    Reid Robinson - NFT Social Media

    TL;DR: With lazy minting, you have the option to make your NFT attainable off the blockchain, so you only pay for gas(the fees associated with the computing power it takes to add your NFT to the blockchain) once your NFT has been sold. cocoNFT helps make this possible! Not too many years ago, you may have heard the word "meme" and assumed it referred to someone's estranged French Canadian grandmother. Now, iconic digital images like Disaster Girl and everyone's favorite flying feline toaster pastry Nyan Cat (see image below) have sold at auction for as much as half a million dollars. Total NFT sales this year so far clock in at an absolutely ice cold $2.5 billion. https://blog.coconft.com/how-much-does-it-cost-to-create-an-nft-755d0db24757

    EVAC Movement & DreamCrazy NFT (FOR GOOD)

    The EVAC Movement started with a group of students and our teacher, Amy Donofrio, in Jacksonville, Florida. Our class was full of conflict and divided, until we began sharing our stories, and realized our shared traumatic experiences: murdered loved ones, incarceration, and police brutality. We began not only to bond…but motivated to create change. We began by inviting police officers to class for youth-led roundtables and just over one year later, these powerful in-class discussions led to us speaking at the White House, meeting President Barack Obama, making the front page of The New York Times and winning first-place nationwide in a contest sponsored by Harvard. We share this journey in our Tedx Talk, "At-Risk or At-Hope? How We Label Youth Matters."
