**Over time, all media will likely go “onchain” to some extent.**

**That’s why in these early days, advances in new directions here offer a taste of what’s to come. A prime example?** [**This week Coinbase dropped its latest earnings report highlights as an NFT mint**](https://nft.coinbase.com/mint/coinearnings)**.**

**This crypto-native approach by Coinbase is an early showcase of NFTs, and, again, also signals a future where communications of all types will lean on blockchain tech for greater transparency and engagement.**

**That’s the future to come, and it’s closer than you think. In the meantime, though, let’s look back and catch you up on the rest of the past week’s biggest NFT happenings!**
