Summary
Today's episode is an original interview I did with the Co-Founder of Hot Streak Sports Gianni Settino. Gianni’s story is the journey from the early NFTs era to one of the most interesting NFT projects out there. Gianni and I have a really great conversation about our first NFT experiences with Crypto Kitties, the NFT resurrection, discord in 2018 vs today, and why people are not late for NFTs.
Enjoy! Let me know what you thought.

| 0:00.0 | This is the Gary V. Audio Experience. |
| 0:04.0 | VNRNation, how are you? |
| 0:06.0 | If you've been paying attention to me in any shape or form over the last nine months, |
| 0:11.0 | you know how much I am deep into NFT land. |
| 0:15.0 | One of the things that has really caught my attention over the last four to five weeks |
| 0:21.0 | is the thought of, wait a minute, you know, there's 50 to 100 to 200 of these great projects |
| 0:26.0 | coming out a day now, which is causing a supply and demand issue. |
| 0:30.0 | And one of my great fears is that people are day trading and really kind of using NFTs as an investment tool, |
| 0:36.0 | which is great. |
| 0:37.0 | And I love that stuff. |
| 0:38.0 | And I'm a businessman, but I do worry about oversupply versus demand. |

| 1:14.0 | And one particular project really caught my attention and I started doing some real homework as I've gotten more and more into the end of Tland. |

| 1:37.0 | And, you know, unfortunately, and, you know, unfortunately, when you get a platform, it's required a little bit more homework before you, yeah, even though I make 100 trillion videos on Twitter and Instagram. |
| 1:49.0 | And on this podcast saying, please don't buy what I buy, I buy things for different reasons. I'm trying to learn. |
| 1:54.0 | And I'm, you know, I'm, I'm playing a different game plus I've spent years and I mean years on, you know, putting myself into a position to be able to afford to take risk. |
| 2:08.0 | And so even though I say all those things, people kind of jump. And so I start doing more homework than ever and during one of those. |
