DeFi Slate Fam:
We have some exciting news for y’all this week! In the midst of being around in this industry for several months now (were just getting started) we’ve decided to put together this guide so we can update it frequently with all the new content we post.
Next, we have our Yield Farming V2 Guide coming out shortly. Join our new Telegram channel here to get first dibs when that drops & other DeFi Slate exclusive content.
Also, while waiting for V2, you can get access to the V1 version of the guide when you join that channel!
We will be shutting down the discord for the foreseeable future as well.
As we are ramping up our podcasts, tutorials and more we are now creating and growing faster than ever!
Couldn’t have done it without each and every single one of y’all.
– Andy
