NIKO×Yuu 2名のプロフェッショナルによる動向予測

Pioneers have already incorporated trends into their designs.

Two professionals, NIKO, creator and founder of the popular NFT project “NeoTokyoPunks,” which sold out in 2 minutes at the public sale, and Yuu, producer of the Repezen Foxx memorial NFT, predict the NFT trend.

--Themes that will be needed for NFT this year

NIKO: This year's theme will be how each business and start-up can tie NFT to physicals. Also, with the entry of large companies, it is possible that NFT will reach a wider audience that has not been exposed to NFT before.

Yuu: I agree with you about the fusion of NFT and physical. Considering the situation that can be expected in the future, I think everyone is starting similar efforts.

NIKO: Collaboration with companies will also be a theme. It is difficult for companies to leverage large-scale development on their own, so we can learn a lot by being allowed to use their technology.

Yuu: The project side is also positive about collaboration, and from my experience in NFT projects, I think that companies would like to try NFT, but they don't know what to do.

I think you know this point better than anyone else.

NIKO: As Yuu said, our firsthand experience has shown that we don't know how to tackle NFT-related business, so I think there is a part of them that wants to borrow our knowledge.

Also, there is a difference in perception in terms of the number of users. Large companies work with the advertising budgets of their existing businesses, and the thousands of NFT holders do not necessarily function in the same way as the data on thousands of people possessed by existing companies.
