  • Why DeFi? | TradFi to DeFi Podcast - Episode 1

    In episode 1 of the TradFi to DeFi podcast, we dive into three important ideas that make crypto and the DeFi ecosystem special: 

    1. decentralization, 
    2. permissionlessness, and 
    3. censorship resistance. 

      4. What makes crypto different than the legacy financial system? What are some of the philosophies underlying this new technology? And how does it provide a better way to engage with financial tools? We discuss this and more!
