DeFi Doesn’t Remove Trust — It Engineers It
DeFi made yield feel more transparent, at least at first glance. Capital should focus on long term yield rather than short term gains But seeing the yield clearly is very different from understanding its source. What matters is not only what a strategy pays in theory, but what survives implementation.

Returns appear effortless, almost automatic. There’s little explanation behind the numbers — just a promise of passive income.
