Imran Mohamad is the Head of Marketing at KyberSwap. In this episode of The Edge Podcast, we cover Kyber's newest supertool for DeFi traders, built on a lifetime trading volume of $19B in data--KyberAI. Using AI, machine learning, and on-chain data, KyberAI assigns a score to how bullish or bearish a token might be over the short term (hours or days).

Stani Kulechov is the Founder of Aave and Lens protocols. In this episode of The Edge Podcast, we interview this legendary DeFi founder. Having built Aave into one of the world's largest DeFi protocols with an all-time high of $30B TVL, Stani made the bold move in 2021 to jumpstart another wildly challenging Web3 startup that would deliver a self-sovereign alternative to social media–called Lens. Lens is a decentralized composable social layer. You can think of it as "not your keys, not your follower graph" and it has proven to be the most foundational lego in the decentralized social stack jumpstarting a Web3 alternative to apps like Twitter and YouTube. Stani joins us to talk about their recently announced scaling solution for decentralized social called Momoka. ------ 🎙️ If you prefer a podcast player, subscribe and listen to The Edge Podcast here: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/edgepod THIS IS NOT A RECOMMENDATION OR ENDORSEMENT TO BUY ANY TOKEN OR NFT RELATED TO ANY PLATFORMS DISCUSSED. ------ 🌲 LINKTREE FOR THE EDGE PODCAST: https://linktr.ee/edge_pod 🔎 DISCOVER DEFI & WEB3 BLOG POSTS, PODCASTS, TUTORIALS: http://defidad.com/ ✅ FOLLOW DEFI DAD ON LENS: https://lenster.xyz/u/defidad ✅ FOLLOW NOMATIC ON TWITTER: https://twitter.com/Nomaticcap ✅ FOLLOW 4RC ON LENS: https://lenster.xyz/u/4rcapital ------ The Edge Podcast Sponsor Resources 🏗️ MANTLE | HIGH-PERFORMANCE ETHEREUM L2 WITH MODULAR DESIGN, LOW FEES, AND HIGH SECURITY https://linktr.ee/mantle.xyz ⚖️ KYBERSWAP | DECENTRALIZED EXCHANGE AGGREGATOR AND AMM https://kyberswap.com/?&utm_source=KOL&utm_medium=post&utm_campaign=defidad&utm_content=overview 📈 GTRADE | DECENTRALIZED LEVERAGE TRADING https://gains.trade/ 🥑 INSTADAPP | CHECK OUT THE NEW AVOCADO SMART CONTRACT WALLET https://avocado.instadapp.io/ ⛩️ UTOPIA | PAYROLL AND EXPENSE MANAGEMENT FOR DAOS https://www.utopialabs.com/ 🌊 STADER | MULTICHAIN LIQUID STAKING https://staderlabs.com/ 🚀 LIQUITY | UNSTOPPABLE ETH-BACKED STABLECOINS AND LEVERAGE https://www.liquity.org/ 🙋‍♀️ Interested to sponsor The Edge Podcast?

Jordan Kruger is CoFounder of Metronome and Vesper Finance. Zane Huffman is CoFounder of Metronome and CSO of Bloq. In this episode of The DeFi Podcast, we interview 2 crypto OGs who pivoted to building full time in DeFi back in 2020, which led to the launch of Vesper Finance, designed for easy single-deposit token vault strategies. During this interview, we focus on their latest protocol Metronome, which enables users to generate a variety of synthetics using cryptoassets as collateral. Their newest product Smart Farming is a degen's paradise with up to 4-5X looping to instantly create leveraged positions with like-assets, backed by interest-earning collateral like vaFRAX or vaSTETH deposited in Vesper vaults. This is a great interview and tutorial for those new to the concept of looping in DeFi and how it works. ------ 🎙️ If you prefer a podcast player, subscribe and listen to The DeFi Podcast here: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/defidad THIS IS NOT A RECOMMENDATION OR ENDORSEMENT TO BUY ANY TOKEN OR NFT RELATED TO ANY PLATFORMS DISCUSSED. ------ 🌲 CHECK OUT MY OTHER POD--THE EDGE PODCAST: https://linktr.ee/edge_pod 🔎 DISCOVER DEFI & WEB3 BLOG POSTS, PODCASTS, TUTORIALS: http://defidad.com/ ✅ FOLLOW DEFI DAD ON TWITTER: https://twitter.com/DeFi_Dad ------ Podcast Sponsor Resources 🏗️ MANTLE | HIGH-PERFORMANCE ETHEREUM L2 WITH MODULAR DESIGN, LOW FEES, AND HIGH SECURITY https://linktr.ee/mantle.xyz ⚖️ KYBERSWAP | DECENTRALIZED EXCHANGE AGGREGATOR AND AMM https://kyberswap.com/?&utm_source=KOL&utm_medium=post&utm_campaign=defidad&utm_content=overview 📈 GTRADE | DECENTRALIZED LEVERAGE TRADING https://gains.trade/ 🥑 INSTADAPP | CHECK OUT THE NEW AVOCADO SMART CONTRACT WALLET https://avocado.instadapp.io/ ⛩️ UTOPIA | PAYROLL AND EXPENSE MANAGEMENT FOR DAOS https://www.utopialabs.com/ 🌊 STADER | MULTICHAIN LIQUID STAKING https://staderlabs.com/ 🚀 LIQUITY | UNSTOPPABLE ETH-BACKED STABLECOINS AND LEVERAGE https://www.liquity.org/ ------ Topics Covered 00:00 - Intro 04:25 - Jordan's background 08:10 - Zane's background 10:20 - Lessons from this crypto bear market 15:30 - What is Metronome 18:35 - Smart Farming application 22:45 - The utility of synths 28:00 - Risks of Smart Farming 33:40 - Synth minting fee 37:20 - What's next for Metronome 39:23 - Closing ------ Guest Links Jordan on Twitter https://twitter.com/JordanJKruger Zane on Twitter https://twitter.com/jeffthedunker Metronome on Twitter https://twitter.com/MetronomeDAO Learn about Metronome https://metronome.io/ Learn about Vesper Finance https://vesper.finance/ ------ 🙏 If you're a DeFi/Web3 builder, contact my team at: https://fourthrevolution.capital/ All opinions expressed by hosts and podcast guests are solely their own opinions and not necessarily those of Fourth Revolution Capital.

Sam and his brother Sowmay Jain have an epic story to tell going back to 2019, when they won an ETHGlobal hackathon building what is now known as Instadapp. Instadapp is a rich platform for both users and developers to leverage the full potential of DeFi.
