You know, we say everyone should learn how to code. I think now everyone should learn how to prompt. So if you go to uranium.io today, you can actually buy tokenized uranium. The agents also are really good at understanding blockchain, right? Understanding the blockchain, understanding distributed systems, understanding like solidity, understanding some of the tooling. So I think it's an amazing time to be a builder. I think that if you were a 5x engineer before, I think working with agents makes you an 100x engineer, right? I made my agent into an asset manager and said, hey, every single morning before the market opens, go and read all of the different pieces of news from everywhere. And then kind of like piece all of that news together and then tell me, you know, what's the market looking like today?
Should I be buying anything? Should I keep my position? Should I offload my position? Hello, innovators, investors, and risk-takers. Welcome to another episode of Web3 with Sam Kumani Podcast. And today on this podcast episode, I am interviewing Adibola from the Tezos Foundation or network. I have known about Tezos for a very long time, and he's here to share about all the new innovation that they are building on this platform. as always nothing that we talk about here should be taken as investment advice and please like share subscribe and follow and with all that out of the way let's get into it and we are recording this live actually at ETH Denver and even though despite of what people say there are still a lot of founders here there are still a lot of builders here and they are still innovating things are still moving on but yeah let's get into this conversation more about ETH Denver later on
Welcome to the show. I've been looking forward to interviewing you, Adibola, on this show and talking about Tezos because Tezos is something that I came across, I think 2017-18 ICO time. So it is one of the long-standing projects in the crypto space and the whole blockchain ecosystem. So yeah, I just wanted to find out what are you guys busy with working these days and what's new at Tezos? Yeah, thanks so much, Sam, for having me on the podcast. I'm super excited to be here. I'm also super excited to be out here at eDenver as well. I think it's been a pretty interesting experience. We've had a lot of people come to our stand, just talking to us about the protocol in general, talking to us about our EVM runtime as well.
It's a link. I know we're going to talk about that later on in the podcast as well. But I think these days, what are we working on at Tezos, on the Tezos protocol? Again, we still have our Layer 1 that everyone knows. So in terms of governance, in terms of settlement, finality, all of that still happens on Tezos Layer 1 today. But also in the past year, year and a half, we've also released EtherLink, which is our EVM Layer 2 roll-up built on top of Tezos. So essentially with EtherLink, the transactions still settle onto the Tezos Layer 1. But the thing about Eterlink is that you can now use your EVM tools. So you don't have to make too many changes to your code base to deploy on Eterlink. So if you're already an EVM native developer, like you know Solidity use all of the EVM tools, you can simply bring that to Eterlink and deploy on top of the Eterlink rollup.
which is built on top of Tezos. So that's one thing that we're working on. And the capital markets team is really pushing that aggressively. So we also have a lot of institutions, a lot of family offices as well, who are thinking about, okay, how do we take advantage of the blockchain? How do we build products on top of the chain? So a lot of these family offices and traditional financial institutions, they're chain agnostic, right? They don't really care about the chain. For them, it's mostly about what does it allow us to do? What products can we build for our own users and for retail investors? or for people, for our customers to use, right? So our capital markets team is doing a lot of support around that.
