Podcasts about non-fungible

Former U.S. president Donald Trump holds up to $500,000 in an Ethereum wallet, a recently released filing with the U.S. Office of Government Ethics revealed. Trump, who is running for the Oval Office again in 2024, has been a long standing crypto skeptic. However, he released a collection of non-fungible token (NFT) cards last year featuring images of him, which sold out in hours. On this episode, we're diving into his crypto portfolio as well as Melania Trumps NFT Strategy.

The Rise of NFTs: How Blockchain Technology is Changing the Way We Value Art and MediaNFTs, or non-fungible tokens, are unique digital assets that are bought and sold on blockchain networks. Unlike other cryptocurrencies, each NFT is unique and cannot be exchanged for an equal item or value. NFTs have gained popularity in recent years due to their ability to represent ownership of digital art, music, and other forms of media. They have also been used in the gaming industry to represent in-game items and rewards.KURIOUS - FOR ALL THINGS STRANGE

After previewing a 'big announcement' for Thursday, President Trump delivers a bizarre sales pitch for NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) of artwork depicting himself as various forms of American superheroes. Denver mayor Michael Hancock declares a state of emergency over 600 migrants entering the city over the last six months. Is this a straight money grab from the federal government? Or have virtue-signaling Democrats just been caught off-guard by the real impact of their 'sanctuary' policies?

gmThis one is a special one for me. Farokh was one of the first people I found in Clubhouse in early 2021 and have consistently looked up to him since. Farokh is a serial entrepreneur who has been building for over 10 years before he found the web3 space. He is the co-founder of Rug Radio, which is a decentralized media company that harnesses web3 tools to empower both creators and listeners. He also is a participant in his own eco-system and is a co-host of the gm show every morning where he, OSF, and Mando cover the latest in NFTs, and macro-economic conditions, and host people & teams that are building the future of this space. You're in for a real treat, this conversation is a good one.Main points:Background + intro into web3The start of the gm showA detailed breakdown of Rug Radio & problems they're solvingHow he handles being an iconic figure in web3What Farokh likes to collectWhat he's looking for in the next iteration of web3Boonafide Links:Twitter: https://twitter.com/BoonaETHWebsite: https://www.boonafide.comFarokh & Rug Radio links:Twitter:  https://twitter.com/farokhRug Radio LInks: https://linktr.ee/rugradioThe gm show:  https://linktr.ee/gmnftsIntro Music:Sean Mundy: https://twitter.com/seanmundyphotoIntro Artwork:"We BleU a little" by https://twitter.com/sleepy_stefSupport the show

gm everybody,Y'all are in for a TREAT this week. I had the pleasure of having a conversation with the wildly talented Zaid. His work is vibrant, colorful, and psychedelic, and it truly stands alone.  Zaid has been creating art long before web3 came about, and it was exciting to unpack the motives, attitudes, and beliefs that drive him to create the work he does.Some of the main points we discuss:Collecting physical vs. digital artEntry & transition into the web3 spaceThe difference between scene & style piecesSome Friends AlphaSuper Rare, both the good and badBeing inspired by others' work vs. tearing it downBoonafide Links:Website: https://www.boonafide.comTwitter: https://twitter.com/BoonaETHZaid Links:Website: https://www.ruffhousearts.com/Twitter:  https://twitter.com/JruffhouseSuper Rare: https://superrare.com/zaidkirdseyIntro Music:Sean Mundy: https://twitter.com/seanmundyphotoIntro background:Samantha Cavet: https://twitter.com/samanthacavetSupport the show

gm,I am stoked to introduce this week's guest, Mae.  She is a 3D artist hailing from Australia who creates the comfiest landscapes of worlds that don't exist, but everyone wishes they did. Mae has been creating all of her life as a creative outlet and meditation tool. Her 3D journey began by creating and selling in-game assets for the sims; you can already see how the world of web3 and NFTs made complete sense. After a few years, she combined her love for art with the tools of 3D to make the comfiest fictional landscapes on the internet today. Some of the main topics we chat through:-Experience surrounding financial markets-An artists supply-Strategy and focus during the bear-What collectible NFT we'd both want to own, and why-We round it off with Mae's physical art collectionI'm so excited for you to hear this one!Boonafide Socials:Website: https://www.boonafide.comTwitter: https://twitter.com/BoonaETHMae Socials:Website: https://www.eniosta.com/linksTwitter: https://twitter.com/enixstaSupport the show

