This week I'm releasing a 1-hour conversation with Sam Blackshear - the creator of the Move language and Co-founder & CTO of @Mysten_Labs, the company behind @SuiNetwork & @WalrusProtocol.
@b1ackd0g shares how a Facebook internship changed his life, why he built the Move language from scratch, and how to think deeply about solving real problems in crypto dev tooling.
We talk about:
- Why is SUI the best layer one blockchain out there
- Going from academics into Crypto
- Why the Move Language is the best programming language to build a blockchain application
- How the support of his parents led him to become successful
- Why he did a PhD in language programming and analysis
- His role on the Libra project at Facebook
- What the Move language actually is, and why he created it
- Why he loves surfing despite it being 99% of paddling and only 1% riding waves
- Why he believes that the Move developer community will grow 5x
And much, much more
