DeFi Decoded - UST Loses its Peg, Can it be Saved? Plus putting the Bitcoin "Crash" In Perspective


Listen Later

On this week’s episode of DeFi Decoded, Andrew and Alex dive into the recent collapse of UST, which failed to hold its value to the US Dollar (the "de-pegging") and discuss the knock-on effects in the rest of the crypto market. Andrew talks about how stablecoins are like the Wildcat Banking days of yore.
