How Former TradFi Trader Drove Millions Through Memes
Manage episode 360471361 series 2991091
Sergio Silva, known in the NFT space as Sergito, is a prominent investor, collector, and thought leader who leveraged his background in traditional finance working at Goldman Sachs and Barclays into a thriving Web3 career. Hailed by the NFT community as a maximalist of Meebits NFTs and a curator of memes, Sergito currently acts as the Senior Director of Business Development at Fireblocks. As a founding member of the NeonDAO — a for-profit investment fund focused on building and promoting the open metaverse — Sergito has remained a staunch believer in the potential of blockchain tech to bring about the fabled next iteration of the internet. Notably, Sergito is also the founder of Seize The Meebs, an edition-based art and meme project that focuses on digital asset ownership and NFTs as value-delivery platforms, which has reached near viral popularity in 2023.
In this episode, we dive into:
- How Sergito went from traditional finance to Web3 and NFTs
- What changed him from an NFT skeptic into a leading trader
- How he’s gotten in so early on successful artists/projects
- Why he’s so bullish on Meebits
- How he transitioned from an NFT collector to a builder/creator
- The importance of NFT culture in creating his Seize The Meebs project
- What it’s going to take for consumers to actually start using the metaverse
- And much more!
