Episode notes

Michael owns 48% of the circulating supply of curve. In Ave, there's about 34% of that. So this is very heavy. Michael has very heavy curve. He hasn't sold. I guess maybe bullish for maybe a four seller. But he has been doing something with all of those curves.

A special mid-week episode is in order as we discus the string of events that led to one of the largest risks DeFi has faced in a long time. What happened to Curve, what's at risk, and what can we learn from all of this?

*CORRECTION: The address that exploited the CRV/ETH pool controls .082% of the circulating supply, not the 8% accidentally mentioned in this segment. ------ 🚀Join Ryan & David at Permissionless II in September. https://bankless.cc/GoToPermissionless
