Welcome to my weekly newsletter on non-fungible tokens and adjacent assets.
With liquidity drying up and trading volume hitting new lows for the year, this might seem like an odd time to start writing about NFTs. But I feel like a lot of the end-of-days sentiment around NFTs is unwarranted. The space received too much hype and has too many talented teams building products for it to just fade into a footnote of the post-covid liquidity boom.
In the same way DeFi emerged out of the ICO mania of 2017, my guess is the NFT boom of 2020/21 will mature into something that will come back big during the next cycle. But, to be clear, I’m a lowly JPG enthusiast who knows little about markets and finance, so maybe don’t listen to me.
Before I became involved with crypto, I was doing research at the intersection of web and mobile usability, gaming and digital health.
