This is our inaugural research piece looking into LVR, FLAIR, and other metrics that

I've been working with the
@CatalystAMM
team to write a series of research articles on DeFi strategies for mitigating impermanent loss/ LVR and elevating LP performance in AMMs
We begin this series with - to dive deep into important metrics for AMM LPs

People aren't mad that NFTs are scams
They're mad that they did everything society told them to, yet they're still unemployed & drowning in debt
While college dropouts make 10x their annual income by flipping memes
NFTs are a violation of people's perception of fairness

- game theory
- art
- governance
- user experience design
- API best practices

My dad, who thinks Bitcoin is an outright scam, just told me that he thinks DAOs will replace corporations (he called them D.A.O.s though 🙃).
That's adoption.

You hate your job.
You spend all day on Twitter/Discord/Opensea/Zapper thinking about NFTs/DeFi/DAOs.
You daydream about working in crypto full-time but you're scared to go all-in.
You're waiting for the universe to give you a sign.
This is it.

Want to contribute to a DAO? Be a glue person.
Everyone wants to be a thinkboi or a builder. No one wants to do the dirty work
Schedule meetings, take notes, follow up on next steps, create status trackers.
Do that, and people will know who you are.

The sad truth of crypto is that everyone is obsessed with building dev platforms that increase bandwidth for the ever elusive "mainstream adoption" or re-imagine what kinds of app can be built
But no one is building apps that actually bring in more users

1/ Hitchhiker’s Guide to Rollups-as-a-Service
The future is millions of configurable chains, but 99% of modular chain teams want the infrastructure overhead to be abstracted.
Enter RaaS.

1/ No more secrets.
Today, I’m announcing Catalyst.
After working in crypto for 5 years, I started a project. I saw a problem that no one else was thinking about, and decided to dedicate my entire being to solving it.
What was the problem? Story time o_O
1/ Every asset, every chain, all at once.
Today we announce Catalyst, the cross-chain liquidity layer for the modular future.
Swap for any asset on any chain. Any new chain can easily connect to all other chains *right at launch*.

We'll cover must-dos & 3 scenarios
1) working in CeFi/a big company
2) working in a smaller startup
3) working at a DAO
TLDR; it's all about investing time & energy to showcase your interest before you even apply for a role

“How do I get a job in crypto w/o experience?” is the wrong question
Better question is “how do I get crypto experience before I apply to a job?”

Every crypto company has a 'Crypto 101' section of their website
Every DAO is trying to 'ramp up' their contributors

DAO voting is broken. Voter apathy, not meeting quorum, whales dictating the vote

1/ Pretty disappointed at defi innovation right now

$SOS viewed in the lens of a social experiment is truly a masterpiece

1/ It turns out your whole world can change in 3 months.
I’m revisiting my bridging piece.
Bridges are more important than ever bc they encompass all facets of crypto.
In a modular paradigm, *everything* is a bridge because everything is "cross-chain".

It's displacement. Punching down.
Digital artists would rather shit on other artists for making NFTs than mint some themselves because they're angry that their concept of 'right' got them nowhere
This is downtalk.
It’s like the opposite of uptalk. A condescending tone that originated in a descending class. They talk down to others to mask their deep disappointment in themselves.
Deboer is excellent on this.

Let's be honest -- Ethereum is unusable and has been for a long time.
And maybe will be forever.
L1 will be for security, L2 will be for apps & protocols.
It's our duty as Ethereum builders to build, create, deploy on L2s -- to bootstrap network effects.

“Crypto needs to be easier. Too many steps, private keys, paying for gas”
It’s called learning a new behavior

Using an iPhone was hard at first. Decision overload with apps

Liberal arts DAOs are sorely needed in this space
We're building a metaverse that decouples our IRL and digital lives.
What are the metaphysical implications of this? How do relationships change in this context? Is there any historical analog we can learn from?

Every DAO is an economy (labor force, GDP, trade) -- yet few DAOs are holistically thinking about how to ensure healthy economic activity
A currency for payment, store of value, interDAO trade, bonds & debt, etc

Kinda sad that Polygon NFTs are seen as low quality bc of how cheap it is to mint (sometimes free if subsidized by a dapp)
