Brian O’Hagan - Sorare: The Future Of Fantasy Sports - Zima Red ep 48

My guest today is Brian O’Hagan, who leads growth at the football (or soccer for us Americans) collectible game Sorare. I had a blast learning all about Brians background and his entrance into the cryptosphere but what was really exciting was learning all about Sorare. If you are in the NFT ecosystem you know Sorare, they have been dominating the top sales charts on OpenSea for many months now and show no signs of slowing down. I admit that I know next to nothing about football so having Brian explain how Sorare works in great detail was perfect. After our conversation I became convinced that Sorare has changed the fantasy sports and collectibles arena for good and I know Sorare is going to be huge. Please enjoy my conversation with Brian. https://twitter.com/bruhagan https://twitter.com/SorareHQ

Metakovan - The Metaverse Renaissance - Zima Red ep 47

My guest today is Metakovan. Metakovan is the largest NFT collector in the world and recently spent $2.2m dollars on acquiring twenty 1/1 Beeple art pieces. All of his NFT-related endeavors are through an entity called Metapurse which is half NFT fund and half production company. We hit it all in our conversation, his background, his thesis, his goals, we could have talked for hours and hours. I loved how Metakovan discusses his acquisition of the Beeple pieces and his future plans with something called B20 which is going to change the way people experience art. One thing I want people to know is how down to earth Metakovan is. I had the pleasure of meeting Metakovan in person at NFT NYC and we bonded over our shared love of the metaverse and of course, late night Taco Bell. I can honestly say he is one of the kindest people I have ever met. I am really looking forward to the future with Metakovan because he is working hard to inspire many and build incredible things for the entire metaverse. Please enjoy my conversation with Metakovan.
