I'm Johny Fernandez. 2 00:00:03.390 --> 00:00:04.260 Sean Murray: And I'm Sean Murray. 3 00:00:04.260 --> 00:00:07.960 Johny Fernandez: And this is deBanked News Live.

Huge 6 00:00:17.770 --> 00:00:18.730 milestone. Congrats. 7 00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:22.450 Sean Murray: It is. Yeah. Thank you. Okay, yeah. Thanks. Thanks, 8 00:00:22.660 --> 00:00:23.860 where are the balloons? 9 00:00:24.370 --> 00:00:25.540 Johny Fernandez: There on the screen. 10 00:00:25.570 --> 00:00:27.490 Sean Murray: Okay, there's balloons on the screen. Okay. 11 00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:32.350 Awesome. Yeah. So today, we are celebrating 4000 days since 12 00:00:32.380 --> 00:00:36.070 deBanked first went live online, we started as a blog back in 13 00:00:36.070 --> 00:00:40.150 2010. It was originally called merchant processing resource, 14 00:00:40.270 --> 00:00:43.990 which is kind of a wordy, long name. Hard to remember, people 15 00:00:43.990 --> 00:00:47.140 would try typing like merchant processing source, merchant 16 00:00:47.140 --> 00:00:50.650 source. It would you know, you basically had to google it, to 17 00:00:50.650 --> 00:00:55.900 get to it. You know, google.com, google.com for those who are who 18 00:00:55.900 --> 00:00:58.930 are not familiar with just Google, don't put in .org. But 19 00:00:58.930 --> 00:01:02.380 yeah, we've been we've been around since since 2010. And 20 00:01:02.380 --> 00:01:07.630 today's, actually, I think, day 4001. Yesterday was was was 4000 21 00:01:07.630 --> 00:01:10.840 days. And that is about 11 years. So it's longer than 10 22 00:01:10.840 --> 00:01:14.500 years, we already had our 10 year anniversary. And now Now 23 00:01:14.500 --> 00:01:18.220 we're approaching on hitting the 11 year anniversary. So 4000 24 00:01:18.220 --> 00:01:21.430 days. Pretty incredible. Like. 25 00:01:21.820 --> 00:01:23.980 Johny Fernandez: Wait so the question, how'd you get from 26 00:01:24.070 --> 00:01:26.260 that super long name to deBanked.com? 27 00:01:27.830 --> 00:01:29.840 Sean Murray: So that's a good question. So when we first 28 00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:32.090 started when I first started it was just me, I was doing it from 29 00:01:32.090 --> 00:01:34.670 home while working in the alternative finance industry. I 30 00:01:34.670 --> 00:01:37.640 was a Broker. Fair legend. I don't know if I was I don't know 31 00:01:37.640 --> 00:01:40.670 if I don't know if I was a legend. But I started blogging 32 00:01:41.150 --> 00:01:42.860 about 11 years ago. 33 00:01:42.860 --> 00:01:43.940 Johny Fernandez: Did it start like, dear diary? 34 00:01:45.800 --> 00:01:48.650 Sean Murray: I don't know. That's I don't know how you blog 35 00:01:48.650 --> 00:01:52.370 back in the day. But no, it was it was a it was a very much like 36 00:01:52.370 --> 00:01:55.160 it was today in that it was well I guess it was more opinionated. 37 00:01:55.340 --> 00:01:58.340 Yeah. And written in more first person. I was writing from 38 00:01:58.340 --> 00:02:01.580 experience. I wasn't really reporting news. Yeah. So to 39 00:02:01.580 --> 00:02:04.490 speak. We weren't really a news site. It was more like. Yeah. 40 00:02:04.520 --> 00:02:07.580 Kind of like more like a behind the scenes from the trenches 41 00:02:07.730 --> 00:02:08.930 type of commentary. 42 00:02:08.930 --> 00:02:09.740 Johny Fernandez: A day in the life. 43 00:02:09.740 --> 00:02:11.760 Sean Murray: Yeah, a day a day in the life. That's exactly 44 00:02:11.850 --> 00:02:14.550 that's exactly what it was. And it was very heavily focused on 45 00:02:14.550 --> 00:02:18.000 merchant processing. That's the payments industry, with like 46 00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:20.430 merchant cash advance sprinkled in, cause payments was kind of 47 00:02:20.430 --> 00:02:25.470 the backbone of everything. Well, some years go by and 48 00:02:25.620 --> 00:02:30.030 finance kind of divorced itself from payments and alternative 49 00:02:30.030 --> 00:02:33.510 finance as we know it, fintech and all that kind of became its 50 00:02:33.510 --> 00:02:38.940 own genre, outside of payments. And the more popular part of our 51 00:02:38.940 --> 00:02:41.400 site was the finance part, it was the small business lending, 52 00:02:41.400 --> 00:02:43.440 it was the merchant cash advance, it was the peer to peer 53 00:02:43.440 --> 00:02:46.950 lending. So it made more sense to kind of to follow that end of 54 00:02:46.950 --> 00:02:51.120 it. And a lot of that innovation was happening in the world of 55 00:02:51.150 --> 00:02:55.020 non bank finance. These were not not banks, who were providing 56 00:02:55.020 --> 00:02:58.110 the capital. And so we, you know, I was thinking about how 57 00:02:58.110 --> 00:03:05.880 do you describe a universe? So, you know, perfectly, right? And 58 00:03:05.880 --> 00:03:09.720 can that word be used to make be the site? And so I went through 59 00:03:09.720 --> 00:03:12.900 a whole list of names, and deBanked was one of them. And 60 00:03:12.900 --> 00:03:16.110 then I had to do do the.com search, you know, does it 61 00:03:16.110 --> 00:03:19.080 already exist, is it taken, and then I had to do the trademark 62 00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:21.570 search. Okay. Because you can pick a name the.com is 63 00:03:21.570 --> 00:03:24.000 available, but somebody already has it as a trademark, then you 64 00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:26.550 could potentially be infringing upon. And so you have to go 65 00:03:26.550 --> 00:03:30.180 through all these searches. Back in, I don't know if it was 2013, 66 00:03:30.330 --> 00:03:34.500 2013, or 2014, that we changed the name, I changed the name to 67 00:03:34.500 --> 00:03:37.380 deBanked. But you know, I jumped through all the all the hoops, 68 00:03:37.740 --> 00:03:41.970 and the name was free to the domain was free, bought it up, 69 00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:44.340 changed the name actually registered the trademark, we 70 00:03:44.340 --> 00:03:49.170 have deBanked, as you know, with R inside the circle saying that 71 00:03:49.170 --> 00:03:52.920 it's a registered trademark, and deBanked is about the world 72 00:03:53.130 --> 00:03:55.350 outside of the traditional banking universe. 73 00:03:55.470 --> 00:03:59.190 Johny Fernandez: That's cool. And now it's TV, it's blossomed, 74 00:03:59.220 --> 00:04:02.520 and it will continue, excited to see what's to come conferences, 75 00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:06.240 TV, and the legend on board. 76 00:04:06.540 --> 00:04:09.450 Sean Murray: Yeah, yeah, I don't know how legend how legendary I 77 00:04:09.450 --> 00:04:12.360 am. But someone asked me last week, they told them, I'm like, 78 00:04:12.360 --> 00:04:17.880 hey, we have a milestone coming up at deBanked 4000 days. And 79 00:04:17.910 --> 00:04:22.410 they were like, wow, that's a long time. And they're like, are 80 00:04:22.410 --> 00:04:25.380 you happy with like, your progress? And I didn't know if 81 00:04:25.380 --> 00:04:29.010 that was supposed to be like a criticism. You know, like, you 82 00:04:29.010 --> 00:04:34.560 know, and you're only you know where you are with it. Yeah. And 83 00:04:34.950 --> 00:04:37.500 so that was actually it's a good way to think about it. Right? 