And what we talk about instead is the meaning of, like, what your application is bringing to people and, like, why it's a great product. We don't talk about, like, Netflix's CDN architecture. We just don't. We just use Netflix because it's great. The same sort of thing will happen with crypto, and we need to move past, like, the TPS era and, like, all this fighting about infrastructure things. And instead just as soon as it's readily available by anybody, I think that will help us move past that because, like, the differentiator of an ecosystem being, like, some sort of particular primitive or
everyone. This episode is brought to you by Uniswap Labs, who's launching the largest bug bounty program in the entire history of crypto. It's a $15,500,000 program.

So excited to, chat live with you here about your new project, which we're gonna dig very deeply into, and I'm super pumped about that. Before I get into the weeds, just gotta do a quick shout out to our sponsor, Aave. Many of you know them. They are the largest bar line protocol in, in crypto. They've got 20,000,000,000 in TVL.

Patrick, we got a lot of ground to cover here, and I'm sure many folks know you in the crypto ecosy
Yeah. I, you know, I've been fortunate to be in crypto for for some time now. Like, you know, I don't I'm still still young, but, my entire career so far has been focused on integrating with blockchains, like building blockchains or helping people build on blockchains. I'm originally from Wisconsin, and I'm like Olaf. I I didn't hear about Bitcoin in the Midwest as much as I wish I would have. I guess I was in, you know, the Wisconsin echo chamber there. Mhmm. But I heard about it when I first came out to school in California and and have really been focused on it, ever since. So, after school
I'm super excited as well. And, you know, we were chatting about this, yeah, before the podcast. I I would actually love for you to I I think, you know, lots of people might not be as familiar with, Avalanche's tech, which is extremely, extremely strong, in no small part thanks to you. And, yeah, I've always bucketed, Cosmos and Avalanche as being relatively similar, just sort of having this vision of many different chains that need some sort of common connective tissue. There's an interop component there. There's, like, a standards component there. And so could you just tell us a little bit a
Yeah. So, I mean, I think of, I always thought about Cosmos and Polkadot, at least at this time. So this was in, like, 2021 when I originally went over there On, basically, like, different ends of the spectrum. So you have cosmos, which is, like, everyone's on their own, and then you have this, like, really elegant way for them to like, different zones to interact with each other, which is IPC. The whole idea is that zones are not, like, validators of other zones. Instead, what they do is they're li
