Jon Kol, founder of Hyperlane, joins Sam Kamani to dive deep into one of crypto's biggest challenges—interoperability. From his days at Morgan Stanley to building Hyperlane, Jon shares how they're enabling any chain to communicate with any other through permissionless, modular frameworks. He explains why monolithic architectures can't scale, how modular security flips the bridge security model, and why interchain accounts will redefine how users interact with Web3. If you're building across chains, this episode is a must-listen.Key Timestamps[00:00:00] Introduction: Sam introduces Jon Kol and the mission of Hyperlane—interoperability for every chain.[00:01:00] Early Crypto Days: Jon shares his Bitcoin and Ethereum rabbit hole moment at Morgan Stanley.[00:03:00] From Wall Street to Web3: Why he left traditional finance to help rebuild the internet of value.[00:06:00] Why Hyperlane: The realization that one chain can't serve global finance—and the need for scalable communication.[00:08:00] Building Blocks: The philosophy behind Hyperlane and how it differs from LayerZero, Cosmos, etc.[00:10:00] Modular Interoperability: Any chain, any VM—Hyperlane can connect them all.[00:12:00] Security First: How Hyperlane's modular security avoids the “one breach risks all” trap.[00:14:00] Defense in Depth: Let developers stack their own security modules and future-proof integrations.[00:18:00] Use Cases: From DeFi bridges to governance, interchain AMMs, and yield routing via Superform.[00:22:00] Interchain Accounts: Why the future is one wallet, infinite access—regardless of chain or VM.[00:26:00] The Stablecoin Pain Point: Fragmentation across chains and the case for gasless, one-click stablecoin transfers.[00:30:00] Lessons Learned: What Jon would do differently—don't wait for others, build use cases in-house.[00:34:00] 2025 Vision: Interoperability becomes invisible—users stay on one chain, access anything cross-chain.[00:36:00] The Ask: Hyperlane is hiring builders who want to fix fragmentation and unlock Web3's next layer.Connecthttps://hyperlane.xyz/https://x.com/hyperlanehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jon-kol-4bb37a9b/https://x.com/thepalenimbusDisclaimerNothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research.

Welcome to web3 with a16z. Today we explore the messy secrets of blockchain bridges. These cross-chain connectors are the go-betweens in today's multichain world, but their short history has been a checkered one, with prominent projects succumbing to major hacks and other hijinks.So we've brought on one of the builders who knows this world best to help disentangle the messiness. That's Bryan Pellegrino, cofounder and CEO of LayerZero Labs, maker of a popular blockchain interoperability protocol. In this episode, Bryan delivers a crash course on the evolution of bridges, including the ups and downs of various approaches. You'll also learn about the technology's inner workings, its applications, and how it fits in with ongoing efforts to scale blockchains.Joining is a16z crypto general partner Ali Yahya, who is also an expert in this area; plus me, your cohost, Robert Hackett.

Many in the world of DeFi have heard about and rely on oracles like Chainlink and Pyth Network for their trusted data feeds, but there is a new protocol that has enshrined oracles directly into it's EVM Layer 1 Blockchain.  In this episode Ian Andrews (CMO, Chainalysis) speaks with Co-founder and CEO of Flare Network, Hugo Philion. Hugo shares his transition from hedge fund trading to blockchain and emphasizes the increasing need for decentralized data in an industry that heavily relies on information from data providers. He breaks down Flare's architecture, offering cost-effective and secure data oracles, while being sure to differentiate their solution from existing systems that are vulnerable due to lack of decentralization and potential for collusion. Hugo even explains how KYC and AML can be integrated by the developers building on Flare and how important regulation is to move the industry forward.  Minute-by-minute episode breakdown 2 | Hugo's journey from hedge funds, skipping AI and ML to get into crypto  5 | Why Flare decided to build a L1 platform with enshrined oracles 8 | Examining why data in the crypto landscape is fundamentally broken 12 | What are enshrined oracles and why are they important? 17 | Introducing LayerZero and the solution to cross-chain interoperability issues 20 | Flare use cases with decentralized exchanges and DeFi projects 24 | Exploring huge oracle failures and lack of data providers in the industry  29 | The emergence of regulation, KYC and AML in a decentralized crypto ecosystem   32 | Flare announced new Flare Data Connector solution  Related resources Check out more resources provided by Chainalysis that perfectly complement this episode of the Public Key.

