I have been saying this for a while: DeFi depends on CeFi (Centralized Finance). Coinbase depends on people connecting their bank accounts or credit cards to fund their accounts. Coinbase's value was created through an IPO on the NYSE

There's maybe one positive comment thread in here and all the rest are thoughtfully negative to borderline "hater", wishing for Reddits demise for some obscure reason. I think we've seen this pattern play out. The HN cro

I tried to refinance with better.com a few months back. The quality of service was just not there. Mortgages are still very paper intensive processes with lots of middlemen and lots of procedures. You can build a slick interface but it'

Wasn't this the Bezos directive early on that created AWS? Anything that was created had to be a service with an API. Not allowed to recreate the wheel. So AWS depends on AWS.

The "extreme shortage" media narrative is misleading. Supply in many areas is at or above pre pandemic levels. What's changed is a massive demand spike as society reshuffles and realigns to post pandemic life. It's a sub
