The post-EIP-4844 battle between Ethereum, Celestia, Avail and EigenDA excites me more than the current Champions League season.
Interoperability between chains is one of the most interesting challenges for the blockchain industry. It seems that we now have enough blockspace and fast transaction speed. Now we need to solve the problems with transferring goddamn USDT from Arbitrum to Optimism.

Olaf Carlson Wee was asked on one of the podcasts, 'What is obvious to him?' He said we'll definetely see high-quality crypto games that will grow faster than anything the world has ever seen. I really waiting for that.
The funny thing is, while we're debating about custody vs. non-custody, many people simply buy stablecoins at some "offline exchanges". You just go to an offline office, give money to the person there, and they send your USDT to the person you've chosen.
I know many people globally, especially from Eastern Europe, Turkey and the Caucasus, who frequently use stablecoins. I asked if they know which blockchain these stablecoins use. They don’t. They're unaware of what a blockchain is. They just know to choose TRX before sending and magic happens.
I like the rollercoasters of attention that crypto products receive. When crypto achieves product-market fit, people who were skeptical and criticized it start to take new products for granted. And the funny thing is, they may not even realize there's a blockchain running under the hood.
We often discuss AI and NFT collaborations. I see AI not just as an aid in NFT creation but as an antagonist. While NFTs verify ownership, AI enables the exact opposite. Together, these two seemingly opposing forces will work in unexpected synergy.