Brayden has been a full time photographer for years, and was one of the early adopters of Instagram, along with Dave Krugman, Eric Reubens, and many more.We dove right in with his history in the corporate world, and the journey to learning what his calling in life was. Brayden is clearly not cut out for the corporate world, but a lot of the skills he learned there have proven incredibly valuable to him as a full time photographer.He is goes into the importance of understanding professional skills such as creating decks and writing good emails to navigate brand deals. Next, we chat about his entry into the NFT space, and he gets a LITTLE fired up about his and Chelsea's genesis piece on Foundation that, according to Deeze, is “aging like fine wine.”After we get fired up, a tangent brought us to the topic of artists having more of a say in defining the artists of our generation, the frustration with collectors spending exorbitant amounts of eth on underdeveloped art while good artists are going unnoticed.This tied in perfectly with the toxic positivity in the space and the WAGMI vibes and how those who consistently show up and contribute will be the ones who make it.We finish off the conversation with my predictions for the next bull run, culture clashes between the collectible and art community, and the rise of art sales, even in a bear.This is a very non-linear conversation but jam-packed with value for every type of participant in the web3 ecosystem.Enjoy

 gmAyla's work captivated me from day one, starting with her piece “Allegorical Figure of Day and Night,” a piece in which the light changes with the sun's cycle.We start right off the bat by talking about short-term vs. long-term time horizons. Next, we chat about the tough balance of telling your own story while uplifting others and what it means to be selfish.Next, I explore the elusive wave in all of her photos, how this came to be, and her fascination with nudity, and we expand a lot on the topic of her being her own muse.Lastly, we talk about the relationships she's built with her collectors and how she wants to be remembered in the fine art world.Sit back, throw some headphones in, and get lost in the wave

gm,I first found Chelsea on Twitter when she dropped her "Dirty Girl" collection on Foundation; as time passed, I found myself in a Twitter Space with her, right after she started teasing her newest drop, "Bad News."We dive into her personal story of starting out as a traditional artist, her transition to photography, working on wall street and so much more! We chat through the importance of onboarding, and current censorship issues with nude art on Twitter. One of my favorite parts is when we go deep down the rabbit hole of how math plays a huge role in photography.Lastly, we do a lil alpha and dive straight into her newest unreleased collection, "Bad News," which will allow holders to create their own story with alternate endings. I throw my two cents in there on some inspiration from how campaigns in video games are consumed as well! This is something insanely ambitious, which you know is my cup of tea.Enjoy

A person in web3 that needs no introduction, but he'll get one anyway because I love him, I give you, John Knopf.Artist, Community builder, and just an overall GOOD GUY. John was one of the first people I looked up to in web3, as he had (and still does) this ridiculously contagious energy that radiated (and still does) far and wide. We start from the beginning of his childhood in what he describes as his comfort of chaos.  Before being a photographer full-time, he worked at a car dealership, which is where he truly found his love for photography, his exit to becoming a full-time artist is one for the books!We then dive into his thought process, motivation, and determination to succeed, at any cost, and a detailed description of what that actually looked like for him. We then journey into him discovering the web3 space, and the role he played in creating a movement of photography being valued in the NFT space.Some special moments are the ones he shared around the difficult discussions he and Cath Simard had when it came to breaking out, and their wild journey ever since. Our discussion on how he prices his work is something unique that I never heard before and is one that many will replay over and over for years to come.This episode is a must not miss. John is a big-brain visionary, builder, and relentless hustler; we are truly blessed to have him in this space.Boonafide Socials:Twitter: https://twitter.com/BoonaETHPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/BoonafidexpWebsite: https://www.boonafide.comJohn's site & works:Linktree: https://www.jknopf.com/linktreeTwitter: https://twitter.com/JohnKnopfPhotosSupport the show

