I started speaking with @AcalaNetwork about coming on @theBlockcrunch.
After our first chat, it was clear @bettechentt & @ruitao_su were building something special that we wanted to get involved with.

4/ This allows additional use cases for while letting the asset remain staked for network security.
This is one of the newer financial primitives that more people will talk about and experiment with with ETH 2.0. Can’t wait to see how L-DOT trades 👀
