😳 I like David. I feel badly you have to sift through that train wreck of replies.

😂 Not a single #DeFi project named on #Ethereum.

🤷‍♂️ Maxi vapor projects using the word “DeFi” are in vogue!

Here’s a list of projects interacting with hundreds of millions, if not billions...
1. DEX aggregators like @matchaxyz @1inchExchange @paraswap @DEXAG_TokenWire and now we offer one at @zapper_fi Exchange

2. Decentralized perpetual markets like @MonteCarloDEX @dydxprotocol and soon again @futureswapx
7. Leading lending platforms like @AaveAave and @compoundfinance

8. DeFi insurance / hedging with @NexusMutual, @opyn_ and @HegicOptions

9. Swaps/automated yield-earning assets like yVaults by @iearnfinance, @CreamdotFinance Swaps to yVaults, and @zapper_fi Zaps/Exchange
10. Soon @epnsproject will enable decentralized notifications by wallet—enabling marketing and product related notifications without giving up data and based upon what’s in your wallet.

@HAL_team is a cool centralized product of what I described above
Lastly highly recommend you get to know Zaps at Zapper.fi/invest which offers 1-2 clicks to automate LP deposits/withdraws within @UniswapProtocol, @BalancerLabs, @iearnfinance and @CurveFinance.
Watch @Yield_TV today at 1 pm EST and I’ll have @MickdeG010 of @PieDAO_DeFi on to show off how they create baskets of exposure using @BalancerLabs at tv.zapper.fi.
Oh and I left off NFTs but that’s obviously an incredible rabbit hole to go down.

@opensea
@DontBuyMeme
@mintbase
@rariblecom
@ZooToken
@cryptovoxels
@token_smart (great community to join!)

Barely the tip of the iceberg above!
Just for the hell of it and I know you know @synthetix_io but for the #DeFi newbies there’s $120M of derivatives trading on Synthetix.exchange with $620M TVL.

🤔 So many options with restaking into @eigenlayer.

😋 Protocols with a track record of credibility.

🤑 Protocol likely to launch tokens.

@ether_fi
@swellnetworkio
@KelpDAO
@puffer_finance (soon 👀)

😎 So which do you choose? Here's a few ideas...

👋 Before I share more, be aware that restaking is not actually restaking--yet. These are pools of staked ETH are sitting in EigenLayer until product(s) go live later in 2024.

🚨 I would consider EL deposits high risk compared to simply holding an LST (ie centralization, bugs).
1/ Ranked #10 among top ETH LSTs, @ether_fi is my shortcut to playing the EigenLayer airdrop with gas savings.

eETH is an all-in-one liquid staking / restaking token.

Just deposit ETH for eETH and you're done!

No need to restake an LST on EL and pay $50 of gas.

eETH earns EL points and EtherFi Loyalty Points.

Plus, one can LP with eETH on Curve, Balancer, Maverick and borrow against it on Gravita.

👉 Learn more about and get 100 points per 0.1 ETH staked here (or make your own referral link). ether.fi

Bear market stuff 👀
Another, makes no sense to me.

$POOL priced at $5M while new founders are raising at $20M-$50M without a live product.
$FLX at $11M FDV

✊ In keeping with the very positive narrative to design for "real yield" in DeFi, @Barn_Bridge v2 just launched!

📈 It means one can earn sustainable fixed interest!

⌛️ Here's how with 20 hrs left to deposit for Epoch 1...
1/ @Barn_Bridge v2 advances DeFi fixed income.
🧠 Fixed rates are simple + sustainable
⚖️ Fixed positions are borrowable on Aave and soon on @fiatdao so users can get secondary liquidity and leverage positions
🌽 Yield is earned during the prior epoch, guaranteeing the fixed rate
2/ There are two sides to each pool in BB v2.

🧑‍🌾 Fixed yield position farmers
🌉 LP position* to power the fixed yield

*Additionally @Barn_Bridge DAO will provide liquidity to create higher APYs but the DAO doesn’t earn any yield from its deposits.

📈 Despite the growth and adoption of DeFi money markets, there's still massive room for improvement with capital efficiency.

🦋 @MorphoLabs is a newer p2p matching layer on @AaveAave + @compoundfinance that solves for the large spread paid by borrowers vs earned by lenders.
With @MorphoLabs...
☑️ Lenders earn more
☑️ Borrowers pay less
☑️ Liquidity and liquidation guarantees remain the same

It's a win-win! But the issue atm is a lack of liquidity, likely due to awareness of the solution.

So check out the rates below! It's a no-brainer for me.
😎 For new lenders on @MorphoLabs Aave or Compound markets, they'll initially earn the base supply rate on the respective money market until their liquidity is matched, and then begin to earn higher, sustainable interest.

In an uncertain world seemingly propped up by money printing, I can't imagine ignoring the new Web3 economy, most notably Ethereum-based DeFi.

It's a haven of experimentation yielding net wealth creation, affected but not dependent on forces driving traditional markets.

👀
1/ You don't need to be an economist or mathematician in 2022 to see DeFi's stickiness with users and continued growth.

Like email for money, DeFi promises to be faster, more accessible, and optimistically speaking, more resilient thanks to trustlessness and transparency. ImageImage
2/ DeFi is:

☑️ Faster in terms of settlement thx to a blockchain

☑️ More accessible but hinges on Internet access for all

☑️ More resilient with instant auditability and coming real-time detection for security & operational monitoring thx to teams like @FortaNetwork
