In this episode of The Blockopedia podcast, Pharos Network’s DevRel lead Janesh sat down with The Blockopedia’s C0-founder Mohammad Ahmad Khan to talk about what actually separates successful blockchain ecosystems from the ones quietly fading out, and why hackathons alone are not the developer growth strategy most chains think they are.Janesh's entry into Web3 traces back to a small 100 page book called Blockchain Blueprint of New Economy. Coming from a cybersecurity and infrastructure engineering background, with a long personal history exploring open networks and Tor, the idea of decentralized systems clicked almost instantly. His first real step in was the Solana India hackathon, where he did not win, but the experience pulled him into a string of hackathons across multiple ecosyste...

From High School Crypto Trading to Building Pyra: Diogo on Investing Every Paycheck Without Selling

In this episode of The Blockopedia podcast, Pyra’s Co-founder and CEO Diogo sat down with The Blockopedia’s Co-founder Mohammad Ahmad Khan to talk about building a fintech app that lets users invest their entire paycheck into crypto and other assets, spend through credit instead of selling, and recover stronger after a major public setback with the Drift exploit.Diogo's path into crypto started early. He first heard about Bitcoin and Ethereum in high school through a friend, and instead of just trading, he went straight to reading white papers. That curiosity carried him through a computer science degree, where he experimented with DeFi spending tools, yield strategies and arbitrage trading before eventually landing in the Solana ecosystem, where he has built ever since.His first r...

From Ethereum Email Experiments to Building Parasol: Neon Labs CEO Ivan on Scaling Solana the Right Way

In a wide ranging conversation on The Blockopedia podcast, Neon Labs CEO Ivan sat down with The Blockopedia’s Co-founder Mohammad Ahmad Khan to walk through a decade of building across Ethereum, Polygon and Solana, and to explain why his newest project, Parasol, might be the missing piece for sophisticated DeFi on Solana.Few people in Web3 have watched as many ecosystems evolve from the inside as Ivan has. Long before he became CEO of Neon Labs, he was an engineer who stumbled into crypto almost by accident. In 2015, after discovering Ethereum through its ICO, his team built an email platform on top of it called Lemon Email. It launched in 2017, right as ether's price exploded, leaving them with what he jokingly calls the world's most expensive email product. It wasn't a financial succ...

Trading RWAs on Delta Exchange: F&O Market Mechanics Explained

I've been trading RWA tokens for a while now, and the spot side felt pretty easy to pick up. But the first time I opened a futures position on an RWA token, I realized I didn't fully understand what I was doing. The price behaved differently than I expected; I got charged a fee I didn't see coming, and I had to stop and actually learn how this stuff works before trying again. That experience also made me explore Tokenized Gold (XAUTUSD) and understand how its RWA futures contract works before trading it.In this post, I'll break down how RWA futures and options work, how pricing and settlement differ from spot markets, and what beginners should watch for before layering derivatives on top of tokenized assets on a cryptocurrency trading exchange. Key TakeawaysRWA tokens track real asse...

How EIP-7702 Upgrades EOAs and Unlocks a Better Web3 UX

Wallets have become the starting point for almost every interaction in Web3: sending tokens, collecting NFTs, exploring new dApps, or making a first DeFi trade. As the Ethereum ecosystem grows, improving wallet experience and safety has become increasingly important. Most users still rely on EOAs (externally owned or key-based accounts), which work well but are limited compared to the functionality modern Web3 applications require.EIP-7702 addresses this by enhancing the capabilities of EOAs without asking users to switch to a different type of wallet. It allows an EOA to temporarily act like a smart account during a transaction, giving it access to more flexible and secure behavior only when needed.To help developers upgrade EOA wallets in this way, the ecosystem needs more than t...

Delta Exchange Review: What I Learned After a Month of Crypto F&O Trading

If you’ve ever tried crypto futures and options (F&O) trading, you know it’s not just about finding the right contract - it’s about how smoothly the platform handles your decisions in real time. Even a small lag when placing a futures order or a confusing options layout can throw your strategy off. That’s why I decided to give Delta Exchange a proper try. Over the past month, I placed trades in futures, tested options for hedging, and even explored trackers when I wanted exposure without holding the asset. I also explored a bit with algo trading to see how automation fits into the mix. This review is my honest take on what it felt like to use Delta Exchange as a trader who cares about speed, costs, and usability. Getting Started on Delta Exchange My first step was setting up ...
