Why Abstract Is Building Crypto's Digital Disneyland with Luca Netz & Michael Lee

While other L2s fight technical battles, Abstract is creating something entirely different: a "digital Disneyland" thatโ€™s all about fun.

In today's episode, we chat with Luca Netz and Michael Lee "Cash Bowie," to explore how this playful approach is driving real traction:

- Portal is bringing 25,000+ users to quality apps in a snap

- Builders with solid monetization are generating $500K+ monthly

- The Pudgy Penguins playbook is catching the eye of top global brands

From distribution to consumer crypto, and everything in between, youโ€™ll get the full picture of the Abstract playbook.

Let's jump in.
