Episode notes
Virtual Real Estate and NFTs
- Virtual real estate platforms like Decentraland and Sandbox allow users to buy and sell virtual land as NFTs.
- Scott Galloway believes NFTs have more staying power than most cryptocurrencies due to their scarcity, similar to physical art.
Scarcity as a Signal of Value
- Scarcity signals value, driving purchases of luxury items like Ferraris or McLarens.
- This stems from a primal desire to display affluence, increasing one's perceived mate value.
Investing in the Metaverse
- Diversify investments across multiple metaverses.
- Treat it like a VC portfolio, expecting some failures but hoping winners offset losses.
