What It's About
Today's listener shares her personal experience with selling NFTs.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1680
Here is a tip for learning about a new technology - do it in small chunks. If you hear this and don’t understand it, just keep it in the back of your mind … then the next time you hear about the topic, another part of it will make sense. This is how I learned about blockchain technology and cryptocurrency, among other things. Keep this in mind as you hear today’s episode, because it’s about NFTs! WFT is an NFT? It’s a non-fungible token, also known as digital art that’s for sale to the highest bidder. You might have heard of how wild these markets are, but how can an artist actually participate and benefit from them? Rather than give you a listener question, I’m going to give you a listener answer. This comes from Doris Wai, featured on Ep. 795. Doris is an artist in Toronto who has actually sold NFTs! Let’s hear from her, and I’ll explain a couple more things at the end. Listen to today's episode to learn more...SEE ALSO:
