In episode 9 of The Big Brain Podcast, Larry and Namik are joined by Infinex founder Kain Warwick. The trio discuss how crypto’s complex user experience remains a roadblock for projects to gain broader adoption and find new users, and how Infinex aims to tackle this by being the first true “superapp.” The conversation also digs into multi-chain routing, gas abstraction, fundraising, “CT mafia” dynamics, and how Infinex aims to compete with MetaMask, Phantom, and Coinbase Wallet.
