All right, buddy.

Partner, let's go.

Big day.

Special pod.

And we got you in New York.

That's true.

That's true.

I know.

Big city, lots of sounds.

Used to my Montana lifestyle now. Yeah, very overwhelming day for Mike.

Country bumpkin. Exciting. Well, hopefully folks saw the announcement. Hopefully we were loud enough on social, but we have a big announcement, which is today we acquired Masari. So we wanted to spend some time talking about, I think, three things right now,

which is one, why Masari? There's a lot of great data platforms in crypto. Why is Masari such a

perfect fit for Blockworks? Number two, kind of what is, I think, maybe how are Mike and I seeing

like this moment in time right now in crypto? I think it's a pretty interesting time in crypto,

maybe institutional bull, crypto token bear. How do we see what's happening right now playing out? And then maybe the third is where does Blockworks come into this? Yeah, right? Blockworks, this is year nine for the business. We've evolved a lot. Yeah, I know. Nine years. I know. I got some grays going on up here. You do. I do. I do. It's not good.

Got to get the, what's the, you know, four men, the little comb with the anti-grey. We don't need to make this a grooming episode. All right, fine, fine, fine. All right. So let's get into, maybe let's start with why Missouri. So first of all, I think you and I just have a ton of respect for Missouri. Blockworks and Miswari kind of grew up.

I feel like opposite one another, and we were, we kind of like had two different parts of the infinity

gauntlet, which was Misari started from day one, focused on this mission of increasing transparency

for investors and promoting fundamental based decision making in crypto. Blockworks has had that mission as well.

Our mission is increasing trust in on-chain markets.

We started a little bit more from the side of media, distribution, access to investors,

and we've been moving into investor relations.
