The Tech Blog Writer Podcast - Inspired Tech Startup Stories & Interviews With Tech Leaders, Entrepreneurs And Innovators

Here’s the thing. We have had brilliant ideas in Web3 for years, along with better tooling and plenty of enthusiasm, yet adoption still feels slower than it should be. In my conversation with Maciej Baj, founder of t3rn, we got under the skin of why that is and what it might take to change the pace. His starting point is simple to state and hard to deliver at scale: make cross-chain interactions feel seamless for users and predictable for developers. If you can do that, the door opens to practical products rather than experiments that only the bravest try.

Instead of stitching together a mess of bridges and oracles, t3rn lets a contract access state and data across multiple chains from one place. Today it is mapped to the EVM for broad compatibility, but the design is chain agnostic by intent. That choice is less about tribal loyalties and more ab
