76 - Building a Bridge between Physical and Digital with METADREAMER from MetaFactory
08/13/21 • 53 min
In this episode of The Unstoppable Podcast, we’re talking to METADREAMER. He's one of the founders at MetaFactory, a digital-physical culture studio where you can buy physical items of clothing and receive a digital equivalent to them.
We talk about the best approach to building Web 3.0 — should we build a digital equivalent of the physical world, or something entirely new and digitally native? METADREAMER tells us all about MetaFactory and how it works, along with how he got the initial idea.
We discuss how MetaFactory is structured — is it like a DAO or a traditional company? We also dive into how users can get started using the platform, how wearables work in MetaFactory, and different future applications for them.
METADREAMER explains how the MetaFactory team decides which projects and artists to work with, how quickly their items typically sell out, and how they were able to grow such a strong community so fast.
Finally, we discuss what the future holds for MetaFactory and the metaverse as a whole, and what the next big NFT use case might be.

77 - Iconic Moments in NFT History with NFT Historian Trent and PaperclipDAO's Dame
In this episode of The Unstoppable Podcast, we’re talking to Trent, an NFT historian, and Dame from PaperclipDAO. PaperclipDAO recently shot to fame on Twitter after people started posting their NFT trades from the platform in a tweet thread.
We talk about what PaperclipDAO is, how the experiment got started, and how it all works on the back-end. We also dive into how Clip tokens work. We discuss the social club movement online, and what it means for the internet and decentralized space.
We also spend some time discussing the specific projects and NFTs being traded on PaperclipDAO, like Moon Cats and Astrocryptids, and what these involve. Finally, we talk about the NFT space in general and how it’s growing, along with what it means for culture and online interactions.
