This week Matthew & Rizzle recap NFT.NYC which was overall quite enjoyable. As many others have noted, the vibes were more akin to NFT.NYC circa 2020 than 2021 or 2022 in the sense that events dialed down the glitz and gaudiness (to near zero in many cases) which allowed for the people - artists, creators, builders and collectors - to really be the stars of the show.

The best part of NFT.NYC week was definitely the pilgrimage to the MOCA Church organized by Colborn and the exceptional team he assembled at MOCA along with the Avalanche project. Matthew was lucky enough to be able to attend and shares a little bit of the magic of the weekend event held in Kingston, NY.

Although completely unrelated, the MOCA Church pilgrimage shares a lot of similarities with RIZZLEFEST - Colborn even mentioned that hidden kinship on a recent MOCA Livestream - namely, the intentional gathering of a small group of special souls outside of an urban area deep in nature which rounds out the remainder of the podcast with Rizzle talking about the low-key itinerary he has planned for everyone lucky enough to attend.
