Last week, the $Flow token, Dapper Lab's underlying blockchain, surged 40% on the Instagram integration news. A bullish sign for sure. But what do we really know about the token, and what its future holds? And more importantly...how much $Flow are we getting airdropped at the end of this month?
The crypto market can't make up its mind, so we called up one of the best in the biz: Tascha from Tascha Labs, who literally holds a PhD in Macroeconomics and is a well known writer in the crypto space. She shares her insight on the macro, the war, the market, and how this current version of NFTs has zero chance of sticking around.
What drives NFT bull markets? And what will bring on the next one? We've got the co-founder of Dapper Labs, Mack Flavelle, on the show to tell us about how NFTs came about, and how their predecessors were emojis and GIFs. Oh, and he also thinks that Roadmaps are super dumb.
We've heard this before: “fortunes are made in bear markets”. But what exactly does that mean? We bring on The Wolf Of All Streets to tell how he approaches portfolio building in the crypto space, and discuss lessons from recent hardships.
These brands, they are a changin’. With many fortune 100 brands now entered into the web3 arena, what will this seismic shift mean for the average retail consumer, who will now need to navigate the metaverse to find their fave product? We welcome Adam Brotman, former EVP + CDO of Starbucks, and now advisor to many web3 projects, to talk the brands of web3.
In the last month alone, UFC Strike has shipped Burning, Free Moments, Themed-Drops, Champions Club, and setup an incredible booth at International Fight Week. Although this is a bit more of a niche topic than usual for the show, I wanted to dive in because I’ve personally found the speed and execution of UFC Strike to be beyond that of its counterparts in the Dapper ecosystem.
Web3 is changing rapidly, and pretty soon all our favorite shows, books, and songs will be native NFT projects. This renaissance is being led by two industry pioneers - SAFA and Valet Jones from Jenkins The Valet - and they're on to discuss the future they envision for everyone’s favorite story.
Jayne Peressini. Fresh off the end of the NBA season, we welcome her to show to get an inside look at how the NBA Top Shot platform plans to grow and what her first order of business has been at Dapper.
We really thought 2022 would be “the” year for NFTs. Turns out, we were dead wrong. And rather than focus on the doom and gloom of the market, we're looking way further ahead to mass adoption, and what its gonna take to onboard 100,000,000 into non fungibles.
NFL All Day. Candy MLB. NFTU College Hoops. And this week - NBA Top Shot. Burning has finally arrived to the sports NFT world and just in time to combat the woes of oversupply. In this pod, we'll explore the different methods for burning, and their short + long term impacts.
