DeFi Slate Fam:

Had the pleasure of sitting down with Joseph Weinberg, a true Bitcoin OG, and community member of the decentralized, open system world that we are building.

We talked about a few really interesting topics until at one point, my entire mind was blown.

Ideologies shifted.

Understanding flipped.

Here’s a hint: It has to do with ‘bridging the gap’ between our world & theirs…

Enjoy y’all & remember to take profits!!

DeFi has so so much more than the 2017 ICO mania: - TVL flywheel ponzinomics - Fully working products - Governance & profit sharing - Less # of tokens = more $$$ concentrated in a smaller place - Sexier narrative TO VALHALLA🚀 https://t.co/rFIrDlRxKg

Cope_Infinitum @CryptoMessiah

You guys have no idea what's coming... In 2017, every "good" project under 10m valuation went to 200m+ market caps. Some hit a billion. Defi pump 2 will make pump 1 look like child's play.

How will AMMS incentivize LPs to continue to be LPs? Well...there's a few ways: - token subsidies (imagine $UNI tokens given to LPs who are suffering IL) - IL insurance (similar concept) - incentivizing stablecoin-asset pairs to slow IL - getting BETTER orderbooks in DeFi

Recent trend amidst borrowing and lending platforms: Adding their own governance tokens to their platform See $COMP & now $cCOMP & $AAVE & now $aAAVE Why? Few reasons imo...to lockup more supply, increase TVL, incentivize more usage of platform👍
