This is a recast of an interview I guest hosted on Real Vision on February 8, 2022 featuring Shashi Menon and Nick Gonzalez, Co-Founders of UNXD, a curated marketplace for digital luxury and culture. They are the team behind Dolce and Gabbana’s debut NFT drop and the latest NFT collection with luxury watchmaker Jacob & Co. called Astronomia Metaverso.That Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana personally designed a set that ended up selling for $6 million strongly suggests NFTs are more than just a novelty. We’re talking real money – and real assets. Dolce & Gabbana launched its first NFTs with the help of UNXD co-founders Shashi Menon and Nick Gonzalez. Menon and Gonzalez share with Leslie Lamb, founder and host of the Crypto Unstacked podcast, the story of how they were able to inspire this multi-billion-dollar fashion conglomerate to create its own nine-piece virtual/physical collection. Menon and Gonzalez see this as a watershed moment for NFT experimentation by large corporations; UNXD is now working with watchmaker Jacob & Co. for yet another large-scale release. Menon, Gonzalez, and Lamb discuss the future of NFTs and why they’re here to stay.

This is a recast of an interview I guest hosted on Real Vision in January 2022  featuring Charli Cohen, a London-based fashion designer and founder of the eponymous CHARLI COHEN and digital fashion wear company RSTLSS. Fashion famously moves fast. In the metaverse, it’s even faster. Digital identity and the importance of one’s virtual aesthetics are new concepts to older generations. But today’s kids are growing in a time when virtual identity is as important as physical presence. Fashion designer Charli Cohen understands this dynamic and is capitalizing on it with her eponymous line Charli Cohen. Her 100,000-strong Instagram following testifies to her goals of making metaverse fashion more inclusive and uplifting. Charli joins Leslie Lamb, host and producer of the Crypto Unstacked Podcast, to share how she’s pioneered in this space. Filmed on January 6, 2022.Watch the full interview here

This is a recast of an interview I guest hosted on Real Vision in December 2021 featuring Daniella Loftus, digital fashion expert and founder of This Outfit Does Not Exist.The idea of digital fashion is nothing new for today’s youth. Through mediums like Fortnite, Roblox, and a host of other video games and social media apps, our species has reached a turning point in which virtual accessories are more coveted than the latest designer clothes. Digital expression has become vital for communal interaction, and Daniella Loftus, founder of This Outfit Does Not Exist, is capitalizing on the opportunity. She acknowledges that this subsect of NFTs has lagged behind others, like digital art, but believes 2022 will see explosive growth for the NFT fashion sector. Loftus noticed this societal shift early on and is currently amassing a digital fashion gallery. She joins Leslie Lamb, host and producer of the Crypto Unstacked Podcast, to discuss her work in the digital fashion space. Check out her gallery here: https://www.thisoutfitdoesnotexist.com/exhibit.

This is a recast of a recent interview I guest hosted on Real Vision featuring Darius Sit, co-founder and managing partner of QCP Capital. Darius Sit speaks about his outlook for the DeFi sector. Being Singapore-based, Sit is at the heart of the Asian financial markets and digital asset community. After a recent meeting with Paul Tudor Jones, Sit came away with enlightening insights on inflation within digital assets. While global fiat inflation is viewed as bullish for crypto, Sit learned from his meeting with Jones that inflation is rampant in the digital asset space itself. The advent of Dogecoin and the Shiba Inu token demonstrates the inflationary nature of crypto as many new tokens come online with multiple tokens idolizing the same breed of dog. In addition, Sit gives us his outlook for 2022 and explains why we may see some volatility in the months ahead. Recorded on December 7, 2021.Watch the full interview here

Ampleforth (AMPL) is a monetary innovation and primitive building-block for the decentralized finance ecosystem. Like Bitcoin, it is uncollateralized. Unlike Bitcoin, the Ample eschews a fixed supply schedule and instead automatically adjusts supply in response to price-exchange rate. The Ampleforth protocol receives exchange-rate information from trusted oracles, and propagates that to holders of its units (Amples) by proportionally increasing or decreasing the number of tokens each individual holds.The unique incentives, movement pattern, and monetary qualities of AMPL, make it ideally suited to: 1) add value to baskets of digital assets, reducing aggregate volatility, 2) be useful as a building block in broader decentralized finance (DeFi) applications, much as physical commodities were building blocks in the historical financial system.We unstack:► Influential economic thinkers► Failed currency pegs► Monetary trilemma: adaptive supply, durable value, stable peg► The base money problem v. the fiat problem► How AMPL stacks up to Ampleforth's initial goals► Rebasing tokens v. coupon-based tokens► Comparing single token v. multi-token model► Is the goal of AMPL stability?► AMPL's stable contracts utility► Evolution of debt in the crypto market+ more!LINKSAmpleforth: A New Synthetic CommodityCentral Banks — A Bad Influence on Decentralized FinanceAlgorithmic stablecoins aren’t really stable, but can the concept redeem itself?Synthetic Commodity Money (2013)Risk and Return of Cryptocurrency (2018)Stability, Elasticity, and Reflexivity: A Deep Dive into Algorithmic StablecoinsThe Letter and Spirit of Composability FOLLOW AMBER GROUPTwitter: https://twitter.com/ambergroup_ioEmail: [email protected]: https://www.ambergroup.io/DISCLOSUREThe Crypto Unstacked Podcast is meant for informational purposes only and should not be considered as financial or investment advice.
