Today, I’m talking with Adam Bry, who is CEO of Skydio, the leading US maker of autonomous drones.

In the 2021 NFT boom, Logan Paul looked like he had perfect timing. A celebrity audience, expensive buys, fast sellouts, and a market eager to treat attention like value made the Logan Paul NFT story feel unstoppable, until it became one of the clearest cautionary tales in Web3.
