Introduction

There has been a tremendous amount of chatter over the past year about NFTs--how they're a scam, how they'll usher in a new era of democratized web3 for the entire planet, and everything in between. Tonight we're joined by someone with an unusual background who is unusually well-placed to help us get to the bottom of this. Michael Maizels is a former professor of art history who made the somewhat non-traditional pivot into crypto. He is now the head of research at Abra, where he works on subjects like bitcoin mining and climate change and the security vulnerabilities of blockchain bridges.
