Now that was our short housekeeping part and it my great pleasure to introduce you to our panelists for today. They are from IO Builders and they are Jorge Antolines, the Chief Business Officer at IO Builders as well as Oscar Franco who is the Delivery Manager at IO Builders. And without further ado, Oscar and Jorge, over to you. Perfect. Thank you very much Thomas for the introduction and thank you to the Hyperledger Foundation for inviting us and for giving us the opportunity to talk about these new use case that we've been working on for the past, I would say close to two years now since we started developing the project which I believe it's very interesting and hopefully this will be an interesting conversation. So well, as Thomas said, my name is Jorge Antolines I'm the Chief Business Officer at IO Builders and the idea, I'm here with Oscar, Franco and my colleague and the idea is we're gonna give you a quick overview of IO Builders, right? Who we are and a little bit of our journey basically give you an overview of the type of projects and the types of solutions we are building always using blockchain and DLT technology and then we'll finish with an overview in more detail of this solution which is a syndicated loan tokenization platform that we are developing with top tier banks in Europe and yeah, we'll give you more detail on this solution and as Thomas mentioned, happy to answer questions and have an open conversation on this, right? Okay, then I will start. As I said, giving a quick overview of who we are at IO Builders. So IO Builders for those of you that don't know us is a company that was established in 2018. Oscar, I don't know if you are sharing the screen. I think you are not, no? Right now. Sorry, Thomas, I'm actually sharing the screen but... Also cannot see it. Can you maybe try to stop sharing and start sharing again? Ah, there we go. Looks good. Yeah, perfect, yeah. Okay, then as I said, very quick. So IO Builders is a company that was established in 2018 and since the beginning we have specialized in building solutions and infrastructures mainly for financial markets and always leveraging blockchain and DLT technology, as I said. So we basically specialize in tokenization. It can be of, well, digital securities, digital credit and digital money, digital cash. And we basically work with large institutions, with corporates, FMIs, mainly, but we've also worked with other types of institutions such as multilateral institution. We'll give you a bit more information on this project in a second. And well, as you can see there, so since 2018 we have worked with over 30 clients, more than 50 projects. And we have a team of more than 80 employees, which, well, all of them in-house. And I would say that around 80% of those are technical staff, so developers. So we have a pretty large team. You can go to the next slide, Oscar. So yeah, very quick. Here, basically what we want to tell you that from the beginning the philosophy of IO Builders has been to focus on the more traditional and regulated side of the technology, basically to see how institutions, banks, businesses can basically adopt this technology to either improve their processes to become more efficient or to generate new business models or improve the liquidity in the existing ones, which is basically what we want to do with this syndicated launch organization platform that we're gonna discuss during this presentation. And all of it while maintaining always a regulatory and compliant focus, right? So you see here, the idea is to help our clients every step of the way to ensure that they basically integrate solutions that are regulated and that are compliant and they integrate those in their business models, right? So for that, we work with some of our partners, which are, well, top tier law firms in Spain. We help our clients and we are applying to, for example, in this case, to a license of European level to operate a financial market with a regulated secondary market as well. So yeah, the idea is that the business and regulatory compliance is key for us. You can go to the next slide, Oscar, please. Yeah, well, this break with the idea that we have three business verticals, the first one you see here is consulting, right? The truth is that because of the nature of this business and this industry, we have spent a lot of time on technical consulting and we do that, well, mainly because our clients sometimes are not ready and they needed some time, basically understanding how to implement the technology, how it's gonna impact their business models, how it's going to improve efficiency. As I said, what are the risks of using this technology and how to mitigate them, right? So this has been a key vertical for us and we have gone through a period of adaptation, as I said, right? But the second one, which we call digital asset is the key vertical. As I said, we have 85% of our staff are developers and we are technology companies specializing in building these solutions for financial and other markets, right? And then the third one, which is a deep tech and innovation line, I won't stop, but we basically have a team that is specialized in very technical projects that require innovation and deep knowledge on how blockchain network functions, how protocol and smart contracts work, how they do research on interoperability, on token standards, et cetera, right? That's the third vertical. You can go to the next slide, Oscar, please. In the next slide, the idea is to... No, sorry, you can go to the next as well. To the next slide, yeah, here. Yeah, so here we just wanted to give you a quick overview of our use cases and some of our verticals, right? So as you see, the first two are basically related, mostly to the financial world. In those, I would say that the most advanced cases that we have are probably in the security sector, also in the digital trading, which is where we position the syndicated loan platform, but in terms of the security sector, well, we have worked with top tier clients, as you can see there, well, BME is the Spanish Stock Exchange. I've worked with Inter-American Development Bank, with all funds, which is one of the largest fund distribution platforms in Europe, et cetera, and well, top tier players in the financial industry. And basically what we do here is we build market infrastructures to digitize the entire process of issuance management and trading of financial instruments, right? It can be equities, bonds, or funds, et cetera, right? In this vertical, one of the most advanced projects is the creation of the first market infrastructure using JLT technology, which is going to be regulated by the Spanish and European regulators with an initial use case in real estate, right? And well, this is probably our most advanced project here in the world of digital securities, we also have bomb tokenization platforms that we have done in Niprolerger. In Niprolerger, we had another session when we went through that platforms and it's already recorded. And yeah, that's basically in the world of digital securities. Then the second vertical is in the world of digital credit. Here, basically, we're talking about the digitalization of credit products, right? That can be applied to syndicated loans, receivables, other types of credit products, right? That we can digitize and we can tokenize. Here, the first use case we launched is a platform for syndicated loan management using JLT technology, which is the one that Oscar is going to talk about. He's gonna tell you more detail and that we are launching with major Spanish banks. Then the third vertical is the digital cash one here and basically just want to tell you we have worked on different projects of tokenization of cash in various forms, right? So it can be electronic, so e-money tokenization, tokenization of commercial bank money or bank deposits. We are part of experiments regarding CBDCs and we also have our own solution for to create and manage stable coins so that companies and corporates can use them. And then the last two, well, we have the deep tech vertical. I went through it a little bit and then the last one, I won't stop much because it's not the topic of the session today, but that's the legal tech one where we are basically developing a legal digital product factory, I would say, with the goal of basically being able to market techno legal products in the world of contracts and digital trust. Basically, well, to have a qualified signature, to have a contract manager and everything being recorded in blockchain, right? So yeah, this is just to give you a quick overview of where we are working and the verticals of the company, right? You can go to the next slide, Oscar. Okay, then basically, yeah, go to the next one, please. Here, we just wanted to tell you a little bit how we, what our journey has been, right? And where we started and why we've been now ending in working in syndicated loan market and why we believe there's going to be a platform that is going to revolutionize this market, right? So basically from the beginning, I would say in 2018, 2019, since the company was founded, we started focusing on the bond market at the beginning, basically working on the development of a digital bond platform, which was built in this case for BME, which is the Spanish Stock Exchange and the CSD, the Spanish Central Securities Apository. And here, well, we have done different bond issuances using this platform and regulated issuances that they have been, right? Supervised by the Spanish regulator, et cetera. After that, we basically started developing the market infrastructure that I talked about before. It's a multilateral trading facility. It's a system that uses DLT technology, right? As I said, it's going to be regulated by Spanish and European regulators and it will have an initial use case in the real estate sector, right? This market infrastructure was called OpenBrick and it basically allows for real estate promoters or real estate asset owners for the foundations, management and trading of digital securities, equities and bonds basically. And it has a regulated secondary market in place, right? To provide and liquidity. Then the furthest case we started working at as well was the development of a DLT solution to basically enable for the issuance and management of digital CO2 credits, right? Providing a system for tracking and selling carbon emissions on DLT, right? This is a project we did with a top tier banking in Spain and a consulting firm here in Spain as well. Then from there, and I would say for the past three and a half years, we started working in the world of investment funds, right? So this case, use it funds, mutual funds to breathe away. And we have been working, as I said, for close to four years now with this case is the largest fund distribution platform in Europe, which is our main client in this sector. And this is a platform that is already in production and we're seeing top tier banks and investment firms integrating to this platform. What we did here is provide all the technological development and also the support for the integration. And then we, for Depazio, we have been focusing a lot on we say here private equity but it's basically private market, private markets as well, right? In this case, we're working now and we started working a few months ago on the development of a platform to digitize the end-to-end lifecycle of a private equity fund, right? So we believe that private markets are going to be highly impacted by tokenization and this is another project we were working on. And then the last which case, which is the one I want to focus on now, which is a syndicated loan platform, right? Why did we do this? Because we believe that all this knowledge that we had, right? Starting from the fixed income market going to the fund distribution market, having an MTF, all of this translates really well into a platform where basically banks can issue register and then can manage the lifecycle of a syndicated loan, basically. You can go to the next slide, Rosca, please. Yeah, so as I said, now we're gonna focus on the syndicated loan platform, right? So why did we, as I said, why did we start focusing on this use case? Well, we basically understood that the syndicated loan market has several problems to be solved. And we say here, the first one is, well, I mean, it's a market where all the origination and the execution takes a long time. There are different actors involved. And currently all the back office costs and we're very inefficient, right? And with systems that we're not communicating to each other, we believe that having a platform where everything could be centralized makes a lot of sense for this market, right? And so this is the first part. And then the second part, we believe it's also very interesting for banks to have certain liquidity, right? We understand that the syndicated loan is going to be as liquid as an equities market or a bond market, but banks also sometimes want certain liquidity and want to free some of their risk. They have in the balance sheet and sell their tickets to other banks, right? So all of these we believe that having a platform like this when you can represent the loans and you can tokenize them and you can automate some of the life cycles or from the commitment of the banks, the drawdowns, you can automate all the interest payments or the repayments of principles, on the covenants, the waivers or devoting everything can be done through this platform. And then it can provide this secondary market to give certain liquidity, right? Oscar is going to go through all of this in detail. So we believe that this makes a lot of sense and brings a lot of benefits to this market. In terms of the regulatory context as... Well, sorry, Oscar, go to the last one. Yeah, in terms of the regulatory context, at least in the European Union, we see a very favorable regulatory context basically because of the application of Mica, which is a regulation that I'm going to oversimplify this, but it's not the topic of this meeting. Basically, it regulates everything that is not a security token with certain exceptions, but it gives you a framework to regulate all of the pre-procurrencies and all the things that are not a security token. So it gives a regulatory context that is very favorable, especially for the clients of this platform, which are banks and big corporates, right? And yeah, so as I said, we believe this is going to bring a lot of value and impact. So that's basically why we started developing this solution. And now from here, Oscar, I think you can go into more detail and talk about this solution. Thanks, okay, let's see how we do this. As you said, our approach is based on digital ledger technologies, implementing consensus-based transparent and auditable processes. We implement functionalities for all the lifecycle of the financial products, including the registry and distribution of tokens and also the transfer of participations. Since there is not a single solution for all the kind of assets, we usually develop our best approaches layers. The first one is the product-specific features and rules for this kind of tokens. Let's see in the next slide in deep asset taxonomy. Over this, we usually implement the lifecycle functionalities, such in this case, repayments or interest and fees. And then we build the ownership management layer containing, for instance, the transfer conditions and restrictions. The asset taxonomy depends on the business case. So this is part of our wider framework of tokenizations, where we use a basic token standard and then we enrich it. According to the market common characteristics, but also to the regulation or product-specific features. Our tokenization approach is based on smart contracts. We develop a set of smart contracts according to the functions that we need to develop or we are developing too. And we distinguish different stages to highlight some of them. We have the asset deployment, the execution of the contract and the distribution of tokens, the lifecycle events or potential transfer of participations. Besides that, we have included a set of smart contracts for the creation of deals and facilities, that is the asset that we're tokenizing here. And then we have another set for managing the assets ownership. And finally, the smart contracts orchestrating all the product life cycle and maturity. At the moment, this indicates the tokenization platform has six main functions. First of all, as we have mentioned before, the registry and distribution function. Second, the drawdowns amortization. We have implemented both bullet and amortizing schedules. Covenants and the waiver processes, where, well, this permits the agent introduce financial information about the borrower and modify parameters such as margin, for instance, but also give the possibility for the borrower to request an exception of this Covenants. Then the option to, as we already said too, the option to transfer participations to a third party. Then a fifth model in charge of the corresponding interest and fees and other corporate actions driven of the life cycle event. And finally, the management of the contract extensions and also the terminations. Here we have another view of our general architecture. There's a layer managing the user interface for different roles connected through an API to our backend, which contains the registry and distribution of tokens, the life cycle functionalities, the model in charge of potential transmission of participations. There's also another asset models, as well as a set of models for interacting with the DLP, as, for instance, the customer service provider or the blockchain ingress listing event from the blockchain. We are calling this solution in Ethereum virtual machine compatible smart contracts using the Perleger-Vesu client. In fact, this is one of the motives that, why we are here. In Perleger-Vesu, it's an open source solution that fits perfectly for a private permission development as a side of this. And it allows us to develop gas-free solutions and having a high transaction capacity, and it's compatible with several consensus algorithms. It is a modular solution, and as a Ethereum client, it offers, for instance, an execution environment for processing transactions, an storage for transactions related data, tools for communicating with other nodes, and an API to interact with