If you’ve been on Twitter or read any news about the world of crypto in the last 6 months, you’ve probably heard of NFTs, or non-fungible tokens. At a basic level, an NFT is a digital asset that links ownership to unique physical or digital items, such as works of art, real estate, in-game items, music, or videos. Some of the most popular NFT projects include CryptoPunks, Art Blocks, Bored Ape Yacht Club and CryptoKitties, with more and more launching every day.

In this episode, we sit down with Roham Gharegozlou. He’s the founder and CEO of Dapper Labs, the team behind CryptoKitties, Cheese Wizards, NBA Top Shot, Flow Blockchain, and more, and an early pioneer of the NFT movement. Formed in February 2018, Dapper Labs was spun out of Axiom Zen, a venture studio that Roham launched, to bring the benefits of decentralization to the first billion consumers through the power of play, fairness and true ownership. The company recently raised a funding round of $250 million at a $7.6 billion valuation.

We covered a ton of topics including Roham’s upbringing and early career, how he fell into crypto and NFTs, why he created CryptoKitties, his vision for the future, and much more.
