Alfred Hitchcock famously said, "A good film should start with an earthquake and be followed by rising tension". @LayerZero_Core event started with Ray Kurzweil and then followed this advice. For me it resonated exceptionally well as I used to be fascinated with Ray’s work years ago. But at some point this whole thing felt somewhat surreal when @PrimordialAA was moderating a panel with their initial partners. Suddenly it hit me that I’m sitting at a crypto event and I see a crypto founder hosting executives from @The_DTCC, @ICE_Markets, and @citsecurities, casually talking with them about the things they’re going to work on in the near future. How the tables have turned, huh? Of course, as a professional sceptic I will need to wait to see how all of those announcements materialize. But the event was impressive. Hats off, @PrimordialAA. And thank you for inviting me, it was a pleasure to share this day with your team.
