If I had to make 3 asymmetric investment bets for the next 3 years, I would invest in the following 3 assets.

A 🧵 2/ The following is not financial advice; it is simply the result of many hours of research, consolidated into a summarised personal investment thesis.

I have attached a few said resources for you to research yourself.

DYOR.

Dive into a hub of ecosystem overviews, technical breakdowns, and open and honest DeFi stories.

Constantly updated. Always evolving.

A Mega 🧵 of DeFi 🧵 The AppChain thesis.

The rise of liquid-staked derivatives is inevitable.

And @Balancer technology is primed to become the hub.

A 🧵 2/ Why hold $ETH when you can hold an interest-bearing version?!

With a likely rampant rise in Liquid taking tokens, certain protocols will likely see an influx of capital.

And quite simply, @Balancer tech offers the most efficient hub.

Imagine a token that has constant buy demand.

Is pivotally ingrained in an evolved lending market, a next-generation CDP stablecoin, a yield asset manager and an innovative new yield primitive. 

A 🧵 2/ The @ByteMasons are a team that has become synonymous with building highly respected DeFi protocols. 

Most notably, the yield optimising @Reaper_Farm and borrowing and lending market, @GranaryFinance.

LSDs are all the hype right now.

But are you too late to the trade?

Let's break down the narrative and the protocols you should keep an eye on.

A 🧵 2/ So, why is there a narrative around LSDs anyway?

Comparatively to other networks, $ETH falls far behind on the staking ratio of the network.

A pivotal reason behind this is the inability to withdraw staked funds.

Most DEXs are constrained in their ability to generate sustainable protocol revenue.

@Balancer technology unlocks a profitable solution.

A 🧵 2/ In a stagnant bear market, swap volume subsides considerably. DEXs protocol revenue falls.

But, unlike other DEXs that are purely reliant on swap fees to generate protocol revenue,

DEXs that implement Balancer tech unlock the ability to take a protocol fee on all IB tokens.

Why is Michael J Bury predicting another economic crash?

Let's break it down.

A 🧵 2/ Most notably famous for shorting the Great Financial Crash in 2008,

Michael Bury is a name that instantly generates respect in the financial realm.

A recent tweet (that was then deleted) hinted that he expects another crash in all equity markets.

Why?

With $6 billion in TVL, the $BNB chain is positioned to become a dominant force of DeFi.

But, it still lacks truly decentralised and efficient infrastructure.

@ThenaFi_ is a promising project launching imminently that aims to change this.

A 🧵 2/ In this thread, we will break down:

🔹 What is ThenaFi?
🔹 Tokenomics 
🔹 Upcoming Airdrop
🔹 Revenue sharing NFTs

DeFi is a realm of unbound financial creativity.

Let's break down a novel new mechanism that amplifies and optimizes yield in an innovative new way.

Here is everything you need to know about @ChickenBonds.

A 🧵 First off, let's make sure we know what a bond is. 

A bond is a financial instrument in which an investor loans money to a borrower.

Join me for a story of life, leverage, loss, and leaps of faith.

A 🧵 2/ In June, I dropped out of an Aerospace degree to pursue a career in DeFi.

I had less than $1000 to my name.

I had no job lined up. No safety. No security.

My girlfriend left me.
