This episode highlights short interviews with 14 founders we met live at ETHDenver.

In this episode, we bring you live interviews from ETHDenver with a variety of founders you ought to know, building the future of DeFi and Web3. The podcast is a series of 13 short interviews. Every conference suffers from the same old talking heads headlining talks so our goal was to spotlight promising builders shipping impactful products! You'll find chapters below organized by the name of the interviewee, the protocol, and what we discussed so you can easily skip to what interests you most!

And thanks to the team at zkSync for generously hosting us in their beautiful recording space called the ZK Proof Aquereum!
