New Meebits owner Sergito Silva says NFTs are like Hot Wheels and G.I. Joes — and a great way for adults to make new friends. NFT Collector.
Sergito Silva aka Sergito was an unofficial ambassador for the Meebits collection of 20,000 3D voxel NFTs. Despite coming from Larva Labs, the founders of CryptoPunks and Autoglyphs, the collection was arguably undervalued.
Fast forward to now and the ex-Goldman Sachs employee is at the center of the Meebs universe as CEO after acquiring the collection from Yuga Labs in February.
The journey into NFTs for Sergito started in February 2021 after he stumbled on an article about a guy named gmoney whod just purchased an Ape CryptoPunk for $150,000 in the largest Punk sale at the time.
That caught my attention. I was like, what is this? This is crazy. Why are people spending money on jpegs? Out of curiosity, I downloaded Discord and I joined the Punk’s group. 72 hours later, I was completely NFT-pilled, says Sergito.
