Horacio spoke with Cameron Hejazi, the co-founder and CEO of Cent. Cameron created Cent in 2017 with the purpose of creating a community where artists could share their work and build a fan base. Cent made headlines when Valuables, its NFT marketplace of Tweets, minted Jack Dorsey’s first tweet and sold it for $2.9 million. Cent also created a separate NFT marketplace that had to be shut down due to fraudulent activity. Cameron discusses all this and more on the podcast.
