The goal of this channel is to think about crypto in a different way. Contrary to popular belief, crypto doesn't have to be, "Buy and hope it goes up." Through DeFi, there are so many ways to earn high & safe yields on your assets, which is a total game changer in terms of portfolio construction.

Yield farming is not a "get rich quick scheme," but rather a "slow grind to more wealth" strategy. And I argue that USING DeFi is the best way to LEARN DeFi, which will present natural alpha for you in the future. I am not an ecosystem maxi, but a yield maxi. If an ecosystem presents a good risk-adjusted yield, I will be there. Subscribe to follow my journey!

aside from being a Defi demigod, you guys should check out Chris McCann's photography! Got intrigued by his Mamiya medium format cameras in the background and I was blown away when I found his photo website! Truly a man of many talents!

The representation on how much it costs is pretty dope

[noneofyourbizness]

57:50 that 0.2 SOL in fees is ~$50 now ...and the price of SOL is only going one way, at least until it hits $650-700. hopefully the various apps adjust the fee % down as the price goes up.
