Jon Rogers on Yuga Acquisition, $APE, HUGE Disney Updates, & More | Overpriced JPEGs Recap #17

Jon Rogers is back! This time to share more of his hard-hitting insights for our weekly recap. Carly and Jon cover every angle of the Yuga Labs acquisition of Larva Lab’s CryptoPunks & Meebits IP, ApeCoin, huge Disney updates, and so much more!

Yuga Labs is on quite the headline-making hot streak, first with their huge acquisition and now ApeCoin! Jon and Carly dissect what this all means and where we might be headed for the future of the space.

Lastly, we couldn’t bring Jon on and NOT talk about Disney. Bob Iger joining the Genies’ board, new Disney SVP of the Metaverse, what they’re doing wrong and right from Jon’s perspective, and maybe some never before heard alpha?!
