The world of decentralized finance (DeFi) is moving quickly. It’s all part of an effort to create a more inclusive economy by removing obstacles and expanding access to the financial ecosystem. Among those innovations, intent-based architecture emerges as one of the most exciting breakthroughs to hit the market. It looks...
I have been curious about the intersection of technology and humanity for as long as I can remember. Beyond academia, I have experience researching intricate systems and distilling them into clear, engaging stories. So it’s no surprise that the launch of UR by Mantle was an initiative that immediately piqued...
Mantle is the first-ever, fully decentralized, on-chain ecosystem and currently has just over $3 billion in Total Value Locked (TVL). It recently launched UR, the world’s first neobank that’s fully on the blockchain. This unique platform aims to bridge the gap between traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi). It...
Does UR actually democratize finance, or merely water down DeFi ideals? This should be the question the decentralized finance community should be asking itself right now. Mantle’s UR neobank is now live, with the potential to become the connective tissue between TradFi and DeFi. But rather, is it a benevolent...
Let’s face it, diving into DeFi today is like trying to build an IKEA bookshelf without the manual. You have a great idea that just needs to be executed, but the puzzle pieces are scattered everywhere. These rules are very confusing, and one misguided step could double the damage to...
You open your customized metaverse avatar, brimming with amazement. Now you’re all set to stake some ETH and earn rewards that will pay for your virtual land acquisition! Then, out of the blue, a pop-up appears yelling, “Your transaction is subject to SEC review!” Sounds ridiculous, right? That’s the stifling...
The blockchain space continues to change rapidly, and each new generation of platforms attempts to fix the shortcomings of their predecessors. The Casper Network has attracted a lot of buzz. Enterprises are already chomping at the bit to harness its groundbreaking blockchain technology beyond crypto for real-world applications. Since entering...

Of all the blockchain ecosystems battling for supremacy, Aptos is quickly becoming a favorite as a possible future disruptor of global finance. With its cutting-edge tech, high-profile partnerships, and use cases...
Consider the premise in the metaverse of entering a virtual art gallery. You spot an artwork you just need to add to your collection. Say goodbye to clunky crypto exchanges and confusing wallet strings. Now visualize doing it all with a convenient tap of a button. Imagine if, with a...
Let’s face it, the DeFi space is full of projects that have promised the moon and the stars. Shiny websites, proprietary jargon, and inflation-catchy returns. Then, six months later? Ghost town. Which is why, when I first learned about R0AR and their SmartAPY system, my first response was something along...
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...
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...
I’ve always been interested in the way art and technology can bring people together. My past as a graphic novel artist and writer showed me the impact visual storytelling can have on connecting with others. I never envisioned how powerful these digital collectibles could be – how they can be...
