    008 cross-chain chat: what will bring the bull back?

    Welcome to the 8th episode of Building Blocks, formerly known as Squad Space! As we reflected on the past year, it became clear to us that our interests had outgrown our original name. So, we changed it to better emphasize what drives us as hosts: the pursuit of knowledge, of sharing lessons with one another as well as anyone who will join us by listening in. Looking ahead to the upcoming year, it's clear that the potential for web3 technologies is vast. But with endless possibilities, it’s difficult to pinpoint what exactly will be the next big meta. In this episode, we'll be discussing some of the key trends and developments from the past year, as well as what we can expect to see in the year ahead. Whether you're a seasoned web3 enthusiast or just getting started, this is the perfect place to stay up-to-date on all things related to cryptocurrencies and NFTs. So sit back, relax, and let's dive in! hosts: @_mackinac & @0xFForest
