  • DeFi: Borrowing and Lending Crypto Deserves Scrutiny and Caution

    September 4, 2020

    Crypto lending and borrowing in booming but the important questions are still the same: who are the lenders, and who are the borrowers? Why do they engage in these transactions?

    August 18, 2020

    UniSwap is a name you should know about if you are planning to get in on the current DeFi craze which seems to be defined, to an extent, by extraordinary gains and potentially extraordinary losses – YAM farming comes to mind! Gains in multiples are made in hours and days, not weeks and months like [...]

  • What is Decentralized Finance (DeFi)?

    August 10, 2020

    Decentralized finance, also known as DeFi, is a fast-growing sector of the cryptocurrency industry. While cryptocurrency coins create a decentralized store of value separate from any government-backed fiat currency, DeFi creates decentralized financial instruments separate from traditional centralized institutions.
