The Return of Aave | Stani Kulechov

Coming off the heels of Aave’s huge v3 release a couple weeks ago, we wanted to bring on Founder and CEO, Stani Kulechov to unpack it for us. Stani is also the Founder of Lens Protocol, a permissionless, composable, & decentralized social graph that might just be the future of Web3 social platforms. 

How are Aave and Lens Protocol bringing this inevitable future to reality sooner than expected?  What is the current state of the DeFi landscape? Buckle up because Stani will unpack these questions and so much more.
