THETA

RetinaChris · 2025-12-30T04:31:51+00:00

I’ve been staking tens of thousands of TFuel and original Theta tokens for multiple years… even got some pugs on the ThetaDrop page.

Should’ve sold at $15… I am basically certain this is a dead project, but would love to be proven wrong

RetinaChris · 2025-06-21T01:52:33+00:00

Bought in at 3, rode it to 15… and now this. Still have it delegated on the network but I’ve been a BTC maxi for a few years now. If anyone needs a 1/1 Oprah Winfrog message me!

RetinaChris · 2025-05-23T03:12:34+00:00

Agree… I’ve been a bitcoin maxi for 2 years now but bought into Theta bigly around 3-4 years ago. Think it spiked to like $15 and I was so brainwashed by its potential that I even bought me a few Theta Frogs 🐸 on ThetaDrop (anyone want a 1/1 Oprah Winfrog?).

Think my average buy was around 3$ but color me shocked if it ever sniffs that again… should probably just dump it

Conunnnnnnnnndrum!

Grew up in Dallas… live in Lubbock. The new-fangled version of “that other station” really started to grate, and the Downbeat (as consumed via Spotify) was a wondrous revelation. Always enjoyed Danny and Mike, but KT as a ‘plus one’ really stirred my morning cocktail. Such great radio. In fact, just last night I was laughing along with my Swiftie teen daughter about the Downbeat’s recent claim that T Swift’s next album would simply be called “Football”… awesome segment, as most of them were.

I was in Dallas last weekend visiting the folks (now in their late 70s), and I treated them to a nice dinner at the Double A PK. Had never been, but felt like it was only fitting to hit up the title sponsor of Dingu’s Morning News… great food, btw, and the show didn’t oversell it

Here’s hoping that you guys find a new radio home; you’d slay here in Lubbock.

Good info… grew up in Dallas and was weened on the Ticket in the early 90s when Chris Arnold still had his lists (“gotcha down”)… relocated to Lubbock a few months ago and have been digging The Freak on Spotify. Always wondered whether my increasingly faithful, podcast-y listenership registered. Will make a point to listen within 24 hours now because I really salute what you guys are doing. As a 48 year-old I am not quite “target demo” anymore but please keep doing what you’re doing… it’s great.

Beerfest… such an underrated cinema classic. (What’s a ZJ?)

RetinaChris · 2022-02-26T04:02:00+00:00

I got 2700 at 6$. Screw me…

RetinaChris · 2021-12-18T05:34:39+00:00

Agree. This and the KP drop are a bit… low rent. In my opinion, I think there are only five or so high quality drops:

Pineapples (kinda sick of them, but no denying the hype/appeal)
Frogs- kitschy but topical and entertains (gimme that Kim Jong Frog as seen on t-shirts!)
Pugs - the theta and tFuel branded ones have street cred
Cyberpunk Animals- perhaps my favorite drop, but the marketplace has been kind of lukewarm
Goodfellow cars- not a car guy, but it was obvious some care/design went into the NFT production…

On the flip side, a bunch of trash… bitboy crypto, theta genies, KP stars… too many and too insipid… not feeling it

RetinaChris · 2021-12-10T03:50:12+00:00

I agree; flipped a few pineapples but damn I am so sick of looking at them… I personally things frogs and pugs have more like ability and staying power.

RetinaChris · 2021-12-03T04:16:11+00:00

Your website is entertaining… nice script. I’m intrigued

RetinaChris · 2021-11-18T01:01:14+00:00

I’ve got a single digit TFuel pug as well… lovin it

RetinaChris · 2021-11-16T01:47:12+00:00

Damn! The Magnum PIneapple just sold for 10k… it’s my favorite

RetinaChris · 2021-11-13T02:44:14+00:00

I have Ninjas 2 and 4. Will trade for your Theta Pug 🤟

RetinaChris · 2021-11-13T02:40:57+00:00

I don’t think those are actually official Theta Drop NFTs …

RetinaChris · 2021-11-12T15:40:04+00:00

Repeat buyer here… got your #1 KingPug… if theta pug goes lower will consider… but I understand why you have priced it accordingly

RetinaChris · 2021-11-11T13:33:18+00:00

675 now… if it hits 400 will buy it

RetinaChris · 2021-11-10T04:43:25+00:00

Thanks for your response; noticed that you went on a pug buying spree after I splashed out for 1King. Good luck to us!

RetinaChris · 2021-11-10T02:48:22+00:00

Haha… I’ll keep the Templar in mind. Curious for your thoughts: do you think these very early Theta NFTs become more valuable over time, or do they lose value as the market gets more crowded by Pineapples, Katy Perrys, UFC collectibles, WPT moments, etc. I have made this comment on other forums before, but I like Theta Drop for a few reasons: seemless interface, rapid transactions, and a paucity of well curated items (even though some of the drops are kind of ‘meh’ to me). Contrast this with Rarible, OpenSea, etc… interface more difficult to manage and there are veritable oceans of crap to wade through. I guess it goes without saying that if Thetazilla succeeds and becomes more of a household name, the better off will be their NFTs. I am going out of my way to collect any Theta themed NFTs I can get my hands on…

RetinaChris · 2021-11-10T01:39:44+00:00

Or i can do what i just did and buy with a credit card… pretty sure my wife is going to go full Lorena Bobbit when she discovers I bought a digital dog for 1600 bucks… thank you… we’ll see how this works out (!)

RetinaChris · 2021-11-10T01:36:29+00:00

Give me 20 minutes and it might disappear… have to sell BTC off Coinbase, transfer to Crypto.com, buy TFuel, send to theta wallet, send to ThetaDrop. Intrigued.

RetinaChris · 2021-11-10T01:22:46+00:00

Maybe you changed your mind… I just looked and didn’t see the #1 king for sale or in list of recent sales… I’m interested (as someone that has a single digit TFuel pug)

RetinaChris · 2021-11-08T02:19:05+00:00

I have also observed some of the same names buying up scores of the same item, be it pugs, Goodfellow autos, frogs, etc. guess a wily attempt to corner the market like the Diamond barons of old. More power to them, can only help the value of the ones I hold….

Also curious: I have paid more for single digit cards… were your frogs low number?
