NFT Predictions for 2021

NFTs have become the hot topic for Q1 2021, but is this a natural market evolution or a "flavor of the month"?

Based on observation, here is the market trajectory and a couple of trends that I see for the rest of 2021:

Let's Geddit:
2/6

Digital Art to Mainstream

The auction by @beeple and @ChristiesInc has blown open the doors for mainstream commercialization of digital art.

This will be the first of many auctions to come with digital artists taking the stage.

Digital Art as an investment? Choose wisely.
3/6

Music: Accelerated Blockchain Growth

Equitable music streaming via blockchain through projects such as @AudiusProject.

Music NFT collectibles via infrastructure being built by @OriginProtocol.

#Cryptoart set the path that Music can now blaze through.
4/6

Digital Collectibles to Metaverse Mantle Space

Now that everybody has NFTs one of the biggest questions is how and where to display them.

Projects like @cryptovoxels, @TheSandboxGame and @decentraland provide a true experience for the immersive digital experience. Image
5/6

NFT Value Proliferation to Consolidation

99.99% of NFT projects today will not hold commercial value when mainstream adoption takes place.

0.01% of projects will survive RL challenges like long term collector liquidity and the onslaught of mainstream projects incoming.
6/6

Conclusion

These are still early days, but the ramp up from early to mainstream will be highly accelerated as NFTs, unlike other blockchain use cases, are a natural evolution of digital asset ownership and management.

Find those diamonds and collect for love ❤️🔥⚡️

We are seeing the resilience of social tokens all across the board.

Founders saying "this will not stop me".

Communities coming together and even holding hands across the aisle to move forward together.

This is Community.

This is Resilience.

While this might be still too early, in times of crisis we look for the silver lining.

In Chinese, the word "crisis" is comprised of two characters: "危" (danger) and "机" (opportunity).

In this recent event, we have embraced both and look towards a brighter future:

Membership

The black-swan event that resulted in a artifically low entry point and a signifcant increase in $WHALE holders and @whale_community membership.

Inclusive of non-selling wallets, our Discord at discord.gg/whale is now over 10,600 members and growing. Image
3/6

Market Validation

While we will encounter artificial price supression in the short term due to front-runners in the price dip, we received immense market validatin on $WHALE and the @whale_community.

To all who bought $WHALE, thank you for your trust and your support. Image

The Wealth Management Playbook for NFT Creators

While I am excited to see the amount of growth in NFTs , I also deeply care about the people who are being given a lifetime opportunity to earn it and keep it.

Don't be "that guy" who had it and lost it all.

Debt: Pay it off

Contraty to popular belief, you cannot build a sustainable empire on a rickety house of cards.

The majority of debt sucks and will suck you for all your worth when you're both in and out of the money.

Prioritize paying off debt over all other expenses.
3/8

Rain Day Fund: Have one

Earnings are cyclical in nature and nobody shoots straight to the moon.

Accumulating a rainy day fund that covers all your expenses (rent, food, utilities) for at least 6 months and then expanding it is essential.

And you never touch it. Ever.

Use Case 8: Collect 'em all

Enhance the community experience by using NFTs as a scavenger hunt or epic real world/ metaverse puzzle.

Collect 'em all and receive a grand prize.

NFT puzzle OGs such as @coin_artist and @josiebellini have shown how effecitve this can be.
15/20

Use Case 9: Long term Collector Experiences

Want to incentivize longer term holding of your NFTs?

Empower your NFTs with token embedding protocols such as @DefiNft (Charged Particles) to create a Russian Doll of NFT secrets that unlock over time.
16/20

Use Case 10: Hybrids

Stack the use cases that I have mentioned above to create the ultimate experience for you and your fan base.

The more fun and interactive that you make the experience, the stronger participation, engagement and advocacy you will see.

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.
3/20

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.

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.

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

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
