Brian Fabian Crain and Michael Egorov, Curve Finance founder, discuss Curve's origins: solving inefficient DAI/USDC swaps after MakerDAO borrows by creating a DeFi AMM for stablecoins and LSTs. It hit 1M TVL with a bonding curve concentrating liquidity at 1:1, more effective for pegged assets than Uniswap. Features grew to include BTC wrappers, stETH pairs, and crvUSD (a CDP stablecoin with reversible liquidations & a peg-keeper). Governance uses veCRV: Locking CRV grants voting power proportional to lock duration, a mechanism now refined in Yield Basis. Yield Basis solves impermanent loss in volatile pools (e.g., BTC/crvUSD). Users deposit BTC; the protocol borrows crvUSD, pairs it at 2x leverage (50% debt/equity), and uses LP tokens as collateral. This gives 1:1 asset tracking, while fees accrue from auto-rebalancing arbitrage. Simulations show 20%+ APY (may decline as BTC volatility drops) under a $50B TVL cap. It complements Curve by directing veCRV incentives to crvUSD pools, enhancing liquidity, fees, and DAO revenues. Key considerations: manual migrations, deterring forks, and dev support to scale. Topics Discussed 00:00 Introduction to Curve Finance and YieldBases 02:24 Understanding Curve's Unique Mechanisms 07:58 The Concept of veTokenomics 15:27 Lessons Learned from Building Curve 22:20 Exploring YieldBasis and Its Innovations 29:47 Understanding Yield Basis and Collateralization 32:25 Navigating Market Volatility and Liquidation Events 35:32 Metrics and Performance Insights of Yield Basis 38:35 Scaling Yield Basis: Future Directions 40:33 Yield Expectations and Market Dynamics 43:12 Potential Growth and Liquidity Challenges 46:18 Expanding to Other Chains and Governance Tokens 49:35 The Symbiotic Relationship with Curve 54:31 Upcoming Milestones and Future Developments Links Mentioned Michael Egorov on X Curve Finance Yield Basis Gnosis Epicenter - All Episodes SponsorsGnosis: Building decentralized infrastructure since 2015.

Why did she choose to start translating the Bitcoin Standard by Saifedean Ammous, and how many months did it take her to finish this task? What experiences in her fiat career led her to discover Bitcoin and quit everything she had been doing to launch herself headfirst into finding a role in the Bitcoin ecosystem? A huge thank you to Teruko for coming on the show and for all that she is doing for Bitcoin.

In this episode of the Once Bitten podcast, Daniel Prince interviews Teruko, a key organizer for BTC Japan and a translator of the Bitcoin Standard, about her work in promoting Bitcoin adoption in Japan, her involvement with Folga Ventures, and ANAP, a Japanese clothing brand integrating Bitcoin into its business model. Key Topics: Bitcoin Standard translation Folga Ventures ANAP business model Bitcoin conferences Tokyo Bitcoin Base Summary: In this episode of the Once Bitten podcast, Daniel Prince interviews Teruko, a key organizer for BTC Japan and a translator of the Bitcoin Standard. Teruko recounts her entry into Bitcoin in 2017, initially driven by a market crash following her purchase, leading her to research and discover the transformative potential of Bitcoin through resources like Vijay Boyapati's "The Bullish Case for Bitcoin" and Saifedean Ammous's "The Bitcoin Standard." Teruko shares the story of translating "The Bitcoin Standard" into Japanese, a task initiated by Wids, who saw the book's potential impact on Japan. Despite lacking prior translation experience, Teruko undertook the project, dedicating significant time daily for six months. She faced challenges in accurately conveying Austrian economics terminology and cross-referencing footnotes with Japanese translations, often requiring visits to Japan's largest library. She also spoke about working with Safeadean, and having to exclude the part about transgenderism from the book, as it would be poorly received in Japanese society. Teruko discusses her work with Folga Ventures Japan, a venture capital firm investing exclusively in Bitcoin projects, with a focus on lightning technology, sidechains, and open-source projects. She highlights the challenge of finding Bitcoin companies in Japan and the importance of education to foster interest in Bitcoin and related businesses. Furthermore, Teruko elaborates on her involvement with ANAP, a Japanese clothing brand aiming to revive its business by integrating Bitcoin into its operations. ANAP is launching a new lifestyle brand inspired by Bitcoin's ethos, with subtle designs intended to pique customer curiosity about Bitcoin. The discussion shifts to the upcoming BTC Japan conference in Tokyo, organized by Teruko, emphasizing its aim to educate and provide hands-on Bitcoin experiences. The conference will feature speakers like Grant from the Bitcoin Policy Institute and Roger from "Will Mao Buy Bitcoin," along with Luke Dash Jr. and possibly Shinobi. Teruko also highlights the development of Tokyo Bitcoin Base, a co-working and co-living space aimed at creating a Bitcoin circular economy in Tokyo, including the acquisition of hotel properties to accommodate Bitcoin enthusiasts. Teruko emphasizes the importance of external influence in Japan's Bitcoin adoption, inviting individuals from Western countries to work at Tokyo Bitcoin Base and inspire local engagement with Bitcoin. She highlights efforts to legitimize Bitcoin within the neighborhood by hosting community-friendly events and educating residents about Bitcoin's potential. The episode concludes with a discussion on the need to approach Bitcoin in a sustainable way, especially in light of current distractions such as Bitcoin treasury companies and loan product offerings. Daniel encourages listeners to stack sats, take self-custody seriously, and draw inspiration from individuals like Teruko who are building and promoting Bitcoin adoption through education, conferences, and community engagement. He also promotes upcoming Bitcoin conferences like BitFest in Manchester and encourages listeners to check out resources and services for stacking sats and taking self-custody.

