This week, we’re excited to welcome Richerd Chan, the co-founder of Manifold.xyz, a leading studio that creates blockchain products and custom smart contracts for artists. In October, Richerd made headlines when he displayed his diamond hands and turned down a nearly $10 million offer for his CryptoPunk #6046. “My punk is not for sale,” he tweeted at the time. “Don’t care what anyone offers me.”


In this episode, we cover:


- Why he rejected the offer of 2,500 ETH for his CryptoPunk

- What a smart contract is and why they’re important in the NFT space

- Why artists and projects need custom smart contracts, and the innovation and utility they can unlock.

- The origin story and mission of Manifold

- How Richerd decides who to partner with on projects, and his favorite projects

- How his open-source Royalty Registry can help solve the cross-platform secondary sales issue

- The most exciting potential use cases for custom smart contracts

- And much more!
