Puffer Mainnet & Their Big Move Redeeming $1.7B of stETH
Amir Forouzani and Jason Vranek are CoFounders of Puffer Labs. Justin Drake is a Researcher at The Ethereum Foundation.
In this episode, we cover Puffer Finance's Mainnet launch in May, as well as their ongoing campaign to redeem $1.7 billion of stETH to be converted to pufETH. Joined by Justin Drake from The Ethereum Foundation, we discuss why decentralization still matters, and how Puffer's protocol hopes to further contribute to decentralizing the Ethereum network.
