Naturally, Shawn was elated and shared this message to the community on Wednesday: “Thank you to each and every one of the ZOMBIES who supported us. This is your accomplishment, I love you all!”
“Remember, we don’t want to be proud, this is just the beginning for us, the four of us have our sights set on more, we are ready to charge out of Asia!”

According to reports, Shawn and his team of four “spent a lot of time and energy in the planning and execution” of the NFT products.
The doting father-of-two “worked and held meetings in his office all day” for almost half a year while “sacrificing rest” to get ready for the launch, but still insisted on personally sending his three-year-old son Cody to school.
Always a family man
