Brent Xu, Founder at Umee


Listen Later

Brent Xu is the founder of Umee. Xu previously spent time with ConsenSys and Cosmos (ATOM-USD) before launching the Cosmos-based lending protocol, Umee. In this conversation, Brent and I talked about what Umee is and how the token has utility within the lending platform. Other topics we covered during the call include but are not limited to:

  • Brent's professional/crypto background
  • Why DeFi is disruptive to traditional finance
  • How Umee specifically is combating the kind of Oracle attacks that drained Mango Markets (MNGO-USD)
  • The future of multi-chain as an idea
  • Is proof of stake a security?
  • Blockchain disruption beyond finance?
  • Can DeFi eventually overtake mortgage lending or automotive lending?
  • This was a very interesting conversation and I hope you guys enjoy it. For the full version of this podcast and the entire show archive, you can subscribe to my Seeking Alpha marketplace, BlockChain Reaction:
