DeFi, Fantom, Regulations, and the Challenges Of Being a Crypto Celebrity with Andre Cronje

This week on The Defiant Podcast, Camila Russo chats with Andre Cronje, the co-founder of Fantom, a Layer 1 blockchain, and also the founder of Yearn Finance, one of the first yield aggregators in DeFi.  Andre is certainly a key figure in the DeFi space who, at times, has been seen as a rockstar, and also been criticized for his controversial takes.  We start by talking about Andre’s backstory: How did he get into crypto in the first place, and why did he decide to build in DeFi?
