Quotes from the episode:

“I believe crypto is building a new economy. And every single economy in the world needs insurance because it allows other people to take risks, to like, you know, there's risks that they can't manage. And so it allows people to take risks and actually build new stuff.” [00:07:00]

“If you buy cover on SushiSwap, you get coverage on any of the seven all sorts chains that it's on, same with Aave and any other multi-chain deployment.” [00:15:51]

“We're looking to redo some of the core mechanics, just really make them DeFi native and have a stake in mechanics. Delegated staking is probably going to be a big one at the core level. ” [00:36:12]
