The world is waking up to the metaverse. No longer are words like "NFT", "blockchain", and "crypto" spoken only by industry innovators and early adopters. Soon, your mom will be discussing NFTs with her pals in her book club. Your uncle - the one who goes on about mutual funds, bonds, and his golf slice at Thanksgiving - will soon be asking you about your crypto portfolio and how many virtual properties you scooped up in Upland last week. Next time you get pulled over by the Boys in Blue, Officer Friendly just might snarl something like "Hey now, you can't be driving like you do in your crypto car in the metaverse!"  

In this episode of The Upland Show, we tackle recent headlines and media coverage declaring the metaverse to be the future and what that means for Upland, and what that means for you. We unpack the recent 60 Minutes+ episodes on NFTs and the metaverse in which correspondent Laura Segall interviews Dirk Lueth, CEO, and co-creator of Upland, to learn about how Upland is rebuilding the world one NFT at a time. Dirk drops a few INTERESTING statements that could be easily missed if you're not paying attention. Those statements provide a tiny peek into his vision for how Upland will not just replicate the world, but IMPROVE it. Laurie, unfortunately, decides to take a dark turn in her assessment of the metaverse - we discuss that, too. Jump on in!
