DeFi atrajo 41 veces más capital en 2022 que en 2020... y la tendencia continúa.
La mayor parte del efectivo de esta semana se destinó a finanzas descentralizadas (DeFi), infraestructura de cadena de bloques y empresas de NFT, una tendencia que ha sido constante durante el último año.
Finance and investing can be overwhelming, confusing and sometimes just mind-blowing.
One such concept recently on-trend was Rehypothecation.

ETH's staking ratio isn't too great compared to other chains and a few reasons include:
- High risk associated with the inability to withdraw stake
- Capital inefficiency of having >32ETH.

1. Midas Investments launched in 2021 as a Ce(De)Fi app that delivers a fixed yield on cryptocurrencies.
It was one of the few products that delivered a very high yield on BTC, ETH, and stablecoins.
BTC - 17% APY
ETH - 23% APY
USDT/USDC - 19% APY

2. The problem with such CeFi fixed yield products is transparency. As a user, you never know where the yield is coming from
According to the founder, the source of the Midas yield was the "Algo" and DeFi
There is not much info on the Algo apart from that it's "trending"

a). Cross-chain swaps with the lowest swap fees
b). High liquidity provision with single-sided staking.

With Hosp's history in TenX and Lyoness, many have wondered if this is the next Cefi rugpull.
Interestingly, CakeDefi is compared to other defunct lenders on their own website. Up to 23.9% APY!

What happens in a centralized exchange is that they are the custodian of your money.
If you want to liquidate your holdings, they need to give you PERMISSION to withdraw. Much like a bank.
