Episode 247: Exploring Penumbra with Henry de Valence - a podcast by Fredrik Harrysson, Anna Rose

In this week’s episode, Anna (https://twitter.com/annarrose) and Guillermo (https://twitter.com/guilleangeris) catch up with Henry de Valence (https://twitter.com/hdevalence) from Penumbra (https://twitter.com/penumbrazone). They discuss his thoughts on requirements for adoption of privacy systems and how these led to him to develop Penumbra. They explore how Penumbra aims to use privacy features not as ‘nice to haves' within the system, but rather as essential components that offer a new paradigm for how to think about DeFi in a Multichain Ecosystem.
