You've probably heard the narrative: CEXs are embracing DeFi, expanding access, innovating for the future. Sounds nice, doesn't it?CEXs are scared. Scared of competition, scared of a decentralized internet, scared of an ordered world where their intermediaries are no longer a requirement. They're reacting, yes, but their moves into "CeDeFi"...
We know that CEXs, or centralized exchanges, are attacking the DeFi sector in full force. This trend is transforming the whole crypto ecosystem. Behemoths such as Binance, Coinbase and Bybit are at the helm of this push, doing so with their own, varied approaches. This article describes the issues propelling...
We’re sold the narrative that DeFi is liberating, that it’s about real ownership. Are we naively marching into a world where that aspiration becomes yet another flavor-of-the-month marketing tagline? I'm seeing a worrying trend: CEXs, the very entities DeFi was supposed to disrupt, are now aggressively muscling their way into...
Centralized exchanges (CEXs) have reigned supreme in the world of cryptocurrency for quite some time. Unlike unregulated foreign exchanges, they offer users a controlled and well-known environment in which to trade digital assets. The emergence of decentralized finance (DeFi) has created both a challenge and an opportunity for these traditional...
CEXs entering DeFi? Big deal, right? Innovation! Progress! Collaboration! Wrong. Dead wrong. As someone who's been neck-deep in DeFi since before it was cool (and yes, I do spin some vinyl, the real kind), I see something else entirely: fear. Cold, hard, existential fear.CEXs are data hoarders. They have complete...
Remember the early days of the internet? Wild West, right? That’s how DeFi seemed just a few years ago. “Rug pulls” started entering the broader crypto lexicon. That’s starting to change and for the better. We know regulation can be a buzzkill but it’s the only way to find out...
The crypto world loves a good narrative, and Humanity Protocol's H token is dripping with one: a fairdrop revolution. Yet the promise is unmistakable. We will fight to reclaim airdrops from the arms of the bot armies and restore them to actual, live human beings. The method? Palm scans. Yes,...
A billion-dollar valuation for the ability to palm scan? No joke. While everyone’s chasing the next crypto unicorn, I can’t shake the feeling we're blindly galloping towards a future where our bodies are the ultimate key – and the ultimate target. Humanity Protocol’s H token has skyrocketed, partially fueled by...
It’s that same sort of exuberance you felt when you first heard about the metaverse. The fulfillment of digital utopia, being in touch with everyone on planet Earth through expansive online metaverses, creating prosperous virtual societies? It sounded revolutionary. Now, look at Horizon Worlds. Clunky avatars, digital tumbleweeds, and a...
Zuckerberg wants AGI. Personal superintelligence, he calls it. An AI that essentially runs your life. Sounds convenient, right? Maybe. But let's be brutally honest: entrusting the keys to your existence to a single, centralized entity – especially one with Zuckerberg's track record – is a recipe for disaster. Well, it’s...
Just as Mark Zuckerberg made headlines with a big pivot to the now overly-hyped Metaverse, he’s undertaking another big pivot. He’s recently been exploring the thrilling worlds of AI and AGI (Artificial General Intelligence). After the hype and billions of dollars, Meta’s Metaverse projects—especially Horizon Worlds—have found difficulty in attracting...

DeFi might seem like a remote world, but I’ll never forget being at a DeFi conference last year. The typical panicky lunge for registration lines, relatable uncomfortable small talk… but then, wait, what’s this. Rather than needing to keep up with a paper name tag, I simply scanned a QR...
