Cryptonews Podcast host Matt Zahab sat down for an exclusive interview with Bill Laboon, the Director of Education and Governance Initiatives at the Web3 Foundation, a not-for-profit entity supporting the Polkadot ecosystem.
Laboon discussed everything Polkadot and various aspects of its ecosystem, the real competitors to Polkadot and the Web3 Foundation, and how the Foundation and Parity turned out to be centralized points in a decentralized project.
He talked about the community reaching a whopping 1,000 referendums and crypto needing more end-user-focused apps if it’s to go mainstream.
