29 - Aave to Billions | Stani Kulechov
We know a lot of new DeFi users are asking “what is Aave?” and “Is Aave crypto, is there an Aave coin?”
This podcast is for those folks, and everyone interested in the future of DeFi.
Aave has marched up the DeFi leaderboard to become one of the top protocols with the most amount of value deposited into its contracts. Aave's token LEND has increased 3300% since its bear market low. It’s hitting on a key DeFi use case that is proving to be important not only to users, but to protocols as well.
What contributed to Aave's success? What did Aave do differently? Why did Aave's community thrive when others died? What's next for Aave and Aavenomics?
We ask Stani these questions and many more, in order to get a glimpse of what is successful in this DeFi frontier!
