5. The two camps discuss the future of finance in crypto: the centralized finance team and the decentralized finance projects discuss the speed of innovation and how cefi and defi are crossing.
6. Defi has historically been whale heavy, how do we bring mass adoption to defi?
7. Defi products is getting more complicated– is it ever going to replace CeFi? does that require sacrifice on the decentralization part? or do we see CeFi really diverging and setting off an entire different pace from Defi?
