Why The NFT Community Should be More Hon...

Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

Today's episode is a snippet of a conversation I have regularly with Matt Kalish on the Props and Drops podcast. We're bringing it to you here because I feel like theres a ton of value you can gain from it. Right now, and as NYC NFT has come to an end its clear to me that a large majority of the NFT community is not being honest about why they buy and sell NFTs. They often tell us that it's about the "art" or decentralization or contributing to a bigger cause when it's really just about the money. Which is OKAY, and a perfectly fine place to be in, I just feel we need to have a more honest conversation.

Enjoy! Let me know what you thought.
