- Thanks, @stani.lens ! Obviously a big fan of the work you've done so far and appreciate your thoughtful response on this. I do agree that DeFi (in its current state) is likely not the onboarding platform for the next billion, whereas something much more along the lines of Lens/everything being built on top is. What I've found throughout the research thus far (and I'm about to post a compilation of some of the folks I've spoke with, and will be sharing much of my findings across the Lens ecosystem): is that there is the need for easy onboarding that takes into account social and environmental contexts, that does provide incentives that immediately enhance people's lives, and of course are fun and engaging! DeFi, along other elements of the ecosystem will come after that, and I'm excited to see GHO continue to unfold, I think there is a massive need for a decentralized payments system at the global scale. Thus far, the closest thing I've come across that actually serves its purpose (and is being adopted already on-the-ground) is the BTC LN - which is adopted relatively widely in El Salvador among other Latin American countries, including my home country of Guatemala.
I'll reach out and look forward to diving in further with you and the team :)
- Wow! Congrats Marcus!
