Episode notes

I want a race like another builde bridge to something wev already talked about, which as proposed a bilder separation. I think thait's likely that large operators, or large consortions of operators, actually become kind of m v power houses anof themselves. And the maybe interblock mmv or short range reorgs that may be having not much capital would n't centivise. But i think a large enough actor isn't centivising to do one of two things: either special relationships with such a market, where they're saying, i'm the next three proposers. Help me out,. Or to be large enough for them to not need the market

Listen to conversations between two veterans of the crypto industry: Su Zhu, CEO and CIO of Three Arrows Capital, and Hasu, Strategy lead at Flashbots. Exploring the big ideas in crypto from first principles.

In this episode, Hasu continues the conversation with Danny Ryan and Tim Beiko, two researchers from the Ethereum Foundation. The three are joined by Stephane Gosselin, co-founder of Flashbots, who makes his podcast debut and stands in as Hasu's co-host.

Together, they discuss:

MEV before and after the Merge
mev-boost and proposer-builder-separation (PBS)
The rise of liquid staking pools
Whether Lido should cap its own growth
How the Ethereum Foundation sees its role in interacting with very "protocol-adjacent" projects like Flashbots + Lido
