3 Value Bombs
1) It’s coming slowly, but when it does come, it will come suddenly.
2) There are two main types of tokens when it comes to crypto currency. There are fungible tokens, which is like Bitcoin. Non-fungible tokens mean it’s a token still on the blockchain, but they’re unique and irreplaceable.
3) The main thing to understand when it comes to mass adoption, particularly of blockchain and cryptocurrency, is the fact that we’re going to use a lot of this technology without necessarily knowing that we’re using the technology and how it works.

Today’s Audio MASTERCLASS: Revolutionizing eCommerce with the Blockchain, Web3.0 and NFTs
[1:18] – Dimitri shares something that he believes about becoming successful that most people disagree with.
- There’s a defined set of steps when it comes to achieving what it is that you set out to achieve, and the complexity comes in executing on that – and people’s attitude towards it.
[2:04] – What are NFTs?
- NFTs are non-fungible tokens.
- There are two main types of tokens when it comes to cryptocurrency. There are fungible tokens, which is like Bitcoin. Non-fungible tokens mean it’s a token still on the blockchain, but they’re unique and irreplaceable.
- These files are on the blockchain, and they can be transferred between two owners. We can verify who actually owns them without any middle man.
[4:02] – Ways to integrate NFTs and e-commerce.
- In terms of product launches, we sell an NFT that’s representative of that product, and then when it comes time for shipment, the customer can come and redeem that NFT and then get shipped the product.
- The cool thing with NFTs is we can program into that NFT on the blockchain that every time it’s sold or it exchanges hands, 5% or 10% of that value goes back to the original creator of the NFT.
- In terms of prominence or certificates of authenticity, we can tie that NFT with that certificate of authenticity to the product, and then every time the product is sold in the future, you can then get a kickback
- You can use it for loyalty programs for eCommerce brands.
[7:11] – How can NFTs impact. existing brands via integrations?
- A streetwear and apparel brand that came out of the U.S. that’s about 20 years old recently released an NFT collection called The Adam Bomb Squad.
- When customers buy the NFT, they get benefits, exclusive products, special patterns and designs of their streetwear etc.

[13:11] – Example of companies integrating NFTS, Web 3, Blockchain, etc. into their business,
[16:23] – Barriers to mass adoption.
- It’s mainly because the technology hasn’t developed enough.
- The main thing to understand when it comes to mass adoption, particularly with blockchain and crypto currency, is the fact that we’re going to use a lot of this technology without necessarily knowing that we’re using the technology and how it works.
[17:54] – What ways will adoption be able to drive sales?
- It really comes down to the value that you’re providing. If you can create that sort of dynamic value for your pass holders and for your community members, then they’ll continue shopping, and that’s going to increase their customer lifetime value.
- This whole model with the NFT’s introduces 2 new revenue sources to the brand:
- Commissions that you take as a brand and as the creator, and
- Increasing sales by increasing the customer lifetime value and decreasing the acquisition costs.
[20:51] – Dimitri’s key take away and call to action.
- It’s coming slowly, but when it does come, it will come suddenly.
