Welcome back to the Gwart Show! Today we are joined by James Prestwich, a OG Ethereum engineer and leader of @init4tech, an Ethereum research group. On the show, we dive back into Ethereum’s plight, beginning with the fundamentals. We start with a review of Ethereum’s origins, James’ mental model for ETH, why PBS is broken (and was from the start), if Rollups work and how we skipped sharding, Vitalik and more Vitalik, and what Solana really means for Ethereum.
