Bankless

<p>On today's State of the Nation, it's time to bring back the crypto legal mind of Jake Chervinsky.

What can we do to help advocate for digital justice? As always, Jake brings a thoughtful and measured approach to these crucial topics.</p> <p>------<br /> Chainlink | Register for SmartCon 2022 with promo code “BANKLESS”<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/smartcon">https://bankless.cc/smartcon</a> </p> <p>------<br /> SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/</a> <br /> ️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: <a href= "http://podcast.banklesshq.com/">http://podcast.banklesshq.com/ </a> </p> <p>------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: </p> <p> LENS | ACCESS CODE: VITALIK<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Lens">https://bankless.cc/Lens</a> </p> <p> ROCKET POOL | ETH STAKING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/RocketPool">https://bankless.cc/RocketPool</a> </p> <p>️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum">https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum</a> </p> <p> BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Brave">https://bankless.cc/Brave</a> </p> <p> JUNO | BRIDGE FIAT TO LAYER 2<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Juno">https://bankless.cc/Juno</a> </p> <p>️ ZKSYNC | THE LAYER 2 SCALING ENDGAME<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/zkSync">https://bankless.cc/zkSync</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Jake Chervisnky:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/jchervinsky">https://twitter.com/jchervinsky</a> </p> <p>Set Alex Free:<br /> <a href= "https://setalexfree.nl/">https://setalexfree.nl/</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

<p>Stephane Gosselin is the Founder of Flashbots, an R&D organization that’s trying to fix the most pernicious problem in crypto—the problem of MEV (Maximum Extractable Value).</p> <p>Many of us are massively optimistic about crypto and aren’t worried too much about its future. However, this MEV thing could be our achilles heel.</p> <p>On this episode, we dive into what Stephane and his team are doing to make MEV less of a potential weak point, how MEV works, and what our industry would look like if Flashbots didn't exist. And of course—so much more.</p> <p>This is another fundamental Bankless episode that you won’t want to miss.</p> <p>------<br /> 📣 Chainlink | Register for SmartCon 2022 with promo code “BANKLESS”<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/smartcon">https://bankless.cc/smartcon</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/</a> <br /> 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: <a href= "http://podcast.banklesshq.com/">http://podcast.banklesshq.com/</a> </p> <p>------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS:</p> <p>🌱 LENS | ACCESS CODE: MERGE (only valid for 24 hours!)<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Lens">https://bankless.cc/Lens</a> </p> <p>🚀 ROCKET POOL | ETH STAKING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/RocketPool">https://bankless.cc/RocketPool</a> </p> <p>⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum">https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum</a> </p> <p>🦁 BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Brave">https://bankless.cc/Brave</a> </p> <p>🌉 JUNO | BRIDGE FIAT TO LAYER 2<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Juno">https://bankless.cc/Juno</a> </p> <p>⚡️ ZKSYNC | THE LAYER 2 SCALING ENDGAME<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/zkSync">https://bankless.cc/zkSync</a> </p> <p>------<br /> Topics Covered:</p> <p>0:00 Intro<br /> 9:28 MEV Explained & Its Importance<br /> 13:35 The Evil Side of MEV<br /> 21:26 MEV Utopia vs. Dystopia<br /> 28:54 Competitiveness, Market Structure, Equilibrium<br /> 32:10 MEV Supply Chain Crashcourse<br /> 37:24 Timeline<br /> 38:56 Flashbots Thesis<br /> 42:31 No MEV Geth Scenario<br /> 45:15 Flashbots Continued<br /> 49:10 Solutions<br /> 51:15 MEV Boost<br /> 1:00:18 MEV Boost Adoption<br /> 1:05:10 Differences in Staking APY<br /> 1:08:20 Flashbots Incentives<br /> 1:12:57 Infinite Problems to be Solved?<br /> 1:14:35 PBS<br /> 1:17:54 Relayer Role<br /> 1:20:05 Weird MEV Potential Merge Issues?<br /> 1:22:40 Byproducts of MEV Boost<br /> 1:27:17 New Builder Market Speculation<br /> 1:31:15 Stephane’s Optimism<br /> 1:32:55 Closing & Disclaimer</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Stephane Gosselin<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/thegostep">https://twitter.com/thegostep</a> </p> <p>MEV-Boost in a Nutshell<br /> <a href= "https://boost.flashbots.net/">https://boost.flashbots.net/</a> </p> <p>Flashbots Blog Posts<br /> <a href= "https://writings.flashbots.net/writings">https://writings.flashbots.net/writings</a> </p> <p>Guide to Ethereum Roadmap<br /> <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/p/guide-to-the-ethereum-roadmap-jon#details"> https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/p/guide-to-the-ethereum-roadmap-jon#details</a> </p> <p>Ethereum’s Hidden Power Structure<br /> <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/p/125-matt-cutler#details">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/p/125-matt-cutler#details</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

