This week’s Unchained is my panel at Ready Layer One! We talk everything layer one with four key players and projects -- Illia Polosukhin of NEARprotocol, Zaki Manian of Cosmos, Rob Habermeier of Polkadot, and Arthur Breitman of Tezos — to find out how these projects plan to compete with Ethereum and attract developers and users. We discuss: - What platforms they are building and at which stage in development they are
- How they differentiate themselves from Ethereum, and what problems they believe need to be solved
- How they plan to attract devs in an industry of network effects
- Whether or not Bitcoin and Ethereum are direct competitors
- Whether, in the long run, crypto will be more winner-take-all or there will be multiple, interoperable chains
- How they plan to bring new users into the space
- How they think the transition to ETH2.0 will shake up the existing blockchain space
