Welcome back to another exciting episode of NorCal and Shill! In today's episode, our host, NorCal Guy, is joined by a special guest, Shatt. Shatt is an art enthusiast and avid collector in the NFT space. They have some fascinating insights to share about the current state of the art world, their experiences in the NFT market, and their thoughts on the future of digital ownership.

Shatt kicks off the conversation by expressing their desire to see less "coattailing" in the art world. They believe that too many artists follow a trend after one artist achieves success, resulting in a lack of originality. Instead, they advocate for more animated art, specifically GIF art and short films in a Pixar style.

Throughout the episode, Shatt highlights several talented artists who they believe are underexposed in the space. They also discuss the overshadowing of other art forms, such as 3D rendered short pieces, due to the current focus on generative and AI art. They express admiration for a particular artist named offshoot, whose work they find incredible but feel is not receiving the recognition it deserves.

Shatt's journey into the NFT world began when they purchased their first board ape in March 2021. They were introduced to NFTs through a podcast called Bankless, which primarily focused on DeFi. They admit to being unfamiliar with "Crypto Twitter" initially but forged their own path and eventually found themselves diving deeper into the world of NFTs.

As the conversation progresses, Shatt shares their thoughts on digital art becoming more prominent, the democratization of art ownership, and the challenges of navigating the NFT space. They discuss their own collecting preferences, the allure of Tezos, and the value they find in curated art drops.

Join us in this engaging episode as Shatt provides valuable insights into the NFT market, discusses their own collecting journey, and examines the ever-evolving landscape of digital ownership. Stay tuned for an episode filled with thought-provoking discussions and exciting revelations. Let's dive in!
