30: 69 Million Dollar Man BEEPLE

Today’s guest is the reason so many new artists entered the NFT space. Since May 1, 2007 he has created one piece of artwork every single day in his now famous ongoing series called Everydays. In 2020 he minted a handful of these Everydays as NFTs and saw immediate success with many of his OG 1/1s selling for for over $100,000 when very few were watching or paying attention to this space. The success of his first couple drops got the attention of Christie’s Auction House and resulted in their first collaboration with an NFT artist to celebrate 5,000 consecutive Everydays. On March 11 of this year, the now famous auction ended with a winning bid of over 69 million dollars and garnered mainstream attention that was extremely positive for the space. A now legend in the NFT community, it is my absolute pleasure to share the stage with BEEPLE aka Mike Winkelmann!
