Billionaire Mark Cuban is all about DeFi and NFTs. Almost every other day, Cuban is talking about the digitized space in which he is personally invested as he revealed that besides Bitcoin, Ether, and Litecoin, which he initially said is worth less than a banana, now also owns AAVE and SUSHI.

In a video over the weekend, he praised the decentralized exchange (DEX) SushiSwap which has been doing more than half a billion worth of volume every day.

Cuban thanked everybody at Sushiswap for making him money while making it easy to yield farm, stake, and swap, all the things that are part of the new future of banking and financial world with DeFi, he said.

He is particularly getting more and more interested in non-fungible tokens, which he compares to his interest in basketball cards but even better. He explained the reason behind investing in digital collectibles saying,

“Once you realize the sense of ownership is the same for a digital collectible as a physical one you come to the realization that holding/maintaining/grading/shipping/buying/selling a physical good is a hassle. It's fast and easy w digital.”

Cuban is actually hustling on NFT marketplace Rarible, on which he has previously sold his digital piece.

Now, the owner of Dallas Maverick is selling “personalized, tokenized video,” like Cameo but with a twist of the latest technology.

“What's better than Cameo? A personalized, tokenized video that you can save or sell,” tweeted Cuban.

On buying the collectible video of his, the buyer unlocks an email address that can be used to send a request for a personalized video with a 30 MB file limit. Cuban, in response, records the video, mints it and then transfers the video to you.

While the buyer won’t have any commercial rights on it, they can resell it or keep it forever, “It will be a one of a kind.”

Twitter holder @Pranksy, co-founder of NFTBoxes, has bought 10 of these Cuban videos already. He also gifted Cuban a “Million Dollar Punk Draw ticket.”

As we reported, NFT space is exploding with celebrities like Mike Shinoda jumping in. All of this activity has the weekly NFT trade volumes surging nearly 200% from $1.86 million in early January this year to well past $7 million in the first week of February.
