  <description>&lt;hr&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This episode of the #citizenweb3 podcast features Mayur Relekar from Arcana network&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Mayur Relekar, entered crypto for the hype but stayed for its ideals, now advocating for pragmatic, business-driven approaches to Web3. He emphasizes that not everything needs to be fully decentralized and sees the future in users engaging with apps, not chains.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Arcana Network is a Web3 infrastructure startup focused on simplifying blockchain use through its Chain Abstraction Protocol, allowing users to manage and spend assets across multiple chains without bridges or gas fees. Its tools—like Arcana Auth, Gasless SDK, and Wallet—aim to make Web3 as seamless as Web2.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;hr&gt;

&lt;h5&gt;We spoke to &lt;a href="https://x.com/mayurrelekar?lang=en" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Mayur Relekar&lt;/a&gt;  about &lt;a href="https://x.com/ArcanaNetwork" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Arcana network&lt;/a&gt; and:&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Got in with shitcoins and stayed for the tech&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The ideals and the philosophies of crypto&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Degenerating into just a pure casino&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;No money in Web3 gaming yet&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Not everything needs to be pure Web3&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;No money in Web3 social yet&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Making choices purely based on business requirements&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The choice of building on so many more stacks&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;People start using apps instead of using chains&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Timestamps &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;00:00 – 07:20 : Intro &lt;br&gt;
07:20 -- 14:50 : Idealistic future we hoped for&lt;br&gt;
14:50 -- 18:04 : Pure Web3 stack&lt;br&gt;
18:04 -- 26:31 : Helping people&lt;br&gt;
26:31 -- 36:40 : Decentralization and centralization spectrum&lt;br&gt;
36:40 -- 42:48 : Binaries&lt;br&gt;
42:48 -- 49:40 : Memes, community building and feeding developers&lt;br&gt;
49:40 -- 54:13 : Maintaining security and efficiency&lt;br&gt;
54:13 – 59:28 : The Blitz&lt;/p&gt;
