Most DeFi protocols aren't really "decentralized". But they have a strong incentive to claim they are. DAOs that are just three friends in a group chat. Oracles that kill the protocol when they fail. Frontends that vanish when there's an AWS outage. DeFiScan cuts through that theater, and rates... show more

PRESIDENT TRUMP: The people that do the most, you take a look at the people, Abraham Lincoln, I mean, you go through the people that have gone through this where they got them. But the people that do the most, the people that make the biggest impact, they're the ones that they go after. They don't go after the ones that don't do much because they like it that way. And when you look at the people that have either, whether it was an attempt or a successful attempt, they're very impactful people.

Arteta on whether his side have become more streetwise since last season: "Yeah, but there is an element of luck as well because they are so good at doing that. They throw in numbers, they know exactly how to do it, the timing is so good, the type of players that they do. But not only that, when you give them a space to play as well, they play. They are a really, really good side. And yeah, in any other moment we could have conceded a goal in a different way, and that's part of the game as well."

This is one of the most psychologically revealing things he’s ever said. Consider that we’re supposed to be his “friends.” “I don't like friends that become very successful. I like people that are just OK. Even if they're terrible, I like that, too. I hate like when I have lunch with somebody that's really, really successful. I hate it. Because he or she is bragging about how great they are. And I hate that when they do that. Because they stopped me from talking about the fact that I became president.”

Phillip: It's also a reaction that people have to knowing that if they have an interaction with ice, whether or not they are legal, whether they are a citizen, they might have their freedom stripped from them. Do you acknowledge that that is happening? Trover: I acknowledge that it happens every day in this country when somebody who has committed a crime or doesn't runs from the police, what are they going to do? Yes, you're going to be in trouble. Phillip: We’re talking about people who have not committed crimes. Trover: That’s my point. Why would they run if they have not committed crimes?

President Trump just gave an answer that will go down in the history books when Peter Doocy asked why assassination attempts keep happening to him. “We’ve changed this country and there are lot of people that are not happy about that.” TRUMP: “Well, you know, I’ve studied assassinations and I must tell you, the most impactful people...” “The people that do the most...you take a look at the people, Abraham Lincoln...the people that have gone through this...the people to do the most...the people that make the biggest impact, they’re the ones that they go after.” “They don’t go after the ones that don’t do much because they like it that way.” “And when you look at the people that have either...whether it was an attempt or a successful attempt, and they’re very impactful people just take a look at the names there.” “And I hate to say I’m honored by that but I’ve done a lot.” “We’ve taken this country and we were a laughingstock years and now we’re the hottest country anywhere in the world.” “We’ve changed this country and there are lot of people that are not happy about that.”

A month ago, we recorded an interview with ether.fi Founder Mike Silagadze🛡, in the wake of the Kelp-Aave exploit. A lot has moved forward since then, but Mike made some great points about what he calls "decentralization theater," that are still very relevant. Like when protocols hide behind decentralization vs thinking about better, smarter, safer designs to actually protect users. "DeFi protocols need emergency measures. The blockchain is like the laws of physics. A DeFi protocol is not."

Stani on why bond yields vs DeFi rates is the wrong comparison, and why DeFi rates are headed higher "These longer term bonds' rates fluctuate on a day to day basis. So you are effectively always taking duration risk when you enter into a bond position that you have to hold for the long term." "What's different with Aave is that you can enter a pool and exit it anytime, which means you don't have the duration risk that you have with a bond." "The pricing of the bond changes on an ongoing basis. It might be higher today, and in a few months it might be lower, but you're still subscribing to a duration, which can be up to 10, 20, or 30 years." "With these liquidity pools, you actually have access to that liquidity at withdrawal. That is a significant difference. So I think there's a little bit of mislabeling." "Down the line, I actually think the rates in DeFi are going to increase, because there's more and more new collateral coming onchain. That will vacuum up a lot of the idle liquidity sitting in these pools and push interest rates up."

"The Achilles heel of any DeFi protocol is the oracle. It lives and dies by its oracle" Niklas Kunkel, CEO of Chronicle Labs, on why oracles are the single point of failure in DeFi "If an oracle prints that ETH is a trillion dollars, anyone can just go and drain all of the liquidity out of any lending market, out of any credit protocol. Similarly, if the oracle reports ETH is zero, you can liquidate all of the ETH positions in a lending protocol" "If you're looking at the likes of Aave and Sky, you could potentially trigger a liquidation cascade on ETH, that has far more second order effects than just the onchain liquidations"

It's a common belief that Republicans often cheat to win, and when they fail, they quickly claim the election was rigged. However, as Jessica points out, there are three other tactics Republicans are trying to push that deserve our attention. #DemsUnited

Pediatricians get massive bonuses to inoculate children. But they haven't dived deep into the research and clinical trial data relied upon to license those products. SIRI: "Your typical Paediatrician or Infectious Disease when I depose them, they know nothing" "They just don't know.... I know that they are taught that there is this incredible body of science that underpins the safety of vaccines... that is just a Slogan.. it is not true. " "When you look [at the trials used to prove their safety] they are disturbing. " Seems like a massive conflict of interest.

The challenge you get in 2025 is that many women have only achieved things because of their looks and not because they are skilled. They go through life thinking that they are talented when really they are just women. This is especially prevalent in media - I have managed both male and female YouTube channels and I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt that men have to do way more to get half the followers women get! The lack of humility from commentators that have the easiest jobs in the world amazes me!

🗣️ Mikel Arteta on players tracking back: “They are really good examples. “The way the team tracks back is just unbelievable, especially when fitness-wise you are not there. So you have to get there in a different way. “When you put your soul and your heart into every action, that’s what happens. “I talk about desire with the composure and the desire to have the ball that we had against a team that is really good in the way they press and really good when they regain the ball, especially in the way they transition. “To have that courage and that composure is only possible if you desire to do it in the manner that we did today. “I’m very pleased with that.”

FRIENDS ARE OF 4 TYPES. According to Muhammad Al-Ghazali: 1. Friends that are like food: you go to them every day, every time when you're hungry, and they are always available to provide you with what will save you from any form of harm. 2. Friends that are like Doctors; that you don't need to see everyday. But when there is a problem, you go to these friends & you come home with your problems solved. 3. Friends that are like illness; They won't kill you, but they will weaken you. Things that you were good at, you can't do at all when you're with these friends. In fact, there is always a battle between you & them. While you fight to grow, they fight to bring you down. 4. Friends that are like poison. If they don't kill you, they'd get you killed. They never rest until they see that you are no more. Please think carefully about the kind of friends you have, and those you'd want to go to in event of problems. Imagine going to someone that is waiting for you to die, with a problem that is a do or die? Imagine going to someone with a life threatening challenge, but he only pretends as a friend waiting for an opportunity to harm you? Speaker: Malam Nura Lemu (Hafizahullah).

"We're going to dump them [on the Falklands]? Good luck with that, with the people that already live on that island, we'll see how they take to it. "There's something poisonous about the way we talk about these people… they are some of the most vulnerable people on God's Earth. "They would have escaped war, they would have escaped torture, and they would have escaped – even if they're not actually refugees and fail in their claim – a degree of poverty that was so severe that, unlike you or I, they chose to get on a boat for a very dangerous journey."

JUST IN: Marco Rubio on Iran: Iran now claims that they own that they have a right to control an international waterway. They claim that they have a right to control it. What is the world going to do about that? Is the world going to accept that Iran now controls an international waterway? Because if the world is prepared to accept that, then be ready because there's like 10 other countries that are going to start doing the same thing in international waterways near their countries. That's an unacceptable thing that they're trying to normalize.
