The DeFi Daily

Well, Bitcoin hasn’t hit 20k yet so we’re putting a small pause on our Bitcoin 20k watch to talk about Visa’s foray into Crypto currency with a new USDC backed card, Auditors are getting death threats because…they audited and disclosed a vulnerability…and 1Inch raised a bunch of money!

Bitcoin is still under 20k, but don’t worry, YFI is gobbling up all the DeFi coins out there! Plus, Venezuela is mining crypto currency, Ethereum 2.0 successfully launched, and Grayscale is still trading at a 1,000% premium to the price of the underlying assets…WHY!?

Bitcoin hits a new all-time high, when are we going to see it break $20k? Plus, Pat and Amy talk about a Compound attack, Niall Ferguson is out there shilling the hell out of Bitcoin, and more institutions are getting into crypto.

In what we believe is an industry first, the Cover insurance program for DeFi is paying out after the Pickle hack. Plus, Pat and Amy ponder if Coinbase crashing yesterday heralds the start of the official bull run, OkEx says they will start with Transfers (Pat is skeptical), and Cronje has a new project coming […]

Pickle is the most recent entrant into the DeFi Hack of Fame, losing $20mil over the weekend. Plus, ETH 2.0 is ready to roll, Bitcoin Cash ABC is suffering a super interesting economic / DOS attack, and why the hell is XRP up 50%?!

Amy and Pat talk about the new SEC guidelines on accredited investors, then go on to pontificate about Huobi’s interest in bedraggled South Korean exchange Bithumb, wax philosophical about DeFi price movements, and look! – another rich guy is getting into crypto.

The UNI diaspora begins, and Amy and Pat are there to cover it! Plus, more exchange execs going to jail in the US, the ZCash halvening (zhalveing?), and the ECB is checking out a CBDC.

Bitcoin crosses $18k briefly, and Pat and Amy are there to celebrate! This was an action packed show with discussion about Binance closing off US access, a big hack of OUSD, Pat rants about Blockchain voting (spoiler alert: he really doesn’t think the world is ready for it), and Polychain is investing in YFI, what’s […]

Pat and Amy discuss the most recent flash loan based economic attack against Value DeFi (after they posted a twitter thread about how they totally couldn’t be flash loan attacked), then pat offers some heartfelt congrats to the BCH community for powering through the BCH ABC “attack”, and even more congrats to Zapper.fi for raising […]
