Summary
Zeneca_33 is an NFT influencer, thought leader, and community member (whatever your preferred term is). After playing poker professionally, Zeneca fell down the NFT rabbit hole in early 2021 and has quickly amassed a huge following. His takes are often sobering and always even-keeled, which is incredibly valuable in this emotional and chaotic market.
We knew Zeneca had to be one of the first guests on the show. His wisdom and knowledge are reality checks for any type of market, and we go through his approach to the space, how he picks projects, and his own project - ZenAcademy.

| 0:00.0 | Hello! Welcome to another episode of Overpriced JPEGs. I'm Carly Riley. And today on |
| 0:12.8 | the show, we have Zeneca 33. The NFT influencer, that's known, I should say, as Zeneca 33 online. |
| 0:19.6 | Zeneca is fantastic. He was one of the first people that I reached out to for an interview. |
| 0:23.3 | I've followed him for a while. He's just a wealth of information and wisdom when it comes |
| 0:27.4 | to NFTs and this space in general. I think he's a really good person for beginners in particular |
| 0:33.2 | to turn to. But I also think if you've been in this space for a while, he's just a great person |
| 0:38.2 | for those reminders that we all need to hear sometimes. Those like truisms that we can forget |
| 0:44.0 | when we get too deep down the NFT rabbit hole. So he's delivering a bunch of those in today's |
| 0:48.4 | episodes. He's going to talk about what he looks for in an NFT project. He's also going to tell |
| 0:53.3 | us what he doesn't care about when it comes to an NFT project. And some of those might surprise |
| 0:57.8 | you because he doesn't care about things that I think sometimes we're told we're supposed to care |
| 1:02.7 | about. And we're also going to break down some specific projects like art blocks. If you've |
| 1:08.0 | been wanting to understand art blocks better, Zeneca breaks it down for us. He also recently launched |
| 1:13.1 | his own NFT project. So at the time that he and I recorded this, the project hadn't launched yet, |
| 1:19.2 | subsequently now it has launched. So you can go check that out. I will put a link to it here. |
| 1:24.0 | Anyways, enjoy the show. Enjoy Zeneca. I so enjoyed this conversation. But before we get right |
| 1:28.8 | into it, here's a word from our sponsors. Everyone is talking about the metaverse these days. And |
| 1:33.5 | we're all still trying to figure out what it actually is because everyone is looking for how to get |
| 1:38.1 | exposure to it. That is why a metaverse index fund is so important because in such a young market, |
| 1:42.7 | an index can give you broad exposure to all the various players who are building out all these |
| 1:47.6 | digital worlds that will ultimately become the metaverse. And that's why you should check out |
| 1:51.5 | the metaverse index from the index co-op. The metaverse index gives you simple, easy, and safe |
