Encore: Blockchain Revolution Episode 3: Why Creators Are Taking Back Control 12 Hats Radio

    • Entrepreneurship

What is the Creator Economy, and why is it perhaps the most exciting corner of the Metaverse?


As more and more of us follow creative pursuits as a career, the metaverse is opening doors for artists and musicians to sell their wares directly to their fans and make a comfortable living. At the moment, the current Web 2.0 setup sees them either ripped off by streaming giants or by greedy middle agents.


Today is all about the creative community fighting back! As told by artists who are the true pioneers in selling NFTs.


Today's guests include an OG Digital Artist from Nigeria, Ade Adekola. Katie Chonacas, Greek-American Actress and Poet. Billboard-topping R & B Artist Melissa B. Aussie Hip Hop Artist St. Lane, and co-founder of Melon NFT Marketplace Fraser Bell.


🤩 A huge thank you to everyone, from the bottom of my heart. This episode is one of my favourites of all time to put together. 🤩
