Most of the interesting DeFi applications are already shown.
But I have another DeFi application:
Melon Protocol

Melon is an Ethereum-based protocol for decentralized on-chain asset management. It is a protocol for people or entities to manage their wealth & the wealth of others within a customizable and safe environment. Melon empowers anyone to set up, manage and invest in customized on-chain investment vehicles.

Another DeFi platform is Auctus. They are still in the development of some products but in 1 or 2 month they releasing a decentralized option protocol. Could be a very cool thing!

I would like to see a Defi protocol that integrates Arbitrage into the system. I think this can result into huge gains for Defi projects like Compound and with it huge liquidity pool lead massive gains. Arbitrage will systematically decline as the markets grow but for now there are gains to be made.

I didn’t find anything new not already mentioned by others. Just want to say thank you for the informative course and keep it going. I’m new to all this and I hope to come up with a valuable idea and implement it.

I came across a Crypto Index Fund called PieDAO. Seems like an interesting project. What do you think?

https://docs.piedao.org/

I completed all the lectures on DeFi but going to watch them all again now to really get a handle on this space.
Thanks for everything so far @amadeobrands to everyone. What a great community!

Hi there @amadeobrands and classmates!

I found this project in the space while virtually attending EtherealSummit. I think aims at a cornerstone aspect of any innovation, which is adoption.

Name: Zapper, previously DefiZap
Category: Usability?
website: https://defizap.com/
Admin key info: ?
Status: BETA
Tech Stack: ETH?
github repo: https://github.com/DeFiStrategies
whitepaper: no whitepaper
input crypto: Woks on top of Compound , kyber, Synthetix, Uniswap.
problem they fix:
It unlocks a unified way to keep track of different strategies while opening the door for anyone to be able to compose custom Zaps via a user-friendly interface.


I think is still a relevant building block since offers value in the form of TxFee saving and usability for the individual interacting with the ecosystem.

What do you think?

PS: Thanks @amadeobrands for the course. Really enjoying it.

Regards,
Danilo

Hi Amadeo , I loved what crypto.com and their coin (cro) is doing in only 4 years , however I studied a similar project called Punix that seem no to go anywhere after a while do you know about this? by the way I’m very happy to see the direction of the Blockchain :rocket:

Hey Amadeo , one project that looks interesting to me Is OPYN . Of course security is a huge deal for adoption so insurance against crashes or hacks would help people feel more secure .

Hey, Is it because of the IEO?
I am trying to understand the problem with this project.

I don’t think this is defi because I don’t see
interoperability

I am very much interested in Dharma because I was an international student in the US, so anytime I was sent money the bank will take sometimes 5% of the total transaction sent. This was a big issue when I had to pay my school fees, the 5% makes a big difference.

PS: I appreciate you sharing your in-depth knowledge on DeFi. I am still confused on some aspects, but I have to take the due diligence to read more about them.
THANK YOU <3

I also understand Crypto.com is CE-FI, so I get the security issue… BUT as a user experience and overall features I love it. So, the other question I would like to pose here is:

1(a) Will DE-FI security be as important to normal people or not?

2(b) Isn’t there ALWAYS going some small amount of Centralisation or frailty/trust issues within DE-FI? (Whether that is a website or badly coded building block or something else I havnt thought of?)

3Ā© Is a hybrid solution of CE-FI and DE-FI going to be more popular going forward and is that compatible with this space?

I find it very disturbing that Akon is abusing this hype for it you would think he is already rich enough $$$ … but look at it this way … I mean we have Bitcoin we have DAI, etc … if he really wanted to do something Nobel why not just use those projects … why start something for your self what do these projects don’t have.

The world seems to be pretty fucked up and I think we including my self need to reinvent out selves moving forward in this new world :slight_smile:


I could use this and then say Amadeo or @ivan coin will fix this … if I do then you should know I do not have the collective interest at hart…

Let’s hope for a good ending :slight_smile:

crypto.com is a very interesting project that really needs to be included in the DeFi Ecosystem overview IMO.

Why should crypto.com be a DeFi solution? It is a CeFi in my opinion!
