Dr. Muneeb Ali (Co-founder, Stacks and CEO, Hiro) and Gina Abrams (Special Projects, Hiro) chat about Stacks and connect with folks in the Stacks community to answer some commonly asked questions. This episode took place on 06.01.21.

Questions:
0:00 Start
01:13 What's your perspective on scalability vs. decentralization, and what is on the horizon for Stacks in this department? 
11:10 It's been said that transactions per second could be considered a vanity metric for blockchains. What's your opinion on the metrics that will really matter that you're looking out for in robust Layer 1s of the future? 
14:30 You recently shared a tweet about the BurgerSwap exploit where 7.2M was drained from BurgerSwap on Binance Smart Chain due to a reentrancy bug inherited from Solidity. In contrast the Stacks ecosystem offers Clarity for building out secure smart contracts — can you share more details on how and why these different design approaches were taken? 
18:25 Now, you're not going to Bitcoin Miami, but might be having some FOMO — are there any crazy crypto stories you’d like to share or things you are looking forward to as the world opens back up? 


Hiro is a Public Benefit Corp building developer tools for Stacks, the network that enables apps and smart contracts on Bitcoin.
