Mieke Marple is an NFT artist. What is an NFT you ask? Let me explain: an NFT is a new way to create a contract using a blockchain such as ethereum. If the terms NFT or blockchain or ethereum or Bitcoin are new to you then probably you want to read up on it a little bit before listening to this episode to fully understand.

Mieke has an upcoming art launch: Her Medusa Collection. See the picture in her podcast thumbnail for an example.
