How DeFi can go Mainstream (with Synthetix Founder Kain Warwick)

We sit down with Kain Warwick, founder of the major DeFi project
Synthetix and a true pioneer in the decentralized finance (DeFi)
space. Kain has significantly influenced Ethereum's DeFi
ecosystem from the early days. Besides leading Synthetix, he's
also ventured into exciting new territories with his latest
project Infinex and he is a partner at venture capital firm Bodhi
Ventures.


We debate how DeFi can beat Binance, seamless onchain
experiences, low float / high FDV coins, his investment approach
AND we uncover the mystery behind the meme investor hat. Tune in
to see how DeFi is evolving!


Throughout the episode, Kain discusses his journey from the US to
Australia, shares his insights on the current state and future of
DeFi, and introduces us to his latest venture, Infinex. This new
platform promises a seamless, cross-chain wallet experience that
supports multiple blockchains like Ethereum and Solana,
eliminating common crypto hurdles such as multiple wallets, seed
phrases, and bridging.


Kain delves into the specifics of Infinex, including its
innovative approach to eliminating gas fees and integrating a
user-friendly funds recovery system. We also explore why Infinex
chose to launch on Solana and discuss broader trends in token
distribution and sales within the crypto market.


To wrap up, we pivot to Kain's role in venture capital through
Bodhi Ventures, exploring what he looks for in potential
investments.
