BEN68 (Upland Down Under) ---------------------------- Check out all things MVE in the Podcast world: 🎙️Spotify: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/upland-down-under 🎙️Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1583860609 ----------------------------- INTRO / OUTRO - Backing Music by The Nasty Hooks: https://soundcloud.com/thenastyhooks - Intro voice work by Dubrider.
