There’s No Such Thing As A Free +10% DeFi Yield: Bits + Bips

Description

➡️ Subscribe to Bits + Bips: https://bitsandbips.beehiiv.com/subscribe Risk curators have been at the center of the storm recently. On this episode of Bits + Bips, Unchained executive editor Steve Ehrlich sits down with Sebastien Derivaux, co-founder and partner at Steakhouse Financial, to unpack how risk curation is very important in this environment. They discuss why earning a little extra yield can come with catastrophic risk, how Steakhouse curates risk for institutional users, what recent volatility revealed about DeFi vaults, and whether “safe” high yield is even possible. Sebastien also shares why Steakhouse is betting on the explosion of stablecoins — including non-USD currencies — and what that means for the next phase of onchain finance.
