The second Jerry the Turtle (JYAI) community event took place on Saturday, 16 August 2025, bringing together holders, moderators, influencers, and a top-three whale to recap market performance, outline listings progress, share LA billboard plans, and compare technical setups. Here’s a structured summary you can scan at a glance.

Market snapshot

Before diving into strategy and sentiment, the call opened with a quick look at performance and market cap as reported during the session.

• Reported performance at the time: YTD +13,887%, 90D +222%, 30D +240%, 7D +51%, 1H +4.41%.
• Community-estimated market cap hovered $16–17M during the session; a new holders milestone was noted but not tallied live.

Community & speakers

The conversation emphasized community cohesion, dev reliability, and consistent creator coverage that’s kept Jerry visible through chop and rallies alike.

• Host (Duchess): Framed the “family” dynamic; praised the dev’s delivery.
• Alexander (top-3 holder): Early entrant (<$300k MC) with $40k+ in buys; says he helped bring $600–700k of inflows via his network and promotes OTC exits to avoid chart damage.
• Gossipator (influencer): Six+ months of near-daily videos; bullish on listings cadence, whale rotation, and broader influencer interest.
• Malachi (TA): Walked through ETH strength and bullish JERRY structures (details below).
• Jurassic (mod): Gave a listings tour and explained why region-by-region access matters.

Listings & liquidity

Distribution remains a core pillar of the Jerry playbook: more order books, more time-zone coverage, and steadier discovery.

• Recent/active venues discussed: Pionex (SEA/China/Taiwan), CoinBX (India tier-1), IndoEx (Indonesia), Niza.io (EE/Russia), Coinstore (SEA, incoming), Hotcoin (China/APAC), plus many smaller CEXs.
• Overall footprint: 25–30+ exchanges and ~19 trading pairs; some smaller listings aren’t yet on the website but “every book adds up.”
• Potential/upcoming mentioned: DigiFinex, ProBit, ChangeNOW, SuperX, VOOX (coverage across SEA, Korea, EU, Africa).
• Tier-1 progress: Dev has paid fees for a U.S.-compliant tier-1 and is in talks with 3 of the Top-10 CMC exchanges; timelines are exchange-controlled.
• Futures/perps: Community expects several perps venues; watch Telegram for pair activations.

LA billboard & IRL push

Jerry is stepping off the screen and into the city—aimed at compounding attention beyond crypto circles.

• Two LA billboards paid; one installation slated this week in Tarzana, with a second targeting Calabasas.
• Professional drone + on-site videography to document installs; possible pop-up gathering under the board.
• Mural plan: Talks with street artist Ladie 1 (~$50k projects) for a two-story downtown mural, filmed from sketch to seal.
• Replicate locally: Holder in North Carolina exploring boards; typical costs $3.5k–$10k+ depending on city/format.

Technicals (Malachi)

Macro meets micro: ETH strength sets the stage, while Jerry’s chart shows familiar bullish structures.

• ETH vs BTC: ETH broke its downtrend and is holding strong support around $4,300; a new ETH ATH typically ignites alt season.
• JERRY/ETH pair: Repeating a prior fractal; last breakout did ~+260% vs ETH. Current measured move ~+81% vs ETH (with upside potential).
• Pattern/indicators: Inverted H&S breakout with neckline retest; RSI > 60 and price above 21-EMA on daily — an overall bullish setup.

Security & custody

With more holders and listings, the risk surface widens. The AMA doubled down on self-custody best practices.

• “Not your keys, not your crypto.” Move long-term bags to cold storage (many use Tangem 3-card sets) with redundant, off-site backups.
• Protect seed phrases (fire/water-proof storage) and beware dusting/scam addresses.

Community engagement

Grassroots amplification remains a daily discipline—raids, ratings, and creative posts extend reach without ad spend.

• Raiding on X: Use the Telegram raid bot; if three raids are active, queue with /next; creative, original posts outperform templates.
• Content crossover:
  • Vision Poet’s adult-animation Trasterpiece Theatre will hide Jerry Easter eggs for 5 weeks with $100 JERRY prizes per week (keep YouTube comments subtle to avoid crypto-promo flags).
  • Kid + 18+ Jerry series: Dev is producing two YouTube series (in-house scripts, music, animation) promoted via non-crypto influencers. First look by end of September (target).

Q&A highlights

The open floor touched IP use, listings funding, derivatives, and roadmap rumors.

• Creative/IP: Broad latitude; artwork posted in the artwork channel is free to reuse. Brand guardrails are being drafted.
• Listings funding: No known shortfall, per mods.
• Futures venues: Interest high; watch Telegram for perps go-lives.
• Netflix rumor: Unconfirmed; roadmap will be re-checked.

Housekeeping

One place to follow along—and chip in if you want it to stay clean and independent.

• Jerry News (independent, donation-funded) is live, curating announcements, listings, roadmap progress, and community initiatives.

The bottom line

Distribution, delivery, and documentation were the day’s themes. With global listings stacking, LA street presence about to roll, bullish technicals, and a community that raids, builds, and self-secures, Jerry (JYAI) continues to set itself up for the next leg—whenever the market decides to light the fuse.
