Mike Saraswat, founder and CEO of Ekstasy, recently explored NFTs and the inner workings of creating them for brands at the APAʼs ʻFuture of Advertisingʼ event.
Mike focuses on educating brands and agencies about NFTs, beyond the hype of being pretty speculative artworks. He explains why brands should begin with strategy first and think of two words when developing the strategy - scarcity and access.
NFTs can be considered as the currency of the trust economy. They are built upon the blockchain technology and provide verifiable digital scarcity - not a get rich quick scheme or just a PR stunt. They add value and delight to a community of fans or customers. To find out more click here.
