Volatility as a Selling Point in DeFi

Volatility as a Selling Point in DeFi's Cover photo

Humans are curious creatures.

People want to speculate.

We want to know what’s on the other side. Is it greener?


It is… for the first ones there, most of the time.

Trading is a zero-sum game. There will be losers; there will be winners.

People want to play, infinitely

When you win, you want to win again

When you lose, you want to win even more


If you truly want to win and keep winning - you have to play as the house.

Win or lose, the house wins.

The house hosts the games.

The house makes the games possible to play.

The same is true in DeFi, where the wildest games are played

To attract liquidity, you have to have the best games to play

More volatility = more excitement

More volatility = more fees
