My journey into NFTs
Written by Allan, COO of Medallion XLN
In March 2020, I found myself in the most unusual situation… well, maybe not that unusual when you realize we were all in the same boat, facing the same uncertainty. During the early stages of the pandemic, I came across a headline that read, “Beeple Sells NFT for $69 Million”. My first thought was…. what the hell is a Beeple? After actually reading the article, I began to connect the dots. At the time, a few tech trends had been jiggling around my frontal cortex like loose change. I had read a few articles about block-chain technology and I had an appreciation for the colorful names coming out of the burgeoning cryptocurrencies world, and now, I needed to grapple with the strange concept called NFTs.
Fast February 2022. I still find myself in this most unusual situation… as we all still do. The difference is that I have educated myself a bit more with these tech trends. I am even the proud owner of a modest stake in crypto currencies through one of those popular exchange platforms. But I still have more questions like, “is Aaron Sorkin going to write a movie that explains to me the origin of Meta?” Please…. pretty please!
Understanding the crypto world is going to be an adventure. I plan to write more entries about my learning journey through this amazing, exciting, and complicated world. I hope you will join me… nay, be my co-pilot… or my navigator… or just ride shotgun. I am looking forward to your engagement, dialogue, friendly debate, and, most importantly… discovery.
Let the journey begin…