We like the art, we like the collage art even more after this recording! I first ran into Erin last year in a Twitter space and was immediately inspired by her courage to hop on a stage and share her art in front of a large audience that hadn't yet seen collage art before.From there, I've been watching her continue to hone in on her craft, become a live podcast host on Twitter Spaces, and get accepted to the Super Rare platform. Most recently, she won Super Rare's "Space Race", which will allow her to curate her own Super Rare Collage art gallery! What is unique about this accomplishment, is that it is 100% community voted by using Super Rare's $Rare token. A small example of how decentralized governance can lead to unique opportunities for everyone.This episode starts off with my human moment by calling her Ana, but I promise it gets better. We chat through her experience creating art both before and during web3, how she vibes with her collectors, her journey as a teacher, and how her mindset has been during the current market conditions. We even wrap it up with an example of a public disagreement with art she viewed as offensive, and how it was resolved.The pieces we discussed live are down below, and in order starting at 42m Definitely recommend you follow along :)All of my love: https://superrare.com/0xb97b5628a41f380706731499a76a042c74a3e20f/all-of-my-love-2Centerpiece: https://superrare.com/0xb97b5628a41f380706731499a76a042c74a3e20f/centrepiece-3Honey Hibiscus: https://superrare.com/0xb97b5628a41f380706731499a76a042c74a3e20f/honey-hibiscus-1Boonafide Socials:Twitter: https://twitter.com/BoonaETHPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/BoonafidexpWebsite: https://www.boonafide.comErin Socials & work: Linktree: https://www.erinmcgean.com/linktreeSuperRare: https://superrare.com/lifewithartOpenSea: https://opensea.io/collection/hot-lipsSupport the show

Happy early Memorial Day to those that celebrate!Dave is the founder of ALLSHIPS.CO, which is a creative hub that's dedicated to rising all tides through podcasts, interviews, articles, resources, and much more. He is on multiple platforms including Super Rare, Nifty Gateway, and Open Sea.We dive deep into his "Drive" collection on OpenSea, which is 111 photos of cars from across the world, which include some fun gamification and rewards that harness the power of the blockchain. Furthermore, we do a lil thesis conversing about the current market, find the similarities of the early day Instagram, and dive into mental models on how to think about this technology 10, 20, and 40 years down the road.I am so excited for you to hear this one, enjoy

Today, I bring you this podcast's first poet, I welcome Ana Maria Caballero. I first came across her work last year, when she was reading one of her poems in a Clubhouse room, and I've been following along ever since!Hailing from Bogota Colombia, Ana has won thirteen awards, including Colombia's Jose Manuel Argano National Poetry Prize in 2014! She has also collaborated with major brands such as Playboy and has been featured in numerous NFT galleries.Ana's mission is simple, Poetry = Art.Ana is taking action towards this mission by collaborating with digital artists to add unique imagery to her poets to deepen the story and create new experiences. She is also the co-founder of a website called The verse verse, which is a curated platform to onboard traditional poets into the web3 space.We discuss everything from her journey as a poet in web3, why poetry means so much to her, and what her biggest goals are with her poetry.Enjoy

