Description:
During the Global Financial Crisis in 2008, our financial infrastructure failed.
GovernĂ‚Âments bailed out the very institutions that let the economy down. This episode spurred a serious rethink of our financial system. Does it make any sense that it takes two days to settle a stock transaction? Why do retailers, operating on razor thin margins, have to pay 3% for every customer credit card swipe? Why does it take two days to transfer money from a bank account to a brokerage”or any other company? Why are savings rates miniscule or negative? Why is it so difficult for entrepreneurs to get financĂ‚Âing at traditional banks?
In DeFi and the Future of Finance, Campbell R. Harvey, Ashwin Ramachandran and Joey Santoro, introduce the new world of DecenĂ‚Âtralized Finance. The book argues that the current financial landscape is ripe for disĂ‚Âruption and we are seeing, in real time, the reinvention of finance.
The authors provide the reader with a clear assessment of the problems with the current financial system and how DeFi solves many of these problems. The essence of DeFi is that we interact with peers”there is no brick and mortar and all of the associated costs. Savings and lending are reinvented. Trading takes place with algorithms far reĂ‚Âmoved from traditional brokerages.
The book conducts a deep dive on some of the most innovative protocols such as Uniswap and Compound. Many of the companies featured in the book you might not have heard of”however, you will in the future.
As with any new technology, there are a myriad of risks and the authors carefully ca

Excellent leveling blocks for our (heavy) Sprinter van
Size: 10.5' x 10.5", Color: Gray, Size: 10.5' x 10.5", Color: Gray
This review is for the FasTen XL 10 pack (10.5" × 10.5", 10 ea.).
We have a 2024 AWD Sprinter van that's been fully converted to a Class B camper. Fully loaded, the van weighs ~ 8,650 lbs, and sits on 265-mm-wide (10.4-inches wide) BF Goodrich AT KO2 tires. The width of the tires were a driving factor in deciding to purchase the XL-sized blocks instead of the standard blocks. In addition, each wheel carries more than a ton of weight, especially in the rear. To be honest, I had my doubts about how well these plastic blocks would stand up to such loads.
I am happy to report that after three weeks of daily use on both dirt and paved surfaces, these blocks have performed very well, showing no signs of cracking or deforming. While in use, the blocks sometimes appear to be bent (and possibly they are, but this could also be an illusion). Nonetheless, when stowing them, the blocks are perfectly flat and stack nicely for easy storage in the van's equipment box. Just knock off the dirt and pebbles, stack them up using the convenient handle, and you're ready to go.

Leveling blocks
Size: 8.5" x 8.5", Color: Yellow
I used these on my first RV camping trip. I was on a not very level site and these worked well to level my camper. They worked so well I ordered another set. The handle is great at keeping the blocks together.
