The DeFi Daily

Amy and Pat talk about the recent major Ethereum outage, then Pat is forced to admit that maybe PayPal is going to be good for the crypto ecosystem.

Amy and Pat take on the big news of the day, UNI yield farming will soon dry up and a LOT (like, a billion dollars a lot) of money is about to hit the DeFi markets? Plus, another flash-loan economic attack on a smart contract, and Pat makes wild predictions about blockchain stock markets.

ConsenSys is getting into the CBDC game big time, and Australia and Lebanon are tagging along. Plus, Ripple is failing to make a ripple (Pat hates puns but made that one, winter madness is starting to set in apparently), and we answer a great tweet about REN.

Pat and Amy take a break from politics to talk about some recent developments around Quadringa (you remember them, right?) and Tether (ya, they’re getting sued). Plus, they chat about how Bitcoin and DeFi are correlated, and wow is Bitcoin on a roll!

After a long week off watching the news and drinking, Pat and Amy talk all about the election, its effect on the crypto markets, and how the crypto betting markets faired.

Amy and Pat discuss Bitcoin’s 12th birthday, have a good chuckle at the Trump website hack, talk about AAVE, and would you look at that, Iran is getting into Bitcoin. Happy Halloween!

Pat and Amy spend almost the whole episode talking about a report from Forbes today detailing efforts by Binance to (at best) obfuscate their US operations – but give them credit, Tai Chi is an awesome code name for a secret plan against the US Government!

Amy and Pat talk about the recent moves in Bitcoin and how that could be related to energy supplies in China, plus they look at Ripple and how that blockchain is trying to get in on the DeFi market, and end with a nice discussion about rating DEXes.

Bitcoin hits a 2020 all-time high of 13,800, OpenZeppelin releases some really cool developer tooling, and fixed-rate DeFi borrowing is hitting the blockchains!

If you’d listened to our show on Friday, you would have pulled all your money from Harvest and be living it up today as Harvest suffers at $24M hack. Pat and Amy cover the hack in-depth, Eth 2.0, and how prediction markets are going nuts with the US presidential election.
