The World of Women NFT collection is one of the hottest and most unique NFT collections on the market. Have you heard of them before, NFT community? I’m sure you have.

The NFT collection endorsed by the likes of Gary Vaynerchuk, Farokh, and many more players in the NFT space. But why? Why is this NFT collection making the noise it's making?

It’s a genuine NFT collection that’s focused on giving back to the NFT community and innovating through utility. That is exactly what you want to hear out of NFT artists or creators.

My guests for the week were Miss Yam Karkai and Mr. Raphaël Malavieille. Miss Yam is the creator and artist behind the World of Women NFT collection. Mr. Raph is her partner and the co-creator of the World of Women NFTs. Mr. Raph has a technical background and is constantly in contact with the community. As a relationship, they built one of the best NFT collections in the crypto space.

It is also important to note WHY Miss Yam and Mr. Raph started the World of Women NFT collection. Miss Yam saw that the NFT industry was turning into an industry dominated by men. She decided it was best and innovative to start a collection that emphasizes diversity and inclusion. This is an NFT collection that can serve as a pillar of inspiration for women to make their mark in whatever industry they’re from… (feel free to look through the World of Women NFTs below and buy one if you want to join their community and receive their benefits.).

Throughout the interview, we discussed: Miss Yam’s unique art style, how the World of Women NFT collection started, Miss Yam and Mr. Raph’s feelings throughout this journey, their vision for this collection, and their journey as a couple delving into the NFT community.

Anime NFTs? You just knew it was coming. I mean let’s be real… NFTs were made for anime just as much as they were made for gaming.  

The Animetas are here to prove that NFT theory is right by combining the two worlds. They are releasing an anime NFT collection of over 10,000 unique pixelated anime characters. Once you buy an Animeta, you own the commercial rights to that piece of art. You can create storylines with it, include it in your podcast, make it your alter ego, etc.  

Well, what makes the Animetas different from other NFT collections besides their unique art and genre? There are a plethora of sub NFT collections under the Animetas that will have different utilities.   

There will be countless airdrops to Animeta owners that will include weapons and other assets that we can use in their upcoming game, which is described in the episode. This game is going to be different from other Metaverse games currently out.  

The Animetas are also emphasizing fan art and community storylines. They want the community to build this collection out in the future. They want their token holders to create storylines, shows, comics, etc. from these characters. They are creating a maze of use cases with all the NFTs in their collection. This is going to be one of the biggest NFT drops of the year. This NFT drop will be significant for the crypto community’s progress with culture. My special guest for the week was the co-founder of the Animetas, CyberH.

As crypto matures towards full adoption, DeFi will begin to serve as the foundational layer of finance in our society. DeFi offers users financial services and opportunities that traditional finance was never able to provide. Bancor is one of the pioneers and leaders of the DeFi charge and that’s exactly why I wanted to conduct this interview.  

My guests for the week were Mark Richardson and Nate Hindman. Mr. Mark is a data scientist/researcher for Bancor, who has a deep understanding of science, finance, and technology. Mr. Nate is the growth lead at Bancor and he did a very great job explaining how to use Bancor during the interview.  

Throughout the interview, we discussed: what is Bancor and what separates it from other AMM’s, what is single-sided liquidity provision, what is impermanent loss, when and what L2’s will Bancor deploy on, why they chose those L2’s, the future of Bancor, a tutorial on how to use Bancor, and more!

This week, we're going to take a little bit of a break from NFTs. Instead, we're going to focus on the first biotech DAO to be created, VitaDAO. Vitalik Buterin even assisted in the creation of VitaDAO, as their thesis is beyond beneficial for humanity. They want to extend the human lifespan as far as they can. Their goal is to commercialize and fund anti-aging therapies and make humans' consciousnesses last longer.  

My guest for the week is a member from VitaDAO and a man who was featured on Forbes, 30 Under 30 Romania, Laurence Ion. Mr. Laurence has an extensive knowledge about longevity and the cognitive process of humans. He wants to extend lifespan beyond what it is now, because he thinks humans don't have to die so early.  

Throughout the episode Mr. Laurence and I discussed: Mr. Laurence's background and life beliefs, what VitaDAO is and what they're trying to do, the science behind their thesis, human longevity, and more!

Enjoy the episode my friends!

Right now when you check your phone, you’re most likely going to see a text from Billy asking to get drinks later, a notification from your bank, and an email. That’s great. We’d all like to see these notifications.  

But what if we could be PAID to receive these notifications…?  

My guest for the week was the Ethereum Push Notifications Service Project creator, Mr. Harsh Rajat. For Ethereum to be considered the next “internet,” there needs to be a reliable form of communication between the blockchain and its user base. That’s what the Ethereum Push Notifications Service Project does. Except it adds a little flavor to the mix.  

Web 3.0 is the epitome of the saying, “power to the people.” It creates a variety of avenues for users to be paid and receiving an Ethereum push notification is just another avenue.  

Throughout the episode we talked about the technical infrastructure of the Ethereum Push Notifications Service Project, the thesis behind the protocol, how we get paid by the Ethereum Push Notifications Service Project, how pay gets distributed, Mr. Harsh’s journey in the push notification service industry, Mr. Harsh’s vision for the Ethereum Push Notification Service Project, and more! I really enjoyed this interview; Mr. Harsh is very nice, humble, and informed. I think you guys are going to learn a lot about the communication layer for the Ethereum blockchain.  

The Ethereum Push Notification Service Project are the creators behind the Push token. The Push token is the token tied to the protocol on the open market. You can buy the Push token on Bilaxy, MEXC, and 1inch Exchange.

You've been hearing me talk about NFTs all year on this channel, but this week, I'm going to cover a game-changer concept in the NFT industry. Charging your NFTs with ERC-20 tokens and ERC-721 tokens.  

What does this do? Your NFTs are now a basket that can hold other ERC-721 tokens or ERC-20 tokens.  

Why would anyone want their NFT to hold ERC-20 tokens? Because they can give you PASSIVE INCOME! You can "charge" up your NFT to earn you yield over time. This suddenly changes the perspective of value on the open market.  

My guest for the week was business lead and co-founder of the Charged Particles protocol, Ben Lakoff. Charged Particles is the protocol behind this revolutionary NFT technology.  

Throughout the episode, we talked about: 

-the technological infrastructure behind Charged Particles 

-do these NFTs actually give you a passive income? 

-why would someone use NFTs for passive income, as opposed to AAVE? 

-does the value of the NFT change on the open market with ERC-20 and ERC-721 tokens engrained into the NFT? 

-examples of what you can do with this technology -how Charged Particles started 

-why AAVE's atokens are the primary interest bearing asset for Charged Particles tech

The NFT industry is slowly starting to grow into other niches and diverge from just the art sector. The Metakey NFT project is an example of an NFT project that provides various other use cases. It is a project that provides different use cases to its holder in different virtual worlds and with different NFT and crypto influencers.  

Joining me this week is the founder of the Metakey and one of the biggest virtual land buyers in the world, Matty the DCL Blogger. Matty has recorded a podcast with Gary V and has been a mover and pioneer for the NFT industry since it started. Matty is invested in all the virtual worlds and is focused on creating a sense of interoperability amongst them.  

Throughout the episode, we talked about the Metakey NFT project and what use cases it provides, how it operates and evolves, the four main virtual worlds and the differences between them, why you should buy virtual real estate, and more!  Thank you my friends. I hope you enjoy the episode.
