Yearn Finance, a prominent decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol, retweeted a comment highlighting an emerging trend in the DeFi space. The tweet suggests that launching a lending market immediately after releasing a new token has become a common practice among protocols. However, Yearn Finance expressed skepticism about this claim. The protocol also shared its perspective on the future of finance, stating that it 'won't belong to anybody but everybody,' implying a decentralized and inclusive approach.
Having a lending market as soon as a protocol releases a token is the new meta.
