Replay of the call below:
While NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) have been a thing for awhile, they hit the collective crypto conscious in November, 2017, with the introduction of CryptoKitties, a game in which players can buy, sell, trade, and breed digital cats. The uniqueness of each CryptoKitty made them “collectible”.
But collectibles aren’t limited to just digital felines. First, it’ll be game-based collectibles: skins, items, kitties. Eventually, as people gain trust in the system, NFTs will advance to storing digital proxies of real-world assets, like tickets, or art, on blockchains.
The potential for paradigm-shifting capabilities is immense as real-world assets can now be controlled by smart contracts, while decentralized exchanges make sure NFTs are always liquid and tradeable.
This call features three industry experts, each with a unique perspective on NFTs, to discuss the complex narratives that drive the NFT marketplace today. We’ll have lots of time for questions from the audience after the panelists’ remarks.
