Bitcoin remains an untapped source of net-new liquidity that could be injected into DeFi. This would completely reshape Bitcoin's utilization from a mere store of value to a liquid asset that can be ported cross-chain and traded like a liquid staking derivative.

Apart from incentivising market participants to secure the network through inflationary rewards, many consider staking as an equivalent of stock dividend yield. As a result, although Bitcoin is regarded as digital gold, protocols are looking for ways to increase its utilisation in DeFi and, ultimately, generate yield. Nowadays, while newer networks are struggling to attract investors and sustain a healthy, decentralised validator set, more established blockchains capture the lion's share of PoS actors. However, in a constant race for profit basis points, centralised consolidation of stakers seems inevitable. Join us for a fascinating discussion on the staking landscape and the challenges it may present to decentralisation.Topics covered in this episode:Increasing BTC utilization through BTC yieldLooping yield productsThe maturation of the staking marketChorus One staking portfolioHow to prevent staking consolidationRetail vs. institutional-grade operatorsSymbiotic, Eigenlayer & restaking yieldEpisode links:Mirko Schmiedl on XTobias Jung on XStaking Rewards on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

In this episode I hosted Chaofan from Solayer - I learned something new about Solana validators in this episode! Dive in and learn about how Solayer scales, how it works on sandwiching, and how they view talents. Show Notes:Your background and journey to SolayerIs it possible to run the same thing on Ethereum with Solayer's approach? Compare the technical approach of Eigenlayer with Solayer?In your 2025 roadmap, why did you decide to expand from a restaking protocol to a hardware accelerated SVM Chain? How does the end user experience look like?  What other blockchains, from a technical standpoint, would you compare and contrast yourself with? Do you consider yourself an L1 or L2, or does this differentiation matter?How does Solayer push 1M TPS state sync efficiently to thousands of nodes It is mentioned that solayer made use of state of the art AI technologies in accelerating the chain. Can you tell us more about it?Users are sandwiched while trading on Solana with some losing millions of dollars. What's your view on this and how does Solayer plan to address this problem?How does this roadmap tie to the issuance and circulation of sUSD and sSOL? What's your personal take on SIMD-228? Why did you guys decide to sell 10% of your SIMD-0228 vote on Meteora?Why do you guys do quite a bit lot of “public good” works that may not necessarily directly benefit Solayer? For example trying to save the fund that 1inch's MM got hacked and in some other cases you tried to publish the details of security incidentsI saw that you are hiring a security researcher for 1MM a year. Is that real?

Welcome to web3 with a16z. Today we're talking about a founder's journey from academia to the tech startup world — and the many lessons he's learned along the way. We dig into big ideas, like what people mean when they call blockchains "truth machines." We also share practical advice and insights, like how to go about deciding on your life's work; what you can do to keep increasing — and compounding — your leverage; plus, how a bungled interview question can change your life.Today's episode features a conversation between Eigen Labs Founder Sreeram Kannan, formerly an associate professor at the University of Washington where he led its Blockchain Lab, and a16z crypto General Partner Ali Yahya. This conversation originally took place in the fall at our CSX crypto startup accelerator in New York.

ZK needs decentralized proving networks, or we're just moving trust to a new bottleneck.Same goes for L2s.In today's episode, we cover how EigenLayer attempts to create a new way to coordinate decentralized proving networks so no single entity controls the backbone of ZK systems.We sit down with zkSync co-inventor, Alex Gluchowski and EigenLayer founder, Sreeram to cover how modular scaling works, why decentralizing proof generation matters, what this means for DeFi builders wanting flexibility without sacrificing security, and more.This conversation drills into modular design and the future of verifiable computation.Join The Rollup Edge: https://members.therollup.coWebsite: https://therollup.co/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1P6ZeYd..Podcast: https://therollup.co/category/podcastFollow us on X: https://www.x.com/therollupcoFollow Rob on X: https://www.x.com/robbie_rollupFollow Andy on X: https://www.x.com/ayyyeandyJoin our TG group: https://t.me/+8ARkR_YZixE5YjBhThe Rollup Disclosures: https://therollup.co/the-rollup-discl

The 2024 Developer Report from Electric Capital reveals many shifting dynamics. For starters, for the first time in eight years, Ethereum was not the top chain for new developers—Solana was. Meanwhile, Asia has emerged as the leading hub for crypto development, taking the top spot from North America, which dropped to third. In this episode, General Partner Maria Shen explores how Ethereum's Layer 2 solutions are bolstering its position despite fierce competition, why the Bitcoin developer ecosystem remains steadfast, and how emerging projects like EigenLayer are capturing builders' attention.  She also delves into the top crypto technologies that are fascinating devs, and how their usage and development activity differ across the globe.  Show highlights: Maria's top takeaways from the report Whether the developer migration from the U.S. will stop under a friendlier regulatory environment How Ethereum has maintained its dominance despite its high fees and the rise of Solana  What the steadiness of the Bitcoin developer ecosystem shows Which other smaller ecosystems are growing the most  How ZK contract usage has been increasing over time Why, despite what one could think, NFT minting activity is higher than ever How stablecoin usage differs from token to token and also across countries Visit our website for breaking news, analysis, op-eds, articles to learn about crypto, and much more: unchainedcrypto.com Thank you to our sponsors!
