DeFi Slate Fam,

This one is awesome. We had the pleasure of chatting with Qiao Wang, a “semi-retired entrepreneur and quant trader, currently helping startups to grow”.

Qiao is able to formulate his ideas and thoughts on the greater markets into easy to understand bits and pieces for anyone to learn from.

We know we did!

In this episode we dive into the ins and outs of DeFi markets a whole, institutional interest, bitcoin vs. DeFi markets, yield farming, the future of DeFi, and the view of the global casino that is DeFi today.

Grab your popcorn & enjoy y’all 🤠

-Andy

Some popular tweets from Qiao:

Qiao Wang @QwQiao

Whenever you feel strong emotions like euphoria or depression while investing, write them down somewhere. Revisit your notes after a few years. You may find that they coincide with tops and bottoms. It’s perfectly natural to feel the emotions again. Trade against those emotions.

Qiao Wang @QwQiao

The infighting between the various crypto communities still baffle me to this day. In a nascent and paradigm-shifting industry the most rational behavior is to collaborate and to grow the pie together instead of focusing on gaining market share.

Qiao Wang @QwQiao

Simultaneously holding the following views: - BTC will remain the most valuable cryptoasset 10 years from now. - The most intellectually stimulating and challenging things in crypto will happen outside Bitcoin over the 10 years.

Qiao Wang @QwQiao

Wall Street is a giant casino but it’s a casino that’s deeply integrated with the real economy. DeFi lacks that. There needs to be more teams building bridges to the real world, in order for DeFi to fully fulfill its potential of becoming a global distributed casino.

Qiao Wang @QwQiao

In my experience most noobs who first learn about both Bitcoin and Ethereum think Ethereum is strictly superior to Bitcoin. Not saying Bitcoin is strictly superior either, but that’s what I tend to observe.
