Devin Finzer is the Co-founder of OpenSea, the largest marketplace for NFT’s.
The company was founded in 2017 (before NFT’s were cool), and in February of 2021, $95 million in digital merchandise were sold on their marketplace.
Why is that interesting? Because the month before, their sales were $8 million! Folks, NFT’s are here in a big way and in this interview, I’m talking with the guy who recently secured $24M in funding from a16z and is building the ‘Amazon of NFTs’!
If you’ve ever wanted to learn about the future of NFT’s and where to invest in the space, you’ll LOVE this episode.