Ethereum blockchain. Regarding our network topology, we usually deploy it as a rinse. In the core, we do have the validator nodes. Around them, we deploy the boot nodes and in the peripheral, the access nodes. In this case, we are using proof of authority because of the topology of the network and the participants using Istanbul Byzantine photo-reland consensus mechanism. The siloed structure and its connection to a DLP has three main components. First of all, the participants, where we have developed three different kind of roles, agents, lenders, and borrowers. Second, the bills and facilities, those that we are representing as fungible tokens. At the moment, we have implemented third-law and revolving-grade facilities. And finally, the product-specific life-cycle events that are orchestrated by the smart contracts. Regarding the participants, the main responsibility for the HM Bank is the creation and deployment of the bills and the facilities. For lenders, it's actually participating in the loan as a lender and in fact, the lenders are the token holders for all the maturity period. And the borrower, we could say that is the main actor when executing the life-cycle events. The participants may have several representatives, even they can have different roles and specific permissions. But all of them, at the end of the day, when they're interacting with the DLT, well, they use the same participant key. As a custody approach, we could integrate to third-party custody services whether they are the participating banks or other technology providers. Regarding the tokens, we have been analyzing several standards that may fit in loan tokenization. Analyzing futures as fungibility or insurance control, transferring restrictions. At the end, we have decided to implement the 1400, mainly for this partial fungibility feature that allows us to have the balance status implemented as partitions. Actually, this standard is made up of other standards like 1410 for the token representation is the one that includes this partial fungibility feature. The 1644 can be used for offering control over operations, such as forcing transfers, for instance. The 1594, which can be used to implement transfer restrictions. And the 1643, that allows us the attachment of legal documents to a certain token, for instance, the deal or the documents of the facility. Finally, let's talk about the partitions. In fact, as I said, we're using the partitions to represent the status of the loan. Instead of partitions, we can consider them the tokens as RC20 tokens, particularly. And the partitions that we had created are, as I said, quite literal according to the balance. At the moment, the agent creates the deal or the facility. We create the tokens and send them to the committed partition. When the borrower disposes the money, as the name suggests, the tokens representing this debt is going to the drone partition. After the payments have been processed, especially in the third loan, there's a difference here because they're borrowing when the borrower pays a quantity, it's available again to do another drawdown. Then in the third loan, we used to send the tokens in the paid partition. The unpaid partition is currently prepared for attending defaults and expired is when the deal matures. This can be also borne, but in this case, we are sending them to expired. As an example, for instance, we have below a token distribution after the first repayment. On the left, we have all the lenders. They have the tokens in the drawn amount. And after the first payment, we can consider that the subtract of the drawn amount less the first payment are still in the drawn partition while the paid amount are in the paid partition. To conclude, a small recap of the benefits that Jorge has explained for this platform. First of all, it's improving efficiency because it's standardizing the life cycle management and reducing back of this cost due to the style it can be the single source of truth for this information. Then it's a tool for providing liquidity to the syndicated loan market by providing a secondary market. And then we consider that we are shaping the future by enabling new business model in real-world assets organization. For instance, certain depth tokens can be included in stock indexes or in investment funds, for instance. And that's all. Thank you so much. Let's see your questions. I've seen that Thomas has already answered some of them, but Jorge, this is, ah, you already answered some of them too. Yeah, I answered, yeah. There's a question, if the network is bagged by a dollar started by bank or tokenized by a tokenized ball. At the moment, we are using tokenized money that is in one of the banks of the consortium. But that could be both in fact, yeah. But it's a private centralized solution. So at the moment, we don't have a... Yeah, correct. We basically, so the idea is to use, the solution we're gonna use is tokenized deposits, right? So at the end, the bottoms of the different banks participating in the syndicated loan would be tokenized and used for the TVP. That's basically how we do it, yeah. I see another question from Jeremy in which applicable uses in the EU. I'm sorry, I don't get what you mean by applicable uses. Sorry about that. Jeremy, if you would like to ask the question live, I can also unmute you. Would you like to do that? Ah, okay. Well, first of all, reading properly the first question, we are working in Europe, so there's no dollars stored, are euros at the moment, but it's a fiat currency, so it's the same. We are applying these four syndicated loans. The main issue in syndicated loans that is not a single bank who gives you the money because there's a lot of risk there. We are talking about a huge quantity of money, so they split the risk in several entities. This tool is a centralized tool that allows to reduce all backoffice for every entity in the bank. But the solution can be also applied, for instance, tokenizing sustainable trades, for instance, or another kind of grow funding funds for projects, and everything that the funds come from different sources can be applied through this platform in order to manage and orchestrate all the proceedings during the life cycle. Yeah, correct. And then in terms of, yeah, because, so the first, we are currently working with European banks, as Oscar mentioned, but the idea is that the platform is gonna follow the LMA standard, right? The Loan Market Association standard. So the idea is that it would be applicable, and that's the idea. So the banks we work with have a global footprint, and the idea is to use this for syndications in Europe, Asia, Latin America, North America. So, I mean, as you know, the Loan Market, the syndicated Loan Market is very similar, the different geographies, as a result with the same standard in terms of the LMA standard for the contracts of the syndicated loans. So in this sense, it's a platform that would be not only applicable for European banks and transactions, but at a global footprint. Then I see another question from Jeremy. What do you guys do for the banks? So here and Oscar, please write me and add anything you want. So here, and I see another question asking which financial institutions we're working with. So unfortunately, the name of the financial institutions, I cannot mention them at this point, but the idea is we have developed this platform with, as I said, with European banks, top tier, very global institutions. And then the idea is that we want to do a real, we want to tokenize the real syndicated loan in the coming months, ideally before summer. So at that point, we'll make it oblique and the banks will know what we did is we basically did all the development of the platform. We did all the development working with our innovation and tech teams and working with our business teams, right? In order to pretty much understand all the logics and make sure it's first a compliant solution, but it's a solution that makes sense and that can integrate with their core banking systems, with their accountability systems, with the risk systems, everything, right? And that in terms of how it works and all the different possibilities, as I said, in terms of how we calculate the interest, how the drawdowns are made, how what types of governance, what types of waivers can be applied, everything has been developing alongside the business and the back-office teams of the banks. So that's why it was a short effort in this sense. We basically learned from their business and back-office needs and we tried to translate this into this platform. Yeah, Jeremy is asking further questions about your answer. Is basically he's asking if we can tokenize business experience or the transactions or, well, for instance, he's talking about energy markets. We have another initiative on that field. We do hope, I believe, that you invite us in another talk to explain further the other business cases, but yes, we are tokenizing not the experience, but just facts behind all the business models. There's another question regarding the token standard. Maybe one is for you and the other for me. The question is if the RC 1410 is compliant with the European regulators, I don't know if analyzing Mica and the work done by our legal consultants, do we have this information at the moment? But the other question is, which is the benefit to use the standard 1410 instead of the standard ERC 20? Basically, it's the functions that are already developed. We can build them from scratch, but at the end of the day, we are taking advantage of those standards that has already implemented functions. So that's why we used the 1410 using the partitions. Yeah, correct. And then in terms of if it's compliant with European regulators, yes. And it's a standard we're using on other projects for some infrastructures, regulated infrastructures with a regulated secondary market, and yes, it is a standard compliant with European regulators. Yeah. There's another question regarding stable cons or money. Basically, it's asking if we move funds using traditional methods. We have several projects and one of them is moving at the end of the day, are moving funds through the traditional FIA transfers because the person who needs the money at the end, it needs the money in a traditional bank account to pay their spendings, but in other projects, we are using stable coins and electronic money, yeah. Yeah, correct. And then in terms of this platform, I would say that probably for the first or the several first transactions, we'll use the solution I told you, which is tokenizing the bank deposits and we're gonna start with that solution, but mainly because, I mean, we're working with regulated entities, in this case with banks, as you know, they probably feel more comfortable at this stage, but yeah, I think the exploring the stable coin solution is in the roadmap and could be done. We're not gonna start there, but I believe it could be there in the roadmap at some point. A couple of technical questions. If the solution is on-premise or on-cloud, at the moment is a cloud solution, we can install it on-premises, but we are software as a service at the moment. Another question is if I can explain a bit about the 14th and standard. Well, actually it's an evolution of, it departs from RC20 standard, we could consider that each partition is an RC20 standard, but then they'd have developed several functionalities to define partitions of different status, basically enabling partial functionality functions. I'm sure you can find further information in Ethereum website. Yeah, then there is one question from Pilarme. Pilarme, sorry if I don't pronounce it right. So in terms of how do we deal with hedge issues when dealing with emerging market syndicated loans? Yeah, I mean, here we can have well, currency, so currency risks, so the currency is devaluating or interest rates risk as well. In this sense, we currently don't deal with that. So in case there is a syndicated loan that has any type of derivative, I mean, interest rates drop or a cross currency drop or whatever that would be done outside the platform. This is more like a middle office instrument at this point. It's gonna register the information and it's gonna make sure that you have a single platform where everything is registered or all the actors are imported, but you wouldn't include the derivative. You wouldn't include the swap in the, and you would not do it through this platform. I don't know if I'm answering this question. Then in terms of, yeah, the next one, I think you can answer that one. Oscar, how would you hold the keys if we use FireBlogs or? Yes, at the moment we have integrations with some of the technology providers, I guess those are Onis and another, I think was FireBlogs the other that we have been working on, but we are starting to work with the custodial providers of the embankments that are participating in this project. So we are integrating those technological service providers. Perfect. I'm trying to see if there's any, because the questions have been scrolling down. Yeah, I mean, the next one is how about energy markets, like an energy supplier becoming the bank? So, yes, I mean, at this point is the solution is focused on syndicated long market. The idea is that using a lot of the functionalities of this platform and a lot of the logic we can develop some other solutions, right? So a lot of these logics can be applied for this case, if a supplier becomes the banks and gives the financing, it's more like a receivable type of project. I don't know if that's what you mean. It would not be this platform, but I believe some of the logics would apply and it's something we want to at some point evolve it, because we believe it makes sense for the factoring, confirming the receivables market. Then also a lot of the logics for this syndicated long platform can be applied, as I mentioned at the beginning of the talk for private markets, such as the private credit market, right? At the end is pretty much having a non-bank lenders, which are the ones providing the liquidity and then they do it through a private credit to organization platform. And it's something we're looking into it and having very interesting discussions, we believe it makes a lot of sense as well. Okay, next one, Oscar, this one's for you. Technical architecture question. I was asking this writing, but I don't know what happened. Basically, I wanted to say that the tokens are stored on chain on the smart contract, but considering that it's a private permissioned network, it cannot be easily exported. So in fact, the settlement of these operations, we could say that the secondary market is negotiated outside the platform and we just include the settlements inside the platform to keep track who the owner is. Yeah, next one. Okay, next one, how does the application maintain liquidity? Is it backed by real-time funds in Fiat? So yeah, so as we mentioned, the idea here is that basically in a syndicated loan, I mean, how can I put it? Basically you have different stages, right? So in here you have the older origination, the internal approvals, the structure in phase is done before using the platform, right? This is pretty much after execution. So when the contracts are executed, a sign is when you input all the information and you basically register in DLT all the participations of the different banks and their commitments or whether it's a term loan or an RCAC, right? So at that point, the banks receive tokens that represent their participation in the syndicated loan, either a term loan or a DRCF. And then when the board does the drawdown, basically what banks have to do is that they have to, well, the banks have their deposits that are tokenized and represented in DLT and these past tokens are sent to the wallet of the borrower, right? Then the banks, when they have the token that represents their participation in the syndicated lending facility, what they can do is that they have this secondary market. I mean, as I said, keep in mind that it's not really a market, so it's not a super liquid market, but it's gonna provide certain equities so that older banks or at some point in times of debt funds or players would, after doing all the KYC, AML and being onboarded in the platform, they would be able to buy these tickets and buy the loans that represent the participation in the syndicated loan, right? So when they have gone through certain, I mean, they have passed their, as I said, the KYC, the ML requirements, et cetera, and they tokenize the money and they have this balance of tokenized deposits, then the GDP will occur and they will receive the tokens in this secondary market. So I mean, the idea is that when you ask how is the equity team maintained is basically, it works the same way as the current syndicated loan market. It's basically a more efficient, and we're using this technology because it's more efficient because we believe that it works better than the current systems. Okay, yeah, that was the question of Saura. Then as she has another one, do the individual loans get a unique token or a standard platform token when the loan is tokenized? Also for lenders, can they exist one loan and get into another loan? Yes, actually lenders can participate in every loan that an agent bank suggests them if they want. And each loan, we create a number of tokens representing all the type of the loan. Those tokens are distributed among the lenders. So there's several tokens for a single loan. Yeah, and then the idea of these platforms that is going to be an open platform so that different banks can enter into different syndicated loans. And I mean, one bank can participate as I said in different syndicated loans and it can participate in one of the loans as a lender, that's in loan number one of the platform. Loan number two with another board where they could be acting as agent bank. In loan number three, they could be also a lender. So the idea is that they can have different roles depending on the syndicated facility. And if they are the agent bank, they would get different fees than the rest of the banks and they will have different responsibilities. But yeah, it's an open platform and the idea is that it offers flexibility for banks in this sense. Yeah. The next question, well, first of all, considering that all the banks that are in the same consortium seems the same contract. So absolute