Looking Ahead at the Future of Digital Capital Markets with Brent Xu

On this episode of the DIVI Crypto Podcast our host Steve McGarry is joined by Brent Xu, the Founder and CEO at Umee. To start the show Brent talks about his introduction into the world of crypto, and how an early class on bitcoin taught by Campbell Harvey changed his mindset on everything. Brent expands on what the mission behind Umee is and what exactly they are trying to accomplish with their platform. Steve asks Brent to further explain what rehypothecation means to the audience, and how that pertains to bitcoin. Brent also talks about Umee using IBC, and why he believes it is the winning route as opposed to other bridges. Umee is the first borrowing and lending platform aimed at offering universal cross-chain DeFi functionality that combines the strengths of blockchain architecture with the fundamentals of traditional debt markets. Umee plans to replicate the $200 trillion global debt capital markets using open source code, crypto primitives and web3 technology, while constructing a universal yield curve and enabling a foundation for a modern monetary policy that is globally unified, transparent and decentralized. - Twitter @Umee_crosschain- https://twitter.com/umee_crosschain - Website - https://umee.cc/ - LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/brent-xu-ba698315/ - LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/umee-network/ – DIVI is creating the world's first closed-loop, vertically-integrated cryptocurrency ecosystem.
