DeFi Unites While the Ethereum Foundation Keeps on Selling

About this episode

The episode discusses the collaboration in DeFi and critiques the current state of the Bitcoin conference.

Grant’s back with Alex and Eli to talk about DeFi United and how Stani, Aave and the wider industry have banded together to save the day. But people are still just never happy, are they? Anyway, apparently the Bitcoin conference is garbage this year, RWAs is the dumbest name of all time and we’re going to Miami next week. Spotify and links to follow all below.
