Welcome to the Deco podcast, where we bring you stories from founders and investors in Web three. Before we get started, this is not a financial or legal advice. It's just a conversation about things we find interesting in Web three. Views expressed are our own personal opinions. The co members or guests appearing on the show may have positions on assets they talk about. Alright. Welcome to another episode. Today, I have with me Avniya. He is a cofounder at Kinetic, which is a native LST protocol on HyperLiquid. What is all that? I think we'll talk about that. We'll talk about broad buckets. W
you very much for having me.
Alright. Let's start with the launch. Right? I mean, just four days away. How are things panning out?
Yeah. Very well. The reception has been really humbling, to be honest. We've been excited about it for quite some time. I'm not sure if I've ever publicly stated, but Inetik has been in development for close to ten months now, if not slightly longer. So, yeah, I mean, it's obviously pretty surreal, but we couldn't be more excited. And, thankfully, you know, users of the protocol couldn't be more excited either.

There's been, like, you know, over a $150,000,000 in the first twenty four hours, a subsequent, like, $90,000,000 followi
Makes sense. So you mentioned that you've been building on Hyper Liquid, like, May 23. Right? So what was your thesis then? How has the thesis evolved since then?
