Context: Views on Crypto and Culture

Blake speaks with Daisy Alioto, cofounder of Dirt Media. She is so ahead of the curve in her understanding of the ever changing media business and how crypto technology fits in - and the convo covers all of this.

Blake asks Daisy to explain how NFTs facilitate new business models and advertising environments. Daisy also highlights how NFTs don’t have to be investment vehicles and instead, can be used to build stronger relationships between a subscriber and a publication.

Daisy expands further on how to make media more collectible, and how she see Dirt’s drop model more akin to a streetwear company like Supreme rather than to a traditional media publication’s like Vogue.

They dive into the newsletter business too, as well as how meme coins become their own media communities, how books are the new handbags, Twitter vibe shifts and Addison Rae.

This is a must listen if you want to get a stronger grasp on where the media industry is headed and better understand your own media consumption habits and how crypto technology can fit into that.
