Episode notes

The key to building profitable businesses is to initially operate at a high burn rate, incurring losses while rapidly expanding. This approach can be seen in the experiences of successful companies like Tesla, which took a long time to become profitable but eventually achieved success with the Model 3. Similarly, in the context of blockchains, particularly Ethereum, there is an opportunity to leverage the high margins and work towards profitability as network traffic increases and inflation decreases over time.

Logan Jastremski, Co-founder of Frictionless Capital, sits down for an in-person podcast with Tommy to discuss scaling solutions for high throughput blockchains. They dive into integrated chains like Solana versus modular approaches like Celestia, balancing decentralization and performance, Layer 2 rollups, the differences between downtime and reorgs, and more. Logan breaks down his views from a first principles perspective and where he thinks the infrastructure is heading long-term.

Join them as they unravel the future of high throughput blockchains through an enlightening exchange of ideas and expert analysis.
