About this episode

Hi everyone, we are back with another episode of our podcast allowing you to get to know people working behind the scenes of the crypto industry.  Today we are joined by Michael Messele who is the CEO of Etherspot, an all-in-one, EVM-compatible framework and a very much-needed game-changing innovation in cross-chain asset transfers & Web3 user experience. 

Welcome to the 150th episode of the Inside Crypto Podcast. This episode was recorded on June 6th, 2023. It’s been an eventful week for crypto with the SEC going on an offensive but we still get a chance to talk about the positive with Michael who explains some of the core principles of crypto in funny and entertaining ways. The perfect episode for people new and old to the space.

Thanks, everyone for listening, and don’t forget to tune in next week when we interviewSherry Jiang, founder and CEO of BlueJay Finance.

Topics Covered Today:

I introduced a little of what Etherspot is about but why don’t you give us the complete picture?

Looking at some of your documentation and social handles, you continue to use “Web3” terminology. Does that mean you believe we still need to get users used to these terms?

What’s developer traction been like? Socially speaking, anything to do with crypto has seen a dip in the last two months. Are people still interested in making Web3 apps?

You allow networks or dApps to pay for user gas fees. I love this idea as regular people dislike paying money for every transaction. Do you think this is enough to get more people involved?

Cross-Chain is mentioned a bunch of times, I’ve got to ask about the security issue. I know last week we saw another hack. How are you doing your best to keep secure?

We’ve seen a pullback from fiat enablers. Has this affected you in any way? I did see you offer 1000 euro on and off ramps without KYC.

Zooming out, what are some of the challenges you’ve faced this year?

Where do you see Etherspot moving in the next 12 to 18 months?
