Discover insights from @Spaydh on the urgent call for innovation in Cosmos, distinctions in security and chains, and Neutron's role in simplifying dApp development. Interestingly, this podcast brings back our cross-chain dApps discussion with Jose Macedo from Delphi (you can watch the previous podcast here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iih5HMgIfGE)

In this podcast, we're featuring Astar Network Founder Sota Watanabe about Astar's steps towards a multichain future. Sota shared that they're currently building XCMP, a messaging protocol that enables tokens to be truly interoperable not just within Polkadot ecosystem but also to other L0 and L1 blockchains. Sota emphasized the three important factors that make up a solid blockchain network: incentivizing developers, superior technology/product, and bootstrapping user base.

Building Cross-Chain dApps: The Next Generation of dApps with José Macedo, Partner at Delphi Digital by LongHash Ventures

Our GP Shi Khai spoke with Ethan Buchman, co-founder of Cosmos, CEO of Informal Systems, and President of the Interchain Foundation, about Atom 2.0, Cosmos’ interchain vision, and the recent Prop 82 vote.

This episode features Rebecca Liao, co-founder and CEO of Saga, a chain for launching chains.

For Web3 builders considering launching their own dedicated chains, Saga’s selling proposition is its ability to allow developers to set up their own dedicated blockchain, known as “chainlets”, as easily as deploying smart contracts, and then scale in a “pay as you go” model. Saga also aims to be interoperable beyond Cosmos ecosystem.

LongHash Ventures participated in their recently closed seed round. You can read more about why we invested in Saga here: bit.ly/3CpekMg

Zaki Manian, former director of Tendermint Labs and cofounder of Sommerlier Protocol and Iqclusion, talks about the history of Cosmos, his own projects Sommerlier and Iqclusion, and his advice to Web3 builders about the key considerations when choosing a chain.

In the final episode of our DAO Mini Series, Shi Khai speaks with Eyal Eithcowich, founder of DeepDAO, a discovery and analytics platform for DAOs.

Eyal shares how he transitioned from activism to DAOs, what qualifies to be a DAO, why voter apathy might not be as serious as you think, and finally, Eyal walks us through the DeepDAO platform and shares some insights into DAO organizational behaviour.

Coinshift Founder and CEO Tarun Gupta shares why Coinshift positions itself as a Layer 0.5, new features of Coinshift V2, and his conviction about future proofing DAOs.

He emphasized that builders should have interoperability and composability in mind as we experiment our way to a DAO-rich future.
