In this Monday episode, we chat with Nik Kalyani, a serial entrepreneur, early crypto miner, CryptoKitties owner and generally an early NFT adopter, and founder of NftyDreams DAO. Nik would call himself more of a catalyst than a collector, but that being said, he has collected 25 photo NFTs from Sloika-verified photographers including Jassi Oberai, Haesum Ali, Kevin Paul Zilaboo, Ebrahim Elmi, Bondhu Dey, and Subodh Shetty. He is a self-proclaimed tech geek who also likes to build DIY projects in his free time. He feels a “Ready-Fire-Aim” style of thinking, asking for what you want, and waking up very early are keys to success for entrepreneurs. We learn that both Nik and Ev Tchebotarev are fans of Scott Adams’ book, “How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big.” Nik sees NFTs as vectors to help people in real life and we learn how NftyDreams DAO does just that to fulfill its core mission. Recorded October 24, 2022.

Our speakers: Nik Kalyani, Ev Tchebotarev, Subodh Shetty, Maheen, Siradipity, Kirit Prajapati, Waleed Shah, Jeremy Oogleyboogley, Craig Fruchtman, and host, Pam Voth.
