Impressions and conclusions by featured speakers:
- Dmitry Kornilov – CEO, co-founder of FFFACE.ME:
The event left a great impression, in my opinion. I feel that it’s important to discuss new trends and technologies from within the industry instead of hearing about them from the press. It’s great to meet various players in the sphere like artists, traders, and collectors alike.
The main takeaways I want to emphasize are:
- After the NFT market opened, there was a noticeable survivorship bias. This led to NFT’s changing the way people think about how technology can be used to sell anything.
- In reality – just because you converted something into an NFT, doesn’t mean it suddenly gains value.
- NFT technology makes it possible to accredit uniqueness to various digital assets. However, they are only valuable if they are of any interest, regardless of the fact that they were tokenized. Or if their authors are so famous that any of their works offer value.
- The market is now normalized. Things made by prominent artists are sold with high value. Good to average works are sold for less, and amateurs offer limited to no value.
- Something you need to answer before joining the buzz is: Would you buy your own NFT yourself? And who are you making it for?
- Nikita FREEBOID Khudyakov – NFT artist, initiator of CryptoArt Ukraine:
The conference.NFT is something very fresh in crypto community. Kyiv is such a great place to have such an event to have a networking and learn more about NFTs. Art people, Gamify, Metaverse, Collectibles, we’re all can be part of this party. Looking forward the next edition!
- Lars Seier Christensen – Chairman of the Board, Concordium Foundation:
I was impressed by the many people showing up for the conference, and while I could not really appreciate most of the presenters due to language barriers, I met a lot of interesting people that I enjoyed discussing NFTs and blockchain with. I also think the launch of Dorofeeva’s interesting NFT project went very well. I would definitely be back another time!
Within the event Ukrainian artists made NFT presentations and took place Art Auction.
The world-famous pop star DOROFEEVA (MozgiGroup) launched of the NFT game at Spaceseven, the world’s first NFT marketplace utilizing the eco-friendly and highly effective Concordium blockchain as the primary chain to mint NFTs.
Everyone has their own idol, which has unique talents, knowledge and skills. I believe that this is the human of the future. This is the ancestor doll, from which all future generations of my future game will go. The first ever single edition IDOLL. Auction winner will get with NFT a real same looking doll.
More than seven hours of unique performances, presentations and interesting discussions ended with a fantastic after-party, which took place in the Avangarden Art Gallery and Wine Bar.
