In this episode, we dive deep into the creation of Superlane, crypto's first major move into rollup interoperability. We discuss the evolving landscape of rollup costs and solutions, examining the challenges and opportunities in launching sovereign rollups. The conversation then shifts to Celestia's recent performance upgrades and its implications for data availability. We also explore Avalanche's success with Off the Grid and what this means for crypto and gaming. Finally, we touch on the emergence of AI-driven meme coin traders and their implications for the crypto space. Thanks for tuning in!
