Infinex Account launch: Speedrun the Waitlist
Infinex was born with a mission to bridge the UX gap between centralized finance and DeFi. The definition of success could be stated simply: if a CeFi user could safely access onchain products via Infinex without having to learn anything new (transaction signing, gas, bridges, wallets) then Infinex would have done it’s job. We’ve made significant progress in the months since, and have now reached a critical milestone with the launch of the Infinex Account. This article will provide context ar...

Governing the gateway to DeFi
Before designing a governing framework for something that hasn’t been built before, it is worth taking some time to consider what that thing could become. The forces that will develop interests in the thing as it grows should be identified early, and perhaps included in the initial framework. This is not only to keep a balance of power, but to ensure incentives will exist for the right forces to drive the thing to it’s highest potential. Infinex needs a governing framework, and so we should t...

Trust and transparency in DeFi’s UX layer
Innovations in crypto user experience have lagged behind innovations in crypto infrastructure, and this makes sense. The pressing need has historically been to scale Ethereum – it doesn’t make much sense to improve the UX of an application that is already too expensive to use. But the advent of layer two scaling and account abstraction are dovetailing into a pivotal moment for the space, where the onus is finally shifting onto the user experience. The puzzle pieces have been laid, and the nex...
