Hat tip to Amira + Solana Labs for putting together the strongest starting 5 since the '04 Indiana Pacers. Grateful to join an important deep-dive on borderless payments, humanitarian aid, + the continued balance between risk and protecting user privacy. TL;DR: Progress + UX advancements despite regulatory headwinds--miles to go before scale.
