Rewind: Crypto Marketing - Smart Contract Applications, NFTs and Blockchain Scalability

In this rewind episode, I am joined by Tim Haldorsson, CEO and founder of Lunar Strategy, a leading NFT and crypto marketing agency, based in Portugal.
We start off the conversation by talking about running a company in a foreign country and the dynamics of that. Then we go more specific and explain what a crypto marketing agency does - contrasting that with the work that traditional marketing agencies do.
We shift to the future of transactions and contracts, as well as the outlook for Bitcoin and Ethereum. The interesting topic of a global currency is next, as we contrast it with the US Dollar and what it’s trying to do.
To finish off, Tim gives several recommendations about marketplaces for your projects and NFTs. He also gives good advice on what to be extra cautious about.
If you are interested in Crypto and entrepreneurship, you will genuinely enjoy this episode.
