FRESHLY BAKED

This week was NFT NYC, a conference for all the crypto believers still standing after last week’s bloodbath. There’s a bunch of speakers every year, but most people skip the conference and go for the parties networking.

Good thing, because the actual conference was kind of a disaster:

• 20K attendees + registration at the Marriott = lines so bad they spanned up and down floors
• No VIP check-in, so speakers got stuck in line with the masses and some missed the thing they were actually checking in for… their speaking gigs. LOL
• Speakers ditching their sessions before the event