84 00:04:37.530 --> 00:04:39.930 Are you happy with where you are? And you always want to be 85 00:04:39.930 --> 00:04:43.590 way ahead of where you are. Yeah. Especially since 4000 86 00:04:43.620 --> 00:04:46.920 days. It sounds like it sounds like a job. Yeah. It and it is a 87 00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:50.280 job. But a long time ago, this didn't exist. Yeah. And we 88 00:04:50.280 --> 00:04:53.430 clearly have proven proof of concept this is a startup type 89 00:04:53.430 --> 00:04:56.490 environment. We're a very small company. But we're not really a 90 00:04:56.490 --> 00:05:00.240 startup. Yeah. This is this is a needed business. Inside an 91 00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:07.020 industry that that requires this to exist. And so I did a little 92 00:05:07.020 --> 00:05:10.560 self examination like, hey, am I happy with where I am at 4000 93 00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:15.060 days because I didn't sign up for 4000 days when I started, I 94 00:05:15.060 --> 00:05:19.020 started more as a with more like a passion project in the 95 00:05:19.020 --> 00:05:23.070 beginning, and just kind of, you know, blossomed over time. And I 96 00:05:23.070 --> 00:05:26.940 never thought that I would still be here, doing this exact thing 97 00:05:26.970 --> 00:05:29.910 4000 days later. But I think if you take a look at, you know, 98 00:05:29.910 --> 00:05:33.240 the whole, you have to see if there's been any type of 99 00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:36.330 progress, right. And we've certainly grown. When I started, 100 00:05:36.330 --> 00:05:38.730 I didn't have any employees I was working out of my out of my 101 00:05:38.730 --> 00:05:43.290 apartment. Got my first office, maybe a year after I started. So 102 00:05:43.290 --> 00:05:46.650 that's like, 9, 10 years ago. Yeah. And obviously, we have a 103 00:05:46.650 --> 00:05:48.930 pretty big office here in Brooklyn. Yeah. But still a 104 00:05:48.930 --> 00:05:52.200 small team. And we, you know, we've, as you mentioned before, 105 00:05:52.200 --> 00:05:55.350 we have conferences, now we have TV, it's still kind of something 106 00:05:55.350 --> 00:05:58.620 that's a work in progress. But you know, we've also acquired 107 00:05:58.620 --> 00:06:02.340 the DailyFunder forum, right, we've we've added little pieces 108 00:06:02.400 --> 00:06:06.600 and bits along the way. And if you look at the growth over 109 00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:10.290 time, our revenue is certainly a lot, a lot larger than what it 110 00:06:10.290 --> 00:06:16.890 was 10 years ago, for sure. And, you know, COVID, did it did 111 00:06:16.890 --> 00:06:19.980 impact that a little bit. Yeah. Well, maybe more than a little. 112 00:06:20.940 --> 00:06:23.940 So, you know, we could have been ahead of where we are now. COVID 113 00:06:23.940 --> 00:06:26.430 kind of just slowed down the growth a little bit. But I'm 114 00:06:26.430 --> 00:06:30.450 pretty happy about where this is, after 4000 days, I feel like 115 00:06:31.410 --> 00:06:35.250 if, if I could look back and say, where could I hope to be in 116 00:06:35.250 --> 00:06:39.390 4000 days, I'd say I'd probably be happy with this outcome. And 117 00:06:39.420 --> 00:06:41.790 I still want to be further ahead, we're still looking for 118 00:06:41.790 --> 00:06:45.480 ways to grow and expand, I'm not the complacent type where I'm 119 00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:49.500 just satisfied with what I have, I wasn't really looking for a 120 00:06:49.530 --> 00:06:52.140 what they call lifestyle business. Where I come in here, 121 00:06:52.230 --> 00:06:54.480 we write a bunch of stories then go home, and then I hope, 122 00:06:54.480 --> 00:06:56.400 nothing changes it, you know what I mean, and I just go and 123 00:06:56.400 --> 00:06:58.530 live my life. And this is what I did. I think about this stuff 124 