DeFi Options Protocols Series (#4): Bringing Real World Risks On-Chain?
- Bringing yields from real-world assets on-chain is one of the major themes for DeFi, given the high interest rate environment.
- The natural extension to that would be bringing yields from real-world risks on-chain, a space that has not been explored extensively yet.
- DeFi options protocols could look to cover these real-world risks as they seek further growth.
Loans, Buy Walls, and OTC Deals: The Curve Finance Exploit
- Curve Finance is back as the center of attention in DeFi just a few weeks after CEO Michael Egorov’s large CRV-backed loans drew scrutiny.
- This time, however, the inciting incident was an exploit.
- Rekt and Llama Risk have done a nice job breaking down the technical aspects of the exploit.
