Omar Zaki, Founder of Composable & Picasso | Bitcoin, Interoperability & Building a Chain-Agnostic Super App for Web3 | Bitcoin.com Interviews

About this episode

Omar Zaki, founder of Composable and Picasso, joins Dustin Plantholt on Bitcoin.com Interviews to discuss how Bitcoin’s decentralized design philosophy inspired a new wave of cross-chain interoperability — and how his team is building a chain-agnostic super app to unify ecosystems across Polkadot, Cosmos, Kusama, Ethereum, Solana, and NEAR.

Composable and Picasso are leading the charge in expanding IBC (Inter-Blockchain Communication) to all major networks, enabling developers and users to experience secure, seamless, and permissionless asset transfers across multiple chains. With 20+ live IBC connections and advanced technologies like CVM (Composable Virtual Machine) and MANTIS, the project is redefining what’s possible in Web3 infrastructure and DeFi scalability.

Omar explains how Bitcoin’s original interoperability goals — permissionless exchange, transparency, and resilience — serve as the foundation for Composable’s mission to connect every blockchain under one universal standard.

💡 In this episode:
• How Composable and Picasso are expanding IBC beyond the Cosmos ecosystem
• Why chain-agnostic infrastructure is essential for the future of Web3 and DeFi
• Omar Zaki’s insights on building seamless cross-chain user experiences
• How Bitcoin’s design inspired today’s multi-chain architecture
• The role of CVM and MANTIS in achieving secure, scalable interoperability

🎧 A technically rich conversation on Bitcoin’s impact on cross-chain innovation, IBC-powered connectivity, and how Composable and Picasso are pioneering universal blockchain interoperability for the next era of Web3 applications.
