After yet another year of unforgivable controversies,
becoming a reddit mod, buying a content house,
getting braces, it's clear that we need another major change here.
In spite of being so obviously problematic,
I owe it to what little remains of our original world-class team to try to grow this company
and create new opportunities for them.
That's why when financial optimization and market operations foundry
approached us about an acquisition with a deal that was sweet as honey,
not to mention some great new ideas for helping to maintain our financial solvency,
I just couldn't sign the deal fast enough. In the short couple of months since they took over,
we have synergized our efficiencies with the power of AI.
We've streamlined our payroll optimizations and today, I'm actually really excited to tell you guys,
we're announcing Linus Coin, a Web 6.9 initial coin offering
that I've been told legally I cannot say
is guaranteed to double your initial investment or more.
All you have to do is buy your token today,
wait some period of time and then redeem it for double what you paid or more on LTTstore.com.
So let's talk about that and everything else that I'm excited to share about this next chapter
of Linus Media Group, including this exciting segue to our sponsor.
While skyrocketing prices for RAM, SSDs,
hard drives, not to mention basic necessities have put a lot of pressure on our writing department,
FOMO Foundry showed me that with the power of AI,
I don't have to see them struggle anymore. That's right, the departures you guys saw recently,
those were just the appetizer and I'm proud to announce
that our writing department is the first one that was successfully completely replaced by ChatGPT.
I mean, sorry, I shouldn't say completely replaced
by ChatGPT because YouTube themselves
also contributed to our streamlined new workforce
through their inspiration tab. Now, I won't lie, I was a little bit apprehensive
when we started going in this direction, but when you consider how our views have only gone up
since we started this transition, I don't see a downside.
I mean, check this out.
And print it, ready for the teleprompter.
On the subject of printing, why use graphic designers who need chairs
and food and drink and money when you can just do everything yourself?
Watch this, cute computer giving thumbs up T-shirt design.
I just typed that into our proprietary LTT LLM and
clicks and, no, it's funny.
For some reason, this LLM is really expensive.
It kind of slowed, but it does a great job. So we're just gonna keep using it.
You can get this shirt today, by the way, for a limited time at LTTstore.com.
Now, this is a perfect time for us to address the elephants in the room.
If you saw our how LTT makes and spends money videos,
you'll know that we pivoted from being a media company to a product company ages ago.
And during a recent executive meeting, FOMO Foundry outlined their strategy
to double down on that. Hey guys, where's Taren?
He is on, let's say, vacation.
Oh, that makes sense. I mean, you guys have been doing such a great job
without him. This new scheme of yours, brilliant.
It's gonna fund the company for the next six, seven years,
easy. It's the LTT challenge coin.
And before you think, this ICO is gonna be
yet another run pull, it's not.
This is the real deal. And FOMO Foundry has been a huge help
getting this coin made. Great job, guys.
Remember when I got the shaft on our original screwdriver production run?
They made 100,000 defective shafts
that we ended up repurposing to make the scribe driver pen.
Well, what I didn't tell you is I got railed twice.
That same up supplier also made
100,000 faulty zinc ratchet housings.
As for our engineering team, they had over three years
to figure out what to do with these. FOMO did it in a day.
That's why they're gone too. Melt them down into a coin.
Yes, melt them all down. And melt them down we did.
The zinc housings, of course. We worked with an incredible coin minting partner
down in the 11th province and crafted 10,000
of these standard coins that are redeemable at two to one,
along with 100 rare coins that can be redeemed four to one
and 10 ultra rare coins that can be redeemed
at a 10 to one rate on LTTstore.com.
I actually tried asking for one of the ultra rares for myself, but they said that, and this is a quote,
my meatbag performance was a little underwhelming.
But hey, at least you guys will get a chance at one.
One for customer. Enough about this though. Let's shoot that video that I wrote earlier.
Actually, kind of think of it. There is one thing I'm finding a little bit confusing
about this. The AI executives say that this will fund the company
for years, but if we're selling it for half
of what it's worth, I won't be be losing money.
I don't really. Don't worry about that. Why is it said to get done? No, but the math is simple.
Less than, and then selling for, no, that doesn't make any sense.
That's right. You'll be getting a cool collectible and doubling your money in credit on LTTstore.
Now I legally can't call this an investment. So why don't I show you guys this cool video
about the origin of challenge coins? While many stories have appeared over the years,
the most common is that the challenge coins were used to identify oneself
in the absence of military ID.
A World War I soldier had escaped German captivity
and managed to make it back to a French outpost. According to the story,
the French were gonna kill the soldier until he showed the squadron medallion around his neck,
which was enough proof to look into his claims.
Which would have helped Elijah in this case,
but he doesn't have a Linus coin on him. And in a world where companies are using AI
to impersonate people, you can never be too sure who's real and who's not.
Take them out. Now you may be asking,
how the heck are you gonna make any money off this Linus?
Don't ask that. Instead, look at this helpful diagram
the FOMO executive team gave me to help explain it.
As you can see, FOMO invests in Linus Media Group.
Now they own us. We make products for them like the challenge coin.
We then sell that challenge coin at a loss to get people hooked on FOMO Foundry.
FOMO Foundry takes that money and reinvests in us here.
Literally everyone makes money this way. Nobody gets stuck holding a bag.
So get yours today because I really did lose a ton of money
buying those zinc housings and I just plain can't keep myself out
of mild boring controversies. So I really need this cash injection
if I'm gonna make the gamer jet a reality, which I did by the way.
Cute, isn't she? Can't do the tour today because, well, you know how it is.
So the full video is coming tomorrow, but only if we get enough people to visit FOMOFoundry.ai,
our new parent company's website. So go check that out and I will see you guys there.
But not before I tell you about our sponsor. If you guys enjoyed this video,
how about you go and watch, how does LMG spend money?
We talk a little bit about the financial struggles that brought us to this point,
as well as, well, there's a teaser for this thing in there
if you were paying really close attention.
