Safeguarding DeFi Infrastructure Builders

Welcome to Crypto Long & Short, our institutional newsletter. This week, we're focusing on the need to safeguard the people behind DeFi infrastructure. Jennifer Rosenthal, chief communications officer at the DeFi Education Fund, emphasizes the importance of protecting software developers and the technology that enables DeFi. Meanwhile, Alexis Sirkia, chairman and co-founder of Yellow Network, analyzes Ethereum's scaling issues, arguing that the rollup model was flawed from the start. He suggests that state channels offer a more promising solution, allowing for peer-to-peer transactions without intermediaries.
