Today on the show, we’re talking about Oval, a new DeFi primitive that Hart Lambur from UMA is introducing to the world of DeFi’s biggest lending markets. Billions of dollars have been liquidated from protocols like Aave, Compound, and MakerDAO over the years, and these liquidations have been extremely inefficiently priced, due to reasons! Reasons that we will discuss here on the show today.  Hasu also joins us on this conversation today to discuss the way that MEV share from Flashbots is a part of this conversation, and he helps illuminate what this means for DeFi going forward as a whole. ------ ⛓️ Visit dydx.exchange to learn about dYdX Chain https://dydx.zone/3SfJTP7  ------ 🎧 Listen On Your Favorite Podcast Player:  https://bankless.cc/Podcast  ------ BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: 🐙KRAKEN | MOST-TRUSTED CRYPTO EXCHANGE https://k.xyz/bankless-pod-q2    ⁠  🔗CELO | CEL2 COMING SOON https://bankless.cc/Celo    🗣️TOKU | CRYPTO EMPLOYMENT SOLUTION https://bankless.cc/toku    🛞MANTLE | MODULAR LAYER 2 NETWORK https://bankless.cc/Mantle    💸 CRYPTO TAX CALCULATOR | USE CODE BANK30 https://bankless.cc/CTC  🦄UNISWAP | ON-CHAIN MARKETPLACE https://bankless.cc/uniswap  ------ TIMESTAMPS   0:00 Intro 7:15 MEV & Oracle Foundations  11:19 Why Solving MEV is Important 21:16 High-Level Patterns  28:19 The Oval Mechanism  42:23 MEV Share Parameters  48:36 Decentralization of the MEV Share  54:30 Auction Length 56:08 Oval B/D Adoption  58:05 Uniswap v4  1:02:31 Oval Cut Upside 1:05:45 Future Questions to be Answered  1:08:42 Closing & Disclaimers  ------ RESOURCES What is SUAVE?

✨ DEBRIEF | Ryan and David unpacking the episode: https://bankless.com/debrief-e-acc-beff-jezos   One guest, two identities. Beff Jezos (Guillaume Verdon) is a founding father of the e/acc movement, a physicist, a quantum researcher, and the founder of an AI startup called Extropic. Beff thinks AI doomers are not only wrong, but they’re taking humanity in the worst possible direction. Growth. Acceleration. Progress. These are the core pillars of the e/acc movement. Instead of slowing down on AI progress, Beff explains why we should be speeding up.  ------ 🎧Listen On Your Favorite Podcast Player  https://bankless.cc/Podcast    ------ BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: 🐙KRAKEN | MOST-TRUSTED CRYPTO EXCHANGE https://k.xyz/bankless-pod-q2    ⁠  🔗CELO | CEL2 COMING SOON https://bankless.cc/Celo    🗣️TOKU | CRYPTO EMPLOYMENT SOLUTION https://bankless.cc/toku    🛞MANTLE | MODULAR LAYER 2 NETWORK https://bankless.cc/Mantle    💸 CRYPTO TAX CALCULATOR | USE CODE BANK30 https://bankless.cc/CTC  🦄UNISWAP | ON-CHAIN MARKETPLACE https://bankless.cc/uniswap   ------ TIMESTAMPS  0:00 Intro 7:15 Why Pseudonym 15:01 The e/acc Pil 31:54 Fume 36:25 Beff’s Beliefs 39:39 Defining e/acc 40:52 The Dangers of AI? 52:05 Why We’re Here & The e/acc Religion? 58:19 Thermodynamics & Life  1:06:16 Maximizing Human Happiness?  1:16:25 Forgetting Society’s Bottom Half  1:23:00 Cancer Also Grows? 1:29:01 AI Regulation 1:33:09 Social Media’s Mistake   1:36:30 AI Bill of Rights  1:38:26 Domesticating AI 1:41:00 Biggest Threats Against e/acc  1:43:43 AI Humans vs. Humans  1:46:09 e/acc vs. Decels…Violence?  1:49:09 Beff’s Thoughts on Crypto 1:54:36 Beff’s Company - Extropic 1:58:18 Closing & Disclaimers  ------ RESOURCES Beff Jezos https://twitter.com/BasedBeffJezos  Guillaume Verdon https://twitter.com/GillVerd   Extropic https://twitter.com/Extropic_AI   AI Safety Podcasts - The Decels Eliezer Yudkowsky https://youtu.be/gA1sNLL6yg4   Connor Leahy https://youtu.be/pMoVsM1EWR0  Paul Christiano https://youtu.be/GyFkWb903aU   Nate Sores  https://youtu.be/Ymjb3SkElco   ------ Not financial or tax advice.
