Hi everyone, we are back with another episode of our podcast allowing you to get to know people working behind the scenes of the crypto industry.   Today we are joined by Akash Mahendra who is the Portfolio Manager at the digital wealth platform Yield App, as well as Director of the Haven1 Foundation where he leads strategy, operations, and risk management efforts in support of Haven1. 

Welcome to the 157th episode of the Inside Crypto Podcast. This episode was recorded on June 28th, 2023. Defi has had numerous security issues over the last two years which is the issue Haven1 plans to tackle. They have a multi-layer security approach that looks to match the standards that regulators expect.

Thanks, everyone for listening, and don’t forget to tune in next week when we interview Anik Dang, the co-founder, and CEO of Reneverse. 

Topics Covered Today:

We have to talk about the two keywords when someone visits your website. What do you mean Haven1 is secure and regulated? Let’s touch on secure first…

What about regulated?

While preparing the script, I had a look at Peckshield and they mention some Tier-1 NFTS being stolen. When is security going to be fixed in Defi?

For those in the audience who haven’t done their research, tell us about Haven1.

Why build an EVM-compatible chain? Why not just build on Ethereum itself or one of the existing layer 2 solutions?

What’s it like building the Haven1 ecosystem out? What have the challenges been?

You haven’t quite launched yet, what’s the roadmap looking like and when do you expect to launch?

You're based in Australia, what’s the reception been like there to crypto? What about the events of 2022? The market looks like it is turning around, is there a bit of optimism in your circles?
