DeFi Workshop Part 2: Yield Farming

DeFi. Yield Farming. Liquidity Mining. Have you been hearing these terms in 2020, but aren’t clear on what they mean?

In the second part of this two-part workshop series we will look at the new hype around Yield Farming and what the good intentions are around governance as well as the fallbacks of an emergent ecosystem being able to spin up a random token for yield scams.
