A podcast inside an NFT?
Brendan has a history of adapting and becoming the best in his area of focus. Schaub quickly recognized the need for digital fan memorabilia via unique tokens. He has recently created that solution in the NFT space by being the first comedian to ever curate a podcast on a blockchain. The NFT experience includes a 1:1 token that contains the exclusive podcast only available to the owners of the digital token.
Upon winning the NFT, that token holder also gains full access and control of the episode. Schaub has rewritten the history books in the blockchain space by showing other comedians that they can control the earnings and rights to their content by using NFT’s.
Why Tokenizing a Podcast Through NFTs Matters
Brendan is literally the first comedian ever to offer their podcast as an NFT. Schaub, who recognized how important it is for digital content creators to regain ownership of their work, has decided to tokenize a limited number of his podcasts via smart contracts. This allows him to control not only the deployment but the security of his digital podcast content forever.
No matter when or how it was created, he will be in control of earnings and assigning ownership to his digital work. The most exciting part about these NFT podcasts is they will be unique content only available via digital tokens. The number of tokens(podcasts) available for each episode will be limited. The scarcity of supply should encourage lucky owners of the NFT’s to resell them on open markets and create even more demand for Schaub’s work.
It’s going to actually pay off to own digital content in the future because of innovators like Schaub. Earning royalties on future sales is one of the most important features of smart contracts inside NFT’s. Schaub is a true renaissance man, demonstrating for the world how powerful NFT’s can be inside any application. Brendan is hopeful he can encourage others to monetize their digital content by leveraging blockchain technology.