Jeremy Cowart has spent the past 15 years as a photographer, specializing in celebrity portraiture and humanitarian photography projects around the world. Before becoming a photographer, he spent time as both an abstract painter and a graphic designer. All of these mediums recently came together when Jeremy released his first NFT series called "Block Queens", which is where I discovered him. This is an art that can only be digital, as it harnesses augmented reality that enables you to immerse yourself inside of the image and see all of the layers within the work just by dragging your mouse.  This is where the true partnership of art and code came together to create a masterpiece.We discuss everything from his background as a web2 artist, his inspiration behind his Queens, his vision for being an artist within web3, and his Super Rare Genesis Drop, Lightograph 1: In Bloom, which allows you to control the lights in an image with your mouse.Follow along with me at minute 45 with the Super Rare link belowGrateful to have you here, listening to me doing what I love.Boonafide Socials:Twitter: https://twitter.com/BoonaETHPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/BoonafidexpWebsite: https://www.boonafide.comJeremy Cowart:Website: https://cowart.io/hello Twitter: https://twitter.com/jeremycowart Block Queens: https://opensea.io/collection/block-queens-by-jeremy-cowart Lightograph 1: In Bloom https://superrare.com/0x48a513e9ece989b7b16c00a1af0c37fd8280df4f/lightograph-i:-in-bloom-1 Non-Refungible Network:Website: https://nonrefungible.tech/Twitter: https://twitter.com/Non_RefungibleSupport the show

Nach einigen Wochen des "bear-markets" zeigen Daten, dass sich der NFT Markt ein wenig erholt. Zumindest finanziell. Doch mit welchen Trends? Kann es einfach immer so weiter gehen, dass ein "Collectible" Projekt nach dem nächsten auf den Markt kommt, einige wenige "Flipper" viel Geld damit verdienen und die restlichen Investoren auf den "Bags" sitzen bleiben? Bei einem so rassanten Market müssten doch bereits neue Trends den Weg ebnen, oder? Ein Blick in die "NFT Kultur" sollte uns da einen Schritt schlauer machen. Und eine Sache lässt sich schnell erkennen: Unternehmen und NFT-Brands beginnen mit KYC Prozessen. Wieso?! - Statt Shownotes, gibt es einen Discord: https://discord.gg/everyNFT Und hier findest du mich auf Twitter: https://twitter.com/cceemm_xyz Cover: Das "Scam" Projekt: APE COIN LOGO.

What are NFTs?NFT stands for non-fungible token.A more descriptive name would have been “a 100% unique, non-replaceable digital asset recorded and authenticated on computer databases,” but that's too long.So, let's stick with “non-fungible token” and break it down.Token: A token is a digital asset (e.g., image, gif, video, a digital object in a video game, etc.) that lives on the blockchain.Non-fungible: Each token (asset) is non-fungible, which is fancy talk for saying it's 100% unique. For example, physical art is non-fungible. Da Vinci's “Mona Lisa” is non-fungible. Michelangelo's “David” is non-fungible. Van Gough's “Starry Night” is non-fungible. If you're an art collector, you could trade one masterpiece for another—but you couldn't replicate the Mona Lisa or David. There is only one of each and will always only be one. You could have a picture of the Mona Lisa, but it's not the actual Mona Lisa.

This week, we dive deep into the ocean with Nadine Bauer. She is a biologist by trade, but her true passion lies with a  camera in her hands. She is one of the few underwater photographers I've seen in the NFT space, so naturally, I had to have her on.Her life is anything but ordinary, originally from Germany, Nadine has traveled the world, including some hot spots in Southern America. Her story is full of so many "random" occurrences that pushed her to the position she's in today, including her introduction into NFTs.We chat about her journey into NFTs, as well as her underwater work, including my personal favorite "Angelita", which is her most expensive piece on Foundation. This is where her excitement really came to life in this episode :).She's not just passionate about underwater photography. She shoots amazing landscape photos as well and is currently traveling in a van across the country in the United States. The photos from this collection will be listed on Foundation in her collection titled "Tales of the Road".FURTHERMORE, she just added to her "Between Landscapes" collection to include her best work while adventuring Mexico, available on OpenSea.Boonafide Socials:Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BoonafidexpWebsite: https://www.boonafide.comTwitter: https://twitter.com/BoonaETHNadine Socials:Twitter: https://twitter.com/cinnadineBetween Landscapes: https://opensea.io/collection/between-landscapesFoundation: https://foundation.app/@cinnadineSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/Boonafidexp)

