In this episode, we dive deep into the world of cross-chain trading with Sunny, co-founder of Osmosis, who unpacks their latest product Polaris. We then move on to explore the implications of Succinct's ZK rollup solution for Optimism and unpack Eigen DA's revealing data on blockchain capacity. The conversation then shifts to Coinbase's launch of cbBTC and its potential impact on Bitcoin in DeFi. Thanks for tuning in!