transfer and, sorry. Absolute privacy is impossible, but what we can do is deploy several access nodes where each entity has their own access node. So probably we can mask such a part of the transactions. But as I said, if they are participating in a syndicated loan, they are signing the same contracts so they will know each other participation at the end of the day. Yeah, but that would be for the same loan. Then I think what you're asking is if they can see the rest of the portfolio and the answer is not, what Oscar was mentioning is that it is the same as in a syndicated loan facility currently, that the bank that purchased the facility, they all sign the same contract and they know the participation and the tickets of the different banks, but then the rest of the information would not be available. So the idea is that if you participate in loan number one, that doesn't mean that you know all the portfolio of all the banks. If a bank has a bilateral loan or participate in another syndicated loan when you are not involved, you're not gonna get access to that information. Yeah, next question from Lermer. Yeah, I mentioned your name, right? And then if we sell those financial instruments, no. So, yeah, as you said here, we are the tech service provider. So we develop the platform. The platform, the idea is that it's going to be owned by a joint venture of different banks, right? The idea is that different banks or probably, I mean, we'll see how the structure of this vehicle, this is going to be at the end for the ideas for it to be an open platform with different stakeholders that can be different banks so it can be, I don't know, all the players, but then the idea is that what we're going to do is provide the development of the platform. We're not gonna be the ones operating the platform or selling the tokens or at the end, the syndicated loan market is the end of these private contracts, right? And it's a private relationship between the banks that want to participate in the syndicate and the borrower. And we're not gonna be the ones selling the tokens to investor, we are only providing the tech development. Yeah, Thomas? Jorge and Oscar, thank you so much for this. I just wanted to mention we have three minutes left. So maybe we can take one more question and then we'll have to wrap it up. And also some people are asking how to get in contact with you and I know that we discussed it right and there are your contact information on the last slides. Oh, there you go. Thank you, Oscar. Oscar had just put it in the chat as well. Would you guys like to take one last question? And I have to apologize to people whose questions we didn't get to and you can later contact Oscar and Jorge. But maybe do we have, can you answer one last question maybe? Yeah, of course. Mayuri can answer the last one. Okay, Oscar, the private or public blockchain application. And well, before we answer that just, and I think we mentioned at the beginning, we, I mean, you have our names here, we're emails or you can reach us on LinkedIn and happy to answer questions and get back to you on some of these questions. Yeah, so Oscar, do you want to take the last one? Well, I already answered the last one. You did? Yeah, just one remaining. That makes the syndicate law difficult if you can look into the operation with transparency. Well, it's not a, it's not a question, it's an opinion about this business case, about what you said and yeah.  You're gonna have transparency and you're gonna have the ideas at some point to have the contract registered in DLT, to know the participation of all the banks, to have a registry of all the interest that have been paid, the amounts that have been drawn, the amounts that are still committed, to understand like all the payments and all the drawdowns made from all the banks in the syndicated facility, right? So I mean, in this sense I understand what you are asking Jeremy and I think it's because of the last sense I gave, but I think this brings a lot of transparency and it's gonna help the back office teams have a tool with all the information is first transparent and it's immutable and it's like a single source of truth, which is something that, I mean, the syndicate law market currently, there are a lot of issues and there are a lot of errors and this is going to bring a lot of benefits to this market, yeah. Great, thank you so much and apologies for everybody whose questions didn't get answered. I mean, it's great to see all of these questions and interests in the topic and thank you so much Oscar and Jorge for answering all of these things and thank you for sharing your contact details.

Hey everyone, welcome back to Six Sister Stuff. Today I'm sharing with you 10 easy side dishes for dinnertime.  For example, sometimes your baby decides she doesn't want to take a nap right during your scheduled filming time, or your daughter forgets her lunchbox or you're all ready to have a delicious meal when you realize your meat is still frozen and you're not gonna have that that night.  Now there's a lot of things that could go wrong in the day. So I thought I'd share with you some of my favorite wins and those are side dishes. So these side dishes, super simple, super easy. Hopefully it will make dinner just a little bit easier for you guys. All right, let's jump into the recipes. The first recipe I'm making is mini garlic monkey bread. Now I love this because it only takes a few minutes to throw together and to cook. All right, for this recipe, you need two cans of biscuits.  And that's it. All right, you're first gonna take six tablespoons of butter and we're gonna microwave it. Next, two tablespoons of dried parsley. So it calls for four cloves of garlic. We're just gonna guess there. And about a fourth cup of grated Parmesan cheese. We're gonna add a little more because it's better that way. And we're just gonna mix this all together. Now for the fun part, the biscuits. So you're gonna take each biscuit and cut it. I just like to use scissors. You can use a pizza cutter too or a knife, whatever works for you. And we're just gonna cut your biscuit into fourths. Okay, so I've done one can of biscuits. I'm actually just going to throw in about six pieces at a time. There we go, six. We're gonna cover them all and then we'll put them into the muffin tin. I hope you can hear that noise in the background.   So you're gonna have to kind of mush them in there. This is monkey bread. So we like them smushed. Now these biscuits are kind of big. So we're actually, I think we'll just fit five on here today. All right, you're gonna cook these in the oven at 400 degrees for about 12 minutes. I'm gonna go 10 first just to watch them. Okay, look how fun that is. Monkey bread. Next up is our pistachio jello salad. Now I love this because it only takes about five minutes from start to finish and you just dump everything in and mix it together. All right, the first thing you need is pistachio jello. Now this is instant pudding. You wanna make sure you get instant. Next we're gonna just have some pineapple tippets, some cool whip, yes. Bananas and marshmallows. That's all you need. All right, first thing we're gonna add is the pistachio jello just into the bottom of the bowl. Next we're gonna add just our pineapple juice, not the pineapple yet. Then you're just going to whisk it up really good till it's nice and smooth. Next is my favorite part, the cool whip. If you've been around for a while, you know how much. I love it. So we're just gonna add eight ounces of cool whip. So like a whole little container. Then you're just going to slowly, not slowly, but mix in all the pudding with the cool whip. And if you need to grab a spoon, it might make it a little bit easier than a whisk to mix all together. So now you have like your base. We're gonna add the good stuff inside. So we have the rest of the pineapple. We used the juice, now we just want the pineapple. We like to add marshmallows. So on the recipe, it calls for two cups of marshmallows and we're just gonna kind of eyeball this. If you need more marshmallows, go for it. All right, and then we just have two bananas that we're just going to cut into little slices. I like to make them pretty small so they're bite size, but yeah, right into the bowl. Now it's time to carefully mix this all together. Warning, you will want a little bit bigger bowl just because there is a lot. This makes quite a bit. All right guys, this is done and that is it. I love that it just takes five minutes. You don't even have to wait for it to set up. You could serve it right now. Now if you're looking for something a little bit healthier, next up is our Instant Pot green beans. So I have two tablespoons of butter, one cup of water, one pound of green beans, and then on top of the green beans, I'm gonna add just a little bit like a teaspoon of garlic and go ahead and put your lid on, make sure it's all the way tight.  