Where Max Documents His Betrayal Max is leaving Ethereum, and we have the details. On this Gwart Show special recorded at @PubKey in NYC, Max and Eugene join Gwart to go through Max’s decision to leave Ethereum dev shop Consensys in favor of a Solana client which frankly we don’t know how to spell or pronounce.
