When the Going Gets Tough in Crypto

This year is one for the books; some say it has been one of the wildest the crypto industry has seen. First, the Terra Luna meltdown. Now, the fall of FTX. The crypto space seems to be spiraling out of control. In just one week, the total crypto market cap from the industry dropped over 20%, shedding over $200 billion dollars in value.

Is this the end? Certainly not. However, users and investors alike have adopted a higher degree of skepticism toward this industry due to the mistakes and mismanagement of funds of a few players. But this is a misrepresentation of what crypto and blockchain technologies are.

These are uncertain times. No one knows 100% what’s going to happen later today or tomorrow. One of the key takeaways of the recent events is the advantages of DeFi over CeFi.

This is the time to focus on controlling what we can. That’s what tough people do.

Take action. Revisit our Twitter Space to learn how the tough get going.

The State of DeFiner

In light of the recent events surrounding FTX, the DeFiner team decided to update the community about whether the incident had any impact on the DeFiner protocol. Jeral Rodriguez hosted a Twitter Space with special guest Jason Wu, Co-Founder and CEO of Definer, to address some questions regarding the current state of DeFiner.

Some of the topics covered during the live event included:

HODLer Market Update.
FTX Debacle Impact on DeFiner.
DeFiner’s Liquidity Issue.
DeFiner’s Role in the DeFi Sector.
The Benefits of DeFi Over CeFi.

Stay in the loop. Listen to our conversation with Jason here.
