Dubbed an “unabashed futurist” by Fortune, Steve Aoki is one of the few entertainers to always be at the forefront of trends and key cultural movements — and the world of NFTs is no exception. Earlier this year, he launched A0K1VERSE, a brand-new community ecosystem bridging the metaverse with the real world, ambitiously integrating Web2, Web3, and real life experiences together in a one-of-a-kind tokenized social club. Aoki sat down with Adweek during Social Media Week to discuss his venture into Web3.