Jack is the founder and designer of Visualize Value, a $1m/yr brand that educated people on how to build and sell things on the internet.Jack was one of the first people I gravitated toward in web3 with his unique, simple artwork around web3 concepts. I came into contact with him through his art that sent direct aid to Afghanistan when they were in the middle of their crisis. I was then onboarded into the head-spinning meme verse that only he can create.It's really hard to actually conceptualize and put into words how this dude's art impacts me. Everything from the position of his words, to the type of font he uses, the shapes, the underlying message, the meme, just hit in a way that quite frankly nobody else does.This rabbit hole goes DEEP, so get ready. We chat everything from Balancing his current brand, with his art, the definition of web3, why he's so in love with Creative Commons License, as well as re-thinking the meme.This episode could have gone for 3 hours, easily, but we decided to keep it at 1.5 hours so your head wouldn't explode.References:Frozen assets: https://twitter.com/jackbutcher/status/1439910425219538951Punk6529 thread: https://twitter.com/punk6529/status/1448399827054833668The Sovereign Individual- https://www.amazon.com/Sovereign-Individual-Mastering-Transition:Information/dp/0684832720/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1642828001&sr=1-1Boonafide Socials:Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BoonafidexpWebsite: https://www.boonafide.comTwitter: https://twitter.com/BoonaETHJack Socials:Link Tree: https://links.visualizevalue.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/jackbutcherVisualize Value: https://visualizevalue.com/Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/Boonafidexp)

I hope everyone had an amazing week, and are ready for another EXCITING episode :)This week, I had a chat with Kai Brown, Founder/CEO of Artists, Makers, and Repairs. This episode is unique by nature, yet, so is web3, so get ready. Kai has been making NFTs long before the technology existed. His business (Kai) creates custom, chain-stitched jackets for his clients.  The jackets are all made to order, and there is not a duplicate of any of his creations, and he's been doing so for 6 years.Today, he has designed jackets for Jay-Z, Art Basel, BMW Culture Group, and is now he's taken the plunge into web3 and is bridging the gap between digital and reality. His primary web3 services are for the Doodles community, bridging the digital ownership of web3 to the physical realityWe chat about his upbringing, his journey into being an entrepreneur, all the way to the present, and his web3 experience.What are you waiting for...

This will be a different flavor of the podcast, as traditionally we have chatted to artists, fund managers, this week, I interview the co-founder of a working web3 game built on top of Solana called Mini Royale: Nations.This isn't Alex's first crack at making games, in fact, he's been doing it his whole life, check out his LinkedIn. Alex's philosophy is simple, build a FUN game, and add an open economy on top of it. The current issue with web3 games is that they focus so much energy on economics, tokens, and financial incentives. If you don't have a fun game, none of the web3 innovations really matter.We chat about the previous games that he and his partner have developed, the current state of web3, and the atrocious launch video that Ubisoft announced. The last half of the episode, we chat all about his new title that is currently available to play right now. Links:Game: miniroyale.ioTwitter: https://twitter.com/apaley13 Boonafide Socials:Website: https://www.boonafide.comTwitter: https://twitter.com/boonaethSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/Boonafidexp)

Matt is the founder of Esports One, an esports fantasy platform. Matt also founded Esportspedia and Leaguepedia. The one commonality you may find here, is that all of these platforms aimed to solve the problem of data in esports, and how it's used. We chat about how he and the team are using this data to enter into the world of web3 in a thoughtful way that gives true value to the community. Towards the end, we also chat about the recent events of Ubisoft entering into web3, and what the "right" way to enter into this community is.They haven't been too public about any of their roadmaps, think of this as an exclusive first look into the inner workings of how they're putting the esports industry on their back into the metaverse.**Nothing here should be considered financial advice, and I was not paid in any currency to have Matt on**Boonafide Socials:Website: https://www.boonafide.comTwitter: https://twitter.com/boonaethEsports One Socials:Twitter: https://twitter.com/EsportsOneWebsite: https://www.esportsone.comPersonal: https://twitter.com/MatthewGunninSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/Boonafidexp)

