Steven Goldfeder is back on the podcast today to discuss Arbitrum’s and all Ethereum L2 FUD.
Is a win for Arbitrum also a win for Ethereum, or is Arbitrum competing for users and liquidity? Steven addresses governance concerns and discusses the decentralization of Arbitrum’s Sequencer.
In the second half of the show, we get into the latest developments in the Arbitrum ecosystem, including Stylus, Bold, Orbit, and Timeboost.
