If you’re in DeFi, you need to learn DeFi. Simple as.
Would you captain a ship without ever having set out to sea before? Without knowing the currents, the maps of the stars or even where the next port is?
You would be quickly lost and adrift at sea and as vulnerable as a manatee at boat week. If the pirates don’t plunder your stores, or the whales don’t swallow you whole, or the storms don’t tear your ship apart, you’ll slowly waste away.
Throw in a hurricane and it sounds a lot like the crypto markets to me.
You’re the captain of your ship. You have to be aware of the dangers. You have to chart the course. You have to stock the ship (with money). You have to decide what ports to dock at (what trades to make).
You. You. You. It’s all about you!
So, you have to learn how to navigate these uncharted waters. Unfortunately, this is new territory so there are no maps. We are all having to learn through trial and error. A painful and expensive process.
So let’s not do it alone. Let’s map these waters together.
Join us in building the best crypto education platform possible. Join our Discord and take part in the knowledge share or pitch us some articles.Take part in the new age of exploration! Be on the bleeding edge of tech and maybe make a few bucks too.
We are already sourcing content from the saltiest sea dogs in DeFi for you. They’ll make sure you know how to swim with the whales so you don’t get swallowed, identify the siren songs of unrealistic APRs, and understand just which way the wind is blowing.
This is just the start.
We can’t promise you won’t get wrecked, or that you’ll moon forever. But we can and will deliver open and accessible information so you have a real shot at survival.
