Mark these words: Maverick Protocol has the potential to dramatically change the fundamentals of DeFi. I can usually whip through 3-4 use cases for a protocol within minutes of understanding it, but Maverick gives me a headache, because the possibilities seem endless and more powerful than what we've seen before. And, that's a good thing! In this interview with Bob Baxley, one of the founders of Maverick, we walk through not only how they ended up creating Mav after a couple of pivots, but also the secret to their rapid growth into a top 5 dex in volume. Then we walked through several use cases that could dramatically change multiple segments of DeFi, which in turn led to several more ideas of use cases across the ecosystem. All of this is managed through a brilliant interface model that will blow you away! Being an LP sucks. While Uni V3 helped a bit, they are still only offering you rectangular models, while all the data suggests you need to be able to manage exponentially. LPs get stuck over and over again in impermanent loss and there's no way to avoid it. Mav can solve this. The number one complaint I hear from founders, is that rather than build, they spend all their time thinking about liquidity and tokenomics. Mav can solve this. Protocols in order to maintain liquidity have to constantly worry about maintaining price levels. Mav can solve this. Algo stablecoins like Liquity have basically had to hope and pray that the models they use will hold the peg, but what if you could draw a model that fit your peg profile perfectly. Mav can do this through boosted models that could beat anything available in the market. The list goes on and on and on. Once you start playing with the platform, you are going to think of another dozen ways that can improve the way you run your protocol, manage your positions, and much much more.

Ralf Kubli has been advocating for Switzerland to properly arbitrage its regulatory advantage in crypto and now the Casper Association is working to build a powerful enterprise focused chain that will take advantage of that. We discussed not only Casper, but also the future of crypto, regulation historically and where Ralf sees crypto going from here and its impact on the wider economic system. Some really powerful ideas and thoughts for how crypto navigates the future.

You are missing out - Join our community -> https://t.me/missiondefi On today's show: The Treasury Department released their split personality report on DeFi https://md1.to/treasreport Reading it though is difficult, so instead we rely on the legal experts from Brad's Crypto Legal List (https://md1.to/cryptolegal) DeFi Education Fund (@fund_defi) summarized most of it very nicely - https://md1.to/defifundtreas In addition, @Timccopeland noted the split personality of agreeing that most illicit activity doesn't happen on DeFi, while they claim it can happen on DeFi... Sigh - https://md1.to/opereas -------- Then we ran through how much @Coinbase is doing to protect DeFi and crypto legally and technically and read through @iampaulgrewal's thread on their legal filings in the #TornadoCash case - https://md1.to/cbtreas -------- In more news about Coinbase, we discussed an anonymous donor's gift of Base.ETH to the Base Chain (@BuildOnBase) to reward them for their focus on decentralization - https://md1.to/baseeth -------- We spent more time discussing what Coinbase is doing with Base and the potential it has as well as potential revenue models for it. -------- @CoWSwap, in collaboration with @beaverbuild and Agnostic Relayer launched MEVBlocker to protect you from Sandwich attacks and front running. A fantastic service that is now being integrated with dapps as well - https://md1.to/mevblocker -------- New Raises in DeFi Then we went old school and ran through a number of projects that have recently raised money to see if there are any of value in the mix. We use @DefiLlama to find these nuggets - https://md1.to/dlraises Projects Discussed: Carbonable (@Carbonable_io) is doing Real World investments to stem climate change with nice payouts over long periods and ownership secured by NFTs - https://md1.to/carbonable Radix (@radixdlt) recently had a raise, which we found interesting, since they haven't been much in the news of late. Developers with Rust skills can build on the project - https://md1.to/radix Another odd investment round is in Metaverse infrastructure provider @Hadeaninc. Neither Brad or Joe feel like there's much to do there, so were surprised by anyone putting money in at this stage, but there may be more there than what we can see - https://md1.to/hadean Brad and Joe love a good infrastructure investment, so they gave a thumbs up to a new round in @ParticleNtwrk - https://md1.to/particle They were also excited to see a Real World Asset (#RWA) play for @polytrade_fin that has a market for investing in invoice receivable a market that Brad and Joe are both high on seeing an integration into DeFi - https://md1.to/polytrade - $TRADE -------- Joe Cawley and Brad Nickel cover the DeFi news of the day, new opportunities in the space including liquidity pools, yield farming, staking, and much more.

Get ready to be blown away by the insights and frameworks Josh Rosenthal uses for building companies, investing, and understanding the full potential of crypto. His interviews on Bankless have created a storm of theories on how crypto plays out, based on the historical context of the Renaissance and the American Revolution. He takes that further in this interview with a presentation that reframes how we talk to others about crypto, by helping them see the value before they know what it is.
