We sit down with Kain Warwick, founder of the major DeFi project Synthetix and a true pioneer in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space. Kain has significantly influenced Ethereum's DeFi ecosystem from the early days. Besides leading Synthetix, he's also ventured into exciting new territories with his latest project Infinex and he is a partner at venture capital firm Bodhi Ventures.

We debate how DeFi can beat Binance, seamless onchain experiences, low float / high FDV coins, his investment approach AND we uncover the mystery behind the meme investor hat. Tune in to see how DeFi is evolving!

Throughout the episode, Kain discusses his journey from the US to Australia, shares his insights on the current state and future of DeFi, and introduces us to his latest venture, Infinex. This new platform promises a seamless, cross-chain wallet experience that supports multiple blockchains like Ethereum and Solana, eliminating common crypto hurdles such as multiple wallets, seed phrases, and bridging.

Kain delves into the specifics of Infinex, including its innovative approach to eliminating gas fees and integrating a user-friendly funds recovery system. We also explore why Infinex chose to launch on Solana and discuss broader trends in token distribution and sales within the crypto market.

To wrap up, we pivot to Kain's role in venture capital through Bodhi Ventures, exploring what he looks for in potential investments.
