Vivian Hsu, Director ETFs and Alternatives, and Meghan Chen, Digital Assets Strategist, share a discussion on what’s behind the rise of NFTs (non-fungible tokens), including how they work and what they could mean for the investment world. Whether it’s digital art, videos, or even GIFs being sold for millions of dollars, NFTs have captured the world’s attention. Among other topics, Vivian shares that there were over $20B of NFT sales in 2021. Meghan looks at the history of NFTs, and also how musicians specifically are utilizing this new technology to provide exclusive offerings to their fans.
