"So much loss these days not just financial and not just crypto - people leaving wealth getting wiped the way of building and our very identities being challenged our industry going through extremely fast change. Still one thing I know is that those of us that have been here for long have developed incredible resilience internalised a lot of pain and change and developed the ability to see opportunities and bounce back after any kind of reset. Kamino has simply proven stability over the past few weeks. So proud of all the work in infra oracles and calibration of risk params. Will post stats on"

"Pretty good baseline for standard smart contracts. Formal verification still expensive but AI is pretty good at writing FV tests - so the hard part is thinking what invariants are worth enforcing. If the smart contract manages risk / depends on market volatility the bar is much higher. * Oracle design is a huge rabbit hole * Failovers on cranks / keepers oracles resilience * Risk parameters calibration * Invariant checks --- Previously a team had to have funding + good judgement + good devs to do the above.

"One of the main things that Solana and Toly did right was to be terminally online and reply-guy to every single person on Twitter - that's how you cultivate a core group of believers - aka a cult. The reason why this is critical is that those believers go build products and work on user acquisition themselves instead of Toly having to acquire them one by one. Many L1s tried to take the shortcut and gave grants to mercenary devs that left the code to catch dust on github after they got the grant.

"An on-chain vault is NOT equivalent to a traditional fund just like an on-chain borrow lend is NOT equivalent to a traditional bank. This is an extremely lossy analogy. There's a slight overlap in that they both pool capital in search of yield but that's where the analogy stops. The accountability disclosures legal recourse consumer protections that make it safe for your inlaws to put their life savings in traditional funds are absolutely lacking on permissionless DeFi atm.

"The sad reality of oracles is that you only hear about them when things blow up. (ie X protocol or Y curator hardcoded or used AMM prices or deprecated feeds or Binance goes down and takes the whole world down with it). There are very few exciting parts about oracles actually. - unless you like composability or resilience or circuit breakers. If you do check out Kaminos USDC oracle in the UI. Every asset on Kamino is priced through a transparent oracle feed that users can inspect directly in the interface. Kamino has the most comprehensive oracle system in Solana. Each asset follows pricing"

"Common questions on looping - 1/ Why would you lend stables at lower yield (5%) to someone that loops a yield bearing token with higher yield (7%) 2/ Why not just straight up buy the 7% yielding token (after all 7% is bigger than 5%) 3/ Why not loop it yourself 5x and make 15% (at 80% LTV) -- The simplest analogy() that answer these questions is junior v senior capital - essentially in case of loss loopers are liquidated first to try to make lenders whole. Broadly both parties have exposure to the credit risk of the yield token however the loopers (borrowers) are the ones to get liquidated"

Since its crime season the truth is negotiable the product and the user are secondary considerations. The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is 10x bigger than needed to produce it and therefore we are inundated with illiterate grifting slop. However the user ends up paying - via losses wrongful liquidations hacks hidden fees undisclosed slippage and by not being compensated for the extra risk. We take the opposite approach.

"$300M in the PRIME market. A gigantic milestone and worth pausing to understand what is happening across the many layers of this token. First - at surface level both loopers and lenders want exposure to PRIME's 8% yield. Loopers lever up and earn 8% plus multiplied spread but take first loss if anything goes wrong. Lenders earn slightly less but are more senior protected by loopers getting liquidated first. The difference between the two of them is akin to junior and senior tranches. Depending on their perception of the PRIME quality they choose junior or senior exposure (great illustration"

"One of the main things that Solana and Toly did right was to be terminally online and reply-guy to every single person on Twitter - that's how you cultivate a core group of believers - aka a cult. The reason why this is critical is that those believers go build products and work on user acquisition themselves instead of Toly having to acquire them one by one. Many L1s tried to take the shortcut and gave grants to mercenary devs that left the code to catch dust on github after they got the grant.

"An on-chain vault is NOT equivalent to a traditional fund just like an on-chain borrow lend is NOT equivalent to a traditional bank. This is an extremely lossy analogy. There's a slight overlap in that they both pool capital in search of yield but that's where the analogy stops.
