Episode notes
INSIGHT

App Revenue Matters More Than Gas

  • L1 value will compress and true value accrues at the app layer; pay-per-gas isn't a full valuation metric.
  • The hosts propose 'chain GDP' — app revenues atop chains — as a better measure of network value.
INSIGHT

LayerZero Aims Beyond A Bridge

  • LayerZero positioned itself as a permissionless cross-chain communication protocol, not merely a bridge.
  • Their primitives and ZK claims target massive TPS gains and omnichain assets, challenging incumbent ecosystems.
ADVICE

Check Supply Overhang Before Buying

  • Be cautious of heavy supply overhangs when evaluating new tokens like ZERO with large uncirculated supply.
  • Watch for acquisitions and revenue sources (e.g., Stargate integration) before assuming sustained price momentum.