00:06:58.530 --> 00:07:01.920 all the time, alternative finance nonstop. And I think 125 00:07:01.920 --> 00:07:05.700 about ways that we can help the community and foster the 126 00:07:05.700 --> 00:07:08.010 alternative finance community and really play a role in that 127 00:07:08.100 --> 00:07:11.730 and also grow our company. And I think about it as a startup. You 128 00:07:11.730 --> 00:07:14.490 know, like, what can we do to become really, really big? Yeah. 129 00:07:14.670 --> 00:07:19.680 And, you know, I look at so many fintech stories, I'm very much 130 00:07:19.680 --> 00:07:23.520 interested in sort of following a similar type of path, while at 131 00:07:23.520 --> 00:07:26.730 the same time recognizing we're really media. And you know, 132 00:07:26.730 --> 00:07:28.830 we're not a fintech company. So we're not gonna have like series 133 00:07:28.830 --> 00:07:32.490 A's and series B's and all that type of stuff. You know, I've 134 00:07:32.490 --> 00:07:35.820 self financed the company from the beginning. But I'm still 135 00:07:35.820 --> 00:07:38.820 very much interested in and looking to see what more we can 136 00:07:38.820 --> 00:07:42.930 do. From this point on, I'd say, I'm you know, pretty happy with 137 00:07:42.960 --> 00:07:46.380 the 4000 day. Yeah. Point of where we're at right now. Yeah. 138 00:07:46.440 --> 00:07:48.750 Johny Fernandez: So speaking about growth and speaking about 139 00:07:48.930 --> 00:07:54.360 just, you know, seeing this company blossom. I know, we've 140 00:07:54.360 --> 00:07:57.390 been talking about different opportunities that have been 141 00:07:57.810 --> 00:08:01.080 presenting itself to deBanked. 142 00:08:02.020 --> 00:08:05.020 Sean Murray: Okay, yeah. So I think what Johny is talking 143 00:08:05.020 --> 00:08:07.780 about is that we just made a very, very, very small 144 00:08:07.780 --> 00:08:13.960 acquisition. We've acquired the Lend Academy Forum, not the 145 00:08:13.960 --> 00:08:18.910 entire Lend Academy site, but the Lend Academy forum. It is, 146 00:08:18.940 --> 00:08:22.180 to my knowledge, one of the oldest online lending slash peer 147 00:08:22.180 --> 00:08:26.740 to peer lending forums online. And the reason we acquired it 148 00:08:26.740 --> 00:08:30.940 was something happened with LendIt, LendIt it owns the Lend 149 00:08:30.940 --> 00:08:34.810 Academy Forum, in which they, they they lost the forum, they 150 00:08:34.810 --> 00:08:41.350 lost the server. And we had a unique, a unique solution to 151 00:08:41.350 --> 00:08:45.280 restore it. And so we talked to them, and we decided to just 152 00:08:45.310 --> 00:08:48.280 acquire it from them, should we be able to bring it back. And so 153 00:08:48.280 --> 00:08:51.550 far, we've actually been able to bring back a third of it in just 154 00:08:51.550 --> 00:08:54.760 a few short days. Yeah. So you can actually go to the Lend 155 00:08:54.760 --> 00:08:58.900 Academy Forum right now. It's not lendacademy.com. Anymore. 156 00:08:58.930 --> 00:09:01.390 It's gonna it's going to be on our site going forward. We 157 00:09:01.390 --> 00:09:05.530 currently have it hosted at debanked.com slash p2p forum. 158 00:09:05.590 --> 00:09:08.860 p2p forum. Yeah. And it stands for peer to peer because it was 159 00:09:08.860 --> 00:09:12.310 originally they're like the peer to peer lending firm. So in just 160 00:09:12.340 --> 00:09:17.440 rebooting it up by set it as p2p forum, so, debanked.com/p2p 161 00:09:17.440 --> 00:09:20.590 forum, you go on there. We've already restored 16,000 posts 162 00:09:20.680 --> 00:09:23.470 that were on the forum. So we've restored a significant number 163 00:09:23.500 --> 00:09:25.690 amount of the content that was on that site. We're talking 164 00:09:25.690 --> 00:09:29.440 about 10 years worth of conversation, right? I think one 165 00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:33.640 of the kind of unspoken pieces of value in this industry. 