Will Crypto Rebound? Plus Fjord Foundry's LBP and IPOR's Fusion
The conversation discusses the recent market crash and its impact on various cryptocurrencies, particularly Bitcoin and altcoins. It highlights the volatility and risks associated with leveraged trading and the emotional aspect of trading. The conversation then transitions to a discussion about IPOR Fusion, a protocol that aims to increase the utility of DeFi credit markets by introducing interest rate swaps. The protocol allows users to earn high yields and borrow at cheaper rates while providing protection against liquidation. The release of Fusion is expected to make DeFi more accessible to a wider range of users. The conversation concludes with a mention of Fjord Foundry, a decentralized platform for teams to raise capital and launch tokens. Fjord's Liquidity Bootstrapping Pool (LBP) is a fair and effective way for teams to launch their tokens and generate liquidity for their community. The LBP uses Balancer's weighted math to create a decay function that starts the token price high and gradually pushes it down, preventing sniper bots and ensuring a fair supply distribution. LBPs typically run for three days, allowing traders from different time zones to participate and facilitating price discovery. Fjord has raised close to $1 billion through LBPs, demonstrating its success in the industry. The FJO token launch is a significant event for Fjord, with plans to distribute revenue share to token holders and explore partnerships for token airdrops from projects launching on the platform.
