In this episode, Samaksh and Anirudh try to make sense of the booming NFT trend. They start by breaking down the concept of NFT and how it works. They discuss about how Dapper Labs (https://www.dapperlabs.com/), a consumer applications focused blockchain behemoth has created the biggest digital sports collectibles platform, NBA Top Shot (https://nbatopshot.com/). Then they move on to the liquidity and trading of NFTs, which leads to the second idea for a marketplace for NFTs and Crypto Collectibles, such as OpenSea (https://opensea.io/). Next they break down 2 interesting crypto collectibles and gaming ideas, the first one being CryptoKitties (https://www.cryptokitties.co/), another project by Dapper Labs, and the second one being Zed Run (https://zed.run/). Finally, they brainstorm how creating a blockchain based game engine/OS, such as the one being developed by Mythical Games (https://mythicalgames.com/) and how it can be a better alternative to traditional options like Ethereum.
