On episode 29 of the Zero Rights Reserved podcast, hosts Toady Hawk and Prof Werder from The Noun Square sit down with Will Papper, Nouner and co-founder of Syndicate.
In this conversation, we learn about Will's career journey, which involves being a trailblazing founder, first in the field of AI and later crypto. We talk about how his company, Syndicate aims to facilitate cooperation and composability for onchain communities like Farcaster and $Degen, the future of Ethereum's rollup-centric roadmap as he sees it, and why he believes Layer 2s and Layer 3s could one day eclipse L1s in TVL. Finally, we dig into what attracted Will to Nouns since early days, how he likes to contribute to the project, and what he hopes to see in the future from Nouns.
