Avid NFT collector Aftab Hossain (aka @iamDCinvestor on Crypto Twitter) discusses why OpenSea and NFT volumes are popping to start 2022, how LooksRare’s vampire attack is a good thing for the NFT market, and how royalties affect a project’s trading potential. Show topics:
why Aftab thinks NFT floor prices are rising and what role NFT “flippers” have to do with his theory
whether the NFT industry could continue growing even if fungible crypto assets enter a bear market
how the LooksRare vampire attack on OpenSea works
why people are wash trading NFTs on LooksRare
why Aftab would choose to list NFTs on LooksRare over OpenSea
whether LooksRare’s vampire attack will force OpenSea to decentralize and/or tokenize
what sort of NFT projects should have royalties… and which projects shouldn’t
Thank you to our sponsors!
