Today we are re-sharing my Invest Like the Best conversation with Jesse Walden from March 2021.

Jesse is the founder of Variant, an early-stage venture firm investing in crypto networks and platforms building the ownership economy.

With all the hype surrounding NFTs, I wanted to talk to Jesse about them, given his background in the music industry and his focus on the creator and ownership economy. The conversation did not disappoint. We discuss the basics of what an NFT is, what new creative paradigms they might unlock, and where we are in the NFT hype cycle. I hope you enjoy this discussion with Jesse Walden.
