Hi everyone, we are back with another episode of our podcast allowing you to get to know people working behind the scenes of the crypto industry. Today we are joined by Elena SineInikova who is a former Government of Canada solutions architect turned entrepreneur. Before Metis, Elena founded CryptoChicks, an educational hub and accelerator for women in blockchain with Natalia Amaline, mother of Ethereum inventor Vitalik Buterin.

Welcome to the 147th episode of the Inside Crypto Podcast. This episode was recorded on May 19th, 2023. Metis has been under the radar for many who are focused on Layer 2 technologies so we try to uncover what are the next steps for the ecosystem and their plans to help onboard more users.

Thanks, everyone for listening, and don’t forget to tune in next week when we interview Raj Brahmbhatt, founder and CEO of Zeebu.
