👨🏫Learn to DeFi: A Visual Guide
Hello Defiers! For those of us in the U.S., today is a holiday. After stuffing our faces with BBQ and washing it down with light American beer while watching gunpowder explode in many colors in the sky 🎆, we need a day to recover.
But for our degens across the rest of the globe, we wanted to offer a visual guide to the definitions and data sources you need as you’re understanding and exploring this new world of decentralized finance. Read on!

🛠️ DeFi 101: A Visual Guide to Definitions and Data Sources
Our very own Robin Schmidt, who you know from The Defiant YouTube, created this slideshow in May for CoinDesk’s Consensus 2021 conference. Last Friday, he presented it again in a livestream that you can check out here.

The Defiant wants to hear from you!
What do you want to learn? To give you all a sneak peek, we’re building a series of courses to take you down the crypto rabbit hole! Maybe you need a better handle on the basics - private keys and wallets and all these dank memes. Or maybe you just want to stake one token, just one, and watch it earn some interest (oooo ahhhh). Or maybe you’re ready to put your spurs and cowboy hat and really jump into the Wild West of yield farming for insane gains.
Whatever it is, we’re interested in teaching and learning together.
