Ethereum's transition from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake created a unique set of conditions (i.e. lack of protocol-level delegation, 32 ETH requirement, long exit queues, etc.) that led to Lido's liquid staking model to gain huge traction, significantly eclipsing other LSD providers on native PoS chains. stETH added on-demand liquidity, bypassing withdrawal windows, while also increasing DeFi utilization and increasing yields. Moreover, by allowing users to stake any amount of ETH in pools, it removed the requirement for 32 ETH increments, ultimately improving decentralisation through long tail distribution of individual stakers. Lido V3 introduces modular stVaults which enable staking customization. This allows professional actors, such as institutional stakers, to have granular control over validators, MEV and other parameters, diversifying their investment strategies.Topics covered in this episode:Hasu's backgroundDiscovering LidoLiquid staking and the early days of LidoWhy liquid staking gained traction on EthereumThe evolution of LidoInitial decentralisation concerns and the importance of dual governanceRestakingLido V3 and vaultsInstitutional staking & ETFsEthereum's ‘crisis' and its valuesEpisode links:Hasu on XLido on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Marko Tarman has been mining Bitcoin since 2012 – and today, he works as Lead Mining Manager at NiceHash. In this episode, we talk about the current trends in Proof of Work mining and the commodification of hash rate.

Bitcoin's security and reliability as a store of value are undeniable. However, its liquidity remained untapped for too long due to a lack of trustless bridges and native smart contract capabilities. As BTC is only native to Bitcoin's L1, any attempt to include it in DeFi relies on the trust assumptions of third party custodians that wrap it. Build On Bitcoin (BOB) aims to expand Bitcoin's functionality by integrating it with Ethereum's smart contract capabilities. BOB operates as an OP Stack L2 with a hybrid design incorporating ZKPs, Bitcoin staking, and Ethereum for data availability. By functioning as a rollup, BOB processes transactions off-chain and batches them for settlement on Bitcoin and Ethereum, significantly improving transaction speed and reducing costs compared to Bitcoin's base layer.Topics covered in this episode:Alexei's backgroundSetbacks for Bitcoin DeFiBitcoin bridgesBitVMBOB operators and trust assumptionsBOB architecture & Bitcoin stakingBitcoin LSTsThe future of Bitcoin DeFiEpisode links:Alexei Zamyatin on XBuild on Bitcoin on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Launched on January 3rd 2019, a whole decade after Bitcoin, Beam is the first MimbleWimble implementation to hit the markets. Unlike its smiley cousin Grin, Beam is organized more like a start-up, was more efficient in raising VC funding, and appears to focus more on smart contracts and interoperability with other chains. In this episode, Beam CTO Alex Romanov explains everything about the network: what it is, how it works, and what it aims to accomplish with the MimbleWimble technology.

Throughout the years, there were many attempts of tapping into Bitcoin's liquidity and security, but almost all of them came with different caveats. Most notably, wrapped BTC (wBTC) depended on the wrapper contract security. However, the recent surge in research and development for native solutions has led to breakthroughs previously thought impossible. Babylon launched native BTC staking and plans to further expand this to secure other blockchains, in a model similar to that of mesh security. This would not only help secure other networks, but it would also unlock liquidity from the mother chain through liquid staking derivatives.Topics covered in this episode:David's backgroundThe evolution of BabylonThe Bitcoin RenaissanceTechnical challenges of implementing Bitcoin stakingThe OP_CAT upgradeBabylon's Bitcoin staking & Bitcoin-secured networksBridging liquidity & LSTsSecuring multiple chains and slashingBabylon chain - aggregating Bitcoin-secured networksCould Bitcoin become a POS chain?Babylon upgradeabilityEpisode links:David Tse on XBabylon on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Bitcoin's lack of native programmability, coupled with advancements in zero knowledge cryptography, has led to rollups being explored as a substitute for an execution layer. Citrea's approach involves using Bitcoin as a data availability & settlement layer for their zero knowledge rollup. These rollups not only lower transaction costs, but they also enable smart contracts to use Bitcoin's L1 security and further incentivise miners to secure the chain despite halving rewards. In order to inherit Bitcoin's security, zk proofs are inscribed in Bitcoin blocks.Topics covered in this episode:Orkun's backgroundInscriptions, BitVM and zk rollups on BitcoinOptimistic bridgingSequencerProgrammability solutions on BitcoinBitVM developmentCitrea ecosystem developmentcBTC vs. custodial wrapped BTCThere is no second best!PoW, halving block rewards and how rollups incentivise minersCitrea's efficiency & fee reductionBitcoin as an inflation hedgeEpisode links:Orkun Mahir Kilic on TwitterCitrea on TwitterBitVMSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Follow Charlie on X: @cbspears Follow Donny on X: @itsdonnyok Follow Jake on X: @jakeblockchain This Bitcoin Weekly Kickback episode covers various topics related to proof of work and mining. It starts with a discussion about a project called the Rats, which involves inscribing rat-related things onto an inscription. The conversation then moves on to the effectiveness of proof of work for new chains and the challenges they face in competing with Bitcoin. The hosts express skepticism about the success of new proof of work networks and highlight the path dependency and adoption challenges they face. They also discuss the Bitax pleb mining initiative and its potential to contribute to the decentralization of mining. The conversation covers various topics including the potential of Bitcoin mining as a home-centric activity, the role of Nostra as a social media platform, and the concept of micro-payments. The hosts discuss the implications of pleb mining and how it can lead to a better understanding of Bitcoin. They also explore the challenges and potential centralization of Nostra as a social media platform. Additionally, they touch on the idea of streaming Satoshis and the importance of micro-payments. The conversation concludes with a brief mention of Magic Eden and its token launch.

As the crypto industry matures, more sophisticated market participants become involved. As a result, risk management and hedging will evolve to levels seen in TradFi. However, regardless of the preferred market activity, when interacting with a blockchain, every actor competes for the same limited blockspace. Based on demand levels, the cost for securing that blockspace can fluctuate (in the form of miner fees for Bitcoin transactions, or gas fees for PoS blockchains). Therefore, a particular niche of power users could lower these costs by reserving blockspace in advance of elevated demand levels. Alkimiya set out to build just that - a marketplace for blockspace.Topics covered in this episode:Leo's backgroundThe vision behind AlkimiaMarket participants for blockspaceHedging costsUse cases on EthereumProposer-Builder Separation and preconfirmationsReserving blockspacePolkadot's blockspace allocationCurrent market sentiment.

Fred Thiel is the CEO of Marathon Digital Holdings, one of the largest Bitcoin mining companies on the planet. The company holds 13,000 BTC in its corporate treasury.   Why you should listen Fred Thiel discusses the role of Bitcoin mining in balancing the grid and incentivizing renewable energy. He explains how miners can use stranded energy from solar and wind farms, benefiting both the operators and consumers. Fred also addresses the narrative shift towards recognizing Bitcoin's positive impact on renewable energy sources. The conversation then shifts to the potential approval of Bitcoin ETFs by institutions like BlackRock, Fidelity, and Vanguard. Fred shares his perspective on the likelihood of these approvals happening and highlights the growing separation between Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in terms of narrative and risk profiles.  Fred emphasizes Marathon's preparedness for the upcoming Bitcoin halving, regardless of whether prices go up or down, due to their reserves and efficient mining operations.  Supporting links Coinsbee Marathon Digital Holdings Andy on Twitter  Brave New Coin on Twitter Brave New Coin   If you enjoyed the show please subscribe to the Crypto Conversation and give us a 5-star rating and a positive review in whatever podcast app you are using.
