Join us on 0xResearch as we interview Miguel Morel, Arkham's CEO. Unlike the traditional financial system, crypto is transparent and auditable. But, we need infrastructure that links wallets to specific identities (e.g. an exchange, pseudonym), or this transparency is just a list of alphanumerical accounts. That's why Arkham has built a platform to make tag wallets and on-chain data useful. Tune in as we explore Arkham and the implications for on-chain data in this deep dive!
And as usual, we start the episode with our analyst Hot Seat/Cool Throne segment, where we debate the banking system meltdown, the rollup wars and Arbitrum's airdrop.
