Balancing Decentralization and Performance in Trading

This week, we’re joined by the founder of Hibachi.xyz to explore the shifting landscape of crypto trading. We dig into trustless infrastructure, what makes proof of solvency so critical, and how new tech is pushing DeFi closer to CEX-level speed and UX. We also get into the role of platforms like RISC Zero, Celestia, and Base—and what’s ahead for cross-chain liquidity and market structure.

We address questions like: 

1. What inspired the creation of Hibachi, and what gap in the market are you solving? 
2. Centralized exchanges still dominate trading volumes. What are the biggest challenges in shifting traders toward provable, trustless platforms? 
3. Speed and UX have been major blockers for DeFi adoption—how does Hibachi match or surpass the performance of traditional CEXs while maintaining decentralization?
4.  You’re leveraging technologies like RISC Zero and Celestia—can you break down how they enhance security and scalability for Hibachi? 
5. Multi-chain support is on your roadmap—how will Hibachi integrate with different ecosystems, and what challenges come with cross-chain liquidity?
6. Where are we in this market cycle, and where do you see us going from here?
