Bearish:

• $TRADFI - Traditional financial infrastructure is outdated, slow, and extractive compared to DeFi alternatives, with legacy systems holding back innovation.

  • “DeFi and on chain finance is just fundamentally better in so many ways than the traditional securities market, especially the infrastructure developed for a pre digital era”

    Jake·57:11

    Jake·57:26
• $CEFI - Many stablecoin businesses are destroying their business models through unsustainable growth strategies and paying for distribution without product-market fit.

  • “many stablecoin business today are destroying their business at the outset”

    MC·50:14

  • “you're seeing a lot of players who are trying to just achieve a certain level of distribution and are paying for people who don't really actually want their stablecoin, don't really want to use it. And so I don't think that will last”

    MC·48:59

  • “many of the branded stablecoins haven't gotten tremendous, haven't gotten that much adoption and are, I think, not necessarily going to pay for themselves”