Mentor Sessions Ep. 037: Michael Morelli on Rock Bottom Addiction Recovery, Building a Bitcoin-Powered Fitness Empire, Parallels to Sound Money & Radical LongevityMichael Morelli's Bitcoin journey mirrors his brutal addiction recovery: from high more than sober for a decade, snorting oxycodone amid bankruptcy and affairs, to a 113-day shred from 25% to 8% body fat—bootstrapping FitScript into a multimillion-dollar data-driven health empire coaching 600+ men with peak biomarkers while stacking BTC as a maxi since 2020. Inspired by Saifedean Ammous' "The Bitcoin Standard," Morelli draws logical parallels between paleo nutrition's ancestral simplicity and Bitcoin's finite, sound money—why it's the only asset that "just seems logical" in a fiat-fueled health and wealth disparity crisis. In this BTC Sessions interview, he busts carnivore myths (labs "fucking wrecked"), unpacks peptides for faster gains, red light therapy hacks, and his no-excuses mantra: if a coke-addicted bankrupt can rebuild to live until 150, stacking sats with low-time preference, Bitcoiners have zero excuses for subpar health.

Bitcoin just survived its first red October since 2018 — but “Moonvember” might melt faces. The Fed's quietly bailing out the system, Trump's calling for crypto dominance, and Peter Thiel says Bitcoin's done. He's wrong.

Wall Street couldn't stop Bitcoin — now it's trying to own it. From ETFs to “paper Bitcoin,” the same financial system Bitcoin was built to replace is sneaking back in.

In this episode of Bitcoin Simply, Dante Cook breaks down what's really happening in today's financial system and why it all points back to Bitcoin. As Warren Buffett offloads $184 billion in stocks and the Fed pumps another $50 billion into the system, Dante exposes the cracks forming in traditional finance and explains why Bitcoin stands as the ultimate escape hatch from a failing fiat world.SPONSORS✅ Ledn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.nmj1gs2i.com/9W598/9B9DM/?source_id=podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Simply Bitcoin clients get 0.25% off their first loanNeed liquidity without selling your Bitcoin?

From zero to 100K: The untold blueprint African entrepreneurs are missing to scale their businesses. In this revealing episode of Konnected Minds, we dissect why 90% of African businesses fail within their first five years - and more importantly, how to be part of the 10% that thrives. Our hosts pull no punches as they expose the harsh reality: most registered entities in Ghana aren't businesses at all, they're just paperwork collecting dust while founders wonder why customers aren't beating down their doors. The conversation takes a masterclass turn as we break down real-world scaling strategies, starting with a hair business owner targeting 400,000 cedis monthly. You'll discover why doing the math matters more than having dreams - 80 orders at 5,000 cedis each isn't magic, it's methodology. We reveal the BTC framework (Branding, Traffic, Conversion) that transforms wishful thinking into systematic growth, and why starting with paid ads beats waiting for organic traffic when you need revenue now. Critical insights covered: • Why optimizing for cash flow, not just sales, separates businesses from hobbies • The revolutionary power of internet marketing that African entrepreneurs are sleeping on • How one Udemy course and YouTube videos led to a first million - no MBA required • The AI scaling strategy that lets you be in 1,000 places at once • Why social proof through strategic giveaways beats traditional marketing • The personalized bot system that generates subscription revenue while you sleep We share the sobering truth about Ghana's entrepreneurial landscape: having a registered company means nothing if customers aren't your daily obsession. Drawing from real consulting experiences, including a business owner who exceeded revenue targets after implementing proper SOPs and systems, we demonstrate that scaling isn't about working harder - it's about building infrastructure that works without you. The episode crescendos with a live strategy session, showing exactly how to approach two businesses - one at zero revenue, another at 100K looking to scale. Whether you're selling hair extensions or building a consulting empire, the principles remain: clarity on numbers, systematic customer acquisition, and leveraging technology to multiply yourself. This isn't another motivational talk about entrepreneurship - it's a tactical breakdown of what actually moves the needle in African markets, where traditional business wisdom often falls short but digital opportunities are limitless.
