The show opens with the surge in NFT activity on Zcash and a larger debate over attention versus fundamentals before turning to BAYC and what membership in the club should actually mean.

Later, SimpleFarmer breaks down the StonkBrokers Interns mint, including how Interns connect back to existing StonkBrokers and the broader product mechanics.

NFT Season Three is getting more experimental as the show breaks down Standard Reserve’s token mechanics, Rare Friends and Nightshades’ live faction game. Poopie joins to explain Rare Friends as a virtual pet protocol, including its auction, generational NFTs and planned hardware ideas. Steve returns for a long discussion on AI-assisted research and the future of crypto explainers. The final stretch comes back to Nightshades and a bigger question for NFT brands: whether onchain games, fees and new mechanics can create better economics than relying on physical products.