166 00:09:33.640 --> 00:09:38.980 People talk about, you know, how do people learn, how do people 167 00:09:38.980 --> 00:09:42.370 get to where where they are in finance, a lot of them a lot of 168 00:09:42.370 --> 00:09:45.130 them end up on message boards. I know this very well, because 169 00:09:45.430 --> 00:09:48.490 deBanked has a forum and we have DailyFunder. DailyFunder has 170 00:09:48.520 --> 00:09:52.240 150,000 posts on it. Yeah. Right? Gets 10s of 1000s of 171 00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:57.400 visitors every month. And so people in the industry, they use 172 00:09:57.400 --> 00:10:00.310 these particular message boards, even if they're not posting to 173 00:10:00.310 --> 00:10:02.710 see what other people are talking about, it's a very 174 00:10:02.710 --> 00:10:05.710 valuable place to exchange information and I find that it's 175 00:10:05.710 --> 00:10:08.740 also helpful to see what people were talking about historically. 176 00:10:08.800 --> 00:10:11.260 Yeah. Like where people were at before. So even if you're not in 177 00:10:11.290 --> 00:10:13.750 there, and now in the conversation, you can kind of 178 00:10:13.750 --> 00:10:16.150 see like, well, what were people saying a year ago? Yeah. Right. 179 00:10:16.150 --> 00:10:18.910 You can find an old thread. Yeah. An old post. Is this 180 00:10:18.910 --> 00:10:20.980 company legit? What was your experience? 181 00:10:21.520 --> 00:10:23.470 Johny Fernandez: It's like it's a rabbit hole you can go in and 182 00:10:23.470 --> 00:10:26.440 then just like. Yeah. It's a goldmine at that point. 183 00:10:26.450 --> 00:10:29.240 Sean Murray: Yeah. And I think it's super valuable. And I also 184 00:10:29.240 --> 00:10:32.930 think about the preservation of discussion as kind of being an 185 00:10:32.930 --> 00:10:36.050 important part of alternative finance, the fact that it should 186 00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:40.040 it should be preserved, even if there's no sort of monetary 187 00:10:40.070 --> 00:10:43.220 benefit to get from it that because it's so useful, it will 188 00:10:43.220 --> 00:10:46.550 be useful for people in the future, think about it, we see a 189 00:10:46.550 --> 00:10:50.990 lot of things go full circle. Yeah. And if people don't 190 00:10:50.990 --> 00:10:54.230 remember the the past, you know, they, they can repeat all the 191 00:10:54.230 --> 00:10:57.710 same mistakes. And I've kind of seen that already with peer to 192 00:10:57.710 --> 00:11:00.290 peer lending. You know, this, the peer to peer lending 193 00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:03.680 phenomenon really started, like, we're talking like 10 years ago, 194 00:11:04.160 --> 00:11:08.690 and it it kind of completed the entire lifecycle and that now 195 00:11:08.690 --> 00:11:11.300 it's all bank lending. Again, all the peer to peer lenders 196 00:11:11.300 --> 00:11:13.790 became, essentially became banks. And if they're not banks 197 00:11:13.790 --> 00:11:17.030 themselves, they're working with banks. And so it's a very much 198 00:11:17.030 --> 00:11:20.360 just bank lending at the end of the day. And then you have the 199 00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:23.840 next generation of entrepreneurs come into the business. And 200 00:11:24.140 --> 00:11:26.840 their bright idea is, hey, how come everything is done by 201 00:11:26.840 --> 00:11:30.170 banks, we should have people help people. And their idea is 202 00:11:30.170 --> 00:11:34.220 essentially peer to peer lending, which already came and 203 00:11:34.220 --> 00:11:37.040 went, and then they're