Podcast: Every Project Will Have Its Own L2 | Michael Anderson & Vance Spencer
Framework’s co-founders discuss L2 scaling, liquid staking and predictions for 2030
Vance Spencer and Michael Anderson, co-founders of Framework Ventures, join Jason on today’s episode of “Empire.” The founders have grown Framework’s assets under management from $14 million to over $1.4 billion in just three years.
The co-founders share their thoughts on the layer-2 scaling thesis and why every project will eventually fork their own layer-2. Vance and Michael believe the shift to layer-2s is inevitable — it’s the endgame in maximizing token value.
They then dive into staking and staking derivatives and why the Ethereum merge will bring about the birth of a new industry. This might be the most alpha ever dropped in one podcast — don’t miss it!
Plus, hear more on:
- leveraged bets on ETH
- the demise of AMMs
- enterprise blockchains
- ETH 2.0 merge
- And so much more!
Check out what they had to say in the video below.👇
