187 - The Ethereum Attestation Service

Today on the show we welcome back Sandeep and Mihalo, the Co-Founders of Polygon. 
 Polygon is one of the most used chains in crypto. That in itself is a massive accomplishment. However, there’s been criticism of Polygon in the past, that it’s “just a sidechain.” That it’s not “Ethereum aligned.” The release of Polygon 2.0 will silence these critics. Tune in to understand why.

DEBRIEF - Worldcoin

It's ETHCC time, the Ethereum Community Conference where groundbreaking announcements are made. And ahead of the conference, Uniswap Labs has already released their latest protocol, Uniswap X, a game-changing addition to the Uniswap ecosystem. Uniswap X is the missing piece that makes Uniswap the ultimate destination for token swappers.
 In this episode, we have Hayden Adams, the creator of Uniswap, revealing the ins and outs of Uniswap X. This protocol ensures competitive order execution in DeFi, safeguarding swappers from MEV extractors, arbitrageurs, and front runners, so that everyday users can secure the best possible deals. 
 Discover how Uniswap X employs a Dutch auction to maximize returns, while reducing bridge risks and enhancing efficiency in DeFi trading.

UniswapX Revealed: A Game-Changer for DeFi

Nothing tests your conviction like a bear market. This is an opportunity to test what you think you know, refine your thesis, and make your bets for the next leg up.
 Avichal and Sanjay are long time crypto investors and at VC fund electric capital. What are they betting on during the bear market?
 We discuss 5 of the most pressing questions facing crypto investors during the bear market including…
 1) L2 tokens - Are L2 tokens they worth something or they just worthless governance tokens?
 2) AltL1s…Will the ETH killers make a comeback?
 3) Multichain world - Millions of L2 chains or a few big winners?
 4) Restaking - big deal or overhyped?
 5) What Avichal things are this cycle’s alt-coins.
 Episodes like this are an opportunity to sharpen your insights as a crypto investor. Don’t take these ideas as gospel. Wrestle with them. Test them. Make them your own. We’ll have other Bear Market Bets episodes with other perspectives, so this isn’t the last.

How Ripple's Win Reshapes Crypto with Paul Grewal & Mike Selig

Welcome to Bankless, where we explore the frontier of internet money and internet finance. In this 8-episode series, we are exploring some new frontiers. New frontiers in new technologies, all of which are poised to completely revolutionize the world and change everything about the operating system that society is currently running.
 Synthetic biology is a fascinating field that combines biology, engineering, and computer science to design and construct new biological systems. By manipulating and reprogramming the DNA of living organisms, scientists can create new functions and traits that do not occur naturally. It's like rewriting the instruction manual of life itself, similar to how we write computer code.
 In this video, you'll hear from three leaders in the synthetic biology industry—Drew Endy, John Cumbers, and Jennifer Holmgren—who will expand our understanding and imagination of this exciting field.
 Keep an eye out as we roll out the rest of these boundary-pushing episodes!
