Behind the Team
💥 BEHIND THE TEAMS: INTERLINK 💥
💬 Firstly, who do we have and what are the positions with the project?
• Frank AKA Trucker – CEO
• Ben – Core Team Member
• Mike – Core Team Member
💬 How did the core team meet?
• BEN: I knew Trucker a little previously from shared investments, but we met properly through my time as a mod with Lution and through LutionGaming. Through that Trucker and I started gaming and chatting together, which soon expanded to include Mike aswell.
• FRANK: With Mike and myself it was another case of meeting through shared crypto communities and then becoming friends through gaming aswell. We have all known each other for 2 or 3 years now.
💬 Why did you choose to bring them onboard?
• FRANK: I brought Mike and Ben on board because trust is hard to come by in the crypto space. We’ve been friends outside of crypto for almost three years and have always had a shared vision of creating a project or token. They both have an exceptional eye for detail, especially in the creative process, and we complement each other well. Whether we’re tackling problems, finding solutions, or making decisions, each of us plays our part effectively. I deeply appreciate their contributions and dedication.
💬 What would you advise to somebody entering crypto now?
• MIKE: Honestly, take profits as everyone else advises. Try to avoid emotional trading. Everyone's journey is different, but this resonates with many people. Personally, I've missed out on tens of thousands from not taking profits and also on hundreds of thousands from selling too early. I highly recommend selling for profits but always keeping a "moon bag." Many of the tokens I bought have gone up exponentially after I sold them or after a bear market. When holding meme tokens long term, look for those with active teams and communities.
• FRANK: Start by learning about blockchain and different cryptocurrencies. Invest only what you can afford to lose and thoroughly research projects. Beware of scams, use secure platforms, and diversify your investments. Stay informed and join a community for support. Patience and discipline are essential.
• BEN: Full of clichés here but don’t overinvest or invest emotionally or chase losses. Take small wins but also leave in a little moon bag just in case. Don’t check charts daily or beat yourself up too badly – crypto is impossible to time perfectly. Try to enjoy it and the easiest way to do this is invest smaller amounts and diversify with a chunk of blue chip.
💬 What is your favourite movie?
• MIKE: That one with that guy, with some pew pews and that sexy girl.
• FRANK: Fast n’ Furious (1-7)
• BEN: This is so difficult as I’m a huge film fan and could list so many “better” films, but the film I always recommend because it’s great and not many have seen it is Whiplash. My favourite movie and one I’ve seen the most is probably Guardians of the Galaxy.
💬 What is your favourite food?
• BEN: I’ll stick with being English here and say a nice chicken Sunday roast with all the trimmings.
• FRANK: Fettuccine Alfredo
• MIKE: I am an Italian-Gemini. I like A LOT and I like it A LOT.
​
💬 What do you like to do outside of crypto?
• MIKE: Well, I could write a book about my history and experiences, but I’ll save that for another time. Lately, I love spending time with my kids, hiking, and playing video games. Raised with Nintendo, I'll always play when I can, as it stimulates my mind like nothing else. I hope to get back into sports, considering that was a huge part of my life.
• BEN: I’m a big movie fan but also enjoy gaming and photography and getting outside and walking the pooch.
• FRANK: Well, when I have time because all I seem to do is work lol. Favorite thing to do is go camping. It’s a lifestyle! Me and my family love it, you have a sense of freedom about everything going on around you. Relaxing, fires, adult beverages, and cooking non stop on the black-stone or the smoker. Bonus is when you get to one with NO cell phone service lol.
💬 What is your favourite animal?
• BEN: This is tough, probably dogs but ducks just make me smile haha!
• FRANK: Dogs
• MIKE: Like the other categories, I don't have a favourite but enjoy many!
💬 Finally, give a funny or sweet story from your time in crypto
• FRANK: I’ll start with my “First” time trading crypto. Got into Doge like everyone else and lost a ton lol. As the FOMO and FUD got the best of me. As it we starting to skyrocket I was buying in heavily. Then I would see it start to tank and though “I’m gonna lose everything” so sold then the cycle continues starting to skyrocket and I put everything back in then it tanks so I sold. Each time just eating away at my bag lol. The rush was amazing lol but definitely didn’t make it out on top.
• MIKE: Crypto has been a rollercoaster. From rugs and scams to giving away over $1,000 in prizes, from FUD battles and then learning that FUD isn't always FUD, to making friendships, bonding together, and looking forward to meetups, it makes the experience worthwhile.
• BEN: For me it’s not really a story (or ones where I’ll mention names and how drunk people got haha) but I’ve been on several crypto meet ups in the UK which I really enjoyed. Also meeting these two guys has helped rack up the gaming victories!