like, recognizing, recognizing that 204 00:11:37.040 --> 00:11:39.770 it's not part of the ecosystem. And they're like, what a unique 205 00:11:39.770 --> 00:11:44.090 novel idea? And I'm like, well, we already had this. Yeah. And 206 00:11:44.090 --> 00:11:46.580 there's, you know, there's a lot of regulation involved now. And 207 00:11:46.700 --> 00:11:49.370 it's not really the Wild West, and some of your initial 208 00:11:49.370 --> 00:11:52.610 thoughts about how to do this are have been well considered 209 00:11:52.640 --> 00:11:55.220 and played out, you know what I mean? Like, there's a history of 210 00:11:55.220 --> 00:11:59.210 like how these things work. And I think a forum is a great way 211 00:11:59.660 --> 00:12:02.960 to communicate that to the world. And, you know, in terms 212 00:12:02.960 --> 00:12:06.020 of everyone's thought process, even the conversation about how 213 00:12:06.020 --> 00:12:09.740 certain accounts performed, and people discussing the analysis 214 00:12:09.740 --> 00:12:14.360 of performance, because one area of particular interest for 215 00:12:14.360 --> 00:12:17.390 companies like Lending Club and Prosper, they were kind of the 216 00:12:17.390 --> 00:12:20.060 cornerstone of the peer to peer lending market is they will give 217 00:12:20.060 --> 00:12:22.310 you, they will give you a figure that will tell you what your 218 00:12:22.310 --> 00:12:25.670 performance was. And then people in the forums would say, I'm not 219 00:12:25.670 --> 00:12:29.180 sure that's actually an accurate number, or here's how you should 220 00:12:29.180 --> 00:12:32.060 be really looking at it. And I just felt like that information 221 00:12:32.060 --> 00:12:34.970 was so helpful to me. And I think it will be continued to 222 00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:38.210 continue to be helpful to people down the line, even if they're 223 00:12:38.210 --> 00:12:41.090 not actively engaged in the current conversation. So. 224 00:12:41.090 --> 00:12:43.315 Johny Fernandez: No, I think it's great. And I think I think 225 00:12:43.367 --> 00:12:46.604 like you said, there's a lot of new people coming in. And they 226 00:12:46.656 --> 00:12:49.737 need to know that kind of the full circle moment, because I 227 00:12:49.789 --> 00:12:52.922 feel like a lot of kids, a lot of people in general, whether 228 00:12:52.974 --> 00:12:55.690 like specifically like millennials, you know, people 229 00:12:55.742 --> 00:12:58.979 that are under the age of 40, they have these great ideas, and 230 00:12:59.031 --> 00:13:02.321 they think they're the only ones that have it, but it's already 231 00:13:02.373 --> 00:13:04.932 been done. So I think it's great, I think it will 232 00:13:04.984 --> 00:13:08.117 definitely bring a wealth of knowledge, and not only benefit 233 00:13:08.169 --> 00:13:11.511 us, but also will interact with a whole different crowd too. So. 234 00:13:11.563 --> 00:13:12.660 Yeah. It'll be great. 235 00:13:12.690 --> 00:13:14.700 Sean Murray: Yeah, you know, we've obviously written about 236 00:13:14.700 --> 00:13:18.150 peer to peer lending quite a bit over over the years. But we've 237 00:13:18.150 --> 00:13:21.960 never really had an active peer to peer lending community on our 238 00:13:21.960 --> 00:13:25.920 site. Yeah. I think this will be a good addition to have. Yeah. 239 00:13:26.610 --> 00:13:29.370 We're gonna start reaching out and announcing it to the world, 240 00:13:29.400 --> 00:13:32.370 I suppose on social media and on on our website in the coming 241 00:13:32.400 --> 00:13:34.980 week or two weeks, we're still restoring parts of the site. So 242 00:13:34.980 --> 00:13:37.020 it's, if you go there, and you're like, hey, there's some 243 00:13:37.020 --> 00:13:40.440 parts that look a little