The Unseen Risks of Restaking w/ Tarun Chitra
Tarun Chitra, Co-Founder & CEO of Gauntlet, joins us to talk about
the evolution of DeFi lending, the shift toward active vault management,
and recent high-profile security exploits like Resolve and KelpDAO. We
dive into the hidden risks of restaking protocols, the friction between
DAO ideologues and risk curators, open-source versus closed-source
infrastructure vulnerability, and how AI agents are shaping both
cyberattacks and defensive measures in Web3.
