Community support is by far one of the biggest factors for the success of a project.
What has the team #defi has planned on increasing the user experience?

#Defi is everywhere, in fact, taking over the whole market which is already in its evolution stage. New people scamming using the defi projects, what do you think will not hurt already shaking the reputation of crypto as it is very easy to be used for terrorist activities

Question 1: Shuja Hashmi:

DeFi is a relatively new item and some say it is a fad. But to me, DeFi is giving us a new future to handle finance. So let’s not be unheartened by YAM and give a bad name to the whole DeFi market.

Anndy Lian:
Whether YAM is a pure error or they do it on purpose, I don’t know. But I do know that if a project pumps too high in a short time, this is not sustainable.

An average person should not invest in DeFi. They should know what is DeFi before putting their hard earned money into it.

Right now it is the bull market (in my own opinion), we need to manage the risk properly. We should not overleverage ourselves and believe that a token could be pumped to 1000% returns.

So if we control our greed, then we will most likely fall into the trap of fake DeFi.

Question 2: Jack

Defi can change real life of people’s to help like in Fiat market?

This is a double-edged sword.

Anndy Lian:
While many complained about fiat, many love fiat because they know how to navigate in the financial system.

So for a straight forward answer: Yes DeFi will change our lives. CeFi and DeFi are complementary to each other.

So in order for DeFi to make it big, we need more decent projects, better people running them and not let history repeats itself by allowing the traditional banking people to ruin this again.

Question 3: Mahathi

What about JUSTSwap?

Anndy Lian:
In one of the article where the editor asked for my opinion, I said that ETH is taking the lead and all others are chasing his tail.

This is still the case.

But Tron and its ecosystem may be able to change some of the Defi problems that we are facing right now. Gas fees

If you are into Uniswap and all, you will notice that the gas fees are very high right now.

Well many of us are able to pay it since the possible returns are high enough to cover the cost.

BUT!!!

I cannot accept the fact that when I pay a high gas fee and the transaction still fail.

Imagine each transaction fail will means that we pay around $5 for a fail transaction.

It is not right to charge for fail transactions.

And since it takes time, we lose gas fees and also opportunity cost.

This is a double loss for many of us.

So I do hope to see JUSTswap making a difference in it

Blockcast.cc: Thanks, Anndy for his time. Stay on Asia Blockchain Community to learn more about blockchain. See you soon.
