Ethereum is the Future of Finance
In this episode of Deeply Intents I chat with
@haikane, founder of
@propellerswap. The recording (🎤, 🎧), breaks down PropAMMs: what they are and how they evolve the market microstructure on Ethereum main-net.
But that's not the crescendo. 𝆒🎶🎶🎵 🤨
We also unpack the Propeller stack -- Tycho, Fynd, and Turbine -- a sovereign trading stack for Ethereum. 🤯
The episode would not be complete without a few Spicy takes 🥵. In particular, builder centralization and batching in DeFi.
Please note, the propeller stack is Open Source. 🔥
