PRESENTED BY:
This podcast is proudly brought to you by Fame Lady Squad.
The From The Blockchain podcast was launched in December 2021 as a significant mission-driven “relaunch" roadmap item for the Fame Lady Squad NFT (digital collectibles) project.
FLS was the first ever all-female generative PFP (avatar-style) NFT collection launched on the Ethereum blockchain - one which was founded by men who claimed to be women during a time when women were minimally represented in an important emerging technology. When the founders' lies were discovered, the smart contract for the project was handed over to women, including your From The Blockchain host, Ashley Smith (also known by her Bored Ape Yacht Club PFP alias, “Bored Becky”).
Through the podcast and its affiliated social channels, Fame Lady Squad seeks to educate, empower, and inspire a diverse audience interested in the future of business and industry, offering a high value alternative to typical "bro culture" media prevalent in the web3 arena.
Thank you for tuning in!

Year of the Woman Founder Yasmin Shima on Building a Bridge for Traditional Art to Join Web3 #Women.NFT
From The Blockchain
08/08/22 • 25 min
Traditional art has made a new place in the digital world. More artists are recognizing the opportunities in Web 3.0 and are creating phenomenal collections. As a traditional painter, Yasmin Shima joined the digital art world and later Web3 after a procedure that kept her from standing at her easel to do her traditional art. She stared off with her Ride or Die collection minted on OpenSea. She then launched her Year of the Woman project after getting fully onboarded into the Web3 world.
Yasmin loves to champion women in her artwork. She’s most well-known for her Chinese Zodiac collection which she coins the Year of the Woman.
On the podcast, she discusses her journey in the space and the opportunities to champion women in NFTs. Listen to Yasmin share her story and discuss the state of Web3 for artists and creators. The pandemic of 2020 encouraged her to go all in on her art. She is now full time in the digital art world and is focused on onboarding new people into this blossoming space. Her network with her core team has been instrumental in growing a foundation for the business behind her project.
Yasmin recommends an artist combine the traditional with the digital as an artist by providing an IRL piece of artwork alongside the NFT purchased / minted. The utility of an artists NFT could be that simple.

From The Blockchain

Sarina Charugundla is the Co-Founder of TreeTrunk NFT which is the first multi-party royalty-bearing NFT. She's a creative thinker with a background in mechanical engineering, marketing, telecom, and business. Sarina thrives in the intersection of art and technology.

Tune in as Ashley and Danielle dive deep into what TreeTrunk NFT is all about, and how they are solving this gap by putting artists at the forefront. Giving them a chance to mint an NFT, and earn royalties, while still holding all of the property rights of that initial print.
