In this week’s episode, Anna (https://twitter.com/AnnaRRose) chats with Emre Tekişalp (https://twitter.com/etekis) and Izaak Meckler (twitter.com/izmeckler) about what’s new with Mina, O(1) Labs, the network launch and of course the anticipated release of Snapps to testnet later this year. We learn all about how Snapps, these SNARK-powered applications, bring data privacy and scalability to blockchain.
