Questions:

1. Please introduce yourself and tell us about your personal journey in web3. Was it an easy one?

2. Wormhole started as a token bridge and has grown into an interoperability platform. What is the main problem that you address: data silos, lack of liquidity, or anything else?

3. We heard that Google Cloud is now a validator node on your Guardian Network, plus Google Cloud does a security upgrade for your network. Is this collaboration focused on the network side only or is its scope bigger than that?

4. Since Wormhole has recently partnered with Securitize, let's talk about tokenized securities and RWAs a bit. How big do you think is the RWA market right now? Can you say that together with Securitize you serve more than a half of it? What is the share of RWAs in your total operations at the moment and how do you expect it to change in the future?

5. In the web3 industry, there are opposing views on whether new apps or better infrastructure should come first before a qualitative leap forward happens. What's your take?

6. Please tell us about Wormhole Era3 and Era4. Which one are you currently at? What updates will they bring?

7. How far along is Wormhole in the process of decentralizing protocol governance and putting it in hands of $W holders?

8. In your opinion, what are the major narratives of the starting bull market cycle?

9. Do you think DeFi will return to retail users? Is this something Wormhole would like to see happen?
