Abstract: DeFi reimagines finance as open and fair; blockchain tech at its best. But it is also embarrassingly prone to black swan events. Take crypto lending, for instance, caught in an ad-hoc liquidation loop. In this talk, we look at how token engineering can infuse stability and transparency in DeFi, and make it anti-fragile, like it was meant to be. 

This talk was recorded Saturday, February 15, 2020.

ETHDenver 2020’s content themes included DeFi; DAOs and Token Engineering (TE); Gaming and Usability; Protocols and Interoperability; and Public Good and Social Impact. 

Industry experts also weighed in on topics like decentralization, privacy, identity, non-fungible tokens, scaling, governance, diversity, and arts and culture in blockchain technology.

The 2020 event was February 14-16 in Denver, Colorado and hosted 2000+ blockchain enthusiasts, developers and community members from 50 countries and 50 U.S. states.
