    Jon and Kerp talk about the gradual then sudden role of bitcoin as a corporate, and eventually sovereign reserve asset.  Why is Bitcoin so hard to explain to someone without sounding like a crazy person?  If DeFi were to make it to primetime before the next big correction, how could that happen?

    Want to ask a question, we're @defi_download on Twitter and subscribe or send us a voice note at https://anchor.fm/defi-download

    We take a moment to officially recognize the ETH 2.0 Beacon chain going live before acknowledging it is very technically above our pay grade and moving on.

    A brief overview of Gitcoin and gitcoin grants with matching - Round 8 kicking off tomorrow!  Support the podcast here: https://gitcoin.co/grants/1267/defi-download-podcast

    Compound had $90m in debt liquidated over the weekend when maybe it could have been avoided.  What does this mean for oracles and keepers that keep DeFi running?

    Main topic of the week is what a merger means in DeFi, using the recent announcements of Yearn mergers and partnerships with Pickle, Cover, Cream, and Sushi.
