In Demystifying NFTs Episode 1, Alice Budge of SR International is joined by Jennifer Stivrins and Vito Marzano of Kissel, Straton & Wilmer to discuss the super-basics of NFTs. What are NFTs? How do they work? And how are they valued? Our speakers have a spirited conversation about why we should care about NFTs and preview topics for future episodes as well, including how they expect NFT exposure to factor into liability underwriting in the coming years.

Special thanks to Liam Thau of Kissel, Straton & Wilmer for support and research for this episode.
