To kick off Season 9, we are speaking with P1A, a contemporary artist, educator, and founder based in Istanbul, about all things web3 and art. We reflect on the NFT craze of 2021, and P1A shares why even though the hype has died down, NFTs are in fact not dead and on the contrary, art NFTs have a long way to grow and develop. We also talk about the work she's doing at her studio in Istanbul called Yazane, where she's helping educate other local artists about web3 and the impact that blockchain can have on their careers as artists. She not only uses the space as a gathering place and educational center but also as a gallery for local artists to be able to exhibit their works without paying the exorbitant fees they would to traditional galleries.P1A was nominated by David Phelps and voted onto the podcast by David Phelps, Richie Bonilla, Forage, and Triumph. COLLECT THIS EPISODESUBSCRIBE TO REHASH PODCAST CLUB (RPC) FOLLOW REHASH:TwitterWarpcast (Farcaster)TikTokInstagramNewsletterRehash Podcast Club (RPC)Diana Chen (Host) IMPORTANT LINKS:P1A's WebsiteTwitterWarpcast (Farcaster)Yazane Studio TIMESTAMPS0:00 Intro2:22 P1A's background6:02 When NFTs started to make sense for P1A7:47 What fueled all the hype around NFTs in 2021?10:22 Are NFTs dead in 202414:57 Path to success for a traditional artist18:33 How web3 benefits artists20:29 Will art galleries become obsolete?23:20 How web3 affects traditional galleries28:47 How Yazane Studio in Istanbul is structured34:10 P1A's dream tool in web338:30 What P1A's working on currently41:18 Can You Not43:34 Follow P1A DISCLAIMER: The information in this video is the opinion of the speaker(s) only and is for informational purposes only.

Mainstream media outlets have once again declared that nonfungible tokens (NFTs) are “finally totally worthless,” citing the results of a DappGambl study on the “evolving landscape” of NFTs.The DappGambl study found that as many as 95% of NFTs (owned by more than 23 million people) have no value at all. This is a significant finding, and it raises questions about the long-term viability of the NFT market.However, Animoca Brands CEO Yat Siu has dismissed the study's findings as "FUD," or fear, uncertainty, and doubt. Siu has argued that the DappGambl study is based on a flawed methodology and that it does not take into account the full value of NFTs.Siu has also pointed to the fact that the NFT market is still in its early stages of development. He has argued that it is too early to say whether or not NFTs have long-term value.So, who is right? Are NFTs worthless, or are they just misunderstood?The truth is, it is probably too early to say. The NFT market is still very new and volatile. It is possible that the market will eventually mature and that NFTs will become more valuable. However, it is also possible that the market will crash and that NFTs will become worthless.Only time will tell the true value of NFTs.In the meantime, it is important to be aware of the risks involved in investing in NFTs. NFTs are a speculative investment, and there is a chance that you could lose all of your money.If you are considering investing in NFTs, it is important to do your own research and understand the risks involved. You should only invest money that you can afford to lose.Here are some additional thoughts on the matter:The DappGambl study only looked at the market value of NFTs. It did not take into account the non-market value of NFTs, such as their cultural value or their potential for future use cases.The NFT market is still very immature and there is a lot of hype and speculation involved. This means that it is easy for prices to be inflated and for investors to make losses.There are a number of scams and rug pulls in the NFT space. It is important to be aware of these risks and to only invest in projects that you have carefully researched.Overall, it is important to be cautious when investing in NFTs. It is a speculative investment with a lot of risks involved. However, there is also the potential for high rewards.

Is the "green rush" over? Are NFTs still a thing? Was it wrong of me to put my life savings into AMC stock? Michael Johnson is the CEO of Metrc, a company that makes supply chain software for the cannabis industry. If talking about cannabis bothers you, I suggest you skip this episode… This is one of those businesses that makes sense when you learn about it, but seems so out of left field for an uneducated person such as myself. Today we discuss the cannabis industry boom and maturation of the “green rush” as what was once an emerging field becomes more commonplace. Metrc has over 250,000 users for their “track and trace” software program, and they're trying to bring safety and oversight to the wild west of the cannabis space.  ➡️ https://www.metrc.com/ ➡️ Highlights: https://rosspalmer.com/michael-johnson  ➡️ Follow me on Instagram: @therosspalmer  ➡️ Subscribe on YouTube: @therosspalmer

Are NFTs a full-on scam? In 2022, thousands of NFTs for the Coachella music festival were frozen leaving users without any art in their NFTs. Why? The actual assets were held on servers that belonged to FTX. This is a problem with NFTs as a whole and not just ones connected to Solana and FTX. It's a bug in the system while we bridge the gap between Web2 and Web3. Is there a solution? Or is this the achilles heel for NFTs? And I wonder if Filecoin has anything to say about it.

