In this episode, I was joined by Mike, aka Sckicker2022, one of the co-founders of the Hyde Park Ninjas, who are heavily involved in a variety of WEB3 ventures in and around the Upland Metaverse. As his name suggests, SC has been playing Upland since January 2022, and today we focused on discussing his journey into Upland and the aspects that keep him interested and engaged with the platform. Since this is the first in what we hope will be a 3-part series featuring the Hyde Park Ninjas, we adjusted the format slightly to save some relevant discussions for future episodes. Alongside sharing personal history and interests—where we found many similarities—we also raced through SC’s insights and opinions on various contemporary Upland and WEB3-related topics, which I hope you’ll enjoy. As you’ll discover, if you’re not already familiar, the Hyde Park Ninjas are adept at rolling with the punches and capitalizing on some of the many exciting opportunities that the Upland Metaverse continually presents. And with his innovative and positive mindset, Sckicker2022 is far from tapping out in "The Metaverse and Beyond!" ---------------------------- 🌏 GUEST: SCKICKER2022 🌏 📱 Discord: 1000121315493163100 🛜 Account Profile: https://upxland.me/users/sckicker2022 ✖️ X: https://x.com/Sckicker2022 🌏 Hyde Park Ninjas 🌏 📱Website: https://hydeparkninjas.com/ 📱Discord: https://discord.gg/Tesd55pEJ8 📱YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@hydeparkninjas5974/ 📱Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HydeParkNinjas/ 📱Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hyde_park_ninjas/ ✖️ X: https://x.com/Hydeparkninjas ----------------------------- 🌏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://dailycoin.com/xyo-and-upland-merge-real-and-virtual-worlds-in-web3/ https://www.crypto-news.net/xyo-and-upland-partner-to-transform-web3-gaming-and-data-sovereignty/ https://xyo.network/ https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/xyo/#Markets https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/upland-sparklet/ https://upland.me/events/announcing-the-haunted-halloween-plaza-challenge https://upland.me/events/race-8-stock-car-pro-bundle-is-here https://upland.me/events/nowhere-passes-have-arrived-unlock-new-creative-possibilities-in-upland https://upland.me/events/announcing-the-hidden-gems-bundle-sale https://uplandme.medium.com/get-ready-for-the-neighborhood-collection-upgrade-challenge-8103dfee5398 https://upland.me/events/road-to-the-big-game-new-orleans-season-long-challenges https://upland.me/events/sparklet-showdown-earn-your-chance-to-win-a-sparrow https://uplandme.medium.com/treasure-hunting-is-returning-to-web-cd4b8b429df2 https://uplandme.medium.com/welcome-to-frederick-uplands-new-starter-city-583e30ef0d66 https://uplandme.medium.com/harvest-season-pass-the-pixel-builders-edition-1125844b695b https://discordapp.com/channels/599294224285827072/599298771637239828/1285952007378829344 ---------------------------- 👹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
