We Can’t Do Chain Abstraction Without Fast Bridging ft. Peter (Relay)

Hey there, and welcome back!

In today’s episode, we’re joined by Peter, founder of Reservoir and Relay, to unpack a story that starts with NFTs and ends with a protocol reshaping how value moves across chains.

Peter shares how Relay embraced a solver-first approach, admitting itself as a centralized bridge — and why that honesty paid off. He breaks down how the team prioritized speed and efficiency to make Relay stand out.

We also get into the juicy stuff: the battle of intents vs. token standards, the challenges of scaling solvers, and why chain abstraction might just be the hardest UX problem in crypto. And of course, a sneak peek at Relay’s 2025 plans to stay ahead in this fast-moving space.

So grab your drink of choice, sit back, and join us for a deep dive into one of the fastest-growing bridge of 2024. This is one you won’t want to miss!
