While the crypto market is experiencing a sharp fall, NFT trading volume is, surprisingly, on the rise.
Kevin O’Leary believes in NFTs’ greatest potential
Shark Tank investor Kevin O’Leary thinks that NFTs’ greatest potential lies in “the authentication of physical assets.” He proved his point by making a video (which will later be used as “the shoot of the shoot”), where he explained his point of view.
“<..>I’m going to cut this video of the shoot of the shoot, make it short, and incorporate it in the NFT so whoever buys the other prints is going to get the history of the making of this image, which is what I think NFTs should do. They should authenticate, but also give you the background of it,” the investor said.
