| 0:00.0 | We're at the Axler Interoperability Summit, where now I'm going to talk to Steven |
| 0:16.8 | Goldfeder of Arbitrum, specifically about stylus, this new thing that is creating what they |
| 0:21.7 | are calling EDM+, so if you want to code on solidity on Arbitrum you still can, but if |
| 0:26.8 | you also want to code on Arbitrum, you can code with any other language that exists, which |
| 0:31.4 | I didn't know was possible, but apparently it is now with Arbitrum stylus. |
| 0:35.3 | But I also talked to him about the Layer 2 Wars, which we're getting spicier and spicier |
| 0:39.4 | these days, especially as optimism's got their super chain, ZK sync has their hypers chain, |

| 1:13.9 | for 2023 was a no-brainer. |
| 1:15.9 | We need exchanges like Kraken to provide the on-ramps to get people to go bankless, and |
| 1:20.1 | Kraken's emphasis on security and transparency makes us feel good about having them as a sponsor. |
| 1:25.2 | If you're unsure about your centralized exchange or on-ramp, perhaps open an account with Kraken |