sync or async? Bryan Pellegrino founder of Layer Zero Labs weighs in on the standards for intra-blockchain communication. Listen here:

Join Matt and Nick as they discuss the SEC closing its investigation into the initial sales of ETH; Germany selling its large Bitcoin holdings; altcoin updates; and more.Key Takeaways Prices have continued falling amid market conditions with very few new buyers. These types of pullbacks are consistent with all past crypto bull markets, and we still expect prices to be much higher by year-end.Consensys said the SEC "would not bring charges alleging that sales of ETH are securities transactions." A significant concession by the SEC, potentially reflecting a shift in positioning towards crypto.The German government has been selling some of its BTC holdings. It still owns slightly less than 47,000 BTC (≈$2.9B). If the sales continue, it may drive BTC's price lower in the short term. Long term, these sales are meaningless.Among the altcoin updates covered: LayerZero's controversial token launch, Lens' migration to ZKsync, and Jupiter's proposed token supply decrease.

LayerZero's token claims went live on Thursday, and as with every recent airdrop, there was plenty of controversy. In this episode, Bryan Pellegrino, cofounder and CEO of LayerZero Labs, joined to discuss their ambitious anti-Sybil campaign and the subsequent token distribution. He delved into the challenges of ensuring genuine user participation, the decision to offer a self-report option for Sybil attackers, and the complexities imposed by industrial-grade farmers. Bryan shared what he would have done differently and why a mandatory donation to Protocol Guild was imposed. Also, are airdrops dead? How can the industry improve this not-so-effective distribution method?  Show highlights: 00:00 Intro 01:23 Why LayerZero launched an anti-Sybil campaign with its airdrop, and what challenges they faced in ensuring genuine user participation 04:51 Why LayerZero offered a self-report option for Sybil attackers, and how this strategy revealed both the complexities and the creativity within the crypto community 10:16 How the anti-Sybil campaign uncovered over a million fraudulent accounts 14:34 What Bryan would have done differently in their campaign 17:18 What alternative methods, such as KYC and proof-of-humanity protocols, LayerZero could have used for their anti-Sybil campaign 18:35How LayerZero navigated the cat-and-mouse game with industrial airdrop farmers 23:08 Why they decided to impose a donation to Protocol Guild to claim the ZRO token 32:07 What caused the dramatic drop in LayerZero's activity post-announcement of their anti-Sybil campaign, and why the team is optimistic despite the decline 35:23 LayerZero's plans for future airdrops  38:40 What Bryan thinks the future holds for airdrops in crypto, and how the current broken system can be improved to achieve better distribution and user engagement 42:43 Crypto News Recap Visit our website for breaking news, analysis, op-eds, articles to learn about crypto, and much more: unchainedcrypto.com Thank you to our sponsors! iTrustCapital Polkadot Guest Bryan Pellegrino, cofounder and CEO of LayerZero Labs Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to The Chopping Block – where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest news. This week, the gang sits down with guest Nic Carter of Castle Island Ventures, whose tweet thread pushed the Wall Street Journal to correct its story that Hamas had raised tens of millions in crypto. Carter discusses the challenges in tracking how much crypto Hamas has actually received, the declining prospects for Sam Bankman-Fried's acquittal, and ongoing dramas surrounding staking protocol Lido and decentralized exchange dYdX.   Show highlights:  Why the cross-examination has not gone well for Sam Bankman-Fried how the Wall Street Journal misinterpreted data and may have overstated the amount of crypto donations flowing to Hamas for terrorist activities  why it's difficult to pinpoint how much funding Hamas has raised in crypto donations how extensive crypto funding for terrorists is believable to many outside observers of the industry, even recently some of its supporters in Congress, but does not reflect reality Why Hamas has decided on its own to stop trying to raise funds in crypto how Lido is upset at the way Layer Zero has pre-marketed its bridge why dYdX's pivot to decentralization with fees going into its token is a positive development but does not give the protocol the moral high ground to attack erstwhile competitors such as UniSwap.
