59:34 Share

Gm! This week, Jesse Pollak creator of Base joins the show for a discussion on what the team have been building. As retail activity picks up on both Solana & Base, we thought why not just invite Jesse to the show to discuss the L2 end game, network scaling, base fee revenue & much more. Enjoy!
