We had a plan for this one but it quickly went off the rails. AG tried his best to keep things on track, but the questions took a philosophical route with Andrew on this episode. We covered all the usual Metaverse subjects, but we went further, asking questions like:
- What happens to all the critical real-world jobs when play-to-earn becomes a dominant way to make money?
- Does the game theory of increased tax revenue force all governments to eventually cave and embrace crypto?
- If NFTs are digital property rights, how do we get incumbents to recognise them?
It’s a long one, running close to 2 hours but it was great to pick the brains of one of the sector’s most prominent thinkers.

NFTfi is a simple peer-to-peer marketplace for collateralized NFT loans. It allows borrowers to put up assets for a loan and lenders to make offers in exchange for interest. The NFT is held in escrow while the loan is active so lenders know for sure that they will either get their money back with interest or receive the NFT in exchange.
If you would like to borrow using an NFT for collateral, you can go to NFTfi and post your desired terms. If someone likes those terms, they can extend a loan to you. Alternatively, if you would like to provide a loan to individuals in exchange for favorable interest rates or the potential of scoring a specific NFT, you can do that too!
