The Return of Aave | Stani Kulechov

Coming off the heels of Aave’s huge v3 release a couple weeks ago, we wanted to bring on Founder and CEO, Stani Kulechov to unpack it for us. Stani is also the Founder of Lens Protocol, a permissionless, composable, & decentralized social graph that might just be the future of Web3 social platforms. How are Aave and Lens Protocol bringing this inevitable future to reality sooner than expected? What is the current state of the DeFi landscape? Buckle up because Stani will unpack these questions and so much more. —— 📣 ZERION | Trade Across 7 Networks and 500+ protocols n —— 🚀 SUBSCRIBE TO NEWSLETTER: 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO PODCAST: —— BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: 👀 POLYGON | LAYER 2 DEFI ❎ ACROSS | BRIDGE TO LAYER 2 🦊 METAMASK | THE CRYPTO WALLET 💳 LEDGER | THE CRYPTO LIFE CARD 🧙‍♂️ ALCHEMIX | SELF REPAYING LOANS 🦄 UNISWAP | DECENTRALIZED FUNDING s —— Timestamps: 0:00 Intro 7:00 What’s New With Stani 10:15 DeFi in 2021 14:13 Aave Portals 23:00 Maintaining Market Share 27:25 Forecasting the Future of Chains 32:57 Bridging & Security 37:38 Efficiency Mode 40:23 Isolation Mode 44:20 Stani’s Thoughts on Rari 48:18 Future Aave Versions 54:30 Stani’s PFP 57:15 Lens Protocol & Web3 Social 1:10:00 Lens Protocol All-Star Team & Roadmap 1:14:09 Rapid Fire Questions —— Resources: Stani Kulechov: v Aave: / Lens Protocol: —– Not financial or tax advice.
