Bitcoin’s security and reliability as a store of value are undeniable. However, its liquidity remained untapped for too long due to a lack of trustless bridges and native smart contract capabilities. As BTC is only native to Bitcoin’s L1, any attempt to include it in DeFi relies on the trust assumptions of third party custodians that wrap it. Build On Bitcoin (BOB) aims to expand Bitcoin’s functionality by integrating it with Ethereum’s smart contract capabilities. BOB operates as an OP Stack L2 with a hybrid design incorporating ZKPs, Bitcoin staking, and Ethereum for data availability. By functioning as a rollup, BOB processes transactions off-chain and batches them for settlement on Bitcoin and Ethereum, significantly improving transaction speed and reducing costs compared to Bitcoin’s base layer.

f(x) Protocol: Decentralized Yield-Bearing Stablecoin & 0-Liquidation Perp - Cyrille Brière 1:00:22

منذ 4 أيام1:00:22

1:00:22

Without a doubt, the introduction of stablecoins has vastly increased overall crypto liquidity, adoption and real-world use cases as they offered a safe haven against the industry’s volatility, especially during bearmarkets. However, despite being extremely efficient, the main stablecoin actors (i.e. Circle & Tether) are centralised entities. Many attempts have been made to create a reliable decentralised stablecoin, but regulations and the resounding collapse of Terra’s UST have only pushed towards more established, yet centralised, variants. f(x) is a new generation CDP (collateralised debt position) protocol that offers on-chain perpetual trading for BTC & ETH with near-0 funding rates and a novel liquidation mechanism which protects users against hard liquidations. The leverage component is powered by emitting fxUSD, the protocol’s decentralised stablecoin, which boasts robust peg-keeping mechanisms, the main one being fxSAVE’s stability pool. The fxSAVE strategy bestows nearly 10% APY to the yield-bearing fxUSD-USDC pair. Topics covered in this episode: Cyrille’s background AladdinDAO Decentralised stablecoins f(x) perps and sharing liquidation risks The efficiency of progressive liquidations Removing funding rates fxSAVE’s stability pool yields fxUSD’s organic adoption The importance of decentralised stablecoins Winning in the perp arena Opportunities in the stablecoin adoption race Episode links: Cyrille Brière on X f(x) Protocol on X AladdinDAO on X Sponsors: Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Euler: The DeFi Super App - Michael Bentley 1:00:01

منذ 4 أيام1:00:01

1:00:01

Euler is a DeFi lending protocol built around the idea of permissionless modularity, enabling users to lend and borrow almost any crypto asset with flexible, permissionless pools, tailored to individual risk profiles. Moreover, Euler Vault Kit (EVK) and Ethereum Vault Connector (EVC) enable the creation of custom lending vaults which, in turn, can be used as collateral for other vaults. Earlier this year Euler also announced EulerSwap, a new DEX with a built-in AMM powered by Euler’s lending infrastructure and integrated with Uniswap v4’s hook architecture. EulerSwap integrates directly with Euler’s lending vaults, allowing assets to be used across multiple pools. This turns the lending protocol into a shared liquidity layer, improving capital efficiency across the ecosystem via swaps, lending yield or collateral for borrowing other assets. Topics covered in this episode: Michael’s background The history & vision behind Euler The Euler hack Euler V2 Euler vs. other lending protocols Diversifying offerings Variable vs. fixed rates How Pendle works Euler’s future RWAs Privacy in DeFi Euler roadmap The impact of AI in DeFi Episode links: ⁠⁠Michael Bentley on X ⁠⁠ Euler on X⁠⁠ Sponsors: Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Zama: FHE - the Holy Grail of Blockchain Privacy - Rand Hindi 56:12

منذ 19 يومًا56:12

56:12

Blockchains operate as a public ledger, ‘disclosing’ the entire transaction history and associated data to everyone. While verifiability and traceability are key traits, as blockchains gain global adoption, those very features hinder the process. Self custody, on-chain identities, corporate strategies, transaction history, private deals, all represent highly sensitive information that call for provable confidentiality. Fully homomorphic encryption has long been considered the ‘holy grail’ of cryptography as it enables computation to be performed on encrypted data without the need of prior decryption. This basically translates to true end-to-end encryption, both on-chain and off-chain. As cryptographic research advances, so does the scalability and applicability of FHE. As a result of more than 5 years of work, Zama has now released Zama Protocol, which enables confidential smart contracts on top of any L1 or L2 using FHE, without any additional execution burden. By encrypting all ciphertexts with the same public key, FHE ensures composability and seamless integration across different blockchains and applications, making it a true cross-chain confidentiality layer. Through parallel execution, Zama Protocol already surpasses Ethereum’s throughput, yet future roadmap includes open-source development of FPGA & ASIC in order to scale it even further, to accommodate faster, non-EVM chains. Topics covered in this episode: Zama’s progress in FHE Zama's confidential blockchain Protocol Security guarantees of MPC coprocessors Maintaining a healthy operator set Slashing and governance Zama’s throughput Open-sourcing FPGA & ASIC development The Zama token & its implications Zama’s public testnet Private voting Zama funding Regulations Expanding use cases beyond blockchains Future goals and expectations Episode links: Rand Hindi on X Zama on X Sponsors: Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Lagrange: ZK-Proving AI Alignment - Ismael Hishon-Rezaizadeh 56:51

