$TRUE is a rare asymmetric trade in crypto right now.
Defillama's website traffic of native users and Trueo tech is a unique partnership.
Trueo lacks liquidity. But Defillama might be the missing piece to jump start the liquidity machine.
The first 10 days of our DefiLlama partnership served mostly as a market survey experiment.
A sliver of its full potential, if you will.
And despite the conservative launch, @Trueo_ is seeing material growth.
Heading into the New Year, we’re going to ramp up this integration.
More markets. More categories. More liquidity.
We’re just getting started. So much more to come 🫡
Bad advice @andreijikh to avoid DeFi.
Spreading yourself across CEXs is debatably more dangerous. With DeFi, I just would not deposit too large a balance on any one DeFi app, ie. perps DEX or money market without knowing the risks.
With CEXs, you just hope they’ll cover the losses like Binance but you can easily hold tokens in cold storage and rely on DEX aggregators like @CoWSwap when you need to trade.
USDx is operating normally through the Binance incident.
~25% of USDx backing sits on Binance, within our venue risk limits. Even if Binance covered nothing, the impact on backing would be at most ~1.1%.
Binance has committed to covering every loss, so we expect no impact. USDx mint and redemptions remain open.

If I won't put my own money through it, we don't ship the integration.
That's the bar at @OctavFi. Walked through it on @Edge_Pod with @DeFi_Dad.

Appreciate @DeFi_Dad and @Nomaticcap for the sit-down.
We talked real positions, not theory and how @OctavFi keeps the books clean when money hops wallets and protocols.

✨ Featuring @OctavFi CoFounder and CEO @mbaril010

I would love to have recorded something on the Binance hack today and the market reaction, but honestly who cares.
It's gonna be the main topic on every other channel, and it will dominate headlines for weeks, but inevitably not much changed overnight. We're still here.
I think the market likely bottomed too if a $6B hack can't shake us, which means we have precious time to position ourselves and capitalize on what's ahead.
Study up on how to use powerful DeFi tools like @DeriveXYZ to compound returns for your major holdings.
This convo is just that--deep in the trenches with a DeFi professional investor and builder (@mbaril010) on how he's been capitalizing on tokenized stock trading LPs with RHC, onchain options, and the recent launch of @tacticallsXYZ, a kind of FOMO app for options.
Enjoy! 👊

Went deep with @DeFi_Dad and @Nomaticcap on The Edge Pod.
My DeFi playbook: options, Uniswap LPs, tokenized stocks and why I personally test every app @OctavFi integrates before we ship it.
New @Edge_Pod!
@mbaril010 tests every app integrated by @OctavFi, a customizable DeFi portfolio tracker and data provider.
So what is he investing his money into?
We dig into his DeFi playbook, from tokenized stock LPs to options, plus a demo of @tacticallsXYZ, "a newer FOMO app for options."

Wake up
Binance hacked for like 6B
Expect price down 30%
Down 3%
Not sure if strength or the nuke is just delayed
If price isn't down significantly by Monday bottom of this bear market probably already in
Might just have to go through hell chop to digest this
