L2s, Apps, and Stake Centralization With 0xMert 

Welcome back to The Gwart Show! We we’re down in Nashville recording some shows, but this week we have something a bit different with Mert, CEO of Helius and co-host of a BlockWorks podcast. So, it’s a podcast with a podcaster today. We go through Solana’s ecosystem, including MEV and architecture. Mert shares insights on Fire Dancer, state compression and Helius, while addressing criticisms and challenges.

👋The Gwart Show is proudly presented by Ellipsis Labs! Ellipsis Labs is building foundational products in DeFi. Their first product @PhoenixTrade is the leading orderbook DEX on Solana. The team is growing—visit ellipsislabs.xyz for engineering opportunities.
