How to Earn Yield Through NFT Strategies (Without Doing the Work) With Spice Finance.
In this episode, you will learn how Spice Finance (https://twitter.com/spice_finance) aggregates NFT lending to earn its users handsome yields on their assets... Grant is joined by Shreddy (https://twitter.com/shreddydefi) and Oogway (https://twitter.com/oogway_defi). We like to think of this as a yield aggregator for NFTs similar to how you can deposit your assets into Yearn Finance and earn off the back of their custom strategies.
