Strictly not financial advice.

Dec 1, 2020

Thailand's largest commercial bank recently dipped its toes into DeFi by investing in Alpha Finance, a Binance-backed research team building consumer DeFi products. Founder Tascha (@tascha_panpan) joins me in discussing:

  • What is Alpha Finance?
  • Market gaps in DeFi today
  • Why levered yield farming is Alpha's first product
  • How Alpha decides what products to build
  • Thailand's growing DeFi scene

Host: Jason Choi (@MrJasonChoi). This show is not financial advice; show host and guest may hold some of the assets discussed.
