We're starting 2024 off with a bang as Jesse Pollak joins us for episode 21 of ZEROPOD! Jesse is a longtime Coinbase alum and leads the team for their Ethereum L2, BASE.
On this episode, Toady Hawk and Benbodhi from TNS ask Jesse about his crypto journey, his thoughts on the recent BTC EFT approval, and about his vision for the future of BASE. They also talk about some of most interesting projects currently being built on BASE, and about our upcoming Yellow Collective launch (going live on January 18 at basedandyellow.xyz.) And of course, Nouns and the common culture that connects many Ethereum native organizations.
This was a fascinating conversation with one of the top contributors in the Ethereum space-- we hope you enjoy! (And if you do, please Like, Comment and Subscribe!)
