  <description>&lt;hr&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This episode of the #citizenweb3 podcast features  Peng Zong to discuss the latest changes in the management of Tendermint and his personal views on various topics, such as, challenges of the CEO role, future plans, power abuse, project naming, the board of directors and a (not-so anymore) secret upcoming release. Peng is the newly appointed CEO of Tendermint.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Tendermint, a core contributor to the Cosmos Network. Building the most powerful tools for distributed networks. Tendermint is the gateway to the Cosmos ecosystem. Building critical infrastructure for open networks, like the Cosmos SDK, Tendermint Core, and Gaia. And leading developer experience by providing best-in-class tools to peer into an ever expanding Cosmos.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;hr&gt;

&lt;h5&gt;We spoke to &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/zcpeng" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt; Peng Zong&lt;/a&gt; about &lt;a href="https://tendermint.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Tendermint&lt;/a&gt; and:&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The latest changes in the management of Tendermint&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Challenges of a CEO&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Future plans&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Power abuse&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Project naming&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The board of directors&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The (ex) secret upcoming release&lt;/li&gt;
