  • Liquity V2: A BOLD Step Forward For A DeFi Pioneer

    Michael Svoboda is CEO at Liquity AG and Max Fiege is Head of Growth.

    In this episode, we get an exclusive sneak peek at Liquity V2 and its game-changing innovations set to launch in November. Michael and Max break down how they built this new, unstoppable CDP-based protocol on the foundation of Liquity V1, but with a more capital-efficient borrowing design. Thanks to user-set interest rates, support for LSTs as collateral, and a new sustainable real yield mechanism, Liquity V2 looks nearly ready to issue billions more in DeFi loans and stablecoins.

  • What If Tether Was Owned By Its Users? The Vision for Usual

    Pierre Person and Adli Takkal Bataille are the CoFounders of Usual.

    In this episode, we review the grand vision behind Usual to rebuild Tether, but one that is fully owned and governed by its users onchain. Although Tether (USDT) and Circle (USDC) generated over $10B in revenue in 2023, none of this wealth is shared with the users who contribute to their success. Meanwhile, Usual sees the opportunity to reimagine Tether as a permissionless, decentralized stablecoin called USD0, along with a product for capturing T-Bill yield called USD0++. With $240M TVL in its first few months, we ask the CoFounders why they're the right team to build it and how we can get involved.

  • MetaDAO: Why The World Needs Decision-Making Markets

    Proph3t is the anonymous Founder of MetaDAO.

    In this episode, we discuss one of our favorite trending projects in crypto, MetaDAO, and why the world needs decision-making markets. Inspired by American economist Robert Hanson who proposed the idea back in 2000 to "vote on values, but bet on beliefs," MetaDAO is the first project to put this into practice, where anyone can create, manage, and participate in futarchies.
