Today we have Tal Tchwella, Product Manager of Products Engineering at Solana Labs. Solana is a Layer 1 blockchain with high infrastructure requirements and throughput. In our conversation we dive deep into Tal’s work on crypto inside of Facebook (Meta), the transition to Solana, the resurgence of NFTs as of late, all the hype with the $BONK meme coin, boots on the ground of what it’s like working full-time in Web3 and crypto, the Solana Phone, as well as the tea on Solana post the FTX collapse. Before we get into it, Tal gives us a brief overview of his current focus at Solana.
