Show Notes

My guest today is Josh Benaron. He is the founder and CEO of Bundlr, which is an essential scaling solution for the decentralized storage network Arweave.

His story from learning to code on his own to building Bundlr at a time when Arweave would hit network capacity is fascinating!

Josh and I had a great conversation about everything decentralized storage and more:

- Introduction to Blockchain: Youtube videos for new technologies

- Bundlr one-liner: network that bridges web 2.0 and web 3.0 storage

- Bundlr working principle: more secure version of roll-ups, as no dependance on layer 2 state

- Ukraine archiving project: came to life on the back of his conversations with Sam Williams from Arweave.

- The most surprising thing in Blockchain: strong community.

- The most interesting problem to solve: not surprisingly, scaling.

- Most curious these days about: history and how hierarchies within big states worked.

Please enjoy my conversation with Josh Benaron.
