DeFi Slate Fam:

The Bitcoin maximalist vs. Etherean wars have only just begun.

For us neutral parties, its clear that the battle is not BTC vs. ETH its us vs. the banks. Why fight internally when we can collab for the betterment of the entire community?

Regardless of what the maxi’s say, Ethereum is literally swallowing Bitcoin daily.

Fixed rate lending is something blossoming on Ethereum…

And Notional Finance is ready to take advantage of this new DeFi world.

Enjoy!

DeFi has so so much more than the 2017 ICO mania:

– TVL flywheel ponzinomics
– Fully working products
– Governance & profit sharing
– Less # of tokens = more $$$ concentrated in a smaller place
– Sexier narrative

How will AMMS incentivize LPs to continue to be LPs?

Well…there's a few ways:

– token subsidies (imagine $UNI tokens given to LPs who are suffering IL)
– IL insurance (similar concept)
– incentivizing stablecoin-asset pairs to slow IL
– getting BETTER orderbooks in DeFi

Recent trend amidst borrowing and lending platforms:

Adding their own governance tokens to their platform

See $COMP & now $cCOMP & $AAVE & now $aAAVE

Why? Few reasons imo…to lockup more supply, increase TVL, incentivize more usage of platform👍https://t.co/nFjoJ4Dmaq