Now I cook mine for five and they're really well done. You can even do two minutes and they'll still be good. Now when it shows the L, that means that the timer is done and you're ready to let the steam out. So that's called the quick release. So I turn the little knob. Once all the pressure is out, my lid will come off and my beans are ready to go. So all I have to do is mix them around a little bit. Now one of my favorite things is when the garlic pressurizes, it kind of pressurizes the garlic flavor into all of the beans. It's one of my most favorite things to make. So these beans are done and we are all ready to serve. So I like to serve them in just a serving dish, individual bowls, however you like to do it. Now I love this one for summer. This is our three ingredient avocado salad.   I like to make them into small bite size pieces and go ahead and dump those into your serving bowl. Next, we're going to cut up the avocados. I also like to cut these into small bite size pieces because you don't want a huge bite of avocado and nothing else. Next, we're going to chop up some artichokes. Depending on how many you like, this is a large jar of artichokes. I'm cutting up about half of them. Now for a little bit more flavor, I like to add a little bit of the liquid that artichokes were sitting in and then just mix it up. Now it's almost corn season. Instant pot corn is our next recipe. I love doing this way more than I love boiling my corn. Now if you've never made corn in the instant pot, now's the time to do it. You don't have to watch it. You don't have to wait for it. So I took one cup of water and I threw four ears of corn on. You could add probably one more in a six quart instant pot. Now if you're using a three quart one, go ahead and split the corn in half. If you're using an eight quart, you can add more corn if you want. All right, we're going to close the lid and put it on sealing. And now for my favorite part because it really doesn't take a lot of time, I'm going to push manual and go all the way down to five minutes. Now once it's done, I do a quick release so I can eat my corn faster. But if you do need to wait a little bit, it is fine just to sit in the instant pot until dinner is ready. This is a family favorite. We had it growing up all the time. So next up is our honey carrots. Now I love to use these bagged carrots because I usually mix everything in this bag, but my three year old got to it first and got a little whole. So now I'm going to mix it all together in a Ziploc bag for you. Next, you're going to pour about three tablespoons of olive oil onto your carrots.  So it will cover every single carrot. Then go ahead and dump your carrots onto a cookie sheet. Now, I usually like to take that same bag and kind of just spread them around. You don't want carrots on top of each other when they cook. Next, you're going to add about a teaspoon or so of salt to spreading it all along the carrots evenly. You're going to do the same with pepper. If you don't love pepper, you don't have to add it, but I love pepper with these carrots. Next, you're going to drizzle about three tablespoons or so of honey right on to your carrots. You just want to make sure every carrot gets a little bit of honey. When you're done, you're going to go ahead and bake those at 400 degrees for about 20 to 25 minutes or until your carrots are the texture that you like them. I like them very cooked. So I go about 30 minutes every time. Now, I like to add just a little bit more honey on top right before I serve them just to get that little added sweetness. It's my favorite. I love having vegetables as a side. So our next recipe is parmesan zucchini sticks. So for this recipe, you need some small crumbled parmesan cheese, two eggs, three zucchinis, and then some Italian panko breadcrumbs. Now you want to cut up your zucchini so they're about the size of normal fries. Now, if you have foil, you want to line a cookie sheet with foil. It will make your cleanup so much better. So now I need two containers for my mixture. So I'm using cake pans. We're going to put two eggs in one, mix it up really good. And in the other pan, we're going to add about a half a cup of the panko crumbs and then about a fourth a cup of the parmesan. Then just mix that up until it's well combined. Now it's time to put it all together. So I have my zucchini all cut up, ready to go. So you're going to take a few pieces. I did a few pieces at one time and just kind of mix them around in the egg mixture. Then you're just going to put it right over into the crumbs, panko crumbs, breadcrumbs. Yeah, that's what it's called the panko and parmesan. And then just put it right onto your cookie sheets. Then just do the same thing with all of the zucchini. And when you are all done, it is time to bake. So we are going to preheat the oven to 425 degrees. We are going to cook these for about 10 to 12 minutes until they are nice and baked. After the 10 to 12 minutes, go ahead and open it up. You're going to flip over the fries as carefully as possible not to burn yourself, please. And then you're going to close the oven and we're going to cook them for about another 10 to 12 minutes. Then when they are all the way done, just pull them out. They should be nice and browned and they're kind of crispy just like fries. Your kids won't even know that these are zucchini. Next up is our three ingredient parmesan rolls. For this recipe, you need 12 frozen dinner rolls, a half a cup of butter. I like salted butter and then one cup of parmesan cheese. Now I microwaved my butter in a microwave safe bowl and we're going to dip the frozen roll. It's totally frozen into the butter. Mixed around a little bit. Then you're going to go straight into the parmesan. Mix it. If you need to press parmesan onto it, you can. Then you're going to put it into a 9 by 13 pan that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Now you're just going to continue this step until all 12 rolls are onto your pan. Now these rolls need to rise. So we're going to cover them with saran wrap and put them in a warm place. I like to put them kind of in the sun or just a spot where it's going to be warm so they will rise a little faster. Now once they are doubled in size, go ahead and put them in the oven. You're going to cook them at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes or until they are golden brown on top. Next up is Instant Pot Creamy Mac and Cheese. Now it could be a main dish but I'm using it as a side dish today. Now my noodle of choice today is small shell noodles. So you just need one pound of noodles. Then you're going to put them in the bottom of your Instant Pot. You're going to take your pot and fill it just until the noodles are covered with water. Next go ahead and put your lid on. Make sure it's sealed correctly. Now if you have a knob you want to turn it to ceiling not venting. Next you'll push manual or pressure cook button and go to four minutes. Now after a few seconds it will say on that means you're good. You can walk away. Now after the four minutes you can turn the knob to release it but just beware with pasta sometimes it makes a giant mess. So you can turn it back and forth releasing the pressure slowly. Once all the pressures out go ahead and lift the lid up and your pasta should be done. Now I didn't need to drain any water because there is no water left to drain. So go ahead and mix up your noodles before you add the other ingredients. So first I'm going to add about eight tablespoons of butter. I like to use salted butter. That's my favorite in macaroni and cheese. Next you're going to add about a half a cup of milk. Now we're going to add a little bit more but right now we're just going to add half a cup. Then we're going to add two cups of sharp cheddar white cheese. Did you hear that? Sharp cheddar cheese. It is amazing. And then about a half a cup to a cup of shredded Parmesan. So now it's time to just mix everything in. So slowly, gently mix it in. Now it'd be easier to push the saute button just to get it warm or warmer on the bottom to melt your butter faster and to melt your cheese faster. Now because it is really cheesy you want to make sure to add just a little bit more liquid just so you can make it creamy not so chunky cheesy. So I added a half a cup more of milk. Then you're just going to continue mixing until all of your butter is melted and all of your cheese is mixed together. Now you can add just a little bit of salt and pepper. I just like to add salt in my mac and cheese and then go ahead and mix that in as well. Now when you're all done your cheese should be nice and creamy. This is how we like it. Now when I serve it I also like to add just a little bit of Parmesan cheese on top. And my last recipe is instant pot potato salad. I love this because you can cook your eggs and your potatoes at the same time. So this recipe calls for eight red potatoes chopped up into small bite-sized pieces. They'll cook better in the instant pot if they're smaller. Then it calls for eight eggs but because I love hard-boiled eggs I'm actually going to stick all 12 eggs into the instant pot. And as you can see I am putting them right on top of the potatoes. Now everything needs to pressurize so add one cup of water right on top of everything. Now you're just going to put your lid on and make sure that your little knob is on sealing because you want it to pressurize. Now I push the manual button because I use manual for almost everything and go all the way down to six minutes. When you're done go ahead and switch it over to venting so it can release its pressure. Now while the pressure was releasing I ran and grabbed a bowl of water ice water that I smelted rather quickly so I can put my eggs right into it.  I did wash my potatoes but there's always some things that you do miss plus I leave the skins on my potatoes which also causes the eggs to be a little speckly. So as you can see I am just putting my eggs right into the ice water. Now I'm just going to take my potatoes and wash them and strain them in cold water. So first I'm going to add three fourths cup of pickles whether you like dill or sweet it doesn't matter. I love dill pickles. I'm going to set that to the side for a minute while I make the mixture, the good stuff. So I have one cup of mayonnaise and I'm adding two tablespoons of mustard. Then I added a little bit of pepper a little bit of garlic salt you can use normal salt if you like and then you're going to add one teaspoon of vinegar or you can use your pickle juice. Then add one teaspoon of sugar on top.  Now this recipe does only call for two tablespoons of mustard I added about three because my family and I we love mustard. All right, now it's time for the eggs. They should be all ready to go once you put all that other stuff together. So I'm just going to go drain them and dry them a little bit. Now one thing I love about the Instant Pot is that it cooks your eggs perfectly and you only have to do it for six minutes when it's on top of the potatoes because the potatoes actually make them cook even faster. So the eggshell comes off so easy and now you're just going to dice them right up. I like to do small bite-sized pieces to make it easier for everyone. Now I chopped up eight eggs so all the eggs will be going in. Now when my mom made this she used to cook extra eggs also because she would slice them up and put them on top. But okay, now we're going to get to the sauce.  Now if it's a little too dry you can always add a little bit more mayonnaise or a little bit more mustard depending on what you like. Now as you're mixing try and mix as gently as you can so you don't smash the potatoes and smash the eggs even more. You want them in whole pieces. All right, now if you want some delicious main dishes to go with the side dishes you can find some of my favorites right up there. And if you haven't subscribed yet now would be the time. All right guys, I'll see you later. Bye.


Hey friends today, we're hanging out at Disney's Hollywood Studios I wanted to come out and see all the cool Muppet Haunted Mansion things they have to offer Including the eclairs and the pre-show to Muppet Vision 3d They've added all these things because the Muppet Haunted Mansion is available to be watched on Disney Plus now But also I wanted to see the beacons of magic projection show on the Tower of Terror. Anyhoo's Let's go do this Looks like the park is open till 9 o'clock tonight, and that's awesome I love the fact the parks are actually open later than usual Especially during the 50th because it gives you more time to get everything accomplished If you guys got the chance to watch the Muppet Haunted Mansion Let me know what you guys think it's on Disney Plus And I think it was just released yesterday and I watched it and I was like alright I like this I like how it's basically kind of like a walk through the Haunted Mansion attraction very cool Also another really cool thing to point out Indiana Jones epic stunt spectacular comes back December 19th And guess what that's my birthday, so I'm not too sure I'm gonna be here to actually see it for the first day Even though it is a good show I think I'd be doing other things on my birthday, but it's nice to see a lot of the entertainment coming back. I Think Hollywood Studios has the least amount of 50th anniversary offerings In fact, I think that they opened up the rise of the resistance boarding groups or the standby line Because they knew that a lot of people will be visiting Magic Kingdom and Epcot And we give them a reason to come over to Hollywood Studios because they didn't need to get a boarding group Maybe that and also because they wanted to test run the virtual queue with Remy's Ratatouille adventure But there's not too much 50th anniversary stuff here a couple snacks the beacons of magic Projection show in the Tower of Terror and that only lasts like a couple seconds But I do like how they added some ghost in the window and that is something I'm looking forward to seeing We're gonna jump right down to Grand Park so that we can get ourselves the Muppet Haunted Mansion Eclairs from Pizza Rizzo and then we're gonna watch Muppet Vision 3d that has a Muppets Haunted Mansion pre-show now and you can see all the different banners actually hanging up here a Party to die for oh and they even have a poster over here. I'm really loving it I mean I love the Haunted Mansion and I do love the Muppets and I'd like to see that nice crossover that they did It's very fun The Haunted Mansion eclairs that are in Pizza Rizzo are all the stretching portraits But kind of like a Muppets version of them and they're all the same flavor eclair I believe but there are four different ones so I ordered two of them and Hopefully we'll get two different ones. I would like to see what all four of them look like But I don't think I can eat four of the same eclairs And here they are take a look at that. So we got two different types of them I don't think they have all four the stretching portraits They do have this one that just says Muppet Haunted Mansion But I also got one of the stretching portraits and if you see the show you'll actually see these Actually in the show and I think that's really cool I also got the frozen apple cider with boba balls and that's kind of like a Halloween drink And I'm excited to try them. They are the same exact eclair The only reason I got two is because I wanted to see what they look like they're like the Cartoons on top and these are just little candies. So I think we'll start with this one. I Can already tell this is going to be a very difficult thing to eat I'm tempted to break it in half But I kind of just want to take a bite kind of just like a hot dog because it doesn't look like a hot dog Doesn't it like the way that it stacked up like that. Maybe I'll like push it down a little bit. All right That's how we're gonna do it. We're gonna push it down a little bit like this and hopefully Like it doesn't just like fall apart and get me completely messy. Anyway, here we go It is a very chocolatey eclair I like it. I like it because of the crispy pearls on it and the purple dye Really actually like dies your skin. So be careful your fingers will definitely be purple after eating this and it's gonna be tough I'm not gonna be able to eat all of these because it is a lot of sweets. I wish I can collect it Like if I can save these and actually put them in my fridge I probably would and then break them out next year because that would be really fancy. I need to collect them all though Since I actually ate the other one kind of like a hot dog I figured I'd break this one in half to show you guys. So here we go on. Is this gonna work good? Nope, that did not work it good at all Also, I have to say I really love the frozen apple cider with the boba balls. This is very refreshing But as I was sitting here, I noticed an abundance amount of popcorn at my feet And I think that we have a missing duck problem here at Hollywood Studios If there were ducks here at Hollywood Studios, there wouldn't be popcorn on the ground like this You know, I feel like the ducks have gone elsewhere. Maybe they're over at Animal Kingdom with the birds at Flametree barbecue I'm really not the biggest fan of Boba balls, but I feel like they're putting it in everything here Oh, I wonder if I get any of that purple stuff all over my face. No, I'm looking good Also, I noticed that the Halloween drink is in a 50th anniversary cup So is it a 50th anniversary Halloween drink? I mean we can just pretend like it is Now that we've had our Haunted Mansion Eclairs, I think it's time to head on in and watch Muppet Vision 3D Now there's nothing new to Muppet Vision 3D the show itself They just added a Muppet's Haunted Mansion pre-show to it as you wait But also it's nice to see the lightning lane open. This is gonna be one of the free Passes that you get with the $15 genie plus I think here at Hollywood Studios, you have to pay to ride Rise of the Resistance and Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway, but this one's gonna be included so you can definitely use it up and yeah, it's a fun little attraction. I like it a lot Look at this Welcome to the home of Theatrical Friends Where not all guests survive the night And the people who live to talk There are those who don't They're all rockin' Welcome for a show of this To tonight's very special Halloween challenge Just have to Now if you'll follow me gentlemen And don't flash pictures please The spirits of Christmas Is this Haunted Roman actually stretching? Or is it?  