Believe it or not a lot has changed in the world of NFTs since we checked in on them waaaayyyy back in series 2. In today's episode, we catch up with what is happening in the art world and how luxury brands are selling digital assets to users within the Metaverse on gaming platforms such as Roblox.


Today's special guests are Steve Assoe and Holly Atkinson


Steve is from Montreal, Canada and he is a passionate visual artist, pursuing a masters in Marketing and exploring the world of NFTs. He also hosts the Fire and Nice Podcast. You can follow Steve on Instagram Here. And check out his Podcast Here.


Holly is the head of Metaverse Technology at Boson Protocol. And has plans to launch Portal, the world's first metaverse commerce brand. Where you can buy physical products in the metaverse as NFTs.


Portal sits at the confluence of both these megatrends, building out the infrastructure for a whole new generation of decentralised eCommerce. The virtual lifestyle, commerce and cultural playground seamlessly connects the metaverse with the universe, and for the first time, enables the selling of real-world products not only in-game, but physically, too.


For more information visit Portal here. Or follow Holly on Twitter Here.
