Re:Envisioning Web3 | The Coup D'etat ๐ฎ
Host: Jed (@jed_131) with co-host Lyss (@Lysss302) ยท Tue, 25 Aug 2026 ยท 58:35 ยท ~11 speakers
TL;DR
- Jed staged a friendly "coup d'etat," taking over Lyss's daily Re:Envisioning Web3 space โ which mostly meant she came back with even more energy than usual.
- The Regen Book Club launches September 1st, kicking off with Cortez's book (Lyss notes the audiobook is free on Audible so cost is no excuse).
- Big push on the Re-spaces host network: Geist (@Geist254) agreed to come aboard as a recurring host, and Niko half-volunteered to co-host the book club.
- An NFT NYC meetup is set for Wednesday evening (~5โ6pm) at Jed's steakhouse โ appetizers and drinks for the Web3 crowd; several speakers confirmed they'll be there IRL.
- Recurring theme: the real ROI of spaces is relationships and retention, not room size โ reset, refocus, realign.
- Jed flagged a low-key TCG alpha play ("Tata K") with 100 spots reserved for regens.
Highlights
- [7:20] Lyss opens with her Julius Caesar obsession (three copies, read it 20+ times), gamely playing the overthrown Senator to Jed's coup: "Considering I've been overthrown, I'm gonna keep a close eye on Jed and stay far away from the Senate."
- [12:55] RobbAllen shares genuinely good news โ voucher meeting Thursday, inspection, and a move into his new place Tuesday: "So let's fucking go." Jed, dealing with something similar himself, was clearly moved.
- [16:41] Niko reflects on how the spaces have reframed his mindset โ "I no longer feel like I have to. I feel like I get to do things" โ which Jed reveals was nearly the space's original title.
- [19:28] Jed's deadpan on the book club: "Should we call it regen book club, all the liars. Because people can't even read two sentences on this app. Now everybody reads books. I don't believe it."
- [20:36] City of STONKS (CCM) explains his break honestly โ "it all went to zero," so he took a job in luxury resale (selling Gucci bags 50 hrs/week) and now grinds Web3 till 3am. Jed backs the have-an-income-first approach.
- [25:26] Geist recounts the golden era of ApeChain builder spaces โ daily four-hour rooms, and a legendary 21-hour marathon run straight to the TysonโJake Paul fight: "I slept on spaces, man."
- [36:02] Jed credits those trenches for his best finds โ Simple Farmer, Uncle Mac, Crypto Bullies โ arguing the ROI on showing up daily shows up a year later.
- [45:26] Lyss delivers the space's centerpiece monologue on conviction over vanity metrics: don't let the numbers dictate your effort, and "my mind can overpower any weakness that my body tries to show me."
- [49:09] After that speech, Jed gives up on pretending she's under the weather: "I thought you weren't feeling good. What the fuck? Are you a cyborg? Are you Gary V's lost daughter?" โ and neither Super nor Sho would help him rein her in.
- [52:19] CCM confirms he's all in on the NYC meetup: "My ticket is booked. We're going Honolulu to NYC, baby" โ with Jed teasing that McFly will be at the steakhouse door in a suit checking IDs.

Who said what
- Jed (@jed_131) โ host; ran the "coup," steered the NFT convo and NYC meetup logistics, and gave Geist a heartfelt closing tribute.
- Lyss (@Lysss302) โ co-host; the motivational engine of the room, Julius Caesar devotee, and driving force behind the Book Club and Re-spaces host network.
- Geist (@Geist254) โ veteran space host (*; shared hard-won lessons on running rooms with intention and agreed to rejoin as a recurring host.
- Super (@SHGFees) โ regular; talked up how spaces accelerate real relationships and retention (e.g., getting to know holder Marco Matic).
- Sho (@AgogoKaren) โ regular; NYC-outfit-ready and firmly on Team Lyss when Jed asked for backup.
- Niko (@6XISIV) โ spoke on the "get to" mindset and interest in the book club/co-hosting.
- City of STONKS / CCM (@CityOfStonks) โ returning after a break; building something with regen "keys," confirmed for the NYC steakhouse meetup.

Worth a full listen
- [44:00]โ[48:19] โ Lyss's full conviction monologue on effort vs. numbers and letting your mind show up when your body won't. The paraphrase can't carry the momentum.
- [24:08]โ[29:39] โ Geist on the craft and cost of daily hosting, the 21-hour Tyson-fight marathon, and his emotional decision to stay "because I can't leave family behind."
- [49:09]โ[52:35] โ The lightest stretch of the room: Jed conceding defeat to Lyss's energy, the "goated motivational speaker" bit, and CCM's Honolulu-to-NYC victory lap.
