🎙️ Ep. 656 Canopy Network | Building the Next Generation of Layer 1 Infrastructure (feat. Adam Liposky)
For episode 656 of the BlockHash Podcast, host Brandon Zemp is joined by Adam Liposky, Co-Founder and CEO of Canopy Network.
Adam is creating an auto-scaling Layer 1 designed to make launching and growing blockchains as simple as deployment. Before Canopy, Adam helped scale Pocket Network into a top decentralized infrastructure protocol, onboarding 40 plus chains and growing the network to over a billion daily relays.
He previously founded and exited NachoNodes, a high-performance staking operation, and later led ecosystem growth at Moonbeam during one of the toughest market cycles.
