Transcript 0:00 Maybe that's the, maybe that's the way to view this in the East and West narrative, where the East is very pragmatic, ready to deploy capital, ready to move, and the West is, um, a little more cautious about technical design. 0:14 And then combining these two, I'm kind of s- you know, spitballing here. Maybe combining these two is one of the best hybrid, uh, business and, uh, uh, protocol models. Um- Yeah... 0:25 interesting, interesting food for thought here. Um- Yeah, absolutely. 'Cause it... 0:29 Yeah, and just to add, like, one last piece to that, um, 'cause yeah, this is really from like, you know, kind of the s- this, the six years I've spent as, like, a, kind of VC in crypto is like, you know, um... 0:40 I mean, even there's folks that have asked me, like, a year or two ago, goes like, "What's your dream team, dream, like, founding team in crypto?" Right? 0:47 And my answer's always been, it's, uh, kind of go-to-market folks from the East, and then technical folks from the West. Um, I think that is kind of the dream team. 0:58 Um, and I think, you know, um, [laughs] in some ways, like, that's the team that we're building here at Satlayer. To, to... That's like, I feel like that's the tagline from me. 1:08 That's a, that's a really compelling narrative. 1:10 Okay, so, um, Satlayer launched, by the, by the time this episode airs, uh, I think tomorrow, Thursday, Satlayer will be halfway through the first, um, re-staking epoch, if I'm correct. It lasts two weeks. That's right. 1:25 Um, what comes after that? I assume a second epoch. Yeah. What might that look like? Are you ready to talk about that yet? How's that going? Yeah. Um, absolutely. 1:36 So I can't share too much details yet, but yeah, so our epochs are, uh, run every two weeks. 1:42 Um, and, ah, the idea behind these is that, you know, they actually map well to, like, our internal engineering sprints, and then it's also a good way for us to really to kind of test different mechanisms, different designs, right, before we kind of fully lock things in, um, for kind of main l- launch. 1:59 Um, and, uh, you know, I think what I can say is, uh, yeah, I think everyone should very much stay tuned for the second epoch. We're gonna be unveiling quite a bit in terms of our plans moving forward. 2:11 Um, and, uh, and then, uh, we will also be, uh, raising the cap fairly soon. Um, so, you know, I'll definitely share more on that, um, as soon as I can, um, you know, within our Discord and on, uh, Twitter. 2:26 Well, I'm on both, I'm following, I'll be paying close attention. Uh, Luke, any last words or any final thoughts before we wrap this up? 2:36 Um, I just wanna say, you know, thank you so much for having me on, and then I think, um, yeah, I think, I think final thoughts is, uh, you know, I think, just, also just wanna thanks again to everyone that laid the foundation for us being able to build today, right? 2:51 So the, you know, um, you know, Casey, Domo, Danny, um, all the folks, you know, with Ordinals, with Inscriptions, with Runes, um, and certainly the, the Babylon team for really building the foundation, um, for, for us. 3:04 Um, so very excited to be here, and I think in many ways it's very refreshing to be building, um, you know, kind of, uh, this, all these cool, like, infrastructure, um, in Bitcoin.
