Great episode guys!

Great topics! I didn't realize these security differences between Celestia's DAS and EigenDA' Data scaling. I always perceived EigenDA a bit more secure than Celestia.
Just wonder: Does the fact that EigenDA leverages Ethereum's proof of stake mechanism improve the EigenDA security level somehow in your mind or do you perceive the slasing conditions as an inafficiant protection?

History has shown us that as companies get bigger and bigger, they become more and more vertically integrated and less modular. ex apple M! chip. I expect the same thing with blockchain. ex solana. I hold $tia, bc its it first cycle and think it will grow to 40B mcap
