TIME President on NFT Haters: ‘I Don’t Understand the Politicizing of a Technology’
According to TIME President Keith Grossman, Web3 wasn’t part of the plan. In an interview with Decrypt at the Mainnet conference in New York, Grossman shared the story of how TIME was changed forever through crypto and NFTs, and offered his thoughts on Web3 skeptics. The main plan was never to bring TIME into Web3,” Grossman said. “We were really rehabilitating a brand that was neglected for ten years. Until COVID created national isolation and an even deeper dependency on the internet, that is. The global pandemic made Grossman realize that, from his location in upstate New York, his digital identity was just as important as his physical one. Not only did Grossman see NFTs as a business opportunity—he also sees a parallel between memes and NFTs.
