Yes it does. The co-founder and CEO of LayerTwo Labs is Drivechains creator Paul Sztorc, https://layertwolabs.com/about

He's brilliant developer, but regarded as a cry-baby by the Bitcoin community because, in conferences, it's the way he complains why BIP-300/301 are not being considered by the Core Developers. It's just he lacks some social skills in my opinion.

Been working in fintech (and then later crypto with a big question mark) and it does seem that this lack of social skills is not uncommon with developers, or the C-level suits heading these companies/projects... sometimes I wonder even if deliberately so.

Used to wonder why these Bitcoin sides seemed to take forever to take hold, even looking back at RSK days (and when picked up again result in Ordinals heh). Today I "understand" it's really because "core" simply doesn't see it as critical, and I'm inclined to agree.

Most recently am curious about Drivechains but also the private key-based products developed by Synonym (though I suspect it has Bitfinex links)