This past April, the FBI disclosed an astonishing fact about the breach of the blockchain behind the popular “play to earn” game Axie Infinity a few weeks earlier. The FBI said the hackers who stole $615 million dollars in cryptocurrency were, in fact, from the group “Lazarus” which has direct ties to the government of North Korea. To add insult to injury, the brazen attack took place just weeks after President Joe Biden had released an Executive Order, authorizing a whole-of federal government approach to derisking digital assets. It was the equivalent of North Korea thumbing its nose at the U.S. Government. The incident revealed the incredible challenges confronting President Joe Biden and his national security and economic teams as they attempt to craft sweeping policies to protect consumers without hindering financial innovation, at the same time earning the trust of and cooperation from the crypto communities to help police the space, without violating the libertarian ethos undergirding blockchain, cryptocurrency, and digital assets. With all these challenges swirling about, I am delighted to share my recent wide-ranging conversation on crypto regulation and compliance with a key White House official who has been thinking about this and working on these complex issues for years. Carole House is the former Director for Cybersecurity and Secure Digital Innovation for the National Security Council, The White House. She joined the NSC on detail from the U.S. Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), where she led cybersecurity, virtual currency, and emerging technology policy efforts as a Senior Cyber and Emerging Technology Policy Officer. House has just returned back to FinCEN after her White House tour of duty.

On this episode of IMPACT, we had a conversation with entrepreneurial guru, Lee Richter. Lee has been named in the top 100 business leaders for 7 years, as well as the Top 100 fastest growing businesses in the Bay Area. She is a part of the Forbes Business Council and is now making her imprint in the digital space known as non-fungible tokens (NFTs).   Lee helps us unpack the very complex idea of NFTs and what actually inspired her to cement herself in that arena. Being a successful entrepreneur since the 90s, one can assume that Lee knows a thing or two (or a thousand) about trends and finances, so you won't want to miss the very valuable nuggets of information she has imbedded throughout this episode.   NFTs and crypto are the inevitable present and future. What NFTs are doing to our modern society is very important work because they work as a way to demonopolize the financial institutions that control all aspects of revenue in this country and the rest of the world, until now. We have knowledge, we have power, we have technology, and we must learn to work with it instead of against it. Tune in and find out more about this form of currency that's changing the way we view art, community, and wealth! KEY TAKEAWAYS:  [6:29] Lee's background and how she got started in the world of NFTs and crypto [7:55] What exactly are NFTs [17:58] Example of a practical form of a NFT [21:11] Are NFTs strictly digital art or physical art as well [32:47] What are smart contracts and digital wallets [40:44] What to look for when starting to invest in NFTs HOW TO CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST:  https://goasklee.com/ https://nftswithlee.com NFTs and Beyond Podcast MEMORABLE QUOTES: 5 reasons to NFT: “#1 is authenticity, #2 is access, and #3, you get to also do things like fractional ownership.” ~Lee Richter (Listen to the episode for # 4 and 5)   “So as a marketer, I'm like wow, this is really special. Not only do you bring your favorite people with you, but those who come with you are actually engaged and like being part of the community.” ~Lee Richter   “UC San Diego just launched that every single student who graduates will not only be getting their diploma through NFT but also their transcripts via NFT so that they are in control of it and it's validated that it's true.” ~Lee Richter   “Everyone puts their own value to it. For them, it was worth it to get the picture they wanted and the experience. Now she owns that picture. And to her, it was meaningful to have that golden egg more so than the extra thousand dollars.” ~Lee Richter   “Now what happens beautifully and why artists love this so much is that in the NFT transaction, they can build themselves in forever.” ~Lee Richter   “They can build it in so 300 years from now, their heirs are still getting a percentage of that art being sold, whether it's music or physical art, or digital art.” ~Lee Richter   “There's many many ways that people can take the digital and turn it physical or take the physical and turn it digital. So it's interactive based on the smart contract, what you get for it.” ~Lee Richter   “A digital wallet is where you convert your currency… to the currency to trade inside the NFT marketplace. Generally when you start, it's most likely going to be etherium (ETH).”  ~Lee Richter   “None of us had the same opportunity with Amazon. But we do have the opportunity here to jump in and see what can we do and what can you make the best for you and your brands and your life.” ~Lee Richter “You can build whatever you want in the smart contract. But it's determined between the buyer and the seller. Where the seller pays for it, they take it with those terms.” ~Lee Richter
