Snoop Dogg also confirmed today that he will join Charles Hoskinson, the creator of the Cardano blockchain and a co-founder of Ethereum, on Twitter Spaces on April 5—and that “this will be great.”
Hoskinson, for his part, confirmed this, saying, “Yes, I’ll be with Snoop on the 5th.” “I have the best job in the world,” says the narrator.
At least a portion of the conversation will reportedly be devoted to Snoop Dogg’s new association with Cardano-based platform Clay Nation, which will “bring you classic memorabilia, unreleased songs, & limited edition ‘pitches’.”
Clay Nation previously released—and quickly sold out—a collection of “original handcrafted Clay NFTs” that also serve as “admission to Clay Nation Festival & metaverse moulding.”
