Piers will largely maintain that a single blockchain or public ledger is the only long-term potential for DeFi.

But one of the biggest problems in cryptocurrency is that all of these decentralized blockchains are like isolated islands. You have the bitcoin blockchain, the ethereum blockchain, the cardano blockchain. And to move from one island to another you have to rely on gatekeepers: centralized exchanges. They can deny you access, seize your funds, they can be shut down by governments or forced to delist certain coins. There have been experiments with decentralized exchanges, but none of them have achieved the success of something like Uniswap -- a...2021-05-1610 minThe Pomp PodcastThe Pomp Podcast#540: Chad Barraford on Cross-Chain SwapsChad Barraford is a software engineer and the Technical Lead for THORchain.  In this conversation, we discuss THORchain, how it works, why cross-chain swaps are important, how ShapeShift adopted the system, and what the impact on DeFi will be.  ======================= Circle is a global financial technology firm that enables businesses of all sizes to harness the power of stablecoins and public blockchains for payments, commerce and financial applications worldwide.
