Good Vibes Club. I’ve never fully explained why I went so deep into the @goodvibesclub project, so I’ll try to highlight a few things. It started with the mint, which I was fortunate enough to get whitelisted for thanks to a legend in my book, @micahfattahi. The mint was executed to perfection. I remember that day like it was yesterday. The music, the energy, the excitement—everything felt different. Discord was absolutely going wild. When reveal day came, I ended up minting a rare hoodie trait that I later sold for 3 ETH while I was in Hawaii for a wedding. The same day it sold, @RonnyGuy reached out to me and essentially said, “This project is going somewhere,” and suggested I reinvest into more GVCs. (Ngl I loved the conviction) The next day, I found myself sitting alone on a beach in Hawaii on the one day off we had from the wedding festivities. No wife. No kids. Just me and my thoughts. Feet in the sand. Sun on my face. Waves crashing in the background. The vibes were high. It felt like the physical embodiment of everything GVC stood for. So I swept a bunch of GVCs to remember that moment. That sweep became the beginning of something special. From that point on, I started buying Vibes around meaningful moments in my life. Snorkeling with my daughter in Hawaii? Vibe added. Spending time in the mountains with my youngest son after a tough week? Vibe added. Attending the World Series with my brother and best friend? Vibe added. Many of my Vibes have stories attached to them because that’s how I’ve chosen to collect in this space. As I went deeper into the project, I realized something: These guys understand business. They understand branding. They understand quality. They understand community. They reinvest into their holders. They listen to feedback. They are constantly building thing to activate their holders. And perhaps most importantly, they buy alongside the community the same way any holder would. That matters. Most new mints get absolutely decimated over time. To think GVC is still operating at nearly 10x its mint price years later is pretty remarkable. For me, though, it’s never been primarily about the monetary value. It’s about the value they’ve created inside the ecosystem. The reason people continue to hold is because they want to be here. That’s conviction. The most valuable thing GVC has given me is relationships. I’ve attended NFT NYC, Art Basel, and other events because of this community. I’ve met holders all over the world, and some have even come out to my neck of the woods. I started doing a spaces with my now closest friends and partners in the space @atarigod and @metabloxx. It’s wild to think I wouldn’t know many of these incredible people if it weren’t for Good Vibes Club. GVC has attracted some truly elite collectors and people because foundationally it possesses many of the qualities you’d want in a long-term project. I’m a lifer here. I could say a lot more about my experience, but I’ll leave it at this: Very few projects launched during that era have accomplished what GVC has. I’m grateful to be a part of it, and if you’re looking for a community built on good people, shared experiences, and long-term relationships, I highly recommend checking it out. Much love to the entire GVC family. 🤙
