Quotes:
Joe: “If you believe that digital property rights are going to be a thing…You’re going to see this media arm build-out of Yuga Labs for all these different ways… they’ll increase the value of what they own… Is this crazy or is this the start of the next generation of the internet? ” (18:46)
Robert: “The activities themselves are not valuable, it’s who’s participating in these activities that are considered valuable.” (21:35)
Joe: “Time hired someone full-time to run their Web3 business. They recruited and have things going and you’re going to have Stella do the same thing… You’re going to see Web3 evangelist and experts that are going to be built around these new business models.” (38:08)
Joe: “We’re almost a year into a crypto bare market or down trend. There’s a lot of innovation going on right now and I think you’re going to see another year of this and then we’re going to see some exciting things happen as all of this experimentation comes to fruition.” (45:18)
Joe: “Morning Brew is following the media content model to perfection. Where they spent multiple years building their base and now they’re in full diversification mode [by running an event].” (49:45)
Robert: “I think you’re going to start to see a lot of these travel bans ease and budgets come back for travel as people start moving back into the office...business travel is never going back to the way it was.” (53:25)
