$KERMAN Update #1: Meet & Greet Recap, Monthly Token Burn, Uniswap Listing
On the 2nd June, 2020, $KERMAN holders organised their first meet and greet!
The meet and greet was a way to get to know my personal token holders and form a deeper connection rather than names in Telegram. I personally wasn’t too sure what to expect, luckily the conversation found it’s own path.
Everyone on the call was essentially one or a combination of:
- Venture backed founders who have/are running companies in the crypto and technology space
- Investors/venture capitalists in the space
- Operators within the crypto space
Not the usual crowd you’d expect for a community of people!
At a high level the call covered the following topics:
- Getting to know everyone and the birth of the $KERMAN community
- Why they got involved with this experiment
- What they’d like to see more/less of from $KERMAN
- Advice around where I should take my career
Getting more granular, I managed to ask the following questions:
- As a $KERMAN holder, what’s a good frequency of information/engagement?
- Is binding-voting on life decisions important or is their voice being part of the decision more important?
- Do I pursue a career in venture, starting another company, freelancing etc etc?
- Is this synthetic-asset protocol idea worth pursuing or not?
To summarise, the best way $KERMAN holders viewed themselves was most similar to being a “personal board of directors”.
Whenever I have any doubts, questions or queries I can schedule a call and use them as a high quality sounding board to get advice on quite literally anything. I hope that I can continue to use my personal board of directors to guide the decisions in my life — #SoFi.
Part of launching $KERMAN, I made public that I’d be burning 5% of the revenue from my newsletter DeFi Weekly and any tokens directly redeemed for my time.
- 2 x 5 hour consulting blocks were redeemed totalling 50,000 $KERMAN (0.5% of the supply). The burn transaction is available here:

This roughly equated to 0.1 ETH, which I then used the resulting 1,015 $KERMAN to burn. Both tx hashes available here: https://etherscan.io/tx/0xdc9fe8f8aa3b025a29c74d17d09ce2bedc8072b0869cc6caa70a6397bd060feb https://etherscan.io/tx/0xdc9fe8f8aa3b025a29c74d17d09ce2bedc8072b0869cc6caa70a6397bd060feb
All up, this month 51,015 $KERMAN were burned.
In addition to the above, $KERMAN is listed on Uniswap, Coingecko, Pools.FYI and DeFi Marketcap (soon). The $KERMAN pool on Uniswap also has about $1,000 worth of liquidity.

Once again, thank you to everyone who has been a part of this experiment — I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience and having a chance to connect with so many unique people from all over.
Upwards!
