In this episode of Deeply Intents C-Node and I talk about his journey through crypto from Ethereum to MPC research to Solana and eventually Cosmos (Celestia). We discuss C-Node's twitter lore, his research on based rollups and profitable censorship MEV. We talk about regulatory arbitrage, stable coins, subjectivocracy, hard forks, L2 bridge hacks, building on permissionless systems, rollup governance, and recursive proofs of consensus history.
