Aave has made waves in the world of decentralized finance (DeFi), transforming the space with its groundbreaking lending and borrowing protocol. With the addition of USDT as collateral, Aave is further strengthening its ecosystem, providing Aave users with increased stability and flexibility.

DeFi. It’s a buzzword, it’s a revolution, and for many, it’s a scary black box. And right at the center of it all is Aave, with its lending/borrowing code. And now, it's doubling down on USDT. Could this be their first step towards real financial inclusion? Or replacing sinking ships...
Is DeFi on Sui truly leveling the playing field, or simply building a new one? Truthfully, I’ve been thinking about that question for many years now. In fact, it would be very difficult to ignore the Total Value Locked (TVL) increasing exponentially from $25 million to more than $2.1 billion....
Okay, let's talk about Sui. Now everyone’s talking about the DeFi boom. It’s still very notable to see how quickly it has climbed in TVL to over $2 billion, recently overtaking Avalanche and Polygon! Hold on a second, we want to say. I’m not saying it’s all smoke and mirrors,...
Sui has quickly emerged as a front-runner in the decentralized finance (DeFi) race. In 2023, it has continued its explosive growth and currently sits as the third-largest non EVM chain by Total Value Locked (TVL).

Let's talk about XRP. I know, I know, we’ve all heard this drumbeat for a long time. I want to cut through the noise and address something fundamental that's holding it back from truly blossoming in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space: its pre-mined model.No Mining: Community Left Out?Think about Bitcoin....
XRP, originally called Ripple, is a digital asset developed by Ripple Labs in 2012. Unlike Bitcoin, it is not dependent on mining in order to function. When it launched, all 100 billion tokens of XRP were pre-mined. This means that new tokens can no longer be generated as a result...
I've been watching the crypto space for years, and while there are legitimate innovations, there's also a worrying trend of repackaged risk marketed as easy money. XRP is going to take over the international payments system. Today it’s associated with “liquidity mining,” which produces all sorts of risk indicators and...
