  • Tokenised Ownership Is the Best Coordination Tool Since Equity 🤝, CurveDAO 💰 & Ampleforth Geyser 🌊

    Welcome back to another episode of your weekly Dose of DeFi 👋

    The place where we keep you, the builders and investors, up to date with all that goes on in this ecosystem!


    What we cover in today's podcast:

    Today we cover three very similar topics all with the undertone of tokenised ownership and how it's the best coordination tool since equity!

    We start from a theoretical standpoint with an amazing write-up from Julien (Investor at Fabric Ventures). We discuss Julien's post, why we think it's interesting and our learnings from it!

    Then we go deep into this topic as we consider governance challenges already emerging on decentralized finance protocols pioneering these mechanisms, such as Compound, Balancer, Curve and Ampleforth.


    Links mentioned :

    • Julien Thevenard shared an amazing post to dive into what it means: 📖 Tokenised ownership is the best coordination tool since equity
    • To dive more on the governance dimensions, you can explore the Bankless post, Brice mentioned: 🔮 The Life of a Protocol Politician
    • 💰 CurveDAO: You'll find the documentation about the Curve DAO & token here.


      • 🌊 AMPL Geyser:

      AMPL is a beast of its own. Here are some resources to help you learn more on the token and its incentivised Uniswap pool (the Geyser).

      • Official AMPL Basics Introduction
      • Another introduction to AMPL
      • Official AMPL Geyser Documentation
      • 1.85 Million deposits in a week

        • Tools: AMPL Rebalance Calculator, Zapper.fi (can be used to get into the Geyser, you still have to stake the pool tokens manually)
