Gary Vee Launches An NFT Initiative To Bring NFTs To The Masses

Even though non-fungible tokens and the technology behind them have been around for a while, not all individuals have become conversant with this digital asset sector. In an effort to simplify the process for individuals unfamiliar with the digital art sector, Gary Vee, an American investor, author, speaker, and internet personality, has launched a step-by-step program offering guidance for those who are new to non-fungible tokens.

What’s the deal with Zora, Base, and content coins?

Coinbase-sponsored second layer blockchain Base caused a stir on Wednesday when, despite repeatedly claiming that it had no intention of launching a token, it launched a token. Confusingly, however, depending on who you listen to, it either didn’t launch a token at all, or it has launched something called a “content coin.” BASEISFOREVERYONE was announced by Base via an X post and was billed as being for “coiners, collectors, traders, builders, creators, artists, writers, musicians, visionaries, sports fans, podcasters, travelers, DeFi users, students, and so much more.” Unfortunately, the memecoin crashed 88% within hours. What’s peculiar, however, is that Coinbase itself is adamant that it didn’t actually launch a token or memecoin. This, it says, is due to the token launching on Zora. Zora is a copy of Instagram that utilises Base’s layer 2 chain to tokenize every post users make, meaning they can subsequently be traded and sold .  A Coinbase spok...
