Oh Yes, NFT Paris Recap - It's Here!
Manage episode 443666266 series 3605815
Paris, France: Glistening, shimmering, and pulsating above the city of love, it’s as if the Eiffel Tower, a beacon of twinkling light at night, beckoned the global audience of over 18,000 people dedicated to art, community, and innovation to NFT.Paris, a conference focused on the emerging technology. Ask most normies, and they will likely still scoff at the viability of NFTs. Not this group. The enthusiasm never waned for the visionaries, during the darkest days of the bear market, they were building. Producing new protocols, testing new blockchains, assembling new businesses, networking across continents, bolstering communities, and ever offering to help those less familiar with the potential of NFTs, these stewards remained beyond the initial hype cycle and use cases of 2021.
NFTs Clear Winner:
One of the shining examples of this derivative blockchain technology is its community. Whether you’re aware or not, organizations like CryptoPunks, Bored Ape Yacht Club, and dozens of others fostered genuine connectiveness for people. Initially virtual, the IRL events manifest love, especially this year in Paris. I had the good fortune to attend the Punks Brunch, a “tokengated” event (e.g. TokenProof), utilizing provable assets in digital wallets, soon to be nearly universal for concerts and sporting venues, to grant access. The technical acumen, depth of passion, openness, creativity, of these pixelated PFP (profile picture) owners and their friends at the event was palpable. The diversity of thoughts, borderless kinship, and drive to create abounded at the CryptoPunk Brunch. It alone is a testament to the first use case of NFTs which remains viable.
