Bankless
Is Canton a Real Blockchain? | Canton Founder Yuval Rooz

And to be honest, it shows that you guys came prepared.

Bankless

But again, you know, we're trying to solve a very specific problem.

Bankless

And, you know, you could say that a lot of the crypto natives on X are varying.

Bankless
Is Canton a Real Blockchain? | Canton Founder Yuval Rooz

I will tell you there are some fairly large crypto native funds that are bag holders in Canton.

Bankless
Is Canton a Real Blockchain? | Canton Founder Yuval Rooz

Yeah.

And at the end of the day, the question is, do you believe that our approach, our go-to market, is capable of bringing more financial transactions on chain?

Bankless
Is Canton a Real Blockchain? | Canton Founder Yuval Rooz

You know, there's this thing in crypto that I actually find a bit interesting, which is everybody talks about how this technology is going to free us from intermediaries.

Bankless
Is Canton a Real Blockchain? | Canton Founder Yuval Rooz

Come on.

Bankless
Is Canton a Real Blockchain? | Canton Founder Yuval Rooz

That's not an honest statement.

Bankless

All that this technology is doing is creating new intermediaries.

Bankless
Is Canton a Real Blockchain? | Canton Founder Yuval Rooz

I have to say that a lot of the intermediaries that have been created in crypto are even more centralized than the ones that they're talking about removing, to be clear.

Bankless

And I'm not going to get into names.

Bankless
Is Canton a Real Blockchain? | Canton Founder Yuval Rooz

There's no point.

Bankless

That being said, the reason why I really like this technology...

Bankless
Is Canton a Real Blockchain? | Canton Founder Yuval Rooz

is that it removes the barriers and the moats around competing with the old intermediaries.

Bankless
Is Canton a Real Blockchain? | Canton Founder Yuval Rooz

That to me is exciting, not because I think it's going to, by definition, disintermediate and remove the old guard, but it will say to the old guard, either improve and offer better products to your customers or someone else will take you out.

Bankless
Is Canton a Real Blockchain? | Canton Founder Yuval Rooz

Yeah.

Bankless
Is Canton a Real Blockchain? | Canton Founder Yuval Rooz

And my only point is, I honestly like where I have...

Bankless
Is Canton a Real Blockchain? | Canton Founder Yuval Rooz

a lot of room to have these back and forth.

Bankless

For example, Ryan and David, I'm actually, I understand that we don't see eye to eye on a lot of different things.
