Hey everyone - I’m Scott, co-founder of Concourse Open Community, a growing collection of people from all different backgrounds working on building user-friendly tools for the decentralized ecosystem.
One area I’m especially excited about is decentralized finance (or DeFi). It’s been awesome to watch DeFi projects gain real traction over recent months, and the growth shows no sign of slowing.
We built DeFi Pulse as a place for tracking that growth. This is just the first product iteration, so follow us for progress and upgrades, and please tell us what you like (or don’t) or what features you want to see added (we’ve got a list going from some great early feedback from the Ethereum community). And if you want to get involved or learn more about Concourse, just reach out to any of us in our Discord (https://discord.gg/eJVtJXR). Everybody’s welcome!
Yep, definite a bit light on the decentralized exchange section. I think it might have to do with how to define “locked” under different use cases — for decentralized lending / bridged assets / layer2 payment channels, it looks like defi pulse is defining “locked” as one-side liquidity pool, whereas derivatives might be two-sided? If so, then decentralized exchanges should also be defined as two-sided orderbook as “locked”
DeFi Pulse is great for some upfront news. Easy to visit on mobile if you need on-the-go news and want to explore something outside your typical feed. They used to have a projects directory but I cannot find it any longer.
