TN Lee is the CoFounder of Pendle Finance and a CoFounding member of Kyber Network. In this episode, we explain Pendle Finance and provide a rare guide to DeFi yield trading strategies within the increasingly popular protocol. Pendle was a breakout star in DeFi during the doldrums of the crypto bear market, and if you listen to the ethos behind TN Lee, you'll soon understand why. Pendle aims to reimagine the traditional finance interest derivative market, worth over $400 trillion in notional value, but instead as a trustless DeFi money lego, where anyone with a crypto wallet can execute yield strategies such as earning fixed yield or longing the stETH yield rate. We would highly recommend watching the podcast here on Youtube for rich visual examples, which brings many of these yield trading strategies to life with screensharing on the Pendle app. ------ 🔗 Essential Show Links 🔗 ► Subscribe on Youtube: https://youtube.com/@defidad ► Subscribe on Apple: https://tinyurl.com/edgepod ► Subscribe on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/edgepodspotify ► Subscribe on Linktree: https://linktr.ee/edge_pod ► Follow DeFi Dad: https://twitter.com/DeFi_Dad ► Follow Nomatic: https://twitter.com/Nomaticcap ► Learn about DeFi and Web3: http://defidad.com/ ------ The Edge Podcast Sponsor Resources ⚖️ KYBERSWAP | DEX AGGREGATOR, AMM, AND KYBER AI TRADING ANALYTICS 🏗️ MANTLE | HIGH-PERFORMANCE ETHEREUM L2 WITH MODULAR DESIGN, LOW FEES, AND HIGH SECURITY 🥑 INSTADAPP | THE NEW AVOCADO SMART CONTRACT WALLET ⛩️ UTOPIA | PAYROLL AND EXPENSE MANAGEMENT FOR DAOS 🙋‍♀️ Interested to sponsor The Edge Podcast?
