January 26, 2021 #24 Dillon Kellar from Indexed Finance on Building An Autonomous DeFi Index Protocol
In this episode I talk to Dillon Kellar from Indexed Finance.

Indices are probably the hottest product category in the DeFi space right now.

Probably everyone knows indices or ETFs from the traditional world like the S&P500. They track the performance of entire market sector or baskets of assets.

By doing so they allow investors to get exposure in a passive way without having to actively manage their portfolio everyday, buying and selling various assets. An index takes care of that.

DeFi indices are even more interesting because they are decentralised and let governance token holders key factors such as which indices to deploy next, how to manage them and so on.

Indexed is one of the most interesting index projects right now - it rose from $0 to $17m in less than a month!

In this episode we talk about this incredible journey.

January 12, 2021 #23 Jack Lipstone from Rari Capital on Building a Yield Aggregating Machine
In this episode I talk to Jack Lipstone one of the founders behind Rari Capital

Rari is a lending protocol aggregator promising to always get the best interest rates for their for users who trust Rari with their crypto assets.
Since there are multiple lending protocols in the DeFi space, each having different interest rates, it can be quite time consuming for users to always move their assets between apps as soon as interest rates change

Rari automates this process and deposits user asset in whatever protocol delivers the best rate: whether it’s Compound, Save, DyDx or stable

That’s how it is able to consistently offer interest rates between 15-20% on dollar stable coin deposits
In the episode we talk about Jack’s experience as a 19 year old founder in DeFi, about the fierce competition among lending aggregators and what Rari has in the pipeline to get ahead of the competition in 2021.

December 02, 2020 #20 Kevin Chou, Founder of Rally on The Potential of the "Creator Economy"
In this episode I talk with Kevin Chou, the founder of Rally, a platform for creators to build next generation community economies.

Using Rally, creators can launch a token, distribute or sell it to their fans, receive donations denominated in that token and use a whole set of tools to create special experiences for their fans. For example, they can reward fans who engage a lot with them on social media, watch a lot of Twitch content or buy the creator’s merchandise.

The point is that using tokens, creators can rewards fans and align incentives. Fans become not only emotionally vested in the creators success but also financially.

In the episode, we talk about Kevin’s experience pre-Rally building a multi-million gaming company, how the Rally platforms works, the potential of creator tokens and if he foresees any negative societal implications with creator tokens.
