[00:38] – About Jamie Parmenter
- Jamie is the CEO of Real Nifty, which is an NFT agency.
- His love for music and an entrepreneurial bug led to Vinyl Chapters.
- As he started writing articles about music and the potential for NFTs, the BBC website borrowed from his writings to complain the meaning of NFTs to the world.
- This led to NFT startup, RealNifty to onboard him as CEO.
[03:39] – What is web3, and how is it different from web2?
- Web3 has become a capsule term for the vision of a new and better internet, where we have more ownership over what we create, and it is very decentralised.
- Web1 is the first iteration of the internet, which came around in the 1990s. It is kind of like read only internet where people would just view information.
- Web2 is more read and write internet, where people can put their own information and put their own blogs. In web2, the social platforms own your content and use it anyway they want. This is where web3 differs.
- It is about read, write, learn, and own. You can own the information you put on the internet and earn money from it as well.
[05:45] – What are some opportunities and challenges as we transition from a web2 to a web3?
- The main challenge is to create mass adoption. We are still in the early stages.
- A lot of people are still trying to figure out ways to make it more usable for the masses.
- It gives people choice to what they own and what they create.
[09:59] – What are your thoughts on the metaverse?
- Metaverse is part of what Web3 is.
- As it is too early in the stage, it is difficult to define it as its definition is changing over time.
- At this time, it is like a digital or virtual space or community, and it is graphically represented.
[11:36] – What is NFT?
- NFTs are basically digital certificates that show proofs of ownership for any assets attached.
- On a large scale, it is just a mark on the ledger that someone owns something. They can’t be duplicated or copied.
- Each can be proven unique by using blockchain technology, so you can actually prove who owns a certain number of digital assets.
[15:33] – What are you doing at RealNifty?
- We started out by helping creatives by helping them build strategies and drive concept development.
- We have this full package approach of marketing, strategising, web development.
- We concentrate on craters like art, music, fashion while focusing on the physical and digital connection.