منذ 5 weeks56:51

56:51

In an age when AI models are becoming exponentially more sophisticated and powerful, how does one ensure that proper results are being generated and that the AI model functions in desired parameters? This pressing concern of AI alignment could be solved through cryptographic verification, using zero knowledge proofs. ZKPs not only allow for verifying computation at scale, but they also confer data privacy. Lagrange’s DeepProve zkML is the fastest in existence, making it easy to prove that AI inferences are correct, scaling verifiable computation as the demand for AI grows.

UMA & Across: Optimistic Oracles & Intent-Based Bridges for Unifying Ethereum - Hart Lambur 1:11:16

منذ 7 weeks1:11:16

1:11:16

Universal Market Access (UMA) was founded by 2 ex Goldman Sachs traders that wanted to make global markets universally accessible through financial smart contracts that used synthetic assets on Ethereum. However, this was taking place long before the massive boom of DeFi summer of 2020. As a result, UMA shifted to building an optimistic oracle to power prediction markets as a decentralised ‘truth machine’, thus expanding oracle use cases. Through game theoretic models, UMA managed to properly incentivise its token holders to act as voters, rewarding them for good predictions & disputes, and vice versa. Later on, Hart Lambur also co-founded Across, an intent-based optimistic bridge that set out to create a seamless UX for unifying EVM chains. Through their solver network, Across managed to achieve fast (as low as 2 seconds) and cheap bridging, abstracting away crosschain complexities, without any security tradeoffs. Topics covered in this episode: Hart’s background Universal Market Access, from synthetic assets to oracles Building Across UMA’s optimistic oracle Incentivizing voters & resolving disputes Dealing with invalid outcomes Optimistic security assumptions UMA x Across dual token interactions Across’ intent-based bridge Pricing mechanism & solver competition ZK settlement Bridging fragmentation Abstracting & unifying cross-chain bridging Bridging between rollups UMA & Across governance systems Episode links: Hart Lambur on X Across Protocol on X UMA Protocol on X Sponsors: Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Near One: Scaling the Agentic Internet. AI X Crypto - Bowen Wang 1:01:40

منذ 9 weeks1:01:40

1:01:40

‘Attention Is All You Need’, co-wrote by Illia Polosukhin in 2017, laid the foundation for arguably one of the most consequential tech breakthroughs in our recent history. 1 year later, Illia founded Near AI, which later became Near Protocol. They were visionaries ahead of their time and, although AI took several more years before becoming a viable product, the experience of scaling databases would later prove valuable and applicable in blockchain world. As a result, Near Protocol aims to become the infrastructure layer for AI apps and the agentic economy. In order to achieve this, scaling was paramount, thus Near is one of the first blockchains to implement execution layer sharding, asynchronous execution and stateless validation, which brought the finality time down to 1.2 seconds, with a block time of 0.6 seconds. Topics covered in this episode: Bowen’s background Near’s pivot from AI to blockchains The role of Near One Near’s tech stack upgrades Optimizing network architecture Stateless validation & block propagation Sharding & asynchronous execution Message passing between shards & shard ‘equality’ Challenges of implementing stateless validation Applications benefiting from Near’s finality speed Intent-based infrastructure AI use cases on Near Expanding Near’s ecosystem Development challenges Near’s vision and goals Episode links: Bowen Wang on X Near One Near on X Sponsors: Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

Staking Rewards: Is Crypto Staking Killing Decentralisation? - Mirko Schmiedl & Tobias Jung 54:55

منذ 15 weeks54:55

54:55

Apart from incentivising market participants to secure the network through inflationary rewards, many consider staking as an equivalent of stock dividend yield. As a result, although Bitcoin is regarded as digital gold, protocols are looking for ways to increase its utilisation in DeFi and, ultimately, generate yield. Nowadays, while newer networks are struggling to attract investors and sustain a healthy, decentralised validator set, more established blockchains capture the lion’s share of PoS actors. However, in a constant race for profit basis points, centralised consolidation of stakers seems inevitable.
