Interface with Wijuwiju and Anna

On today’s episode, I’m joined by Wijuwiju and Anna who are building Interface, a human readable social web3 feed. At the time of recording, Interface is an iOS and Android app that lets you follow wallets and scroll through an infinite feed of their recent activity. It’s a great way to see recent swaps, mints, and transfers, and over time the team is developing richer indexing and transaction parsing, to show things like Snapshot votes, Mirror blog posts, and their most recent feature, Gnosis multisig signatures.

Anna and Wiju describe how they found their passion for decentralization, their process for fundraising and building web3 apps in public, and their long-term plans for building a sustainable public goods DAO that generates revenues for token holders. This is a great team and an episode not to be missed.
