My mind was blown when I saw a photo of Spottie performing at ApeFest and realized that I knew him from his days touring the Midwest!

Mig's a killer musician who somehow managed to achieve the monumental task of getting a law degree while performing 3-5 shows a week as a touring artist.

After nearly a decade long hiatus from music, he came back as Spottie WiFi where he's set the bar when it comes to building brand alongside NFT IP.

Here the thing: Mig didn't build a CryptoPunk brand. He isn't drafting off of the CryptoPunk name as typically happens in the NFT space.

Instead, he's built a brand and business that has his CryptoPunk at its core. You can almost say that Punk #5528 is the mascot for the Spottie WiFi brand rather than the Spottie WiFi brand being the #5528.

It sounds like semantics, but the way he's used his CryptoPunk as a starting off point, a rough sketch of sorts, and has built up on the framework from there is a work of genius.

I genuinely believe Mig's found a way to tread new ground when it comes to NFT IP and brand development and there's so much that can be learned from diving into his story.

I didn't even mention the impact he's had on the music industry, garnering enough attention to even get a nod from Snoop Dogg himself.

  • What actually is an audit and why is it a concern?
  • Can I avoid paying taxes by just secretly keeping everything in my Metamask wallet? 
  • What's the difference between tax planning and tax avoidance?
  • Do I have to claim airdrops ($ENS, $SOS, etc) on my taxes?
  • Domain in control and how timing your claim of an airdrop can be to your detriment.
  • How often do artists and creators need to convert to stable coin or fiat to be prepared for taxes?

  • Is there tax liability when selling an NFT for a profit and immediately reinvesting it into other NFTs?

  • How to reduce your cost basis across wallets.

  • What is the wash sale rule and is it something we need to be concerned with this year?
  • What does an accountant need to do your crypto/NFT taxes?
  • How much does it cost for crypto/NFT tax accounting?
  • How should someone be planning now to be better prepared for taxes next year?

It was from his pure tenacity and drive to live life on his terms by learning, creating, experimenting, and relentlessly doing what it takes to win.

"Everyone always said, 'Well, you should do something more practical.' And I just didn't care because it's very simple: you just keep doing it until you're there."
—Gavin Meeler

Growing up, Gavin read every book he could find about celebrities and being financially successful out of fear that he would get stuck in a bad financial place. But it was when he discovered Gary Vaynerchuk that he finally found his person.

Gary inspired him to try the flip game, buying items at garage sales and thrift shops and selling them elsewhere for a profit. But one day there was a video with Gary V and Fewocious describing NFTs that changed Gavin's trajectory forever.

Gavin's is an amazing story that has an unexpected, full circle return of Gary V at multiple, impactful moments in his story, culminating with an unexpected, but all too fitting purchase of one of Gavin's NFTs.

"When anything happens two times it means you're on to something or you got lucky twice. It's possible that you got lucky twice, but you're probably on to something."
—Gavin Meeler

This is a wonderful conversation and I'm so honored to be the one to help tell Gavin's story.

Be sure to follow him on Twitter at @gavinmeeler and find his NFT collections below:

]]> After talking to Gavin I quickly learned that his success as an artist wasn't by accident. It was from his pure tenacity and drive to live life on his terms by learning, creating, experimenting, and relentlessly doing what it takes to win.

"Everyone always said, 'Well, you should do something more practical.' And I just didn't care because it's very simple: you just keep doing it until you're there."
—Gavin Meeler

Growing up, Gavin read every book he could find about celebrities and being financially successful out of fear that he would get stuck in a bad financial place. But it was when he discovered Gary Vaynerchuk that he finally found his person.

Gary inspired him to try the flip game, buying items at garage sales and thrift shops and selling them elsewhere for a profit. But one day there was a video with Gary V and Fewocious describing NFTs that changed Gavin's trajectory forever.

Gavin's is an amazing story that has an unexpected, full circle return of Gary V at multiple, impactful moments in his story, culminating with an unexpected, but all too fitting purchase of one of Gavin's NFTs.

"When anything happens two times it means you're on to something or you got lucky twice. It's possible that you got lucky twice, but you're probably on to something."
—Gavin Meeler

This is a wonderful conversation and I'm so honored to be the one to help tell Gavin's story.

We dive into FatBaby's origin story, as always, but this is an absolute masterclass in creating a generative NFT Project, specifically a PFP Project (Profile Picture).

FatBaby's first project, Clever Girls, was an amazing success, completely selling out in just 20 minutes. But a lot was learned from that project and Raptor City Rascals benefits from that evolution.

In this conversation we learn about the journey that took FatBaby all over the globe: to the classroom, the farm,  YouTube, and everything in between. Then we talk about everything PFPs, where to begin, how to think about attributes, how many attributes are too many, pricing, the connection between PFPs and logo design, hiring and paying your team, and so so much more.

This conversation was a joy and I'm certain will be extremely valuable to anyone curious about the world of generative NFT projects.

SPONSORED EPISODE
This episode was sponsored by Richie from Chef Boi R Doge.

In the past I’ve had to unfortunately turn people away who’ve reached out to be featured on Starting Now. It takes a lot of time to produce a show the way that I do and since I curate all the guests based on the communities I’m involved in, I already have months of guests lined up.

That said, I'm now offering sponsored episodes to creators who wouldn’t otherwise get featured on the show, but still want a video deep dive into their origin story.

These episodes are exactly the same as normal. We dive into the guest's NFT origin story and talk about the project. But by offering episode sponsorships for a nominal fee, projects and artists not already on my radar get to jump the line and get their own episode.

This has the added benefit of also helping me pay the bills since everything I do for the show is free :)

We get a peek into Cal’s brilliant concept for a generative project that’s uniquely his own. We discuss the challenges of balancing a full-time job with NFTs and a family. And Cal considers whether a full-time NFT career is in his future.

We also talk about Ethereum vs Tezos vs Solana from the artist's perspective, how to establish an equitable relationship between artists and developers, and much more. This is a wonderful conversation and I know you'll love it as much as I did.

But in just 2 months he's built a community of fans who have an insatiable need for his SkullKids. As a result over 60 ETH has been traded in just 2 months (around $120,000).

Early on Jack learned that opportunity is out there if you "knock until your knuckles are white. The worst thing they can tell you is no."

He will say that he's always had a little luck in his pocket, but the truth is that he's made his own. By his own account, the secret recipe to his success is giving a shit.

Since the early 2000s Chris's passion for branding and marketing has set him apart in the music industry.

Along with being massively talented, Chris will out hustle anyone, believing that hustle is just as important as talent.

Chris was ahead of his time when he went against conventional wisdom to start his own record label and when he used merch and creative marketing to create a successful band that was shrouded in mystery and perplexed the major record labels.

And that only scratches the surface, Chris has gone on to write and produce for artists like Cee Lo Green (Grammy nominated), Weezer (Grammy nominated), Jason Derulo, movies like Lego Batman and Lego Ninjago, TV Shows, video games, and commercials.

Chris is a great example of someone who's recognized the importance of standing out and  has found ways to do so through creativity and hard work.

I hope you find his story as inspiring as I do.
