    Dec 10 2022

    Michael Shoup sets aside his role as The Maestro at Faceless Labs to tell us about his latest endeavor: MONARK Market -- a marketplace model for the metaverse. In a wide-ranging discussion, Evan and Michael discuss the state of the metaverse (challenges, opportunities, creator rights and user experience), debate web3 licensing models, and share a philosophical exploration of what the metaverse of the future might look like--plus how you can get involved!

    19:18 “Where do NFTs fit?” Novel solutions for unlocking content
    24:53 Why should makers care about this? (True contract ownership, asset protection, royalties, etc.)
    30:58 Marketplaces vs. Artists - respecting royalties*
    32:10 What will it cost to use MONARK? 
    35:51 The “Migration” community marketing campaign: $FLUTTER bounties and revenue sharing
    38:38 Beyond launch: the future of MONARK
    40:56 Beyond VR: more mental models and use cases for everyday life

    51:23 Giving creators the spotlight: how Michael’s background in music influences MONARK’s approach
    52:51 How to connect with Michael, start using MONARK, or participate in Migration

    1:11:43 “Any sufficiently advanced technology should be indistinguishable from magic.”

    *This episode was filmed in October, as marketplaces/creator royalties were becoming a hot topic. Any facts or figures quoted may have changed (what can we say—we were early!)
