People have been asking me about my investment thesis towards NFTs and why I believe they will only continue to grow in prominence.

Crypto is better money.

DeFi is better financial services.

NFTs are a neccesary evolution of digital asset ownership and management.
2/

We live in an age where the time spent by humanity online is growing exponentially.

Physical lives are becoming digital lives and with that increasing time allocation, digital assets will continue to grow in value. Image
3/

We live in an era where people are comfortable with holding and assigning value to digital assets and collectibles... even when they dont *truly* own them.

Imagine what would happen when digital goods are empowered and released out of their current walled gardens... Image
4/

We have never existed in an era where the average person has access to at least 3 screens: TV, PC/ Laptop and Mobile phones.

I personally have 6 around me right now and many of you are closer to my screen "count".

That is all digital "mantle space" for digital content.
5/

Traditional real estate is expensive.

While your grandfather could purchase a home decades ago with 2 years of annual salary, that will barely get your foot in the door today.

The choice to go digital is an economic choice as well. Image
6/6

With all these trends pointing towards a natural migration to digital, along with the necessity for a technology to affirm the provenance and scarcity of digital assets, while providing true ownership and management...

The NFT future is so bright,I gotta wear shades.

What are NFTs?

NFTs are digital stuff that you truly own and manage. (@DeFi_Dad @AndrewSteinwold )

I can buy a skin on Fortnite but I don't truly own it as it is tied to the platform and I can't give it to my grandmother nor sell it at Walmart.

I can with NFTs.

How do NFTs work?

By creating a NFT, you are creating a token with immutable proof on the blockchain ledger that records the origin, time and scarcity of that token.

The token points to a file that could be a picture or a video, which is what your audiences see.

Convince me otherwise:

The Flippening has already happened.

ETH gave birth to so many amazing projects, both on the Ethereum network and through new chains, that the true value of ETH is already spread across all of its "children".
2/

Investing in ETH really is investing in the infrastructure, but the true value will not be realized in ETH, but rather in the successful indvidual projects built on and inspired by the Ethereum network.
3/3

Investment funds are always limited so ETH will not see the same amount of centralized buying behavior that we see in BTC (If you want to invest in Bitcoin, there is only BTC).

The path to wealth with ETH is investing in the projects that best exemplify its use case.

Thoughts on new individual and institutional entrants to NFTland:

There are a couple of ways that one can start investing in NFTs today:

1, Directly buy NFTs
2, Invest capital in NFT projects
3, Invest in NFT related tokens
4, Invest in NFT Collections
2/

Invest in NFTs:

NFTs are non-fungible, meaning that one NFT is not going to be the same as the next, even in art editions (early numbers = more value).

This is not like investing in BTC, ETH or some other DeFi Token.

There will be tastemakers and there will be lossmakers.
3/

Invest in NFT Projects:

There are thousands of projects claiming to be the next big game or the next big platform.

Gems are 1 in a 1,000.

If I pre-seeded every single "good idea", i'd have alot of good ideas and a zero ETH account balance today.

Use case is Paramount.
