DeFi tokens have faced major challenges in recent years. But are we now on the brink of a new bull market?
Arthur Cheong, Founder and CIO of DeFiance Capital, and Jordi Alexander, Founder of Selini Capital and Chief Alchemist at Mantle, join the show to discuss why they believe DeFi is poised for growth. They take a deep dive into how DeFi security and user experience have improved, how Layer 2 solutions will impact Ethereum, and whether Ethereum or Solana will drive the next bull market. Additionally, they discuss whether the interest in meme coins is attracting attention from DeFi and why sustainable tokenomics is important when assessing the value of a coin.
