Did a deep dive on Epicenter about DeFi resurgence and how Gearbox reimagines composable leverage / onchain credit. No trust scores, only math! Honored and proud to have been on Epicenter with Meher Roy, thanks to the Epicenter and Chorus One teams 🫂

PS: the modularity and other concepts you see these days with lending-like protocols are not exactly new. Every second protocol was like that already a year ago. It’s just that, unlike infra, DeFi is (sadly) tangible, hence you can’t just get away with narratives. So where narratives stop and UX begins, the former quickly falls as there is need to somewhat handhold users or offload the problem onto another team. At the end of the day, modularity is there and will be there, but UX is an obstacle. See Aave, leading by example.
Also did a recording with Joel and Saurabh a few months back that they only released now. That one was on communities, narratives… and us being skeptical on Solana just before it did a 20x lmao. Midwit fucks.
