The Expedia for Web3 Infrastructure! In this episode, we speak with Marouen from Crestal Network about how the project aims to simplify the complex landscape of modular blockchains for developers. 

Do you know if the data availability layer you have chosen is performing well? Is the performance data credible? Or are you trusting the shiny marketing of the well-funded DA layer options blindly?

These are issues web3 devs might face. Crestal wants to solve this. No performance? No pay. 

They are building an intent-based marketplace that helps developers discover, design, and deploy the best infrastructure for their projects. Marouen explains how he views Crestal as the "Expedia for Web3 Infrastructure.” It enables builders to make better infra-decisions by providing performance metrics and matching them with the best service providers for what they are looking for.

We discuss the challenges of modularity, the need for credible data, shiny marketing, and how Crestal plans to bridge the gap between builders and infrastructure providers to create a pay-for-performance model.
