In this episode, the 0xResearch team dives into the world of Solana DeFi, exploring the potential of undervalued tokens and discussing the disconnect between quality products and token valuations. The conversation also covers Polymarket's impressive growth, Arbitrum's controversial $250M gaming fund, and the risks exposed by Linnea's recent sequencer pause. The analysts examine the challenges facing crypto gaming adoption and debate the merits of meme coins versus prediction markets. Finally, they discuss Vertex's innovative approach to solving liquidity fragmentation across different chains.
