The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recently convened a roundtable discussion called “DeFi and the American Spirit.” While quite the contrarian take, this event does imply that the SEC will be more receptive to a regulatory DeFi innovation-friendly jurisdiction approach in the United States. The event highlighted the importance of...

Unsurprisingly, the champagne corks are popping in DeFi circles. Investor speculation in Ethereum governance tokens is at an all-time high. More recently, the community buzzes with rumors of an “innovation exemption” to be provided by the SEC. Before we pop the champagne on this regulatory enlightenment, let’s temper our enthusiasm....
What’s happening in the world of decentralized finance (DeFi) is changing too fast to keep up with. New innovations keep introducing new regulatory challenges to the field. Among the most exciting things on the horizon is the possible establishment of a new nationwide “innovation exemption.” The Securities and Exchange Commission...
Okay, let's talk DeFi. We've all seen the headlines: Ethereum governance tokens are surging, and whispers of an "innovation exemption" from the SEC are making the rounds. As someone who's been building in this space for years – and yes, even spun a few tracks as a DJ back in...
Just erase all your preconceived notions of fiat finance. Seriously. Because what's brewing on Solana, particularly with Kamino lending, isn't just different – it's a paradigm shift waiting to happen.

The SEC might as well be flirting with a DeFi “innovation exemption.” Is this a lifeline for a thriving ecosystem, or a wolf-in-sheep’s-clothing noose? We all want innovation, but at what price? Is this the real effort they are making to foster growth? Or is it more like a regulatory...
The SEC, softening its stance? It’s akin to seeing a grizzled gunslinger finally lay down their revolver for good. For too long, DeFi has been the digital Wild West. It is an amazing fertile ground for innovation, at the same time it’s a place riddled with scams, rug pulls, and...
Let's be blunt: the NFT gold rush feels like a distant memory. We witnessed the speculative mania, the million-dollar profile picture NFTs, and the quaint talk of a new decentralized world. Now that the dust has settled, it's time to pull back the curtain and ask a crucial question: are...
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.

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.

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...
