NFT Ticket Case Study: Queen George on Growth Hacking Collectors
This episode, from Mint Season 4, Episode 21, is a pivotal moment in my journey as a web3 founder. It significantly contributed to the development of Bello through the insights gained from my conversation with Queen George, a crypto-native jazz-pop artist, who has been exploring web3 since April 2021. We discuss our strategy in building a collector base in web3 and the success of her live concert at ETH Denver in February 2022, where she effectively minted tickets as NFTs, attracting 120 collectors. This conversation documented our thoughtful experimentation with NFTs and planted the seed for a whole new chapter in my life.
