Fireside Chat: Spencer Dinwiddie and Zack Seward of CoinDesk
summary
A pro basketball contract is tokenized so outside investors can buy pieces, with a pilot that secures roughly eight or nine backers who commit about $150k apiece and the team fulfilling a tranche (about 10%) of the bond despite COVID withdrawals and refunds. The project is building a fan-engagement app that uses Chainlink oracles, plans provable scarce collectibles, and positions NFTs and interoperable chains as the next product and investment focuses.
