Episode notes

Solana in my opinion would work better as a layer two, but look it depends on what you want Solana to be now Obviously Anna totally and like the core Solana community. But I don't think the Solana chain as it exists today is going to be an eth L2. There are certain apps that they're trying to build that aren't necessarily possible on Ethereum at least layer one or another. If anyone can pull it off polygon definitely up there in terms of being able to pull it off in my opinion.
