Cryptokitties, Dapper Labs & The Future

Tokel Talk Exclusive

Cryptokitties & Dapper Labs Co-Founder Mack Flavelle, spoke to Ejuliano and Kelcie about the past and the future of web3.

Amongst other things, we discuss the start of it all, the birth of NFTs through virtual cat reproduction and the creation of the ERC-721 token. We are also talking about IP rights and how that influences the industry, bringing new challenges.

Mack lives in a swamp. One time he met MC Hammer in prison, where they were both teaching the residents about technology and entrepreneurship. As far as he knows, he threw the first-ever comedy show in VR.

He was also the first person to ever use the word Neck Beard in the New York Times. And if you'll permit a poetic indulgence he's also something like the Albert Hoffman of NFTs, stumbling upon a massive piece of science that will change human culture and creativity. (Except he did it with a team of wonderful humans much smarter than him - Albert did it alone.)

Mack has been making games and doing internet things for quite some time. The ones you probably care most about are his roles as co-founder and Chief Creative Officer at Dapper Labs, maker of CryptoKitties and NBA Topshot, plus his current role as CEO at Big Head where they make amazing NFT art with utility.
