This week we are joined by Emmanuel Awosika, a prominent member of the Ethereum R&D community, to explore the ways in which Ethereum needs to improve to become more competitive with newer, high throughput blockchains. We discuss the current issues with Ethereum, including the challenges of interoperability between rollups and the ossification of Eth's "OG" culture, before exploring the solutions to help make Eth great again.
