🤔 what the heck is an NFT?

Hey
Want to finally learn what on earth NFTs are and why everyone won't shut up about them? Well here's your chance.
You showed up for a workshop we did with General Assembly, so I wanted to shoot you an invite to another free online event we're doing next week all about NFTs.
Now like most people I've dabbled in crypto over the years but when I heard that Beeple sold an NFT for $69 million, my ears perked up immediately.
Like how the hell do you sell a GIF for more than a Van Gogh or Picasso?
I needed to know what the heck these things were and why they were worth so much.
So when our team started brainstorming ideas for upcoming events with General Assembly--I raised my hand and asked why not do something on NFTs.
To be fair, I mostly asked out of selfish curiosity because I know how awesome our team is at tracking down the most interesting people for panels and workshops.
And needless to say, I think they delivered.
Cari, from General Assembly, used her GA wizardry and managed to snag us an afternoon with Joshua Doner, one of the first people on the planet to buy an NFT.
So we bagged an NFT OG just for you.
Joshua will be with us live on Wednesday, September 1 @ 1 pm EST to basically give a beginner's guide to NFTs. Joshua is going to go over the basics of what the heck they are and we'll talk about future applications of this tech.
If you're interested in learning more then join me, Josh, and the General Assembly fam next week to finally have your questions answered.
Head over to General Assembly's page for the event and RSVP while we still have seats available: https://generalassemb.ly/education/nfts-explained-what-are-they-and-why-are-some-worth-millions/miami/192914
P.S. If you got any questions about the event then just shoot me a reply to this email. I'm going to be moderating with our boy Joshua after all.
