In the latest episode of Empire, Blockworks’ co-founder Jason Yanowitz and co-host Santiago Roel Santos are joined by Andrew Steinwold Managing Partner at Sfermion & John Crain CEO of SuperRare Labs.

Andrew & John saw the potential of NFTs years before most in 2018, just after Crypto Kitties broke the Ethereum blockchain. We decided to invite them to Empire to discuss the explosive growth in NFTs throughout 2020/21, how the industry has developed since their introduction around 2018 and what is the future for the NFT market.

Plus, listen in to get their thoughts on:

  • Intellectual property laws in the NFT market
  • How 2020 sparked parabolic NFT adoption
  • and so much more!

Check out what they had to say in the video below. 👇
