Nick Vale - on how to rent, loan or borrow NFTs - and why

Nick Vale – ahead of the NFT pack

Some ideas make sense – once you hear them, like the infamous luggage on wheels and why did no one think of that before 1972. Others require a bit more imagination such as the touch screen and pinching to change the size of images.

Co founder and CEO Nick Vale first came across NFTs in the form of Crypto Kitties. Unlike others who first pooh poohed these loveable digital assets or even those who later saw art with a capital A as the sole preserve of NFTs, that is the provenance feature, Vale saw much more.

Afterwards he worked on Miner Duty, a shooter game using a lot of UGC components, which climbed to the number three best seller position.
