Today is Saturday, April 10th, and we're talking about the NFT frenzy.

NFTs are non-fungible tokens, and it seems they've become the hottest thing in the crypto world lately.

Some NFTs have been auctioned off for millions of dollars,

like Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey's first ever tweet that sold for $2.9 million,

or a piece of digital artwork that sold for a record $69 million.

And we're seeing mainstream companies, organizations, and celebrities getting in on the action.

From the NBA's NFT version of trading cards,

to actor Ashton Kutcher's Venture Fund hosting a pitching contest for NFT-related startups

with judges like Snoop Dogg and Mark Cuban.

So what are NFTs?

How are they used?

And are they just a fad?

Or do they have a real future?

We're getting answers today from one of the top voices in crypto.

His name is Nathaniel Wittemore, but he's better known as NLW.

He's an independent strategy and communications consultant for leading crypto companies

and the host of The Breakdown, the fastest-growing podcast in crypto.
