Schuster is no stranger to this format, having previously argued on the motion “NFTs are dumb” with Sfermion managing partner Andrew Steinwold. In what will be the fourth virtual event since BlockDown debuted a year ago, the centerpiece will be a 45-minute head-to-head between EllioTrades and Edmund Schuster, with each putting forward their case as to why NFTs are meritorious – or an unsustainable, overhyped bubble.
