#86 - Meet the Startup Redefining Blockchain Speed and Decentralization

In this Meet the Startup episode of the Alumni Ventures Tech Optimist Podcast, we spotlight Quai Network, a trailblazer in blockchain scalability and decentralization. Co-founder Alan Orwick joins host Ray Wu to share how Quai's innovative approach, including their groundbreaking proof-of-entropy consensus mechanism and three-by-three hierarchical chain structure, achieves an astounding 50,000 transactions per second. Backed by $15 million in funding, Quai Network is addressing blockchain's "trilemma"—scalability, security, and decentralization—while introducing an energy-based stablecoin that reimagines digital currency. Dive into this exciting conversation with Ray and Alan about the future of blockchain and how Quai is leading the charge to unlock the technology's full potential.
