The Case for Private Credit Onchain | Jake Lynch, L1 Digital — S1 E5
from Centrifuge Conversations · host Centrifuge
Public credit is already one of the most efficient, accessible markets in the world. Jake Lynch, investment researcher at L1 Digital, argues that putting government bonds onchain doesn't make them better — it just gives people new collateral to lever up against. Private credit is where the real opportunity is: fragmented, inaccessible to most investors, and exactly the kind of market blockchain can fix. In this episode he also walks through how DeFi builds credit markets from scratch — and why lending is the heart of any functioning economy.
