Brussels catch up with Hart from Across

Summary

In this week’s episode, x.com/AnnaRRose and Tarun (x.com/tarunchitra) sit down with Hart Lambur (x.com/hal2001) irl at EthCC week in Brussels. They start by exploring Hart’s project Across (across.to) - a cross-chain interoperability solution and sister project to Uma (uma.xyz). They explore the Across construction, the tradeoff space and how this compares to other interop solutions. Then, in ZK Podcast tradition, the group shift gears with a few drinks and explore thoughtful observations on the week in Brussels.
