Federico Küllmer - Ethermint (Evmos): Connecting Ethereum to CØSMOS

Today, I'm excited to host Federico Kunze Küllmer. He is an early Cosmos contributor and developer of the IBC protocol (Inter Blockchain Communication) - which was released in February of 2021. Federico is extremely knowledgable and experienced when it comes to bridging models, such as the Gravity Bridge, IBC itself or other models that we have seen on projects like Polygon, Avalanche or the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) for instance. I learned a lot during our conversation about the design architecture of Ethermint, a project that originally kicked off in 2016 and is now being realized after a successful governance proposal to fund development from the ATOM community reserves.
