For this week’s Tuesday episode where we chat with a web3 expert, we’re playing a recording of our discussion live on stage with Anatoly Yakovenko, co-founder of the Solana blockchain, at TechCrunch Disrupt. We chatted with Yakovenko about:

• Solana’s plans to launch a web3-focused smartphone and whether it can take on tech giants Apple and Google in mobile
• The lack of women in the web3 space and what blockchain leaders could (and should) be doing to fix that
• Whether Yakovenko is more afraid of competition from new layer-one upstarts or incumbent market leaders such as Ethereum
