From the Consensus stage, we explore the rise of meme coins and the financialization of cultural ideas through blockchain technology.

In this episode, we feature a panel from Consensus moderated by Camilla McFarland with artist Rhett Mankind, marketer Liz Hagelthorn, talent representative Chris Jacquemin, and investor Derek Edwards to discuss the emergence of meme coins, the tokenization of cultural concepts and the potential impact of this trend on art, celebrity and the monetization of ideas. This episode was recorded live at Consensus 2024 in Austin, TX.
