We have with us Brother Bing aka Shuao. She is the cofounder of Megaheath, and she also does everything that is not technical at Megaheath. S
guys. Hello, Saurabh. Also, hello, Salga. I was the amazing editor. Glad to be here. Excited to share stories. My name is Brother Bing. You can also call me Shuriya, Da Bing, Bing Bing. I am the, smallest brain in the mega team. That's why I handle business. My Google Brain cofounders actually produce the chain. Awesome.
So, typically, we start with what people used to do before crypto, but since you've already spent some time in crypto, let's start with what your journey has been until Mega Aid, and what led you to start Mega Aid? Absolutely.
Yeah. So I joined crypto in 2017 as a lot of people who joined during the ICO boom. Right? And my story was probably slightly different from others. I was born and raised in China then went to The States for college. And, when I was in The US, you know, there was this thing about American dream and, you know, every Chinese would want to find a really good job and stay in The US. I'm old. So it was, like, fourteen years ago. I had a return offer to be a consultant in one of the big attack companies, but I thought, oh my god. It's her American dream is to turn people into an MPC. Right? Because

Anyone who's listening who wants to go to business school, please DM me on Twitter. I will try my best to persuade you not to. So, yeah, so this whole m p I had this hunch. Right? American dream is to make you an MPC. So I didn't wanna stay in The US. And then I was looking at the world map. I was like, you know, where can I go? So I was born, raised in Asia. During college, I was lucky enough to, study and work a little bit in Europe, in Denmark, and also in India. I int
Awesome. I remember I was not into crypto full time, but I had a friend who, you know, like, bro, they are going to put Uber on block, say that, and all of those things. Right?

So when I was at consensus, I actually worked with all the major protocols, and it's not just Ethereum. Right? I want to as a global head of BD, I had to understand what's happening in the crypto space. And I think that's the most important skill set for anyone who's doing business development marketing. You must be ahead of the curve. You must know things happening before they blow up. So a lot of my job back in twenty twenty twenty one when Ethereum hits the scaling limit was to look at all the blockchains. So, you know, I helped ConsenSys to close a bunch of deals with the layer two, so I w
So I think there are multiple directions. I mean, there were pop ups in my head, but I'll stick with this. I want to double click a little on the consensus bit that you mentioned. Right? That bec
