Base Layer Episode 250: Asta Li from Privy on helping the Web3 industry build delightful products

Asta Li, co-founder at Privy, joins me for a fantastic talk about the movement happening in digital assets, focused on building delightful consumer-centric products.

Privy is the easiest way for developers to onboard all users to web3, regardless of whether they already have a wallet, across mobile and desktop. At Privy, the team spends a lot of time obsessing over how to help developers unlock better UX in web3 without sacrificing the ownership primitives that make the space special. Ownership is at the root of web3, but to this day, it has been reserved for only the most technical users. For web3 to go mainstream, the industry must make it easy to bake self-custody into products: web2-caliber UX with web3 ownership and consent.

Base Layer Episode 252: Luigi D'Onorio DeMeo, Ava Labs on becoming the port of call for Gaming & Finance into blockchains

I had such a great conversation with Luigi, who heads up business development & ecosystem at Ava Labs. We discussed everything from the initial design of Avalanche to the growth of Evergreen subnets, which could lead to companies like JP Morgan, Citi, and others directly connecting on the blockchain. We also discussed their work in Gaming, with upcoming releases from Gunzilla and Off the Grid, an AAA game that is due to be available on PS5, Xbox, and other consoles. So much good stuff in here; check it out!
