12 – Will Etheridge: NFTs, Decentralized Fashion, Sustainable Sourcing & Cardano

Today I’m joined by Will Etheridge, the Founder of Origin Thread. Origin Thread is a men’s clothing brand focused on leveraging NFTs to decentralize fashion and connect people to how their clothes have been made. In this episode, Will breaks down the definition of NFTs and the pros and cons of non-fungible tokens relative to fungible cryptocurrencies. From there, we discuss the mystique around Bitcoin’s founder Satoshi Nakamoto and the opportunities for global redistribution of wealth provided by crypto. We then discuss concepts like cryptography, immutability, proof-of-work and proof-of-stake. Finally, Will explains the business model for Origin Thread, why he chose to launch his NFTs on the Cardano blockchain and the importance of free dissemination of information.
