Did you know that NFTs can be used in a myriad of ways, which aren't limited to collectibility?

Cardstack is solving the problems of Web3 transactions by providing fast, easy, and cheap payments through Card Pay. Chris Tse talks about this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOprRhOo80Q&t=160s&ab_channel=Cardstack
