Austin King is the Co-Founder of Omni Network and CEO of Labs, the abstraction layer for the Ethereum ecosystem. With a background in computer science from Harvard, Austin began his entrepreneurial journey by creating a payment network that scaled to over 10 billion transactions before being acquired by Ripple. Today, Austin, alongside Co-Founder Tyler Tarsi, is leading Omni’s mission to empower application developers to access users and liquidity across the entire Ethereum ecosystem without smart contract upgrades.

In this conversation, we discuss:
