After a 2021 frothy bull market, NFTs are currently experiencing the depression phase of the market cycle. However, despite the fact that only NFT art has truly found its product-market fit, NFTs in general represented the consumerist moment for crypto. In addition, they also provided a solution for tokenising real world assets (RWA) and intangibles, potentially penetrating markets worth hundreds of trillions of dollars. Moreover, similar to digital art, the advent of AI poses a challenge when it comes to establishing provenance, but this represents another utility for NFTs, as they can be traced back to their origin, given the public nature of blockchains.
We were joined by Stephen Young and Storm from NFTFi, to discuss the general state of the NFT market, future prospects for NFT development and how their P2P NFT lending platform unlocks new sources of liquidity in this bear market.

Paul Mountford, Chief Executive Officer, Protegrity
May 2023 marked the 5th anniversary of GDPR. Now is the time to take the next step forward in managing data with a global data security framework with common standards. Such a framework would allow secure borderless data flow. But is this a realistic aim? According to UNCTAD 71% of countries have data protection regulations in place and a further 9% have legislation in development. One solution to this multiplicity of regulatory environment could come with greater adoption of pseudoanonymised data. Paul Mountford, CEO of Protegrity explains to Robin Amlôt of IBS Intelligence how this could work.
