The Open Networks Path Forward | Analyst Round Table

In this episode, our Blockworks Research analysts asked themselves, can TON survive? After Pavel Durov’s arrest, what’s their best path forward? They also discussed MakerDAOs rebrand to Sky and how previous rebrands in crypto have worked out. Additionally, they debated whether or not Ethereum L2s are parasitic. Finally, they speculated on when, if ever,  L2s will move away from using Ether as their primary gas token. Thanks for tuning in!