broken. Yeah. You know, we're using some 244 00:13:40.470 --> 00:13:43.890 unique methods of recovery, to even to even put this thing back 245 00:13:43.890 --> 00:13:46.770 together. But we will get there. And we will tell people, 246 00:13:46.770 --> 00:13:51.030 obviously, we do want people who were avid users, or even just 247 00:13:51.420 --> 00:13:55.950 lurkers of the forum to come back to it. Yeah. And, you know, 248 00:13:55.950 --> 00:13:59.370 I don't think that we acquired the, the, essentially, like the 249 00:13:59.370 --> 00:14:02.460 name the trademark rights to it, Lend Academy will still be Lend 250 00:14:02.460 --> 00:14:06.330 Academy. And they'll still be part of LendIt, we specifically 251 00:14:06.360 --> 00:14:10.560 only required the forum, the message board with within their 252 00:14:10.590 --> 00:14:13.650 little ecosystem there. And so that's all that we've acquired 253 00:14:13.650 --> 00:14:16.320 in this. And right now, if you want to see what what where our 254 00:14:16.320 --> 00:14:19.710 progress is, if your posts are saved, if you are a member of it 255 00:14:20.010 --> 00:14:24.600 debanked.com/p2pforum right now, if you see the forum menu at the 256 00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:27.480 top there's actually a little drop down now that we added that 257 00:14:27.480 --> 00:14:30.390 you can actually select it from there if you can't find it. And 258 00:14:30.390 --> 00:14:32.880 if you want to restore access to your account, you will have to 259 00:14:32.880 --> 00:14:36.600 email us at info@debanked.com. We can put your email address 260 00:14:36.600 --> 00:14:38.280 and set you up with a new password on that that 261 00:14:38.280 --> 00:14:40.620 information is gone. Unfortunately, that's that's the 262 00:14:40.620 --> 00:14:43.590 kind of information that would have been stored in the database 263 00:14:43.590 --> 00:14:48.180 itself and encrypted. Yeah. And when, like encrypted data is 264 00:14:48.180 --> 00:14:52.650 lost on in a database on a server. That's really, really 265 00:14:52.650 --> 00:14:56.550 hard to get back. And so what we're gonna ask people to do is 266 00:14:56.640 --> 00:15:00.360 email us to just essentially reestablish your information 267 00:15:00.360 --> 00:15:02.910 with us and we'll just hook your account right back up. You know, 268 00:15:02.910 --> 00:15:05.550 the accounts are still there. Yeah. And the posts are still 269 00:15:05.550 --> 00:15:08.610 attached to them. We just need to add a password to email back 270 00:15:08.610 --> 00:15:09.300 to the accounts. 271 00:15:09.330 --> 00:15:12.078 Johny Fernandez: Yeah. And then for other information regarding 272 00:15:12.138 --> 00:15:15.723 stories, TV series that we've done episodes, etc. You can go 273 00:15:15.783 --> 00:15:19.309 on debanked.com. And you can also check on our social media 274 00:15:19.369 --> 00:15:23.073 platforms.

That's gonna be super 277 00:15:30.364 --> 00:15:33.710 exciting. And yeah, so Broker Fair updates we have right 278 00:15:33.770 --> 00:15:37.415 there, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn. So that's pretty much 279 00:15:37.475 --> 00:15:38.730 does it for us today. 280 00:15:40.440 --> 00:15:42.000 Sean Murray: 4000 days. 281 00:15:42.209 --> 00:15:43.965 Johny Fernandez: That's exciting. I'm excited. That's 282 00:15:44.013 --> 00:15:44.843 super cool. 4001. 283 00:15:44.843 --> 00:15:46.679 Sean Murray: 4001 days. 284 00:15:46.679 --> 00:15:48.919 Johny Fernandez: So from all of us here, I'm Johny Fernandez. 285 00:15:48.970 --> 00:15:50.040 Thanks for tuning in. 286 00:15:50.910 --> 00:15:51.810 Sean Murray: See you next time. 287 00:15:52.140 --> 00:15:53.220 Johny Fernandez: Who are you? 288 00:15:53.220 --> 00:15:53.910 Sean Murray: I'm Sean Murray.