I'm running away Nobody would let me help in the movie A lot of fun I like how they add the Haunted Mansion into the pre-show Because that's a good way to market it Especially since it's October And it's Halloween time So it's kind of like a Halloween overlay To the Muppet's Vision 3D I'm sure they're gonna take that away once the month of October is over It wouldn't make much sense to be in there But I like it a lot And I like seeing sweetums And also just seeing Muppet Vision 3D Because that was the last project that Jim Henson Actually worked on personally before he passed away So it's kind of like a little historical piece right here At Hollywood Studios Now I think it'd be fun to head on over to the Hollywood Tower Hotel And ride the other ghostly attraction at Walt Disney World It's funny because we're at Hollywood Studios We're all about the Muppets Haunted Mansion And then they have the Hollywood Tower Hotel here Two attractions that have ghosts surrounding them And it'd be cool to see a Muppet's Takeover on the Tower Hotel That'd be a fun episode There's a lot of cool crossover things It doesn't even have to be the Muppets Like, I mean, I love the original Hollywood Tower Hotel movie With Steve Gutenberg I don't know if you've ever seen that And Kirsten Dunn's It was really fun It's a lot older And I was excited to hear that they were gonna remake it But now that is canceled That they need to make a Hollywood Tower Hotel movie, though That would be amazing Of course, later on We're gonna come back and watch the projection show On the Hollywood Tower Hotel It's not really a projection show It's just a special projection For the 58th anniversary Beacons of Magic And they're doing it at all the parts So you can see it on the Tree of Life You can see it on Spaceship Earth On the Castle And then here at the Tower Hotel It's gonna be really, like, beautiful I love actually seeing the projection show For the Christmas season Or like during the Christmas time here at the Tower Hotel That's really fun As I was making my way down to the Hollywood Tower Hotel Take a look at the cool Disney Photo Pass prop That they have right here Look at that, you can take a photo with this And the Tower Hotel at the same time And I just love it Really, really cool Looks like the Tower of Terror is a 30 minute wait So we're gonna hop in line Because, like I said, it just fits the theme You know what I mean? Just hopping from ghoulish to ghoulish rides Looks like we're gonna be waiting in line For quite a long while Since it's all the way out here By the Lightning Lane sign And it's also good to point out That this is a part of the Genie Plus So you're gonna be able to ride this With the $15 for the whole day And just take a look at that I can't wait to see the ghost in the windows You know, there's always one ghost In that top left window But because of the projections They added a little bit more So I'm hoping to spot those tonight The Hollywood Tower Hotel Has been closed since October 31st, 1939 The management assumes no responsibility Keep out! One of my favorite things Is looking at all the windows inside here And if you look back here There's actually somebody who looks like They were just about to write beware And it just says B-E So I'll try to zoom in for you I'm not too sure if you can see it Maybe if I move right there You see that? Isn't that so cool? It's like they were about to say beware But they weren't able to finish Thank you I will Beware Seriously, I just love it in here so much It is so awesome I wish I could just stand behind The check-in desk right there And get a photo It would be one of the best photos you can actually get Or I wish I could have some of those Hollywood Tower Hotel lampshades Okay, I don't think those googly eyes Are supposed to be on the statue Somebody put those on there But I think that is hysterical Look at that Unbelievable that nobody noticed it That is crazy Holy moly That is so funny that somebody Put little googly eyes on that statue They're like little stickers And I told the cast member And I don't think they took them away So if they're still there and you guys see them It is hysterical Oh, it's kind of fun to see everyone put their hands up Hands up Thank you Hands up I always love sitting in the front Of the elevator cart Because I feel like you get a better glimpse Down the hallway That's exactly what we got So we're going to be in row two Which is the front of the cart Hands up As we get off the tower Tara Goofy is Waving some heart shaped underpants It looks like How funny is that It's such a strange spot to actually see Goofy At the tower of terror Hi friend Look at that I love it That is so cool That was a fun tower of terror ride I like when they drop you down Before you go up You know what I mean So like you think you're going to shoot up But as soon as you actually go into the elevator shop That just drops you down It catches you off guard And I noticed that Some of the people that were actually In the cart with us Probably rode the Disneyland one Because once we got up past the hallway scene They thought we were going to fall immediately And if you've done the Disneyland And Walt Disney World one You know that there are two different rides So they probably only ever done that one before And they were shocked when they got on this one I on the opposite hand When I first did Disneyland I got so scared Because you don't go through Like that twilight zone terror Like hallway there You actually just drop And it caught me so off guard And I started screaming The wait times today are absolutely insane 70 minutes for Rise of the Resistance 90 minutes for Slinky Dog Dash Don't you think it's a little funny That Slinky Dog Dash has a longer wait time Than Rise of the Resistance? I mean I don't think I would ever Have seen that before Even Rockin' Roller Coasters are 40 minute wait But that blows my mind Doesn't that blow your mind? Slinky Dog Dash has a 90 minute wait time And Rise of the Resistance is at 70 minutes Like I would never have thought Rise of the Resistance would have a lower wait time Than Slinky Dog Dash Maybe that's because not too many people are familiar That the fact that Rise of the Resistance Is a standby line And everyone's just used to riding Slinky Dog Dash Also Slinky Dog Dash is one of the few rides In the park where you don't have to wear a mask So a lot of people probably like to ride that And it's outdoors and it's beautiful out The lights are on I think we're just gonna head right into Toy Story Land now Because it's beautiful over there at night Look at that Holy moly It is so beautiful out Hey friends, how are you? I like that hat Very fancy Yeah, thank you That was really cool He was wearing a fancy fedora But take a look at that sky And Slinky Dog Dash with the lights Isn't that just beautiful? Holy moly I love it I love being here at night The moon Wow, this is really awesome I could probably sit here all day And watch Slinky Dog Dash I'm not too sure why I came over To Toy Story Land Just to see all the pretty lights Because like I said, the wait times are super long But it's completely dark out now At least we get to look at the lights And I think we're gonna head back over to sunset So that we can see the Beacons of Magic On the Tower of Terror That was one of the things I wanted to accomplish today So it'll be nice to see And like I said, it's not a big big show But it is very pretty As we're making our way back Over to sunset I wanted to point out That they have the Muppet Tonic Mansion Like poster On the back of the Chinese theater Along with the Corella one too So they're really promoting the Disney Plus here I mean it is a cool thing though And that's kind of like the whole reason I came out today I was super excited about it So as far as I know The projection always stays up On the Tower of Terror But it kind of starts And does a little jingle Every like couple of minutes Like sporadically throughout the night And I don't know the timings There's no timings at all So I guess we'll just sit here and wait There it is right there Wow, it actually looks very beautiful And I did see people walking around Ghost And I assume they're actually at the Tip Top Club Right up in that far corner I'll try to zoom in for you Can you see people in the top Right there actually walking around Isn't that so amazing? It looks like they're dancing I want to be at the Tip Top Club That'd be the coolest thing ever So it's every 15 minutes And it looks like it's just about to happen So we've got a good spot lined up So I think that's going to do it for me Like I said it's just a quick like 20-30 second like show They sing the most magical place on earth And they do that all over They also do it on the Tree of Life At Animal Kingdom I did a video Just a couple days And this is the last stop So now I officially visited All four theme parks For the 50th anniversary And it only took me the first week You know what I mean But I did go back to Magic Kingdom Multiple times And Epcot too I've seen Hormonius like two or three times And Enchantment two or three times I wish they had like a nighttime show here I would love to see a 50th anniversary Phantasmic That would have been amazing But anyways I hope you enjoyed the video I enjoyed making it We'll see you next time Bye
