Feeling nostalgic? Let's delve into some DeFi archaeology with my first banger article, now over five years old. It walks readers through farming strategies that were barely starting then. Starts with a comprehensive explainer on gas and the need to consider it in returns accounting. One of the highlights of the article that blew up quite a few brains back then was a @CurveFinance x @synthetix_io strategy that achieved four layers of yield - the yieldburger. It may not seem significant to you now, but back then it was considered insane. This burger alone onboarded dozens to DeFi. Back then, the space was so small that it was easy to get input from the figureheads. I recall organizing events for Monolith, featuring all the brilliant minds of then and now (@newmichwill, @evankuo, @StaniKulechov, etc.). It was trivially easy to reach out to them: they were just happy to have a stage to geek out on. & @Jrag0x was already on top of the meme game Simpler times. I'm simply glad I was there; it's like watching a kid grow. As we're exiting the teenage phase, it provides me with tons of insights on where it's heading.
