About this Episode
This episode of the #citizenweb3 podcast features Nixo from Ethereum Foundation
Nixo shared candid insights on trust in centralized exchanges, the small yet influential nature of Crypto Twitter, and the importance of following genuine interests over money. He also highlighted challenges in finding competent legal experts and how people are naturally inclined to pick sides in the crypto space.
The Ethereum Foundation (EF) is a nonprofit dedicated to supporting Ethereum’s development, research, and ecosystem growth. While it doesn’t control Ethereum, it funds key upgrades, research, and community initiatives to ensure the network remains open, decentralized, and innovative.