This week's episode is one that I have been ITCHING to release for quite some time now! Cath is a landscape photographer in the NFT space that has some of the most beautiful work that I've ever seen. Her insane journey, the use of blue, and her natural talent of telling the story of her work just drew me in right from the start.We discuss everything from her journey before NFTs, her transition into this wild space, the challenges, and the emotions she had to overcome to get to where she's at today. We discuss her controversial Free Hawaii photo, which was the first NFT photograph to be minted with a CCO (Creative Commons License). This photo was the catalyst for a much larger conversation around IP rights that I feel will shape the future in a positive light for artists everywhere.Towards the end, we do a little Cath appreciation and gaze at her photos as she tells the story behind a few.Again... I am so excited for you to hear this one, it's jam-packed with value, vibes, blue, and of course, gm.Cath Links:inktr.ee/cathsimardBoonafide Socials:TwitterWebsiteSupport the show (https://www.patreon.com/Boonafidexp)

In this episode John and the gang get into Non-fungible tokens (NFT) to explain what these are and if they are sound investments

A transaction in NFT is a transaction in some sort of digital ownership. Or as the Bloomberg columnist Matt Levine put it, “digital ostentation.” As the new owner of the NFT of a song or a jpeg, you don't have exclusionary access to the 0's and the 1's that make up the digital object. But there is still scarcity ascribed to the thing you're buying, because the seller promises to only do this transaction a small number of times.So as a buyer, you may feel good about a special bond you have now formed with the seller - in general an artist. Or you can signal to the world that you have deep enough pockets to have made such a transaction.In our debate today, on one side, we have a London School of Economics professor who is both a staunch no-coiner and an NFT bear. On the other, we have a founding partner of a NFT dedicated fund that started in 2019. Our cohost is from a renowned crypto fund, an NFT advocate and a collector herself. So this will be interesting.If you would like to debate or want to nominate someone, please DM me at @blockdebate on Twitter.Please note that nothing in our podcast should be construed as financial advice.Listen-along transcript: https://share.descript.com/view/NnA9YEyInkESource of select items discussed in the debate (and supplemental material):Edmund Schuster: http://edmundschuster.com/Andrew Steinwold's podcast: https://twitter.com/zima_redAndrew Steinwold's NFT & Metaverse newsletter: http://andrewsteinwold.substack.comMaria Shen at Electric Capital: https://www.electriccapital.com/team/maria-shenNBA Topshot: https://nbatopshot.com/Opensea (NFT sale platform): https://opensea.io/Beeple's $69M NFT sale: https://www.theverge.com/2021/3/11/22325054/beeple-christies-nft-sale-cost-everydays-69-millionTwitter thread questioning whether NFT is true un-censorable: https://twitter.com/jonty/status/1372163423446917122Guest bios: Edmund Schuster is an Associate Professor of corporate law at the London School of Economics and Political Science.

In Episode 10 of the Ethereal Podcast, DeFi Dad interviews the CoFounders of Mintbase, Nate Geier and Carolin Wend.Mintbase is an NFT factory for the new virtual economy. One can mint non-fungible tokens (NFTs) using Mintbase, which represent scarce digital goods like artwork. Artists using Mintbase, especially in virtual NFT worlds like Cryptovoxels, can issue traceable, limited edition digital art, as well as other items such as tickets for virtual events. While DeFi has been at the forefront of attention in Ethereum, few understand how much growth NFTs are seeing on Ethereum. For example, SuperRare, a leading digital art marketplace, started in 2020 with $344,000 in platform sales volume which has quadrupled to over $1.6m according to Messari Crypto. In this episode, we discuss how Mintbase empowers creators in new digital and virtual worlds, including arts, gaming, photography, and virtual event tickets, especially since the start of the quarantine.To learn more about Mintbase visit mintbase.io.
