In this episode, Jesse Pollak, Base builder #001, joined us to discuss the creation of Base, maintaining a consistent UX on Base, and Base sequencers vs other L2s! We also dove into the importance of decentralizing Base, how the team is thinking about Parallelized EVMs, and their consumer focussed approach. Finally, we closed out by asking Jesse how he is thinking about the next five years.
Thanks for tuning in!
