Kain Warwick, founder of Synthetix, and Kyle Samani, managing partner at Multicoin Capital, debate the merits of Ethereum, Solana, and Binance Smart Chain. In this episode, they discuss:
● why Ethereum is losing market share to Solana and BSC
● whether decentralization matters and at what point decentralization becomes redundant
● why they think Solana and Binance Smart Chain need to be taken seriously as competitors to EThereum
● whether BSC or Solana is the bigger long-term threat to Ethereum
the biggest obstacle to Ethereum’s success (and it’s not gas fees)
● how Ethereum will navigate fragmented Layer 2 solutions
● Solana and its lack of developers
● what differentiates DeFi from CeFi
● why Solana has an edge on Ethereum in terms of composability
● how Ethereum will onboard new users
● why Kain is such an ardent backer of Ethereum
● why both Kyle and Kain think EIP 1559 and the potential for higher ETH prices is bad for Ethereum
● if Synthetix would ever consider launching a cross-chain product
the viability of a multi-chain world
● why Kyle believes the future holds a winner-take-most blockchain ecosystem
