Do you know much about NFTs? Or does the blockchain space make you think of Elon Musk and an exclusive tech community that feels far out of reach? 

Regardless of your personal affinity,  NFTs will only become more relevant to our modern economy. And they’ll only become more relevant for creators looking to build community and earn a living. But the types of people you meet in the NFT space and the organizations that grow out of these platforms may surprise you. 

More than just a Twitter trend or an elusive tech fraternity, NFTs can expand your creative horizons beyond what’s been possible over the last few decades. In this episode, Charli and NFT enthusiast Waldo Broodrÿk discuss doing NFTs right as a creator and the surprising opportunities that lay ahead for creators who succeed. 

“The beauty of NFTs is that we’re building communities. As we build communities we’re building connections with other people that have different affinities, different skills, different connections that they can then say, ‘oh what if we did this?’ The space to dream that big hasn’t really been around.” ~ @waldobroodryk

Main takeaways 

  • [11:47] When it comes to NFTs, invest in companies, people, and movements that you believe in and always do your research. 
  • [12:36] NFTs aren’t just a project you produce once and forget about. It’s more valuable when you’re iterating because a community of people will want to stick around and watch your platform evolve. 
  • [23:00] While the energy it takes to produce NFT systems isn’t great for the environment, the space is evolving to be more eco-friendly. 
  • [26:28] NFTs have led to a resurgence in the value of art. Artists are finally getting paid for their work rather than just living off of ‘exposure.’ 
  • [28:30] To be successful as a creator in the NFT space, build your community and get to know others in the space. See what others are creating, create utility around your NFT, and build an experience.
