005: Criteria Deep-Dive - One Of The Largest Music NFT Drops To Date

In the wake of one of the biggest Music NFT drops ever by 2 of the most prominent Web3 music artists - Daniel Allan & Reo Cragun - they join me on the pod to discuss the huge success from last week. With almost 110 ETH raised, 2,500 collections minted and a rush to mint out all 3 phases of the sale, Criteria has already occupied a special spot in the Music NFT space. So who better to talk to in order to find out what the music was inspired by, the planning that went into the drop, the emotions they had in the days leading up to it, as well as their plans for the future now that the Web3 part of this EP has dropped.

004: How To Dominate Fantasy Sports In Web3 With Sorare's First User

Mark is Sorare’s first user and his teams (YNWA) have been dominating the Football side since the game’s inception, while most recently he’s gotten involved in the NBA and MLB as well. We had a fascinating conversation that dug into the beginnings of Sorare that came after a few other failed attempts at creating a sustainable fantasy sports game using blockchain technology. We looked at how the game evolved on the football side, the risk Mark took on buying cards early when Sorare was an unproven project, the opportunity offered by the introduction of NBA & MLB leagues this year, as well as some golden advice for new Sorare managers. Whatever your budget is, if you’re into fantasy sports, this conversation provides really good context on one of the most promising fantasy sports platforms (that just so happens to also use blockchain technology in a seamless way!).

003: Taking Music NFTs Mainstream With A Timeless Hit w/ Daniel Allan

Daniel Allan joins the pod to talk about his musical journey and success with Music NFTs in the Web3 world. From selling 1 of 1 pieces on Catalog for a few ETH in the Summer of 2021, to raising 50 ETH in 24h via his Overstimulated EP campaign, Daniel has become one of the most important artists in the Music NFT space. While many could look at his success and attribute it to the early mover advantage, Daniel actually spent hundreds of hours trying to figure out how the Web3 ecosystem works before becoming successful. We dive into the research he did, his initial approach, his advice for artists who want to emulate his success in the space and his view on what it will take for Music NFTs to hit mainstream. He also drops an exciting announcement about a future EP drop towards the end of the episode. You’ll have to tune in to find out… This is a public episode.

Windra sat down with me to talk about his crazy journey in Web3 thus far - from buying ETH in 2016 (06:15), to the madness of the 2017 ICO run and the despair of the Covid crash where he got liquidated and had to start all over again (36:10).

001: Coop Records Origin Story

In the very first epispode of the WebFree Podcast, I spoke to Cooper Turley - prominent Web3 investor, Music NFT collector and most recently founder of Coop Records. We discussed his crypto story from the very beginning - how he got onboarded in 2017, the opportunities he saw in the previous bear market, how he spotted successful trends early (such as DeFi) and the lessons he’s learned along the way on how to outperform this super competitive space. We then switch to Cooper’s main focus for the past 1.5 years - Music NFTs. What role do they currently play? How do they empower artists to be independent? What’s the importance of being able to invest in culture? And how is Coop Records positioned to take advantage of this all? You can also find the video on our YouTube Channel.
