EP6 Bridging with JAIMIN (Founder of Caddi)

Jaimin is the founder of Caddi, a browser extension that lets you bridge and swap on any website, so that you don’t have to open multiple tabs to make a mere transaction. In this conversation we’ll discuss: his history as a quant, the story of Caddi, what hurts about bridging right now — we even do a live bridge via Caddi — the concept of bridge dick-measuring, fun things to do onchain, and finally, I test Jaimin to see if he really knows his bridges.
