👋 Welcome to the 590 Cre8ors who are reading this newsletter.

🧠 This weeks big idea is…

Give yourself permission to fail. Don’t bother telling the world you’re ready, show it! 

⏱ Time to read: 3 minutes

The Cre8ors founding members are coming together to show the web3 world we’re ready!

I always had this need to belong to a collective of humans that share the same values, passion, and understanding. I think that’s why sports was and is a big part of my life. I just cannot see myself living in a world where I’m not part of a collective of hearts beating together for the same goal.

For the past 9 months, I’ve been working together with a fantastic team to build the Cre8ors collective. It’s my biggest achievement thus far. At no point in my life have I felt like I can touch so many lives and have so much support from so many wonderful humans. So you can be sure I’m ready. I’m fucking ready to show the web3 world who we are, why we’re here, and where we’re headed. So let’s get started!

There are 88 Cre8ors founding members’ passes. These are the most valuable assets within the Cre8ors ecosystem. The only way one can get a founding member’s pass is to accumulate 88 relics. Our leaderboard will go public this week so y’all can track the relics race. At this moment, the 88th place holds 9 relics while the 1st place holds a whopping 39 of them.

Now it’s time to give ourselves permission to fail.

Why? Because it’s the only way to really build something in web3. There’s no blueprint for success in this space. It changes so fast and what’s working now might not work tomorrow. The experts of today will be irrelevant tomorrow if they stop looking for ways to evolve.

Here’s the catch: we’re a team of 14 + 88 founding members. We need to work as a collective of founders and allow ourselves to fail behind the scenes so that any public-facing Cre8ors action is perfectly timed and thought through.

Starting today, there is an exclusive channel on our Discord for the first 88 Cre8ors on our leaderboard. They’re in pole position to become founding members. So let’s not bother telling the web3 world we’re ready. Let’s show them here!

📌 Major milestones

We finalized our new visual for the Cre8ors relic and we’ve shared the updated with our founding members. During the course of this week, we will change the name of the collection on Opensea and prepare to launch our public campaign at the end of the month.

The Cre8ors in pole position to become founding members (the first 88 relics collectors) have now received special roles and exclusive access on our Discord. All the communication will be centralized on the server for our founding members to access.

We watched Elon’s BBC interview together with 40 community members on Discord and we’ve had a blast. More activities are coming for our collective so stay tuned…
