<p>Chris Perkins has a fascinating background as a marine who was shot at in Iraq, was at Lehman bros when it all came crashing down, was a Citigroup trying to pick up the piece of the financial crisis where he first ran across Gary Gensler, and now he’s in crypto. We talk about all that, but that’s not even the main event.</p> <p>The Main Event is Ether the asset and a new reference rate he’s building on top of it. This sounds in the weeds but it’s actually actually key to unlocking trillions in new financial products. You might call this new rate the Libor for ETH. </p> <p>------<br /> 🏹 USE PODCAST24 FOR 10% OFF<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Citizen2024">https://bankless.cc/Citizen2024</a> <br /> ------<br /> 🎧 Listen On Your Favorite Podcast Player: <br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Podcast">https://bankless.cc/Podcast</a> <br /> ------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS:</p> <p>🐙KRAKEN | MOST-TRUSTED CRYPTO EXCHANGE<br /> <a href= "https://k.xyz/bankless-pod-q2">https://k.xyz/bankless-pod-q2</a> ⁠ </p> <p>🔗CELO | CEL2 COMING SOON<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Celo">https://bankless.cc/Celo</a> </p> <p>🗣️TOKU | CRYPTO EMPLOYMENT SOLUTION<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/toku">https://bankless.cc/toku</a> </p> <p>🛞MANTLE | MODULAR LAYER 2 NETWORK<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Mantle">https://bankless.cc/Mantle</a> </p> <p>💸 CRYPTO TAX CALCULATOR | USE CODE BANK30<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/CTC">https://bankless.cc/CTC</a> </p> <p>⚖️ARBITRUM | SCALING ETHEREUM<br /> <a href= "https://%E2%81%A0https//bankless.cc/Arbitrum">⁠https://bankless.cc/Arbitrum</a></p> <p>🦄 UNISWAP | Swap Smarter<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/uniswap">https://bankless.cc/uniswap</a> </p> <p>------<br /> TIMESTAMPS<br /> 00:00:00 Start<br /> 00:11:33 Intro to Chris<br /> 00:13:17 From Banks To Crypto<br /> 00:16:27 Hostility Towards Crypto<br /> 00:19:16 National Security<br /> 00:25:23 Takes on Regulation<br /> 00:31:12 TradFi Response To Crypto<br /> 00:33:58 ETH ETF<br /> 00:37:24 Libor for ETH?<br /> 00:42:43 Libor Recap<br /> 00:45:35 How Was Libor Corrupted?<br /> 00:53:21 ETH Reference Rate<br /> 01:04:13 Risk Free Rate<br /> 01:10:08 Real vs Nominal Returns<br /> 01:21:51 DeFi Applications<br /> 01:26:01 Market Size<br /> 01:33:17 Going Forward</p> <p>------<br /> RESOURCES</p> <p>CESR home page: <a href= "https://www.coindesk.com/indices/ether/cesr">https://www.coindesk.com/indices/ether/cesr</a> <br /> CESR methodology document: <a href= "https://coinfund.io/cesr/">https://coinfund.io/cesr/</a> <br /> CESR Tearsheet: <a href= "https://downloads.coindesk.com/cd3/CDI/CESR+Fact+Sheet.pdf">https://downloads.coindesk.com/cd3/CDI/CESR+Fact+Sheet.pdf</a> </p> <p>More Reading:<br /> <a href= "https://www.coindesk.com/consensus-magazine/2023/09/26/how-staking-rates-can-drive-the-crypto-economy-forward/"> https://www.coindesk.com/consensus-magazine/2023/09/26/how-staking-rates-can-drive-the-crypto-economy-forward/</a> <br /> <a href= "https://www.coindesk.com/business/2023/09/27/five-reasons-why-the-world-needs-a-standardized-ethereum-staking-rate/"> https://www.coindesk.com/business/2023/09/27/five-reasons-why-the-world-needs-a-standardized-ethereum-staking-rate/</a> <br /> <a href= "https://www.risk.net/derivatives/7957405/new-hope-for-crypto-derivatives-as-markets-urged-to-hail-cesr"> https://www.risk.net/derivatives/7957405/new-hope-for-crypto-derivatives-as-markets-urged-to-hail-cesr</a> </p> <p>------<br /> Not financial or tax advice.

<p>Today on the show, we’re talking about Oval, a new DeFi primitive that Hart Lambur from UMA is introducing to the world of DeFi’s biggest lending markets. Billions of dollars have been liquidated from protocols like Aave, Compound, and MakerDAO over the years, and these liquidations have been extremely inefficiently priced, due to reasons! Reasons that we will discuss here on the show today. </p> <p>Hasu also joins us on this conversation today to discuss the way that MEV share from Flashbots is a part of this conversation, and he helps illuminate what this means for DeFi going forward as a whole.</p> <p>------<br /> ⛓️ Visit dydx.exchange to learn about dYdX Chain<br /> <a href= "https://dydx.zone/3SfJTP7">https://dydx.zone/3SfJTP7</a> </p> <p>------<br /> 🎧 Listen On Your Favorite Podcast Player: <br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Podcast">https://bankless.cc/Podcast</a> </p> <p>------<br /> BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS:</p> <p>🐙KRAKEN | MOST-TRUSTED CRYPTO EXCHANGE<br /> <a href= "https://k.xyz/bankless-pod-q2">https://k.xyz/bankless-pod-q2</a> ⁠ </p> <p>🔗CELO | CEL2 COMING SOON<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Celo">https://bankless.cc/Celo</a> </p> <p>🗣️TOKU | CRYPTO EMPLOYMENT SOLUTION<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/toku">https://bankless.cc/toku</a> </p> <p>🛞MANTLE | MODULAR LAYER 2 NETWORK<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/Mantle">https://bankless.cc/Mantle</a> </p> <p>💸 CRYPTO TAX CALCULATOR | USE CODE BANK30<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/CTC">https://bankless.cc/CTC</a> </p> <p>🦄UNISWAP | ON-CHAIN MARKETPLACE<br /> <a href= "https://bankless.cc/uniswap">https://bankless.cc/uniswap</a> </p> <p>------<br /> TIMESTAMPS<br /> <br /> 0:00 Intro<br /> 7:15 MEV & Oracle Foundations <br /> 11:19 Why Solving MEV is Important<br /> 21:16 High-Level Patterns <br /> 28:19 The Oval Mechanism <br /> 42:23 MEV Share Parameters <br /> 48:36 Decentralization of the MEV Share <br /> 54:30 Auction Length<br /> 56:08 Oval B/D Adoption <br /> 58:05 Uniswap v4 <br /> 1:02:31 Oval Cut Upside<br /> 1:05:45 Future Questions to be Answered <br /> 1:08:42 Closing & Disclaimers </p> <p>------<br /> RESOURCES</p> <p>What is SUAVE?

It’s an investment management company (think mutual funds, ETFs) that manages over $1.5 Trillion in assets. This is what we in crypto affectionately refer to as TradFi and they recently came out with a BTC ETF and have big plans for future tokenization.
