Tim Ferriss has been working on a new storyworld called “The Legend of Cockpunch”. It just so happens that he chose to launch the first taste of his new IP as NFTs. In fact, he probably never would have tickled this itch for fiction if it weren’t for the invention of NFTs delivered through an immutable blockchain.

This special, two-person Phenomenal Future Podcast episode is subtitled “The Weekly Link” for a reason. Jason Brenizer and Mark Kruse are working on a few blockchain projects together and they meet several times a week. Every once in while we will open up our recordings to the public for you to get a glimpse into what’s tickling our fancies in blockchain, NFTs, smart contracts, and creative intellectual property.
