However, the believers in the future boom of NFTs in the crypto community are a lot. Including Marie Tatiboue, Gate.io’s chief marketing officer (CMO).
Tatiboue said that she agreed with Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary in his view that NFTs can one day outshine Bitcoin in terms of market capitalization.
“Absolutely. I think 100% because the NFT market can be so many different things. And I really do think for example all of the art pieces will have NFTs.