<p>This conversation has been a long time coming. Polynya is a pseudonymous writer, investor, and crypto researcher. </p> <p>Polynya coined the term “modular blockchain” and has been influential on 100 different crypto topics, most notably on rollups, though they’re quick to point out that rollups are no longer their main focus. </p> <p>This is a unique episode, in which Bankless DAO’s Eureka John acts out Polynya’s voice based on a 5-hour text-based discord interview. Tune in as we explore Polynya’s fascinating mind, covering their broad crypto thesis, EIP-4844, and the future of Ethereum Scalability.</p> <p>------<br /> 📣 Forta | Help Make Web3 a Safer Place<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Forta">https://bankless.cc/Forta</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/</a> <br /> 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: <a href= "http://podcast.banklesshq.com/">http://podcast.banklesshq.com/</a> </p> <p>------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: </p> <p>🌱 LENS | ACCESS CODE: MINTME<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Lens">https://bankless.cc/Lens</a> </p> <p>🚀 ROCKET POOL | ETH STAKING<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/RocketPool">https://bankless.cc/RocketPool</a> </p> <p>⚖️ ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum">https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum</a> </p> <p>🦁 BRAVE | THE BROWSER NATIVE WALLET<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Brave">https://bankless.cc/Brave</a> </p> <p>🌉 JUNO | BRIDGE FIAT TO LAYER 2<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Juno">https://bankless.cc/Juno</a> </p> <p>⚡️ ZKSYNC | THE LAYER 2 SCALING ENDGAME<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/zkSync">https://bankless.cc/zkSync</a> </p> <p>------<br /> Topics Covered:</p> <p>0:00 Intro<br /> 9:00 Polynya the Anon<br /> 13:45 Polynya IRL<br /> 20:05 Cautious Optimism<br /> 25:35 Polynya’s Crypto Thesis<br /> 29:58 Accruing Value at the L1<br /> 31:54 Bitcoin vs Ethereum<br /> 33:30 Alt-L1s and Decentralization<br /> 35:10 Everything is Finance<br /> 38:10 Layer 2 Value Capture<br /> 41:33 Rollups vs ETH<br /> 45:30 Increasing L2 Demand<br /> 47:40 Layer 2 Tokens<br /> 52:45 A Symbiotic Relationship<br /> 56:08 Cosmos and Alt-L1s<br /> 58:45 App-Specific Chains<br /> 1:00:30 All Just Chains and Bridges<br /> 1:02:14 Why Cardano Rocks and Sucks<br /> 1:04:23 Cults and Tribalism<br /> 1:05:20 Changing Crypto<br /> 1:06:54 Changing the World<br /> 1:07:35 Polynya’s Message<br /> 1:08:30 Thank You Polynya</p> <p>------<br /> Resources:</p> <p>Polynya on Twitter:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/apolynya?s=20&t=4Cws8vmOo7v2mRmI8mGyfw">https://twitter.com/apolynya?s=20&t=4Cws8vmOo7v2mRmI8mGyfw</a> </p> <p>Polynya’s Writing:<br /> <a href= "https://polynya.medium.com/">https://polynya.medium.com/</a> </p> <p>Modular Blockchains:<br /> <a href= "https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/p/ultra-scalable-ethereum">https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/p/ultra-scalable-ethereum</a> </p> <p>Eureka John:<br /> <a href= "https://twitter.com/EurekaJohn1?s=20&t=ws5GNZKUSZtegsJQkvcuAg"> https://twitter.com/EurekaJohn1?s=20&t=ws5GNZKUSZtegsJQkvcuAg</a> </p> <p>-----<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

<p>How do DAOs go from monolithic to modular? Julia aka Julz Rosenburg has the answer. Julz is the Co-Founder of Orca Protocol, a project trying to uncomplicate coordination by mirroring human coordination. How? One word: Pods!</p> <p>In their current state, most DAOs have coordination and hierarchical problems. However, with the help of Julz and the Orca Protocol team, this won’t always be the case.</p> <p>Why are pods essential for the future of DAOs and work? What obstacles stand in the way to achieve this future? Why aren’t you pod-pilled yet?
