That's a pretty cool thing to be able to do for like 0.40 cents per megabyte.” [00:17:09]“One day someone is going to turn that off and then eventually your NFT is going to be worthless. That's crazy. It doesn't need to be this way. Just do it on Arweave and then it's there forever.” [00:21:15]“The idea is that with Arweave, because you can start smart contracts from the tags associated, where they file. Then now you can associate the contract of an NFT directly with the file of NFT in one thing, and then refer to them by the same transaction ID.” [00:33:16]LinksArweave - https://www.arweave.org/CoinGecko - https://www.coingecko.com/Arweave (AR) - https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/arweaveSocial MediaArweave:https://twitter.com/arweaveteamhttps://t.me/arweaveCoinGecko:https://twitter.com/coingeckohttps://t.me/coingecko
