With crypto in particular, I think one of the most unique things is the fact that the networks themselves are built to be peer-to-peer networks, right?

So when you run a node, that node has been built to run on your machine with one user and then connects to a series of other nodes and talks to them.

because you're not going to get, you know, a lot of people connecting to that one node.

My name is Christopher Brown and I'm a co-founder and CEO of Zabo.

This is Code Story, a podcast bringing you interviews with tech visionaries

who share in the critical moments of what

it takes to change in industry and build and lead a team that has your back.

I'm your host, Noah Laphart, and today how Christopher Brown was inspired by Ethereum

to create the plaid of the cryptocurrency world.

In getting involved, he found that he had difficulty keeping up with

who was building what in the space, and he could only imagine how hard it was for outsiders to keep up.

This inspired he and his co-founder to build Zabo, which connects any app to cryptocurrency via an

API.

So Zobo, it connects any app to cryptocurrency, and we do it via an API.
