TODAY'S SHOW: In this episode of Monero Talk, Douglas Tuman interviews Aaluxx, co-founder of Maya Protocol, about cross-chain decentralized exchange technology, tokenomics, and real-world crypto adoption.
Aaluxx explains how Maya Protocol, a permissionless cross-chain DEX forked from ThorChain, enables swaps across major blockchains while facing inherent scalability limits. He discusses the technical barriers to Monero integration, outlines Maya’s dual-token model (Cacao and Maya), and shares insights on cryptocurrency adoption in Mexico, emphasizing utility-driven development over speculation. The conversation also covers Maya’s collaborative stance toward other cross-chain projects like Serai DEX and briefly touches on the upcoming Monerotopia conference in Mexico City.
