In this week's interview we have an in-depth discussion with Guy, the founder of Ethena Protocol. Guy discusses the challenges of scaling Ethena to billions in USD supply, the important role of Bitcoin and Ethereum derivatives as collateral, and how Ethena is able to generate the highest yielding USD-denominated asset in crypto. Additionally, we touch on risk management, governance, and the critical role centralized exchanges could play in Ethena's future. Hope you enjoy!

In today's interview, Philip, the founder of Elixir, discusses how his project aims to democratize access to liquidity provisioning on order book exchanges.
