Laura Shin:

Hi, everyone. Welcome to Unchained, your no-hype resource for all things crypto. I’m your host, Laura Shin, author of The Cryptopians. I started covering crypto seven years ago, and as a senior editor at Forbes, was the first mainstream media reporter to cover cryptocurrency full-time.

NFT marketplaces are entering the mainstream. eBay recently announced an acquisition of KnownOrigin, and Uniswap is acquiring marketplace aggregator Genie.
