The NFT Nick Show

Nick Kneuper is the first guest to come on twice. I'll likely have him on again as well as he is as deep in the weeds of NFT speculating as you can get. From becoming the largest holder of Pickles to being part of the launch of a number of projects, he is on the pulse of the space. In this episode we dove into the details of the current NFT avatar boom and his overall strategy.

Andy has been active in the crypto space in 2017. He quickly went deep down the rabbit hole and got a job which provided the opportunity to learn Solidity.

On Thursday, a social media personality who goes by Taylor.wtf performed an act that enraged members of The Bored Ape Yacht Club: he burnt an ape, casting it into the ether never to be claimed by anybody ever again. This wasn't the first time an NFT had been burned but it is one of the first known times of an individual attempting to profit off that act by selling derivative pieces of the burnt art. In this special edition of the NFT Nick Show I explore what happened and reach out to some of the members of the community. Enjoy!

The OpenLaw team heads up one of the largest NFT investment vehicles, Flamingo DAO. Aaron Wright, David Roon, and Priyanka Desai are at the forefront of DAO based organizational structures.

In this episode we discuss how DAOs work, their limitations, and how Flamingo DAO functions operationally to invest in a wide variety of NFT projects. You can view the full show notes here.

As the NFT market exploded at the beginning of 2021, a glaring issue appeared: digital art is incredibly easy to copy. Who’s going to protect the artists and IP holders? Additionally, what are the intellectual property rights of NFT holders? While there’s less ambiguity day by day, it’s the role of lawyers to help us navigate this space. That’s why I brought on Jacob Martin who has successfully branded him self as The NFT attorney.  You can view the full show notes here.
