The Edge Podcast YIELD TALKS: How Coinbase Is Supercharging DeFi With cbBTC
In this live recording we produce weekly on Twitter/X, we hosted a panel on how Coinbase is supercharging DeFi with cbBTC, with special guest Lukas Staniszewski, Group Product Lead of Crypto and cbBTC PM, along with respected DeFi builders from Aerodrome (Alex Cutler), Morpho (Merlin Egalite), Instadapp Fluid (DMH), Moonwell (Luke Youngblood), and DeFinitive (Dennis Qian). Lukas kindly shares the vision and mission behind why Coinbase built this new wrapped version of BTC while our panel of builders shine on a light on how we as users might leverage our cbBTC across their DeFi apps.
