Episode #20: DeFi Points Farming & Stuff with Dan from Pendle
Wondering what all the buzz about DeFi points farming is about? Us too. In Episode #20, we dial into the heart of one of DeFi's currently much-contended trends, exploring how points aren't just digital tallies but pivotal opportunities for loyalty and reward.
Join Dan from Pendle – the permissionless yield-trading protocol – and Magy as they pinpoint (pun intended 😎) exactly how these mechanisms are reshaping the landscape of digital finance.
In this episode:
⛓️ Yield tokenization and trading! How Pendle creates new investment opportunities by separating a token into two parts – its principal and its yield.
🌟 Why DeFi’s points’ trends are essentially a tool for rewards based on user loyalty.
🎯 A behind-the-scenes on The Hunt for $12M in NEXO Tokens – Nexo’s own take on points.
🎁 What can points be redeemed for beyond airdrops?
🎭 Is gamification needed and beneficial in a points-based system? How playful should we be?
