Is it black and white, or is there a spectrum? He also shares a fascinating water analogy to help understand the value of NFTs.We discuss whether people inherently understand the value of NFTs. Matt introduces the idea of science NFTs and how Planck allows scientists to mint and study their own NFTs, and how this could further science by generating more exposure and funding for projects.Matt talks about how he created and sold his own science NFT (the first ever!), and how his PhD in behavioral economics fits into Web 3.0.
