great news on the autograph front. We are very happy to expand our team to expand some really knowledgeable people in the web3 area.

On the company's performance, Arianna Simpson said complementary at A16Z:

Autographer has really proven to be a rocket ship in the past six months. Your NFT platform offers digital experiences that inspire mainstream consumers, not just the crypto community.

Expansion in sight
