DeFi thread - Why I am calling the top (At least for now)
1/ DeFi is too difficult to use.
While traction for DeFi (AMM + deposits/yield) has grown tremendously over the past few months, DeFi is difficult to use, the ability to lose funds scares most new users away.
2/ A good example is when a user sends 1M USDT to a smart contract. Unlike ICOs in 2017, DeFi is much more difficult to use and I'm skeptical that it'll attain mass adoption.
1/9 Thread - Trading Alpha lies in areas neglected by people, this is probably why I don't use TA (because if everyone's doing it). While I post some of my thoughts and trades but I rarely give a 'satisfactory' answer on HOW I arrived at those calls, so here goes for a past trade
