:: 01.2 serendipity :: There was a tone of urgency in his voice and I overheard something about “Olympics” and “we need a product ASAP”. After the call I asked him what he’s got going on he said it’s kind of crazy, probably not something I’ve heard of, NFT shit, and he was just hired to stand up the first ever official Olympic digital collectible program for the British Olympic Team to be ready for the Tokyo Olympics, which started in a couple weeks. Problem was they now had to contract but no product! My following comment was something like “NFW, I know all about NFTs, and design and UX/UI is in my wheelhouse. Do you need some help?” We agreed to meet he next day at a local coffee shop, and one large Americano later I was part of the founding team at TOKNS! Time to grind! /sports /sports-web3 /olympics /design /blockchain /startups /founders
