About this episode
Evan Cheng is the Co-founder & CEO at Mysten Labs, which is the team behind Sui Network.

In our conversation we explore the potential of this up and coming Layer 1 by learning about the underlying motivation of the founder, what makes it different from other blockchains, in particular Aptos, the current main uses cases, and more.
