In this episode of CoinList Chats, Anatoly Yakovenko (Founder/CEO of Solana) and Kyle Samani (Co-Founder/Managing Partner of Multicoin Capital) discuss why the Solana team came together to tackle blockchain scalability, the differences between layer one and layer two scaling solutions, and how Solana has been gaining user adoption.

Solana is a layer one high-speed blockchain, currently supporting 50-65k transactions per second and 400ms block times with 50 nodes on its public testnet. Unlike other blockchain scaling solutions, Solana doesn't sacrifice decentralization, composability, and security. Additionally, Solana's Proof of History system allows the blockchain to natively scale with hardware improvements without adding complexity. 

Mainnet launch for Solana is happening alongside its Dutch auction on CoinList. For more information about Solana and its upcoming auction go here: https://coinlist.co/solana

In this episode of CoinList Chats, Andy Bromberg and Nic Carter, Partner at Castle Island Ventures, explore the history of stablecoins, their different models, how they’ve impacted crypto today, and what their future looks like.

Stablecoins are not a new idea–in fact, they predate Bitcoin. E-gold and Liberty Reserve both attempted to create sovereign, digital currencies indexed to stable assets before being shut down by regulators in the early 2010s.

While Liberty Reserve and e-gold faltered, the demand for a sovereign, digital currency indexed to a stable asset has not. Stablecoins, in their modern iterations, have become an important part of crypto and could expand the ecosystem as a whole; in the past week, it was reported that there is more value being transferred via stablecoins on top of Ethereum than the value being transferred with ETH itself.

Are current implementations of stablecoins doomed to the same fate as Liberty Reserve and e-gold or has their time finally come?

Over the last 18 months, we have seen a proliferation of so-called "Ethereum Killers" in crypto, layer–1 protocols that support smart contracts and promise to solve the issues that have emerged with Ethereum.

In this episode, Andy Bromberg, Ash Egan, and Tom Shaughnessy explore smart contract platforms in more detail, discussing what makes sense and what does not.
