Oogie! Groovy!! Boogie!!! DeFi Inferno!!!!

Funds, Crypto Banks, and Alternative Investments: Doing Decentralized Finance (DeFi) in Different Ways

By: Jamil Hasan

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

The DeFi Summer of 2020 seems like a long time ago, nearly three years from this book's publication. Some prices of tokens then, such as ChainLink, Synthetix, and Aave, catapulted dramatically. While prices have come down substantially over the last few years, the growing landscape of decentralized finance platforms, applications, yield mechanisms, and staking services has grown significantly. These ways are the most common channels of conducting DeFi, but there are quite a few others, including venture capital funding, alternative investment banks, unique funding structures, and many less commonly advertised means of earning passive income for investors. By the time the next DeFi Summer occurs, we will witness a richer and more robust expansion of the decentralized financial system. It is only a matter of time.

This thirty-second book in the Crypto Hipster Chronicles series, entitled "Oogie! Groovy!! Boogie!!! DeFi Inferno!!!" goes into some of these lesser known DeFi vehicles and opportunities to provide the reader with an expanded understanding of global decentralized financial markets. This book draws upon four Crypto Hipster Chronicles podcasts. Aldemaro Fonseca, NTL Wealth's head advisor for LATAM and Spain Markets, shares how to establish a Cayman crypto fund and how to get a crypto license in Lithuania. Rui Zhang, CFA, CPA, Co-founder & Managing Partner of gumi Cryptos Capital, tells us all about gumi Crypto Capital's approach to venture capital investing in decentralized projects focused on usability and sustainability. Pedro Torres, the Co-founder and Head of Quant at Roseon.Finance, explains how his company creates efficiencies in DeFi using a hybridization approach to banking and investing. And Paulius Stankevicius, founder and CEO of Stankevicius Group and Stankevicius companies, shares how his company has built the next generation of alternative investment banking.

I hope you find this book both educational and useful in your crypto and life journey.
